I was completely lost in this game, and I played it for several hours yesterday. Resorted to walkthroughs and still I felt stuck in a loop despite following all the advice offered. And there's a LOT.
Not saying it's bad. It just didn't click with me. Progression felt random because there was a pattern to it I could not discern.
Normally I play these and follow up with a contribution on Patreon. I do this even with games that I did not like. But this was different. I felt like the game was inaccessible to me. Day after day, short-short days, on a loop with only occasional events here and there, and actions I was told to take in the little notebook that I never could, such as showering with Rae despite maxxing out my stats with her.
It's as if there's some code to this game I never grasped.
Not saying this to condemn the game. I only offer this as feedback. I *wanted* to play it and *wanted* to like it.
