Guess it had to come to this

So, the game was just leaked to a pirate forum and I've seen a sharp rise in the interest surrounding it. I think it's just a question of time until places where I distributed the game are linked to where it can be gotten for free, and it would be unfair to those who would buy it from here. In light of that, I've decided to just distribute the game for free from now on.

Those who bought the game in the past have had a long time to enjoy a kind of "early access", and I plan to send something special their way if they contact me, as I value their support very highly. As for everyone else, I hope you enjoy the game.

These past few months have been an incredible struggle for me and it has paralysed development for this game. Now I'm back full time on it and I plan on updating it as regularly as I possibly can, so look forward to it.

I updated the game links to take out the janky combat system and fix some issues in the game. My current plans for the game are to pursue a more straightforward approach and to reduce the amount of choices, path and other systems in the game to make it more purely a visual novel (although not quite a kinetic novel.)

So yeah, enjoy and look forward to a next update.
