My favorite endings were the ones were I got a math lecture, I found the love of my life and the one I was told to pay $1.99 to get (at most) a friend...honestly 10/10 IGN dating would date again. luved dis doe XD
The Sheldon love ending kind of confused me. You stated that you only talked to him once and served coffee once. However it clearly states before hand that Sheldon came in every Saturday to talk with you on break. And there was also the indication that a quite a bit of time passed, at least a couple months or even more. That whole bit about jumping right to the love interest was actually in very poor taste, and you are right I am disappointed. Disappointed you would make such a gap in your logic. The tone that came across in your writing was very mocking and sarcastic, and it made it feel as though you created a message you did not intend to. In fact, it made the message come across the opposite of what I believe you intended. That is assuming you in fact intended for an actual message at all. Honestly I'm not sure if you just made this game to make fun of people who play dating sims or not.
That's basically the same as the Zane ending, so I think it's probably actually meant to make fun of people who play dating games, while also trying to hugbox it out. Which doesn't work when you first make fifteen kinds of assumptions about the people playing it and directly insult them and make fun of their interests. So. Kind of rude, honestly.
I don't know what games you play. Most of the dating games you play you're spending three years or several months getting to know a character before you so much as fall in love, much less get married. There are shorter stories (usually on mobile games) but it generally involves magic or other such circumstances that allow easier and quicker love. And more importantly, it's fiction. Do you walk up to a person and lecture them about how they need to get out and experience 'love' in real life when you see them watching a romcom or reading a romance? Probably not, unless you're a presumptuous dick. Do you go up to someone who plays Call of Duty or Skyrim and say "Hey, you should join the military for real" or "why not learn to be a real outdoorsman and find adventure in real life"? I bet you would not do that. Yet, somehow it's an acceptable target when it's a dating sim. It's okay that Call of Duty and Skyrim aren't realistic, that you can jump off a mountain and get shot in the chest several times and shake it off, but fall in love with some prince in thirty days?! Preposterous! You need to get a life and stop wasting it playing games!
It's absurd and it's uncalled for. How a person chooses to enjoy themselves doesn't say anything about what they do in real life. Good lord, married people play dating sims because they're fun. Or they would be, if this game didn't do its best to suck all the fun out of it that it can.
And I get it, it can be fun to poke fun at dating games (like any genre). That's why Haotoful Boyfriend is so popular. The trouble is, this game doesn't do that well. Even the author themselves state that they started to do that and then got lazy. And it shows. And when it's lazy and your reward for finishing a route is a pretentious lecture, it just comes off as rude, not funny.
I'm sure there are people who enjoy it, but to me everything I've seen in the game and by the author on their Tumblr all I see is someone who thinks playing dating games are something to be ashamed of and discouraged.
You are the moderator of the comments on this page because you own the game. That means you can edit things if necessary. Although we currently don't have a page showing who edited the post and how, we will in the future. I recommend avoiding things that would be considered abuse. https://itch.io/docs/general/community-rules
Oh wow I finally got around to watching it and I gotta say this is probably one of the softest nicest lets plays I've seen. By the way at the funny joke part if you spam click the game will continue
i KNOW you wanted to make a statement, but did you have to do it like this? i mean, i don't mind that you did it in the form of a game, but i REALLY didn't like the atitude you took in it.
It was a really super pretentious thing, and it didn't even deliver right, because it set up an actual romance and then said "Haha but actually this isn't a romance" - and then followed up with "but you know how you got the romance (that isn't a romance)? Do that in real life! (even though it won't get you a real romance somehow)". At least it could have been better if you confess instantly, instead of actually building up a relationship over months.
so in american the people make the use of term "Dating sim" for Almost all that you can have romance, and not for games like the real thing. Like a Tokimemo for example.
EXCUSE ME! I AM OUTRAGED! outraged that not everyone has gotten a change to play this game yet.
This game is FANTASTIC! The humor is so wonderful and some of the endings are so unexpected. This game had me laughing for days every time I thought about it.
i left a review too, but i guess comments are different and idk how this site works, BUT i just wanted to tell u that this is such a nice and cute game!
also it was such a nice surprise for there to be a trans character too, until now ive never found a game w a trans character tht wasnt like... fetishized or treated as a joke, so this is such a great game!! i love it!
Great job on the game! It has amazing graphics and a really cool way of interacting with the player! <3 I made a video on this game It will be a pleasure if you, @huegor checked it out :)
Is it supposed to take like five seconds to play this game? I'm not complaining, but I got two really quick, abrupt endings. Am I missing some story elements?
There are definitely more than two quick, abrupt endings. This is because there are 10 quick, abrupt endings! Except not all of them are quick and not all of them are abrupt. But yeah, keep digging! There's a lot more to do in this game than just dating the three main characters.
This is a well-done game c: Thanks for making it c:
Somehow I ended up with Sheldon instead of Zane? I got Zane's "bad" ending, but I think I missed a cue on how to get his good ending? ;3; Or was "fate" the only ending you can get with him? I kinda expected a similar ending to Sheldon
Hey there! To get Zane's ending, make sure to get everyone else's order wrong. During your break, go outside and wait for Zane to show up. After that, choose any option except "what". Good luck
not usually the biggest fan of dating sims but this one really kept my interest alive, enjoyed the characters and always a big fan of multiple ending games, also loved the humour from the narrative P.O.V
had a cheeky go for a video, hope you enjoy as much as I did playing
Hey,, i originally played this game because of the beautiful art style and out of procrastination, cause i'm human garbage and all, and i was so h*cking surprised when ( out of a moment of why the hell not ) i tried to ask Sammy to be my gf, and uh,, the talk,,, really got to me tbh, it literally went 0 to 100 so fast i caught tears in my eyes, seriously hit me in the feels. Anyways, i just wanted to say this game is fricking amazing, but i'm still going to keep on procrastinating and not clean my room :'^)
heya! Calluna is the name of the player character. Her name doesn't come up at first because the pc is supposed to be generic. When you give her a name (in this case, Calluna), she is no longer a generic protagonist, and instead becomes her own character. So yeah, the act of naming in this game is treated as discovering/evoking one's identity or individuality, which is why she was able to reclaim her character :^)
I can just tell how much effort you've put into this and how well thought out everything in- game is! The characters, the overall game mechanics, everything! Thank you for making this, it's so amazing aaa
Anyways, I don't care what the ending said, Sammy is my wife now. End of story.

