I loved the 1.0 of the game already, and the 1.1 v just made it even better! I loved the Guide route addition, and the epilogue was so satisfying to play through. I'd love to see more of the PiP universe, but even if this is the end of the line for these characters (heh, get it, because... because Purgatory...), it was a lovely ride.
Shout out to the artists, sound design, voice actors, etc., too, all MVPs. :D
Aww!! Happy to hear that you'd love to see more of this setting because I kinda feel like the new content opens up for a lot more of potential events... but we'll see what happens. :)
Thank you so much for playing and for your lovely comment! <3
What a lovely game! Excellent writing (correct spelling, grammar etc always makes me happy!), nicely done art and music. I loved the characters! Story was quirky as well as very touching, gameplay was fun and riddles were easy (not a complaint-- it fits the game well). Romance felt a bit rushed, and really wasn't necessary, but the game was done for an otome jam, so I understand. Looking forward to checking out your other titles! Thanks for your hard work on this wonderful game!
Hi! I recently finished Pitstop in Purgatory and really enjoyed the experience. The art and the characters pulled me in from the start. I'll be looking out for the coming updates! If you're up for it, I would love to work on a French translation for the game. Please reach out if you're interested in discussing it further!
I really enjoyed playing thus game!!! It was so good... The art is great, music is fantastic and the characters are so unique and interesting! I actually cried on solo route in the end of it, when talking with Vol, it was so intense and emotional(( omg thank u so much for this game!
What to say? Well, let me start off by saying I really enjoyed this story and I'm kinda like Astrid and don't like riddles since I'm kinda slow to connect dots, nonetheless, I was able to solve them fairly easily and used my brain for the first time since I was born.
The storyline and the way you wrote the characters had me engaged the entire time. You truly gave life or death to the characters. The solo route had me in tears, I hadn't even realized I was crying when she got reunited with her bf. I kinda expected us to have a preview of all the couples after they make it in the end. Each route had me itching to know what was going to happen next.
I do have some questions if you don't mind.
Is there gonna be a route for the guide? If so, I wonder how it's gonna play out considering he might be old or maybe not even a being who can display the affections Astrid would want.
Will you ever show an after-ending? I kinda wonder if the couples stayed together after or if they run into her bf when she's alive because that'd be awkward.
My last question is about the shadows. I noticed in one of your posts that you will be adding more stuff to this. Are we ever going to see how Smiley or Ezrebeth look? Or will that just stay that way as part of the mystery? Anyways, this was a pretty long post but I really enjoyed the story and how fleshed out the characters were.
Hi there! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I'm happy you enjoyed the game and that it moved you to tears, I'm truly humbled to hear that. Thank you so much! :)
Great questions! I'll gladly answer them. :D
Guide route: Yes, this will be added in the content update. The things that you bring up here are all important points that I'm currently working with to make the route engaging and somewhat believable. I think it'll turn out pretty cool!
After-ending: I have no plans to add that since I feel like it would ruin the mystery aspects of the game, but I feel like *if* there is something else, the couples definitely stick together based on the route you chose. Astrid doesn't know as much in the non-solo routes but she doesn't really need to as she's found peace elsewhere.
Shadows: An interesting thing about development is that we originally made shadows in order to make it so the game could have more NPCs, the plan was that the shadows wouldn't be specific characters but instead just faceless NPCs like you'd see in RPGs for example. But then their personalities kinda grew out of that and now I can't envision them any other way lol.
Thanks again for playing and letting me know how you felt about the game, I really appreciate it! :)
Thank you so much for making this wonderful game! I enjoyed the puzzles and riddles immensely, and loved the premise of trying to make peace with your past.
The art and aesthetic was really unique and lovely, I adored the GUI. Especially loved the level of interactivity, something you don't often get with otome games, and that element of it really made the game stand out to me.
Great characters, writing and pacing. Especially with the solo route, that ending got me, man.
PS, I would be lying if I said I wasn't desperately hoping for a romance route for the Guide. I love everything about him, and would like to spend the rest of eternity in his contemptous embrace.
I loved this game! Great characters, concept, and art! <3
I also really loved The Guide, despite my better judgement LOL I think he's my favorite character, even with him being... the way he is to the humans in his care. He's so well written, I just want to know more about him! Though I'm not sure how he would feel about having a route, given his whole... "what is an ant to a man" metaphor.
TLDR great game, i love the guide more than i have any right to

I was also wondering [though this might be a spoiler], is there a way to get into the off-limits area that the sign blocks off in the waiting hall? :0

I need the answer to this riddle 😬
" Look at your items
see them from a name
this is the reason
this is your shame "
Hi! :)
Thank you so much for playing, and for reaching out! <3
You'll be able to solve this by looking in your inventory. The items' names form the answer (in case you want to solve it yourself).
If not, scroll down a bit to find the answer itself:
guilt
Yes thank you i found the answer 👏
Awesome! :)
Enjoy the game! <3

Hi! :)
For that part, use the Strange Bauble on the Intruder and then use it once more on the mirror afterwards.
Feel free to ask for more help if you get stuck again! A walkthrough will be added to the game in the next update.
Thanks so much for playing! <3
No... Walk through...?
It's coming soon as part of the content update. :)
Until then, feel free to tell me where you're stuck and I'll gladly help!

Thank you so much for your kind words. :) Happy that you enjoyed the game, and yes, The Guide sure is something isn't he?! lol ^^
No, there's no way right now to get past that sign, but who knows what future content updates may hold... :)
