Tried to end the dialogue, resulted in chugging another cup of water to pee myself.

10/10

Developer

dang who knew! Glad there's a way to skip dialogue - it's a feature not a bug 😉

This was super fun, such a nice little point-and-click with crawler mechanics. Played it to the end, it was quite funny and endearing. Good job!

Developer

glad to hear it! Thanks for playing

That was a very funny game. Not a classic dungeon crawler and more like a story driven adventure but thats a nice change of pace. I liked the writing and the humor was great too. Peeking into other people's mails was great. I laughed quite a bit playing it. In the end I of course chose to become a great anime artist, because who wouldn't? :D


I had a lot of fun with this small but nice game. :)

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for playing!

All my dreams came true. Although the gameplay is limited to a few point and click interactions what's there works fine, controls and movement are good, the place looks rigthfully boring, the texts are funny and the story tackles with the theme. Good job, thanks for sharing.

I managed to take a trick-shot piss from outside of the bathroom and get back to the door without speaking to Kokoro, but the janitor still beat me to it. My next speedrun idea was to drink 42,949,673 cups of water and literally overflow my bladder but I gave up after 26. Had fun anyway, it's a nice point and click.

Developer

I will make future games more speedrunner friendly ;D 
thanks for playing!

I enjoyed playing this to the end. It was a little bit short but what was there was good. The writing was funny and had me laughing out loud here.

Well done :)

Great game, funny dialogue too! just wished the text was a bit faster!

Developer(+1)

Thank you - yes I think giving players more control over how fast or slow they read the text would be a good feature

Wow! This is a fantastic entry. I really enjoyed the dialog and graphics. The game was also quite intuitive. Loved the use of the theme as well!

Great work!

Developer

Thank you for your kind words!

Really nice graphics! I wish the text could be forwarded more quickly.

Developer

Thanks! I will take this into consideration going forward, its a much requested feature!

its a good game, nice visuals and simple sound work taht works well here, and the idea of a duality between the mind and the heart is a great idea, I also like the story as well.. however I got stuck at a certian part , so my monkey brain wasnt able to finish it, overall good game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! which part were you stuck on?

Submitted

Apparantly about a soul being in a toilet? after that I could not tell what to do next.

Developer

ahh... sweet I know the part. A friend i showed it to was stuck here too. I feel like it's lame to just give out the solution but it has to do with the gum! Perhaps I ought to consider a hints system in future

Great dialogues and writing! I like the graphic very much and point and click elements. I only wish there would be fullscreen mode for this.

Developer

glad you had fun - I'll take a look at adding the full screen in
