Evernight

Honestly one of the best games I have ever played!!!

What a beautiful game with wonderful characters. I absolutely adored it. And I loved the reference to VtM too XD Thank you for making such a wonderful game!!!!

OMG I am soooo in love with this game! It is so good! Aeden's route is definitely my favorite, but I was also pleasantly surprised by Lucas's route! Also the music for this game is SPOT. ON! It is so ephemeral and dreamy and 100% transports you to the world of Faery! Well done! But now I'm sad because like I want morreee! Any chance you'll make a full game in the future?

So, I've never played anything here that was based on a world of fairies, vampires and wolves, I'm so in love with Evernight! The boys were wonderful, I want to talk a bit about the three of them, just my impression, but we all know that the real protagonist is PIX! <3

Aeden: The best romance, that's it. Do I have to say more? It's Aeden for God's sake! He has that dangerous but mysterious and sassy way about him that makes you want to chase him anywhere, like throwing yourself into danger with open arms, but it's not that dangerous. He's also sweet, but not as sweet as our wolfie boy Lucas. And, come on, who doesn't want to be queen? Being called Faery Lady by him? Cuz I fuckin do!

Lucas: I've a soft spot for werewolves. Yeah, I'm a Twilight fan and I was team Jacob LMAO I liked how Lucas had both the sweetness and the brutality and possessiveness of a wolf in the right measure, not toxic at all and quite fun to watch. He's a sweetie pie, you can't help but like this ferocious fur ball, Lucas's just the big softie and I want him. His ending, going to live with the humans, is something Astora deserves, although it would be something I'd hate to do in her place, but being in a pack is the best part.

Pragan: Ok, so... I have mixed feelings about our bloodsucker here (I swear it's not my team jacob vs edward team) He's really handsome, and charming, but I kept feeling like he was only attracted to Astora because of the blood? Dunno, I don't trust vampires very much. I think he's the most Dark Romance of the three LOL but he's not bad, for me he's not better than lucas or Aeden, but he was attractive and funny just the same. I didn't like his ending very much, I don't know, maybe it would be cool if Astora became a vampire too, but that must be impossible? Aaaa, ignore me, I'm just thinking too much. I loved all three routes, regardless!

I liked this game so much! The different routes are great and each one adds more to the story as we play. Lucas's route surprised me a lot cause I didn't expected him to be so sweet and it just feels right that the protagonist will live in the human world with him,  but Aeden's is still my favorite. It seems they were made for each other and she deserves to be queen. I'll remember this as one of my favorite game of the genre!

I am delighted with the game and impressed that it was created in just two months. Probably, like many people here, I liked Aeden's ruth the most.

But I was curious what Astora was saying when chasing away the bone fairy (Dun nora leew cnor. A’sta. A’sta be! - Lucas's ruth), and although I understand the semantic connotation, I'm interested...

I also tried to find information about this creature (Cnamh sith), but according to its name it turned out to be impossible, only the description (bone faeri) gave the result, but I'm not completely sure that this is it... 

Has this name been used in any folklore? Where can I read it?

Currently going onto Aedens route but im not sure how to get the good ending:( but i love this game and how well written it is! Thank you for making this game!

I loved every second of that  game, it's extremely cozy and just well written. Character are flawlessly designed in every aspect, I couldn't help but just fall in love with this game (and Aeden lol). It kind of made me back to those fairy tales about all sorts of folklore creature but in new light, immersing myself into this fantasy land. 

Thank you for your work!

I'm curious what 'A fey'lana maith' meant when Aeden said it? Currently in the process of reading so if it's explained forgive me lngsl

This game is really good! I've played so many visual novels but this one stood out for being able to get me attached to the side characters in such a short amount of time! I didn't expect to like all three love interests either, they're all great. Good job! Excited to see what you make in the future (if you do decide to)

my god... what an absolute GEM.. im not okay.. these feelings inside my heart UGH

this game was absolutely beautiful, STUNNING. And the art!!! 10000/10. Will replay again 2532435 times

Ok, I played this a bit ago but forgot to comment, so now is the time! At first I was only really interested in Aeden, but the common route/prologue (to my surprise) made me interested in all the LIs.  Well done with that! 

So far I've played Aeden's route and Lucas. And I love Aeden. He is wonderful (and beautiful). I enjoy their banter and dynamics.

Also the art is gorgeous!! I often found myself just admiring the MC. She is so beautiful. Thank you for making her customizable! 

The backgrounds are also really beautiful, though definitely a different style, I think it works very well. 

The characters sprites are all really pretty, including the background characters. 

I can't really believe this game was made in only two months (?!?). It is fantastic, really incredible job!!!

I love this game so much. May edit cause words not wording about it atm, but I come back sometimes and replay my fav route (Aeden's) so thank you!

Just finished Aeden's route in one go and just WOW. Can't wait to finish all the others. (Also, useless sidenote, but the guy I just got over irl has the same name, with a slight spelling change, which spooked me a bit LOL.)

Hi! I still love this game. This is just a little bug report. During Aeden's route when they are first sitting on the throne together, I get the error message:
"Image 'aededn hooded' not found."

