I was amazed by how much I enjoyed Aramis's route. I was just sitting and smiling though much of his route and actually got butterflies with some of his teasing, which very very rarely happens (and I read a lot of romance and look for it in games). I liked how the MC was cautious but did not act afraid of her sexuality (which seems to be a frustrating theme in many otome games I have tried). I loved how the writing showed sensuality in a way that I really enjoyed, through flirting and affectionate touches. I think Aramis is joining the short list of my fictional boyfriends :-)
I absolutely and utterly adored this game, so much so that I couldn't help but complete the whole thing in one sitting! The soundtrack, the writing, the voice acting- the whole game is such a masterpiece. The characters feel so real, so natural.
Even the slightest things- Kujo's short windows into his softness, Aramis's vulnerability, their protectiveness, all of it contributes to the fluttery feeling that playing this gives me. Not a single scene seemed forced or poorly written, I enjoyed every single second that I played!
I can't wait to see what you guys do in the future! I'm certain anything that comes from this team will be amazing, just like this game. Great work!
AHHH I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS GAME!!!!! YOU GUYS DID NOT MISSSSSS!!!!!!! You guys have that "It' factor to make some really great games and stories; I hope your team plans to make more in the future!!!! I enjoyed every second of it and the voice acting really tied it together nicely. They both did incredible and somehow fit so perfectly! I was so flustered with those flirty lines from Aramis's VA lmfao I was screaming the whole time!! Really loved the pacing and as others mentioned, how you showed healthy relationship values/respect/consent through your writing.
And for character development, omgggg I loved them all! The main character's thirstiness was so relatable 😂 lmfao but yeah I really loved the depth to all the characters. Characters are one of my favorite things to like go on a tangent about and psychoanalyze, especially the darker sides of people, so I just won't 😂 But just know I loved them all! and you guys did amazing creating them! SO appreciative that you guys created characters with so much realistic depth to them and complexity that often kind of gets not explored so well in otomes (or if it is, it'll be kind of archetypal characters with the typical sorts of personalities and struggles. I like how these characters actual felt REAL with their own, specific problems and not just problems that an author made up for the sake of making up, ya know? Doesn't feel forced in.) Here I go with my tangent lmfao lemme stop!
Goshhhh I really really hope you guys have more things planned, I have major respect for writers like yourselves with the talent you have to not only make an interesting story that I can't stop obsessively reading, but also a story that's just done SO well in terms of form and skill. So kudos to the writers and editors for putting a concise narrative together! Major respect for the artists as well as I really enjoyed the character art and the user interface's unique aesthetic. For the music, I thought the music was super cute and fit the theme of the game perfectly. Wasn't distracting and perfectly complementary for the game. Last but not least, shutout to the coders as well for making this all possible and their efforts! You guys are all amazing!
Sorry for the gushing and long review ._. I will be greedily hoping that and waiting for you guys to post more work in the future. 😬😬
Despite your compliments on the writing, I don't have the words to adequately respond to this comment in the way you probably deserve, but just know this made me cry.
I have constant feelings of self-doubt regarding my VN work and contributions, but this post... I think I need to print it off and keep it close by me.
I'm incredibly lucky to have found such talented people to work on this game with me, as each and every one of them did a stellar job in their contributions (and also putting up with me!) Very blessed to have them, as for all the reasons you pointed out!
