Just started this game a couple days ago, and I am already interested with all of the cast, and have a save file for each. Im just sad there isnt a Travis route 😭.
This is the first time I'm playing this on a computer (I previously played on my phone). I've downloaded a new build for the first time. Now I have two folders, one for each build. Can I delete the old folder? Or perhaps will that delete my saved data?
I don't know if there's a place to give grammatical feedback, so here it goes. I only noticed this because most of the writing is well designed, and the proofreaders do a great job.
I think it's supposed to be: "Too bad I still barely have any idea on how to control any of the characters."
An even easier way to do this would be:
"Too bad I barely know how to control any of the characters."
Since the sentence above already sufficiently establishes the precedent set in the original sentence. Sorry if I'm coming off as snobbish, as that is not my intention. I'm enjoying the game a lot so far! Keep up the good work!
This fascinates me, just did the secret route and it almost feels like there's a hidden story in a totally different Genre playing out in the background of the main VN. Kudos!
There's a basic walkthrough below but but you need to sit with Miko (let him stay quiet) at lunch, get a coat from Devon after losing your key, follow Klaus to the forest, embrace your inner monsterfucker (ie don't shove whoever accompanies you to the mysterious site and then pet the big spoopy monster.) After that basically do Bjorn's route (I personally did it while also keeping a distance from him but DO ask if you can room with him.) Then when you're sharing cake with him follow Klaus into the woods again.
I came here looking for some info about the Klaus route (having seen that it was an option in some of the updates) and wasn't expecting there to be any posts about it already!
Wow, the new Klaus content was pretty intense, it definitely surpassed my expectations! I hope we won't have to wait too long for the next update to that route.
someone said the previous didn't work, so i tried this and im sure it does.
Go see Mikko Sit with Mikko Give him some space (lost key section, get devon's help and his coat or rune's, either is crucial) Forest (Klaus) Call out to him Try finding him Go deeper Lobby (Klaus) Run Reach out (insert Bjorn activities)
choose Bjorn's route. Make sure to hang with him enough. It wasn't my intention
Can anyone please tell me how to get the second illustration ? I feel like I've tried every choice and yet I still haven't unlocked it. Thanks in advance !
Finally a Bjorn update!! 😄 I love this bear so much because his humbleness and his friendly attitude! I want to hug him and rest in this lovely guy's chest! ❤
It's admittedly been a while since I last played! I also got a new laptop since I last played and though the experience would be better than on my phone (it is, btw).
Because it's been a while, I wanted to play through routes I attempted when I began and I was just so delighted with Jørgen! I understand that some of the other characters might be more popular with fans, like Rune and Bjørn. But I do hope more happens with Jørgen.
I'm also excited to try different routes that I didn't before, especially since so much has been updated. ^_^ I hope that the progress of this novel is going smoothly for everyone involved. I'm really enjoying this story!
During Rune's route, Arvo, Rune, Mikko, Travis, Lake, and Torulf will play the game Never Have I Ever to pass the time. When it's your turn and you choose the 'Never have I ever stolen anything' option, Travis will be the only one to admit that he has stolen something before. He did it because, and I quote: "I had a friend who wanted to get back with their old friend, and I felt they needed a small nudge. So to help him I took something from that person for a while... but as soon as I noticed it wasn't working I returned it."
Obviously, the 'friend' Travis is referring to is Mikko, and who else is Mikko's old friend but Arvo? And the item Travis stole is without a doubt Arvo's room key. I never expected it lol
Oh dang, played that specific scene multiple times and never really connected those two events lmao.
Although I have a bit of a problem with this theory. I don't think there has been any time where Travis was alone with us in order for him to steal or return the key into our bag?
(I'm gonna be using Rune's route for easier explanation) Arvo finds the key while still being inside of Rune's room so if Travis were to return the key, it has to have happened the day prior. And if I recall correctly, every decision for "hang outs" has a decision where Travis isn't involved so that makes it hard for him to slip it back in the bag. There's also the matter of stealing the key in the first place which has the same issue and also, if I recall correctly, Arvo always has his bag on him so it's practically impossible for Travis to get it unnoticed. Also, there's the fact that Travis only just met Mikko so it would be very weird for Travis to risk his reputation by stealing Arvo's key. These are just my thoughts lmao
But then again, Travis' story matches up real well with Mikko and Arvo so that theory still has alot of credit.
