Lose Eddie's only chip first, then bet 10 chips for each turn. Just choose random numbers to place bets. Don't spend too much time hesitating or reading the texts. 

Simple rules, great fun! ;)

Just went through Vick gang and Vega squad route! Will try Team Sailor later.
Knowing this only contains Chapter 1, I'm surprised by how complete and diverse the plot already is. It is overall intriguing. I'm also excited to see what all the character cards look like!




[minor spoiler ahead]





Update: Played Team Sailor as well! It is interesting to see how different these groups function.

Joining Vega squad feels like a teacher bringing three high schoolers to a field trip; in Vick gang everyone has to slip their asset, and I am whistled around like a dog (it's cool though); while choosing Team Sailor is basically like having a bunch of loving playmates. 

What draws my attention so far is the role of Cecilia. She seems to care for Sandbag, but she doesn't take any practical moves to help.  In Vick's route, Bones says he knows her type -- this can be a huge cliffhanger.  

If you ask me which group is my favorite, I'd say it's Vega's! Cuz I myself am a fan of Whodunnit stuff, and I enjoy exploring places :) 

This is just adorable! Lemme circle some alphabets for you:

I guessed part of the ending right, but it was heavier than what I'd imagined...And Dino, you are such a master of creating jump scares and amazing stories!

Though I played this game recently, I can already see why so many ppl are waiting for the update. Dino, no matter what you are busy with, I wish you all the best. Take care, and hope we'll see you soon!

[Spoiler?]

Thanks for making this game. The jumpscares and some of the Rorschach tests really creep me out! Look at those faces! Don't get me wrong. It's a compliment ;)

Tbh I'd love to see Albert and Vincent showing up together in your upcoming projects-they probably make a super good team!

I could never stay still during nap time when I was little. But now...I feel tired already when I see a curriculum and find out there is more than one course within a day.

What can I say? Guess that's how growing up feels like lol

Played both endings. I think it is about toxic friendship but understand why ppl think it's also about losing friends to addiction (it can be both, perhaps?)



[Spoiler Ahead!]




As a daughter with toxic parents, I really feel June and Ryan. Those friends/family might not be bad people, but you feel drained when they're around. 

From the beginning of the game I notice Vonnie bosses her friends around, McCoy is almost like a bully (describing June as lazy and messy, pushing her into the hotel fountain), and Carmen is all about herself and a bit of an alcoholic. And their overall reactions to June are pretty passive-aggressive. If I have to say, the only thing in common among them is that they are empty inside, so they find others to suck energy. And this is not enough; that's why they're withered, and look for food and water to fill them.

My interpretation of June being the last to their meet-up is that she unconsciously resists showing up. And Ryan perhaps feels the same, but for some reason Ryan can't get himself out of the group. It is a shame that we can't save Ryan, but at least June has the chance to save herself :(

Just went through all the endings. Thank you so so so much for making this game. I think I'll explore more of its dialogues in detail haha!




[SPOILER AHEAD]


I tested how the dialogue would change if I got the rat after my co-worker leaves for the meeting; it still showed me the part when he is terrified by the rat lollll! And my second thought was that I wish this were not just a bug :(

Try hamburger. That works!

  1. Cats? Yes
  2. Awesome story? Yes
  3. Nice graphic design? Yes
  4. Successful characterization? Yes
  5. Queers? Yes
  6. Easter egg? Yes
  7. Multiple endings? Yes
  8. Puns? Y  E  S

Can't believe that we can play this for free. This is in fact the best interactive fiction I've played during these years. And I agree that the game needs a map, but I somehow also enjoy losing my direction for a bit haha! 

In any case, you should be purr-oud of yourselves!

Action stations people!

This is so far the only itch.io game I've actually downloaded in my PC. I even created a playlist of all the in-game songs, so I can have BioTech vibe with me whenever I want. Good job y'all!

Thought you should know,

This is so enjoyable! The font is super cute and retro. I tried like 6 times to earn 1500 for my debt lol. Using left arrow as the backspace is a bit counterintuitive, but I just can't stop!