Your psycho analysis is definitely welcome though 😉
As for future games, if all goes to plan, I will be back for Winter VN Jam with an ice skatinf themed otome! Hopefully I can earn your praise with that too <3
Thank you so much for everything you have written ❤️
Omg now you're gonna make me cry ;_; Okay sorry in advance, but....I'm about to leave another wall of text because I have to speak my mind! It's REALLY long so be prepared >.<
As a fellow person in the arts, (video editing/ography,) and in a world where art is not always appreciated at that, I completely get the self-doubt and relate too much. I wish I could remove the doubts from your mind and you can view your own work like others view it! I know it's not as simple as someone telling you your writing is amazing for you to believe it but >.< Damnit it's true lol!!! I'm losing my mind haha it's always the hella talented artists being insecure!! You should be feeling arrogant instead. 😂 All I can do is tell you that I'm completely gushing over your work and I was shook that you weren't some major development team with a bunch of games already released like the Japanese otome studios do. And okay, I just peeped that you wrote for DUFE and OMGGG >.< That was my fave game from that jam so like?! And I also played and loved Snow Angel and Far Shore too, didn't know you were like the main writer for that studio so I'm even further amazed! You managed to give so much depth to those characters for such short games, again I see the complexity in the characters that seems to be a unique skill of yours?! The nuances and thought you put in here is not lost on me! I'm sure you have a lot of nuances and thoughts and hard work and hourrrrrss that you put in that the readers may not consciously observe due to most people not being literary analysts, but the enjoyment people experience reading your work speaks for it being noticed subconsciously! The effort you put in and subtextual information really does not go unnoticed and makes for a wonderful reading experience. I guess to wrap up about all that, all of these stories made me emotional and really feel immersed in the world that was created. The type of immersion where you can forget all your problems and escape away; snuggle up on a lazy evening and experience a whole emotional experience removed from reality. Really be there with the characters, you know? My only issue was wanting more of all of these stores and being disappointed when they were over LOL. That whole "what am I supposed to do with my life now?" feeling you get after reading a good story, and the emptiness, the void starts creeping in. 😂😂
To be totally honest with you, I'm very picky when it comes to stories. I only praise and read ones I enjoy. I'm 24 and between VNs, books, games, and fanfictions, I've been reading/playing since I was a single digit year old kid. I've gone through hundreds and I'm just very picky on what I consume. I drop stories that I can't really get immsersed in. And definitely don't sit for literal hours writing these overly-long walls of text unless I did enjoy it haha. For every few games or stories I enjoyed and react positively to, there's tons more where I was just like meh and said nothing about. Or just kinda casually enjoyed but wouldn't write home about or anything. I'm not anyone important to be some measurement of standard but for what it's worth, you have a picky reader that enjoys your work so just know that I would not bother if I did not value your work!
Lol but, I know it sounds like I'm just sucking up at this point but it's honestly my sincere feelings and I find it important to share them. A lot of times people will enjoy a game or story but not comment and so I wanted to take the time to let you know that your work is valuable. All it takes is one intrusive thought of self doubt or one critical/negative comment to ruin your confidence when it comes to being vulnerable with your art, even if you have hundreds of positive comments. I want to at least share my positive thought because even if someone else or your own mind critiques you, I want you to know that there are still tons of people, myself included, who love your work and believe that what you create is valuable! Your work is valuable and YOU are valuable.
Anyways, I think I've taken enough of your time tonight ._. I kinda just realized how much I typed. I'm sooo sorry omg, I do have a habit of typing entirely too much and tell myself every time that I will type less...clearly to no avail. 😂 But I like to communicate; kindaa in theme to your story with Aramis but I don't ever like to leave your room for doubt or guessing. If something makes me feel positive, I want that person to know. It breaks my heart that someone so talented feels constant self doubt, but...alas it's the curse of an artist. You are incredibly brave and powerful for continuing to create and vulnerably put your work out there despite the self doubt. I know it can be disheartening and frustrating sometimes, but don't forget that this isn't just work but is something that brings you joy too! Whenever you feel lost or unsure, just go back to that happy place with writing, even if it is taking a break and working on some random fanfic writing prompt on Tumblr or something lol. Or engage in other ways that engage your creativity. I literally just noticed that that's also reletable to Aramis's route lol!
You're clearly a pro so I'm sure you have your vices without me telling you. Just know that I am inspired and proud of you and for putting your work out there! And actually finishing something that one starts is difficult, so you are a badass! You don't have to say anything in particular to my raving review here LOL, might be overwhelming asf to read but you definitely do not owe me some grand response back. I am just happy if it brings you any amount of pride and validation because you definitely SHOULD feel that!
Anyways, that's all! (Sorrryyyy againnn omfg ^^") SUPER EXCITED to hear the news about your future project!!! I already know it'll be fantastic, like no pressure but you've already earned my trust in your writing so 😂 Will definitely be looking out!
Hi! I can't seem to get the good ending with Aramis! Could you by any chance tell me what order of choices I have to make? Feel free to format it like "top>bottom>top" or something like that so there's no spoilers, thanks!
top > bottom > top is... actually right lmao :) that should get you the good end! sorry for making it so you have to get all the right choices, in hindsight that wasn't the best decision, ahhh
Oh! Thanks, I just tried to come up with a random example lol! If I were to give my 2 cents on it, I think that requiring all the correct choices isn't an issue since there's only 3, the problem is there seems to be a lack feedback on if you did the right choice or not, a choice adds more lines but it still leads to the same line eventually which advances the scene (like how in the choice after the park date choosing the top one simply skips to him teasing).
