HELLO THIS DEMO HAD NO RIGHT TO END ON SUCH A CLIFFHANGER AAAAHHHHHHH
This demo was A-DO-RA-BLE, despite starting with a CG which is actually NOT adorable loool
I think a huge highlight is the cast. Call me shallow, but I appreciated how PRETTY everyone was (I promise I'll talk about the writing), but geez, Ladymeowsith's artstyle is always so pretty dffdf; the character design was great too!! I do love Addison's round and adorable face, it really makes them approachable (in both their masculine and feminine-presenting designs), the love interests (Warren and Mack) were gorgeous, Micah is a smol boy I want to carry and Isaias is SO PRETTY DFVFGBF (give me a blond and I'm out there loool); the BG art was very neat too, and I really loved how pretty the GUI was! I also think the way the music was used in this game was very effective and natural, especially when it comes to setting the mood of the scenes.
The story so far is so interesting!!! I did love the character-writing! Addison is a very positive protag, that they had wholesome interactions with everyone, the friendly banter between Warren and Isaias was very neat at it helped deconstructing his "intimidating" character, and Warren's interactions with Micah kind of gave him interesting volumes and layers as a character. I also adored spending time with Mack, he is so chill and was a nice, comforting contrast to Addison (to whom I could relate lol, I'm also obnoxious when it comes to being on-time, I'm never late loool).
Now, I'll give some more spoilery feedback, so beware reader, and play the cute demo with handsome boys before reading it, this game will make your heart fluffy.
If I appreciated how positive Addison was, the game makes something clear: this is a façade of perfection, an act they perform to get people to like them. However, something grimmer is happening behind the scene, and I kinda suspect it to be supernatural?? Something the game highlighted well and even showed thanks to Micah, Warren and Mack is that everyone loves Addie: even our frightening not-boss is jealous of our co-worker because he wants to spend time with us, when we only spend one meeting together! So I wonder if Addie's secret isn't about something that makes people love them, and that they need, to prove themself worthy of this love they receive, to be act as perfectly as possible. So, this is my theory/guess so far lol, but I'm excited to find out what the final answer will be!
Congrats on releasing this great demo and for making it under a month!! I had a lot of fun playing it, and I am looking forward to the rest!!!
P.-S.: please please tell me Isaias is the secret love interest, he's a Greek God I swear he is so pretty oh my god
EDIT: remembered the tweet mentioning Isais isn't datable... micah is great don't get me wrong but now I'll be MOURNING
