So, critical comment not permitted around here? Viewpoints which diverge from hymns of praise? OK. But in the earlier post I did say I loved the game. I think really if you re-read my post, not that it's worth doing so, you'd realise I'm not 'upset' in the least, or 'concerned' about standards (!) or anything like that. Maybe you're offended because I hold reservations about something you like. I can't tell.

Though, as ever, the idea of someone playing through a hentai game/VN with the express intention of skipping out all the sex is, for sure, an entertaining one.What do you mean "platonic playthrough?" It's a kinetic novel, my man. The story is entirely linear and predetermined. Every playthrough will be the exact same.

That's probably one of my favourites too, definetly my favourite when it comes to Sarah. I tend to be very wary of tsunderes since often they just feel like a 'cute, quirky' representation of abusive women in relationships, but I do have to admit Cosy did a great job with her. No bullshit, not trying to ruin someone's like out of embarassament, no real conflict, just a lot her of calling you an idiot, and slowly letting her walls down. while she does.
Cosy nailed what a tsundere should be

Thanks, I'll take a look at this.
Loved the update, especially how things developed with Hannah and Catherine.
I found the new UI to be pretty buggy, and I couldn't even open the Bios page without getting an error message, but I am playing through JoiPlay so that could be why.
I also found the animations to be very stuttery, but again that is likely a JoiPlay problem.
All in all, my only significant gripe is that I have finished it already. I was intending to take my time with it and savour it, but I couldn't bring myself to ever actually stop. That is actually a strength of this novel I hardly noticed till now, it flows incredibly well.

hmm that sounds like a issue on their end i just started a fresh play and already on day 3 and no issues as of yet
The way things were in the most recent update when Rachel tried to talk to the mc in the classroom but was stammering, it looks like cosy has set the ground work for that to possibly start in the next update. Also, to hazard a guess, I think the mc may take advantage of that and have Rachel work for him as another waitress during the event that he has to host as it would be a fitting punishment for her to serve men considering her early behaviour.
Don't waist your time on that bug issue I mentioned. I did two further tests to double check and worked out what the problem was. The first test I just started a fresh story from day 1 and ran from the start till the end of the latest update using the skip text alt key and no problems. The second test I deleted my save files and installed a clean copy of the game as the images and replay scenes were still viewable in the old one even though I deleted my saves. Ran the story from the start till the end of the most recent update using the skip text alt key and no problems. The problem was that I initially tried to load a old save to continue, it started the story again from scratch and it seems it didn't like it which is probably why it gave me the exception errors during the first 6 days. Hope I saved you from wasting energy on it.

i agree so far i have no issues .. except deleting old save files from the load screen
The weird thing is I kinda do this with some if not most of them.
Doing it with Crimson High, doing it with this one, pretty much doing it with Hail Dicktator as well and used to do it with the "traditional" japanese visual novels I read as well. (Don´t read those as much anymore.)
There are a couple more on here that I do it with but I´ve forgotten their names.
For me the best vn´s are the one where the sex scenes are hot, but the story is so good I´d rather skip them than wank off and get back to the romance.

Not sure what happened. Don't know if this is a glitch with the game or something I did but I saved and closed the game and then like a minute later like 30 copies of the game opened up at once. I was afraid it was going to keep going and crash my computer but it was really weird and I haven't seen any game ever do this before. Anyone know what might have happened?

Made a compressed Android port of Cosy Cafe v0.11.
Got some basic gestures loaded in: swipe up for save menu, swipe down to hide UI, swipe left to rollback and swipe right to skip. Save files are now stored in the Documents folder. This sometimes means that you may need to close and re-open the port after installing so the save folder is properly created.
Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the port and I'll see what I can do to get them sorted.

Eh growing up my friends were almost universally older than me. Even now as an "adult" my closest circle of friends are all like 15-16 years older than me, they're all dangerously close to being old enough to be my dad, and I don't let them forget it. Can't have my olds forgetting their places.
Finished the update, thanks for your fantastic work as usual. If I may, a couple of questions/suggestions:
- There is only one photo in the gallery, is this intended? Will you consider to "retroadd" pics like the Catherine selfies and the princess photo in 0.11 update to it? There may be also more that I forget. [SAW THIS QUESTION WAS ANSWERED IN PREVIOUS COMMENTS]
- I'd appreciate a lot an option to delete saves in the save menu.
- I appreciate the bios revamp, but the character backgrounds seem a bit random. I think it would have helped to make characters from the same family with the same ones, or to group them in a sort of way that immediately tells the faction they are in.
All of this is nitpicks though, you're doing a fantastic job so thanks again for the update.

Ah see, now there's the rub. You comment isn't really critical, which would be fine, it's a whiny complaint. "Ugh, why talk about birth control? It ruins my immersion!" is all it is saying and then whines further about the story not being "realistic" enough for you.
Ah, see now, there's the patronising sneer. I don't need the story to be any more realistic than it is. Far from it.

I also had a lot of older friends, but I think it was mostly because most of the stuff I like I was introduced to by my older brother, so our friend group was the same.
I don't really know if I was an only child or just didn't go out with my brother that much it would be the same way, never thought of it. Hahaha

I got really into RPGs before that was remotely close to mainstream, so I think that skewed my friend groups some. Was not an only child, but was the older brother, so no idea how that'd impact. I had same age friends from school, but almost every (only the sith deal in absolutes) friend I've made outside of an academic setting has been significantly older than me.
