THIS GAME IS SO BEAUTIFUL, I was intrigued at first and now I'm obsessed with these two! How can a game make me cry TWICE?! I said it before in Gelus but these stories would make an amazing book series, I love this world and it's rules and how these rules are broken.

I am obsessed with this game, it's so amazing! I love Violo and Vivere and their dynamics and the art not to mention how invested I am in the lore of this world,

Now I just need to get all the bad endings lol

Hello, I have been waiting for the continuation of this game like crazy, but the PC emulator for my phone does not work, can you recommend an emulator for Android that is compatible with the game? I'm really excited but the game won't open for me

(+1)

I have no idea. Maybe someone else who uses an emulator can, but I myself have no clue.

i wanted to ask.. can we have only one love interest in the game?

(+4)

No. Both or neither, never either.

this was so insanely good, i'm so glad i played this. thank you for making this! looking forward to the rest!

Hi!! I absolutely adore this game but I came across a bug. Spoilers?










So, the bug occurs after the scene where Viv shows the MC Violo's heart chamber and both Viv and the mc return to the surface. When Viv is having a coughing fit the voiced line continues way past the scene. I attempted to turn the sound and voice volume down only to find it in the music category making it so I am unable to hear the music for a bit of my gameplay. I also reloaded saves before that point and attempted to skip it and closed out the game but nothing worked!! </3 

Luckily, after sending Viv to bed the bug disappears.

(P.S. I'm playing in the romantic route if that is of any importance!)

(+1)

Do not worry, this is a bug that has cropped up for multiple people. Some how some of Viv's voice lines got kicked to the music channel instead of the voice channel. It has been addressed and should hopefully not happen in the next patch. 

I'm going to have to fiddle with the audio over all, as I did receive reports that Viv's lines tend to be a bit louder than Vio's. This time I'm going to make very, very sure that things are coded right.

(+9)

Yeah, i am not leaving those two

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

(+4)

This was such a beautiful experience, I loved it so much! Hands down one of my favourite visual novels now

(+3)

This! This is great! You are so talented and I'm so excited to see the whole game. 40k words for a demo is absolutely astounding, in a good way. It's been quite a while since I played for the first time, I just want to gush about how awesome your work is, I know it helps to hear it. Keep on keeping on, you're doing great.

I was playing for a while and in the middle of a conversation with violo and vivere once it gets to a certain line it kicks me out to the main menu (I'm trying to get the romantic ending if that helps) is this a bug or something? Or am I maybe playing the demo?? I'm not too good with these things- 

You more than likely hit the end of the demo (if the conversation was at the dinner table). Due to me being injured and trapped away from my computer at the time of release (we had to release it before the jam finished), the demo didn't have an end screen put in to signify the end of what was available.

okay! thank you! is the full version out or are you still working on it??

(+3)

It is still a W.I.P. Between my injury and some other things that got in the way, the game got very delayed. At the moment, it's still in waiting for final assets (AKA: CG art), but it has been fully written and mostly fully programmed at this point. 

(1 edit) (+3)

Ugh this game is amazing! It's almost impossible for me to put to words on how much this game has mean for me, and I'm excited when the game is finished! (it's currently been my hyper fixation for a dead set while now)

I don't want to ramble too much, but my only issue is there's been a small bug? Where during the scene with Violo and his father, choosing the option of: "Are you alright?" Immediately follows up with, "The flower circle created a ring that had Violo's study in the center." No dialogue of how he reacted whatsoever, compared to the other options.

Everything else i chose the middle option for choices. 

But, if I were to choose all of the last/ good options, it'd actually have dialogue.


(+5)

Yes, that's on the list of things that will be fixed within the next update ^.^

(+7)

I've very excited for this game to be done. I played the demo I believe around a year ago, and while I was a bit sad its not finished, I'm glad to be around knowing it may finish in the next few months. Take care of yourselves!

