Went into this visual novel not knowing much about it, and came out of it with an enjoyable experience! I really enjoyed the delicate soundtrack and relationship themes explored in the writing. The subjects tackled were presented in a way that I felt was very thoughtful, respectful and relatable. Thank you. This was totally up my alley and I'd love to see more like it from the studio!

This Novel is great, it feels empowering and I recommend to read it. But I have to warn about heavy subjects, there is no shame in quitting, actually if you feel it getting to heavy, please quit. Read it when you are in a place you can handle it.

The game trapped me in the scene selector when i clicked on a little drawer stand in the bottom right corner and wouldn't let me out without clicking on a scene, forcing me to reset the scene or go forward in the game.
