Aughh the music is so GOOD! The visuals and all the new sprites are So Good! The writing is very real and great, except for the pun at the end of Koey's epilogue, which is instead brilliant. It all feels like a big playable cartoon, except this game's approach to plot writing feels very different from any cartoon i've seen. It's, like, PRECISELY half upbeat comedy cartoon, half heavy character conflict. I'm absolutely charmed by this game's writing. Thank you so much for making stuff, because the stuff you make is SO GOOD.

KOEY MY BELOVED

This game's atmosphere is very charming. The music and the dialogue are all pleasant, and the visuals are great. I loved all of it!

Thank YOU for ripping out a lil' part of your soul and putting it in this game and these characters!!

This game has been the most fun i've had with a visual novel in a while. The visuals are colorful and cartoonish, the facial expressions are very juicy. The writing is great! All the characters say "barley" instead of "barely"! Herbivore puns!!
While the backgrounds are sometimes a bit simple, it's never an issue and fits well into the game's cartoonish style.
The characters themselves are very fun to hang out with. In fact, i can say for sure that the most enjoyable and memorable moments of the game for me weren't the ones where the protagonist is stressing out trying to impress a character; instead, just having fun getting up to various friend activities was highly relaxing and entertaining.
Perhaps the one problem i have with the game is how you're tasked with romancing a character basically after just meeting them. Just like in real life, it's stressful, takes effort and requires you to behave how they would like you to behave. And you don't really know how they'd like you to behave, since you barely know them. However, many dating sims are probably like that, so it's rather subjective.
Because i've failed to help many of the characters on my first try, this game made me sad more times than i'd like to admit. However, this game also made me happy many more times than i'd be able to count, and i will forever cherish the time i was allowed to spend with all those troubled, cute dorks. This game left me wanting more, and that's how you know it's good! Literal art right here. holy shit i loved all of it
