I thought this was really lovely. It’s very easy to mess up this kind of ultra-naturalistic dialogue -- there’s a lot of invisible work and experimenting that goes into making it land instead of just being annoying (although that’s subjective of course). I got pulled in immediately, got a few really good laughs, and smiled warmly at the end.

I really enjoyed playing this! The dialogue between the two has a "Before Sunrise" and "Reality Bites" vibe, but with a more bitter sweet twist and less romance. Reminded me of a friend of mine from university that I stopped getting in touch years ago. Keep up your amazing work!

wow i am so flattered to be compared to those movies! thank you so much for saying that. this comment really inspired me 💕

It was a wonderful way to experience teenage years!
And the hand-drawn art was nice as it reminded me of those days when I was shining.
I am not good at English, so I had to make use of translation software while playing, but it was still a lot of fun.
