I just came by to say I finally did a full replay (after playing however many years ago, before secret route); and I’m so glad I did. I still very much love this game. I also noticed that Peter has a cameo in that one CG, and that made me giggle. Thomas and Peter routes, when? Hahaha. But seriously, still love this game so much.
Sidenote: For those debating play-order your first-play-through, I recommend sticking with the recommended route-order included (Endings’ Walkthrough); as that’s the best way to have lead-ins, foreshadowing, connections, etc. I messed with the order this time around, and even did bad-ends first, and I definitely noticed some lead-ins weren’t as effective that way. So, definitely stick with the recommended route-order!
Ahh, again, I cannot get enough of these guys! I love them all! But now I need to find me a real-life Lawrence, pronto. Though, I won’t complain about a Ray, either.
Thank goodness to see these devs finally asking to be compensated for work. After offering a game you've crunched on and updated for and people have played for free for years, moving into monetization in order to afford furthering your careers as devs seems fitting.
AS a gamer and a developer I am saddened that there are still mindsets that asking for money for our works should be entitled to the approval of gamers when and if at their discretion.
If a game transitions from a pay what you want model to a set price, that is not a crime and should not be treated as such.
The game itself was a lot of fun and the routes all tie in nicely to one another. I liked the route for Leonard the most and was shocked that I liked grumpy Lawrence, as thr grumpy older guy is rarely my type.
I've paid 50+USD for mainstream games that didn't make me happy. That had bland storytelling and very little thought to relatability and character growth. This game ticked both of those boxes for me and really was refreshing.
The game may not be Honeybunny's magnum opus, but it is a strong contender for games of comparable size. I think it's well worth the price.
And I thank the devs for standing up for their brand. It has encouraged me to switch over to a monetized model as well for my own works to further support indie devs respecting their hard work and efforts as well as my own.
I was surprised to suddenly see this game become paid after initially releasing for free. The devs deserve to be paid, but my main issue is the lack of transparency. I remember from the last game released, there were some comments that were surprised that the final release was not free when their previous releases were. An announcement beforehand would have solved this.
Since this happened again, I wanted to comment and sincerely ask the devs to be mindful and better communicate changes like this to their players.
We didn't see it as an issue; for us, this is something normal to happen. Of course, I agree that the choice with Teachers was very sudden, but doesn't sound like a problem to us.
However, if this is an issue, I can let you know in advance :) soon I'll write a report about why we decided to do it.
Would have been nice if the announcement came up BEFORE the price increase. I was fortunate enough to get it for "free" because I don't think I'd pay for the price that high imho.
Nothing personal but I don't make a habit of supporting devs who do shady things like this, so I guess it's time to unfollow them.
Best of luck to them and I hope they will be more transparent about issues like this in the future.
That's ok and it's your right, like I said, we didn't see it as a bad thing, but as moonlily2001 mentioned this was a problem so I'll make a post after, since there's no way to go back in time
The game was free for 2 years and we put a price with the intention of anyone who wants to support it, it doesn't mean that the game is not going to be free again.
Thank you for your gracious response. If I came across as accusatory or entitled in my earlier response, I apologize, as that was not my intention. I'm sorry that it encouraged another person to accuse you of being "shady," that was not what I wanted to happen.
To clarify, Teachers being paid was not what I disagreed with at all. If you check my profile, you can see that I purchased Death is a Guest so if the devs decided to keep Teachers as paid permanently, I support their decision. And I say this as someone who did not finish the game when it was free. Money was not my issue. When Teachers appeared as paid on my feed, I thought that the change would be received better if it was communicated ahead of time. But I admit that I should have waited longer for an announcement before making my comment, and if the devs don't have this issue, I accept that. I wanted to clear up any misunderstandings, hence the length.
On a different note, I read the latest post and appreciate the explanation. Have you considered reaching out to streamers such as Blerdy Otome to cover your game or posting on Otome reddit? I have also seen other devs who are fundraising give mutual shout-outs to their projects. That may help to get more attention on your campaign. I wish you the best of luck.
No, not at all! We didn't see any offense in your comment, and we really appreciate you letting us know what you think, after your comment we thought "oh damn... yeah we should have done that". But after that person who came out of nowhere, and caused a mess in our minds, we got very frustrated, but it’s not your fault!
hmm I see, this didn't come to our mind, it just happened that we decided from one moment to the next because it's been difficult :'D
everything is fine! and please, if something happens that bothers you, don't hesitate to tell us, what happened could have happened anyway, and I feel sorry that they used your comment to be mean to us.
We don't know everything, so saying what you think helps us improve, and from now on we will keep this in mind <3
yes yes! We contacted some streamers when we launched Death is a Guest, we received a response from some, but we're still waiting for that, so we kind of don't want to send others emails about another game.
but we will make new plans and try again! and thank you very much!! and once again, I'm sorry for what happened It wasn't fair to anyone 🙏❤️❤️❤️
AAAAA oh my god this is genuinely so good I MADE AN ACCOUNT JUST TO TYPE OUT THIS COMMENT... it's def one of my favorite games now dshufsiurhuigh the plot, the art, the characters, the EVERYTHING AAAAAA IT'S SO GOOD!!!! thank you so much for this game it's literally so good omg!! THIS GAME IS SO FIRE 10/10 :333
I need a route with Thomas ;-; I am so serious. You guys specifically mentioned he was divorced. I need to be able to romance that man. He is absolute perfection. Since I can't I will just reread Lawrence's route and whither away.
Oh my goshhhh, I just wanted to say I absolutely love this game, I got every single ending. It was a game that brought me to happy tears and sad tears, it really reached my heart. This is one of my favorite Otome's and it will always continue to be, I only downloaded this a few days ago but I finished it because its so cute!!! MARUKUS IS MY FAVORITE!!! HES SO CUTE!!! PS: I hate Eric even more for the secret ending.😭😭😭
I went into this game expecting it to be just another otome, but when I found myself hoping the devs would make Hanson jealous, I knew I was head over heels, losing track of time and any hope left in my little bleeding heart. I loved this game.
edit: I played all the routes and the secret ending and it's SO CUTE, I love this game

This game is well made. The story was intriguing. I played every route in a few days.

Thank you!! that is very sweet of you! fhuidshgifs omg!! ❤️💕😭🥰
your words mean a lot to us fhgofhfioa so thank you so much!! <33 ToT
Is the android version accessible for the blind?
The accessibility is working fine on the PC build, but now that you mention it, I'm not sure it is working right on the Android 👀
We are already working on some issues with the Android build for this game, so I'll make sure to check it too
Thank you so much for mentioning it. We work mostly with Windows build, so sometimes we miss these important issues with Android.
I didn't see any option to tturn on the accessibility. Of course that'll be very useful thanks! ❤️😎
Faz uma rota com o Eric, por favor! Eu preciso disso! 😭
I need a route with Thomas ;-; I am so serious. You guys specifically mentioned he was divorced. I need to be able to romance that man. He is absolute perfection. Since I can't I will just reread Lawrence's route and whither away.
