Remember the Flowers

I appreciate the restraint in melodrama that could have been soooo easy to fall into, because it turned it from a story of regretting the past into embracing the future, and being able to move on. While I don't feel that it's particularly willing to go very deep into the themes that it's set up, it's very endearing and very much wanting to be a nice experience that it more than makes up for that nitpick that I have. This is also very, very well written, and aside from a couple of instances, very well characterized.
I will now sit on the floor and wait for the next build, like Scott Pilgrim waiting for his package from Ramona Flowers.

I know I had heard a lot about this within the "furry visual novel" space as well as some character designs but didn't really actually know a lot going in and I'm happy it went that way because I was greeted with a genuinely very good sci-fi story? Like, this is the kind of thing I could recommend to most of my actual friends even with having furry characters as a central point. It's one of the few in this niche sub-genre that has a human protagonist with a plot-central reason for being so! There's a lot of very lovely artwork and good music, but more importantly Remember the Flowers just has a good story about moving on past the bleakest of traumas and fighting for your beliefs and bonds with others which will never cease to remain the most based kind of plot if handled well.
While it's unfinished, I'm very excited to see where this goes. I have a few quibbles with pacing every now and then with some scenes moving a hair too quickly for my liking, my kinda analogy being like a rhythm game with a single note or beat that isn't accounted for when it should be. There's a few scenes where just having like an extra moment of inner dialogue, whether it's a few lines or even a single sentence, would've greatly improved the moment-to-moment pacing of several incredibly important moments to make them hit even harder, but this is really nitpicky at best frankly and honestly my only real complaint so far. Otherwise, would very much recommend!
