When will Rask get a update 😔

(+1)

monchi said he'll focus on finishing tom's and maccon's route before continuing john's and rhask's

(+4)
JOHN HAS A ROTUE??
(+1)

he does but it's still very short because as i said, priorities

how do I get to  the route 

(+1)

turn right and if john offered to switch seats, accept it

(+1)(-1)

Lowkey hope Zale gets a route someday

(+4)

Damn u probably got a teacher fetish

(+1)

I mean...He pretty cool. 

(+1)(-1)

Ngl i agree with you

He's a cameo character tho so the probability is very low

Wait, of what? I got to know now. Wait, isn't one of the routes a cameo?

not sure about that or is one of the existing route is a cameo, but the only came that i noticed so far are zale and the coach, not sure if i miss someone

(+1)

Monchi,I'm shaking...help

(-1)

Is Dave going to be a love interest? I'm finding his character very interesting :D

(+1)

He's 17 so nope!

(+1)

He's 17? Weird. Figured since it's taking place in college they'd be the same age. 

(+1)

Same :/

Think we can at least have a friend route? I am fine not having a date as long as we have a bigger friendship circle.

I guess if you go down the Maccon route, that's also technically a "friendship" route with David since David's going to keep appearing in Maccon's route so you'll most likely get close with him as well, only as a friend though. 

I have forgotten how to talk to strangers, so seeing MC befriend someone and not take them on a date is music to my ears... So this is what being Ace feels like. Sweet.

(+3)

oh wow a new update yey

(+1)

Thank you for your diligence! Good luck in the development of the game! I really liked the novel, I'm looking forward to continuing!

I was scared that the ghost thing happened in real life cause you can't just introduce ghosts all of a sudden . The menu changing to Archie being in the forest is a nice touch. Its reminds me of slasher films (  hospital chase and serial killer arc when lol )

Holy shit Monch is back!  🙀 

Maybe a dumb question but do I have to download a the new version of this game and just forget about the older version?  If I play it through the itch app I guess it updates more smoothly but I downloaded the game to Windows.

Yes, you should be able to delete the old version and download the new one with no problems. Saves should be there

(+4)

When will John's update be available?😿😿😿😹😺

John has a route?

Does somebody knows how to hide the text box on the android version?

(At the time of writing, I have currently finished version 0.20 whilst 0.21 is currently available. This review contains only my views after playing 0.20, and some things might be inaccurate for 0.21.)

I honestly don't know how to describe this game very well. It isn't bad, but it's certainly not a typical FVN. It seems very sporadic and some (if not most) of the events don't really make any sense (at least to me). No real context is given for (Greys, in particular) some things, the situations (Mall store running out of chicken, overly-aggressive PE teacher, other 'Japanese' teacher, especially the out of nowhere 'ghost') don't really seem believable or have no obvious purpose or reason for being there. I also didn't personally enjoy the stock music scattered about the game- not to say it harmed the experience, but some of it is so overused I could not take the game seriously when I heard it. I understand custom sound design is expensive and not everyone can afford it, I just believe it could have been done better. Feel free to disagree with me on that, though.

Another issue I believe is an issue with the game is that it simply cannot take itself seriously. I will admit that I am personally biased here in the fact that I personally prefer the darker FVNs, but even for a light-hearted novel it simply threw around far too much to feel genuine and interesting. Again, feel free to disagree with me here- perhaps that's just my personal preference on the scene impacting my review- but that is what I truly believe.

Now, I'm sure some of these things can be chalked up to "The game isn't done!" or "It's not far in enough to have been explained yet!", but frankly, I personally did not enjoy this game much due to everything I've listed. I would not recommend it to any friends searching for FVNs to play, as I just can't suggest a game with such 'strange', contextless design. If I had to give a rating out of 10, I could only give it a 6.5-7/10.

 I don't say any of this to slander the creators of the game, but rather to help the team gain an idea of what they can do to make it the best game possible! These kinds of games make up the majority of my reading nowadays, and it hurts my heart to see underperforming games or games that only need a bit more love to be truly wonderful, and as such I'm very passionate about giving developers the best constructive reviews as possible while also giving interested players a good idea on what to expect from the game before playing. I hope to see this game grow well in the coming updates!

HISSS!!! >XV CRITICISM!!! *points multiple Chekov's gun at you* 

(+5)

Honestly this might be a preference thing as I absolutely love the comedy in this game. I don't think the game is supposed to be taken too seriously.

