Tengo una pregunta, yo hablo español el juego esta completamente en ingles? o tambien te da la opcion de otros idiomas? se que el audio es completamente en ingles pero lo demas? 🥲🥲 disculpe la molestia. 

It's really respectful that you kept out religious figures, this was a beautiful touch <33

I've played a couple of your games before this one, so I was elated to see psychological horror VN by you. And you delivered 😇 I enjoyed reading through all the endings.

It's fun to be put in the role of a priest in a confessional. For my first time playing, I was torn between trying to give honest relationship advice, or holding back and remaining professional. All the endings are spooky in different ways, implying that these issues aren't fully resolved...

I love the game but kinda sad there was no ending that made them be together

There are happy endings where they are together in this one https://chanimk.itch.io/forgive-my-desires-father

It seems that this game satisfies my strange hobby ^^

I really love it <33

How do I access the "Hint" Feature after completing an ending?
Edit: It's a button in the top corner when you re-play!

Played both this and the desires one on steam and got all achievements and omg what a ride that was. Loved it.

Happy to hear it! ^^

This was a nice little visual novel that definitely captures the psychological horror side of things as you slowly see Samael reach his breaking point through the confessionals. All the endings were interesting, and it leaves your audience wanting to find out what happened afterward. The sprites were perfect for conveying what you needed to get across in each scene and still keep it minimal. Great job!

very very interestingg. I liked the music in the background!

It's rare to see a game that explores the journey someone goes through as they begin their descent into madness, and I was just so captivated by the story of Samael and Father Andrew.

I'll leave my review for the spinoff once that video is released, but in Forgive My Sins, Father alone - I was surprised to see how you actually explored what could've possibly driven Samael into committing the acts he could've done.

The story truly is captivating, and eerily true to life. At times, I almost forgot that it was a fictional story unfolding before me, and I just had to see what more there was to the story.

thank you! I really like exploring the human mind- OMG THAT VIDEO TITLE LMAO

I finally got around to playing this game! I love psychological horror and using narrative as a medium on which to explore mental illnesses. I really appreciate that this game is short yet provides enough context to piece together Samael's mental state and the trauma behind it. The game is unsettling as it explores the darker sides of human emotions and misgivings.

I have yet to finish the other game from Samael's POV, but I appreciate that both games exist. While we might judge Samael for his actions as they're presented in this game, there's always another perspective and countless external and internal factors; past, present, and future; that can influence any person's actions. That is to say, it doesn't absolve Samael of his shortcomings. It just provides a foundation on which we can begin to understand where he's coming from.

So as always, I enjoy the diverse themes in all your games, and thank you for making all these amazing games. I will continue to support you within my means.

Thank you very much! I wanted to explore the mind of someone close to their breaking point instead of constanly making light-hearted stories XDXD Glad you enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed it! As his sins got darker, I became more worried. I managed to get the darkest ending first XD Weirdly, I never saw the hints pop up but I got all 4 endings anyway. Thank you for the game!

nope . Only Mac, android, and pc

aw man 

I really enjoyed it! The writing was really good, got me on the edge of my seat, i literally decided this man's fate lol. I liked the bad endings, they were pretty real. 'o'

thanks for checking it out!

Very good game but I can't get the last two endings even with the hints if you can try and make the hints easier Bug the name doesn't show in the name box

I'll fix the issue for the android build soon! To get each ending, you have to keep selecting the choices in the same order. For example, if you keep choosing the 3rd choice every time, you'll get the 3rd ending.

Oh chani I like your vn's so much, they are just way too short and I always want more and more. :(

Tell me if you will make a long visual novel because I would be so happy! (I hope nsfw too - WHAT I DIDN'T SAY IT TRUST ME)

(+1)

I could try! The reason I make em short is because I have too many small ideas XD. Definitely thinking about something longer in the way future. Same goes for NSFW.

This game is a very enjoyable visual novel. You play as the priest's pov.

( lol i recommend you to play samael pov now :p )

 I loved how you make some more endings. My favourite ending is the happy/true ending which samael married his wife. I got a bit stressed in this game because of the choices, i- just dont know what to choose. The choices and dialogues are great and well written. Definitely recommend this game :D 

Thank you! It really means a lot! X3

this was so fun to play! I liked how different the endings were, but how Samael still in some way wanted the priest to be in his life. Like even in what seemed like the good ending, it still felt almost like it wasn't and I love that! 10/10! I can't wait to play the spin-off later! I can't wait to compare and see how different things are (in a good way). Anyways, that was really fun and the art was amazing. (I low-key think the characters are hot lol.)

asdfhjkll that makes me so happy to hear! the majority of the people who played preferred the spin-off so I hope you'll like it too X3

This game was very enjoyable! I liked the choices and the endings. It was fun, great job :D 

Thank you!

