You are going to need to check all Nametags, there seems to be a lot of wrong character speaking. Lab, overly energetic, Check! Cat??? What Cat? He looks like a fox! Lack of tail isn't helping either! And even for me its impossible to not Judge him already, sheesh! Wolf yay! but opf very silent.
It feels like the info on the clubs given is quite little and arbitrary, main issue being that we are given a choice of three options first day, then 4 options with 3 of them being new ones the next day. Also there are three love interests, and it unclear at this point who the are, but to join Amy is to join Zack. Its pretty easy to guess which 2 of the remaining 3 the other 2 are in, which leaves a fourth option up in the air, since we can already associate someone with the three others. I don't know its a bit confusing and misleading, making the choice unclear, without even saying that the choice is meant to be unclear.
If the MC can see a character (depending on direction their head would be looking/peripheral/line of sight) then if that character has a sprite they should be shown. This could also instead be a CG if you feel its a good spot for one.
Hmmm... quite the Philosofox after my own heart! Zack has an uncanny look that reminds me of a Character in another VN... oh and his name was Zach too... I also take it you have yet to add in tails for the sprites, can be tricky. Checking oneself out in the mirror, perfect spot for CGs!
Do feel free to post links to he survey even on the update release message too! More places the better! After next release, may feel compelled to join the Discord, and, if needed, can help with ideas if you struggle somewhere, and I will do it FOR SCIENCE! and good quality characters and time with them too... >.>
Hello! Allow me to answer some of your questions and concerns!
First off, all of the name tags on this Itch page are correct! You will just have to reach a certain point in the story for them to make sense :]
About the looks of the characters, well I can't say much without spoiling but all of their looks have a reason for being that way and most of this is actually going to be touched upon in this next update!
About the dateables, Well, I'm sorry that you felt misguided into doubting if the characters were dateable or not! I'll make sure to be clearer on that :]
The reason the sprites are shown in a specific way in the VN is merely to facilitate coding, but since now I know some of you are really into details with them then I'll try to be more attentive.
About the CGs, I decided to make the first three CGs of the game in the extra-content mode. The reason for this has nothing to do with the story itself, I just wanted to give said content more emphasis so people keep an eye out! If you must know, there are plans in a VERY near future to make CG'S for the main story! Hope you keep an eye out for them :]
And lastly, thank you so much for all of your feedback! Some creators don't like receiving them but I have to say the way you expressed your issues was constructive. Thank you, and I hope to see you in the future.
Yeah, everything is alright! Thanks for asking. Here's the progress of the update.
The beginning and ending of the day is done and coded alongside Niko's activity. I'm halfway done through Zack's and I don't have much progress with Derrek yet. Out of the 5 new sprites I currently have 2 coded in, 2 that need coding and one that I'm still doing the design.
Since I've taken some time to release the update, I was thinking of dropping Niko's day tomorrow, Zack's next week and on the 15 Derrek's.
If it's any comfort, I'm working along side the fourth update with this third one so it takes less than the usual (2-3 months).
About the surpriseeeeeee, I don't know if I should release it along side this update, but it's finalized and waiting to be used.
I was gonna make a poll on the discord server to determine if I should release the content per week, or just wait for the full blown out update. If you wanna vote then here's the link!: https://discord.gg/Bt4QawXZKH
ALSO LAST THING SORRY FOR THE WALL OF TEXT
This update requiered a LOT of coding due to how the Affinity will work on the game and how it will affect the routes, so I hope you understand the time taken.
Hello! I would like to apologize for not making an announcement, but I got sick after my move so I had to stay in bed for a week :c
I, yet again, am postponing this update. My apologies in that regard, it is becoming a common occurrence and I don't like it. I will work even harder so no more postponing happens and I can have that 5-6 weeks update schedule that most VNs have.
On another note, I have seen some of your comments on the survey and other social media platforms and I'm really happy that my game is starting to become more popular. So thank you all so much!
Now, you might be asking, why is this update taking quite a bit? You even released a build 2.5!
Well, that's because I had a mess on my code that needed an update, combine that with 5 new sprites, a sprite rework, 2 illustrations I did for the extra content along with a day3 for everyone WITH text variations depending if you did an activity the day prior... Yeah, this was a lot for little old me.
The update is incredibly close to done and I'm not sure when it's releasing so I'm not giving it an actual release date. You can rest assured that it won't take any more than 3 weeks though! (End of September)
I was thinking about it but honestly that's a lot of time, I'll just try my best within each update and see what fits better, but it really helps to have a supportive community, so thank you!
Hello. I played the latest demo and all I can say it's pretty decent and good. The characters are very distinguishable, fun and unique in their own way and quirks. I feel that maybe a few improvements on the art style and user interface could use some... and I have no idea what species Amy is.
But anyways keep up the good work and you will make a very good visual novel.😉
There are a total of 4 possible paths in the game! 3 of which are Niko, Zack and Derrek respectively. The fourth path is only going to be accessible if certain choices are met after the prologue is finished (No, it's not Amy)
That's really weird, I checked with an alternate account and didn't have the problem. I reccomend to update discord, if the problem persists you can add me temporarily at AlessDreem#4342 so I can manually put you in
I'm deeply sorry for not announcing the delay, I have barely gotten time to work on the VN. The good news is that the main script, the CG, the rework of the sprites, and most of the rewrite for day 1 are done. I only need to edit and code day 2 content. I would like to give you a time frame for the release but I haven't gotten much free time lately and next week will be hectic but rest assured that the update will be out before the 31st.
It won't get sexual content for a while, but that was the main reason. The 18+ is also for including violence, death, drug usage, and harsh language. It mainly depends on the route you are playing though, if you are too sensible to these subjects I reccomend you to ONLY play Derrek's route, if not then play the remaining paths.
Derrek, at some point, will get a nsfw scene. What I meant was that the themes portrayed in his route will not be as "heavy" as the ones in the remaining routes. Thats why I encourage people to play Derrek's route before any other due to its lighthearted nature.
Apologies for misscommunication in previous reply.
Very cute!! A very pleasant and light experience ,I like the characters so far ,designs aswell , the internal monologues of the main character do a pretty decent job at showing his state of mind and thoughts aswell as give this slight feeling of isolation, is something I remember doing myself everytime I am alone. Good work ,will wait enthusiastically for next updates :)
That's really weird since the link doesnt appear to be invalid when you click it and some people have joined in the last 12 hours, so I think the link is fine(?) I would encourage you to try again after updating discord.

