Dec. 2024

Lesbian couple pulls player's heartstrings in simple but captivating VN about love and loss Angela He's is the master of soft pastel colors, relaxing lo-fi soundtracks and stories that can take you from cute and funny to serious and tragic in a snap. If you do not have an emotional response to this, you are probably dead.

Angela He is a developer who continues to share her insights with subtlety and enlightenment. How her calmy and therapeutic mind offer an forevermore experience compiled with shades of innocence as life partakes from happiness and illness. Furthermore, it interwinds concepts with huge pays off with the lesser it has. With their pastel looking visuals addresses the given mood at each moment transitioning from joy into grief. And lastly how much of "them" is expressed rather than said. A new life is a short stroll to what life awaits for us, and what keeps us moving on the next day for the ones have gone.

There were so many reasons to love her. The way she'd kiss me good morning (always up earlier). The way she'd hug me good night. The nights when we couldn't sleep. So we shared dreams and fears we've never shared before. And she was mine.

Well, I thought I could escape the harsh reality of a wlw relationship (going crazy over a girl, having delusions, heartbreaks, or things going bad even if everything goes well...) with this game, even if it was going to be just for 1 hour. I was wrong. My eyes pissed liters of gay tears. I'm heartbroken. I'm beyong repair. EVEN FICTIONAL CHARACTERS CAN'T ESCAPE THE CURSE OF A WLW RELATIONSHIP?! Anyway, the art style is very cute. 10/10 would recommend it.

March 2024

This was an amazing experience. My heart hurts, but that's okay. This game made me want to fall in love so badly, and inspired me to finally stop waiting for a miracle and do something about it myself. Absolutely recommend.
