If you ever feel stuck, fret not. Your trusty Codex and Partner will be there to guide to the next step in the investigation.

I hope to see more animated, or "exaggerated" poses for the characters, rather than just seeing them standing dead still for a half hour. ( when's the last time someone did that in a sonic game? ) over all, I think that this has great potential, with a very suspicious main character, and good use of side characters from the main series.
the one thing I think would be really cool though, is if instead of a standard turn based battle, reuse the sonic battle format. thats all from me, I can't wait to see more!
Thanks for the review! If you can also please leave a rating, as it helps a lot!
For extra poses for sprites, that's unfortunately dependant on funding as the artists of the team don't work for free. Also, the sprite artist is one person so that would increase his workload even further.
And Sonic Battle fighting is not possible to have in the Ren'py engine. Also, again, it would need a lot more art assets. Since fighting is not the focus of this game, that would be very much not worth it.
Hm, a shader error. That's new... Thanks for the feedback, I'll let you know.
What machine are you playing on?
im playing on a laptop
Thank you very much for reporting the bug! It is now fixed, you should be able to play it all the way to the end no problem now :) Let me know if any other issue arises.

But is it in Spanish? And will Cream be dishing out punches?
Sorry, only English for now... And Cream what. O_O
I found this on their Tumbler seeing that ask Lanolin format they were doing not even knowing that it was leading to a fangame, let alone this polished of one lol. This rocks so far and i hope it gets more eyes on it soon because i want this game to THRIVE! Good luck on this project y'all!
Thank you so much! Yeah I need to probably make it more clear that those are related to this xD Glad you enjoyed it and yes, we all put in a lot of effort into polishing the game :) Please share it with your friends and leave a rating, it helps a lot :D
I kinda want to customize the protagonist fully like say I wanted to make a green hedgehog or a tiger print tuxedo cat but I know that's a bit too innovative for a visual novel
Hah, not really! Coding wise, it'd be very easy to implement. The issue is the art, aka: for each variation you'd need to commission a different sprite. Some things can be re-coloured procedurally in the engine, but not everything.