*Potential spoilers for Kujo's route!!!* ohmygod ! The first Kujo ending i got left me feeling sickkk! Like it felt already too late when I finally realized what was happening. I guess I deserved it after changing choices I made when they didn't at first seem like the right one...(which I think because of that it was so well/realistically done!). It was fascinating to watch play out, but admittedly left me feeling really weird inside before I finally understood. So interesting! I haven't got Kudos good ending yet, I had to run on here to discuss this particular ending!
hi, i'm trying playing on Mac and I can't because it gives me an error and says it's not verified by the creator. Is there any way you or someone else could help me thank you :)
Hi there! I think this is a security setting on your mac to protect from malware and other files from unreputable sources. I believe this can be an issue for many games downloaded from Itch as they are not from more traditional or well-known publishers/developers.
I am sadly not a mac user but apparently, you can CTRL + CLICK, then open it via finder this way to override this mechanism. Alternatively, you could download the Itch desktop app, which handles all the files automatically and might avoid this issue.
Hey! This game is pretty awesome. I really like the characters.
The Kujo ending I got really messed me up inside, I think it was a perfect depiction of how dangerous love becomes when a person thinks its their duty to 'protect and shield' their partner whilst not respecting their independence. It was terrifying to see the main character become so manipulative. (also daymn guess my decisions lead to this mess LOL)
On that note, Aramis' route shot me in the HEART damn it got me in the mega feels. Somehow I got his good ending, but i just love how him and the protagonist had a heart to heart and ended up on the same page! That kind of romantic growth is just a pleasure to see. Thank god i got a happy end LMAO
The protagonist is a great character. I like their different dimensions from flirty to self-depreciating to confident and even really vulnerable/ open sometimes.
Thanks for the awesome free game, it was way more emotional and heart rendering than I originally anticipated it to be. Excellent job!!!
Hello! I played both routes a few days ago and thoroughly enjoyed myself; I love both LIs so much! <3
However, I don't know if it's just me but for some reason whenever I tried to start a new game after today's update (on a different pc from the one I used when I first played so it's a completely new install), after I submit my MC's biodata the game skips to a particular scene in the middle of Kujo's route ("Some days passed, then before I knew it, it had been weeks.") instead of continuing the opening scene. I've tried starting again several times, uninstalling and reinstalling, and it keeps happening so I'm not sure what's going on. @_@ Any help would be appreciated!
Wow y'all, I really just fricked this update :') This should be fixed if you re-download the latest files. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience ;__; <3
I ADOOORED Aramis (big shoutout to his VA as well)! In all though, you guys did so well in creating something so sweet, especially when it delved into healthy communication and consent. It was all super lovely <3
Thank you! Cory definitely did an amazing job as him. Thank you for your kind words, the healthy communication was definitely something that we wanted to achieve so I'm glad to hear it worked out!
This was very sweet! I'm not sure which of the 2 is my favorite - I loved Kujo and Aramis both equally. Although I did get Kujo's good end blindly, while when I played Aramis, I got his bad end while playing blindly (so I clearly know how to navigate Kujo more authentically lol). Both of them hit different needs and I love how Riley acts with both of them. Part of me secretly wants a Poly/OT3 route with Kujo and Aramis, but honestly, neither one of them seems like the sharing type. 😉
Very nicely done. Also the VA's for both are *chef's kiss*. But I have to say, some of Aramis's lines made me BLUSH. WOOF. Congrats y'all (and you can share this comment to your VA team!)
This was such a great game !! I adored Kujo and Aramis, and both of their storylines were really lovely and interesting. I had a sweet time playing it, so thank you :)
Cute story, at least as far as I read. I got to where I had to choose and with both of them standing there, I realized IRL I just wouldnt be able to make that kind of choice. It would be too unkind. So I simply closed the game, and came here to say thanks for the chance to read it. Loved the art work, it was a little more realistic(?) than Im used to but it was also very comfortable.
Man, I love this. This was so much fun. Such diverse duo, for sure. It was kind of hard to pick, too. And then going through them both, it also ended up being a bit difficult to pick a favourite, ha. But this was so well-done. The pacing is great, the music is wonderful, the characters are just awesome (blushing and making me blush, A+). Both of the LIs have their strongpoints, and are both super relatable. The MC is super incredibly relatable. She’s also super fun and fiesty, which is very refreshing. I loved it. Thank you for all your hard work!
