This game was very sweet, and I am considering playing again just to really dive back into the story again for my own enjoyment. Thank you for such an amazing game.
I just played this again after some years now (I actually went to RPGMaker.net where I originally found it and thought it was lost when I couldn't find it there until I found it again here largely by mistake). It was truly a delight to play it again.
I had never even known about the secret route until I read the guide, and it was a delight to get it this time. Additionally, while getting it, I noticed just how many lines there are for calling Irene on the communicator, which was fantastic (seriously, even for little ones like before vs. after getting the alokite to put in the battery-making device).
... also, I literally always thought alokite was spelled alkolite and it's funny to me that I've been wrong about that for literally years.
Anyways, it was a delight to play it again, I look forward to anything else you make in the future.
Thank you so much for coming back to my game! It really does make me so happy to read comments like this. I'm glad it left enough of an impression that anyone would seek it out again. <3
I played this game a few years ago and seeing it again brought back all the good memories that came with it<3 I replayed it and it hit even harder than before, I truly love this game with my whole heart and maybe if you feel like it would you be willing to do a little spin-off with just the boys and their little adventures? It doesn't have to be long, even just a couple minutes would make my heart happy ♥
I'm so sorry for the extraordinarily late reply, and thank you so much for playing my little game! TBH I have been feeling so creatively burnt out lately, and I wonder if revisiting these boys might help. I will definitely consider your request, because I did have a blast making Four Eyes. :)
Came back years later and found that I didn't comment???
This game is really fun, really. I first downloaded it thinking it'd be like the random RM games, short and simple with easy puzzles- but I happily found that I was wrong. This is a perfect combination of puzzle and romance (by this I mean perfect puzzles and perfect romance), I've been looking for something like this for years. Like, interesting puzzles and yaoi, even a teeny bit of BL content will do, or a BL game with however easy puzzles. But this game? It truly has far exceeded my expectations. Great work, I have to say.
(ps: can you tell me which one of RPG Maker did you use to make this game? cuz I really want to translate your game into Chinese, but I only have RMMV at hand.)
You're so sweet to come back and leave this comment! Thank you so so much! <3 The game was developed in RPG Maker VX Ace. By all means, feel free to translate it into Chinese! I'm flattered that you want to.
Thanks for answering xD I just really love your game. I'll download VX Ace then...guess it can't be too different from MV, haha. And thanks for letting me translate it! In that case, could you give me your Email? I'll send you a website to send the game files to me...the thing that Chinese can't use google drive (and many other things :( ) is always a pain.
Fantastic game! Cheesy in a good way, and far more comprehensive than I thought it'd be with some decent little puzzles. It was the perfect length, and I enjoyed the main ending! Going to get the secret when I have a chance (now that I've looked at the guide and know I can play it in fullscreen). The characters grew on me fast, too! Very wholesome all around. Low-stress. Interesting worldbuilding. Thank you for creating and sharing this!
I really enjoyed it! I love how the characters are written. They are very likeable and play off of each other very well. Lovely bust art and map design as well. The game took me about 2 hours to complete and it was a wholesome enjoyable adventure. The story progresses the relationship of the protagonists in a nicely paced manner and you cannot help but root for them by the end. Thank you for making this lovely game. :)
I at first downloaded this for free because I'm stingy, but after playing through the main story, I found myself really enjoying it! The game made me chuckle on parts, and the story was so damn heartwarming. The length of the game, while rather short, was still a pretty reasonable length I think. The puzzles weren't so challenging that they were all impossible, but whenever I would solve a puzzle by myself I would feel quite proud. But with that said, the guide was definitely a good addition because there were still some puzzles that I had no idea how to solve. I ended up deleting the game from my computer and buying it this time because I really don't think it deserves to be downloaded for free.
Now all I have left to do is go through the secret route and see what happens!
I ended up doing a Let's Play of this at the prompting of another friend. Really enjoy this story and this world that you created. I feel like it's hard to find LGBT RPGmaker games, so it's always awesome when something like this comes along. Even if I'm like, four years too late lol
If I had to sum up my reaction to this game, it would probably be keyboard smashing, which I will spare you from. This was great!! The characters are all interesting and unique, and the humor was delightful.
