If the dev had just accepted his lack of experience and made his super ambitious first time project into a short VN the decent writing and quality assets could have made this a great experience, as is it's a bare bones mess of a dating sim padded fat with exploration that only serves to slow down gameplay and show the importance of appropriate scope for a project. It genuinely makes me wonder if this was a scam since you get so little with the promise of so much for 20 USD, which is after a Kickstarter that raised 10k.
