Pretty gay, and pretty good! A lot more nuanced than I expected from it and a lot less concise than I wanted it to be. I really appreciate the dedication towards preserving the horror elements that precede this in Echo while still trying to tackle some of the more oppressive themes of homophobia that something set in this time period in this part of the country might have. I obviously don't have a lot of historical context for things were, I'm mostly just going off of what I know and what I feel, more than anything.
I'm excited to see this all the way through! I think it's well written and characterized, but unfortunately some of the routes drag on for a bit too long and one of them especially starts making turns towards the melodramatic. It's kinda disappointing with that route specifically because it's one that I think has the most potential, for sure. Regardless of that, my curiosity into The Smoke Room has been sated, and I will definitely revisit this when there's more substantial updates or when there's a full release, like my original plan was.
Love me some gay furries!
