good lord, it's been such a long time since i thought to check in on this game, and for some reason I'm not at all suprised that Toru has been MIA for almost three years now. Last time I checked in on him, hongfire was still around. I almost dont want it to release at this point; Just let it exist as a mythical unicorn game to always look up to. Honestly, at this point otome function (If it ever releases) will probably have rather dated mechanics and gameplay compared to more modern releases. Toru's art is what has really carried hizashi for all of these years in my opinion. I wonder if he worked himself and/or his pc into the grave trying to port it to unity or something due to flash end of life.