(I didn't realize how big of a wall of text this is until I finished it lmao so sorry about that.)
Nah, no problem. Any kind of speculation is welcome. You actually made a very good point, even. I've also considered the idea that maybe Travis isn't vaguely referring to Mikko and Arvo and that it may have been something he did in past way before the events of Dawn Chorus; could have just been a coincidence the events sounded very similar to what happened to Arvo. It just adds more questions as to who would have taken Arvo's room key.
Update day, woooo ! I'm new here, so does anyone know what time updates are supposed to drop ? Thanks a lot in advance, I can't wait to see more of best bear boy Bjørn.
Edit: welp, nevermind then! So around 18 here in France, I'll keep that in mind.
I wanted to say that this is seriously one of THE best visual novels I have seen. Only a few others have either tied or been slightly better than this. The art is truly amazing and beautiful. It really takes your breath away when you see each new artwork.
The story is extremely well written and gives great explanations. Though I will say I am a slight bit confused as to what exactly Klaus is trying to do, but I understand it’s going to be explained later on.
The characters are all extremely lovable AND relatable. It’s very nice to have a gradual romance and relatable experiences instead of going right to the love.
The visual novel also is great as it explains other cultures in great detail. I’ve always enjoyed learning new things. I got to learn a lot of things about Finnish culture. The music is beautifully written and the various foods make me want to try them.
The novel also has beautiful artwork of nature. It really makes me smile and feel happy seeing beautiful scenes of nature. I know it sounds weird, but the novel has so much that really makes it amazing.
I can’t wait to see more updates. This really has great potential to become one of the best visual novels that I know. I will say that I really hope to see more Devon content soon. He is extremely sexy and handsome!
I know you will keep doing so well. Thank you for making the visual novel. I really am grateful for it. It’s also helped calm me down during some moments of anxiety. So thank you for making such a lovable visual novel.
As a russian that lives in finland, that also had a childhood friend named Mikko, I had some paranoia when I started this game.
Honestly, this game is amazing, and I love the cutesy artstyle and storytelling. Really no complaints so far, english is also impecable but it just seems that scandinavian people in general have amazing english.
Can i ask what is the name of the piano piece Mikko played at the common area? Is it a piece made for the game or can i find it on youtube?
Edit: So the name is Red Scarf and its specifically made for the game, i want to play the piece on my piano but im new to playing and i cant transcribe yet, although i managed to do the G Clef of the Beginning. (Sorry i dont know how to use musical terms correctly yet)
I wonder , where can I get my hands on the music Torulf plays on the ... vinyl player ? I really really like it and I'd love to listen to it outside of the game
My god, this game is amazing! I'm astonished by how this game actually was going to turn out, and was scared about if anything bad would appear. In the end, it was an amazing story and I cant wait to see if the next update will continue the story. Even my friend is helping me by transcribing Red Scarf (the piano piece Mikko plays) so I can play it. I love the story, the characters, and can't wait for more :)
This game is so amazing I can't put it into words. The story of each route is extremely promising and I love the wholesome interactions every character has with eachother. The art, the music and the story, like Rune said made the entire game soo immerseful and beautiful. I can't thankyou enough, I hope all of you are well and goodluck with everything! And oh! I love the details and the consistency y'all made with the bg art! Like how the commonspace is right under the balcony near Lake's room and such. This just satisfies my heart in so many ways.
For now I find it really good ! The sexual stuff is making me a lil bit uncomfortable but I can turn it off so it's okay ! I can't wait for the final version ! I'll completely follow the updates ! Keep going ! Sending love 💕
I played the 0.13 and I like the history and the characters and Iam so into Devon and Rune dont even know how to explain ❤ . Backgrounds, illustrations and soundtracks are AMAZING!! I love to listen the main menu music, sometimes I just open the game for it . Is there a forecast for full release or will the game be released gradually? Is there any way to get into Klaus/Jorgen routes? I've been trying since I donwloaded the game but no success yet.