I don’t think you could give us a better compliment than “hey, both LIs are great, I can’t decide who I like better *and* I loved the MC, too”! Thank you so, so much <3
SUPER MINOR. Just wanted to mention one of the dialogue pieces says “I can stop the instant, electric feeling..” - and I’m pretty sure it should be “cannot”.
And another place, “he diverts the attraction to me before..” - should be “attention”.
This is such a great game! So truly, this is a drop in the bucket because everything else more than makes up for these super minor things. The guys are great, the stories are great. Even the ‘bad endings’ are great. I love it all.
Okay, so I just spent the last few hours spewing my adoration all over discord AND twitter so you probably know where this is going BUT.
I LOVE THEM OKAY.
BOTH OF THEM.
After Aramis I felt like I was cheating on my One True Husband but now they BOTH are my One True Husband and honestly I just want an end where I keep 'em both and we become a really healthy throuple.
From a dev standpoint, I'm completely blown away by all you've done in so little time as well. Both routes are really polished, the writing is SUPERB, the MC is relatable and hilarious, art is brilliant, so is the GUI... can't fault it.
"Must. Fill. Silence."
Describes my entire personality and honestly I feel simultaneously seen and honestly so attacked rn.
Also the sprites for both boys (in this case I will say aramis wins just because omfg, have you seen that side-eye?) are amazing and I spent most of the game feeling like I really needed a cold shower.
Oh. Right. The VA almost gave me several heart attacks, especially in steamier situations.
ANYWAY. Lived it, loved it, wish there was more ❤️😊
THANK YOU so much for your kind words, it's kinda overwhelming to hear such praise and love for our little baby. It really means so much, so happy you enjoyed it! 💖
Were you clicking the white frame of the polaroid? I found I wasn’t able to save/load unless you click the date/white lower border/frame of the polaroid - not the picture part, but the white frame (at the bottom).
I ran into the same problem at first to, Saving never worked clicking the inside of the photographs. I eventually figured out its possible to save by clicking the bottom white rectangle of the photographs instead of the picture inside.
I love the art! Especially both of these guys >3< they were lovely. I like the bgm you insert, its refreshing and the fact that there's also a voice acting yaa~ haven't finish it yet tho
Hello! I play it again because it's my vacation but im stuck at which among them to choose. I mean, both the sprite is kind of dark so im sure i must click between them but no matter what I do. Nothing happens.
hi!! I don't know if you already have, but have you tried installing the latest version? We did have this issue before but worked to resolve it, so hopefully in the latest version it should be fixed <3
Hi until the screen for chose the boy I can play. But I can't choose one boy, and i have a hard time when I am going save, I can't save with mouse, and just could save using the arrows and enter.
And the game is amazing, I am in love with the art, the story is very nice. but I need suggest for you build classificated in renpy, all you archives are exposed. Maybe this can get you game heavy.
Thanks for amazing game, everyone in team are wonderful, each game part is so pretty. Congrats for amazing game
Hopefully this is fixed now with the new update. Thank you so much for your kind words and for your suggestion - first time actually handling the publishing, oops!
Were you clicking the white frame of the polaroid? I found I wasn’t able to save/load unless you click the date/white lower border/frame of the polaroid - not the picture part, but the white frame (at the bottom).
Would anyone mind sending me an email at lunamakaio@outlook.com so I can try sending you a fresh build to see if it fixes the issue? We are having trouble testing it as it worked for all the team before publishing! ;__;
absolutely! co-writer here, i can try and help :D feel free to contact us through email/twitter too so that we can share potential spoiler information with you!

So blessed to hear you enjoyed the game so much!
Thank you for connecting with our boys and for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment ❤️
Feel free to follow on twitter if you aren't already. Some of the team is back together to create a game for Winter Jam!
AHHH I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS GAME!!!!! YOU GUYS DID NOT MISSSSSS!!!!!!!

Hi! I can't seem to get the good ending with Aramis! Could you by any chance tell me what order of choices I have to make? Feel free to format it like "top>bottom>top" or something like that so there's no spoilers, thanks!