How did I miss this? I really enjoyed the story and the characters! I wish the game was available on steam, I would love to buy it there.

Thank you for your hard work!

Oh, man, I didn't expect to be so smitten by Lucas. 

The story is short, but it's rich and so well-written. So far, I only played Aeden and Lucas' routes, and I'll do Dragan's route soon.

My only "complaint" - which isn't actually a real complain, just a little wish I guess - is that you can't choose your gender and pronouns. I wish I had an option to play as male MC and customize him.

Normally I don't enjoy playing as female MC as I can't relate much, but I decided to check this game out as I was running out of romance games with male MCs... and I'm so glad I did. The setting and world building is amazing, and the romance was so sweet and built just at the right pace. 

Okay! Now that I've properly finished all of the routes, I can leave some (more) of my thoughts here.  I've bothered the devs enough, so I'm going to keep this very succinct LOL but know that I would be writing  paragraphs of praise  if I wasn't avoiding being annoying.  [Light spoilers!]

I love the art, it has a lovely charm to it and the backgrounds for faerie are all so colorful and unique, one of my favorite things about fae-related stories is seeing how every artist and their writers interpret faerie, and this is another of my favorites to add to the list. The sprites are beautiful, expressive, and quite varied! You don't usually see so many variations to the outfits and character designs, but Astora gets several lovely wardrobe changes. 

The story itself is short and sweet, but I wouldn't call it simple. I was taking notes throughout each run, and I can go back and see certain points where I made specific connections that would come into play later, and it made the whole experience much more enjoyable. Each playthrough has a different facet and perspective, so you'll learn just a little more with each route. 

The characters are all incredibly charming, not just the love interests. Pix is my BABY, and the triplets were very endearing with their picture-bargaining. F'liri is a dear. and I loved that Aeden gave us a little more insight into her personality (and relationship.) I adore Rhistel, even though he's a much quieter figure, I became very attached to him throughout the course of the game. He's like a grandpa.

And the romance, I wasn't at all prepared for just how smooth the dialogue would be. The banter was engaging and fun, very flirty in both playful and sensual ways depending on the characters. It was nice to see the range, because the writer absolutely killed it with the romantic buildup. There's a well-balanced blend of classic vampire/werewolf vibes without going too far into being a stereotype, though I admit internet culture has ruined the word 'alpha' for me, that's a personal problem LOL

There's so much nuance and strong characterization packed into the world and the cast, I feel like I got to learn so much about them all, and since not all of the information was given to me through text, but rather from inferring through body language and clues, it really gives the feeling that the setting is so much bigger than we get to see. There's a lot of depth, I think, that might be easy to overlook if you don't think there's anything deeper to find. There is. 

Overall, a beautifully done story.

I'm sorry in advance I will probably be commenting twice bc I'm in the middle of playing the game atm (I'm taking NOTES can u believe this) but I wanted to ask if you have any other social media that I could follow? I'm completely enamored with this project and would love to support others if possible!

Just want to say, I think your writing is INCREDIBLE! I had such a good time exploring the world and characters.  I really can't wait to see what you make in the future!! :D 

hi :) how do I get dragan's good endings? 

I was not at all dissapointed in my excitement for this game (even if my ADHD made me take a break before coming back to it). I have completed Aeden's route now. He drew me in from the beginning because he's my type i guess, dark hair with striking eyes, fae, and hiding behind a rakish/dickish facade. Despite the front he puts up i love how fairly he treats the MC, showing early on that he sees her as and will treat her as an equal. Not something you necessarily expect from someone who is not only a prince but also fae. Even with how loving and sweet he is by the end, I still have to say the moment that was most touching for me was when he shared the fruit gift he received. In the moment it seemed almost absent minded and automatic, which makes it more powerful/moving. Without thinking about it he was showing that he views her as his equal, and he's willing to share all he has.

Of to play Dragan's route next.

I wanted to wait until I completed all three routes before leaving a comment to make sure I got the full experience. Well, now I have and it's really exceeded all my expectations.

I mostly downloaded this because of the beautiful sprites (Aeden❤️ and MC especially) and it's about fairies🧚‍♂️. Even if it was just okay I was going to give it a try, but omg this was amazing! I loved getting to know the MC, the world, and all the other characters that inhabit it (Pix is such a great best friend!). The romances were all sweet and awesome in their own ways, and of course, I LOVE the romance, but I also loved how you portrayed Astora interacting with everyone in her world. From her best friend, Pix, to her grumpy but affectionate handmaid, the creatures of the forest,  and even the Night Queen.

The story was so well written and really made me care about what was happening to the characters. A couple of the endings even had me tearing up.

I buy a lot of games like this and play even more, but this is one of the best I've encountered in a long time. I really enjoyed the whole experience, and I can't tell you how rare that is. I'm looking forward to seeing what you'll make in the future.

