Our Wonderland

This game changed my life holy shit. My friend made me play it and I wasn't expecting much, but I ended up sobbing my eyes out multiple times on call while I played. 2 times I cried so hard I gagged.
The friend in question is friends with someone who apparently play-tested the game for ya, so maybe my dramatics have already been brought to your attention, lol.

also.. LUPIN III REFERENCE? MY SPECIAL INTEREST MENTIONED BY GENZOU? That alone almost brought be to tears. Carrot, never feel bad about putting silly references in your games, I am living proof that someone out there will love it.

Without spoiling anything: I really relate to Gidget the most, and even though She's not EXACTLY what I am, it's still the closest most accurate and deep representation of that general group I've ever seen. The feelings and thoughts she expresses are on point, as well as the symbolism and metaphors. The game basically called me out.

This was more than a game, it was an experience. Right now I've searched the internet and found maybe 7 pieces of fanart and 10 fanfictions, and I've created a discord server to find more Our Wonderland fans and so far have 2 members besides myself. This game deserves way more fans than it has right now, I'm gonna do my best to spread the word. I don't have twitter, but Carrot, if you're reading this, thank you for making this game. 

I often feel like my life is as good as over as a 19-year-old (almost 20 in a few months) who hasn't made any kind of popular groundbreaking genre-defining media yet, I feel like I should just give up art. I already gave up my lifelong dream of becoming an artist and instead I'm in college for normal job stuff and can't turn back now (tons of debt). I've always wanted to make a visual novel or a game or some kind of interactive media and tell a story, but I feel like everything's been done and I really am embarrassingly defeatist about my own mortality, life, and what I'll leave behind. 

This game was so utterly just.. AWESOME, that it makes me (...jealous. but also) slightly hopeful that maybe I'll be able to do something similar one day. obviously not as good as this, though. 

Man, if I could rate this higher than 5 stars, I would. Just play the game. Just do it(if you can deal with the content warnings ofc). Trust me, it is a deeply personal experience that tackles a whole RANGE of themes where there is atleast one that you are bound to relate to in some aspect, probably more! I really cannot do it justice by my word alone, no matter how hard I tried. All I can say is that I would wholeheartedly reccomend it to anyone in their late teens/early adulthood, as it is really a transformative experience; it's like a coming of age story, but executed perfectly for that age demographic instead. It is so extremely cinematic in both the sheer amount of deeply emotive cutscenes and the ost that backs the game so immensely(seriously, cheers to the people behind orchestrating original music and cheers to Carrot for picking pre-existing pieces that match the game's moments so well!). Truly, one of the most memorable experience I have had with a game. What else can I say...oh! It's extremely aspec friendly! Not to spoil anything but if you're aspec I think this game would resonate with you even deeper than with me. Lot's of other representation, too, and not just the LGBTQ+ type. 

Also, for Carrot specifically, since I haven't been allat descriptive in my rating, I know you've been seeing my live reactions on Tumblr so. I really couldn't rephrase anything much better than I already did there ahaha

i've been gone from itch for half a year but i've been thinking about this game. idk if yk the SCREAM i screamt when i saw that this lovely masterpiece of a game was updated. i will replay all of it again. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK CARROT, im so proud of you!!!!!!!!!!

If you are unsure about getting this game,  JUST GET IT!! This game is fantastic, and its free! Just try it, you'll be sucked in before you know it. Stop reading my damn comment and download it!

I HAVE FINISHED THE GAME FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Schoolwork's been beating my butt for a long time and I ended up playing the finale way later than I would've liked... BUT HEY I'VE DONE IT NOW

I also decided to make a separate comment for me commenting on the finale because. Hey. It's special. I've like. Finished FINISHED the game !

Starting with the general stuff about the finale !

First I wanted too see if I had enough affection with everyone to do all their endings on the same save but. Well. I had affection too low with Gidget. BUT IT'S FINE I DID THE OTHER TWO FIRST.