Hi there!
top > bottom > top is... actually right lmao :) that should get you the good end!
sorry for making it so you have to get all the right choices, in hindsight that wasn't the best decision, ahhh
hope that helps and you enjoy the good end!! <3

lol, I surely did! and my heart most definitely healed <3 great job and great game!
i love game so cute
i loved the cute slow burn writing from kujos route I cant wait to play the rest this was so amazing so far!
i played kujo route and it was so wholesome honestly...
when THEE scene came up and it skipped to morning i was so shocked that there wasnt any art for it..still amazing nevertheless.
hi, i'm trying playing on Mac and I can't because it gives me an error and says it's not verified by the creator. Is there any way you or someone else could help me thank you :)

It was terrifying to see the main character become so manipulative. (also daymn guess my decisions lead to this mess LOL)
On that note, Aramis' route shot me in the HEART damn it got me in the mega feels. Somehow I got his good ending, but i just love how him and the protagonist had a heart to heart and ended up on the same page! That kind of romantic growth is just a pleasure to see. Thank god i got a happy end LMAO
The protagonist is a great character. I like their different dimensions from flirty to self-depreciating to confident and even really vulnerable/ open sometimes.
Thanks for the awesome free game, it was way more emotional and heart rendering than I originally anticipated it to be. Excellent job!!!
Hello! I played both routes a few days ago and thoroughly enjoyed myself; I love both LIs so much! <3
However, I don't know if it's just me but for some reason whenever I tried to start a new game after today's update (on a different pc from the one I used when I first played so it's a completely new install), after I submit my MC's biodata the game skips to a particular scene in the middle of Kujo's route ("Some days passed, then before I knew it, it had been weeks.") instead of continuing the opening scene. I've tried starting again several times, uninstalling and reinstalling, and it keeps happening so I'm not sure what's going on. @_@ Any help would be appreciated!
I had the same problem ^ any fix?
Wow y'all, I really just fricked this update :') This should be fixed if you re-download the latest files. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience ;__; <3
Is this game going to be available to download anywhere? Or is it just a bug that I can't see the download button ahaha
Sadly I'm kinda dumb and I forgot to show the new files when updating... oops. This should be fixed now so you can download the latest version!
Thank you! Hyped!
I ADOOORED Aramis (big shoutout to his VA as well)! In all though, you guys did so well in creating something so sweet, especially when it delved into healthy communication and consent. It was all super lovely <3
Thank you! Cory definitely did an amazing job as him.
Thank you for your kind words, the healthy communication was definitely something that we wanted to achieve so I'm glad to hear it worked out!
Sooo where can I find an Aramis in real life, asking for a friend?!
If you find him, can you let us know?
Thanks for enjoying him <3
This was very sweet! I'm not sure which of the 2 is my favorite - I loved Kujo and Aramis both equally. Although I did get Kujo's good end blindly, while when I played Aramis, I got his bad end while playing blindly (so I clearly know how to navigate Kujo more authentically lol). Both of them hit different needs and I love how Riley acts with both of them. Part of me secretly wants a Poly/OT3 route with Kujo and Aramis, but honestly, neither one of them seems like the sharing type. 😉
Very nicely done. Also the VA's for both are *chef's kiss*. But I have to say, some of Aramis's lines made me BLUSH. WOOF. Congrats y'all (and you can share this comment to your VA team!)
Thank you so much for your kind words!!
I think I make really obtuse choices, whereas Jane's with Kujo's actually make sense, hah!
If neither seems like sharing, doesn't that just make it all the more fun? ;)
thank you again <3
This was such a great game !! I adored Kujo and Aramis, and both of their storylines were really lovely and interesting. I had a sweet time playing it, so thank you :)
Cute story, at least as far as I read. I got to where I had to choose and with both of them standing there, I realized IRL I just wouldnt be able to make that kind of choice. It would be too unkind. So I simply closed the game, and came here to say thanks for the chance to read it. Loved the art work, it was a little more realistic(?) than Im used to but it was also very comfortable.
Man, I love this. This was so much fun. Such diverse duo, for sure. It was kind of hard to pick, too. And then going through them both, it also ended up being a bit difficult to pick a favourite, ha. But this was so well-done. The pacing is great, the music is wonderful, the characters are just awesome (blushing and making me blush, A+). Both of the LIs have their strongpoints, and are both super relatable. The MC is super incredibly relatable. She’s also super fun and fiesty, which is very refreshing. I loved it. Thank you for all your hard work!
I don’t think you could give us a better compliment than “hey, both LIs are great, I can’t decide who I like better *and* I loved the MC, too”! Thank you so, so much <3
No, thank you! I’m really happy for us, everybody that gets to play your game! Thank you :)
SUPER MINOR. Just wanted to mention one of the dialogue pieces says “I can stop the instant, electric feeling..” - and I’m pretty sure it should be “cannot”.
And another place, “he diverts the attraction to me before..” - should be “attention”.
