A visual novel narrating the life of Adrien, a creature born of a young child’s nightmares, on its way to a summer vacation. I stopped the game 15 minutes in because I got extremely bored. In more details: the story starts with the description of the trip to the airport and it was way too slow and descriptive for me.

How do you run this on Linux

Hey I got this ages ago and wanted to play it right away but time is hard and then I got a chance to play it and it's REALLY GOOD and cute and fun thank you I want to hug this cute sweet anxious dude

A short visual novel that somehow (despite its length) catches part of that feeling of travelling quite well, especially in the early chapters.

I really, really enjoy this game. It will always have a special place in my heart for its cute storytelling and engaging characters. I wish it got more attention than it has

so i just finished this today. that was. so adorable aaaaaaaaa

(+2)

Thank you for playing!

A wonderful little game about the strangeness of our connections, and the unceasing kindness in all of us. It's clear from minute one that the game was made with love, and that feeling never leaves for even a moment.

By the end, I was thoroughly invested in both the characters, and the world. Worth your time, and absolutely worth your money. Looking forward to checking out the rest of this developer's catalogue.

Super cute visual novel, finished it in one sitting and it was a great experience. I love the art especially, has a certain vibe that just really makes it appealing.

Very sweet, amazing soundtrack and great visuals with a heartwarming cast of characters and story. Absolutely adored it, 11/10. I'll definitely have to replay it again!!

Hi, just wanted to let you know I covered your game recently in my podcast! https://anchor.fm/leogamer/episodes/12-Is-A-Nightmares-Trip-Queer-e13nq5n

(+5)

I played this just recently, and it was a delight. Thanks for making it.

(+3)

aw this was like the cutest thing ever (っ´ω`c)

(+4)

THIS IS EXTREMELY CUTE

Ahem. I love the little hints of history you dropped throughout the story, it makes me want to, like, read a textbook on the history of Natura. Or maybe at least the chapter summaries.

(+2)

There's lots of stuff we wanna flesh out regarding Natura - our future games will be focusing a lot more on that :)

(+5)

I LOVE THE FUZZY LIL MANS WITH ALL HIS ANXIETY AND APPETITE AND INNATE FRIEND-MAKING ABILITIES AND I HOPE ITS NOT THE LAST WE SEE OF ALL THESE WONDERFUL CHARACTERS SORRY FOR THE CAPS I AM JUST VERY IN LOVE 

(+5)

THANK YOU THE GOOD NEWS FOR YOU IS THAT IT WONT BE THE LAST TIME YOULL SEE THIS WORLD AND PROBABLY WONT BE THE LAST TIME YOULL SEE THESE CHARACTERS

this game really hit the spot in a way that i can't fully describe. i remember once having a dream that some essential part of me left in a literal way and that i'd never really be whole again, and that impression stuck with me when i woke up. i didn't expect to find anything that actualized that idea, ever.

(+2)

Main character reminds me of Braixen

I agree , was first thing I thought lmaooo

mixed with mimikyu and renamon

(+4)

I don't remember specifically suggesting Moxie any references for characters beyond being specific about the ears but I can say that it's funny seeing Renamon being brought up since they only recently watched Digimon Tamers (which is a great anime btw)

(+1)

Hey, I just wanted to say that this artwork is stunning, and that I look forward to playing your game :) 

Thanks! We hope you enjoy :)

thanks ..:) but it says 100% off for "stay at home" but can't take it... 

(+1)

It was only available for free for 24 hours, sorry! I can send you a key if you really want to play it

(+1)

Same happened to me, haha. Ur style is very reminiscent of Floraverse, btw! :D

Please DM us on twitter @SKYHOURWORKS and I can sort something out.

Also, that's awesome to hear! Moxie, the game's lead art director is a huge fan of Floraverse.
