Just finished, it was super cute! Kiki is so funny, I'm obsessed with all her expressions, my gosh. Also, Curtis is number one best boy/good boy lol. Though, I'm determined to make Mochi love me!
Even if this is "bare bones" as you said, there's so much care and thought put in it. From the gameplay to the doggos to all of Kiki's adorable clothing (Mochi is wrong, Kiki does have excellent taste in fashion.) I also love the little pieces of Kiki and Satoru mixed in, hmmm I don't know how I would choose between him and Kai aaaaa.
Overall cute, fun start! Definitely excited to see how it plays out <3
