Ebon Light

hi! I'm so into the plot already, gosh darn it. I'm wondering if Calipoa is romanceable, or just the guys?

I've stumbled across this game by chance, and... Let's just say I'm amazed by how well-done it is. I adore the artstyle, the storyline and that you can shape main character's personality and have it reflected in various ways (tho I was a bit confused at first by character trait scales being so dark, as it is a bit hard to see, but that's just me nitpicking). Can't wait to play the final version!
Also, I'm amazed that you are doing something so time- and effort-consumig for free. Totally going to donate once I get my paycheck next week!  

Oh, this was  so enjoyable! I defiently want to play the rest of the game when it's released! I really liked the style of the game, the characters and the story is very interesting. Well, done! 

*chokes on coffee * WHAT IS THIS BEAUTY!?!!?! IT'S GORGEOUS!!! finally! finally a new good elven fantasy game! omg PLEASE tell me we can romance vadeyn?!

I love this game so much! The story, characters, dialogue, art, music, everything is perfect! I can't wait for the full version and the fact that it's free is even more unbelievable

I have really enjoyed playing this and can't wait to see how the rest of the story unfolds.

You have done an amazing job with the story line, the dialogue and character interactions.  The backgrounds and sprites are beautiful, and I love how many options there are for mc customization.

I see that you plan on this being free,  and I do appreciate that, however I would be willing to pay for any future games from you. I think you have a talent for making visual novels, and I'd love to see more in the future.

For now I'll be eagerly awaiting the next update!

Will the full finished version be free as well ? I ask actually hoping you charge for it, it's worth money in my eyes.

I want to commend you on the number of dialogue  choices you have provided for the reader, it really feels like I am shaping the story! More than in any other vn I have seen to be honest.  I have already played the demo several times and came across new dialogue each play through. 

I can tell how much work you have put into each route already and I'm so looking forward to the full thing! 

I came across a couple of errors, some of them have already been mentioned by another player. 

One that I don't think has been brought up is this message

[code]
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

Full traceback:

And this:

Full traceback:

when talking to Vadeyn in the cabin, a couple of sentences after I choose the "that's what I want most of all option"

It's not too much of an issue because it goes away when I click "ignore" but I thought I would let you know anyway

Congrats on coming this far, can't wait until 24th or 31th for the full release!
I didn't encounter any bugs per se but I did stumble upon some FPS drops  / lagging throughout the game, mostly during with intense animations (such as with rain).

Found a small bug, in the cabin if you tell Duliae that he will get eaten bu flesh eating elves you get this error:
