Awesome job indeed! ^_^ Bit by bit this keeps progressing. I don't think I saw anything too corny or anything. I quite like it.

It's great!! Although I tried to figure out who had some voices I thought that it was impossible!!

The old man scene was good, nothing cheesy or morbid about it.

And a reference to the In Memoriam game! Lol!!

Played this second trial version. (Again, works fine on Vista 64bit)

The sister scene seems fairly standard to me, quite allright, don't think there's anything wrong with it.

At some point the main character talks about the hydro-jet bath, I'm not sure someone who's been in a coma would find it sensual. Relaxing or soothing perhaps, but sensual?

The old man scene while quite possible does seem a tad cheesy, but it might be best to leave it in as it helps paint a better picture of the main character due to his interaction with others.

"Mhh.. e-shuushuu... huh", priceless! I lol'd. (Though someone with amnesia would most likely not show interest in a computer game. But an excellent easter egg nonetheless!)

I'd say excellent work so far! Can't wait to see more!

I downloaded the track you tried to send. It's nice, but I'm not sure if it would fit the atmosphere of the game ( well, I only got a glimpse of the plot so it might fit ). In fact it reminds me of the opening of Soul Link.

Looks nice Eva-chan. Though as with the visual novel itself, the characters look a bit aliased to me (even the background slook sharper at times), besides that looks quite perfect!

The video concept looks great! Some thing I would maybe recommend for improvement.

- Better Character Sprites
The characters look very pixelized when compared to the backgrounds and what-not. Is there anyway to get better sprites or is Topz still working on them?

- Character Names
Maybe add the character names next to them when they appear in the intro.

I'd do it, but I can't edit video for crap.

NEW RELEASE!
http://www.mediafire.com/?zbjgdfbgzhz

As some of you may know, I have signed on to help Eva with the visual novel. That means that there will be two people working on the project at any given time. At the same time, we are still looking for artists to help with the character designs and stories for characters.
Feel Free to add me to MSN, but leave your E-Shuu^2 SN on so I know who you are.

First thing in chapter 2: Boy in a girl dress.

"..Kage *nods*"

And the text "I'll just have to guide you though it" Soooo Kage!
Only "Nightmare come to life" is a bit harsh I think..

*flutters arms wildly*

My character made an appearance! I'm so happy~! And yes yes! An excellent choice of dialogue! I'm VERY certain I would've said the same thing if I was in "her" shoes! XD

*dead from over-excitement*

I love the magazine reference lol. Great visual novel. Love the voices too. But it left me hanging at the "To be continued"...how the heck will this guy figure out his memories? And how does shuushuu play into this?
