Hi, thanks for the video, it was funny to watch! For some lore explanation, since you felt a bit lost: - the Sun, ancestor of the three characters, cast light on Aphrodite when she was trapped, with her lover, in a net forged by her husband, revealing to all the Gods the affair. Humiliated, she decided to make all the female descendants of the Sun unhappy in love; - so, Pasiphaë (red character), fell in love with a bull; Ariadne (pink character) fell in love with a man (Theseus) who abandoned her on an isle only to marry her sister; Phaedra, the sister in question (purple character), fell in love with her step-son, Hippolytus, the son of Theseus and another woman (yes, Theseus was a womaniser defvgfe); - so, at this point in the story, Phaedra confessed her love to Hippolytus, which she didn't want to for obvious incestuous reasons (+ Hippolytus hates love, but the sequel, Son of the Woods, expands more on this if you're curious, as it displays Hippolytus' perspective instead); desperate and shameful, she poisoned herself, and the game is her slowly dying from the poison
Also thanks for the compliments on the art and I agree: the voice acting is excellent, Justine did a superb work as the three characters! And I'm glad I made you discover this myth!!
Wow, I am glad you replied with the explanation! Thank you so much for watching. I'll have to keep an eye on future games because I haven't delved into this type of stuff but it's pretty interesting and I am happy to see you're passionate about it enough to make your own works on it. Keep up the great game devving!
I really like how the myth was told!! Also, the use of the sprite by changing the colors to represent each daughter is very clever. That's so cool AHHH!! The art and the voice acting were both amazing as well! Great game :D
Hey, thank you for your very nice feedback! I'm very happy you enjoyed the game, I had a lot of fun with coding the colour feature too! And yes, the voice acting is really excellent here, haha! Thanks for supporting me!

The art was beautiful and I wasn't really well versed in the myth, I was happy I got to play it. The voice acting is really great as well!

Just realized that I forgot to drop an actual comment LOL ^^;
But as I said earlier, great game Chim! Interesting myth you've drawn from and well executed by everyone involved. Yay you!! <3
Ha ha, don't worry, Tyme! I love this myth (and especially Racine's depiction!). Thanks for the comment, yay you too!
