It appears the creator of the Braixen Visual Novel games such as Dream Molder has gone... dark?
Since 2020, he has had some pretty bad health issues but assured he would be back when he feels better...
Until about 2021 where he has basically never come online since. ::sad_cute::
His website domain expired and unfortunately is assumed dead by most of his whole community.


Update, he came back online in 2024, mentioning issues with the visual novel engine being outdated and wanting to switch. As well as finding a new art style, while still recovering.
DW released the Live2D models used in hopes of getting it to work in GoDot or RenPy and was pleased to see the community wanting to help out or try to resurrect the project.
But there was some community drama after and afaik, DW is now gone again.

A community member named "V" was able to archive the main website on github as the site went offline last year:
https://github.com/indarkwatersmirror/indarkwatersmirror.github.io

I have also mirrored the archive to the CDN domain:
InDarkWaters Site Archive

I have also got almost every .ZIP file and extras here:

Hopefully hes good
Well actually, I got an update. He is alive and there's been talks about resurrecting the project in DMs.
But similar to my own games, it's in development hell due to outdated engine woes and problems. His problem being Visual Novel Maker
I'm switching to GoDot, and I hear that has Live2D support. Alternatively there's RenPy too.
IDW is open to getting help and assistance bringing his game back from, but might be rewritten and IDW mentioned his artstyle is a bit different now.

It has been a while since I've checked on him, IDW is happy to see how much of a following he made though!

is there a way to contact him? I've known this project years ago and I was worried that he might have went through something bad, if not, I would like him to know that I really like what he's done and I wish him the best

He did show up on discord a year ago, releasing the Live2D models and updating a couple things.
I've just updated this thread on the situation, there was a revival attempt in a new discord server but the owner of the resurrect server had a crashout.

Afaik the only way to contact him is via discord DM's, but I haven't heard since last year
