Woah, never thought this update would disappoint you all this much. The volume of dialog has decreased in v0.4.0 but the actual number of scenes's been increased. Thought this would make up the loss... Well, guess I was wrong.

I left the gallery like that since there are no scenes to put there. I'll do something with it in the next update. But regarding story or grammar and spelling, there's nothing much I can do about it. I'm a bad writer and English isn't my mother tongue.

I started making this game as just a hobby, to kill some time in the COVID-19 situation and I don't think this would change much in the future. But I will continue to try my best to the extent that it does not interfere with my work life.

I don't think the story are disappointed, it's just that the story are so confusing at the beginning with so many infos being dumped on players. I can feel it take some inspiration from series like Monogatari but it lack the atmosphere and soundtrack for players to truly care for the ingame story, not just that but the lack of choice make it feel more like a kinetic novel than a game and all the H scenes being cut make it feel very dry

Sorry for the question, but ... What's with the tags? Has a "vaginal", "creampie" and ect, but there is no H-scene in the game.
Second rebirth and end.

Are you also annoyed by the appearing Kuro sign?

It looks like an advertisement of Pioneer plasmas over a dozen years late ;)

This is the most Monogatari-esque presentation I have ever seen and I fucking love it.

I really hope you get where you want to go with this because this is one of the most compelling starts I've seen on this site.

Colour me curious but I read that dialogue was cut out .... why?

It's great the number of scenes increased but scenes need story to tie them together or it's just pretty pictures with no meaning.

Is the game going to be a visual novel or is it always going to be a Kinetic Novel. If there aren't relevant choices, then the game isn't likely to interest me. So I would be interested to know before downloading it.

I don't know when they thought that making changes like the ones that appear on the screen very often was a good idea, this shit makes me dizzy 1621192313292.png 1621192321810.png
