this game was sooooo amazing the demo was so good i can't think of how great the full games gonna be the art, the characters, the personalities everything is sooo good i can't wait for the full game!!
Just finished the demo and so hyped for the full game o.o if this lives up to what the demo promises, this will be one of the best VNs I've ever read. So far, the characters seem really interesting and well thought-out (and all fucking hot xD) the protag and their internal monologue feels extremely reasonable and befitting the situation and what little I've seen of the world, it's seem equally deep. In short, the money for the full version is already set aside xD Absolutely recommend to anyone who likes dark stories...or well, anyone who likes to read, really!
Each character is so interesting!! When the full game comes out I can't wait to play through everyone's route and get close to them (except Leander, he will be last).
Okay so the order in which the characters appears in the cover of "Everytime we touch" may be random, but I couldn't help but think it wasn't, so here's my interpretation of the different routes of Touchstarved, based on what lyrics play when the characters are on screen :
Ais :
"I still hear your voice when you sleep next to me
I still feel your touch in my dreams
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you, it's hard to survive"
Ais may keep secrets from MC about him, fearing of hurting them (?) Secrets concerning the friend that lives in his head/about his powers/his origin as a Monster. But keeping MC at arms length to keep them safe make him miss the proximity they could have, and he might feel weak to not be able to do anything about it.
Vere :
"'Cause every time we touch
I get this feeling
And every time we kiss
I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast
I want this to last
Need you by my side"
Vere was always depicted as this sly, malicious, horny and extremly powerful being. I don't remember who (maybe Mhin ?), but I know someone said that he sleep around with people just for the fun of it. We know he and Ais are friends with benefits, so maybe MC and Vere might develop a similar kind of relationship (I don't know if Vere only sleeps with Monsters or also humans, so tell me if I'm wrong.) With all that, Vere is very familliar with being intimate with a lot of people, and might not consider these kind of interactions as as intimate as other people. The fact that he doesn't like a lot of people & and isn't used to love someone may make him desperate for love, so if he falls in love with MC, he may become really clingy and posessive with them, wanting to never let them go.
Kuras :
"'Cause every time we touch
I feel this static
And every time we kiss
I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so
I can't let you go
Want you in my life"
I suspect Kuras to have worked in the Senobium. He is one of the most reserved characters at this time, not letting much out about him. This reservation might make him, too, touch starved, so falling in love with MC will be a very big deal for him as he, contrary to Vere, isn't used to being intimate.
Mhin :
"Your arms are my castle
Your heart is my sky
They wipe away tears that I cry
The good and the bad times
We've been through them all
You make me rise when I fall"
Mhin seems to also be cursed, by some sort of bird demon. This is why they want so much to go to the Senobium (to find a cure like MC). My guess is that they went through a lot of things, but never really came to term with them, as they raise barriers between them and everyone. So, falling in love with MC, would be the first time they allow themselves to be vulnerable. They & MC will support each other through the good and the bad.
Leander :
"'Cause every time we touch
I get this feeling
And every time we kiss
I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast
I want this to last
Need you by my side
'Cause every time we touch
I feel this static
And every time we kiss
I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so
I can't let you go
Want you in my life
'Cause every time we touch
I get this feeling
And every time we kiss
I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast
I want this to last
Need you by my side."
Leander's part of the song is by far the more intense and desperate. We know that, while some parts may be honest, his good guy side is an act, and he hides something. His catch phrase in the trailer is "I can keep you safe, as long as you trust me.", implying he is powerful. My guess is that in his route he will become really projective of MC, which might indicate that he lost someone he loved and is now desperate to keep the ones he love safe.
I desperately need to play the full game!!! This is just the demo and it's already so story-rich and fun. The lore is crazy??? The characters are all so interesting, too! I audibly gasped and laughed many times while reading their dialogue. I've already recommended this game to several of my friends!! (Ais and Leander by the way???)
After swearing at every single character I've met, they're actually not that bad! Not saying the game or concept of it is bad (THIS IS AMAZING), that's just how I am in romance visual novel games :3 (They're my favorite!!)
Yeah same here but with silicon. Even tried to open it via Terminal like it says in the pdf but that didn't work either. It should be 1-download 2-unzip 3-play but they had to make it incredibly complicated for no reason.
So they're still working on the game? I heard about this game a year ago but got scared when I saw that there hasn't (seemingly) been much progress made since then.
this game is so good i forgot it had romance routes i just wanted to make them all sit in a circle and play duck duck goose. im invested now + i will die for mhin's little gay ass
omfg this game is amazing!! even if it's just the demo, everything about it is so well done, the mix of horror and romance is just chef kiss, and the art style??! stunning!!! love everything about this game!! can't wait for it to be realeased.

Can you play it on IPad? Just curious.

What did Leander do to you lmao just curious
Absolutely nothing lmao. I simply dislike him because he reminds me of a generic playboy wich is not my type of guy haha
Valid reason even though he's one of my favourites, he was so sweet thoo 🤭
I'm so bloody obsessed. Can't wait for more to be released. I'm completely infatuated with this game. (✿◕‿◕✿)
Leander is giving Brendon Fraser "The Mummy" vibes and I love it!!

I keep coming back every so often to check on the comments of more people becoming obsessed with this, the comments don't disappoint :3
After swearing at every single character I've met, they're actually not that bad! Not saying the game or concept of it is bad (THIS IS AMAZING), that's just how I am in romance visual novel games :3 (They're my favorite!!)
why would you do that ☹️
I get moody when I haven't slept for more than 20 hours ( ・３・) The ones I sweared at did turn out to be my favorite ones, though! :DD
ive done the instructions on Mac on terminal but it genuinely just won't open I dunno what to do 🥲🥲
LOVED THE GAME, I will not care if the final game is paid because this is awesome!!
help i just realized i played the demo and i-
This is probably one of my new favorites! i cant wait for more
Does this game have a fandom? If so, I need to join it right now! I have been doing drawings of my character named Seraphina. 10/10 game!
i absolutely need more! this game is sooo good!!
The new updated version cannot open on Mac. I have a Mac Intel and I keep getting an error saying that the application cannot be opened
Yeah same here but with silicon. Even tried to open it via Terminal like it says in the pdf but that didn't work either. It should be 1-download 2-unzip 3-play but they had to make it incredibly complicated for no reason.
Wait wdym updated version??
It was just updated 15 days ago. I played the game previously using the Mac Intel file, but now with the new update it doesn't open.
So they're still working on the game? I heard about this game a year ago but got scared when I saw that there hasn't (seemingly) been much progress made since then.
lol, i followed them on Instagram so ik when the full ver is out!
so far it's supposed to be in 2025 but the wait is so worth imo !!
that’s so much time to wait ajwnqjnsuwns 😭😭😭😭
You'll need to change your terminal from zsh to bash, you can look it up and its pretty simple, you just paste something in
this game is so good i forgot it had romance routes i just wanted to make them all sit in a circle and play duck duck goose. im invested now + i will die for mhin's little gay ass

omfg this game is amazing!! even if it's just the demo, everything about it is so well done, the mix of horror and romance is just chef kiss, and the art style??! stunning!!! love everything about this game!! can't wait for it to be realeased.