Also little fun fact I only realized during the final that GIDGET HAS CECIL'S POCKET WATCH WITH THEM IN WONDERLAND ??? CRYING

During the fight with the monster, you know at the beginning I was like "Wait. The axe. The person who is supposed to be in the cabin in the first place. WAIT IS THAT BUCKS-" and then Iggy confirmed it and I felt like I have a genius haha /hj. Also reading Iggy saying that they had "no choice" but to fight was. Somehow terrifying like what do you mean we can't pacifist route this. AND THE OUR FANTASTIC WONDERLAND REFERENCE ??? I'M SO GLAD I PLAYED THE SIDE GAMES BECAUSE FINDING ALL THE LITTLE REFERENCES IS SO FUNNY. The Bucks flashbacks made me want to cry. Like children and teenagers can be so cruel without realizing it ToT And I couldn't help but think "wow Iggy you got shapeshifting abilities now" when he put on Hunar's necklace. Even though I knew I shouldn't take it too literally- And wow how Bucks turning into a monster is described as "judgement for our sins" by Iggy might have. Made me rethink my whole life and all the actions I have ever taken like oh wow

Whey they got to the tree... Like I knew Saydie was most probably dead (more or less). But oh. Seeing her in the sate she was in. That's harsh. AND THE TREE SAY THAT "From tragedy blooms joy. The joy of innocence" Had to sit in front of my laptop doing nothing for a minute there because. Damn. AND ANOTHER THING WHEN SHE SAYS " You abandoned me the day you abandoned your innocence" MA'AM THAT'S CALLED GROWING UP AND IT'S NORMAL. Also the way She described Iggy OH MY GOD THAT HURTS ? (especially as I relate to him. Like ma'am you're insulting me personally here I absorbed this man in my soul). In the green fields I thought it was so cool when Iggy made his own choice. AND I HAVE TO SAY WHEN I ACTUALLY SAW THAT CHOICE I WAS CONFUSED. LIKE WASN'T THE WHOLE POINT OF ALL OF THIS TO BREAK THE CYCLE. WHY DO I HAVE THE CHOICE

I also was slightly confused WHEN WE WENT BACK TO CHILDHOOD. Because I mean sure it kinda makes sense BUT IT STILL SURPRISED ME. WHAT A PLOTTWIST. (I also was really happy that Gidget was still referred to as they/them hehe

Also about some common things about the epilogues I was really happy to see Cecil again. My brain was like "CECIL. CECIIIIIIIIL." also IS THAT JERRY AS ORLAM'S EMPLOYEE. JERRY.

Oh one more thing. The music for the cutscenes was. Really really great. Chef's kiss even. If I may say.

Okay now first ending I did GENZOU ENDING !!!

Firstly the talk with him was very emotional. Aeugh. Like him saying he shouldn't take care of himself because of the wrong he has done or Iggy crying and saying he doesn't need to be his selfless knight and that "you (Genzou) were never fine, and I (Iggy) never knew" AHHHHHHHH I ALMOST CRIED. And then we finally got DA KISSSSSSSS and them hugging to sleep next to the stove and the little Iggy monologue AEUGH MY HEEEEEART

And their life afterwards in the epilogue uheuheuhe I love them so much

Secondly I did the Orlam ending !

I sadly don't have much to say, as much as I like Orlam's character haha... The only thing I could think was "Orlam you're such a brat but I love you still"

I also find it very fitting how their relationship isn't really defined. Like they're just them. Fits Orlam and the pairing he forms with Iggy very much.

And then I did the Gidget ending !

Man I Had to redo everything to get enough affection. I went through all the PAIN. AGAIN. GIDGET I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY.

Of course in the Gidget talk we had the whole apologizing session... LIKE GIDGET I KNOW IT WAS BAD YEAH BUT YOU WERE IN A BAD PLACE AND THIS PLACE FUCKS YOUR HEAD UP IT'S OKAY. UP TO A CERTAIN POINT. AND THEN THEY GO ON WITH SAYING"how can I expect anyone to accept me for who I am" THIS FELT LIKE A PUNCH IN THE GUT GIDGET NOOOOOO. AND AFTERWARDS THEY'RE CRYING AND IGGY SAYS "only you can decide who you are" THE TEARS WERE IN MY EYES. SECOND PUNCH IN THE GUT FOR REAL. And when they talk about about feeling different druring their childhood/teenagehood and not knowing what was "wrong" because no one talked about it AEURGH I AM PROBABLY PART OF THIS "younger generation" THEY'RE REFERRING TO BUT GIDGET BUT I STILL FEEL YOU BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE WHOLE INTERNET AT 10 YEARS OLD

