i really enjoyed this game! art is beautiful, each route is enjoyable. even the cannibalsim was more romantic than i expected. only route i did not do was Nyargh's "bad" ending (the endings arent bad, just maybe bittersweet)

so, i watched manlybadasshero play most of this, but it was so cute and subtly unsettling enough that i wanted to be the one to play.
i loved this, i love the pink and plants aesthetic, and the implied horrors of the world outside and the protagonist before the main event. id definitely play or watch a full version, though i do think short length is ideal. I'd just be interested in knowing what actually happened and the consequences
i did select no to skipping to relevant choices the second time, with "unseen text" selected the third loop, and hit the skip button under the dialogue if thats what you mean.. but I will try new game(s) and play with the settings to see if it does anything different.
also gonna look at the guide so i can get the full story :) thanks~
also! im unsure which folder in %appdata%/renpy is for this game? none share the game's title 😅 there is a "vincent novel alpha" though im unsure if i ever played a game with that name in it.
edit: i couldnt see how to manually delete my save files in-game
i really enjoyed the first loop and the logistics of not knowing anything before being transmigrated into a dating sim!
the only problem im having right now is that even though i selected DO NOT skip to relevant choices, thats all the game is doing. I tried enabling "unseen text" in the skip options but that didnt help either.
Is there a way to fix this?? i wanna skip seen text only, and youre telling me bringing **** to the nurse's office adds 0 new text?? even when **** is at your home?
this is long, apologies.
stan's route made me laugh, especially the karma and just how rage induced ford was.
poor stan and his poor luck!
his route was fun and charming, which is to be expected! Hope to see more of that soft genuine smile
fords route: ngl i looked up the results and id have gotten neutral. think i get why im wrong after thinking for a min though :) wasnt expecting a mini game.
the mini game does tend to clear the folders and id like to understand what im doing to cause that. maybe ill replay another time and figure that out, if it isnt intentional.
gimme more of that blushy man, love how so easily flustered he is.
fiddleford: i do see a misaligned letter in the text box, ive a pic of it, at the diner. theres a few regardless of font setting. very minor but wanted to mention in case the aesthetic is very important.
This was the start of a very sweet sounding route. I liked the touch of memory loss, his frequent doubts that are easily swayed. gentle words and smiles arent gonna be all he needs, but theyre a good first step.
the route felt the shortest of the 4 so far. i like that we got to spend some time with susan too! id love to see her album :)
bill: i liked the first slide's crayon feel.
i was afraid of what his human vessel would look like, but its not bad! Definitely not fully human, they couldve done a lil more research before sending him on his test.. but it is a nice change from the usuals that would not fit with the rest of the games. i dont tend to listen to voices, but his seems to suit.
haa i love he isnt feared, susan embarrassing him.
There is a duplicate word this route, when Ford motions towards El Diablo. "you doubt you'll lose sight of them them."
bill's threats are fun. wonder how extreme theyll get
unrelated: I like the different settings, careers, and fonts/text boxes. it is all tailored to each LI and I can appreciate that. It's more like 4 different games rather than 1 game with 4 options.
it does block bill in his route at times though, i think in that route itd be best near the bottom. that way both he and shorter characters are both visible during conversation. isnt a big deal but it can potentially hide expression changes and kind of looks out of place. i didnt notice it in the other routes but id have to replay to check.
when you hit escape, both save and load have the title card "load". if i try to rewrite a save, it asks if im sure i want to quit?
overall, id be very eager and excited to play a full version of each route. the work and care put into this is obvious <3
So, i type these out as i play so i can get everything out in order. This will be long, but I'm only probably going to play until Day 3 as it doesnt seem to be my kind of game. Its realistic in that things don't happen immediately, which can be a good thing! I may return to this in the future.
I can suspend belief for Ms. Nguyen's top, and her model looks much better than Ms. Carter's.
(edit: oh the school does follow a dress code but i guess not as strict as public schools..?)