Thank you for sharing this awesome game!❤️

so so SO impressed by this game! especially for a jam game and a free game, this is just so top tier. I would love to see and pay for an updated version with more character sprites and/or CGs someday, but even as is it's so polished and lovely and immersive. I loved all the faerie friends, especially my bestie Pix, and I felt like you did a great job getting the player to care about the side characters in such a short amount of time. A lot of times in games and stories like these, I find the side characters are kind of shoved down my throat before I really get to know or understand them, so that was a welcome departure. And then Aeden is bae, obviously. Really really really fantastic game <3

I have played more of these games than I can count. I had read though all that I knew where out, so I searched and found this.  All I can say is...wow! I absolutely love the story. The art is beautiful, even the music is enchanting. This is now one of my favorites. 

I adored Lucas!

Thank you for sharing your hard work!

This game is truly amazing! Love Aeden so much. I'm so excited to try other routes.  

Beautiful game, enjoyed playing it very much, and Aeden's story especially. Impressive writing and care taken on the lore for such a short development time. At one point I was second guessing the ending and who the true villain would turn out to be. Would love to see more dark fantasy romance from this dev team in the future, with more full length features like a CG gallery, etc. You nailed this genre and atmosphere. 

I adore this game. For the first time, I found a bug. If you play Dragan's route and select playing the flute after you fall out of the tree, either I get stuck and can't advance if I just click like normal or I get an error message if I use skip. With the error message, I was able to ignore it and then continue on, so no harm done, but I thought you might like to know. Anyway, this game is fantastic. Thank you so much for making it!

You must be aware by this point that this is a stunning work of art 🫡🤍. I still want to say it though.

Everything about it was fantastic, from the story to the characters to the feelings at the end... 

Oh, and the ROs are all quite alluring...possibly a lot 🌝 ✨. I'm not complaining...

The game was so good! I'm in love with both Astora and Aeden. Astora was a fun mc to play and definitely a memorable one for me. All the love interests are sweet, but Aeden simply has my heart in his clutches. Overall, this was a very lovely game to play

Installing now, this looks really good and i saw a few creator's i follow give it really good reviews so I'm excited.

Otome fans will love this game. The quality surpasses many other games of the same genre. The writing is polished (I noticed only a few typos), the art is nice (the colours give it such a calm yet mysterious nighttime feel), and the music is lovely and atmospheric.

For me, it was too otome, so I played through only Aedan's route. I prefer games where the romance takes the back seat and lets the story drive. I felt nothing really happened, except the romance, until the 5th or even the 6th day. And there was a bit too much blushing, tingling, sighing and flirting for me. But this is absolutely a matter of taste, and as I said, true otome fans can't go wrong with this one. :)



SPOILER
Honestly, I thought it would have been amazing if Aedan had turned out to be the evil one instead of Night Queen. I'm weird like that, lol.

i really enjoy this game, the story and the characters (Aeden <3). I recommended this game and i hope we will have anothers chapters. For those who love faeries, vampires and werewolves, just try it !

I love this game, it is beautiful. 

It is AS wonderful that I really want to "dispense you a coffee" ... but how? If I download the game I don't get the usual stuff like "name your price or get it for free".

i loved playing this so much! thanks for a great game <3

This is a fantastic game.

Each year as I explore the entries for Otome Jam I expect to find one (and sometimes, several) gems, and this is it for me. 

The writing, the design, the romance and the lore, everything is amazing. I can feel the love and time that was put into it, thank you so much for your work!

I loved all 3 routes, with Aeden as my favorite. I'd be curious to know what is real name is :). 

Best character goes to Astora. Her boldness, bravery and level-headedness is everything I love in a main character.

This has been added to my list of comfort games, thank you so much <3

I loved everything about this. The world-building and lore, writing, art, music... it all comes together seamlessly to form a deeply romantic story. I love the way the narrative varies enough to keep things interesting on each route and the romance builds believably with each of the LIs. You managed to tell a story about the fae while keeping it both wondrous and dark-- my favorite kind of faerie story. 

Fascinating story from beginning to the end. The lore  of the faerie world and their inhabitants is very interesting in this VN. 

AMAZING! Let me just say that I havent felt this way about a VN since Ebon light. I have played tons of VN's but this one just gives me those ebon light feels. Like you're in a whole other world! The world building is just superb in Evernight. It is immersive and makes you feel like you are literally living in another realm. I love the MC's relationships and interactions with the faeries. The three troublemakers were especially cute! The writing is so good and the story pulls you in at every turn! I could not stop reading and had to do all the routes one after the next with no break in between! The love interests were very unique and there were aspects of their personalities that I did not expect. They were not predictable at all and I loved that! 

I played Dragan first. I adored his route. He was so stoic and had a lot of self control. Ever the gentleman but also fierce and beautiful. I love the connection that the MC had with him. It was great!

I did Aeden's route next. His route was unexpected and interesting. His personality was nothing like I thought it would be. I loved finding out about his story and the ending was just amazing, like a fairy tale indeed!

Lastly, I played Lucas's route. He was the kindest of all three and so considerate! Such a sweet and gentle personality for a werewolf. Funny and handsome! What a combo! I really enjoyed his route as well. In fact I enjoyed all three routes in the game. Its rare to find a VN where all the love interests are amazing and I cannot pick a favourite! 

P.S. I love that they used Irish as Faerie language. :) 

An-mhaith!

is there a walkthrough for this game's endings?