Also I'm sorry to say that but when Iggy said "There's still time." I HAVE BEEN BRAINROTTED BY "I saw the TV glow" AND COULDN'T HELP BUT THINK ABOUT IT OMG

The epilogue was cool and Gidget kissing everyone hahaha. I also don't completely get what kind of relationship Iggy has with Gidget. Like are we dating with Gidget being polyamorous orrrrr. Do we have an ambiguous relationship like with Orlam orrrr. Is it something else. I'm a bit confused and I don't know if it's normal and you intended it that way kadhfkdjab

AND FINALLY. Neutral ending ! Last one :,)

I LOVE that the idea of this ending it not "I don't want to be with anyone" but rather "I wanna focus on myself"

AND IGGY'S LIFE NOT CHANGING MUCH EXCEPT HE'S MORE CONFIDENT AND CAN FIGURE HIMSELF OUT BETTER AEUGH I'M SO HAPPY FOR HIM. He also keeps up with his friends more uheuheuhe :,)

Also he loves hurt/comfort me too man me too we in this together

Very funny how Cecil's murderous glares to Iggy haven't changed haha

AND THEN THE OUR CINDERELLA REFERENCE AT THE END I LOVE THAT I PLAYED ALL THE SIDE GAMES YIPPEEEE

So. We're getting towards the end of this comment. My last comment on Our Wonderland... Uheuheuhe...

First of all I wanna say again that this is truly one of the best horror visual novels I've ever played in my life. It left a great impact on my soul and heart and it was so great even though it did very much make me cry haha. I will definitely NEVER forget it.

I really loved all the endings in general. As I am very much attached to Genzou and Iggy of course I'll say the best ending is the Genzou one... But I have to say that the neutral ending could be in this place too. Not because I don't like Orlam and Gidget, or because I think Iggy is better off without a partner but just... As I mentioned before, I feel like the idea of this ending is "I wanna focus on myself". And I find this very great hehe.

Anyway ! That's the last of my ramblings. Thank you again for making this absolutely amazing game. I'll be on the lookout if you ever develop anything else and will be sure to give it a try ! Take care Carrot :)

Okay its been seven days and twenty hours later lets hop into it.

FIRSTLY: anyone scrolling the comments looking for a reason to play this game(me, seven days and twenty hours ago) just get it. Your device can't play it? Buy one that can. 

OKAY FR THO.

I love horror games, and I like games with a good blend of platonic and romantic relationships. Boom, perfect game. Now, really quickly, let me list the positives. Wait, no...  sorry, thats not possible. There's just a few (36) too many for this to be quick.

To summarize the BIG positives-

-The music. OH. MY. GOD. AMAZING. Unironically one of the best scores I've ever listened to, with great attention to detail. Music changes how you perceive games, and I felt the music doing that, and more. I literally am just going to. 

perfect

adjective

/ˈpəːfɪkt/

1. 1.  having all the required or desirable elements, qualities, or characteristics; as good as it is possible to be. "life certainly isn't perfect at the moment" Similar: ideal

Flawless

Ultimate

Sublime

In case you cannot tell, it was good. Especially during act 5, it really came together. And while sometimes the slower, more motonteimous sections have more, well, slow and motonteimous music. But the second something high-stakes occurred, the INCREDIBLY unnerving music BLASTED OUT and it was honest to god, TERRIFYING.

-The characters. Spectacular. I especially love Iggy, he's genuinely such a great character, and I am SO happy that he's the protagonist. I especially liked that scene (MAJOR SPOILER) where he chose the option for you in the end of act 5. Actually really cool. And speaking of act 5, thats where we really saw some interesting ideas shine through- we control Iggy, kind of. And the tree kept saying how perfect he was as a vessel, because he has no character himself, he lacks personality and morals. I adore characters that have this... lack of self, and they learn to overcome it. 

