I like this a lot! You’ve set up a very interesting and engaging system, it just needs more time put into it.

I’m really not into any of the kinks displayed here. Like, at all. Most of the time I was pretty squicked.

But the actual story and puzzle-solving was pretty damn engaging.

At some point I knew there was nothing coming that’d leave me satisfied. Just different levels of despair and discontentment. But I still wanted to see it all. I had to know the full shape of it before I could put it down.

(That said, it would’ve been nice to have something in-game to help me track what endings I’ve gotten through, but I just kept notes when I realized there wasn’t.)

SPOILERS BELOW:

The only thing that really frustrated me was the Mahjong sequence. The questions are opaque enough to someone who doesn’t know the game that I had no idea what was even being asked most of the time, even after doing some research to try to wrap my head around it. Hell, I still don’t know why most of the right answers were right. …It didn’t help that it led to what I found the least satisfying ending. Though I guess the irony of getting the least satisfaction out of outright “defeating” the villain is pretty exquisite.

…how fucking dare you make this so touching and heart-wrenching. WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!

I got curbstomped by the third boss…and my autosave saved on the game over screen.

I can’t trigger either merchant spot on the third map.

I…kinda have no idea how to do anything? I can pick up the bottles by click dragging…and then……nothin

No worries at all! I’m a career software QA, so I know quite well how long it can be between a bug being logged and a fix being implemented. :P

Getting a few bugs-

1. On the main screen, nsfw isn’t clickable when I’m in full screen. If I go full screen, or tab to it and press space, I can select it.

2. If I put my laptop on my shelf and then retrieve it, it’s no longer a laptop. It now reads as “$shelftype[_i] x 1” and picking it up doesn’t fix it or give me laptop functionality.

3. When I attend the orientation ceremony, my Happiness drops to nothing and freezes there. If I turn on Cheat mode, both Happiness and Depression show as [NaN] and can’t be changed.
