Please note, this was initially a game jam game, made for the swak jam. I updated it to round it out but it's still pretty short. 

Future updates will be to add additional art/ fix spelling and grammar mistakes of which I am sure there are many, if you catch a mistake you can let me know.


Enjoy ^-^

Hello! I came across your game and really liked its concept! I’m aspiring to become a video game localizer, but I need to gain hands-on experience. So here’s my proposal: I’d love to collaborate by translating your game into Russian. Since I’m new to game localization specifically, I’m happy to do this for free to build my portfolio. What do you think? If you are interested you can contact me. Discord: @valera._.

THIS WAS SO FUN AND PERFECT I WAS LOOKING FOR A SHORT GAME  love nox and MC btw!

(+1)

what a banger!! the art style and the fashion go so well together. I also enjoy the additional care in making the UI for the chat app and the outfit changes and being able to interact w stuff in ur room.

(+2)

This is so cutee!! Nox is just a charming character, and I love the way the story plays out. 9/10!!

dont click on it guys!!

Absolutely adorable. Perfect for when you need a quick, pick me up. Great job! <3

(1 edit) (+1)

This is such a cute little story! The arts also pretty good and I adore the cloths. The story is cute and simple and is great for a quick sit down and play-through. 

(+2)

i just want to drop in and say that the vibes of this game is immaculate!! i love the music, the customization of the MC (which is a feature i'm coming to appreciate in OELVNs), the art, and even lennox was endearing <3 it's upbeat and it carries its positive tone well. you did a great job here!! if you ever make more VNs (or games in general), i look forward to checking them out :3 thank you so much for sharing this with us!!

also, for those looking for the amount of routes/endings possible, i don't know if i have all of them already but from my last runthrough, i was able to get three different endings.

Wont let me open file for android .

(+1)

This game was fun I wish it was longer

(+1)

hey guys really quickly before i download it-- does this have multiple character routes, or just one? if multiple, how many

Just one unfortunately

(+1)

a very idyllic game! you can tell there was a lot of love poured into it and playing was a nice, cozy experience. i actually got that 'alone' ending at first and i liked how optimistic it was in spite of the situation. the artstyle also really fits the vibe i think the game was going for so i enjoyed that too.

(+1)

love the game it is so cute 

(+1)(-1)

This game is so cute!! I loved every second of it!! It definitely reminds me of a date with death!! I really hope in the future there might be a route with Elis!! He seems so sweet!! There’s a few spelling errors but personally i love them it’s like hunting for Easter eggs makes the game that much more better!! The only downside-ish to it is that theres not very many customization options (went in thinking i could change the hair color and clothes -i could not-) but other than that its pretty good!! I also agree that there should def be a male/gender neutral option in-game but that’s just an opinion :]

(+1)

I love this game. The art style, the character customization options, I just was disappointed it was so short. It would be fantastic as a full length dating sim with multiple love interests (especially the purple girl or maybe even Elis. I personally like when I can pursue multiple love interests at the same time). The setting is really cool and I wish there were more opportunities to explore it. Anyway, if you ever decide to do a long version I would definitely be here for it.

(+1)

Pretty good story!!!

(+1)

Please don't fight in the comments, thank you ~

Hi, sorry, got to invested and shouldn't have brought it into your comment section (It's a pet peeve of mine obviously 💀). It's a great game and I hope you create many more in the future!! 

I can delete the comments if you'd like 💞 

(+2)

Ah no worries! You two are fine, I had to delete a few comments that were just insults

(+2)(-1)

Ah alright ^^ that sucks tho, hate people that don't give feedback and just insult work. You clearly worked really hard on this so ignore them <3

(+2)

If it was just insulting the game that would be fine, the comments I'm worried about is people throwing insults at commenters. I think we breached containment for a bit there but it should be fine now

(1 edit) (+1)

Hi sorry for the disturbance in your comment section too if yk ,yk 😅 but if u would like i could delete my lengthy comments  but err anways cute game tho :)

Haha no worries, I don't have an issue as long as folks don't start swearing or name calling

(+1)

alright but anways cute game tho <3

(+1)

I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF THIS SWEET SWEET GAME<3

(+4)(-2)

WHY CAN I ONLY PLAY AS A GIRL WHYYYYYY

(+7)(-10)

PLEASE add a male option

(+14)(-7)

Why does everything need a male option lol .bl dont got a female option rite?

(+6)(-5)

Because it's inclusive? BL doesn't have female options because it's literally called Boys' Love. The original characters made for it are gay or discovering their sexuality. If you made the MC female, it would take away from the story being told, whereas here, it's not important to the story what gender you are, so giving a male option would make more people comfortable while playing.

(1 edit) (+13)

Its tagged female Protagonist for a reason lol I mean i can't speak for the creator but some creator just want to make game targeted to female so it is what it is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(+3)(-8)

Yeah but it very easily could be viewed from a male POV, if you want to go into game design you should really think about ALL the people who want to play your game, now there's a whole demographic that can't enjoy this game and it also means less downloads for the game. Honestly I don't care if people want to tag their game as female protagonist that's fine, I just think it's more enjoyable if you let more people feel represented especially if you have people in the comments begging for it. 

But making the link that BL doesn't have female protagonists was just stupid. There's tones of straight media and very limited LGBTQ+ media.

There's nothing wrong with asking for more pronoun options, just shows people enjoy/are interested in the game, plus it's fun making more customisation options as it allows you to continue expanding on a game.

(+14)(-2)

Creators who  makes  bl game. Their target audience are  male audience and nothing wrong abt that like its totally okay  Just like if some creators wants to create games targeted to female audience .Like idk why u kinda pressed abt creators wanting to create games for whichever targeted audience they want like  i don't see ppl in the comment of bl games saying please make female option right? Or pls make this inclusive because bl creators can indeed make and option for female or male mc but then some prefer to stick with male mc only and that's totally fine creators can have their preference cause it is their game

awee this was such cute and short vn!! thank you it was a pleasant experience 

Thank you ^-^

(+4)(-3)

A cute but very short game, and a whole lot of spelling mistakes that need to be corrected.

(+3)(-6)

Respectfully this is a free game and your complaining 

(+4)

Asking for spelling mistake corrections isn't complaining it's constructive criticism xD I'm sure OP appreciates people telling them how to improve instead of Yas Queening them and letting them make the same mistakes in their next endeavor.

(+2)(-1)

Thank you!

Personally i feel like having spelling mistakes in anything makes it seem unprofessional, or maybe im just old lol

(+3)

Respectfully, it's "you're" not "your". very different.

(+3)

the art style was lovely! however, the storyline and grammar aren't the best. still worth playing :D

(+2)

the art style, the music, EVERYTHING about this game was perfect!! short but ever so sweet <3
