Let people know how long you've been working on the game
This was initially just a playground for myself, because I was working on other games and on university assignments. When I realized how much work I already invested in the artwork and shaders and the like, I could not bring myself to just leave it there, though.
So, in essence I'd say, two to three months on and off.

Funny story about a Kaffepause. I enjoyed the small collectibles and different outcomes depending on the actions you take. :)

I loooove the artwork and the atmosphere in this game!  The odd animations and subtle humor and strangeness was great and helped create a really awesome unique vibe in this game.  A really cool, short, fun experience -excellent work! :D

This was a really nice game to play! I love how even though it's short, so much is conveyed in the few minutes you play. Beautiful artwork, interesting story that's conveyed in an appealing way, neat little mechanics. I especially liked how you made it seem like each playthrough was a continuation of the one before. Very well done!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it that much!

I'm not much of a visual novel fan so this was the perfect small size for me. I ended up playing through about six times to see the differences and to experiment and just because it's a wonderful little slice-of-life capsule world. I love the art style, and the music and audio design are great too. I actually got out my headphones so I could listen to it properly. I would really like to play more if you do continue this project. (Also, being a writer I noticed the subtle double entendres and subtext!) Well done!

I’m so glad you enjoyed it even though it’s a VN. :D I’m not a big fan of VNs either but sometimes the general approach is very useful for a concept. I’m very happy it’s so enjoyable even though it’s an experiment - and that the writing worked out, too. Double entendres aren’t easy in another language, haha c:

Really lovely art piece. Reading the comment, I'm glad you did something with it - it definitely would have been a shame to let this go to waste.

The art and music for this is so beautiful and works so well together, I felt thoroughly relaxed after playing and would love to spend more time within the world if you were to develop it further. The changes to the dialogue on the second playthrough was a really nice touch too, and I always love cute ghosts :)

Ahh, so many people said this already, I’m actually starting to think about continue working on this… Thank you so much! Without the composer it wouldn’t work as well though! The music is perfectly relaxing.

Would love to see a longer story build out with this art style it is a very relaxing game!

Well, maybe I’ll continue on this! It was very fun to do and I’m happy about the results of this prototype - thank you for playing it!
