My problem is that I cannot update, for the last two years, indeed. It used to work though, but now Cloudfare loop constantly. And checking on Reddit or here, users still have similar problems to mine a few months ago. Sadly, without being able to update, I won’t be able to use the app… 

Honestly I have just abandoned. Everytime I try something else, another problem arises : if I uninstall my antivirus, windows firewall still block the app from either being downloaded or installed.

Once I manage to get the firewall to let the app being downloaded, the installer bugs and freezes, I have to forcefully stop the process.

Once I manage to finally install the app after trying a few time, when I try to run it (without any antivirus yet) I get a message from the app it cannot run because of the antivirus (although none is installed)

I haven’t used the app in ages because every time I try to update it, I loose hours of my time for nothing. Maybe my old laptop has to go ? Maybe windows 10 is obsolete to run the new version of the app ? 

Anyway, thanks for trying to help me though ! 

Hello Itch io Team !

It's been months (if not years), and the app is still unsuable on Windows (10) : cloudfare loops, incessant antivirus bug, windows defender being unable to recognize your app as safe (even just to download it!) etc...

When will it be FINALLY all solved ? 

Sorry for being rude, but it's really a pain to deal with, and it's been a while now everyone has been complaining about it ! 

I have not found any update posted by the devteam addressing those issues, officially. (And the user guide is totally useless to solve all those problems either) The "fix" provided by other users (not Dev team) are obsolete too (and complex)

After uninstalling the app because of the cloudfare loop, I cannot re-install it (despite deleting the antivirus before hand bc I kwo it would mess it up) : 'broth' is still not flagged as safe. Another problems : the installation straight up freeze and never ends... I cannot install the app on "C:\" either...

I know you do not have the same budget as GOG or Steam, but come on...! It's starting to look like a lot like amateurism.

At least, good ol' browser works, and we can still download games straight up from there, I know. Updating games through it is a(n another) pain though...

Anyway, despite everything, thanks you for your (undoubtable !) hard work ! 

I am hoping for a 2026 Christmas miracle were the incessant and redundant bugs will be solved... 

I can’t wait ! Can you post the link to your Patreon though ? I cannot find it on the app. Thanks you ! 

I miss my tall grumpy wife Keir.

A short but very nice VN, with a mature take of relationship between adults. It's refreshing ! The voice acting is top notch, cherry on top of the cake ! Background arts are super well-made, my only complain is the jarring difference between sprites art and (spicy)scenes art. Two different art styles are always visible, and it's always odd... Both artists are super talented, but I personnaly prefer the sprites art better.

You get spicy CGs and spicy details about some characters. The art is very nice so I think for 5 dollars only it's worth it !

oh damn it's a gigantic review, i got carried away !

In short : it's a very good game, and a wonderful experience. It has exceeded my expectations ! Seriously ! 

Try it folk, you won't be disappointed !

Following this game from it's kickstarter stages, I can definitely say it's well worth e.v.e.r.y pennies and the wait ! Holy Molly ! My mind is blown !

Where do I start !? with my poor grasp of the English language ? 

(I may have spoiled just a tiny bit, despite my best efforts to not to... so, thread cautiously : the 2 last paragraphs -yeah i got excited writing this review- may be a tad bit spoilery)

The music is top-notch, alway fitting the various scenes - adding to the whole experience wonderfully ! Being a big sucker for background music, I'm really pleased with how well it's been executed in the game. The sounds effects are super convincing too ! And oh gosh, the voice acting ! You suffer and laugh with the characters ! 10/10 would suffer and laugh again with them, anytime ! The voice acting is top quality, the actors made a wonderful job, kuddos to them. I mean it ! On that part, I'm often disappointed with voice actings lacking intensity or proper feelings for certains scene, but not this time~! No spoiler though, you have to discover it for yourself ! 

(I definitely understand why some people like the baddie now lmao)

The art-design is obviously extremely good. Seriously, you have to play the game to realize how well everything has been lovingly crafted and rendered. The backgrounds folk ! Those gorgeous freaking backgrounds ! GOSH ! And the many characters in this game, from the side ones to the mains, well - no one has been forgotten ! Seriously ! Every single one of them has their own personality shining through their expressions, outfits, behaviours, speech. It's sooo well done ! Some characters are seriously fashion icons : the outfits, man ! Some others could be models ! dear gods 

I have a crush on everyone ! 

The characters are all very very endearing ! I sincerely hope ThrillSwitch will consider doing a prequel or sequel of their game, so we can spend more time with the gang ! I really want to know more of every single one of them.  They're imperfect, they're hurting/ have been hurt, they made/make mistakes, every one has their own issues, but it's never cliché.  The characters growth is amazing !

Yeah~ the writing, man. Man !

The whole story is for a mature audience, but not only because of the TW, for me. It tackles serious topics, in a very mature way. It's superb ! For an indie game, and without the possibility to fully develop and conclude all of the many subjects it touched, because of length's limits - it's so good ! Touching, even. The relationships, the struggles... How everyone tries to improve themselves, support each other or try to tear the others appart, it's truly moving and sooo well made ! 

Seriously, the art, the music, the voice acting, and the writing of this game are my OT4 ! lol Everything blend so well and enhance the whole thing ! 

The cinematic scenes (yes they even put cinematic scenes in the game !) are super cool, thanks to it !! Yeah, it's an understatement, obviously.  That one scene on the pier ... will i ever recover from it ?  I can't spoil, but my poor heart has taken some blows after witnessing some scenes. Again, the music, voice acting and the art complete each other really well, adding to the experience. That one scene on the pier folk...! me kokoro ouchie  

Oh, I was so into the story and the characters development, I've almost forgotten it was a nsfw game lmao ! Well, let me tell you a bit about that part : cherry on top of the best indie game cake I had in a while ! ;P  I will definitely not spoil too much, but oh dear gosh...!! WE are spoiled ! My goodness ! Again : the art, the music, the voice acting, the writing ! dat ass

Chef's kiss~

Honorary mention for Tulip and Marshmallow : tHeY'rE jUSt sO cUuTe oH My gOd !!! Even their own voice acting is freaking well made ! 

Well. Yeah~

... I really love the game !

Obviously, lol.

Thanks you, ThrillSwitch !!

Sincerely, 

a very happy fan !
