Love the writing, love how ballsy the first chapter was, love the crack fic vibes. The dialogue is very natural and ya got a great choice in sound design and the visuals/sprites are very cute too.
My one big complaint is the itch page. I'd rather have a comprehensive list of trigger warnings to expect throughout the whole VN instead of chapter summaries, so that the narrative can surprise me rather than advertising "chpt2 won't have x or y", which can take away some of the suspense.
I'm also curious what genres will this cover? Namely if it'll have romance as a plot or subplot, and if so, will there be routes or will it be kinetic? Will it be m/m? mono or poly? I get some of this might be spoilers but usually that kinda stuff's advertised from the start. Alsoooo I can't find the patreon link!
sorry for delay in answering! thank you for this! The first chapter does feel like it really comes out swinging. i'm happy it didn't scare you or anyone else off x3 i was worried i went a little too hard.
I think that's a very good point about the warnings on the itch page tho! i need to fix that, don't wanna give too much away.
Also I will say...next chapter is actually the final planned chapter for this game before I move to my other larger visual novel project, Lavender County, which is a gay southern furry dating sim! I'm not hanging Scavenger up forever, i dont think? but it's kinda my introductory attempt at working on visual novels so i hope it doesn't disappoint that i dont have much planned left for this! but there will be a little bit of romance in it~ as well as possibly more horror!
Very interested in seeing where this goes. My one piece of constructive criticism would be that the transition between POVs is very abrupt and disorienting.
is it supposed to end like that?? my game freezes right after (spoilers) the fox wakes up and screams, which is honestly so, SO eerie if its intentional but it looks like there's meant to be more in the game data.

That's interesting. You're the only person so far that's reported having that problem. Did it ever fix itself up or is your still freezing there?