(sorry there is something wrong or rude english is not my language)
Hi! I'm glad you're enjoying our visual novel :> The game is getting monthly updates, first available at our Patreon, then here after a month. The final release should happen sometime in 2023/2024.
As for now, Jorgen route is bundled together with Lake route.

It's safe to delete the old folder! The saves are located elsewhere.
Thank you so much! 😸

This. Exactly this
This fascinates me, just did the secret route and it almost feels like there's a hidden story in a totally different Genre playing out in the background of the main VN. Kudos!
How do though?
There's a basic walkthrough below but but you need to sit with Miko (let him stay quiet) at lunch, get a coat from Devon after losing your key, follow Klaus to the forest, embrace your inner monsterfucker (ie don't shove whoever accompanies you to the mysterious site and then pet the big spoopy monster.) After that basically do Bjorn's route (I personally did it while also keeping a distance from him but DO ask if you can room with him.) Then when you're sharing cake with him follow Klaus into the woods again.
Bjorn really had to interrupt a good dream, huh?
HA HA HA HA H A HA omg; so the first time I got that Lake was the one accompanying me and I said the exact same thing!
Lol. I still need to do his route, seems like a good lad.
I came here looking for some info about the Klaus route (having seen that it was an option in some of the updates) and wasn't expecting there to be any posts about it already!
I hope you like From Beyond ;)
From Beyond? I'm sorry but it doesn't sound familiar. I hope I didn't ruin a pun. Heh..
Embrace your inner--
...
Don't mind if I do~
Hey Dawn Chorus; Demon Wolf route when?
I just want to say that I am positively surprised when I found out that Miko has a family in Poland
(fun fact: I'm also from Poland)
Overall, I like this VN very much :)
I look forward to the next updates
more devon please he so adorable
More Klaus please, that was amazing and I loved the adrenaline rush from the more spooky parts.
Wow, the new Klaus content was pretty intense, it definitely surpassed my expectations! I hope we won't have to wait too long for the next update to that route.
OH THE HORROR
I KEEP FORGETTING TO CHANGE THAT XD
Is there any specific way to get onto Klaus' route? He's not a choice for a room buddy, unless I'm just blind.
secret route. if you want the guide i can tell u
Sure, I could use it
How-to-start-Klaus-route:
someone said the previous didn't work, so i tried this and im sure it does.
Go see Mikko
Sit with Mikko
Give him some space
(lost key section, get devon's help and his coat or rune's, either is crucial)
Forest (Klaus)
Call out to him
Try finding him
Go deeper
Lobby (Klaus)
Run
Reach out
(insert Bjorn activities)
choose Bjorn's route. Make sure to hang with him enough.
It wasn't my intention
when you see klaus, FOLLOW HIM.
Agree
and there you go, you are on Klaus route.
I tried this and i can never get on Klaus's route. Needs help
i just rewrote it try it again
It seems as though you have to visit Devon for the key help. Otherwise when you do Forest (Klaus) you go back in cuz its too cold
oh. well make sure to get a coat from either rune or devon lol
i need guide too if you don't mind it
i just posted a guide :D
I would love it too:) Tried all the choices I could, cannot find it.
i just posted a guide :D
YES RUNE LOVERS ITS OUR TIME
Spoiler!!
(how do i get the last illustration)?
(SPOILER kind of?)
If I remember correctly, on Rune's route you have to choose to go on a walk with Mikko and put an arm around his shoulder.
spoiler!! and question
does anyone have a guess who Lake has a crush on? (on devon route i think)
i can bet it's either torulf or rune
I dont think runes is his crush I bet it would be torulf
Can anyone please tell me how to get the second illustration ? I feel like I've tried every choice and yet I still haven't unlocked it. Thanks in advance !
spoiler
have lunch with lake, talk with Rune, find the key with him, agree
Finally a Bjorn update!! 😄 I love this bear so much because his humbleness and his friendly attitude! I want to hug him and rest in this lovely guy's chest! ❤
Wow. That's looks like some really weird RenPy glitch. Do you get it each time you try to get past that point?
