I often wonder if there's a 100% heterosexual man out there who's waiting for and reading every update

(+3)

Omg, I loved Bjorn's new update so much, its kind of crazy how much I relate to him. But does anyone know when Rune's next update is planned? He's by far my favorite character

(+4)

After a long time, I go back to this vn, to mikko, and man... Why are you teasing us? (btw: This is one of my favorites visual novels guys, incredible  job).

NNNNGGGGHHHHHHH

(+5)

I LOVED IT, I REALLY LOVED IT, BJØRN MY FAVORITE CHARACTER I LOVE HIM, one of my favorite stories, I really felt a connection with the character that felt like it was pain and love, too realistic, Bjørn's concern for his parents, his self-discovery, his place of origin, his shyness and his tastes are something that left me in love, this is the update I was waiting for 😭🙏

(1 edit) (+4)

I AM BACK! It has been a while since I last played this game. Mostly because the first time I played it, I went under a month-long recovery process. This game shaked my entire perspective of the world around me, of how I see relations and what I want to be and do.

I was very worried that if I played it again, I would be too shaken for my exams, so I had been putting off updating it for a loooong time. But there I am.

I looked up some new routes, tried new paths, finlly found how to get Klaus route, and advanced Jorgen and Rune along Lake. Thorulf has been putted off. Its with his route that I realized how some fantasm I had were just... not good. It openend my eyes on a lot, which ended up with me being slightly mad at Thorulf ^^'.

So far, here are my thoughts on the game.
Writting: 10000/10
Mind-blowing, sentimental, heartbreaking, amazing, scary and beautiful are some of the words to describe it. Keo Blau and Branny, you are both amazing. Thank you for sharing your art with us.

Music and sound: 12/10
in Dawn Chorus, musics are as much a part of the game as the writting itself. Keo, you're musics are so- No. They are the best I have ever heard in any novel-like game. They always work so well with the scene, matching it perfectly and adding depth and meaning to it. Like Mikko, you're an amazing composer and thank you for having the courage to share it with the world.

Art: 15/10
A game without visual can be good. But what Deffie, Aku and Roborak  created simply made Dawn Chorus a game far more better than any others. Every character is lively, they feel, look and act like real persons both in words and image. If I ever need to commision for my sona, I know where I'll go first. 

 Overall: infinity/10
Dawn Chorus is THE game that changed my life for the better. I played great games, Helldiver, Outer Wild, No Man's Sky, Hollow Knight... But none of them is even close to the impact Dawn Chorus had, and still has, on my life. If they deserve to appear on the podium of the best games ever made, Dawn Chorus may as well be the jury that gave them their place. 

Looking forward for more of your work. You have all my support, love and thanks.

(Sorry for any mistakes in my writting! English isn't my native language, though I think I'm pretty good at it. Love and kisses!)

(+3)

I also see a lot of people being sad that one day, the game will be done. To that I'll say...

If you stop making games, I'm coming after you Dawn Chorus team. If it's because of financial troubles, watch your back because I will stab you with a lot of Kofi donations. If it's because you're tired, I will have to wait and give as much support as I can. AND I'LL DO IT TRUST ME! I GOT ENOUGH PATIENCE FOR YOU TO RECOVER!And if it is for any other reasons... I'll be there, doing my best to help. I will find you, and I will help you.

"Can you forgive me...?"
(+1)

Someone tell me why this is one of the best things I've read in my life? The storytelling is so immersive in a way that had me hooked from start to the "to be continued." I can't wait for when this game is completely finished across all eight routes! I hope you have plenty of success regarding this vn, and I will TOTALLY be supporting you on your patreon once I get the extra funds to. This genuinely made me think about life differently when I was in a bad place. Thank you!

(+2)

Dawn Chorus is the best thing I have ever read in my entire life. Not joking. As a bisexual man, this hit me to my absolute core. I first went through the Lake route and it was genuinely so heart warming. I no joke went all the way into Lakes part start to finish which ended up taking me 5 hours nonstop. I now just finished Rune’s route and let me tell you, it is an EXPERIENCE. The way the lore in this game was so deep and detailing was so good. I cried today and I cried yesterday finishing Lakes route. I’m genuinely so happy I found this visual novel as it is now something I will hyper-fixate on for a LONG time. And as I may add the music in this game is SOOO good and added so much to the atmosphere. Thank you Dawn Chorus, for changing my life.

