It took some time, but this game really grew on me! I think there was room for improvement, sure, but I enjoyed this game quite a bit. Good experience!

I think I most enjoyed the theming - I felt compelled to use the included arcade cabinet guide right after I finished my first playthrough. The setting of an arcade and the effort put into showing all the different aspects of arcade life was great!

The characters and story were enjoyable enough. A bit shallow in spots, but fun enough.

One area that probably could've used some polish is the personality system. It feels fun, but perhaps a bit half-baked. To a lesser extent, more effort could perhaps be put into the relationship system at-large, though it generally was fine. Relationships felt a bit un-earned, but it's probably OK. I'd say the main shortcoming is actually the asexual ending, which feels oddly lonely for the 'friendship' route. Still, I appreciate the options available for players uninterested in the romances.
