Follow-up to a post I made a few days ago further down this page:
I played this a week ago and lost my mind. It turns out I made a bad decision, of the 3 times you get to make one, and it gave me an uncertain and astronomically sad ending. I was torn apart by the thought "it's not fair" because I thought that was it. It was just over.
But I played it again and made different decisions. Good ones. I cried again when I got to see....

...the future. I missed it. I didn't know if we got a life with Amicus. I didn't know that we got to see him. For me, this past week has just been filled with a hole in my heart at the idea that we never got closure and tonight, I got it. Finding out that we DO, in fact, complete the mission and spend the rest of our lives with Amicus... I'm so glad I played again. I'm so sad I missed it the first time.

Over the past week, I've dreamed about Amicus every single night, for real. I've never had a piece of media grip me by the throat like this. I don't know how to describe it. It's just a story. It's a fictional, alien wolf that kidnaps the reader who then goes through all kinds of traumatic events with tough characters and an exaggerated atmosphere.
But it just feels so honest.
I don't know if Howly ever comes through these posts but if they do, and they're reading this, then thank you for sharing your story.
It's somehow changed how I think about a lot of things and while I'm still unpacking why, navigating through what this story means to me, just know that your passion has invoked emotions in so many people. I'm sure you know it, but many folks are looking forward to more!
I know that I'm only going to be able to read through the story so many more times before I move on, but I don't want to move on. I feel like a part of me will hurt without Amicus. SOOOOOO I ordered a small poster of him and I'm gonna have it framed for the wall next to my desk LMAO gotta keep him close. I won't miss him if he's never gone.
I think that the art in this game is genuinely incredible and does a flawless job painting the world and locations that the player will see as they play the game. The music is subtle but greatly contributes to the atmosphere and brings some life to a VN which can easy become boring if too silent. I also think that the story told within can be deeply impactful to the right person and bring them joy, comfort, or a deep sense of longing.
I, however, do not like this game. Art and music are not things I am well educated on so I don't wish to criticize them and I do feel that they work incredibly well for this story, but it is the story that I greatly dislike.
Like many visual novels the goal is that you take the role of the protagonist and in this one that holds true as it places you in the role of a student visiting Rome for a time before you are kidnapped by a bara space wolf and shenanigans ensue.
I do not like any of these characters, least of all the main one. Amicus is agonizing to deal with as he slowly pushes past barriers set by the main character until he is doing the very thing he promised he wouldn't. The rest all have their own flaws and issues that you'd best play the game to fully understand.
The main character, default name Marco, is an idiot. For being a history student I've never seen anyone so doomed to make idiotic mistakes. His real flaw, though, is being too much of a person. This is present too in the fact that you can really only make about three choices in the game. Marco being his own person means that I cannot play the protagonist unless I choose to play Marco. I am not a history student, I do not enjoy being kidnapped and forced against my will to act in degrading ways, I least of all would be as weak willed as Marco to play along and rather fight tooth and nail for everything.
In that way the game loses me. I am not like Marco and so I cannot be him, least of all am I the kind of person to actually think like him and so my disconnect in the game grew.
This culminated at the end where god descends from the heavens and tells Marco that he and Amicus are a fated pair and that together they can stop the evil darkness from conquering their galaxy. You can, of course, refuse, but the game pouts and tells you that you die and how tragic if only you had done as you are told, in truth Marco is not the kind of person to resist so it makes sense. If you say yes and let the gods make the choices for you, you get the happily ever after that I'm sure many people wish they could have in their own lives.
I'm not that kind of person as I've stated so I am most dissatisfied with these events and further still I strongly dislike Amicus. For breaking every promise, for pushing every boundary, for being a pitiful fool who thinks that one can rule a kingdom on strength alone. In a way the story is exceptional as it writes a person I can dislike into existence.
You might wonder, if you've read this far, why I'd rate a game I dislike so strongly, so highly. Simple, because I think that while I dislike the characters, I dislike the story, I dislike how it ends, it made me dislike it. It did so fairly and on it's own merit, it pulled no punches and did not try to appeal to me. In that way I know this game is not for me, it is for others.