(+4)

I cannot express how much I'm in love with this concept. I was so thrilled so see the project is still in the works and hasn't been abandoned. 
Keep up the good work at your own pace! 

(+1)

This is absolutely amazing. I just finished the demo, and I am absolutely in love with Violo and Vivere!!!

(1 edit) (+1)

i just finished playing the demo and i loved it, but I was so confused when the game ended abruptly when I reached the end of the demo. But it is still a very good game, it did take me 6 hours just to finish the demo, kind of scared of how long it would take me to finish the full game when it's out

(+3)

I'm absolutely addicted to this game, I really do hope that this isn't dropped or anything :(

(+4)

It isn't :D 

(+1)

YIPEEE!! also I was also wondering, will the full game would cost money? 

(+5)

No :) As this was a volunteer project, there aren't any contracts/agreements in place for financials, thus I will never charge money for the game or have the "pay what you want" feature toggled on. Also, since these games are made in a short time span (each game is supposed to have only about 3-6 months of active work on it - IRL issues getting in the way not withstanding), they don't quite reach what I deem 'professional quality' (aka: something polished enough I feel comfortable charging money for). 

(+5)

Honestly I think Gelus and Pario are professional level games. They're well made, with lovely art, music, and even a little voice acting sprinkled in between. You guys put in a lot of effort, so I personally believe that you should be allowed to accept money when you're spending so much time to make sure these games are good quality. Stay safe out there

(+1)

i agree !!! :')

(+20)

Read trigger warnings, installs immediately.

(+11)(-1)

such a cool game omfg!! absolutely love the story and the art. also ive never wanted to be sandwiched between 2 people so bad my god!

(+9)

oh god im addicted to it

(+15)

*Y E S* I  LOVE JTHEM, I LOVE THE STORY, I LOVE THE GAME INGENERAL, I WOULD LET THEM CANNABALIZE ME AND WOULD APOLOGIZE IF I TASTED BAD 

Violo is very orange cat coded lol, I wish I could find more fanart/any fancfics of them but I cant find any and none of my friends know this game when I talk about it T^T

the dialog is delicious, and the art is very edible (in the best was possible. I want to put them in a terrarium and watch them)

(+8)

i LOVE your intensity

(+2)

LMAOO

(+9)

Really loving this game, beautiful storyline and characters and looking forward to more, please and thank you!

(+8)

this game is incredible, I love navigating a fraught lover's quarrel with death or eternal torment on the line, Violo and Vivrere as well as the other characters are flawless. Both endearing and likable while being distinctly inhuman in outlook and inconveniently human in emotion. I can't wait to see what the full game holds and to maneuver the poor mercenary into being the tiebreaker for two codependent immortals!

(+10)(-2)

I really enjoyed the game and I hope the creator feels better soon. I liked the worldbuilding and the mc characteristaion. I do wonder what would happen if an MC did something they didn't like or stayed a while and then wanted to leave. I personally have questions about some of the trigger warnings (as it the specific kind of thing that gives me nightmares - eaten alive, piercing, and limb removal and transformation ) so I hope to see spoilers before I play. I also really enjoy the background art like alot. So yeah. hope the creator is doing okay 

(+7)

my first comment ever just to say that I love it ! I frankly have nothing more to point than other people haven't already, and funnily I started with this one before realizing Gelus was a thing (and it left me less confused than I first was, obviously)

just two points :

1. The Gods sucks 

2. that is mere curiosity, but is there any plans for Amare & Necare to eventually get their own games ? that's what I've been wondering for a whole month 😭

(+6)

I crawl out of my hole multiple months later to confirm that yes, Necare and Amare are planned to get their own games. 

My IRL situation went to hell for a while, so progress is slow in general. Once Pario is finished, I will finish the mini sequel set a few hundred years later (The Woeful Rose & The Bitter Crow) and then start tackling Necare's game!

There’s a few typos I found that I’ll list here:

Otherwise, the game was so wonderful I spent days thinking about it afterwards and begging for the full release!!! I’m typing this comment merely because of my love for the game–not dislike.

