Entangled Hearts
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Story
Prince Cas had his work cut out for him- cursed by a dragon whilst still in his Mother's womb, he is fated to suffer excruciating pain and nightmares come nightfall. Once he turns eighteen, he sets off in search of a cure before the curse can spread to his heart.
On the way, he encounters Damian, a no-nonsense mercenary who would be on his side as long as he's paid one gold a day and a little fairy that communicates exclusively in soft buzzes and kaomojis.
Play as Cas as he adventures onwards.
Learn more about his people, his travel companions and most importantly about Cas himself. Will he be able to cure his predicament or die a premature death as foretold by the elders?

I am sobbing right now. It's over... but it was so good... no business making me feel this way. Thank you for your wonderful story. I cry
After reading closing spaces I knew this game was going to be another wonderful gem, but I still wasn't prepared for all this wonderfulness T-T Thank you so much for your stories, they are truly special <3
I loved it. I cried a lot 😭😭 The story is wonderful, very good!!
AAAAA this was absolutely AMAZING!! I was a bit skeptical at first but I'm so glad I gave it a try!! I was giggling and even crying during some parts. Although the pacing was a bit fast, it all built up perfectly to the climax. THANK YOU for this wonderful game!! I treasure my little dragon heart. <3
really cute and sweet, I still think about them after playing I really loved their dynamic. I know the sunshine-grump duo isn't new but the way you wrote them felt really fresh
This was such an amazing read. I love everything about it! Was not expecting to get a roller coaster of emotions from this but I'm not complaining one bit. I was incredibly hooked and would love to see more of these characters. Thank you for sharing this lovely game!!!
I am so upset that I waited so long to read this! It was absolutely lovely! I wish I could forget it so I could experience it again! 10/10!
i was just wondering, what determines the ending you get? i got the witch's apprentice ending like 4 times in a row before it gave me a different ending, and I don't think I made any different choices
What a beautiful story and game! Both characters are very charming and their interactions with each other feel so natural and organic. The artworks (especially the very expressive charactersprites) are gorgeous and the music fits the atmosphere nicely. The story is enchanting and the drama really hit me in the feels, it is well crafted and at no point feels forced. I was so relieved with the ending I got, as in my mind it could have gone down the other way easily. I cannot believe that it was made in only one month, what an achievement! If there was an option to pay or donate, I would, because this game is worth it!
I've just gotten through this game, and let me tell you I was HOOKED! Played it all in one sitting! I'm actually impressed by how you managed to make this for a jam. At first the very different styles of the backgrounds were a bit bothersome to me, but considering the size of this game that was made for a jam?! I can't fault it at all, and it's not really a problem! Though I was wondering who the artists are since they aren't credited!
Now, let's get to the story. It was excellent, and beautifully told, too. I was so charmed by the relationship the characters developed, so intrigued by what the nightmares were, and boy that reveal! It sure was heartbreaking, I was tearing up! And then the resolution... it was sweet, lovely! Gosh, I just enjoyed reading it so much! Thanks for making such a lovely story!
I loved this game <3 I really like when one of the protagonists is a cutie and the other one is grumpy hahaha I really liked the relationship they formed, and although you made me cry with the drama, I'm satisfied with the ending!!
I've also played "Flour hour" (I love Souma so much) and "Closing spaces", your games are amazing!!
I love this game so much. I don't think I've ever really tried to play a dating game with only one romance option, as the risk is high I won't like them, or I'll find the chemistry lacking.
But oh my god, they're both so cute, and I love them. I'd happily play either MC, I'd happily date either of them separately and I love them together. Awww <3
Also not sure what I did to get this reaction but...
Thanks for playing and taking the time to leave a line! ✨(≧▽≦)
Super happy the Bois are date-able!! But oops, they're taken. And will be taken for the rest of their lives if they can help it haha ಡ ͜ ʖ ಡ
Oh my Goodness!! I legit cackled at that screenshot. Why is that placement so perfect?
DAMIAN HONEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!? IN FRONT OF PRIM, NO LESS.
(Kind of tempted to just leave that bug in for the lolz)
Yes wholesome duo, they're the cutest. They'll have the cutest family~ I would love to see their wedding, it'd be cool to see the cultural mix!
