hi! Thanks so much for playing ^^ can you please elaborate on your issue? You can send screenshots to harlevinvns@gmail.com and I’ll figure out what’s going on 😊
it worked when i tried again later so its okay <33 tho i have another question, theres one cg that i havent gotten and its the 8th one on the 2nd page, how do i get that one? <33
only in ch 1 so far, & i'm loving the humor. i adore paris but i had to pick rafeal cause he's so dang hot.
though looking at the comments, i'm a little concerned: if there's nothing in this that's nsfw, why did it come up in an nsfw search? i also saw a comment saying that there was nsfw stuff in celestial crowns, which i also found in this search & played, but i saw nothing in that which was nsfw either. i've barely found anything on the entire search page that is nsfw at all... it's making me doubt the trustworthiness of itch.io's search function, & possibly the tags on any of these games
hello! Thanks for playing. Celestial crowns is rated nsfw for content that will be in future chapters. I thought it best to add the tags now even though there is no nsfw content in the demo. The pretenders guild has a tag for adult content due to some romantic scenes later in chapter five. They’re not explicit but I wanted to be safe.
I'm writing to let you know "Harlevin" and "The Pretenders Guild" isn't showing up in the itch.io search function. For "Harlevin", it says "No results found" whereas it simply does not list "The Pretenders Guild" at all. It does show up using a search engine under "The Pretenders Guild" + "site: itch.io". Thought I should let you know.
I just checked all your titles and "Celestial Crowns" doesn't show up in the search lists either. The rest do (Arena Circus, Lilith Hall, Mnemonic Devices).
Edited to add: "The Pretenders Guild" doesn't show-up in the game tag lists either. So checking "otome", "character customization", etc, it isn't listed in any of them.
Hello, thanks for bringing this to my attention! I checked and it does come up when I search, but only if I'm logged in. I'm going to contact itch.io support and see if I can find the issue.
I was logged-in when I searched. I just searched again now while logged-in and it's still not showing up for me. Not your creator name "Harlevin" nor "The Pretenders Guild" nor is "Celestial Crowns". I tried searching while logged-out too to make certain, no dice. I don't know if you can find them through the search function because you're the creator or if perhaps something is going wrong on my end. Maybe having someone else check too would be useful.
I have a question. I really like Rafael and was wondering how to do the romance path for him. I'm already playing as the shika race (and have ash saying that he's hot) and have done the scene on the boat where you help him catch rats, but beyond that, I have no idea what to do.
In this game, it's not always the direct flirty or romance options that will get you on their route. Each character has a specific type of personality trait that they respond well to, and you will know based on the sparkles that show when picking the right one
Okay, thanks for the info. As I'm blind, I probably won't be able to figure out the personality traits thing very easily. That's why I was asking for a guide or something. If you don't mind that is. If not, that's alright. I still enjoy the game, so I'll keep playing regardless. And thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
oh you are blind? I'm sorry for not reading your previous comment first. unfortunately there isn't an official guide. I'm sorry I don't think the developer made this fully considering possible issues with sight impaired people, since they purposely, added those visual effects to make it obvious you are choosing the right answers. So simply put Rafael tends to respond well towards smart personality and only can romance in shika or cubi races. Paris tends to respond well towards flirty personality and only can romance in cubi or reaver races. Lastly Braums (aka the rich guy) tends to respond well towards nice personality and only can be romance in shika and reaver races.
Unfortunately I don't have the time to give you the specific personality trait that works for each situation, but in my summary when I say "tends", that suggests that those specific personality traits work most the time, you may have to just experiment a bit to get the right choice for certain situations. My advice in those situations is think what would truly work best when listening to the dialogue while also considering the personality of the character. I hope this helps and maybe someone will right you a guide on here.
That actually might help a bit (personality traits I can definitely experiment with). So far, I've gotten the Broms route (I think I spelled that right). Thanks for the help.
I am having lots of fun with this game. I've gotten to chapter 3 and am really enjoying how the story changes depending on which race you have Ash as. As a blind player, I'd like to say that accessibility with blind-user programs does work in case someone asks about that. There are a few buttons that give me trouble sometimes, but there's ways around that (saving a lot and trying out options). I really love the story and a lot of the interactions are very funny and keep the story interesting. So glad it's voice acted too cause that definitely enhances the experience.
love this game sm !!!! the writing is great and funny and kept making me smile :] and i rlly rlly like how ash feels like their own fleshed out character while also having customizable traits ash is suuuuuuch a good mc. ive only gotten one of the endings (spoiler: it was the bad ending w/ paris getting stabbed and i honestly have NO idea what i did wrong LOLLLL so if anyone has any insight thatd be appreciated) but i cant wait to check out the other endings :]
I should take the time to write down a proper review at some point, but for now-- I just need to say that I lose my shit in Ch. 1 when Rafael says "I'm sorry about your tough childhood, Paris," every. single. time.

I’ll look into this!
This looks like a Braums CG, you will get this one just by playing his route!
genuinely one of the best otome games I've played (and ive played probably too many)
I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! Thank you for playing 😊
I really had fun playing this game but Paris and Rafael voices would randomly decrease.
only in ch 1 so far, & i'm loving the humor. i adore paris but i had to pick rafeal cause he's so dang hot.

:C
sadly not, if you want NSFW, get Lust doll. It's a great game, but only has two named male characters.
ty
no problem!
Hah! Not this time, BUT in my next game, you can expect some spicy nsfw scene. you can follow it here: https://harlevin.itch.io/celestial-crowns

Hello, I'm so sorry I didn't see this post sooner! Let me know if you are still interested in a guide, and I will happily put one together for you.

Hi! Thanks so much for playing. I've just updated this page with a guide to the good endings. :)
I should take the time to write down a proper review at some point, but for now-- I just need to say that I lose my shit in Ch. 1 when Rafael says "I'm sorry about your tough childhood, Paris," every. single. time.
Thank you so much for the game! One of the best and my favorite!
