Welp, here we go.
Story
Cute and funny story, I though the characters where lively, and I like that you did the design of the characters white for the NPCs, it's clever and it also saves you on time. Cool stuff.
I didn't understand why Chris/Chrys had beef with the guy at the lunch room (don't remember his name). He seemed like a chill dude, though I suppose Chris/Chrys was just jealous lol.
Minigames
I don't understand why some were having trouble with the minigames. I think they were nice and pretty on point. They "come out of knowhere", but there's a sound for when they do, so I don't feel like you have to have insane reaction time for them. Flipping the wheel for the minigames was a cool addition, and it does fit with the theme as well.
The email minigames were cool too, I like that they speed up after time, it keeps it engaging. They're not too hard to get, and also not easy enough so that they're a breeze, so good job on that! (This is coming from someone whose reaction time is pretty mid)
The typing minigames were fine, a bit too easy perhaps? But I liked that they were there.
Visuals
I liked the artstyle that you used for the characters and also the background. Maybe the only complaint I would have is that we didn't get to see the bayblade battle, so it was kinda just there for me, but other than that, really good stuff! Only complaint here is that maybe the text box should be a bit bigger. I'm a bit blind so maybe that's why lol.
Also, I was a bit confused why his text was white italic when I thought it should've been gray, but then I realized that it was because it was inner dialogue (? Maybe there could be something to improve there, maybe make it more obvious or leave like that, I dunno XD [couldn't include a screenshot because itch io hates me but yeah]
Audio
Nice background music! It was on point and it kinda reminded me of Doki Doki Literature Club. I believe the wheels also had sound effect which is cool, and I liked the sound effect for the text appearing!
Overall Thoughts
I'm really happy to see another visual novel here in the jam! I thought it was really nice, cute, funny with a small amount of NPC interactions, but it made it lively! The sub-plot of the company is a cool way to also include the theme, and yeah. Definitely a great game, and fun to read through :D