In any case, clicking Ignore should proceed the game
So it happens in almost all the same ones, but when the lights go out in day 2, it happens there as wel
It's admittedly been a while since I last played! I also got a new laptop since I last played and though the experience would be better than on my phone (it is, btw).
Because it's been a while, I wanted to play through routes I attempted when I began and I was just so delighted with Jørgen! I understand that some of the other characters might be more popular with fans, like Rune and Bjørn. But I do hope more happens with Jørgen.

is there nsfw owo
yes
(SPOILERS!)
I CANT BELIEVE TRAVIS WAS THE ONE WHO STOLE OUR ROOM KEY
that makes sense (o゜▽゜)o☆
Wait excuse me?? When was this mentioned???
(SPOILERS!!)
During Rune's route, Arvo, Rune, Mikko, Travis, Lake, and Torulf will play the game Never Have I Ever to pass the time.

Spoilers
He was talking about bjørn
In Bjørn's route
He said that Travis entered his literary piece in his name without his knowledge.
(If you haven't 't played the most recent update, only read this when you have.)
Well damn, you were spot-on with Travis, props to you dude!
spoiler
It's possible for Travis to stole the key.
reference: after the first meal scene in cafeteria, when Arvo returned to his room
"I bump into a few students on my way out of the cafeteria, but thankfully the bun didn't take any damage"
I forgot who Travis was since the last time I've played this was maybe.. 0.4?
the tanuki
What came to mind first was Konousuke from morenatsu but yeah, I remember now thanks ^ w^
lol that is understandable
I love this VN so much, possibly the best I've ever played

At the permission of Keo Blau (composer), my friend ElkSponge has transcribed Red Scarf! (the piece Mikko plays at the piano in the common room)

Привет! Как там в Финляндии? В прошлый раз так к вам и не попал из-за ковида.
У нас все как обычно, у власти врунишки, погода мерзкая, но мы держимся:)
Can i ask what is the name of the piano piece Mikko played at the common area? Is it a piece made for the game or can i find it on youtube?
Edit: So the name is Red Scarf and its specifically made for the game, i want to play the piece on my piano but im new to playing and i cant transcribe yet, although i managed to do the G Clef of the Beginning. (Sorry i dont know how to use musical terms correctly yet)
my friend transcribed it recently. I don't know if i can send the link to it, so I tweeted out Dawn Chorus asking. No reply yet
hey how can I fix the traceback error?![]()
Just finished the update on Devon's route and... Welp, this is where I live now.
*respectfully throws travis for stopping the kiss*
this torture ;-;
also omgthatdevonartissoamazing
I wonder , where can I get my hands on the music Torulf plays on the ... vinyl player ? I really really like it and I'd love to listen to it outside of the game
https://buildingslikeradiators.bandcamp.com/track/tender-snouts-burning-campfire...
ngl tho, i liked Klaus' old sprite better
funni emoRune is so precious god I love him but then came the sad realization that the build ended there and that no one loves me :'3
this is weird but I finished the build kinda in the same mood, realizing I have no one to embarrass myself in bottle games lol
i just happened to find out my life is a failure after Rune's route
I was literally screaming while playing this
My god, this game is amazing! I'm astonished by how this game actually was going to turn out, and was scared about if anything bad would appear. In the end, it was an amazing story and I cant wait to see if the next update will continue the story. Even my friend is helping me by transcribing Red Scarf (the piano piece Mikko plays) so I can play it. I love the story, the characters, and can't wait for more :)
Has your friend transcribed it? I wanna play it too
they did transcribe it. not sure if the developers would like it not, but maybe I can get them to release it
Oh, okay
i tweeted Dawn Chorus out asking for permission today. awaiting response
Bruh I'm like only quarter gay, and this shit is great. I need more cozy vns
im late but omg we got more rune love
This game is so amazing I can't put it into words. The story of each route is extremely promising and I love the wholesome interactions every character has with eachother.
