Just had to make sure you weren't MIA or anything lol. I get the struggle you're facing in finding someone new, so I won't bug you about it. But major props for still keeping the game in mind—you've got my interest in it. Keep up with the grind, Nijo, I know you're going to make it! And thanks for the response, mate. :)

Thank you for the Heads up if it comes hard to hard i gonna need to make the scenes myself but they would look horrible lmao.

Try to make it less intesive for phones so that it doesn't need that much ram do it won't crash

Hey!  I really want to try this game, but the download for Mac isn't working, it says that the page has either been deleted or wrong url. The game looks amazing, though!

just checked and yea whoops i dont really know how this happend but irefresehd the links and it should be downloadable again!

Thank  you so much! I'll make sure to download it now!

Hi, great game so far, but I'm running into some issues
After finished the first case, when I encounter the flower field part, the game starts slowing down before completely stopped. It shows (Not Responding) at the top when it happens

I reloaded the save file, didn't work. I redownloaded the game, didn't work. I checked VPN, Anti-Virus, nothing was up.

Is there anything I can do?

Are you Playng it on PC because if so then its Kinda unusual or are you playng it on a Phone Device ?

(+3)

I haven't checked this game in a long time, maybe I'll download it again

How do i get past the first case (Stolen book)?

(+4)

Talk to everyone, investigate them and look around everywhere. After that, go back to the Church's Entrance and you'll see a new option, click it.

(+2)

As always, amazing work! Look forward to future updates.

Thanks for bringing this type of game to android. The prologue hooked me up to this game while playing I encountered some bugged the part when I chose a personality option sometimes it bugged like when I chose option 1 it wouldn't let me continue to the next progress and kept showing the same thing another issue I encountered when reading the cases of the characters there was 1 option that located outside my screen luckily I was able to click the edge of the option. Can't wait for another update

Is it possible for you to send me screenshots of the bugs you got because It is the first time i hear these kind of problems!



But thank you a lot for enjoying my game it always motivate me to keep going :)

(+1)

Sadly the first bug that I mentioned is probably rare because when I tried to trigger it it didn't happen again, so what happened the first time was when I chose the wrong choice and I wanted to rollback so I pressed the back button and suddenly the bug happened and like I said sadly it didn't happen again when I tried it the second time


The second problem as you see in the image one of the choices was outside of my screen, here my phone screen spec

Size: 6.3 inches, 97.4 cm2 (~83.6% screen-to-body ratio)

Resolution: 1080 x 2340 pixels, 19.5:9 ratio (~409 ppi density)

I never encountered this problem in other vn games that I've played

(+1)

Oh i see Thank you for sharing i will look that i optimize it that it dont happen again on Android Devices!

Any hints on the next update?

(+2)

Probably end of September with an announcement how we proceed with our updates. 


But I don't want to promise anything!

Prologue was really interesting! MC is an absolute cutie, also love the choices on what to do and how to interact with the characters; keep doing what you're doing! As for things to improve, maybe give it an extra proofreading pass or two, to make sure the start of the sentences is capitalized and stuff. Found one bug, which is that you can talk ask that girl about her being a suspect, even if you have not read her file yet. Good luck, for sure a game I'll keep an eye on!

(+2)

Thanks for the kind words, and for the tips I'm glad you like it so far I'm working on improving the quality of the general game!

I would give 20/10 of my rating.. love the art.. and the point is, this game run really "smooth", despite how big the file is.. 😅

 i've never seen any game as smooth as this game (when talking about developing a game using ren'py).. at first, i was worried if the game will encounter some lags.. but, i was shocked because the game really run well.. because i've some experience with ren'py games on android.. and this is absolutely amazing..

Can't wait to see future updates.. keep going!!! I really love it, and i will recomend it to my fellow friends too.. hehe 😁

(+1)

Thank you for the extremely nice words I appreciate that and hope to continue to meet your expectations and future updates

5/5

Love the art, extremely happy you give us choices on who we flirt with, what we do etc and I'm enjoying the story as well! Any clues on the next update? I was so disappointed when I reached the end of the prologue lol. Can't wait for the rest of it.


Ps- You'll definitely get me as a patreon subscriber if the game keeps going this good. Android user here.

