Hm, could be wrong, but Ayane's watch seems to suggest it is 7:23. (Maybe 7:22, but 23 seems more fitting)

Considering Matthew is a character, and Matthew 7:23 has Jesus saying "And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’" (or whatever variation you use)

This might be quite an interesting event. I've wondered if Tsuneyo may have some relation to Jesus for a while.

Edit: Of course there are multiple 7:23s, so it could be referring to a different one.

I agree there, I looked at the number, and 23 and I feel it is intentional for the lore Lil, and even 7 is an important biblical number, but with Matthew, you overthink a lot there,
Maybe you don't know the context, the reason that Matthew as an extra-character exists comes from how people made theories about him because that specific name was heard on an audio track, being a mistake by Selebus, in the end it was made so famous in the community that he ended up having a Cameo. If I remember well being at Sara's Bar

Probably, like I said, there's other 7:23s.

Matthew just originally showed up in an Event that featured Tsuneyo leading it 'Chashu (A Cracked Bowl)' in Chapter 2, and showed up last update in Sana's 'Stutter-Step' event in Chapter 4:

It was the first to come to mind.

Of course, Genesis 7:23 could work too, especially if this is during a reset. Sensei (or Ayane) could be Noah, and the Ark could be the rooftop or something.

Or it's just a random 23 thing that is more or less just an easter egg that doesn't mean much.

I'm leaning as you say towards an easter egg, but if I had to choose a 7:23, definitely applicable to Lil in general. I would say Mark 7:23

and well we know that there was a 22 in Lil before...

I'm bored... no point cycling through the usual recommendations rigamarole, let's try this, name the most recent game (say, 6 months or less) you played for the first time that totally activated your almonds.

I've tried so many KK games over the last year or so and it's such a piss off that I've been spoiled by this stupid game. Not only is Selebus a very good writer, but literally 99% of the other games on here are just so poorly written to the point that I barely look out for games.

https://f95zone.to/threads/the-null-hypothesis-v0-3c-ron-chon.138294/post-12777632 this is a fun inspiration game that I found was worth the time, however

Most of the KK games here have the added problem that the creators put the bare minimum into the art style. So many KK games are atrociously ugly.

Not into racing at all but that second game looks worth investigating. Cheers.

Yeah it's really hard to find harem games that don't have the shittiest writing and 95% of non harem games are an automatic miss for me for this or that reason. This game however is out cause i dislike parodies or fanfiction of established media, just does nothing for me. Thanks though.

Interesting, So, remake/complete Nothing is Beatiful after lil then.

BTW, Bingoogus, have you tried Lost in You yet?

Ah, yes, i liked it enough to keep going with it but it still has a distance to go before i'd say i'm an actual fan. If i had to pull out one thing from it that has definitely stuck with me though, it'd be DONUT.

This is one of my other issues with games on this site - if they're a halfway decent game, then it's got a good chance of being some sort of LiL clone. There are other games to crib from, damnit. I don't want to play not-as-good-LiL-clone #304 every week (even if I do find myself enjoying some of them)

This isn't an attack on you by the way, JelF, or anyone else that happens to like those games. It just bugs me a little that most games that seem interesting to me end up being a LiL clone

If a game generates a large audience, it's gonna get copied.

The fact that the dev has become a pariah on this site and the game is no longer promoted means that people who are hungry for exactly this and look on the most-recent page are more likely to find the clones than they are to find the real thing, and opportunists are going to jump on that.

this game started great but turned into shitburger. I can't even follow the story anymore

Really? Now that a lot of questions have finally been getting answered, I'm able to follow the story a lot easier now. I have a vague understanding of what's going on compared to the beginning where things mostly seemed random.

Ok, finished my first playthrough. I'm kinda curious what you guys think about what the ending will be. On the one hand, any sort of development the MC has will ultimately still be overshadowed by the fact that he's a pedophile and committing statutory rape if he gets with any of the high school (or younger!!!) girls. On the other hand, no one is gonna accept a reset of everyone's relationships back to zero.

I'm placing my bet that Akira's real name is Radahn, his mind has already rotten away, but somehow he is holding the stars in place. And the true end is him dying and the stars being freed, and somehow the gods whimsically bring him back to live his teenage dreams.

Akira dies and the time loop ends. The story feels like a weird dream to the other characters, but the experience helps them grow stronger and move past their issues. I'm split on whether Maya also dies in order to stay with Akira, or if she manages to grow up and live a normal life without him.

That'd be pretty bittersweet and even still it's probably more hopeful than I should be expecting from this game.
