I can't believe Tenebris is the more normal of the two.

I Can't wait for the full game.

LOVED THIS GAME!!!! i can't wait for more progress!! tenebris is soo cute <3 i wanna snuggle him !! amazing game and keep up the hard work!!!

(+1)

Didn't see it coming where Keith would be miles more messed up than Tenebris, but that NSFW scene man... wow O.O Dude scared me just a little bit, lmao.

what NSFW scene? How do I get there?

(+1)

Ahhh this game had me grinning through and though, the tension, the mystery even was honestly amazing! I cant wait for this to be a full swinging game! 

absolutely loved this! both of them have my heart, and i'm so happy to see that you're planning a poly ending as well <3 i ADORE your art style SO MUCH: the characters look great, and the boys are both so cute!!! looking forward to seeing how this all plays out

(1 edit)

I've read the comments, I've tried to follow the guide. Nothing is working and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I literally keep getting the same endings.. Please help me.


Edit: Never mind I figured it out

what was going wrong?(im asking cuz i cant do it either)

(+1)

Guys how do I get the NSFW Endigs? I really don`t know what to do...

(+3)(-2)

I got the Keith and Tenebris NSFW endings, for Keith, you need to show you are jealous of the waitress giving her number to Keith by choosing the option of "enrage" after she gives him her number and make sure you have positive interactions with both Keith and Tenebris.


For Tenebris, you have to be nice to Tenebris, talk to your co-worker Jacob, go on a date with Keith, you ask him to switch with Tenebris, once you two leave, you ask to see Tenebris again. Once you hear noises from outside, you need to go out of your apartment to check it out, now if you do it correctly, instead of having only one option to run and get the police, you get an option to stay. Once Tenebris is in your apartment, you click "Take it further" and well you get NSFW ending


Hope this helped

For Tenebris, I got his ending for Keith, I didn't get it. I was nice to both of them, but I still don't see the option of being mad at the waitress. Well, thanks anyway !!!

(+2)(-1)

Try following the guide I posted! You need to pick a few specific choices along with being nice to Keith.

Cool and innovative way to execute a love triangle scenario, both characters are appealing in their own ways. Was worried that this would go down the path of misusing DID so it was super relieving to find out you were creative with your use of mythology; it also leaves some really interesting plot points to explore later on in the story, should you continue this project. Matter of personal preference but there was something just a little off-putting about the facial structure of the characters, but that's just me. Another thing I REALLY appreciated here was the realism in not only the MCs reactions, but also the responses to said reactions; in many VNs of this type more realistic/scared responses are treated as the "asshole" or the "wrong" option, and while this can work with certain personalities of characters, it is so overused

Yoo wtf was with the spider plant jump scare?!?!?! Please give a warning for arachnophobes in the future. Seriously please thats horrific

Hi hi ! I got bored and decided to make a fanfiction on these lovely boys <3. It currently only has one chapter and thats with Keith, but I will get to writing more at some point :D

The said fanfic below:

The Duality of them {Duality Visual Novel oneshots} - Chapter 1 - Yona_Senpai - Duality (Visual Novel) [Archive of Our Own]

A very enjoyable game with an interesting duality (hah) of characters. If i had to note something negative, id say the text size ought be increased, and perhaps have its color darkened. It can be a bit hard to read at times. Besides this, the art is enjoyable and the color palette gives a nice consistent play on the blue-yellow contrast.

(+1)

I really enjoyed the game, but when will you finish it? I liked it very much, and I appreciate your efforts. Thank you

I will be updating it little by little. I'm only one person with a full time job, so I can't set a definite date for when it will be fully finished. And I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Well I will be impatiently waiting for the game to finish and I appreciate your efforts very much

This review is only to criticize the visual part of this game, not the script. The text cannot be seen very well since the text is white and the typography is very thin, also the panel where the text is located is very clear. Apart from that, the backgrounds are very ugly (sorry), they look like photos with a filter (which they probably are).

(+7)

I love that they have a Jekyll and Hyde dynamic going on. It really makes them stand out!

This is the first game I've played where we have the option to be a yandere too and I wish we could see more of this. 


Questions: Will the options to make us yandere stay in the full game? I would LOVE to see how that plays out.

Also, are Keith and Temebris self-aware yanderes like Monika from DDLC? They begged us not to close the demo so I was curious to know.

(+3)

Honestly dude I really really enjoyed this demo version it's hella fun finding all the endings (even though i needed a little help from the walk-through, aha ;3). 