(+2)

wow that means a lot to me i am really happy about your text and so happy that you like it it just gives me a better confidence every time, thank you so much!

about the update, well currently i can't really give an estimate date but in any case i try not to let it wait too long

(+3)

The game look instesting i like how game set in this period of time it look different from this kind of game and i like how the character look very unique i hope the update coming soon looking forward to it

(+1)

Thank you for the kind words 

I'm happy to hear that you like it so far and i will try my best that you like next update too!

(+4)

This game looks extremely promising, I hope everything goes well with the development and you end up being able to do this full time instead of working a job.

Thanks for the encouraging words, I'm trying my best!

(+1)

It's not abandoned right? Because the concept, story and idea story is really good

(1 edit) (+1)

It's not no worries we are almost done! With the Prologue

(+2)

It is a good game, I am looking forward to next update.

(+1)

Thank you for your kind words we're working hard to not dissapoint you :)

Update coming soon?

maybe somewhere in april but that could change is what nijo have in mind 

I think

Hey we are working hard to get it ready since progress reports and checklist are all published on the discord server I will try to publish one on itch.io soon so you can see what is the state of affairs

( it will not be finished in march sadly )

When's new update? March?

(+1)

Probably end of March since we are doing the first interactive part it's a lot of coding and stuff but mid February I will try to post a current progress info

I think I found another typo when Tom entered the bar. Tom said "Oh Autumn , what are you doig here". Btw Autumn isn't the name I used for my MC but Tom somehow said Autumn.

Ah dang thats her default name will be fixed thank you, are you interest in joining the discord there you can post the errors in the channel (of course only if you're interested) =)

(+1)

Out of topic but: What kind of music will you use in the game? Orchestral? Modern? or Other types.

(3 edits)

(If the Fanbase want something specific i wouldn't mind doing that instead)based on the succses of the game I aim to get self made music but if thats not the case probably orchestral or ncs that sound like they are from the 60s because i think Modern would destroy the atmosphere.

I'd love some jazz or blues in the bar. I also can't wait to hear your self made music. You could also use some classical pieces that are in the public domain for some other scenes.

Btw I don't mind posting the Errors here , I don't really use discord much. 

(+1)

I don't mind doing that I just always need to look that I find music that have no copyright thats what i have to watch out for but i keep this in mind and try to look for some :)

(+1)

I enjoyed it , as a digital artist I do want to say some things tho . First off , Tom's name is in dark-ish blue which is not really contrasting to the black text background making it hard to see and I also think some parts like the bath scene , the colours are a bit too saturated and contrasted  .But overall I like it , can't wait to see what's coming in the future. 


BTW I use Android and the app crashed a couple of times . Don't know why tho. but thank God auto save exists.

(3 edits) (+1)

Yes, I will definitely change the name colors again also we work on fixing most of the scenes with the contrast and everything (but this is mostly planned for the finished release of the prologue with reworking some scenes), thank you for this info.

And because of the APK crash I can't tell you exactly either, I always test it on my smartphone and it worked perfectly.

I hope I will convince you with the finished prologue that it's a worth game :)

(+1)

I found I typo when MC goes back to the bar , you misspelled 'think' as ''thin'

(+1)

Thanks, an overall Fix will be coming soon 

(+4)

I love the font you used for the text. Nice and easy to read. Intriguing start.

(+5)

Not too bad for a start, I found the character introduction sweet and the general story appealing,

If the second part of the prologue is implemented really well, it can be a really nice start very well done o/

(+1)

Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you liked the beginning, I'll do my best to make part 2 of the prologue well

Are you gonna make it an update or a different game/file

Update normally it was planned to release full chapters but since we wanted feedback we splitted the prologue in half to already correct our game mistakes so that it's already polished when the Prologue is finished. So that means after the Prologue part 2 its basicly finsihed with the Prologue and the game starts with Chapter 1 and so on and it will be always an update

Oh ok, i will be waiting patiently

(+6)

After playing it for about 20 minutes i can say that it's a great game, not too adult-ish. And i like that because it doesn't ruin the whole experience of being a detective, there are some grammatical errors but at an understandable amount, some scary backstories happen here and there also. Anyways a solid 8 out of 10 game. I liked it

(+3)

Thanks for your nice feedback Mcdonalds Worker, it means a lot to me, I'm constantly trying to correct my grammatical errors and will continue to work on it

(+4)

looks good ima give it a go
