itch.io

So I started with Donnovan because I planned to play strategically -> It’s easier to go around the rules with a cop in your pocket right ? Loved his first reaction being such a real no ah, ah, ah. And the warning from MC’s uncle was so telling for the rest of the story, we really need to be careful on this route.

For Vince I thought he was the most safe and at the same time I wanted to keep an eye on him. Will he really not take the business from us ? His different reactions to our choices was interesting and at the same time, not sure we really like the implications when we ask him about the investigation. Is it what he thinks about MC or is he just really worried about Mc’s uncle ? Bit at least there is loyalty to the Uncle and to the business. Real nice cliffhanger before the next chapter !

One little problem and not one actually : in episode 1 when they are in the car there are 2 lines one on the other and the two begin with : Couldn’t find file… But it gives no problem since it’s purple on purple so almost not visible and we actually have a background, it’s not all black. I’m not sure it’s something that should be fixed.

Gerald or Gerry loved the mysterious atmosphere and learning little clues around. It was really nice to see the other boys so relaxed and learning more about what they did day 1 than what they are telling on their own route. I have to say it’s probably one of the more spoilers route but I’m really hooked, the pace was really nice.

One thing : The girl (Bea) Elliot introduced to us has the face really low. Like the lips on the neck and eyes around there the nose should be. It was weird to see especially when she is describes as attractive. And when we have a zoom on her face it’s all on the left on the background. Same problem with Lynch’s face being all on the left when we’re talking.

Another one on Gerry’s route : Couldn’t find file ‘Background/mansion_ballromm_day_v1.jpg’ so the background at the end of the episode is all black.

I ended up with Cliff because he has the more chapters. Wait ? Mabel ? Will we meet Mabel ? I’m not gonna say more because… There were a lot more chapters than what I thought. I got until epilogue 3 and I don’t want to spoil accidentally.

One thing : in episode 1 after the first choice when arriving at the bar Cliff and Andrew are superposing. Then when they are still one over the other Andrew lost his hat. Then in episode 2 at the amusement park after the choice there is a moment when Cliff’s hat disappears too before reappearing. Pretty funny ~.

The only typo I saw in the game so bravo at the end of the conversation with Leslie (episode 4) : T’ll send you another letter… 

In episode 7 after choice when talking with Cliff : Image ‘sad’ not found.

The number 2 typo in episode 10 : ”Nobody gave a rat if we was happy or not.” It’s were. 

2 typos in epilogue 3, I’m not sure it’s typos : qunnin’ for gunnin’ is my guess & the other lathe instead of lather.

Funny how our MC next morning is not wearing the same thing, it’s easy for players to get deeper in the stories. I loved the little things you learn about other characters in every route. It made me really curious about some and wary about others. I’m curious to read more and discover more about them and the universe.

Information : The web version is missing now on the itch.io page. Maybe it’s too much data for itch.io ?

And I can erase some bugs to avoid people reading about some spoils if need.

It works perfectly ! 

And I'm so happy to know you didn't have (too many) problems creating this version ! If you need someone to make sure it runs on this kind of computer I devote myself ah ah. 

I tried to play the web version but you can't choose the route, you have only the prologue. Is it a bug or is it volontary (jsut asking to be sure there is no issue anywhere) ?

I plan to play all the routes before coming back with feedback ~. I go back continuing to play ~.

Congrats on being able to check all your objectives for the year !

It must have been difficult and took so much time so as a player thank you so much. Your efforts were more than appreciated, it was great to discover every new updates and new versions of the game.

And a real pleasure to play the game. You made this year better for a lot of players !

And as egoist I can be, I can't wait to discover more of the game and I'm really curious to know more about your new project too.

Have a nice last day for the year ! Thank you again !

So happy to be able to play the chapter one the web version ! (having a mac it was pretty difficult for the downloadable versions, I even had a bug to find the page of the game for the appk version but I got it by a search navigation).

I hope you'll be able to find a way but anyway THANK YOU, you know how I'll pass the last day of the year : playing the game !

I hope you'll have a nice day ~ !

Hello, 

I tried to play the new demo but it didn't work.

 I'm talking about the mac version, when I double-click to open the second time it pop "Impossible to open this application.".

The old mac demo still works perfectly and can be opened. 

Am I the only one with this problem on mac ? Do you know how to fix this ? T_T

Thanks anyway !