Haven't played this yet, but I want the cute trans boy-
trans girl* ;;
trans girl = 'mtf'
trans boy = 'ftm'
Yeah, sorry about that;;
I didn't know she was a boy from the start, and I thought she was ftm kms
it's ok! now you know ^^
this game was a waste of my time. the characters were tacky and the "moral" doesn't hit hard at all
I completely agree. Also Holy shit apparently I can edit ppl's replies why is this site so broken
I second that.

Awesome game ! too bad i didn't end up with anyone even tried it twice lol
Happy Valentines Day, we played this dating sim and it was HILARIOUS

This is a well-done game c: Thanks for making it c:
Somehow I ended up with Sheldon instead of Zane? I got Zane's "bad" ending, but I think I missed a cue on how to get his good ending? ;3; Or was "fate" the only ending you can get with him? I kinda expected a similar ending to Sheldon
Hey there! To get Zane's ending, make sure to get everyone else's order wrong. During your break, go outside and wait for Zane to show up. After that, choose any option except "what". Good luck
Oh thank you! It somehow never occured to me to get the order's wrong XD
Thought it was actually gonna be a dating sim >.>

thanks again for making this and I look forward to your future projects :)
is this uhh, "accurate" informationif i wanted to date you in real life [im joking]
Hey,, i originally played this game because of the beautiful art style and out of procrastination, cause i'm human garbage and all, and i was so h*cking surprised when ( out of a moment of why the hell not ) i tried to ask Sammy to be my gf, and uh,, the talk,,, really got to me tbh, it literally went 0 to 100 so fast i caught tears in my eyes, seriously hit me in the feels. Anyways, i just wanted to say this game is fricking amazing, but i'm still going to keep on procrastinating and not clean my room :'^)
lol
Am I the only one who got the weird "Calluna ending", who's Calluna anyway, is that a reference?
heya! Calluna is the name of the player character. Her name doesn't come up at first because the pc is supposed to be generic. When you give her a name (in this case, Calluna), she is no longer a generic protagonist, and instead becomes her own character. So yeah, the act of naming in this game is treated as discovering/evoking one's identity or individuality, which is why she was able to reclaim her character :^)
Coolio, man!
Hey.. this game is awesome! and the narrator's dialogue is superb!
so... I made a video of this game and i have fun while playing this game!