I have colored the game as I saw it when I played it, I imagine it is likely that when you play it it will be much different, but play it. I don't think it was a waste of my time, The devs had something to say and they said it. I don't like it, but that doesn't mean it will be that way for everyone. I might play more Echo Project games in the future, hopefully I like them more, but regardless I imagine they will be as well made as this one.
If I was younger and read this. I would have been hooked into being a furry way faster. I'm 36 now and have a different perspective in life now reading it.
Overall i absolutely loved it. Amicus does play a predictable role for most of it and messes up surprisingly. Other characters all have motives which most are revealed and others still seem hidden.
In the end section I completely disagree with the relationship built and the lack of communication needed to really bond these characters. Having a relationship of being alone and only to kiss your loved one in the morning to have them returned exhausted for MONTHS, to then LEAVE FOR 8 YEARS. They needed to have much bigger conversations. I would have loved to have seen adult conversations what we face as we grow. HOW can we make this relationship work, How can we show affection, how do we date the one we love. Amicus is rightfully so taken to his duties. Leaving Marco alone for months with only 1 person to really converse with? I have been in a relationship for 10 years. These things need to be addressed or they build up.
Story up to the climax 10/10, story afterwards is a bit toxic for what is asked and hard to swallow. They use magic to foreshadowing the future and maybe it's enough? I am hoping for more in the future, maybe a comic, short vignettes, slice of life.
It has been a while since a story has left me with a silent warming sadness, a dull mixture of joy, love, bitter sadness and yearning. Happy pride month!
I have a lot of feelings but no furry friends to share them with. I'm not even a furry myself, believe it or not. Despite that, as a hopeless romantic, it's so easy to find comfort in the goofy and compassionate anthropomorphic wolf that Amicus is.
Couple slight spoilers ahead.
I've been crying on and off for a couple hours now. Some of it is anger and some of it is sadness. I'm upset that this was all I get (for now?). It wasn't enough. It doesn't feel fair that the whole story ended on a goodbye. I was obsessively pulled in over the past 48 hours and binged this to the end, consistently aware of "I'm getting closer to the end" and finding Amicus's bad end pleas of "No no no, please don't go" becoming my own @ the story itself.
It was so good and corny in the best ways. I have such a hard time in real life with advancing affection, often freezing completely in moments where others would make a move. I have ZERO issues in the social and flirty department (I'd even go as far as saying that I'm ridiculously charismatic) but stories like this allow me to vicariously make moves on characters easy to fall for and, I dunno, it fills a part of me I often forget and neglect. I'm not sure if it's a part of my asexuality or what but visual novels like this have become a safe space for me.
So I guess I just needed to put some of what I'm feeling somewhere. This story made such an impact on me in such a grossly short amount of time. Part of me feels silly, knowing it's just a fictional story about an alien wolf from a fake planet but also... I don't know.
I yearn for love and romance and fantastical places and things.
I don't know how long it will take for this sadness to leave me, but I know that Adastra and Amicus will be around for the rest of my life.
Okay, I just realised something INSANE… just hear me out for a second.
When I was about 12 years old I had an Alexa in my room. Stay with me here, there was thing called Sleep Sounds where you could ask her to play ambient noises like “River Sounds”, “Rainforest”, “Oscillating Fan”, etc. I had undiagnosed ADHD at the time so I often struggled to wind down at night, ergo I would use this feature quite frequently. A particular favourite of mine was “Beautiful Dream” which was a solo, mainly homophonic piano piece drenched in reverb. For about a month I would fall asleep to it pretty much every day.
Fast forward to when I first played this game last year, I remember arriving at Adastra after being kidnapped at the beginning of the game, entering the atrium with the marble statues for the first time, and hearing the song entitled “Reveal” from the OST. Immediately I was like “Why the f*ck does this sound so familiar?”, so I saved the song to my computer because I found it soothing and kinda nostalgic beyond just the harmony of the tune itself.
Fast forward to this year and I bring my Alexa back up into my room because A-Level exams are kicking my gay little ass and I needed to wind down. Asking her to open up Sleep Sounds again jogged my memory, and I realised that this was where I’d heard the song before. It seemed to have been removed from Alexa since I listened to it last, so I searched it up on YouTube. Lo and behold, the song “Beautiful Dream - Alexa Sleep Sounds” that I used to fall asleep to as a 12 year old is EXACTLY the same song that was used in that scene.
Can anybody shed some light on WHY TF lil’ 12 year old me was unknowingly falling asleep to the soundtrack of a gay furry VN? Cause the only other option I have here is that God himself predestined me to be a raging fluffy homosexual since my pre-pubescence.
So as far as I know, the song isn't original but actually comes from a stock album. You can find the song & album here Ondas do Mar na Areia da Praia. But ya funny coincidence lol
That explains it then… Thanks! The fact that the soundtrack was called ‘ost’, hinting at it being original, threw me off cause I thought there was someone ripping songs off of furry vns and putting them on Amazon lol
Thought I was gonna get a quick yank in, now I'm coming to peace with the overbearing truth of my mortality, getting help with my anger issues, and becoming social again.
Why the fuck did the gay furry porn heal me spiritually
After finishing this game, I was filled with profound melancholy and emptiness, because it was so astonishing yet had already come to an end. It took me two days to escape this state, but ultimately I burst into tears on the third afternoon after completing it. For me, Adastra has delivered an experience incomparable to other games of the same genre – not only because of its uniquely captivating worldview, but more importantly due to the relationship between protagonist Marco and Amicus. In my view, their bond doesn't require sex to establish. Sex is merely a delightful dessert to their love. Their affection resonated with me so deeply that I couldn't help but immerse myself in Marco's perspective. Although I don't agree with some of Marco's actions, they vividly portray his personality, as do nearly all characters in the game – especially Amicus. He made me disillusioned with reality, where "fast-food romance" reduces sex to the sole definition of love. Yet Amicus, whether inviting me to stroke his belly in the bedroom, embracing me helplessly in the coliseum, or shedding tears during our farewell, constantly revealed his purest and most unadorned love.Even now, I still miss my wolf deeply, and this lingering longing leaves me depressed and sorrowful. From the bottom of my heart, I hope to witness the eight-year reunion with my wolf within my lifetime. I also yearn to see new stories unfold for other characters like Neferu. Finally, my heartfelt thanks to every member of Echo Projects for presenting such an outstanding story that reignited my hope in life.（The above content has been machine-translated.）
one of Echo Projects worst works but still a decent story, i hope Khemia leans into the politics side of things (the only intriguing part of the whole story marco and amicus are insanely bland)
Sera que esta tendo algum problema no download, eu estou a 3 dias tentando instalar no meu pc microssoft, mas não esta o arquivo adastra.exe. para acessar o jogo.
I tried using the toturial in the comments, and I'm stuck since I have a android 14 and I tried doing it and every time I try downloading the file using download with options, it closes out of the app I already watched the videos posted in the comments like 11 times already
I am unable to download and install the apk file, i get the message "app not installed as app isnt compatible with your phone." My phone uses Android version 14 and One UI version 1.6 (dont know if thats nessecery but ill include it anyways)
Anyone know of a fix or can yall update it to be compatible
i repackaged the game using renpy8.3, java 21 and the base game for windows. it will not have the official logo or name as i am not part of project echo. tested with poco x6 pro. to project echo: update to the latest renpy, change jre to version 21, bring your keystores into the rapt folder and repackage. should work out of the box
Just got my first ever Pc played this and was shocked. The first Visual Novel I've ever done possibly going to be the best ever. The story is written so well and is very sad and devastating. But overall I'd recommend to anyone who loves visual novels especially gay romance. This really made me cry time and time again and is hard to explain. I recommend that everyone give it a try.
This game was a rollercoaster for me, I haven't felt that many different emotions before for one thing... I found this story very sad at lots of points like the main character was never able to settle down and chill out, it was always kept on the edge of something always happening not the way you'd expect.. This experience is surely leaving an itch on my heart now...
Wanted to replay this again but on my phone but the download for the android pack doesn't install since it's not compatible with Android Version 14. TuT pls fix.
I don't even know where to begin. I started this game with a huge attitude that visual novels seemed silly or not worth my time. I ended this game emotionally hurt from crying numerous times. I have read many "real" gay romance novels; I can safely say Adastra will go down as one of the best pieces of LGBTQ romance literature ever made. I am not even a furry, but I will without question recommend this to literally anyone that is open minded to gay romance.
This is the best game that I have played in years maybe even ever. the story is amazing, the characters are very though out and amazing, the ending wrapped everything up very well. I would love to see this game become a fully animated game. I would pay top dollar for it.
My first every visual novel I finished, not regrets loved it, I finished it years ago but I wish we could download it still now I have to watch YouTube videos on it T-T
So, has anyone thought of how Marco's family will react to not only him coming back, being the new messiah, joing the Galaxias, etc etc. The big revelation being their son is not only gay, but is engaged to an alien anthrowolf from across the galaxy. We need a sequel where they get to meet him, go to the wedding, meet the family, being royalty. Speaking of which, when they do get married, what position does that Marco in the royal family? Their can't be 2 people as emperor, and he's a dude so it wouldn't be queen, so what would he be? These 2 have been through so much together, they deserve to live the fairy tale life from now on, as much as possible. The parents said they would if he agreed to the deal. I'm praying to the God's there will be a sequel soon, we need to know, and we want to see a Wolven wedding so badly!!!!
I played this game a while back and I recently played it again. I swear to God this thing is designed to break your heart. I can't believe the story ended The way that it did.
I really Really really hope that they wrap this story up in a nice bow. I know the general direction of these visual novels is more realistic and life isn't always perfect and fantastic, but I feel like the only way for me to be satisfied in my life is to know that Marco and amicus get to have one. Guys you did a great job on this is and it got me into the VN scene. I hope one day even if it's not in the form of a game, we get to have some closure on the sweetest couple ever.
And if anybody wants to discuss the game, it's politics. It's character development, etc. You can always hit me up on Twitter. I'm probably also going to have to write some fanfiction to get through this haha
I cried 3 times playing this game, and another 6 AFTER playing the game simply because I remembered it, I really want to play the other two sequels but I used a fan translation so it's a little difficult for me to play the others, despite that I'll make an effort to manually translate whatever is most difficult to understand, but I think it's better to wait until I recover my emotional health that this game broke,
spoilers now,
I really hope that ending is true, happily ever after I say, if it isn't I don't know if I'll be able to trust love one day in my life, for the love of God creators, have mercy on my heart, I swear I don't know if I'm going to mentally handle what the end of this can do to me, and I'm not kidding
I used Google Translate to translate so sorry if something doesn't make sense in the text

WHAT IF, 8 years after the end of this visual novel—it'll be continued? Tbh at this point I just want to see some human and Amicus content again 😭😭😭😭😭
I recommend checking out the sequel ‘Khemia’ if you haven’t already. Still in progress for now, but it quenched my thirst a little.
My headcanon has Alexios sounding like Edd from Ed, Edd n Eddy.
I just made an account just to say that this game gave me, depression, a HUGE empty in me, grief and a lot of hours to cry 💔
The last scene made me cry because all of it are more likely alive to me, and i know how it feels to be left alone again
Okay, I just realised something INSANE… just hear me out for a second.

Can anybody shed some light on WHY TF lil’ 12 year old me was unknowingly falling asleep to the soundtrack of a gay furry VN? Cause the only other option I have here is that God himself predestined me to be a raging fluffy homosexual since my pre-pubescence.

Thank YOU SO MUCH!!!
I hope your merch is soon back in store... Thank you for This Game...
