AAAAH XYX MY BELOVED 🥺🥰🥰 im so glad his route is here !!
i played through all and really loved the additions to each route, Toasty’s was especially fun! The art update is also super satisfying, thank you for all your hard work !!
that was an absolute banger of a game, and I enjoyed each route, although Xyx gave me hell. I think I enjoyed the love put behind everyone's backstories the most. The details that went into Blooming Panic's story really sold it and made it feel less like a game and more like a real community. I had to check several times to see if Blooming Panic wasn't a real web novel lol
*slight spoiler alert*
One thing I will say is that I put my character's username as PaniniHead, so when all that talk about Blooming Panini started up I got super confused and super creeped out lol... Seriously, what are the chances that I choose to use panini in my username and that there was an original Italian food AU...
All in all, I will always have a deep fondness for this game!
I just finished playing all the routes and getting all the endings and jumped right here to scream about this MASTERPIECE. Thank you so much for creating this game!! It was wonderful and I might or might not have pulled a nightowl and stayed up way too late to finish the game. I had so much fun watching how all the storylines played out and the twists and turns were so interesting and the story had me hooked from the get go. There's so much heart put into blooming panic and everything from the actual story to the story of the webnovel was just *chef's kiss* AH LOVED EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF IT
I want to say A LOT of things- great things!!!! but I'm still reeling from my first playthrough with xyx. So for now, let me just say- THANK YOU FOR SHARING ALL OF THEM WITH US!!!
I still love the game, but I am curious... would it be possible to see the old art style somewhere? I really miss it. Perhaps is because I got used to it.
Now that we have an XYX Route, I sort of want to see a BIGLADY and Oniontheif route. Onion really holds fast to the "perfect boyfriend" persona, and how he would never disrespect someone the way Nathaniel did in the bloomic series. I really would like to see that. And Lady is just so.... well lesbehonest, she's perfect for a female character. She mentions a bad date, so we could definitely see her as a potential suitor. Other than maybe two and salo, everyone is single and ready to mingle, correct? Even June? I'm sure you are closing the door on this project and opening another, but there are a ton of us that would love a FANDISC of more content!
I was so excited to wait for the XYX route release. I am beyond pleased that you left the old version for other's to play if they wanted to, but also updated the CG and music and even the text for the other characters! It was a little sad that it looks like Quest didn't get a total revamp like the other two older characters, but I'll defo be replaying it just to see, even if it's not listed in the notes. I really enjoyed XYX, and I kinda want to see another game like this, OR maybe we get another route? It would be nice to have a female route or two for those who want it, and possibly get more on Onion? He seems like he doesn't have anything going on relationship wise, which begs to question: Is he also a complete and total fireball? I love this game and the art style is just amazing! The VOICE ACTING is on point. You don't get that often. I've avoided some pretty big name games because I couldn't get past the cringe VA. Good job!
Oh, and can I just say, adding more to the lore of the universe made this game one of my favorite stories yet! Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see what you do next!
I was having a rough day and then I check and MY FAVOURITE COMFORT GAME GOT UPDATED. Thank you, it really cheered me up. I'm excited with every new thing I find. I played the previous version like 6 times already.
I absolutely loved this game! It was very unique and all the characters were funny and endearing. The art was incredible and the music really set the scene (I liked that you could change it around too). Also I just wanted to point out that I really liked that the characters were older. As someone around the same age as the older boys it was nice to not feel like a creep playing one of these games where all the love interests are like 18-20 lol
Uh for the other routes, the Quest one I picked more sensible options, like when they ask you how late you stay up say that you go to sleep early. And when asked about your working situation, say your trying to keep positive. For the xyx route, choose to be more snarky. Like theres one options where you can say to starve off exsitential dread, and another to say ive always been here. Those put me on his route. For NakedToaster, theres a walkthrough in the devlogs.
