Hi there! I loved the game, it was super cute and wholesome! At first I thought it was a demo after playing the first route but it was actually so great the set up for the full story as I kept playing! My chat called it a slowburn but personally I thought it was a very good pace with lots of cute moments sprinkled in! Thanks for making this and sharing it with us, it was absolutely adorable!

Thank you so much for streaming my game! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
