Its not often I find the way I view my life changed massively by something; I've read a fair number of longer emotional stories because they tend to be my favorite, I love stories that stick in my brain for years after in decent clarity because they changed my outlook on something. Most stories like this I've read have never truely ended in me changing myself as a result, and I intend to make this the first of hopefully many. I'm not sure if its my new meds, or my mental state being stripped bare this last week, or a growing fear of rejection, or the roughly 3 mental breakdowns I've had today, but what I have read of this story so far (just finished reading the section where the MC gets a care package from their friends) and I have not found myself crying so heavily at any media for an unknown amount of time. And I'm hoping that I'll stop lying about who and what I am to the people I love the most out of fear that they won't like me for it. I can handle a lost friend or two if it means I'm comfortable in my own skin. Thank you for this game so far, I hope that I can create something that impacts another person as much as this has me.
Edit: I've spent so long searching for a place where I can truly be me that I haven't stopped to ask I had already found it. This story has answered the question I forgot to ask.
Really loving the story so far. Love the characters and can't wait to see their tale unwind.
I'll admit there's a few little things in the story that kinda feels a little too modern for the 1980s. Not that that's a bad thing mind you, they don't detract from anything.
Lovin how things are going so far (just finished Chapter 5), but I did want to mention that many older tracks in the music player seem to not be unlocking even after hearing them while playing.
Honestly that was amazing. I can't wait for more content this novel is just to cute and did pack just never question them or did they know Smth already
I’M CRYING, I CANNOTTT-, I just finished reading Chapter Five, and I’m at loss of words. This is the second novel that has ever made me cry and feel like this. It was so beautiful. I truly don’t have the words for it, everything was incredible. I loved every piece of art, music and every second of the story. I sincerely hope this novel continues to receive the attention and love it deserves, and that it gets a good ending. I swear, the energy and need to scream I feel rn could fuel a rocket. Gonna get some cute stickers of them just for always remember the nice experience this VN gave me, and remember to read any upcoming updates.
I couldn't express my feelings when I finished Chapter Five correctly in words. Happiness, being moved, understanding and that profound sense of happiness felt from the heart. I really love this game very much. Thank you for your efforts.
Wish we have a full bio data for all the characters, love to get to know them more. Aside from that, finished chapter 5, loves the new sprites especially new Aldric. Hopefully we'll get more CGs for our duo couple when they spending time together or with their friends. Currently this VN have top all my favourite VN so far, hope to see the next updates soon 🌲
Just wrapped up Chapter 5, and wow—what an amazing ride. The emotional depth and everything else were off the charts. Totally worth the wait, and now I’m dying for the next chapter. This is hands down one of the best furry VNs I’ve played.
This poignantly captures some of my own memories at Cody's age, though in a different time than the mid-80s. First piercing, first crop-top, the new and electric touch of another... The writing is very evocative in its execution of these and other such small yet important details, and I appreciate that. This VN is certainly in my top 5 favourites, and I love the direction that it is heading in.
Yesterday on the comment section, they was a bot that was posting the same thing in other vns about a update version with a link and it appears to have disappeared.
I'm loving this VN, this is so well written and the art is beautiful ❤️, ...will Vincent be romanceable in the future? I can't avoid falling in love with him
Somehow i can't see it happening in the main story 😭 Considering the bonus section with the... Nude Sprites, maybe there will be a bonus storyline that isn't canon where instead of being with Aldrich, Cody gets with Vincent
Hey there! 🌟 I just wanted to express how much I absolutely love Northern Lights! The story is so captivating and beautifully crafted. I can’t wait to see what happens next! If possible, could you share any updates on the next chapter? Thank you so much! 💖✨
im gonna start crying for this next updateeeeee im so sad without this vn and i wish i could have this type of love in reality btw keep up the good work looooooooooooooove this vn so much
I have yet to finish this VN but im just put this out there (possible bug)
Whenever you scroll back to see a text you may of skipped by accident or maybe didnt understand all the music immdiately stops. Its really annoying because you have to go back all the way to the start of the scene where musi was originally playing. Its kinda sad to see the people that made the music just for it to be completly ignored by scrolling back by accident Edit: So turns out this only seems to happens with certain soundtracks and idk why
Will there be an explanation for all the strange things that are happening around Cody? Is there something supernatural at work? And will there be an Echo-style mass hysteria that will erupt?
I know you won't be able to say much because of spoilers, but are there any hints you can give me?
I have so many questions since the supposed sleepwalking Cody is doing and his vision of the coin felt like more than a coincidence since he's having too many things happening to him for it to be natural.
Those two, the vision of the movie theatre in New Orleans burning to the ground while some sinister presence is behind Cody dripping blood on him, and the fact that said presence seems to be watching him, stuff like that.
Oh, I have to be one of the only guys here that knows what a vcr or vhs tapes are, or even who lived in the 80s!!! Jesus I'm fuckin old as dirt when I know all the shit they're referencing in a VN set in the mid 80s. I want to know what kind of truck Aldric drives, better be a BullNose Ford.
Probably has a small lift, some 33x12.50R15's , a 4spd manual with the bull low gear, it has to be the 300 inline 6 as no one who went off road back then would have anything but for the reliability alone not to mention the fuel economy😉.
This novel is in my top 3 of all time and it's not even finished yet. Maybe it's because all the locations remind me of Canada. I hope they release the next chapter soon, I have to know what happens now that Cody is trying to live his own truth. Hope he confesses his attraction to Aldric (great name btw!!) and what's up with the ghosts of the old town, and which one of them didn't admit their truth before passing, causing them to whistle that longing tune.
just downloaded it last night, started reading today... The vibes are so good 😭 the MC is really relatable for me, which is a first in a long while with visual novels. his whole internal struggle like omg. Aldric is.. such a green flag. i loved him immediately on sight haha.
What's scaring me is the fact that i might run out of chapters by reading too fast, because let's be real, that'll definitely happen for sure.. I'm so excited to continue tho!
I loved the storyline.and the Excursion soo good,that part where that fox God rest he's soul.reminds me what happend to Frank God rest he's soul,but he wasnt shot he just got clapped by natural disasters while doing he's business
Side-note: mushrooms are one of my special interests, and the scene with the bear's head tooth actually made me jump with joy. I was so happy. And for it to be a mushroom that's known to taste like crab: a staple food of where the main character grew up??? Amazing. Not so sure them eating it raw was a great idea, though... haha.
I literally started playing a few hours ago and miss Tobin so muchhh, like TAKE ME BACK I wanna go back to Tobin! (I say as they drag me into the padded marshmallow room)
Did anyone have trouble with loading your save? Mine will no longer load. I don’t mind restarting but I would like to know how to prevent this from happening if it’s something on my end.
This is a known issue with RenPy that we're working on a fix for. We plan to implement a chapter select in build 5 to hopefully make this issue less of a pain.
Hi! Checking out the gallery i notice that some cgs have some variations. I replayed the game but none of them appear, for example; the cinema miss 2 and the whatch house too. Is this a bug or are they no implement yet?
Nope. I don't have SFW mode turned on. Here is a better example of what I mea. Already replayed the game if I missed something and looks like dont. Sorry if I bother too much. I'm just curious xD
Ooooooo I understand what you mean now. Yes it is a little misleading because of how the gallery is programmed. The 3 empty spots (and 2 for the cinema) are just blank because there's no additional art for those blank 'frames'.
Hi, just downloaded the update today and moved my save files over, but whenever I try to load into those saves an error pops up saying "an exception has occured" aswell as something about not being able to find a place to stop rolling back to.
Hey there, some instances of save issues do pop up between builds that we are working on resolving with a Chapter Select. You should not need to move the save folder, only extract the new build as a new folder. If it still gives you an issue the quick fix right now is to turn on "Skip Unseen Text" in the preferences menu, then in game you can press your tab key or the 'skip' button when starting a new file, it will speed through stopping at each choice option for you to choose.
Stop at the end of the crop top scene and you'll be at chapter 4. Apologies for the inconvenience

Unrelated but human genitalia toggle when /hj+1 on the genitalia toggle, the animal ones are very off putting.
this is the kind of thing you should keep to yourself 😭 Also, it's the same amount of effort to watch it on youtube as it is to read it here --
You right
Wow that was great! Just when i thought ch 5 would end it just kept going, looking forward to future reads!
Lovin how things are going so far (just finished Chapter 5), but I did want to mention that many older tracks in the music player seem to not be unlocking even after hearing them while playing.
Thanks for giving the heads up about the music player. I'll see if I can recreate it and find a fix for it! ~ Truffle
This last chapter was EVERYTHING!And it made me cry rivers :(
Honestly that was amazing. I can't wait for more content this novel is just to cute and did pack just never question them or did they know Smth already

whats the other novel?

ohh god the mysterie get thicker and I love it! I want to know everything.
I will miss the old sprites🥲
It's like dawn chorus and repeat, the art is better we just have to get use to it :')
I would say the art here is better than repeated
I think they both bring out charm in their respective vns
Its june 7th y'all
It's so true and I've been waiting since morninggg
Fr so happy its finally out

Scam bot alert! If you see a post saying "Update Version here" with a link, it's a scam. It's appearing in other vn comment section. Take precarious.
Yesterday on the comment section, they was a bot that was posting the same thing in other vns about a update version with a link and it appears to have disappeared.
This is a really beautiful novel i can't wait for more future updates from these. I really love aldric he is just so cute a adorable.

I love so much this history
Обожаю, одна из самый моих любимых новелл. Олдрик такой симпатяга, такой вкусный, прям щас бы в его объятьях утанул. Ааааа не могу.
Сюжет интересный, персонажи классные, Олдрик лучший. Он так поддерживает Коди, обнимает его. Его хвостик, его ушки, румянец... ой не могу.
Жду продолжение с нетерпением.
Will there be an explanation for all the strange things that are happening around Cody? Is there something supernatural at work? And will there be an Echo-style mass hysteria that will erupt?

I have so many questions since the supposed sleepwalking Cody is doing and his vision of the coin felt like more than a coincidence since he's having too many things happening to him for it to be natural.
What kind of strange things? Like the whistling or the coin thing?
Those two, the vision of the movie theatre in New Orleans burning to the ground while some sinister presence is behind Cody dripping blood on him, and the fact that said presence seems to be watching him, stuff like that.
Awesome :)
It hits nice hahaha good for a change a VN that takes a more natural approach for romance, instead of jumping to sex LOL
And that mystery touch is very interesting
Waiting for more!
Oh, I have to be one of the only guys here that knows what a vcr or vhs tapes are, or even who lived in the 80s!!! Jesus I'm fuckin old as dirt when I know all the shit they're referencing in a VN set in the mid 80s. I want to know what kind of truck Aldric drives, better be a BullNose Ford.
Aldric drives a 1970 Ford F-100 Ranger dual tone paint job.
And speaking of car...I wonder what kind of wood-panel wagon station that Vinny drives ?
Vincent drives a 1978 Jeep Wagoneer
A proper suv, not true station wagon though. An AMC Eagle awd wagon couldve worked too
Probably has a small lift, some 33x12.50R15's , a 4spd manual with the bull low gear, it has to be the 300 inline 6 as no one who went off road back then would have anything but for the reliability alone not to mention the fuel economy😉.

WHERE IS THE UPDATE, I CANT SURVIVE WITHOUT AN UPDATE
Really?,you think its like making a counterfeits with a printer and you cant survive?.bro you know how this works,they do the work and we wait EZ
It's a wonderful experience: the music, the characters and the story are all top-notch. Can't wait to read more! ♥
I don't know why i keep torturing myself playing these beautifully written visual novels with romance that even the heartless would yearn for
I genuinely can't wait for more of this.
Side-note: mushrooms are one of my special interests, and the scene with the bear's head tooth actually made me jump with joy. I was so happy. And for it to be a mushroom that's known to taste like crab: a staple food of where the main character grew up??? Amazing. Not so sure them eating it raw was a great idea, though... haha.

Noted & thanks for the response. For now I’ll just replay it, I really enjoy the story! Great job everyone! ❤️
Loving this VN so far! The story is engaging, the art is uniquely stylized, and the romance is moving at a beautiful pace. Can't wait to see more!
i loveeeeee this vn so much im so happy it updated really good work i cant wait for more
