yo! hope ya'll are doin' well! i ran through most of runan's route (runan my beloved) and found a good chunk of dialogue errors. most of them aren't bad -- in fact, a lot of them were more suggestions than actual mistakes. i've listed those mistakes below, but i didn't want to flood the devlogs with them. but i can send em' in reply here if you'd like them!

formatting:
* Day # -- "LINE IN QUESTION" // CHANGE NEEDED (+ extra commentary)
*** note: MC = main character

* Day 8 (all?) -- "When you decided" // decided --> decide (stay in the present, never dwell on the past!)
* Day 8 -- "He needs pick them up soon because..." // needs --> needs to
* Day 8, (all?) -- "Why did you chose me to be the first?" // chose --> choose
* Day 8, (all?) -- "I shook my awake trying to ground myself back to the present." // my --> myself (i now have a pet "awake!" he's a cute lil' guy, but very sleepy!)
* Day 8 -- "Runan was already there waiting for me there too" // cut the ending "there too" (runan's so patient he can double wait!)
* Day 8 -- "Then I didn't made you wait!" // made --> make
* Day 8 -- "I said, Are you single?!" // Are --> are (capitalization error)
* Day 8 (all?) -- "I didn't ate lunch at all so I was extremely hungry." // ate --> eat
* Day 9 -- "You looked too focus so I didn't want to be rude." // focus --> focused
* Day 9, -- "... as the knife just slides accorss the fish," // accorss --> across (accorss sounds like a shitty business name)
* Day 9 -- "Runan grabbed the towel and wiped the towel clean again."//  assuming second "towel" should be "knife" (maybe runan owns a self-cleaning towel! that would be cool)
* Day 9 -- "He looks like is looking for something underneath." // like is --> like he is
* Day 9 -- "Now you're just feeding him fish when you barely even eat yourself!" // you barely even eat --> you barely have eaten (runan so hungry he's eating himself -- and not the kinky way...)
* Day 9 -- "MC, You should go." // You --> you (capitalization error)
* Day 10 -- "As you have already know, we are not able..." // cut "have"
* Day 11 -- "I know we are a bit struggling because of the trading issues," // a bit struggling --> struggling a bit (the verb "struggling" precedes the modifying "a bit")
* Day 11 -- "... but did you know the wish Jam was actually his idea?" // wish Jam --> Wish Jam (capitalization error)
* Day 11 -- "I specifically avoided that topic because I want to focus on something else" // want --> wanted (runan is remembering something he did, so this should be past tense. btw, i like how the music fades here, matching runan's thought process of the MC's manipulation)
* Day 11 -- "Just! leave!" // leave --> Leave (capitalization. btw this is a power line, i can feel the MC's anger towards nasher here)

this is where i ended off. one final thing, i was curious if the game's music is available somewhere? that's all! thanks for making this game. the effort shows in its writing, art, and attention to detail, and i can't wait to explore the other routes!

This is very insightful! As someone whose main language isnt English, we would need all the help we can get. And to be honest, after a while, some words start to blur so these corrections are huge. Thanks!

We will implement these on the next update.

Edit: For the music, you can find the artists on on the credits to see their work. But we are working on something custom that we will be uploading in the future.

honestly, i know people who's only language is english and yet are quite... lacking, let's say. for a non-native speaker and a game in development, the writing is holding up just fine.

anyways, i got through runan (my beloved) and have compiled my findings in a google doc, which you can get to here. if you have trouble navigating the document, let me know! i'll update it whenever i get to the other (ridge is up next!) routes as well as backtrack to days 1-6. as a key thing, a lot of my comments are very nitpicky -- if a change doesn't make sense or does not fit the story, ignore it! i won't be hurt :)

again, i love the story and art in this game. perhaps i should get into monster hunter, but that's another time. you've got something awesome here and i'm excited for what you have cooking!

This is awesome! I'll be sure to refer to your document whenever I am doing some debugging and grammar updates so that it would be polished before the next update. Thanks again for your support and help!