-Eddie

(PS. I’m gonna need the Lake and Rune updates SOOOON)

Dear Dawn Chorus,

I’m a huge fan of your game. I’m currently working on a non-profit, unofficial translation of the game into Russian to help make it more accessible to players in Russia.

However, I’ve encountered a technical issue: the game’s fonts don’t support Cyrillic characters. This causes display problems like missing glyphs or broken text.

Could you please:

  1. Share guidance on how to modify/add fonts to support Russian language?
  2. Or provide access to the game’s font files (if possible) so I can adapt them?

I want to emphasize that this is a passion project—I’m not profiting from it and will credit your team prominently. If there are legal guidelines for unofficial translations, I’m happy to follow them.

Thank you for creating such an amazing game! I’d be grateful for any help you can offer.

Best regards, 

Shadow of life

omg are you telling me (HUGE SPOILERS FOR JORGEN ROUTE)


















THERE IS A POLY ROUTE WITH LAKE?

(+1)

YESSSSSSSSSS

(+3)

Ello, well i decided to play Dawn Chorus bc i found some free time in my night schedule and give the Vn a chance and actually i was extemely surprised of how good it was, it was different from other  furry Vns like Echo or Adastra, and a nice change from heavy emotional furry Vns and the vibe of the game was quite confy. And for the devs: Just remember to give my boy Klaus some screen time, okay??

(+2)

Best vn I played, one time I felt too emotional I cried and I never cry at movies etc. So yeah, 👏 well done man, keep up the work on the game is so good, kinda finished the rune's route bit he's route isn't all the way done but I would like to see them together more closer than hugs 😉

(+3)

I just finished Mikko's route... (SPOILERS)
























Guys do you think their going to get together? I don't know if there are going to be multiple endings, I just selected what I thought would bring them together more. I got to the end and Mikko agreed to sleep in Arvo's room. Is this the path to the good ending??? Idk and I'm so desparate for them to make ammends and just get together already, so if anyone knows anything you would be my hero ;-;

(2 edits)

I was abt to send you a whole bible explaining what happens but.. I find it on my own and it felt.. I dont have the words.. Do the same, you will enjoy it even more than just some person explaining to you. 

(Play Rune's route my favorite.) and for the endings ill explain...

just always hang with the one you want to route, always always. There would be a few times you need to separate but try to be with him as much as you could (with the options to hang with em. ) 

(+1)

Tysm. I just need the update soooon. I've played Mikko's route twice now but got to the same ending point every time with the to be continued ;-; (In my room with him). Though I do have to say Rune's route is my favorite. It was the first one I played and I replayed it like 4 times :P

I love that buff deer. His route makes me feel things. (In a good way).

Hehe dw, also try hanging out with everyone so youll find out what happens with yoy and miko.. But ig you wanna know.. 


You cant date miko, there wont be a second chance, but something will always change, and thats is that he forgives you and you can be frens with im :3

I disagree...The route isn't finished, so I don't think we know you can't date him yet.

This shook me to my core. Genuinely. Going in, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. All I knew is that the art was amazing and I was curious. After playing thought, a quote comes to mind: "I feel so... Strange. Like I'm fundamentally different, but also... Still the same person I was at the top of the stairs." 

Couldn't give this higher praise. I did cry for a solid ten minutes after I finished the ending.

Big Spoilers (for Torulf and Lake in particular):


















I originally went through Lake. They seemed nice and I wanted to know more about them, and I don't regret it one bit. Genuinely heart warming. I did however make a second save and (I do regret this part) played through the game a second time and stayed in Torulf's room. I didn't think anything was wrong at first, (which is my fault) because despite my paranoia I am one for praise. I never said I wasn't pathetic. Sorry.

Anyway, I have now dubbed Torulf: 'Poison', because despite his design having no purple coloration except his eyes, his name is in purple, which is (as far as I'm aware) heavily associated with royalty and poison. No I didn't have to look that up I am smart :3

Seriously, the audacity of that overconfident fiend >:(

Spoilers for Rune's Route















I'm sorry but... this implies the "Broken Harvours" Vn isn't cannon? Like, Rune is acting like he is just figuring out he's Gay! 

(+4)

Are yall going to put the Halloween special of mikko again, pleasee💔💔

(+6)

Jørgen is the cutest boy

(+1)

Idk why, but "Wallet," by Adrianne Lenker and Buck meek makes me think of Devon. Maybe it's the melancholic/wandering sound. Anyway.... That was it. 