Also I love that there will be a poly route in the completed version of the game, I never really find games that do that so as a poly person myself I'm pretttyyyy ecstatic to see what'll go down (0v0).

(+2)

adore it. mwah mwah!!! tots cant wait for the full game to come out!!!! started geeking out as soon as i saw that it got a update :3

Me encanto!!!!!, ya quiero que el juego este completo para disfrutarlo

GUYS..... HOW DO I GET KEITh'S NSFW ENDING,, DO I HAVE TO BE MEAN TO TEMBERIS...?? LIKE IM PRETTY MUCH JUST FOCUSING ON KEITH BUT NOT BEING MEAN TO TEMEBRIS :(( SAVE ME FLOWER BOY SAVE ME.. /ref

(+1)

Where do think you mess up I can help or maybe you can download the guide that the dev made

(+2)

NVM I got it! just had to get enraged at the girl giving her number oops-

Hi everyone, I wanna ask how do I continue the days like I always ended up getting the "to be continue" ending after the man that follows us get killed. I wanna continue playing it soo bad ugh. Plus I can't open the guide help 

(+2)

You will need to wait until the next update, unfortunately. The game isn't finished, that's why you get the "To be continued" screen. As for the guide, does it not open after you download it? Perhaps you don't have the program to read it. 

Yeah, maybe I don't have the right program but alright, I'm willing to wait until it's finished. BTW I'M LOVE THE GAME SO MUCH !!!

So we somehow turn into yandere for keith or something did we kill the green haired girl tho?

Oh shit no It's the waitress

(+1)

I played this a few weeks ago, and beforehand I hadn't thought it would be much of anything. But I'm still thinking about it now, the characters are just so charming, and everything is well written (especially the Keith nsfw scene wow omg??). I'm going to follow the development from now on, thank you!!!

i love this game it's really fun and both of the characters are really loveable but i just can NOT get temebris nsfw ending I've followed the guide but when i chose to go down to see what the sound is the second choice never comes up it's always just run and call the police i don't know what i'm doing wrong can someone help please

(+1)

Focus on getting the yandere points in the guide before you count your affection points. If you get the "cheer him up" option on Date 2, you may be going down the wrong route. 

i finally got it thank you

(1 edit)

I promised to replay this hella good game. :D

The music is perfect.

Especially Temebris Soundtrack is so good! I will definitely replay this game a lot. :D

I. Am. OBSSESSED OH MY GOODNESSSSS. I can't wait for the full game to be out dude this is amazing, especially the music. 

(-1)

In love. IMMEDIATELY. In love. I will be replaying this non-stop for the next week, thank you.

Hi sorry if i am wasting you time but i want to know if this gonna have a android version and sorry if i being rude

(+2)

It took some time to figure out how to get all the "bad" (good in my book) endings, the guide really helped. I can't wait for the full game, the polyamorous ending seems like my kinda ending, assuming it means that you get to date both Keith and Tenebris, that is what I am super looking forward to

(1 edit) (+2)(-1)

I used the guide to get 18 Tenebris points and 3 Yandere points, but it still is only prompting me to run and call the cops. I finally got it to work! Also the NSFW scene with you having that choice, marvelous! 

how did you make it workkkk

I'm sad that I can't use the only app I can play these kinds of games on, Ren'py, to play this game :'(

(1 edit) (+2)(-1)

OMG I loved especially the twist that we are completely insane as well, like I've been looking for a VN like this. Not so different is my favorite end :)

(+1)

guys how can i get the spicy scene? hlp

(-1)

Did you use the guide?

someone help me please im literally about to have a breakdown

When I released my game, the PC download doesn't work for linux. I had to upload a different version of the game just for Linux. 

I'm not sure what system the game was made on, but if it is Ren'Py the creator just needs to upload a Linux specific build for the game. 

bro how do you download it on Linux I don't know how to

Are you able to unzip the files after downloading them?

Loving the update! Thank you so much for continuing to make such a great game. 

Hi I'm confused how do I get to dates 2 and 3 it keeps ending at Keith good end after he leaves the apartment  :(  I wanna see the whole thing I love this game and have been waiting for the rest of it for a while. 

Nvm figured it out had to uninstall my previous game and then reinstall the new update. Playing now yay!!!!

Glad you managed to solve the problem! Have fun! ^^

Loved the game its soo good. Is there a way to track all the endings you get? I was so into it I forgot to keep track lmao.  It would be awesome to have something like that in the game. Cause I think I missed some of the endings.

awwww kaith is adorable!!! but temebris is cool!!!

They are beautiful and i love them
