Hello! This is super kind of you to say! Thank you <3 I very much appreciate it :3
Also, yes the real life cat picture in game is my actual cat. She's super sweet and sometimes a little diva, but I love her that way. Besides that, I really wanted players to feel like the MC is them personally, so I try to be inclusive as much as possible with being able to name themselves, and have pronoun options. I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the game!
I originally did wanted to add a character custom design (basically letting players dress as themselves) but I'm still learning how to code it...maybe one day I'll figure it out T-T