(+1)

SPOILERS FOR RUNE:






I'm upset how short this update was, but I'm also glad i get more time with my deer before we go. This update couldn't have come at a better time for me in terms of the writing. The past 2 weeks I have been listening to really emotional music (Have A Nice Life, Car Seat Headrest, Black Country New roads) and the writing here is exactly how i have been feeling towards music. Same as with how you describe winter, it's exactly how I have always felt about it, writing out. I cried 2 times during this update, I really love this deer and the romance involved reminded me of how I think of my boyfriend but never am able to put it into words. 

As much as I'm looking forward to the next update for my deer, Take your time there is no rush. I want as much time with him as possible

IKRRR especially the Arvo's line "Now it feels we're equal"(or something like that, I don'r quite remember)

(+3)

aaaaaaaa i love jorgen but i cant stand waiting for more ;_;

(+8)

JØRGEN UPDATE!!!! YIPPEEEE

(+2)

the only bad thing abt dawn chorus is that it's gonna end :/

I agree, they should have more sequels to it

(+3)(-5)

As a bi dude I wish gudrun or her friends were options

(+2)

I like that black cat very much. Why are there no more stories about him?

Is it possible to continue to update this story line in the later development?

(+4)

He's getting more content every few updates this year, but at a slower pace than the rest of the characters. It is a secret route after all! 

(1 edit) (+2)

man, I wish Travis was an option

(+4)

I just wanted to thank the whole team for such a lovely experience. Looking forward for what else your brilliant minds can do :)

I posted on here a couple days ago but it seems it didn't go through, spoilers for the entirety of Rune's route












I just really wanted to share how much of an impact this game has had on me, though I may ramble a little bit. I played Rune's route about a week ago now, and it feels like my worldview has completely shifted.

I initially chose Rune's route for his chirpy and delightful personality. He is fun to be around, enjoys a lot of different things and overall is very dedicated to what he does. When he started to open up little by little, I got to see a different side of things. I've always done so much, pushed myself so hard. Like Rune, I've had a lot of 'hobbies' and extracurriculars. I wanted people to like me, admire me, just acknowledge me. Truthfully seeing Rune open up made me feel less alone. It made me feel seen

Then came his day 3 'trip.' And man, this is really the moment I realized this work was something completely different. Very few works are so evocative and introspective. A lot of it hit very close to home. It stirred in me something so deep and primal, so intertwined in my very being. I'm doing all these things, but to what end? What do I even want? What do I need? Who even am I, if not the sum of my accomplishments? I got absolutely absorbed into it, like time was standing still, stuck in moments in time yet at the same time none at all. I can't really explain it, it felt so surreal. After this I had to take a break to process everything. 

Then I played through his day 4, the philharmonic and the conversation thereafter. There was Rune's realization. 

'This fire all around me, coming in waves, it's love. My own love that propels me forward, my own love that gives my life meaning.'
'My own love that I never tapped into. It's always been here, dormant, until the gates burst open.'
'Love is simple. I pour my feelings out and they pour back into me in an equal amount.'
'And I have so much to give. I never knew that, thinking I had to be successful, that I had to earn my value. I never thought of looking inside to search for it. I never thought I had something to offer.'

I cried. I ugly cried so much. I've been in a burnout for more than a year now, and I also got diagnosed with a chronic illness. I've been struggling so much with finding a place where I feel like I belong. That I can still do things of value, to prove that I deserve to be loved and acknowledged. Just putting so much pressure on myself for everything in my life. But while I was reading this, it all came down. And I too, realized I have so much love. My very existence gives my life meaning. I don't have to live up to anyone's expectations, not my own either. I don't have to achieve anything. A huge weight was lifted off of me. My head suddenly felt so quiet- so serene for a moment. It's changed entirely how I view everything. It's hard to explain, but I don't feel like I am the same person anymore.  It's changed me in a way that is so fundamental to my very being. I've always thought that those, the works that change you, are the very best of them all. But I don't think I quite fully understood it until now. 

I really wanted to thank the entire Dawn Chorus team from the bottom of my heart. Your work has meant so much to me. I won't ever forget it. 

/spoilers for lake's route & a bug report!













There's a missing option during Day 4 of Lake's route that means that you cannot progress further on the latest update. Included is the exception screen