Click on your right on "View all by cutiesai" and you'll see every games and projects. The DLC will be there. 
Personnally I'll wait for the game and the final version of the DLC if there is one before buying but it looks great ~.

PS : It would be great to put a link for the DLC under the DLC news ~.

Great story & great investigation. I really like it.

People loving murder's investigation or wanting to feel like Hercule Poirot you HAVE to play this game !

Logic will always win !

Ps : Otto was so sweet ~.

Don't worry we'll wait <3 Take your time.

Well it sucks. I'll wait for the full free game at the end in a few years maybe ? Well if it still will be free when completed. I know public posts is a problem but I'd love to hear from you once a year. It tells us there is no abandon. Anyway do what is good for you. That's what is necessary. And you still doing what you like being the YAH game or something else is winning agains the mean little trolls !

I love your games. They are obviously mean trolls. If they don't like it, then don't play it ! Don't be put down by them ! Be sure of you and your works ! Kisses <3

So sad and at the same time a balm to the soul. 

I'd love to read more about them and their relationship. Specially after what looks like the real ending.  

I know nothing about the original work since you say it's a fanmade project but I really loved it. Great work !

Really nice demo. Loved the art, compelling story. We'll probably fall for Sylvain before he falls for us. And there is enough teasing for us to wait for more. Still wondering about the whole eating. People don't forget to eat ! And let's cook, even for Sylvain ~.

I hoped it would work on computer too T_T

Still looks amazing.

Really nice demo. I had a lot of fun, I definitely want to know more about this world, the characters and this cat. We need to know more about the cat ah, ah !

I was a little surprised to see 0 option to give up on the Plan A (see the title for the one curious) but I guess it's the beginning. We have to know more before making that kind of decisions. 

I'm also curious to see more about the negative and positive influence. I got tricked while trying to stay in character and picking one of those. It's funny to see the differences (specially for Vitale I was really attentive to the details).

So : Great demo, can't wait to play more and so, so curious !!!

I really like this one. It's a geme EVERYONE should play ! Such a balm to the soul (coming from an incubus ah, ah, ah). Thanks for this game.

As a reader/player of a lot of works be it text based games or even novels, I always feel a dread when creators want to remaster or rewrite. 

Some times it can bring great results and some other times it's even difficult to see the differences and months, even years, can be lost on a work.

But I actually understand the feeling of growing or becoming more skilled in writing and sensing a disrepancy between the first acts of a work and the lasts.

So my advice is to finish your work, not because I absolutely want to it to be finished but because between today and the day of the "last line" your writing skill will grow. If you think you need to remaster the beginning wait until you're sure it will give the same feeling reading/playing from beginning to end.

Personnaly I think it can be fun immersing yourself in the game more and more as the author grow, the player follows. The want for a polished work is totally understandable and it can be a source of pride.

In the end you need to do what is best for you and your work. We, the players, will support you. Your game is amazing, have no doubt.

Long straight hair no fringe. A classic but always a good answer when you don't fall in love with an hairstyle. It's like the safety net just in case ah ah ah.

The blue nigella is my heart's choice but it looks dangerous so I'll think probably wronglly the grass is the right choice and pick the grass ah, ah, ah !

It's been a few years. Almost every rp forums were put down because of it at the time.

Damn ;w; Let's hope !

There is still https://cogdemos.ink/ as an option. But I think if we wait and see someone will come with a new idea for a platform and it will be evidence for all of us. I hope so at least.

It's definitely not the first two points, I promise I know how to bypass them xD !

The itch app (I have to say I had no idea it even existed) works. It's a pain since when you decide to click on launch in the app it doesn't work, you have to actually go to the place where you downloaded the game, to click on the icon of the game and then for like 15 times click on the "accept to authorize the game to acceed to...." place where you decided to put the game. Then it finally launch !!!

I'm tired ah, ah, ah. I hope it can help people facing the same problem.

I'll try the demo 1st August on itch.io, on the itch app and on Steam and tell which one is better. I did not try Steam this time but it seems easier than the itch app (not having to click 15 times on an authorization). But I'll try and tell you later !

No problem ! I know visibility is important for games. It can be the difference about its popularity. It's great you're looking into the bug, I hope it will all work out (1st August sounds like a perfect date but don't worry if it does not work it's in such a short time >< !) ~.

Hello hello ~

I can't play the updated demo (mac version). The old one works perfectly but I can't launch the game with the new one. It jumps twice and then close. 