Thank you for nothing these down! We’ll tackle them with the next update <3
Really not a big deal AT ALL! No worries!
This is such a great game! So truly, this is a drop in the bucket because everything else more than makes up for these super minor things. The guys are great, the stories are great. Even the ‘bad endings’ are great. I love it all.
while i was reading the info before downloading the file, the protag's profile is literally almost like me-
Okay, so I just spent the last few hours spewing my adoration all over discord AND twitter so you probably know where this is going BUT.
I LOVE THEM OKAY.
BOTH OF THEM.
After Aramis I felt like I was cheating on my One True Husband but now they BOTH are my One True Husband and honestly I just want an end where I keep 'em both and we become a really healthy throuple.
From a dev standpoint, I'm completely blown away by all you've done in so little time as well. Both routes are really polished, the writing is SUPERB, the MC is relatable and hilarious, art is brilliant, so is the GUI... can't fault it.
"Must. Fill. Silence."
Describes my entire personality and honestly I feel simultaneously seen and honestly so attacked rn.
Also the sprites for both boys (in this case I will say aramis wins just because omfg, have you seen that side-eye?) are amazing and I spent most of the game feeling like I really needed a cold shower.
Oh. Right. The VA almost gave me several heart attacks, especially in steamier situations.
ANYWAY. Lived it, loved it, wish there was more ❤️😊
This review is EVERYTHING! ❤️
THANK YOU so much for your kind words, it's kinda overwhelming to hear such praise and love for our little baby. It really means so much, so happy you enjoyed it! 💖
It was really cute and I had fun
but not sure as there's saving issues tho
Hello, thanks for taking the time to play this game!
Could you let me know what type of saving issues you’re having? Thanks!
I don't seem to be able to make a save for this game, though that's the only issue I ran into.
Were you clicking the white frame of the polaroid? I found I wasn’t able to save/load unless you click the date/white lower border/frame of the polaroid - not the picture part, but the white frame (at the bottom).
I ran into the same problem at first to, Saving never worked clicking the inside of the photographs. I eventually figured out its possible to save by clicking the bottom white rectangle of the photographs instead of the picture inside.
this game is lovely, had so much fun playing it!
Thank you so much!
I love the art! Especially both of these guys >3< they were lovely. I like the bgm you insert, its refreshing and the fact that there's also a voice acting yaa~ haven't finish it yet tho
Thank you!! <3
Hello! I play it again because it's my vacation but im stuck at which among them to choose. I mean, both the sprite is kind of dark so im sure i must click between them but no matter what I do. Nothing happens.
hi!! I don't know if you already have, but have you tried installing the latest version? We did have this issue before but worked to resolve it, so hopefully in the latest version it should be fixed <3
Oh, I have the earliest one. Thanks, I'll download the latest ^-^ I really enjoyed the gameplay
loved every single moment in this. i adore both kujo and aramis <3 thank you for making such a wonderful game!!
Aahh that makes my heart so happy to hear!! thank you for your kind words <3
Hi until the screen for chose the boy I can play. But I can't choose one boy, and i have a hard time when I am going save, I can't save with mouse, and just could save using the arrows and enter.
And the game is amazing, I am in love with the art, the story is very nice. but I need suggest for you build classificated in renpy, all you archives are exposed. Maybe this can get you game heavy.
Thanks for amazing game, everyone in team are wonderful, each game part is so pretty. Congrats for amazing game
Hopefully this is fixed now with the new update.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for your suggestion - first time actually handling the publishing, oops!
Thank you again! <3
Were you clicking the white frame of the polaroid? I found I wasn’t able to save/load unless you click the date/white lower border/frame of the polaroid - not the picture part, but the white frame (at the bottom).
No, i did tryed in everyplace. But ritgh now is much better. After update. Thanks for the tip. I already doing the sweet guy route.
i would love to play the game it seem awesome but for some reason it will not let me pick either one of the boys i downloaded it for windows
Yeah it was the same for me can't seem to click or pick any of the two, I thought it ended there.
that happened to me too! it fixed itself when i saved and went back to that screen though
Would anyone mind sending me an email at lunamakaio@outlook.com so I can try sending you a fresh build to see if it fixes the issue? We are having trouble testing it as it worked for all the team before publishing! ;__;
Is it okay to ask for more detail/clarification on some of the stuff on the content warnings page?
absolutely! co-writer here, i can try and help :D feel free to contact us through email/twitter too so that we can share potential spoiler information with you!
Thank you! <3 I'll send an email shortly