Which leads into my love of the our cinderella side game- I thought it was so lovely how it didn't feel like WE were the ones being romanced at all- (I don't enjoy  romances involving 'me', or just a self insert.) it instead felt like we were helping Iggy, and pushing him into the right direction!

OKAY BACK TO THE CHARACTERS-

Final point on Iggy- (I could yap more, but I have plenty to say about everything else this game has to offer... [menacingly])  I LOVE ACE REP SM- I consider myself demi, and have felt this repulsion towards sexual activity. It's not like I hate it, I just need to trust the person. Which happens to take a lot of time. (Years.)  That part of him I've found quite relatable?? Iggy is REALLY well written, and if you take the time to play the side games as well, you'll get and even BETTER written character (very hard, great achievement completed)

GENZOU.

I always choose to romance Genzou. Originally, I was going to go neutral- but. Ah. He's so fun. But before I confess why he's probably my (very close) second favorite character, I have to admit why I love ALL of these characters.

I normally choose what characters I like the most based on morality. Okay, I know, it's  a bad way to pick out what characters you like based on just ethics. But like, my many hours worth of philosophy and ethics classes have made me a bit too weak to stan SERIAL KILLERS. And when I first started playing, I was like "Oh! Genzou is probably the best person here!" which turned into- "Oh, he's actually being kind of rude-" to "What the f--k did he say to Orlam-" to "DUDE WHAT THATS SO MESSED UP?!?" 

And while I still think Genzou is the most ethical (he is the only one who didn't try to kill his friends!) it was odd. I knew no one in the game was good. Everyone there had some murderous intent or had done some terrible thing. (except the GOAT Hunar) And I didn't ever realize how much I needed that. I was SHOCKED at how quickly I found myself thinking more indepth about every character I saw.  I found it harder and harder to hate characters solely on their actions and intent. Normally (spoiler) I would have HATED Gidget for what they did in act 5/act 4, and would NOT have enjoyed their presence AT ALL in the following scenes. But NOPE. I kind of understood it? Eh, this is a tangent. I will be yapping about Gidget, because they 100% have my favorite story. 

GENZOUUU.

Honestly, I just liked him. Related to him ALOT.

You know, I got that legally blind s--t (I pray to whoever made contacts, they're my god.) 

My collection of bikes >:) I will admit, I've crashed into the road more times than I can actually collect.

I DUNNO I HAVE THE ENTP ENERGY (I like to tell people they're wrong and then not give them a reason at all for why)

But I'm not short tho :) !!!

Okay but fr. His desperate pinning on Iggy was actually so horribly sad. And, no matter what Iggy said or did, he still loved him. He still trusted him. Especially how, if you did romance him, he was always accepting, always understanding. He was probably the most healthy relationship, at least in my opinion? (carrot was that your favorite couple?? I don't know there was just two side games for them...both are super cute btw <3)

AND HIS WISH ACTUALLY I WAS BAWLING.

cool guy

Gidget :)

Out of every character, Gidget is probably the most relatable to me? But the outcomes are quite different lmao

I adored their story, it was well written, understandable, and I loved the closure it had at the end. Even though I was throughly disgusted by what they did to Iggy through every act, via memories and flashbacks, it was quick to piece together the full picture- that of someone who changes for others, hurting themselves in the progress, ignoring their interests, their happiness, their selfhood. 

I also did a similar thing, becoming vastly more feminine from the end of middle school to the beginning of high school, just so 'society' would consider me conventually attractive. 

They really had, by far, the most visible growth, and the two timelines are, perhaps, the most different. And good for them >:) you ATE my liege!1!

Similarly, I was actually so happy seeing Cecil be... not impaled... in the epilogues, I thought he was actually pretty interesting!!!

orlam.

OKAY, I KNOW. A large portion of the comments are down-bad for Orlam- sure, he's a very interesting character, and I definitely didn't hate him. He was fun to see on screen! But, especially in the final timeline, he would be the worst for Iggy. And, while I don't think they'd be good together, in act 4, I thought Gidget and Iggy were cute, (NOTTHEENDNOTTHEEND) and genuinely had chemistry. I could see there being a slight draw to them. But Orlam... 