Jackson is surprisingly well dressed for a high schooler, in his suit and tie! always sure to make an impression :)
The varied art styles helps to ensure no one looks the same. Luca looks typical anime, but Mason for example has more of a rectangular face. Ms. Brooks looks painted and a hint on the translucent side. It's interesting to see the multiple styes in 1 scene, and it's nice not to have "same face syndrome."
Its a catholic high school? that makes ms. carter look even worse, especially considering the conversation about a previous teacher rumored to have had relations with a final year student..
Okay, so theres slight loading delays when selecting what to do for the day at school. the screen fades out after you go back to the selection menu, instead of when you make your choice. unsure if intentional.
"go back" in kitchen menu does not get rid of the kitchen selection menu, but clicking outside of it will. minor bug.
Park stuff seems to work fine.
I appreciate that it says "nothing is happening" at the front of the school option, so i dont feel like i have to choose it and can explore the others.
just started, but why does the teacher look like that.. its so out of place for a high school and her pose is kind of gross with how she emphasizes/pushes up her breasts unnaturally.
the description also makes it sound like a college setting, with it being a scholarship and not mentioning the school level at all. I was originally unaware scholarships were available for that level, so learned something new! Still, be nice to know ahead of time as I'm a full grown adult and really hope there wont be any weird scenes..
very minor, wouldve liked to know i was naming a boy character as I used a feminine name. not a big deal, but that's because it looks unisex. Description also didnt mention, my bad for assuming as most ive played were girl MC's unless specifically stated.
will add an additional comment after playing more than the intro.
sorry for format itchio messes my typing and speech to text really badly. ive an example in my bio but it re-adds words constantly that i only typed once and it is very hard to leave comments as a result. im still gonna try to play, but wanted to let you know the immediate issue with starting the game 😅
okay so im doing my first play through and ohmygod its so cute and actually better than expected. Definitely play more than the once!! Unfortunately skip doesnt stop at changes, only at choices or transitions, so i actually missed the first change until i was asked to drop the xxx. i love games like this
loved it. played several runs.
for anyone having trouble with the arrow key fight, HIT ALL 4 AT ONCE. It'll register the correct one. only way i made it through.
was unsure about mew mew's route, it seemed dismissive? but it's more that mew mew isn't sure of what pronouns or identity fits, so it's still a learning experience, not a definitive reversal kinda thing.
i don't belong to the trans community so idk if it's a good rep or bad, but it is better than straight up ignoring. it does give reason for it.
loved it. played several runs. was unsure about mew mew's route, it seemed dismissive? but it'sokay . so i only skimmed the comments so apologies.. but the text in the menu hurts to look at, with the overlapping and idk, 3d attempted effect? not sure what its called.
it doesnt look like the rest of the game text is like that, but i also did not see an option to change that. if it is in-game, an option to use a normal text would make it more accessible. im gonna give it a proper shot, if the text is like in the images, and hopefully have more to say after.
okay, that'd make sense as I dont actually have internet and usually avoid browser games, as I have to tether my phone and use my data. Much prefer to download to play offline 😅 less potential issues that way.
what i have been able to play is enjoyable though! had to stop cause it drained my battery, but i do intend to finish the demo over time.
trying to play, not much luck. Didn't load the first time (I reloaded the page), and while playing it crashed. I did download the log in case it'd help, but im gonna paste the error given here. I'll make other comments as I continue to try. Editing comments in the past didn't work out.. (keeps adding extra letters even if they're not the ones I actually type, may be a mobile issue but unsure. I'm on a PC atm)
While running game code:
OSError: Download error: network error ('images/bear string.png' > '//game/images/bear string.png')
The game exited unexpectedly.
More information may be available in the browser console or contained in the log.
Absolutely adored this, even if i couldn't bring myself to see any mean options. the amount of time, effort, and love that has most certainly gone into the creation of this game is wild. top tier, better than some non-fanmade games I've played.
had me grinning like crazy and excited the whole play through. i dont think i have any complaints, which is unusual for me!
oh the voice line wasn't captioned because maybe it wasnt meant to play at that time. i just reached a part where it does fit and has a caption (fairy lights)
edit: if you skip too fast, the buzzing stays and doesnt go away. needed to reload.
found another mismatched audio line.
doesnt stop me from loving this,