In day one, there are usually 3 options for text, and one of the three options leads to a character. If you exclude a few exceptions, and the fact that some of the other options are hidden until the final route is unlocked... There is a nightowl guide here, so if you avoid those options, you'll end up on one of the other routes, I'd assume. The XYX route walkthrough is here also, and I was able to find one for Toaster, but not Quest online elsewhere. Those seem to have been removed to be updated for the new content, but with Quest, you want to reply to the "sleeping time" with before 10pm, and most of the other options are more "formal" like when he asks if you've read the last chapter, and you have three versions of the word YES, but some are more slang terms, always pick yes. And when he asks about why you were awake/joined the server, that one is more about finding fans with like interests, instead of the more angsty replies. :) After day one though, there are easy bad endings for most of the characters so you're on your own! At least they added the photo of who's route you're on after day 1 so you can quit and try again if you got the wrong person. :) It's almost like most of quests answers are the first colum, owl is second, XYX/Toaster are the 3rd, but not ALWAYS.
hey, i really really REALLY enjoyed to play this game!! It was so sweet. I adore the style of this game, the art, the work you guys have done. How far Quest shocked me with his past BUT even after I loved him as a character even more. The fact, that love dosen´t live on the same street is BRILLIANT. I just wish that this game is getting a new update.
I love the game update!! So glad we can still access the previous version, but... omg, its incredible! I love the music, the art and the VA!! Everything about this game is incredible! I cannot wait to see what else you make!!xx
THIS GAME. IT IS. A WORK. OF ART. Everything!!! The routes, the voice acting, the characters, HNNNN This game will stay with me forever. I wish I could pick a best character but... They all decided to run off with my heart and idk where to find them Same with the love interests. RIP. Once more, amazing job!!!! *drowns this game and everyone who worked on it with hearts and stars*
I stayed up way too late playing through this-- but it was so amazing!!!! All the characters are FANTASTIC and gorgeous and felt so real and--- !! Just so well done, I cannot get over it. Love, love, love. Thank you so much for creating this and sharing it with us!!
omg i loved it sm!! i played out all of the routes and i got to say i LOVE THEM ALL SO MUCH i have Quest WALKTHROUGH W/ME tho i didnt get one picture, idk what it was tho, but the good ending is <3 also also, gosh Toasty <<<333 id do anything for that bae
binged the game in a day and now im sad there isnt more >~< ITS SO GOOD THO and the pronoun option god bless! gotta admit i was a bit surprised when i saw salo's wife had the same name as me lol but i really enjoyed it :) thank you for making this
i think i've completed this game 3 or 4 times now, its absolutely my favourite game atm. thank you so so much for creating this wonderful game. i cannot believe how attached i am to every single character!!
I have been playing this through the night and finished both nightowl and quest’s routes. I have school but this game is so addicting, I haven’t been able to sleep
Amazing game, about to replay the game just for the voice calls-- I also love the relationships of the background characters (such as BIGLADY and Two2) Really sells the deal that they are intended to be actual people. I can't wait for your later projects just omg I love it, feel like this is all real <3 Made my end of 2021 very special
oh my god I started this game at around 9?? It is now 2AM and I've just finished all the routes, saving Toast for last and aaaaAAAAAHH!! SUCH A GOOD GAME GUYS I AM FLOORED! AND TIRED! BUT MOSTLY FLOORED!! I can't wait to see what you guys get up to next, and a shout out to my favourite guy Quest for being an absolute SWEETIE!! Love the art, love the writing, and the layout was so unique and fun, I didn't want to stop playing. Thanks to the whole team for creating this masterpiece!!!
Best freaking thing i could've done to end this hellish year of 2021.
with xyx's laugh and the sound of fireworks, i have no regrets in life.
anyway such a god-tier game, i can't believe you let me play this without paying. I can't even pick favorite between them boys because they're all really well-written and relateable in some ways. AND THE ARTS, GOD BLESS YALL WITH SUCH DELICATE HANDS!! I love everything about this!! story-wise, visuals, and the UI (i guess that's what it called? idk about this stuff well).
i love you all who had their hands on this amazing works, i wish u all the best shit in this world.
and i'll always remember xyx's biggest
ENORMOUS
HUMONGOUS
love <3
wait hold on im editing this bcs i can't believe i did not deliver my special thanks for VOICE ACTORS OMGGG HOW YALL SO GOOD ;0; you guys make the characters even more real and alive <3 I particularly like biglady's, her voice just stick in my brain.
omgggg it's xyx. I legit thought he looked like Hisoka before he had a route.
