this game is amazing, hope to see it completed soon and try it out!
I played this game... and complete all... THIS VERY GOOD!
So... and I from Russian, and my Name is... Gennady. :)
update in 2026?... maybe?... they said the game's still being worked on in their Dead Ringer announcement, so I'm not giving up hope yet. I hope it'll be a big chapter, considering how long it's taking!! a sighful.
Why bother giving the player an appearance if there's only one skin tone? At that point just use some generic grey placeholder.
It's so sad to not see any updates since 2 years ago t-t I'll still wait patiently to marry madhouse and our boy Atlas
sameee T-T teasing me like this, letting me kiss August but nothing more T-T (also love your url/nickname ^w^)
riiiight?! t-t We need more cryptids to smooch!!! (thank you dear :3 )
Will there be an update😔
At this point maybe not😭
please add russian because i have a lot of problem with english ಥ_ಥ
PLEASE UPDATE THIS I LOVE THIS GAMEEE, when is the next update??!
Can I romance more than one character?
I LOVE THIS GAME SMMM, GRR..I NEED A MADHOUSE MIKE PLUSHIE SMMMMMMMM
Is this still being worked on
Sorry, but the game won't download on Android. Is it a problem with my device or something?
it is a bug, i needed to put it in my computer
DEFINITELY I'M DOWNLOADING THIS TOMORROW BECAUSE IT'S 2AM RN BUT GOSH DANG IT SO MANY HOTTIES OMG
Is the fixed appearance permanent? The guy looks like a fly humanized.
Is it normal that when i choose what cryptid i would be if i could, the game literally crashes in all options??? I play in the android version.
Does i need to go on another version or is just my cell phone saying no to me?
I NEED more madhouse content I am going insane from the lack fanart or fanfiction of him it genuinely is so annoying having to resort to exclusively making up fake scenarios in my head as fun as it is
Here I thought 6 months for a major forsaken update was bad..
Anyway there's some neat stuff in the files that's unused which is cool
¿There will be more updates, right? This game is beautiful, I love it!! Is the game abandoned or still in development? It would be horrible for me to know that there will be nothing more, I love this game..
The game is still in development!
Damn.. And here I thought something more frustrating than waiting for a new chapter release for a ff was the biggest torture!
I downloaded it and thought nothing of this game, going in blind.
It totally won me over with madhouse mike..
But not only him, the whole game mechanics with the dice, the different character designs and storyline mixing together, building to this moment of a total cliffhanger..! I'd say good job with what you've made.
I also loovvee the soundtrack for fighting etc.(≧▽≦)
I'm literally sad over a game not having any new updates.. Can't even believe I'm writing all this, but 'Cryptid Crush' is probably my top 2025 'unfinished' game I tested.
Pretty sure it would get the top spot over all the other visual novels as well when finished, but that's a thought for the future.
Take this comment how you want, but i will be waiting for an update..
Downloading it anyways but is there nsfw? (Js asking lol)
Nope, only mild elements of romance as of ch2
not yet but there might be eventually idk. as far as i know there wont be any explicit sexual content tho.
将会在什么时候更新……两年了，我真的很爱这个狼人
I LOVE THIS SILLY GAME!!! <
it isnt letting me install the game, its coming up with errors and i cant copy or screenshot them
i would've loved to play this game but i have the attention span of a pebble and got bored after the chapter 0 title card, im sorry :<
I finished playing this a month ago and was expecting more :'( !! I love this game so much and I hope they come out with more!!!
2 years...2 years I've waited for the new update and still waiting </3 i need more maddie content asap
THIS IS SO FIRE WTH?! Fanart time! :D
I need Jamie
Words can not describe how much this game caught me by surprise (incredibly positive). The art is so nice to look at and the characters!! augh!!! the characters!! they're all so intriguing and fun to ponder in their own ways!! their designs rock!! every time a new character gets introduced you just cant help but start to like them after a bit.
Also the gravitational pull of mike is a real thing and it terrifies me. but this ain't about him.
There's so much happening just in the first few chapters which leaves you with so much to chew on and rotate around like a precious cube for a while. It's so fun!!
Really appreciate that as far as the story goes it doesn't force you to like, flirt with any of the characters. That may be a weird thing to say but please know that I do appreciate there being options to create different kind of bonds other than romantic ones, if that makes sense? Anyways-
I could keep going on and on honestly, so to summerize: this game is really really cool, absolutely adore the story and the little details. Hope the entire team who worked on this have a wonderful day! Take care! :]
Will it be updated soon? 🥲
this game was so fun!
Estará en idioma español???
i dont know why, but the it wont download for me
The beginning reminds me of Deltarune's opening, nice
What languages are available in the game?