Honestly, the relationship seemed uncomfortable to me. Maybe thats because Orlam makes me uncomfortable... but I just feel like he's a bit too sexual for Iggy? I can see Gidget, while being disheartened, still accepting Iggy. (And Genzou, being the KING he is ALWAYS accepts Iggy !!) I feel like Orlam would (Oh this is going to sound bad.) pressure Iggy into a sexual relationship?? I don't really know, I haven't gotten his ending, it could be the sweetest relationship ever! 

Out of everyone, I feel the most bad for him. He's clearly dealing with immense mental health issues, and coping very poorly. How he acted without his heart was just... really heartbreaking. And when Genzou hugged him, I was actually sobbing. 

I don't really have as much to say on Bucks? Her and Hunar were a good couple, and I am quite glad they handled their relationship very well the second time around. 

-Art!

The art is really, really cute! Which was interesting, because I was like- wow, they look adorable! This is not scary at all!

(those rabbits those rabbits.)

But it took maybe 5 minutes for me to realize the absolute incredible versatility this style had. Not only were the character designs incredible, portraying everyone quite well, but the designs of the backgrounds and creatures were very impressive. 

And OMG? There were so many CGs that it felt like half the time it wasn't a visual novel, it was a f--king movie! And that is 100% a compliment- the creator obviously invested a lot of time into the art, and it SHOWS! This kind of skill to be able to make so much quality art and writing is incredible. 

Oh, I haven't even talked about the-

-Writing!

Really good. VERY good. I adored wonderland, its twistedness and nostalgia, dripping with hostility and facades of kindness. The setting itself is something we all know, and carrot could have easily just thrown us into a wonderland we know about already, just added some twists- but NO. They went all out, and created a very different, and very terrifying wonderland. Very few things feel reused, it feels fresh and lively. 

My favorite part of the writing was everything surroding the tree, Saydie, and wishes. The concept of wishes fueling the wonderland, that what you want will be what you find- ITS SO GOOD. And the tree, desperately craving wishes, until She reached a breaking point? AMAZING. I actually felt almost bad for the tree. ...Okay, I wish I could burn the tree down-

My favorite part-

The end. 100%. Seeing all the kids saying their wishes, and then having it reset? It was unique, I truly did not think that was coming, but it made so much sense! Seeing what happened to everyone afterward was really satisfying, and as soon as I was done I instantly played every other game Carrots ever made <3

Do I have any complaints?

Mm. Eh. Not really? I suppose I found act 3 a bit boring, and sometimes the constant gore got excruciating (I had the censored mode on, I dislike gore a tad) but served its purpose quite well! When Iggy's fingers were chopped off, I physically flinched, and when Genzou and Iggy got slaughtered in act 2 I wanted to cry.

Probably the most enjoyable game I've played on Itch, and definitely the most well made- I have already drawn Iggy multiple times and have tried to force every living being I know to play the game so I can talk with people about it. GIVE THIS GAME THE FANDOM IT DESERVES!!!!!!!!!

okay!! lots of love, 

-emeys

(this is possibly the longest comment ive ever given: to summarize, play the game, love Iggy, stan genzou, give orlam a hug, tell Gidget they matter, drop the soundtrack please)

Hey carrot, I've been silently looking and lurking on this page regarding this game for awhile now (I think arc 4 or 3 is when I discovered this gem?). My first exposure to your stuff was actually the dancing side game, UGH I BLOODY LOVE IT, THE FEELS, THE IMPLICATIONS, THE LORE BETWEENT THE CHARACTERS THAT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT, THE SWAYING TO MIMIC DANCING, THE SONG AAAA-- (man I wanna fangirl a lot more about it but right now isn't the time)!! After that, I played the short mobile game, as a queer lass it was really lovely to experience that game as I rarely see ace rep in video games (man I sure hope those two don't get traumatised in a separate game).