The only bad thing about this game is the bad endings. They are really depressing. My heart legit started drowning in a sea of eternal saddness after reading them.
why's this game so good !! i played all the 8 ending and I'm sad because i finished it soo fast (ಥ﹏ಥ) , I'll miss quest DEFINITELY THE BEST BOY !! ～(^з^)-♡
I’m in the process of downloading this right now - the first version of this game was absolutely incredible and I’m so excited for this revamp!!!! This game has inspired me so much <33
im ngl. I'm on day 7 with xyx, my final route to play, and I'm just now realizing the dark shading around his mouth is not his lips! At least, I think the illustrator was goin for that. Same goes for nightowl while I played his route. The open mouth illustrations for both had me so confused. My eyes definitely played tricks on me.
EDIT: my eyes keep understanding and switching the shading from open mouth to xyx's lips

I had my username set as tiramisu. TIRAMISU. I had an identity crisis! AM I Lola? AM I a tiramisu?? Will I get moldy???
dude how can i get quests routes i've got all the others routes except naked toaster and ques , also i loved the rest of the routes
choose the more sensible options! like saying "hello everyone!" instead of "hey :D" or saying you sleep at 10pm instead of 4am :)
ah tyms ^
no problem :D

Also that song in the lobby??????? BOMB AF
truly a work done with passion & love <3
I'm surprised Onion doesn't have a route
seems like Mr. steal your girl
gave me second male lead syndrome throughout NightOwls route
also shook there is no Big lady route
I still love the game, but I am curious... would it be possible to see the old art style somewhere? I really miss it. Perhaps is because I got used to it.
You can still see the old boys if you download the game jam version of BP! (BloomingPanic-1.0)
Now that we have an XYX Route, I sort of want to see a BIGLADY and Oniontheif route. Onion really holds fast to the "perfect boyfriend" persona, and how he would never disrespect someone the way Nathaniel did in the bloomic series. I really would like to see that.

i just finished the xyx route and I'm blushing and smiling so hard I love this so much
routes i've done so far (updated):
xyx - bad end
xyx - good end
nightowl - good end
quest - good end
nakedtoaster - good end
xyx - good end (yes I replayed it I love him so much :>)
oh how do u get xyx's good ending?ive tried but i keep getting the bad end :')
https://robobarbie.itch.io/blooming-panic/devlog/326192/xyx-walkthrough
haha i got the bad end first thing and i was so sad i used the walkthrough instantly :) but the good end is amazing

I’m in the process of downloading this right now - the first version of this game was absolutely incredible and I’m so excited for this revamp!!!! This game has inspired me so much <33
I loved the original game, and Full Bloom even more. For a FREE, indie otome, this game is 10/10.
I would die for all of them.
Question: is the meetup between mc and xyx flashforwarding 7 months too? Like how the other routes did?
there is a time skip, yes! it's not specified how long it is, so it can be whatever ya like
im ngl. I'm on day 7 with xyx, my final route to play, and I'm just now realizing the dark shading around his mouth is not his lips! At least, I think the illustrator was goin for that. Same goes for nightowl while I played his route. The open mouth illustrations for both had me so confused. My eyes definitely played tricks on me.
EDIT: my eyes keep understanding and switching the shading from open mouth to xyx's lips
LMFAO my friends have said similar things, so u arent alone
xyx's route (Day 4): idk if this is a bug but after reloading the game the character who is typing is not shown like it usually is
finished the xyx route VERY AMAZING I just rlly luv this game I could play the same route for hours
