This vampire design is honestly so pretty to look at, I could stare at Silas for hours! I do enjoy a short game every now and then so this was perfect! A sweet ending if you choose to live. Loved the world building too! How thinbloods are rejected by the other prettier vampires who look more human than more bat like Silas. A sad fate to fall upon. Anyways great game!

Cool character design 🦇

Made me want to see/know more, which is exactly what I love about short games

Such wonderful worldbuilding in only 1k words

Silas' character design is honestly much more interesting than the pretty vampires he refers to, most probably because of how unique it looks while also keeping the semblance of what a "normal human" looks like. I like how, despite Silas' appearance, he's kind and empathetic to the dying MC and even gives them options he'll carry out for you. Silas must know what it feels like to suffer given his appearance and the discrimination he faces, but honestly it's amazing he keeps his empathy to other people, or maybe it's to "thinbloods" like him.

I honestly find it cool and interesting, I hope that MC is able to live a good life in that community as a newly turned vampire and help around, it's actually kind of cozy in a twisted sense but it does. Amazing work on the art and the story, it's very peaceful, something you'd want moments away from your death.

Nice character's design! And do I read too much into his clothes because I already imagine how their society would look like haha (added it to what he told about their lifestyle). Would love for you to show more of the lore (if there's any opportunity) though I already want to thank for sharing this story with us. Great job.

Really cool game! The character has such a unique design, couldn't took my eyes of him. WELL DONE! :) <3

This was lovely! I really enjoyed the dreamlike atmosphere and tenderness of the scenario despite its bleakness :3 And your character design is amazing as always!

Amazing story and art!!! I love playing games that allow me to imagine and visualize the story. Great game!!!

I would love for you to make more of this

I love the character art--Silas is so expressive and drawn with wonderful sensitivity. (Also I like his sweater.) And the writing has a real naturalistic feel to it. I'd enjoy reading more about these unusual vampires.

oh, it was so lovely (not the aspect that we are dying but the game itself xD), the artwork of Silas is beautiful (his eyes are the most captivating thing :D) and the music is so bittersweet with a hint of dread and sadness :D oh I wish you would make more than 1000 words, a whole game where you can find more friends like Silas and romance them (and romance Silas :) ) xD

Thank you so much! I'm planning a game where Silas is a love interest and you get to meet his friends :) The protagonist won't be this game's "buddy", but they'll make a return still.

Neat idea. I think there definitely is potential for a longer story in this world.

Absolutely beautiful and vibrant artwork with a haunting and melancholic story within 1000 words. The world and 'species' are so interesting as well! Will def recommend!

It takes real skill imo to pull off an engrossing VN in 1000 words - and you definitely did that! Kudos. :D

(+1)

Really enjoyed the atmosphere and lore - would definitely love a longer version in the future!

(+1)

The atmosphere is very well written; the pain we were supposed to feel and the agony of the new fate. I'm curious about what will happen next! Thank you for making this, it's captivating!

The vibes of this game are so good, they make me want to curl up with an urban fantasy book and keep going ha. You did so much with such small animations, I'm really impressed. I loved the final choice, too, and I wish I could spend more time in this world! Really cool, thanks for sharing.

(+1)

Thank you so much! I plan to make more games in this setting so it gives me so much motivation to read this, haha

Nice jam game. I really like the idea of hierarchy of vampires based on their blood; was I understanding correctly that we became a thinblood because our sire was one? 

I would definitely be interested in experiencing more VN's from this universe!

Thank you for playing! Yes, the idea is that there's different degrees of being a thinblood and the blood dilutes with each generation; so the sire is a thinblood who isn't quite as messed up as the protagonist :')

wow! I don't usually write comments, but this is really something. this boy has great potential, and I also like the concept and idea of the device of the world. 

thanks for such amazing work!

(+1)

Ah I'm really happy you enjoyed it enough to want to write a comment :) thank you so much!

I loved this!! It gave wonderful Vampire: the Masquerade vibes.

Silas, you cutie❤️

Thank you <3 I do love VtM!

Great work as always! Would love to learn more about Silas and the other thinbloods some day

(+2)

thank you! I actually have a future VN planned with Silas as a love interest and other things in this setting :)

(+2)

I'm so in love with the character design and worldbuilding! I love the concept on not focusing on the stereotypical vampire, but the other ones that might not fit the standard. He's also such a cutie!

(+1)

thank you! I'm so glad you like him haha

ahhhhh! now I want to know more! great work for something so short!

thank you <3
