That was a lot to process, but I overall had a good time. Using Kokoro's emotions to frame the story was a really bold choice, and it was nice how she was able to grow so much in likeability. I enjoyed most of the chapters, and the choices in them actually felt like they mattered, which I appreciated. However, I do wish some things were paced more evenly. The second chapter is far longer than the rest, which made it feel a bit dissatisfying to finally finish. The ending build-up was really nice, but I also wish there was a bit more to the one I got. Pacing aside however, I was impressed by most of the character work, and the music and art were both incredible. Good job.

Thank you for the compliments and the feedback! With several different writers, pacing was a concern, but we hope that the stories themselves were worthy of being experienced (or re-experienced) regardless of the difficulties. We're considering a way to maybe help fix pacing and other issues in a QOL patch post-jam. Glad to see your impressions are mostly positive, even despite it all!
