Oh my god, I LOVE this game, it's very wholesome and engaging. Are you planning to put it on steam because I would 100% buy it.
Thank youuu! I'm relieved you found it engaging as I was worried the VN may be too chatter-ish. That said, the VN is made for the reader-type players. I do plan to release the next VN on Steam, maybe this one too in the future.

Considering the project has been lacking support, going on Steam may help keep it alive, otherwise this project will become unsustainable for me to continue.

I hope you'll stick around to follow the end of this VN's story, and maybe look forward to the next one as well! ❤

Went to itch.io and paid for both your games. Also will pay for updates.

Hi, where did you encounter this?
Did you start fresh from the beginning, and are you using any mods?
Sorry for the late reply.

I played it on Android using Joiplay. No mods and a fresh start.

The problem maybe on Joiplay. I've seen already a few instances of games I ran on it that had similar problems loading resources.

This game looks great but I'm waiting for it to be completed because this looks so wholesome and waiting between updates might kill it for me.

Thanks for the report. I see the problem now, I think. If you play for the first time, the Gallery will only have "locked" images, but the icon for the locked image is not placed properly by me (due to file location change).

But once you unlocked all the scenes, the image previews will show up instead of the error messages (maybe except for the last 2 images, but they are for future scenes in the next update).

I'm sorry for this inconvenience.
No worries, I'll fix this in a future update!
Thanks so much for reporting!
And please don't hesitate to report if you see any more issues! Enjoy the VN!

To players: Take note that if you're playing a port, or using a mod, you may encounter issues outside of my control. You can refer to the creator of the mods/ports you're using. I can only fix errors associated with the official Renpy version only. Thanks for your understanding.

I'm really sorry about the time between updates. I try my best to update between 3-4 months.
Fortunately, Chapter 3 major updates were 2 months in between.

That said, I cannot guarantee a quick update, especially when real life gets in the way.
Drawing 2D and creating multiple frame-by-frame animations take a very long time as a solo dev.

I appreciate your understanding! And don't worry, I want to complete this VN, then create another one.
In the meantime, you can try my previous VN, Ep 1 Friendly Favours! <3

I understand the difficulty in pushing out quick updates considering the quality of your first game, hence why I've been following these game since it's first release. I will surely play the game when it's completed and buy it on steam if you ever release it there. Keep up the good work!

Thank you! I am considering heavily on releasing it to Steam. This VN series is underfunded and has burned a large hole in my wallet and a lot of effort in the past 2 years, so Steam is a big possibility to keep it alive.

Thankfully the supporters I have on Patreon/Subscribestar are very wholesome and supportive people, and I do love doing this and want to keep the lights on in Heart City.

So far I have received a lot of requests to release it on Steam, too. Your kind words and interest mean a lot!
