This has NSFW content, so please bear that in mind.
When an unknown event wipes out humanity, people all over the world find themselves in the eerie town of Gallows Crossing, where magic runs rampant for a select few and memories turn out to be the downfall of many. The protagonist, an expert bounty hunter known as the Summoner, is pulled headfirst into the enigmatic origin of this cursed town.
Fate will force him to face taxing trials that will test his emotional, spiritual, and physical fortitude, all the while trying to save a dear friend and find out what led to the origin of this town.
Things are not what they seem. Will the hidden ones in the dark devour you, or will you tame the abyss?
I will be extra attentive to feedback. I will eventually work more on the summary as things get added, Implement a Patreon, Discord, and all that. Feedback is welcomed and encouraged.

The art looks really nice.
But there's going to eventually be an option for human cock Stygian?
This had me hooked all through out the build, I cant wait to see where it goes!
It started off in a pretty impactful and engaging way. It's refreshing to see MCs that can fight and fend for themselves. All the characters had really distinct and cool personalities too, and I really liked the world-building.
Looking forward for more ^^
Man this had me on the edge of my seat throughout, what a strong start! Can't wait to see more of this :)
So far this was one of the best first impressions I've ever had of a story, very straight to the point and still managed to explain how this "world" works in an easy and practical way, so far I don't have much to say about the secondary characters since little was shown in relation to them, but I must say that I really liked the MC, experienced and not the typical "helpless protagonist", I think the only thing that disappoints in him is in the physical aspect, this thing of characters without appearance often ruins the immersion of the story because I can't mentally visualize a character that doesn't have a single physical description... not even hair, but other than that, this is a VN with one of the greatest potential I've ever seen and really makes me anxious every second I read it, it's been a long time since I felt like this reading a story, great work.
I love this kind of Feedback! I'm really glad this has managed to grab your interest and hope you enjoy the things to come!
The story is very intriguing and the world building is interesting. The first build really hooked me up.
Honestly, this is one of the examples of a good introductory build for a VN. Already affecting the reader and no boring parts. I am very excited for more.
Stygian is tickling something in my brain. I love and hate him at the same time lol.
Thank you for commenting, it's feedback like this that keeps me going.
Yeah, Stygian is quite the character to say the least. Quite the brain tickler!
Good job on releasing your first build! If I can give any advice, I'd recommend looking into reducing the file size of the project. 850 MB is insanely large for a first release! You can bring that down a lot by converting your sprites from png to webp, as well as using layeredimages instead of having a bunch of full-body sprites. You should also consider removing unused backgrounds and audio tracks to try and trim the fat a bit.
Other than that, this looks very promising! Wishing you good luck!
Holy hell, thank you so much for the tip about converting the files. I'm working on it rn and the improvement is palpable!
Thank you!!
Happy I could be of help! Layered images can be a bit tricky to figure out at first, if you need any help with them the best guide I've found is this one: https://gruntsteel.itch.io/distant-travels/devlog/452114/how-to-set-up-layeredimages-in-renpy-new-sprite-teaser
I'm gonna tackle the layered images a bit down the line but the file extension was such a life server. Thank you ♥️
I like it so far. Looking forward for more.
Thank you for playing, mate!

Ah, so you are challenging me to staring contest!?
The audacity 👀

I-... You got me there, mate. I wasn't expecting that at all, lmao.