Now regrettably I haven't been able to play the main game yet as I have been going through my own character arc of sorts (and I am the sort of person to wait until a game is fully complete to play it as I wished to experience the whole plot with no pauses,,, apologies). All that is to say, my most exposure to the main game has been through your dev logs. As a current Games Design student, reading your logs has been a wonderful experience (which is probably really weird but oh well). It was lovely to see your progress with the game while I was also getting through developing my own stuff for assignments. I don't have as much experience as you when it comes to churning out banger games but I have dealt with similar feelings when finishing a game (highly relate to the depression and the feeling of emptiness that follows) and, in the weirdest way possible, reading your own experiences really helped me feel less alone in the process. Basically the point of all of this is to say, thank you for developing such amazing games for yourself and for us strangers on the internet. Heck you have even inspired me to do game development outside of my assignments for fun! Please stay safe and take as much time as you need to rest, your health and real life commitments are more important than game development. 

Apologies for writing so much, this is my first time actually commenting on itch.io lol. I felt very compelled to just word vomit this out to you as a sign of thank you for what you have inadvertently done for me by just being you and working on this huge project.

TLDR - It's been lovely lurking around here and seeing your progression! Thank you for the much needed inspiration and please take care of yourself!! Hopefully I'll be able to play this game soon after my work is complete~.

I just finished this and then i tore off all my skin and exploded and died thank you carrot

Hello!

I would like to start off by saying that today I have officially finished OW. I completed all of the LI endings last night, only to find myself drowning in tears as I tried to fall asleep. I finished the neutral ending this morning and started sobbing all over again. Yeah... thanks :{ But I was honestly very pleased with this game.

 Let me to clarify that I am not accustomed to leaving comments on games; this is actually my first one. However, I felt compelled to share my thoughts, so please excuse any 'unprofessionalism' on my part. 

When I discovered this game, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was simply exploring the many games (specifically VNs) that itch.io had to offer and happened to stumble upon OW, which I then played and, of course, am now currently leaving a comment on. :)

I'm someone who's easily moved, but evoking tears, especially from playing a game, is a rare feat for me. It's like two sides of the same coin.(Heh, get the reference?) Carrot incorporated both sides into their game by giving their characters diverse struggles to overcome. Comparing myself to the characters in the game, I'm considerably very young. Because of this, I don't have much personal experience with some of the struggles the characters have to endure—such as sexual assault, transitioning, and parental abuse. The way Carrot properly portrays these challenges is what I find incredibly inspiring. To watch these characters, of whom I've gotten so fond of, find themselves in devastating situations I could never find myself in is what really leaves me in tears. With this, me and many others can realize how fortunate some of us are and be grateful for what we have. I enjoy the chance to see from a new perspective of what others may have went through that I haven't. Thank you for incorporating this into your game; it means a lot. Great, now I'm sad.😖💔

Now to the other side, what really resonates deep within me. I'd like to think I don't think of myself all that much. Although, that also means that I have to deal with constantly questioning myself, not knowing anything about me. This extends to my sexuality. It feels like it has a mind of its own, changing day to day. One day, I may be in love with everyone I make eye contact with, the next I'm curling up in a ball wondering if I'm actually just some unusual aroace specimen. Perhaps there's an explanation for this, but for now I don't know. Mostly, the questioning affects my regular life. Currently, I have no idea what career path I want to pursue when I'm forced to grow up and make a living. MY PREFERENCE IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING. IT'S SCARY.  First, I think I want to be a doctor, then a lawyer, then a programmer, then an actor, then an entrepreneur, and suddenly, an artist??????? (Sounds silly, I know)😭But when I realize that other people feel this way too, it feels nice that I don't have to be completely alone in this ongoing battle. Heck, seems like enough of an issue that Carrot made a whole game about it! Thank you for creating a game that helped me realize I have a lot more to figure out about myself, yet somehow managed to make me feel less alone in the process.

Well, I've had about enough talking about myself and the game, I want to talk about Carrot! Why? Why not! The effort that Carrot put into this game is so evident, Genzou could see it! (Okay, bad joke, sorry😅) My sibling is a programmer whom I've always looked up to, but my interest in programming is always on-and-off. As well as that, I am currently trying to delve into writing unique stories of my own. The fact that Carrot has checked the writing, programming, and drawing boxes is just SO impressive. The creator is also incredibly sweet, regarding how they treat fans and how much the characters they create mean to them. Additionally, I don't know if anyone else saw this, (probably not because I have a low IQ) but the creators vocabulary is incredibly advanced! There are many words that I was unfamiliar with, as embarrassing as it is to mention.😳I would be envious, or even annoyed, at the creator for this...BUT I JUST CANT BECAUSE THE CREATOR IS TOO NICE AND ADORABLY AWKWARD FOR THEIR OWN GOOD!!!!!!!!

