WOW. I cannot even describe to you how much this game spoke to me.
As soon as I started up the tutorial, I knew this was my type of game, but I had no clue it would be THIS good. I loved everything about it! I would love to talk about about a few aspects of the game here. I love making a good review for a great game! No spoilers don't worry!
The wholesome romantic feel was perfect for me. I really enjoy a good romance visual novel (Not gonna call it a dating sim), and it was really refreshing to finally find a game filled with passion put into the story of the characters in it rather than create appeal via nudity or something stupid like that. Games which pull at the heartstrings are 10x better in my opinion, and you've done a superb job with that. I genuinely felt so happy that I cried, laughed my back off, and put my hand up to my mouth in worry throughout the way amazing sequences during the demo, and I am so excited that the game is coming out soon so that I can continue playing it!
I loved the art design of the special screens a LOT here. The exact style I game for when choosing a game. (Search 'No More Future', or 'Under the Bridge' for reference on this.) I love the pause menu art a lot, and I love Syd's appearance too. He's so relatable, and his green sweater is killer awesome. Get me one of those! It's a shame that the main sprites of the characters don't have that art, but I like it the way it is to be fair. It would make for a legendary update though. Having an option to switch between the old and 'new' art in the preferences menu would be the coolest thing ever.
The music. Where do I start?! It's amazing! I love the style. The emotional tracks compared to the fun tracks compared to the tracks that make my heart beat. Ugh! So freaking good. I will be so happy if there is more in the full game.
The social events were done very well in my opinion. I experimented around with them a little bit, and the vastly different ways things could play out really is awesome. It also makes me feel excited! The challenge aspect is great! If you don't like you're result, you can go back to an old save and try again, or rectify it later. Either is right! Free time too! Well done.
Finally, I love how you handled the tutorials. They're so fun and made me smile.
To conclude, this game is so refreshing for me, and it made me feel truly happy playing it. I hope and plea that other people will have the chance to experience this masterpiece of a game when it comes out. I am so excited for the full release! I will be staying in touch with the progress of the game! Thank you for your time, and thank you for creating this work of art!
