Honestly really loved this! Ended up almost crying at the end lol.
Oh wow, thanks for the fun playthrough! Glad you liked it!
The final achievement was tough for getting it. I felt bad for Tonkatsu-ya owner ...
What a loveley game. I had a lot of fun with the back and forth between the hero and the narrator, messed up nearly all the dice rolls, was a desaster on the karaoke stage and got myself a nasty splinter. Next to the fun there is a touching story, interesting characters and well crafted dialogues. All wrapped up in a great atmosphere, chic graphics and a moody soundtrack.
Thank you for that little gem. :-)
Thank you so much, again! Also for the great help with the save system! Your template really helped me set things up properly. :)
So cozy, adorable art style too! I walked through the logic door but I failed the logic choices and got all the empathy choices haha. Not sure they matter at all though
I'm also struggling to see the cursor, sometimes it disappears!
Jeb is so cuteeeeeeeee tho must save him (even if I can't help thinking he looks more like a puppy than an elderly doggo!)
Wow thanks, I'm happy you liked it! Failing the dice rolls is half the fun! :D If it helps, my luck in the rolls is also completely non existent haha. You can't ever get stuck because of them though.
All the best to you!
Just played through this game, and it was a pretty cute experience!
(One thing, though. There's a formatting bug in the scene with Shirley, where the italics marker would show up on one of her texts [like <i>/>, if I recall]
Thank you so much! That formatting bug got caught today by somebody else as well. I'll fix it right away, thanks for letting me know!
You're very welcome!
Cozy game! Very funny dialogue aswell!
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it! :D