This is my second time playing, that’s how much I liked the game and why I can spot typos better now.

“If you had gone off to make a bunch of babies, your bloodline would persist with this anomaly.” - Violo

“I sat down with a sigh, realizing they’d put me between them again.” - MC

There’s probably more, so I’ll update this, but again, THANK YOU!

Bold words mean the corrected word, in the original there’s a typo.

I LOVE YOU STYGIANEYE!!!! Off to playing your other games to deal with the post-game (demo?) depression.

(+5)

Thank you so much! As I was injured \right before the jam was closed, we weren't able to do a proper final pass over the script one more time, so I'll make sure to note these corrections down for cleanup. 

This is just the first bit of the game. I'm working on the rest, but I've been focused on recovering from my injury and dealing with writer's block. I will finish this game. It's just slow rolling at the moment while I tackle real-life shenanigans. I've made some progress though, which I hope is good news ^.^

(+2)

I’m so grateful you replied :D (Looking back, my comment sucked and made little sense, so I hope that’s alright.)

I’m so sorry you got injured, I hope you’re better now! And it’s totally alright to deal with writer’s block, but I’m sure whatever you end up publishing will be worth it. You inspired me quite a bit to write my own visual novel, so I completely understand the feeling of writer’s block.

With that off the table, I hope real life isn’t being too harsh on you! The game is already perfect, and I love Violo and Vivere so much (and the little Easter egg in Sacrarium Gelus), so I’m excited to see how the game will end. Your characters feel very real, humane. Hopefully there’s a tab in the full game for side stories ;p!

Anyways, final runthrough and here’s a list of noteable things in a text document because there were quite a few tiny ones. I hope I didn’t come offensive by pointing at these silly things! I’m sorry if I’ve wasted your time and this ended up pointless, but if I can help in any way, I’m glad.

Link to the document. I’ll update it as I go on! :3

(+1)

(Please tell me if I should continue the list or leave it at that. I don’t mind scanning through the entire demo if needs be :p)

(+2)

Oh no no no. You weren't being offensive at all. I do truly appreciate the extra assistance with it. Bug reports and typo reports are very important for in-development VNs, so I make sure to note all of them down as they come in. That way I can get them during clean up. Your words are very kind as well, so really thank you ^.^

(+10)

Goddamn I spent the entire early morning playing through this demo and my only real criticism is that it abruptly ends without warning that this was the end of the demo, however I did enjoy having learn a bit more about the world and both Viola and Vivere. I remember in the Sacrarium Gelos that I was asking if it was possible to explore more about the world that both Hemios and MC lived in and good lord did this demo give a beautiful world building exercise without overloading the player.

Not only that but learning about Viola and Vivere and being able to see the pieces that they wish to keep-- It's honestly conflicting in a moral stand point, but at the same time what they're doing could be classified as some sort of good action, and Viola himself shows to have suffered irreperable trauma. Honestly, just seeing how they interact with MC and each other is just fascinating, but not gonna lie when both Viola and Vivere interact, there is something so damn tender and gentle that it honestly feels wrong to intrude on them. I like how the poly route is conveyed because often it can be a bit difficult to write respectfully and without it being weird. 

I kinda wanna learn more about MC, especially their mercenery background and the trauma they had to go through (imagine the amount of betrayals they had to go through throughout their years). That and I'm getting inspired just seeing this skittish MC learning to love from Viola and Vivere despite the two of them also having two loose screws, they at least know how to be comfortable to show their love while MC, I imagine, would be so restricted and hesitant with irrational thoughts. Just angsty thoughts HEHEHEHE

Anyway, looking forward to what comes next! Good luck with the development and take care!

(+6)

Can't understate how enchanting this demo is: I've found myself entirely charmed by these comical and complex living gods. Really looking forward to the eventual full release to see how the relationship between them and the MC develops!