This game was very fun, and entertaining! i would love to see more endings but im pretty sure it ends here. TIME TO MAKE FAN ART >:)))))


Thanks so much for this wonderful game!

Ooo then if you haven't seen it yet, there's a spin-off of this game with 4 more endings called Forgive my Desires, Father!!

I actullay just found that game by accenident while looking for more visual novels to play! :)) 

IM HYPED

Great game ! I've completed all four ending ! Going to download the spin-off next :)

Thanks! Hope it'll be a better experience!

Wowow the story is so interesting! Spooky and cool characters. And the art is great!!

Hey, thank you so much! It means a lot. 

This is so awesome!! Thank you for the game <

Thanks! Hope you have a wonderful day 💪❤️

Nice game, I really enjoy it. The story is easy to understand and well written.

I made the gameplay on Youtube, you can watch it if you want.

Awesome. Thanks for playing~

Is this sfw?

yes it is! no gore. the most shown is red splatter on a black screen.

So I figured 0ut that I could use the app version to play the game but I was really, really interested in playing. So I just downloaded it and plan to keep it on my desktop. It's really good. Slightly uncomfortable and terrifying in some endings but very good for such a short game. 

I managed to land them all, even the one where the fiancee and Samael stay together (arguably the one which is most terrifying).

Thank you very much! I have to admit that I was going for full uncomfortable vibes with this one XDXD

holy crap this was acrtually really good! I had fun playing it :)

Thank you very much ^^

Yea I’m playing this again it was that good can’t wait for the spin-off!!

I'm glad XD. Thank you very much!

Thank you for this short but entertaining game !

I really liked the originality of the concept.
The art is beautiful and the different scenarios are really well thought out.

Also your game reminds me how much our words have impact. Each word carries weight. We have all gone through difficult times in our lives and it's important to always have good intentions towards everyone because we don't know everyone's story.

The good ending is really satisfying to read !

(My only regret is that I would have liked to see what happens when Samael's obsession with the priest becomes unhealthy 🤭).

Can't wait to read the spin-off <3

Thank you very much! It means a lot! X3

Finally finished this! Looking forward to the sequel, the pure part of me is excited to see the Father's wholesome interactions with Samael while the naughty part of me wants to see Samael corrupt him more >:)

UwU dark and wholesome go hand in hand

AHHHH CHANI!! THIS IS SO GOOD!😍 I'm usually not that into BL games but this concept was so innovative and exciting, I just needed to try it. And, what should I say, I was 2 minutes in and I was already screeching! Although it's short, it serves everything you wish for in a game and Samael's confessions over the time gives just the right amount of tension. PLUS, the art???😍 I can't wait for the sequel😍 You did an amazing job, love! Be proud of yourself💕

Thank you very much X333

I actually really enjoyed this, for how short it is, I really love the concept (Confession to a priest), and it's never been done before, actually. Would love to see a longer version, or maybe spin-offs as well!

Thank you so much! Glad to hear that you enjoyed it! It means a lot < 3

whoa,i'm not a big fan of dark games,but hapilly i got the happy endings first.I liked the game a lot,but i was a bit scared of playing it,let's say i have no "horror" resistance.Really thrilling.

(+2)

Thanks for playing this one too! I really appreciate that you tried it out when you didn't like dark games! Thank you again!

(+1)

Hapilly this one wasn't scare at all.Maybe the first ending got my heartbeat a bit faster,but since there's not jumpscare ou explicit scenes i really like it Lol.

(+1)

Heehee. I'm glad XD

(+1)

You know when I was going for all the endings at one point I was like "I see, so this is the seduce the guy version". And it was. But somehow maybe it's the whole giving up all earthly desires the priest sure seemed surprised he had successfully been seducing someone lol

(+1)

Hahahaha XD Samael was already obsessed/stalking the priest since the beginning. No seducing needed.X3 I didn't get to go into detail since this was supposed to be short. But I do plan on explaining more in the longer spinoff XD

(+1)

Loved this! Me and a friend played and had fun squirming whenever Samael opened his mouth. Excited for the spinoff!

(+1)

Thank you very much! I'm so excited to share the spin-off soon! XDXD
