The game is, sadly, a buggy mess. A restaurant tycoon where you have to try to do stuff as quickly as possible can't work when you can only interact with something from one exact not-very-obvious angle, when the main character always faces forward so you can't even see what you are aiming at. Stuck customers and corrupted saves was just the final nail in the coffin.
That said, i'm someone who would still like the game if the story/end was interesting, but... no, not really worth it.
Thank you. It's such a meaningful, well-thought out game.

The only route i felt comfortable playing was the friend route. Treating them as an equal being. In the parent/child and romance route... Even though I sort of expected to enjoy it, I felt out of place, lying to myself. No matter what I was doing or what I was projecting at them, no matter the appeareance, they just weren't a child. Sort of playing a role, yes, and I didn't know how willingly. They were a small adult... real kids are not small adults. Yes, it raises the questions of AI and morality etc, but also a couple of very personal ones - what do I really want?
Amazing job, really.