This comment has been a trainwreck of emotions, and I'm honestly super nervous to even post this. But I spent quite a while trying to properly convey my feelings onto this post, so I hope it resonates.😊Your characters currently reside rent free in my head and I'm not complaining--I'm taking good care of them. You can have them back for a day every 5 years. 

Keep doing your thing, Carrot. Me, along with plenty others, will be eagerly awaiting your next project. I can confidently say that the next game you produce will be something truly amazing. 💗

Bye!

i played this game like 2 months ago and it changed my life, like seriously sdjhsn

iggy, oh my god i have a few things to say. thanks to this AMAZING game i was able to fully confirm myself as asexual, i was just so mesmerized by how much i understood what he was going through. ive always seen the term asexual but i never paired it up to myself since i felt as if i didn't qualify but seeing iggy go through and talk about his situation, which were so similar to my own. it really helped my come out and fully accept myself as being asexual, just hearing him talk and react to things made me feel valid. i cried way too much while playing this, but it was all well needed crying so thank you for thank lol. i think i really changed when i finished the game, almost like a weight of uncertainty was lifted from my shoulders (if that makes sense sdgj) but i felt so valid and seen. i swear all 117 hours of me losing sleep to be playing and crying for this game were worth it in the end! never have i ever felt so similar to a character than i have with iggy, i thank you so much for making this game!

i also related to gidget in a way! though ive kinda always know i wasn't just my assigned gender, it was nice to see how they went through things that a lot of trans people, me included, went through. this whole game really made me feel a lot of things, hsdj. it was like a punch to the stomach that i never knew i needed!

so i just wanted to say thank you for making this amazing game that i love sm carrot! i hope i dont sound too weird by saying this but, in a way your game really saved me! i hope you're feeling better and i wish good things upon you <3

Hello, I would like to clarify a few things like I have known the game for quite some time but I did not have the opportunity to leave a comment or anything and well, I have played all the games in the OurWonderland Universe and I honestly LOVE EVERY GAME, I love them, the story , the characters, the design, your drawing style, I love everything and I would also like you to know that your game has reached areas like Latam but anyway xd, the point is that I love the game and I would love it if it could become more popular and host a larger famdon but I am happy with the content continuing to come out, Thank you very much for this piece of real art, I love it ❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic, life-changing experience that was clearly given lots of love and effort when created. :) Btw, may I ask what stories, if there are any, was this VN inspired by? There’s definitely Alice in Wonderland, but the story and setting also reminds me of It by Stephen King as it also tells the tale of a similar group of friends who come from troubled backgrounds and ultimately conveys the central theme of the loss of childhood innocence. (Although there’s definitely stronger romantic tones to this one)

Once again, amazing work! I already know I’m gonna be left sleepless trying to find another story that can fill up the void that Our Wonderland filled. :3

holy shit- i just finished ch.5 and this was just so f amazing! i was even sobbing at the end(actually i was crying from the moment orlam had held them hostages till the end but whatevs) omg i rlly need to check your other works too....also the way the characters were written was incredible.Great job<3

Only a few games have ever impacted my life, and this was one of them. The amount of joy I felt when I finished the story, and then seeing like a montage of what their lives had shaped them to be? I can't tell you how full my heart was when I read that.
The way that you wrote these characters was so indulging, and I've already finished this game like a week ago but I still couldn't get them out of my head! You got me caring for each one of them and their loveable quirks and flaws, and their journey of self-discovery. And it's just so amazing and bizarre to me, of how much I relate to some of these characters (Iggy and Gidget, more specifically). To see that the feelings and thoughts I've kept to myself, that I sometimes feel silly or ashamed to even think about, were being reflected back to me. And all of it just feels so... validating, I guess? Idk lol I'm sorry if this is coming off across as weird already.

But anyway... I just wanna say that you have a talent for these and you're doing an amazing job, Carrot! I hope you know you have people who support you, and I wish you the very best! Stay safe and I hope you feel better soon!
