Some of the first impressions of Ace & Aro: One Night Early from itch.io. I am blown away, thank you for the kind words!! 🥲

itch.io reviews for Ace & Aro: One Night Early:

"a vn with ace & aro representation? i loved this!"
"I just started playing, and I love this! I never understood the point of these "story" games, but I felt seen right off the bat. I'm also ace and panromantic, and having the nametag sticker for hidden disabilities... Not gonna lie, I teared up a little. And her art is so pretty! The details, like the ring and such are so awesome. This is going to be like reading manga, I think, a little sad when I finish. But I'm impressed, thank you so much for making this accurate representation!"
"As an aroace person I'm so happy I found this :) Can't wait for the full game!!"
"I absolutely loved playing through this, I felt so seen after the demo and I lowkey teared up bc there is no representation like this :,) This game has captured my heart and I'm so excited for the full release!"
"Learned a lot! Maybe about myself too, because Maya's experiences resonated with me and now that the libido question is cleared up, it really makes me wonder.
Either way, even if you don't think you could be ace or aro, it's absolutely worth checking out.
Can't wait for the full game"

Thank you!!

This is going to be me as well lol. I'm nearly 50hrs in and only done 1.5 routes 🥲 But, same as you, I'm really happy to hear about the new DLC routes because all those characters are so interesting!

Devastating news! Uchikoshi is one of my favourite game developers. This industry just doesn’t care about keeping talent anymore…

Haha, yes! When dubs were truly terrible 😂 I was a big fan of Escaflowne when I was younger and had all the DVDs. Now, I have one of the cels:

I did Theodora first and it took me a while to warm up to them...but it's a pretty cool route! Now, I've started Dietrich's route and his support – Fabio – is one of the best characters in Fire Emblem! This route is more for Three Houses fans IMO, as he feels separate from the other characters.

Sounds good to me! Please do not change the composition, layout or colours of the logo itself, or crop / scale too small. Also leave some space around the edge of the image. If you need a hi-res version, just let me know! :)

Same (although I am only halfway through this path)! I totally misjudged him 😂 Fabio is honestly one of my most favourite Fire Emblem characters ever!

It's simple: when star wars is about "lore" and "darth vader", it's bad. When star wars is about a crocodile with shades that drives a race car, it's good.
