that was very disappointing. ow, that grammar. looked amazing though.

Wow, great graphics!

Visual novels aren't really my thing, but I did really like the graphics. And some of the dialog was kinda funny.

Characters are so adorable! Like it!

Hi, this is Vector from the Victory Garden team! (posting under Solifuge's account)

Wow, I really admire your graphics and scene-setting for this one! You have some great characters, too, and the music works well to create a good ambiance. However, the narrative's a bit random, and it only superficially seems to match the theme. I hope you submit more visual novels next time! I get more and more excited with every one I find to review.

Nice work. The visuals and the sounds are very good. And the story was interesting. Thank you for this game.

Wow the best graphics I've seen so far, also REALLY loved the transition style! the story/dialogue was obviously made quickly but it was good for what it was! :D

These graphics! One of the best of all games I played so far.

simplesmiler 2014-04-30 12:32

Hey! Hey, listen! This art is awesome, and music is too!

Dev here. Thanks for all the graphics compliments, I think CaptainGenial is happy to hear about that. :)
@Dreii: Transitions between acts are inspired by Shaft (an anime studio), fast rhythm. We liked them too. ^^
Quick note on the narrative: we had to translate everything from french to english (with the help of Camille, thanks a lot), and the most delicate part is humour, because the semantics are so different from one culture to another.

You really have the Japanese creepy-cute aesthetic down with the character designs - I especially like Aguaron. However, the script could do with a little refining - some of the dialogue felt a little stilted, which made certain parts hard to follow.

There's a lot of polish in how you handled the act transitions (The night club opening was good in particular). There are some faint seamlines on the characters for the different heads and mouths - I'm not sure if that issue's unique to my computer.

I don't know what that was, but I'm super glad I played it. Crazily memorable.

The art was superb, no complaints there. Audio worked well enough as well. The basic premise is interesting, but the dialogue and story felt too random. Played trough twice though. Nice humour. Also noticed the lines that GrooveMan described when playing fullscreen (1080p monitor).

So moe! I love it X3

Really nice artwork!

matthias_zarzecki 2014-05-07 17:03

ahh, the graphics are lovely! :D

Ce n'est pas tant la masse de travail qui m'impressionne que la cohérence du tout. Et forcément, j'aimerais aussi avoir les textes en français. Beau travail.

arrogant-gamer 2014-05-07 21:23

Nice music, mood, and character design. I kept playing mostly to see the next character! The story wasn't very engaging, but I think with more time spent developing the characters and setting you could have something really neat.

I especially liked the small round police officers!

Great graphics! The simple animations were really cute! :)

I was able to get to three endings: bed, magic and money. I wish the options had more consequences than it seems... Most of the time, it seemed like only one or two answer were actually meaningful...

jupiter_hadley 2014-05-08 03:35

Super awesome graphics! I included it in part 14 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/-VvtqXfr-Xs

Great art and character designs. The plot is pretty much a collection of gags but there is some nice humor in there.

joe40001 2014-05-14 10:55

Good art, I played 4 times trying to get different endings but I could only get 2 (bed and money). Interesting idea for a story and again the art was pretty well done (though for some reason the characters had single lines across their face for me)

Good job :)

blazingfanfish 2014-05-15 04:59

First of all, the art is great, and the audio is nice. The concept of the story is interesting, but it didn't executed well. Put more mystery in the story, and let the story unfolded one by one. I'm sure your game will be a great one. :)

2hitadam 2014-05-16 15:55

Love the art, the story lost a little in translation but was still pretty funny at parts, I could see what you were trying to do with it :)
