Sunflower Sanctuary

Oh, these poor girls~  My heart breaks for them: Watching Cecilia struggle to cope with her pain and trauma, only to be ostracized and met with further punishment in reply, hit painfully close to home, as did seeing Bernadette shutter away all of her emotions to try and protect herself.  That is to say, the character writing is very strong here~

And the art is so charming!  The heavy use of red and blue tones in particular was quite clever, dovetailing nicely with the recurring theme of the red ocean versus the blue sky~  That's making no mention, of course, of the delightfully expressive character art, both in the face sprites and the CGs, heheheh.

Excellent work, especially for a first VN!

this is really really pretty. the girls just wanan know what the fuck is up.... real. thank you for sharing this i was very invested in the story and now i look forward to seeing more from you

This is lovely! Had me tearing up at the end, and the art and colorwork is really beautiful

Tragic and beautiful.  The cute awkwardness of inexperienced lovers contrasts so nicely with the flowery descriptive language painting a beautiful picture of each scene.  Really liked the art and character designs as well.