I'd say the bigger problem is updates take too long and there's too much reworking being done. I just end up being able to play it once every say half year for a bit. Feels the plot not moving much is more because of the weird and slow update/rework schedule than anything else.

hey does anyone know what monchi meant by token in tom's route????!!??

the dollar ;)

the dollar

hmm what do you mean

(+3)

bruh this update was something alright. 😳

(+1)

You can tag the pc version in itch with Linux support btw. You include the necessary libraries in the build. I can confirm that it works.
Thanks for doing that :D

how do i do that? 

I'm sorry I didn't make it clearer that only monchimutt (in general the author) can edit the icons next to the downloads.

(2 edits)

Is there anything else besides the bath scene in Tom`s route? And what token is mentioned at the end?

(+5)(-1)

This VN never fails to make my cheeks hurt. I just wish it was longer :(

Also Tom won me over. I was foolish to be swayed by the meat friend!

(+3)

Is the horror tag on purpose 😳

(+5)

what happened in the bathroom.
TELL ME, MONCHI. WHAT HAPPENED AFTER?!?!?!?

(+3)

Welcome back, Monchi!

(+1)

wow i liked tom route 

Is this fine?

What scanner is that? 9w9 Could be a false-positive. Happens sometimes with Renpy .3./

(2 edits)

it’s VirusTotal, on browser, you could try it, it gives a graph as well with more detail, I find that pretty much all VN’s have at least 2

I hope it’s false

(+1)

I just scanned by downloaded version and no viruses were detected. It should be golden~

TOM!! o((>ω< ))o

(+1)

i loved this and cant wite for the next update

(+1)

I like this game

(+4)

why does the main menu changes when you beat the game?? it looks sad, I felt bad, idk why 😰

(+2)

Because Mr.Kitty after a long day and needs his sleep. However, I can see how the night shift can be sorrow. If I may add, though night is scary, moonlight is also associated with love sometimes.

(+1)(-1)

I think cause that final part was made for Halloween

(+4)

This game...the name fits, and i love it lol.

(+1)

How many days are there in this vn as of now?

(+11)

Depending on the route, either 1 or 2 days. The developer got hit with a nasty typhoon which made him lose his electricity and his roof so that's why there aren't any updates for a while now, just in case you were wondering. He's starting development again though, from what I've seen. 

(+5)

That good to know he got back on his feet and move forward. ^> 

Do you know when you are on the route you wanna be on? who is datable? im so confused because i dont know if im on Maccons route or Toms route

(+3)

Your route is determined pretty quickly actually.

SPOILER WARNING! IF YOU WANT TO FIGURE IT OUT ON YOUR OWN, DO NOT CONTINUE READING THIS POST!











Shortly after the story starts, you'll make your way to the auditorium, where you're presented with a choice, asking you which way it is. Left or right.

'Left' ends up being the incorrect way, and you are then presented with two further choices:

'Head back' leads to you turning around and making your way to the auditorium, setting you on Rask's path.

'Keep going' leads to following the path until you panic and are then found by Maccon, setting you on his path.

If you , instead, went 'Right' with the first decision, you make your way to the auditorium, and are met with your friend, John, who has offered you a place between him and his brother, Tom. He makes you an offer to switch seats when awkwardness arises over your past.

Saying 'Yes' puts you on John's path, with him clearly not happy about you taking the offer to switch.

Saying 'No' puts you on Tom's path, which begins with an 'awkward' conversation.

Hope that helps!

Oh gosh yes this helped me alot. thank you for making this easier for me. I had no idea what to do.

Just asking, what route has 2 days? If you consider the arrival of college as the 1st day they all got 2

This is very fun so far. I hope you will continue it.

(+2)

(+1)

(+6)

(+5)

So i love this game, even if its not finished it still gave me feels from the start to end of the update, i will look forward to more from this creator. Very well done and polished, 10/10

(+9)

Big bro vibes and he's cool while being a bit awkward like the MC (who's hilarious, by the way)

(+7)

(-5)

(+8)

NO UPDATES!!!! < A> *rolls in lazy cabbages*

(+8)

(+2)

And it takes time recover from that. I live my life through Typhoos, sometimes it takes month to 2 months recover and it unholy drain life out of you trying deal with it step by step. 

(1 edit) (+3)

love the visual novel hope next updates comes soon

(+2)

Hello~! I played the latest update on Maccon's route and I had a good laugh than ever! Maccon is such a sweet caring big brother~! The ghost scene was weird though... like... WTF?! lol. I have been following this VN since its first release and waited for a better update and saw mayor changes and improvements but kept its original charm of comedy and humor untouched. I'll look forward on the next update. 😀

(+1)

Maccon's update i need it