Thanks so much for playing, and I'm so happy you're enjoying it so far! I'll watch your LP soon -- I find it really fun to see how folks react to my games. :)
AHHHHH!!! THIS IS SO CUTE! I love it, love it, love it! Your shading style is really beautiful, and I think you captured their dynamic perfectly!!! <3 Thank you for your gorgeous work!
Gorgeous game!! Space and aliens really butter my biscuits. I watched a good friend of mine play this a while back and I decided to replay it a couple of hours ago by myself, and I've realised how enchanting the music when Toa and Jett look up at the stars together is (the scenery of the night sky is also wonderfully magical, might I add). So I was wondering, is there anywhere I could listen to the soundtrack?
Adorably entertaining game. I'm looking forward to more of your stuff!
This comment is so sweet!!! Thank you so much for playing and I'm really glad you enjoyed it so much! That brings a smile to my face. <3
That scene was my absolute favourite to write, so I'm happy to hear it made an impact on you. I made those stars myself in Photoshop, so thanks!! I didn't compose the OST, so I don't think I can legally reupload it anywhere, but the track is called Dreaming in Blue by Quigon if you'd like to search for it yourself.
Excellent, thank you!! (Sorry for the late response!) I will certainly scour the internet for it.
Also you are very welcome! Certainly, you have a lot of talent. Reading your reply warmed my heart a bit, haha! A lot of games aren't achieving their full potential because the creators are more concerned with money, so I can very much appreciate when I see someone pouring their heart into the little world they came up with in their head. Pretty inspiring. Your creation here is also what I think must've inspired a little world of my own I came up with in my head, so thanks again.
This is so incredibly sweet of you to say!!!!??? Ahh, thank you! It’s such a huge compliment to know that I might’ve inspired other people :’) Really, thanks so much!
Yeah, I’m lucky enough to be in a steady full-time job, so I just make games for fun as a passion project. I just like making up characters and worlds to play around in. I think that gives me more artistic freedom because I don’t have to worry about whether it’s “marketable,” if you know what I mean. But at the same time, that also means I have less time to work on my creative stuff. I do really like my day job, though, so I’m happy. I totally respect the folks who are hustling in the games industry and trying to make a career of it! I just couldn’t handle that intensity lol...I’m cool with making little stories like this on the side.
You’re welcome!! That’s something I hope to achieve. My brother and I have been speculating ideas for a game we wanted to create together, and we agreed that if we are able to inspire and/or leave an impression on people through it then that’s a huge accomplishment to be proud of. So yeah, I respect when games can do that and actually mean something to me, like yours.
Also, yes, I totally get what you are saying! The most important thing is that you’re happy with what you do and your life in general anyway. Of course just because a game is made at least mostly for profit doesn’t mean it’s bad and I very much respect those in that field, but it’s just so nice to see someone doing what they’re doing just because they want to. A game doesn’t need a bunch of fancy graphics and loads of functions, or even a lot of characters, to be ‘good’. Sometimes the simplest games are the best ones.
Hey, best of luck to you and your brother! If you ever do end up making a game, you should totally link me. :) And once again, thank you so much.
I agree with that too! It's not the resources that make the game, it's the love and care put into it. Some of the best games I've ever played are indie affairs made by people who just love what they're doing. They inspire me to work harder!
Hi there! The game uses keyboard controls, not the mouse, so clicking won't get it to start. Here are the controls for you!
z - select, advance text x - cancel, open/close menu s - switch characters arrow keys - move character or cursor shift - hold down to run or skip through text F5 - fullscreen
Hey, I just discovered and played through this game, it's so cute and i can't help being super jealous when I look at how Toa and Jett interact with one another (I, too, want a gay wholesome romance like this). i really dig your art style too and the story is pretty cool. I might do a let's play of this (though my commentary is pretty boring usually lmao) and I look forward to seeing other games from you ^^
I'm super happy you enjoyed yourself!! <3 (Even if it made you a little jealous, LOL.) Thanks so much for leaving a comment, and please do show me if you ever make that Let's Play!
Hi there! I just recently discovered this game. It's so cute! (ꈍᴗꈍ) I'd love to get my hands on a cover image so I can add the game to my game launcher/collection/database thing. Would you happen to have a portrait version of the banner image above? Or a text-less version and separate png logo? TYSM in advance!
Hey there!! Thank you for your interest in my game! <3 I don't have a portrait version of that banner image but I can certainly supply you with the text-free version and the logo! Here you go:

"Cheesy in a good way" is what I'm going for!! ;) So glad you enjoyed it and thanks for playing!
This game is so underrated. I absolutely loved it! This game had wonderful pacing, a beautiful artstyle and a satisfying ending. Well done!
Thank you so much for this comment!! You really brightened my day <3

THIS IS THE BEST YAOI RELATED GAME I'VE PLAYED >~<
Glad you enjoyed it!!
I really loved this game, was so original and amazing. Can't describe it exactly in words. <3
Thanks for playing! I’m so happy you felt that way 🥰🥰

THIS IS SUCH A SWEET COMMENT! Thank you so much for playing and for your very generous donation <3 <3 I'm just happy you enjoyed it so much!

Awesome, thanks so much for Let's Playing! I'll check out your video once I get the chance :)
If I had to sum up my reaction to this game, it would probably be keyboard smashing, which I will spare you from. This was great!! The characters are all interesting and unique, and the humor was delightful.
AWW THANK YOU!! Key smashes are always welcome though! ;) I appreciate you playing and leaving a comment <3
Great, I really liked the story, the puzzles and the romance, the characters are so captivating, it was really an adventure.
Super glad to hear it!! Thank you for playing! :)
I love it! I played about 30 mins, will continue in future promise.
Thanks so much for playing, and I'm so happy you're enjoying it so far! I'll watch your LP soon -- I find it really fun to see how folks react to my games. :)
Hi! it's me again, I finished drawing a fan art of your game but for some reason I can't upload it here ^^;;;... anyways if you'd like to see it I have the link here :), I hope it works ^^; https://www.deviantart.com/tixixx/art/Four-Eyes-796279941?ga_submit_new=10%3A155...
AHHHHH!!! THIS IS SO CUTE! I love it, love it, love it! Your shading style is really beautiful, and I think you captured their dynamic perfectly!!! <3 Thank you for your gorgeous work!

I just finished the game and omg it's amazing :D, I loved the story and the game itself ^w^! really beautiful work :)!!
Thank you!!! <3 So glad you enjoyed it!
Don't mention it :D! ^^! also, if you don't mind may I draw some fan art someday...? I really liked the game and the characters :)
Of course!!! I absolutely love receiving fanart! <333
Ohh, glad to hear so :D, then I'll draw something soon ^w^ :D
I can't get the game to work. I can't click play, it won't let me ^^'
Hi there! The game uses keyboard controls, not the mouse, so clicking won't get it to start. Here are the controls for you!
z - select, advance text
x - cancel, open/close menu
s - switch characters
arrow keys - move character or cursor
shift - hold down to run or skip through text
F5 - fullscreen
So far this is super cute but I messed up on one of the rock puzzles and can't pass through or move the rocks
Hey there! If you leave the area and come back, the puzzle should reset.
Thanks, idk why i didn't try this before. Great game
No worries, and I'm glad you're having fun! :)
Aah this is soo cute! I love how the relationship between Toa and Jett developed >w< It's amazing <3
Thank you so much!! Happy you enjoyed the game <3
Np! <3
Hey, I just discovered and played through this game, it's so cute and i can't help being super jealous when I look at how Toa and Jett interact with one another (I, too, want a gay wholesome romance like this). i really dig your art style too and the story is pretty cool. I might do a let's play of this (though my commentary is pretty boring usually lmao) and I look forward to seeing other games from you ^^
I'm super happy you enjoyed yourself!! <3 (Even if it made you a little jealous, LOL.) Thanks so much for leaving a comment, and please do show me if you ever make that Let's Play!
Hi there! I just recently discovered this game. It's so cute! (ꈍᴗꈍ) I'd love to get my hands on a cover image so I can add the game to my game launcher/collection/database thing. Would you happen to have a portrait version of the banner image above? Or a text-less version and separate png logo? TYSM in advance!
Hey there!! Thank you for your interest in my game! <3 I don't have a portrait version of that banner image but I can certainly supply you with the text-free version and the logo! Here you go:
