I like this IF so much I've already played many times, usually I don't do this kind of thing. Cannot wait to see the rest of the mysteries regarding the plot! <3
if arthur has a million fans, then i am one of them. if arthur has ten fans, then i am one of them. if arthur has only one fan then that is me. if arthur has no fans, then that means i am no longer on earth. if the world is against arthur, then i am against the world. (real) (i am extremely downplaying how much i love this man)
on a serious note, this is one of the best IFs i've read here on itch.io (might be a biased take because of arthur - and charlie, too!). the concept was so interesting and promising and you executed it perfectly. top-tier writing as well. honestly, i feel like i can read it over and over again and i'll still find new stuff. that's how good it is.
overall a great demo. hope we get a new chapter soon, can't wait!
That was sarcasm directed at someone being pushy about updating. The project’s not dead, but Nell is an adult with a life, responsibilities, and commitments that leave them with less time than they’d like to focus on passion projects that require a ton of creative and analytical energy. I know it sucks, but giving Nell time to continue at their own pace without rushing will lead to a much better end result when the time comes. Art can’t be rushed. Let’s all take a breath and be patient.
Really fun so far! I'm noticing that a lot of the choice texts are cut-off near the end though. Not quite sure how to fix it because it didn't go away even after fiddling around with the settings or widening the screen
can't believe i'm admitting this but when i started to play i sort of forgot the plot premise so when IT happened i screamed hhdjssj. i was thinking it's just a cute little reality tv dating show game cause my brain genuinely wiped any other info from my mind. also i have never wanted to befriend people more than griff and florrie despite being the exact opposite of them. 5/5 game patiently looking forward to more.
I chose to date Nyra, Florrie, and Imogen and I seem to have gotten stuck in a loop. After Nyra's date Avery says "the second date is over" and then the next date is with Florrie, after which I just get back to a second (identical) date with Florrie. After answering her "Are you glad that I picked you?" question for a second time, there is no option to progress.
lmao so I use "Ellis" as my character name in games I play, and I am chronically ill, you can imagine the incredibly fucken surreal experience parts of this were for me.
(genuine recommendation if possible: if the player does share a name with one of the characters, a quick little line like "oh cool we have the same name!" or "wow, nice name huh?" or something would go a long way. as it stood, I spent several minutes trying to figure out if I'd encountered some kind of bug before going to your tumblr to hunt down a LO list so I could confirm names.)
OML i cannot express this enough I LUV THIS GAME SO MUCH AHHHH :Cry: HHHH im so exited 4 the next update hhhhhhhhhhhhhh also I LUV GRIFF OML hes v bbg^^
The fact that you’ve got me, notorious reality TV hater, absolutely GLUED TO MY MFING SEAT is a testament to your impeccable storytelling! So hyped to see how this develops and wishing you all the best from the tortured writer’s labyrinth! 🤝

Also, the UI is pretty and elegant, love it.

NDXUSOUFCJSODKSAOZ CHARLIEEEEEEEEE and vinh of course <3
maybe Atticus too…
I'm torn between Florrie and Rowan. HELP 😭
I love them both
I kinda love Vinh and Arthur although he is who I suspect as a killer the most lmao
at the Arthur scene during the first set of dates I think I started melting
I absolutely love the writing of the dialogue choices in this game!
"Call me Switzerland, because I'm staying neutral."
"[I'm] a durian, because I'm gross and everyone hates me and I'm banned from public transport."
GRIFFIN LOVE!!!!!!!!!
There were so many ROs to choose from and I loved everyone of them...
I chose Griffin but at the same time wanted to choose Adegoke as well😩😩😩
CHARLIE, MY BELOVED
my friend is asking about the s scene in chapter two, how do I trigger it? 😶🌫️
The first one you need to be sober after never have i ever and coupled with Griff, and the second one is you need to be drunk and coupled with syd
Uhhhhh this is just awesome. Love the concept, love the ROs, weeeee
AHHHHHH GRIFFIN 😍😍 I am in love. And I need more like omg a murder mystery?!
I. Am. HOOKED. This is an amazing story and I cannot wait for more! Hopefully soon! *fingers crossed*
griffinnnnn🥺 GRIFFIN.😘🥰🥰🥰😘
REAL
I'm sorry, I read this as "Griffith"

I ran into the same problem! Tried restarting and choosing differently n still got stuck

whens the next updattteeeee
Honestly it took me by surprise but I loved it.
Oh My G, it's back!!! 🤩
Seriously, you do not know how DEVASTATED I was when the old demo was gone! And now it's back!!
Oh my godd,,, I'm in love!! I dont know what makes this so appealing and addicting but its been on my mind ever since I first played it ^^
Teasing Arthur back and his interactions with the MC, the chemistry is so fucking perfect ughhh, definitely gonna romance him first >////<
This game has taught me a valuable lesson. Read game descriptions.
It's back! This is so great! i like the new look too. Really gives the game its brand.
You broke my heart. You just smashed it forever.
I just wanted to be with my hot curator who likes champagne and thinks that everyting is more magical at night.

...
But, seriously, your writing as they "returned" made me tear up. That was certainly not what I expected, but it was one hell of experience Y__Y
so this happened when i tried to suspect arthur of being the murderer (i did choose him as my partner - have 44% relationship with him)
wuhhh.. I didn’t know you could see the relationship percentages!! This helped me find out Ty!!
Oh...MY...GAWD, I came for love (and money) and stayed because of the intrigue, alright, you got me hooked, thank you for making this lovely game!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! ahhh im so excitedfor the rest to come out, how often are the episodes gonna be published ? 😳😳
LOVEEEE
So glad this project is still alive! I played the choicescript demo a while ago and I'm completely hooked!

This is incredible, I am completely in love with the characters, the intrigue just the game in and of itself ! This is great keep going :))
This is amazing!! One of my new favs, I've already replayed like 4 times.
This is really interesting! How many chapters do you plan to be in the final product?
Hi! There are 10 planned episodes/chapters.
