Some of my views after finishing the new version of the first chapter:
1) I'm not sure whether I should have read the character sheets at the main page of the game... there seems to be a major spoiler about "Tom"...
2) To the sprites - I like them, but in the scenes in which the characters sit by the table it seemed weird that they were suddenly standing when they talked.
3) When Gabe sees Chase in the bar, he calls him a man instead of boy. It doesn't feel right, Chase isn't that old. :)
4) Favourite sprite: angry Nix with raised brow.
5) I still love the "How do you eat a clockwork orange" line, it's so funny. :D
---
I love what Ty does for Nix in the chapter 2, it made me cry a little. And I'm so happy you didn't sprite out the scene with Chase, those some of your best CGs ever.
---
I liked chapter 3 and can't wait whether Nix tells others about Gabe. :)
I don't have a word to describe this game. It is just WOW, the game is so amazing and the story is so good, the CG, and etc. I can't wait to see the next update.
WHEN WILL BE BE NEXT UPDATE? can't waittt, anyways, when i saw the word "pagbabalik" like this creator is Filipino, so i am, or it is jut a misword, ung update be its been a month na, tagal mo mag update ante ko😿😭
Another highschool story, but I wasn't expecting the ghost twist. Intruiging.
I'm not sure if I would consider this horrified 😉
I have to say, I'm trying to like Tyler but somehow, he just doesn't get that essentially investing people to have sex with them (Nix excluded) might not be the most healthy way of doing it. Well, that's at least how he comes across.
I have to say, while the hand animation is pretty good, the leg hair doesn't look that realistic.
Hey. I just finished this story and it is so great. I really like the changes of the MC. It gives a different views of the characters and that is what makes this story great. I can't wait for more.
Totally in love with it. After playing the intro a while ago, I was so sad to think it would stay like this... Really happy you decided to continue this story. Looking forward to knowing what's coming in the future
Great start, proper foundation set down. I know we're all anxious for the next chapter(s) but this story is going to take some careful construction, isn't it? It will be worth the wait.
ok plzzzzz tell me there is more coming hahaha this was amazing i love when stores arent just about naked dudes but still have a bit there this is amazing all of your stories are its a 10/10
Fear not! There is more coming! We're actively doing scene work on the update now! Keep up with us on social media and the discord server for the most up to date behind the scenes tidbits!
not discontinued! Since this was just a test demo to gain interest - a lot of background work has needed to be done from Story Drafts, Character Creation, SubPlots, Concept Arts etc etc!
Finally some positive development. I knew you would start doing something with Hollow after you released New Hope update, but I really started to get skeptical. It's been almost a year now since the release of this demo.
We appreciate everyone's patience! We had some behind the scenes kinks to work out (including some personal and professional changes and MAJOR equipment overhaul on my part) but we are rocking and rolling now!
LOVE IT! This looks VERY promising! Amazing storytelling and great characters. I hope you guys won't torture us for too long after this cliffhanger and we will see an update soon.
I loved the demo really, really much! The characters look the best I've ever seen in any VN so far (even compared to NH, this is next level!) and I actually stopped several times just because Gabe looks like someone I know irl but I can't put my finger on who it is. Especially when he looks sad.
Writing is also great, the last scene made me cry a little. I really felt for both guys throughout the story and I love the slutty roommate. :)
I really hope there will be huge update soon. Must know what happens next and what happened before!
I just started the demo and I really like it. There is one thing that you could change: the color of the text in about and help. The white is difficult to read on the background image. Can't wait to see how it will evolve
From the amazing response, we have decided to go into full production! You can keep up to date with progress by joining the Discord server: https://discord.gg/YBeFB2XHnm
This is one great use of the game.. enjoyed it very very much. I like the concept and the storyline. not a few hours before i even downloaded it was having thoughts of what if i get to see a friendly ghost hahaha alas, and saw this novel of yours. Really excited to see more of this..
Really enjoying the writing and storyline so far. The two main characters are really relatable. Hooked already and can't wait to see where the story goes. I like that the chapters are from different characters' points of view. And nice cliffhanger...
Thank you! The writing is the most important part and we want to make sure that the games we create have great quality writing and narrative above all else :)

Thank you so much! Glad you’re enjoying it ☺️
Do you be the bottom or the top in the game?

Not dead. Watch the latest Apollo Studios Q&A video for details on Hollow and the future for our projects.

I really loved the plot, is super interesting and out of schemes.

Sooo, really good job and thanks for your work <3
A kind hug
I loved both the story and the graphics! Looking forward to more of it 😏
Android version worked fine for me. I was captivated by both the artwork and the story. Can't wait for more.
Might wish to include some type of alert or idk when a cutscene is starting. I almost skipped past it.
Totally in love with it. After playing the intro a while ago, I was so sad to think it would stay like this... Really happy you decided to continue this story. Looking forward to knowing what's coming in the future
Really very nice... wait for more. ;-)

We’re excited to bring V0.1 hopefully very soon!

Thanks for this ❤️
Working with kinks sounds … entertaining 😉
Your writing got me. I really enjoy reading all of your novels and Hollow is not exception it looks interesting. Above all, don't stop writing <3
Looking forward to an update on this game, it looks great!
Hasn't been updated since November, so I'm just curious if you so plan on continuing the game. It's really good so far. Hope you do continue
Yes game will be continuing! We hit some behind the scenes delays but we're rocking and rolling now!
I enjoyed the demo. It is a promising start and I’d like to see what happens next - always a good sign when reading a book!
Definitely interested to see where this goes. Hopefully, we won't have to wait too long!
So... when can we expect new part? :) I really have to know what will happen next!

Good lord, that ending!!!
The quality and story are as brilliant as i expected after enjoying NH. So incredibly well done! I can't wait to continue both of your VNs on here. 🥰
Thank you for playing! So happy you enjoyed both games ☺️ Sorry about the ending, but had to keep you all guessing 😜 haha!
I just started the demo and I really like it. There is one thing that you could change: the color of the text in about and help. The white is difficult to read on the background image. Can't wait to see how it will evolve
I'll take that into consideration! Thank you for your comment :D
OH COME ONE YOU CAN'T END LIKE THAT
I have to say, this is another great game that I really look forward too. Hope to see lots of updates :)
I absolutely, 100% agree!
When I started the demo my expectations weren't very high, but I ended up absolutely loving it! Please continue!
Glad to have exceeded expectations! We are currently hard at work on the first update :D
Excellent and compelling story and characters- please develop the full-time production - thank you kindly!
From the amazing response, we have decided to go into full production! You can keep up to date with progress by joining the Discord server: https://discord.gg/YBeFB2XHnm
