    I'm going to be very blunt, I'm disappointed. The game had an interesting premise with a lot of potential, but it ultimately didn't achieve anything. No matter what you're looking for, you won't find it.

    The game is supposed to be a metafiction of Tamagotchi, going for some very thought-provoking existential horror about the nature of virtual pets and how nothing that you do matters. Honestly, as much as I enjoy metafiction, this one is just meta for the sake of being meta. It doesn't convey any message or offer anything worthwhile.

    First of all, there are no good or even bittersweet endings. The "story" is 100% linear, and there's only misery in the end. It's frustrating to not have any control over how often I visit the green girl. I thought we could maybe unlock a better ending after unlocking all of them, but no. I'm sorry, but this game just comes off as edgy to me, the kind of game made by someone who can't jerk off to porn where the girl feels pleasure, for example. I'm not implying that this game has sexual content in any way; it doesn't. I'm simply pointing out the pointlessly sadistic nature of creating a game where the only "goal" is to torture a pet in as many different ways as possible while not even trying to convey anything. It's silly and edgy. In the end, by the game's own words, nothing matters because the green girl doesn't exist.

    I can only think of this game as a new developer just practicing some coding, 3D modeling and whatnot. That's fine. I don't care. Your first creation—be it a game, song, novel or drawing—will never be a masterpiece, but you cannot convince me that there wasn't room for something other than pointless edginess in this game. I'm a firm believer that the dev simply wanted an excuse to make an anime girl call him daddy. The in-game demon that the girl calls "daddy" is a digital representation of the dev's picture. It's a self-insert.

    As for the positive points, the girl is cute, the aesthetics are nice and there's even a pantyshot, as well as some back nudity in the shower. There is no sexual content (which I don't mind), so I'm reviewing this as a normal game. It's not good. It could be, but it's not. Unless I missed a secret ending where you can actually make the green girl happy, this game is just meh.

    From the game's Steam page: "Remember: your choices matter!"
    Shut the fuck up.

    Just boring shock and poor attempt at existential horror.
    No content.
    No H
    Not even cute, as advertised.
    No concrete end let alone a good end
    Don't even bother playing this.
    Just a 100 Mb waste of space

    Its another relic of 2015 somehow transported to 2020. It thinks the "deconstruction" of the relationship of a virtual pet will be shocking, yet most players will feel detached within 2 playthroughs and the reveal will lack impact. The graphics are nice, and some work was put in, but its just not a good game or story. The reveal feels less like an actual reveal, and more like the developer was forced to shove in a random ending becuase of time constraints, leasing to a feeling of incompleteness that does not make the player want more, but makes them feel cheated. Also, why are we posting non-h games here?