As a short aside, really like the world building! Really had a sense of the world (or at least as our MC sees it.) Kudos, and thank you so much for sharing.

Violo and Vivere are such complex, unhinged, sweeties. Bless them.  I ended up loving them much more than I had expected to ( and I already loved them based on their designs alone :'). Your artist's character designs always seem to tickle my fancy. Keep them, please!;> ). 

I won't lie, I'm very eager to see the mc fall in love with Violo and Vivere. Given mc's own personal history and their values, they would suit this pair so well, that mc falling into a warm/positive relationship with them just feels natural, like it was meant to be. I enjoy how it doesn't feel like the mc is an "intruder" that "barges" in an already established relationship, if you manage to balance their affection. I also love how you managed to portray the characters as more loving, affectionate and supportive with a mc that has won their affection ( heck yeah, love me yanderes who go fully dere, instead of fully yan, when interacting with their loved ones! they are the best and most difficult type to pull off.)

In short, what I'm trying to say is that I'm honestly very impressed with how well the poly romance dynamic was written to work here. ❤️ Amazing job! Can't wait to see this being updated!

p.s. since I haven't seen anyone comment on this, I had to bring some compliments to the voice acting. Voice acting, even partial va is a hit or miss for me. For Sacrarium Pario, it proved to be a great immersive addition to the reading experience. I found that both voices fit their respective characters, and both use the right intensity and emotions in the lines they voiced👏. So great job vas and the dev that cast them!  (p.s.2 Just wanted to add that Violo's humming, was so haunting when I first heard it, but now, after finishing the demo, I can't help but find it a tad endearing, lol.)

(+6)

This is soooo aamzing!! I can't wait to see more <333

(+3)(-1)

this is a bit off-putting/unusual to ask, but out of pure curiosity, when was transphobia shown in the game? i tried to avoid the mentions of it in my first play through but after getting a few other routes, i have had yet to see it, as a trans man myself.

(+9)

It isn't in yet. All of the warnings for the full release are included to prevent people from getting attached via the demo only to not be able to play the full game due to the content warnings. So, not every warning exists yet.

The transphobia warning is specifically related to when Violo opens up about how his family treated him, and that scene is further down the line.  I can't say exactly when since the game is undergoing a resequencing at the moment, but Violo can mention it in high affection play through when he feels secure enough to be that level of vulnerable.

(+2)

ohhhh alright, thanks dudes

(+10)(-1)

As someone Poly you would not believe how happy this game has already made me! I daydream about it constantly haha I'm fairly excited to see where the story and the relationship between these three will go, keep up the great work!

(And here's to them somehow magically figuring out Air Conditioning to fix those stuffy hallways hahaha)

(+9)

Great so far, but I did find a bug: in the scene where you meet "father dearest" if you ask if Violo is okay, it skips the subsequent conversation and jumps to you exploring again.

(+7)

Huge fan of the game! loved every minute of it! But I did come across a bug where it says Image 'viere acthappyt' not found. Not sure if it's just on my computer or what but keep it up!

(+4)

Thank you for noting this! It's a code typo for the displayables, and it's something I do need to fix. 

(+4)

absolutely amazing game! adore it. i'm in love with those two and sightly scared but great work. i truly can't wait for the full game! 

(+4)

I just want to say amazing game so far, and looking forward to the seeing what comes next. Just to clarify will we have to pay for the full game? I really like the lore and characterisation, and hopefully won't have too many nightmares lol 

(+2)

No. Entries in the Sacrarium series are always intended to be free.

(+1)

Ok thanks for the clarification 

(+9)

is it bad that i kinda want mc to stay with them>

(+4)

A wonderfully thought out game from the magic system to consistent lore, every corner had me invested in the story. I can't wait to play more of this.

(+3)

this game is amazingly written :0 the developers are so talented their characters' are so fun and interesting 10/10 can't wait for a full release :]

(+2)

They have fun personalities.
