HOLY CRAP! That was just... too much to mention it all!!!

An initial release that is the length of possibly 3 to 4 builds of other VNs!

There are still several grammatical errors, several, but only up to one per line/code of dialogue, fa too many to mention here. That is just how much content you have put into this showing!

I'm hoping for more sprites/characters as you go on (some can be subtle (few or only one sprite) or CG only, such as the initial figure, and the owner of restaurant (at your digression of course if you wish to do so)), as well as more of the minigames with upped difficulty/complexity as the story goes on (especially the card or card related ones, going to be many battles of various sorts ahead!?)

If you can make the next release even half as awesome at least, I'm going to have to pitch in to help you along, I'm that floored!

Glad you enjoy it! ^_^

About the Sprites and CGs:

I'm working on it and might have some good news for you guys, but still need time to figure out all the details . Hopefully I can make the exciting announcement this coming winter.

About the minigames:

Actually I was not quite sure whether it would be a good idea to integrate so much elements in a VN when I initiated the development. I was afraid my readers just wanted to keep their reading experience pure and simple, so I kept all the minigames and crime case in chapter 1 relatively easy and simple to see how it would go. If most of the readers find it really interesting and not hindering their reading, I'm certainly looking forward to adding more varieties. Just want to take it slow and might not be the first priority now.

About the next release:

The whole story and its structure have been drafted, yet I still need time (I mean a lot, sadly) to work out all the details. I feel a good story is essential for a VN thus I can't release anything not up to my standard or it will just be an insult to my readers. My plan is to update the game by chapter and I think in this way it can bring readers a more consistent and smooth experience. I'm looking at a release next spring or so, but it might change according to the progress.

About the typos and grammatical errors:

My apologies. I'm not a native speaker and I did try my best to avoid these. I might really need someone to help me out. The problem is I'm a novice in this field and don't know many people... Anyway, I'll try to find a way to reduce these errors to minimum.

About your help:

Any help will always be appreciated!

The greatest help anyone can do is to read my story :)

~~(And feel free to recommend it to your friends, I'd be more than happy to see more people enjoy my story!)~~

Thanks for your time and kindly comment. Hope I won't fail you, haha~

The biggest failure is in not trying or giving up, however its is fine to give up temporarily (a hiatus) for inspiration can come and go as much as the tide of feelings and emotions.
