Overall a good game, but I am SO annoyed that the mc's moral hangups override ANY decisions you make. >_>
Maybe this says more about the place I grew up than anything, but seriously?!
She's not 11! Why can't she go all the way with him?! It makes NO sense!
(I mean, maybe drag him away from her uncle and pretend nothing happened IF that old man is a bit prudish, but it's not like anyone punish the underage person anyway, if that's what she worries about.
And in either case all she has to do is deny it and no one gets punished.... in the unlikely case -anyone- reports it.
And even then the cops have bigger crimes to worry about and would at most send the older guy a bill to pay a fine, and that's about it.
...incidentally I know someone that happened to cuz her mom went ballistic over it when she was 13 he was, like...25? I think. The guy got a small fine and that was it.)
The game itself was fun tho.
Played this last night and I am so SO happy to see such a cute, scruffy man love interest ;_; he's too ridiculously adorable! The writing and art are both fantastic!! I'm glad I stumbled upon this omfg
Jacob was carefully crafted to be 100% husband material 😏
blue skadoo-ing into your universe just to lovingly sigh at him from afar ..
I have only just started this game up (will continue tomorrow) but I just HAD to come on to rave about your gorgeous art style!! It's a wonderful mix between anime and cartoon and is super unique and recognizable!! <333 I look forward to seeing what comes next in the future from you! :)
Thank you! 🩷 We are comics artists and I'm glad it shows through the drawings!
(you can follow us on Twitter and IG if you like – links are at the end of the game description – and we also have a website 🥰)
OH MY GOD. It started very funny and cute but when Jacob got drunk.......... I'm on fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The bonus scene got me very flustered >////////////////////< awesome game! great art! thank you so much!
Thank YOU for this comment! ❤️❤️❤️ Glad you had a blast!
Do you have any tips on how to reach ending 4 and 5? I have been trying to figure it out by myself for the past couple of hours (Including Ending 1,2 and 3) and I still can't. 😭
By the way, I love the game so far! Really cute art style and great humour (I can't help but cackle every second I'm playing this game ) Looking forward to future updates of these two cuties ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧.
Hi there! I'm glad you're finding the game humorous, because I wrote the script with that precise intent. I love funny stories!
As for your question, my tip for reaching endings 4 and 5 is: choose the options which would make Jacob panick more! 😈
Did you ever end up getting ending 4 and 5? I have been trying and I haven't been able to find them :(
I love the game so far and I really want to find all of the endings!
Exceptionally cute and funny, with a delightful whiff of spice on the top ❤️
Even though this was supposed to be a small spin-off, it made me really curious about the complete main story! Can't wait to discover how Monica and Jacob met and what (dis?)adventures they'll go through ✨
If you liked that, I achieved my purpose >:)
To be honest, I don't usually play these things and I don't really think I can consider myself a fan of VNs, however, I find it a pretty interesting game. It is visually beautiful and very well adapted, plus I found the story cute and entertaining. I think I'll be able to appreciate the relationship between Monica and Jacob a little better as their story progresses further, since at this point I still don't know much about them. Congratulations on achieving this goal!♥♥♥
Thank you Lili! This was an important milestone for us and I'm happy we managed without giving up. Now we're going to achieve even bigger things and I feel confident we can pull them off.
Thank you for your constant support through the years 💛💛💛
Big congrats on the release!! 💖
Thank you Cre!