For Adastra.... For Amicus... all of it! <3
I am unable to download and install the apk file, i get the message "app not installed as app isnt compatible with your phone." My phone uses Android version 14 and One UI version 1.6 (dont know if thats nessecery but ill include it anyways)
Anyone know of a fix or can yall update it to be compatible
i repackaged the game using renpy8.3, java 21 and the base game for windows. it will not have the official logo or name as i am not part of project echo. tested with poco x6 pro. to project echo: update to the latest renpy, change jre to version 21, bring your keystores into the rapt folder and repackage. should work out of the box

Just got my first ever Pc played this and was shocked. The first Visual Novel I've ever done possibly going to be the best ever. The story is written so well and is very sad and devastating. But overall I'd recommend to anyone who loves visual novels especially gay romance. This really made me cry time and time again and is hard to explain. I recommend that everyone give it a try.
Try Echo next doing all the routes, it will absolutely break you.
This game was a rollercoaster for me, I haven't felt that many different emotions before for one thing... I found this story very sad at lots of points like the main character was never able to settle down and chill out, it was always kept on the edge of something always happening not the way you'd expect.. This experience is surely leaving an itch on my heart now...
Wanted to replay this again but on my phone but the download for the android pack doesn't install since it's not compatible with Android Version 14. TuT pls fix.
I don't even know where to begin. I started this game with a huge attitude that visual novels seemed silly or not worth my time. I ended this game emotionally hurt from crying numerous times. I have read many "real" gay romance novels; I can safely say Adastra will go down as one of the best pieces of LGBTQ romance literature ever made. I am not even a furry, but I will without question recommend this to literally anyone that is open minded to gay romance.
i just finished this, now i am sad
This is the best game that I have played in years maybe even ever. the story is amazing, the characters are very though out and amazing, the ending wrapped everything up very well. I would love to see this game become a fully animated game. I would pay top dollar for it.
please make another one that takes place after the 8 years went by. But you still play as the human
Android 14+ no longer supports 32bit applications so the developer will need to update it for it to work
this changed me. thank you for making this

playing this while making meth. BEST THING EVER
Playing this is like meth you're getting a double addiction hell yeah lol
My first every visual novel I finished, not regrets loved it, I finished it years ago but I wish we could download it still now I have to watch YouTube videos on it T-T
this game has everything, 10/10
After 4 years I'm gonna read this again because kehmia (sorry if I spelt that wrong) has me so excited. Can't wait to ball my eyes out again!!!
So, has anyone thought of how Marco's family will react to not only him coming back, being the new messiah, joing the Galaxias, etc etc. The big revelation being their son is not only gay, but is engaged to an alien anthrowolf from across the galaxy. We need a sequel where they get to meet him, go to the wedding, meet the family, being royalty. Speaking of which, when they do get married, what position does that Marco in the royal family? Their can't be 2 people as emperor, and he's a dude so it wouldn't be queen, so what would he be? These 2 have been through so much together, they deserve to live the fairy tale life from now on, as much as possible. The parents said they would if he agreed to the deal. I'm praying to the God's there will be a sequel soon, we need to know, and we want to see a Wolven wedding so badly!!!!
Well, towards the end of the game they do sort of give a vision of what the future looks like for Marco and amicus.
And in that future it doesn't look like the royal family stays a thing for very long.
That's not the true future, it's just a possible one. Unfortunately it doesn't happen and they are never to see each other again.
FR like Marco being an servants/pets and got backstabbed by Alexios but his family didn't even realize he was gone? for 1 month??
yup
being gay is still the most surprising part. the rest is just a regular tuesday.
I played this game a while back and I recently played it again. I swear to God this thing is designed to break your heart. I can't believe the story ended The way that it did.
I sometimes post about this game on my Twitter (nsfw sometimes) like this: https://x.com/Defacto_tron/status/1885972854367195397
I really Really really hope that they wrap this story up in a nice bow. I know the general direction of these visual novels is more realistic and life isn't always perfect and fantastic, but I feel like the only way for me to be satisfied in my life is to know that Marco and amicus get to have one. Guys you did a great job on this is and it got me into the VN scene. I hope one day even if it's not in the form of a game, we get to have some closure on the sweetest couple ever.
And if anybody wants to discuss the game, it's politics. It's character development, etc. You can always hit me up on Twitter. I'm probably also going to have to write some fanfiction to get through this haha