Lmao, I know right, it's the best bug I've had to date tbh! XD
Great game! My only quibble is that there are some typos, but they don’t detract from an enjoyable story and lovable characters. :)
I don't know how to put it into words of how amazing this game is. I really enjoyed the art style and everything. I loved every part of the game. I do play some romance visual novels, (because I like those types of VNs) and this is got to be one of the good ones I've played, and one that I liked. I am shocked that you only made it in a month, and I realised that I made the right choices first try haha. I normally don't write comments/reviews, but I uh just-, the game was really good.
Wooh, that's high praise! Thank you so much! It gives immense joy to know that people enjoy this little story. <( ̄︶ ̄)↗
The team really pulled through and hustled to get everything out in a month, I would say haha.
PS - Congrats on making it the first try, lol. The point system was a little merciless ( ≧Д≦)
This is a really beautiful game. Thank you for making it. I really feel for all the characters. It is definitely one of my favourites, and a game I'll end up playing again.
Aaah, really glad to hear! (✿^‿^)
Thanks for giving the game a chance and leaving a line.
I loved this so much. The story was incredible, the characters were absolutely precious, and I just loved it! Thank you so much for making this and sharing it <3
Thanks a bunch for playing and taking the time to comment! Means a lot! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧
Glad you think the bbys were precious. ಥ‿ಥ
This was such a lovely game! A perfect mix of wholesome and angst, with a well-developed storyline, a vivid fantasy world and some really killer art (I especially love Damian’s character design :3)
The amount of angst I end up writing always concerns me, and I'm glad you think it was a perfect mix. (◍•ᴗ•◍)✧*。
Damian is here to steal HEARTS
so that he can give his to Cas *is shot*Thanks for playing! ✨
this is such a lovely game! It felt like reading a fairy tale, and very emotional at the end, all the drama! Amazing job on this!
Can't write a romance without DRAMA hahaha.
Thanks for playing and leaving a line! Also super glad you liked it! (~ ̄³ ̄)~
I LOVED IT
The story, characters, lore of the world, EVERYTHING.
The only thing that made me feel sorry was that there weren't more CGs or that there weren't explicit sexual scenes lol
Will you do a sequel in the future?
Pleaseee<3
Glad you liked it!! ヾ(・ω・*)ノ And thank you for taking the time to leave a review~
Ahh, writing explicit scenes aren't my forte...🙈
I mean, there's definitely potential for a sequel where the trip travels North to the dragon's land and what not. But whether it will happen I can't really say for sure right now haha !! Maybe after the Bois love in my head for a few more months lmaooo. But uhm, the fact you like them enough to want a sequel! I'm a puddle of mush (♡ω♡ ) ~♪
I love it so far, the concept is wonderful and the art is topnotch from what I've seen, but I can't get past meeting the witch no matter what I do she says I'm boring ;-; rip
Aaaaah, apologies! The points/margin of error on that one is a little tight ^^
Hope it doesn't deter you from continuing! ಥ‿ಥ
I've written a guide down here
> Listen to Him
> Interfere
> Offer him a hand
> Thank her
thank you sm!! It definitely doesn’t deter me, I cannot wait to continue now that I actually know how to :DDD
(*˘︶˘*).。*♡ its been a while sine the last game release. Im so excited for this one
Haha yeah! New project out of the blue lol
Hope you enjoy it! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧
AURHGHGHGHGHSHGSHGJH The concept... the ending..................... THE ART!!!! I am in pain... maybe even more pain than-
Anyways coherent thoughts are holy cow this is an amazing work, especially seeing as y'all made it in only a month! Applause and flowers, and a little bit of honey too, to all of you (♡ヮ♡)(♡ヮ♡) These characters will now live in my brain rent free. Also 10/10 emoticon choices
More pain than WHO?! lmao
Ooh! We'll take all the flowers and honey and applause very graciously~ ヾ(・ω・*)ノ
Issokay, go ahead and charge Cas rent, he has the money. (~‾▿‾)~
But in all seriousness, thanks a lot for playing and taking the time to leave a comment. It means a lot! Cherry on the cake is that you enjoyed it! ^^
