Midsummer Maiden Massacre by thenez
It's Midsummer, a time of the midnight sun and celebration of fertility. You as the leader of a fresh cult have decided that this year is your time to choose a wife. Luckily for you, the members of your circle just happen to be four single women. Unfortunately for them, your future marriage will also require a great sacrifice.
Note: It's recommended you play the game on our itch.io page, since this version has errors whenever dialogue choices happen that do not break the game but are annoying. The itch.io version does not have this issue.
This game is not suitable for children and has content that might be disturbing to some players.

Great game! Although choices seems a bit weird(it looks like I had to choose wife twice) and also laggy. But amazing overall!

I've never played a visual novel before but I think this was well executed. To me, the profanity felt a bit out of place at times though. The visuals and the sound design are very well done, though.

I think my favorite part are the backgrounds. I absolutely love the color palette used. The character sprites are lovely too. It's clear that a lot of effort went into this game, and it ended up looking very polished and nice. :)

It's pretty beautiful, but I'm not a fan of short stories

Those shrooms really did hit hard. It was a shame it wasn't longer, the end really came out of nowhere and really didn't get to make any choices. Other than that, generally positive experience.

I'm glad that this wasn't really that much of a dating VN but a perfectly absurd little story with some details and especially an ending worth of let's say Tarantino or Coen brothers movie. I seriously like what you did with the ending and it's good that there is the option to skip to it sooner to try out variations.
