I loved the game! It was really nice but it did made me tear up a bit at the part where Aoi walked out, I thought I made bad choices and ended up getting a bad ending but glad all ends well hehe

Thank you so much for the kind words! We're glad you enjoyed the game.

Aoi's sudden departure sure does get you out of blue, doesn't it?

Esse jogo é adorável, e também muito engraçado em alguns momentos, eu adoro ver jogos com devs brasileiros :)

Ficamos muito felizes de saber que tenha gostado do jogo! E ficamos ainda mais felizes em saber de bastante brasileiro jogando o jogo também!!

Just finished the game, and it exceeded my expectations for a few reasons:

  • I'm not into Visual Novels;
  • I'm not into yaoi;
  •  Damn, I'm not even into romance.

But the thing is, it was a solid experience and way more entertaining than I expected it to be.  The things that kept happening to Akihiko were just getting crazier and by day 4 I felt like I was going insane with him, which is something good, it means the game managed to surprise me. The only thing that did bother me a little was that I saw the ending coming from miles away, but it felt satisfying anyways. Other than that, there are just a few points I'd like to address:

  • Tsuki needs some therapy (or maybe every character in this game does);
  • For someone like me the length of the game is just on point, I don't know if I would've beaten it if it was any longer;
  • The Portuguese version has a couple of typos that need correction.

All and all, good game.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for playing the game! Knowing that the game can even impact those who are not fond of the genre itself leaves us so happy!

Solid Visual Novel with a lovable cast and an interesting plot, excellent work done all around, from the character design, to the backgrounds, music, character banter, all really good. I also loved the fact that there is a bunch of choices to make and a nice amount of cute CG's

Tsuki and Carlos are the best.

Although the game has a lot, and I mean A LOT of funny moments I felt eventually it started dragging just a little bit repeating the same formula, I feel it could have been more concise but nothing too bad really, I feel it boils down to my own personal preference and the fact that I was reading out loud, there was a moment I was done with reading but I really wanted to know what happened next, you may say I didn't give up on me...

I feel I am a little outside the age range that this game was intended for but I still enjoyed it a lot. Keep the good work!
