Thank you for playing! Yes, the apartment tenant seems to be the near-universal favorite character based on the feedback I've gotten. :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a detailed comment! Very much appreciated.

Yes, I understand what you mean about the endings being abrupt. This VN was released for a jam so I had to scale things back to enable myself to finish writing it on time! I'm glad you had a good experience, nonetheless. :)

I'm happy you liked the art, the plot, and the music! I've included Filipino elements in all the VNs I've written so far, as it's one of my goals to increase the visibility of Filipino VNs on this website. :)

I've read loads of BL manga and manhwa in my comic-reading days, but not the one you mentioned. Maybe I'll check it out the next time I get a comic-reading kick!

And thank you for taking the time to comment on our VN. :)

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback! Much appreciated.

Thank you so much! Glad that you enjoyed your experience.