So, what up Aless?
Everything alright with you, the update or the surprise?

(sorry for grammar mistakes im kinda on a rush)
Don't worry, is good to know your are okey and still working.
In few words the update will be this month in little and several or in one and big alongside the surprise.
Perfect 👍.
Also i make a discord account.
it you see me there i have the same username.

Much love and sorry for the quick note
Aless
PD: I got a surprise for all of you in October ;)
Don't worry Aless, is good to know your are okey and not giving up with the update.
just one tip: Maybe schedule and release the next updates in 10-12 weeks (basically in 2 months)
I was thinking about it but honestly that's a lot of time, I'll just try my best within each update and see what fits better, but it really helps to have a supportive community, so thank you!
No, thanks to you Aless.
That is my job 😎.
Everything okay with you or the game Aless?
Aless, you get sick?
I hope you can recover.
Blessings 🙏 and be strong 💪.
Hello. I played the latest demo and all I can say it's pretty decent and good. The characters are very distinguishable, fun and unique in their own way and quirks. I feel that maybe a few improvements on the art style and user interface could use some... and I have no idea what species Amy is.
But anyways keep up the good work and you will make a very good visual novel.😉
Thank you for your kind words! I will continue to do my best!
Also Amy is a goat! (pun intended)
Update is scheduled for July 31st. Thanks for your patience!
Thank you Aless, for the announcement.
I be waiting for the update with pleasure 😊.
Niko daddy. 🤤
Wha- I think I forgot about myself...
There are four featured characters besides the protagonist. Which three are the dateable ones?
There are a total of 4 possible paths in the game! 3 of which are Niko, Zack and Derrek respectively. The fourth path is only going to be accessible if certain choices are met after the prologue is finished (No, it's not Amy)
Thank you for replying. I appreciate and am looking forward to the answer!
Discord invite is expired or broken.
Should be fixed now!
Invite has expired
That's really weird, I checked with an alternate account and didn't have the problem. I reccomend to update discord, if the problem persists you can add me temporarily at AlessDreem#4342 so I can manually put you in
New update?
The update is done, I'm just waiting for the beta testers to finish looking for bugs and typos
Thanks for answering.
But i really want to see your characters again, specially Derrek ^_^.
I'm glad you do! Just wait a couple more hours !
Discord invite is broken
Fixed
Do we have a time for update yet?
I'm deeply sorry for not announcing the delay, I have barely gotten time to work on the VN. The good news is that the main script, the CG, the rework of the sprites, and most of the rewrite for day 1 are done. I only need to edit and code day 2 content.

Thanks for your patience!
There is no April 31. Well played
I COULD HAVE SWORN ON MY LIFE THERE WAS A 31ST IN APRIL!
Apologies, update should be out shortly
Will it have nsfw?
At a later point in the story, but yes it will.
I love this game already
this vn has toriel in it lol
I am eagerly awaiting for the next update. This is pretty good, being in an early stage.
Thank you so much! And dont worry, development is going smoothly :D
Hey quick question before I get too deep into this VN, what do you mean when you say it's for 18 and above?
Probably sexual content. But besides some language, there's no real mature content yet.
It won't get sexual content for a while, but that was the main reason. The 18+ is also for including violence, death, drug usage, and harsh language. It mainly depends on the route you are playing though, if you are too sensible to these subjects I reccomend you to ONLY play Derrek's route, if not then play the remaining paths.
that means derek doesnt get nsfw?
Derrek, at some point, will get a nsfw scene. What I meant was that the themes portrayed in his route will not be as "heavy" as the ones in the remaining routes. Thats why I encourage people to play Derrek's route before any other due to its lighthearted nature.
Apologies for misscommunication in previous reply.
thanks for explanation. And ı mean its kinda obvious why other rotues will be heavy
Good workkkkk
Thank you!
Very cute!! A very pleasant and light experience ,I like the characters so far ,designs aswell , the internal monologues of the main character do a pretty decent job at showing his state of mind and thoughts aswell as give this slight feeling of isolation, is something I remember doing myself everytime I am alone. Good work ,will wait enthusiastically for next updates :)
I'm glad you liked it, hope you enjoy the rest of the game :D
I love this art style
Thank you!
After completing 2 secret scenes as well I tried to join the discord but the link doesnt seem to work
That's really weird since the link doesnt appear to be invalid when you click it and some people have joined in the last 12 hours, so I think the link is fine(?) I would encourage you to try again after updating discord.
Yeah dealt with a problem had to use vpn for some reason but yeah it works now
