As a big fan of visual novels, I really checked out the idea of playing as a secondary character who can influence the main course of the narrative. It's a great visual novel

Super cute game! Impressed by the visuals and the dialogue written, the characters feel relatable even though we only spend a few minutes with them
Really cuuuuuute game!!! Great work in story telling too! It's very nice!
I love this. The art style is amazing, Rei is adorably awkward, and the whole thing is cute as heck. If I had to choose one thing to nitpick, it would be there isn't an easy way to see all the content without having to mash E through all the dialog you've already seen (i.e. there's no equivalent to RenPy's auto). That being said, this game is just too cute for me to really be bothered by seeing more of it. Great job.
I'm so glad I got to play as the dog!! It is SO polished, the story is nice, and I like how we get to interact with the environment. Awesome game, and the art style is gorgeous. Congrats!
That's so sweet and polished!
I love how well you explained the controls during the gameplay, it really help, and I didn't feel lost once thanks to that. The art is so cute (love the small bird on the fence) and the story really nice too!
I really love this one, well done!
This was a great little game, nice use of the theme. Really nice art and cool idea :)
The art is pretty and the game is polished. Kinda funny. I enjoyed playing through it.
Visual novel type stuff doesn't feel that interesting for a game jam though. And having multiple endings where you have to replay to see them feels kind of disrespectful to players time considering how many submissions there are yknow.
Still, I rate this one cringe conversation/10
The art and characters were extremely cute and appealing, on top of that everything is really polished. Really solid submission for just 48 hours. Would love to see this turned into a full game!
damn this is top tier art, I’m actually jealous someone is able to create such beautiful art for a game, I always struggle to find pre-existing art that fits my needs.
About gameplay, I’m not a big fan of visual novels, but I can appreciate the atmosphere you created. The mini games are super sweet, you can really see this game is very well crafted. Congrats!
The art is really great, overall it was a really cute game, love the quirky characters
The art is really good and cute, it's just a really chill and wholesome game, done well too! Great work!
A very complete, pretty and enjoyable experience for just two days of development. The presentation and character designs are the best I've seen in the jam. If ever you find yourself in need of a composer, I'm at your disposal.
The art style is very good. I love your take on the reversed role!
A completely charming little game. This is definitely a highlight for me. Artistically beautiful, lovely writing, amazing take on the theme. You did so well and I have no suggestions or anything. I just want the full game available straight away as I can 100% see myself playing through in a whole sitting and then not knowing what to do with myself afterwards. Beautiful and amazing!!! Well done!!!
