>>5201>a love colored blackbirdI ended up looking this up out of curiosity, and I was surprised to find that I've actually downloaded a different VN by this developer. I never got around to playing it, but it was on my list. It's disappointing to hear about the purple prose, but maybe the one I downloaded won't be written in the same style.
>extended poem instead of a narrativeUgh, I've read an indie VN like that before, and it can be super annoying. This doesn't even seem like one of those "funny bad" VNs. Just boring. It's a shame because I love surreal stories.
>Hope you enjoy itI did! I really like
forbidden romance stories in BL, and I enjoyed the build-up to their relationship.
I like the dynamic of two guys on opposing sides of a war having to work together for their survival. There was a tragically short science fiction BL manga I read a long time ago with a very similar premise. Coincidentally, I'm pretty sure one of the guys was a medic, too. It almost makes me wonder if this was inspired by that manga. The manga is called Blue Nathanael, and while I don't exactly recommend it, this VN really reminded me of it. I would have liked if it were a little longer, but I'm probably being a little hypocritical considering I read it specifically because it was so short kek. Also, I was fully expecting
a tragic ending since Christopher left Fumio on the island. I was confident Fumio was either going to die there or end up married. The fake-out at the end fooled me kek.
