Really funky art style that I love :D It was a joy to meet each new character, and the story was fun to read through. I played it last night so I can't remember the exact quote but there was a line in there to do with D&D that made me laugh, haha. 

Also, it's awesome that you guys are family working together! I wish my brother would work with me cos he loves video games, but instead, he kinda just mocks me for making VNs cos he doesn't think they're proper games >.<

Thank you for playing our game. My brother is the one who knows programming, I'm just the artist.  Glad you found the D&D script for Dina (Nerdy Girl) funny. My brother thought of that on the fly. Just keep being inspired and keep creating VNs to the best of your ability.

The script could have used a bit of editing, but the art is impressive. It's all very clean and has a ton of personality.

I didn't have any issue with false malware positives.

Thank you for the feedback. We didn't have time to proofread as we were crunching in the last minute before the deadline.

Exposition needs some work; the only character that I could root for was killed off in the first three minutes. The cartoon style is nice.

Also, I neglected to unzip the folder, so now Norton AntiVirus is blowing up with Malware notifications. I'm not sure that this is supposed to happen with projects created in Unity.

I appreciate the feedback,  I do agree with you with the exposition, due to the time constraint of the game jam, we had to make some sacrifices to finish the story asap. As for the malware issue, sincere apologies on that, unsure why that is so. We had other people download our game and they didn't experience that issue, but thank you for appreciating my art style.
