Voted clearly "excellent" (and this is my first vote and review here at all). Beside "The Headmaster" the best game I know so far.
When I tried the game first, I canceled it after a while because of the text flood with meaningless decisions and not much progress. But luckily I gave it a second try again, and got finally into the story.
So I would suggest to put a hint in the game introduction, that players should give it it's time at the beginning.
What I like about the game is it's simplicity. It's really what you can call a visual novel I guess. Not much to interact, no decision to take on what places to go, no need to earn money (via actions) and that stuff.
Being such a real VN, what counts is the text and story. And that is very well and carefully written. A very slow burner, but steadily and consequently without distraction due to boring interactions.
I was a little bit disappointed about the birthday party, not so much as I expected (even after retrying the several decisions). But maybe there will be a next party
The story seems now (0.20) to be on a kind of breaking point, but I think it has very much potential, creativity is needed to keep it realistic somehow.
A shame that the dev has only so few patreons for such a great game.
I think clearly missing is the tag "trainer".
Good luck to the dev, keep up the great work, waiting for update!