It's a new problem I get with games on itch.io I guess there is something somewhere with code or even itch.io who just blocks. I know some developpers succeeds in fixing the bug but I don't know how (so I can't help unfortunately). I hope you'll be able to, I loved the first demo and can't wait to play the new one ! *-*

I tested it, it works perfectly on Steam thanks to the Key.

No idea why the itch.io download causes such problems ?

I'll let a review as soon after playing the entire game !

I just bought the game and the mac versions (all ages & adult I checked) does not lauch. 

I see the icon of the game jumping twice and then disappears.

In comparison, the demo version works perfectly.

Is anyone having the same problem ? >< Since I just bought it I obviously want to play soon but I get it can need time if there is a bug somewhere so I'll wait.

Thanks for the update !

There is also a petition (I think there is another one too but I did not find it) to protest : https://chng.it/WhjbWDrQrW

And if you change the platform for your game, we players will obviously follow so don't hesitate to make another update here to warn us !

I found there was a petition about it on a page of another game and found the link if someone wants to sign it : https://chng.it/WhjbWDrQrW

I hope we will still be able to play our games in peace ><

I did not know. WTH ? 

They did the same thing for rp sites (specially the lgbtqia+).

More importantly the link for the petition does not work >< !!!!!! Does anyone know the actual link ? Or was it taken down ? T_T

I hope we'll know where autjors and games go and that itch.io will come back to some sense but it's a big hope. 

PS : Found it : https://chng.it/WhjbWDrQrW

I had a lot of fun playing the demo ! 

You really get in the story thanks to the many details placed in the game (like a really detailled authopsy report) and the way little by little the player understand at the same time as MC who could be the body found. It was realistic.

I'm not sure about the lieutnant attitude but it was fun to read.

The other characters are interesting, still shrouded in enough mysteries to make us curious and still being presented. Since I had a doubt about RO potentials at the time I played the demo I was a little (definitely more than a little) about some RO but well they ARE the suspects. 

Actually ALL characters are suspicious in their own way so I think it's gonna be really fun to play the investigation part in the long way !

Lyanna and Hugo are the ones supposed to help but imagine if it was a scheme and they are the guilty ones ? Yes, I'm hyped to this point and everyone, everyone is a suspect. (I did say that before, no ? Yes definitely but I dare other players to already cross some of the list.)

Plus, let's be honest the three ROs look great. Yofiel is the one who hyped me more because the meeting was so short. But all meetings were short. Alexander looks like a good suspect and tricks ? Sly ? Ah, ah, ah I defintely want to win the Game. Gaspar is probably the one who could find the faster who MC really is, no ? He is dangerous (probably at many levels but definitely for the investigation).

The demo really excited me for the game so I have big hopes for what will happen next. Thanks for the demo !

Hi ! No worries ! 

It happens, the really nice problems when you're coding...
I'm glad to learn the Mac build will exist one day ! Some developpers give up the Mac build if it doesn't work immediately so I'm really happy to know you won't give up !! 

Anyway the game looks great, take you time for the developpement and have fun doing it ~ !

It looks great and I'm really excited to play the two paths but unfortunately the mac version of the demo can't be open it's litteraly the message on the screen. Let's hope it's a mini bug and not a big one !

Really nice demo. I'm so curious to see the different possible paths !

Playing the game you would even think there are more routes, it's great, it means you really succeded in making real characters and not just secondary characters in the background no one remember.

I'm really excited to see how the story and the game will develop !

I'd love to play the extended demo but it doesnt work.

The mac version doesn't open it says : file damaged can't be open.

For info, the old mac demo version works perfectly.

Thanks anyway !

One day I'll play your game ! Let's cross fingers ! ;)

So I wasn't sure where to ask. But I have a bug : I can't even extract the game from the file .zip
I'm on mac and I know hot to play it after but did anyone got that same bug ? No extraction by the extractor utility or the Unarchiver possible ?

The game looks great anyway **

I thought the terminal fix it was only for the mac with intel processor not the silicon one. Well I will not try it (don't want to mess something) but if other people tried and also got a buggy version it could be nice to warn. In that case the mac version would indeed be buggy whatever we do.

Funny.

Trying BlueSky could be a solution ? A lot of developpers went there these last few months.

Hello ~

I have a problem with the new demo mac version the SILICON one. I can't open it at all. 

For information I could open the old silicon mac version. I don't why I can't open the new one. Is anyone having the same issue ?
