I'm interested in this giveaway. Thanks a lot for doing it! Here are my impressions so far from the demo.
-the music is good, but more than that it really helps set the mood. I played with headphones and it all sounded pretty good.
-I like the art, though I guess I didn't need to Plat the demo for that (I can just look at the screens hots on Steam)
-I'm not a huge fan of some of the prose, but overall the writing is pretty good
-I'm liking the story so far; there's this sort of creepy vibes it's giving, and like a curious car, I want to know more
-I like the chapter setup
Overall, I found it pretty good. Already have it on my wishlist thanks to Shizuka raving about it. I'm pretty cheap though, so I'm waiting for a 75/66% off sale, lol.

Completed the demo and if the game can keep up the quality, sign me up!
I thought the 1st door took too long to get things going but at least the conclusion was satisfying enough. The 2nd one, however, was engaging from the start and the ending took me entirely by surprise when it turned from a
to a
Very disturbing and at the same time fascinating.
Initially, I wasn't that eager to try the game, hence joining in at the last moment, but now I would gladly devote many more hours to exploring all the, I'm assuming, depressing and tragic stories the house has to offer.

tale of the fragility of our humanity.

I finally played the demo, so my thoughts:
Firstly, when music started i said is this NieR? Damn that was so good! I liked all the ost so far, now i need OST too, lol.
Story, characters and atmosphere seems very interesting and strong so far, i'm curious so much about what happened here! (or to be. So much questions/theories) I also liked art so much!
Somethings unique with that syle, fitting concept as perfectly. Writing is also very nice so far, i really liked also with so much variety terms. [The best about VN's i'm learning so much new english (english in not my first language) terms while playing with takes notes and this one have so much new terms for me increase my vocabulary.]
Basically i love everything with the demo! (So much strong scenes so far but
) I can only wish for better quality backgrounds, high res 2d arts with widescreen option and maybe some voice for characters would be nice. but these are not so important things for sure other elements of the game are already so strong. This is definitely very unique VN and glad i finally tried with this giveaway excuse! Thanks to OniBaka for this, your strategy definitely worked on me. 
I can see many tears will drop (already happened.) in this story with so many different emotions and i'm ready for that! And if demo like this, than can't imagine about full game!.. [I didn't finish demo yet, (didn't expect this long.) need to sleep before more play, i'm at
]
Hope to win! Even if i'm not going to win hoping too buy soon! Btw, i already wrote here about i'm interest for game, should i edit my previous message or this is enough to enter for "who played demo" giveaway?

(Child Nellie and Mell are so cute *-* Also you still didn't ask her name Mell? Lol)
Basically i love everything with the demo! (So much strong scenes so far but
paint scene about completed before Nellie was so intense, i was in shock with that music damn it! And what happened after that, wtf Nellie!.. But i knew she going to be trouble, but like this, poor thing...)

Love your impressions, this message is enough don't have to edit.
If you're already crying on the first door, I can't imagine what's going to happen in the later doors.

It's the most mature story I have seen in the medium (both video games and visual novels).
The characters are, without exaggeration, the best-developed characters I have ever seen in a game or visual novel.
S;G is more on the anime-like, relatively whimsical and over-the-top side of the VN genre.
This VN's pretty much the polar opposite in that regard, the stories are somber (to say the least) and much more down-to-earth.

Now that that's over as above the game is on sale at steam until the 5th so now is the best time to get it.
If you're not sure whether you'll like it then at least try the demo and post impressions in OT.
For those that won, we would love to hear your impressions in the OT.
Big thanks to those in the OT that supported me in this, posting impressions here and getting the thread bumped, it really means a lot to me.

Was hoping to win but congrats to those that did and thanks to OP (and others) that gave away copies. It was an incredibly generous thing to do.
Now that's revelant news that should be shared everywhere.
Yup and there is also Another Episode OST.
I wonder if we're getting Another Episode this year.
With the speed of the translation Ive seen with the updates I expect late 2017 or early 2018.

Congrats to the winners! Now I can go ahead and buy the game on Steam.
I'm giving away copies to these five posters:

But I don't have steam keys for it so you need to pm me your Steam ID so I can gift it to you on Steam. Also make sure your profile is public so I can add you as a friend since apparently that's the only way to gift things now.
Disclaimer: make sure you pm me before the sale ends or offer is invalid

Thank you OniBaka for starting this giveaway and congrats to all of the winners! My face lit up like a freaking candle when I saw I had the orange PM notification, I can't believe it.
I was going to start playing almost immediately after I hit submit, the only thing I have to decide is if I want to start from the beginning or start where I left off in the demo...but who am I kidding? I want to know what happens next.

Congrats to the winners! Think I'm gonna try and pick it up while it's on sale - can't ignore this much praise for a single game.
Hope to see you, the winners and those who bought the game this week in the thread posting impressions as you guys progress through it.

Absolutely!
mangagamer games dont usually do big discounts tbh.
The game is already dirt cheap by VN standards.
Exactly so this is a pretty good price to go for it.

Yeah, look at stuff like clannad and the fruits of grisia on steam.
And this is waaaaaay better than those 2.
