(+3)

(+2)

I absolutely loved this game, thank you so much for it

I did the "New friend" ending and I wanna stay on it for now. I loved the conclusion message. I can't wait for the full game <3

(+2)

EL JUEGO ES MUY BUENOO, Y EL DEMONIO DE LA PARALISIS DEL SUEÑO ES MUY TIERNO JODER LO AMO

(+2)

Okay no joke, absolutely fantastic game, I'm so excited to see where this will go! First game I've ever downloaded on itchio as well it's the first dating sim I've played with my own hands. Absolutely changed my life! not a joke, I actually started playing more games like this now! Definetly playing once the full thing comes out, will it still be free once completed? Anyhow! Keep up the good work!!

Thank you so much! That’s incredibly nice to hear. I’m really glad the game had that kind of effect on you. And to answer your question: the full version is planned as a commercial release on Steam, so it won’t be free (BUT there will be an extended demo on steam with the next monster free to play fairly soon). The price hasn’t been announced yet. Thanks again for playing and for the support.

it wont let me download the exe flie it just keeps saying "welcome, dear human(1) isnt commenly downloaded"

That’s a normal warning for new/unsigned indie game files. I think there should be a windows button like "Keep" or "Keep Anyway" to skip that. I’ll look into fixing this, thanks for reporting it!

 Sin duda una de las mejores demos que he jugado, tiene una trama interesante y buenos finales espero con ansias el juego completo

 

(+9)

(+2)

Crazy ride through and through

Eyyy! Thanks for recording your reactions!

Hi, I decided to try it. Interesting game. The creature is like a cat. A big, curious, creepy cat. Startled me a few times. I named it Twist. If i may point out a few issues? Sometimes the game froze, the text lagged or didn't load properly, and at one point it crashed. I do like the game though. I got the new friend ending. The music and art was nice, and so was the voice acting. The controls are easy and intuitive. Thanks!

(+1)

Thanks for the feedback!

(+1)

I am also having the missing .pck file problem on PC

Sorry for that. It's fixed now!

(+1)

Yee new version says missing .pck file >w<

(+1)

Sorry, its fixed now. Also the new version just included some changes to the polish translations. I'll update you all when there is new content.

(+1)

Exe file requires a .pck file which download link did not provide to my knowledge, could someone help me out on this?
:(

(+1)

Sorry, its fixed now!

(+3)

Hi, I was playing the game and it was really fun until it said to hold rmb or something to zoom in. The problem is, I Installed the android version, so I can't figure out what to do?

(+2)

Yep, you can't do that on android. Just continue playing the game, that mechanic is not needed to continue. If you're stuck at the section where you explore their body, you can blink a lot to end the night

(+1)

Thank you!

(1 edit)

This was incredibly cozy, and so much richer than I expected going in-- great work, and great art! I noticed that the demo on Steam does not have support for MacOS. Would you consider adding it in the future, or for the full game? Thank you for your time!

(1 edit) (+1)

Hi, the Steam demo is not released yet but will also have mac support once its released.
We are still working on that one and it will have much more content then the itch.io version that you can play here

(+1)

Wonderful, thank you!

(+1)

I LOVE THIS GAME SM!!!! Also, I NEED hints on how to get the scene "in the nightstand". I've tried seeing if it was just having the creature go in the nightstand, but that didn't work! Spare some hints, please🥹🥹?

Thank you! And sure: you can close the nightstand (not lock it). Try that a few times

(+1)

I tried that and it worked!!! Thanks so much for the hint :3

(+2)

wowowowow love this i love this a lot! just wishlisted it rn 

(+1)

this game is so good i love it!!!!

and also can you please tell me when you gonna release the full game? i'd really love to know that

(+8)

why bro lowkey crackable

(+2)

Very good... I haven't written a review before, but I LOVED IT! It's not the first dating sim I've played, and even though I've only been able to play the Android version (I'm not allowed to have a PC), it works perfectly fine. I wish it had a community because it's clear that quite a few people liked it. I like the name "Dewy" for the monster. Yes, it's the name from another comment, but it seems to suit our friend. Anyway, I liked the game so much that I'm doing a couple of drawings, and what I wanted to know is a little more about the monster's personality. Yes, it's clear he's easily scared, but I'd really like to know more about... him? Well :D I loved it 💖 (I don't speak English very well, so I might have a couple of spelling mistakes "-_-) ✨✨

Thank you very much! 

Well, there are quite a few people on our discord server. You can share your art there (and learn more about them)

(+3)

just looked at the steam page after being aware there will be more - PLEASE tell me i can date one of the robots please tell me i can date the robot please

(+2)

I LOVE IT SOO MUUCHHH I STARTED TO FALL IN LOVE WITH ITT HEHEHE !!

does it have a name ?? I cant wait to see more of it >__< this is such a cool vn , i love how animated it is !

(+1)

I want the Brazilian Portuguese translation so badly that I check to see if it's available every few days, haha😅

(+2)

I usually play VN's, AND THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST AND INTERACTIVE GAME I EVER SEEN!!!! It gives the creeps on my skin, and adrenaline, I even yelped on few moments. THIS is amazing,100/100. Waiting for new days:3

(+3)

I don't play a lot of dating sims I do other stuff l but this one I really liked from the story telling to the monster itself I could tell that a lot of effort went into this game and this is one of the best games I have played and I'm looking forward to the full game I love the characters I loved to draw stuff and I still do and the demon is really cute he's a silly Billy I named them Dewy from the scream franchise I'm a horror goober if your reading this Ronkad good freaking job man

(+8)

plot twist: the narrator is also a monster and you can date him

(+2)

Hii, I was playing on Android and got to the part where you have to give the creature a name, but my keyboard won't pop up even after starting a new game so now I can't progress further than to this point, is that an issue on my end or is it fixable? Because the game has been really fun and interesting to play so far, so I hope I can somehow fix this so I can continue :)

(+1)

Hi, I was able to play this game on web however when I had downloaded it before (on Mac btw) it would not run. It says the software needs to be updated and apple cannot check it?

(+1)

Thanks for letting me know! This sounds like Apple can’t verify the app. You may be able to run it by going to System Settings - > Privacy & Security after trying to open it, then clicking Open Anyway. The web version should work fine in the meantime and I'll look into this for future Mac builds. 

(1 edit) (+1)

Thank you! that worked, it just was one more step than my usual process so I didn't get it but ty!

(+2)

peak

(1 edit) (+2)

Honestly this game is so peak! ive never written a review on itch io before but i just had to speak up abt this game. the narrative is so good omg the game was surprisingly extremely qualitative. not gonna lie the demon gave me the creeps but he was actually really kind? anyway i love everything about this game i must say im surprised didnt think this would be my thing. i also love the thing about the mc being insecure and the narrator speaking about how looks are not all that important. and in a way i didnt find the demon attractive but that part made me realize what it was about. i am also surprised that its translated on so many languages if you could also add french that would be nice anywayyy cant wait for future updates and the dating aspect! keep up the good work! ill defenitely buy the full version when it eventually comes out.  :)

(+2)

Thank you very much for this comment! That means a lot to us

(+1)

Lo amo con toda mi alma pongan una ruta de novio plis💔💔💔💔

(+1)

What if it doesn’t load?

(+5)

I normaly dont leave reviews bc idk how to express myself but i just wanted to say this demo is amazing!!!! everything is so well made and I loved the monster, it was so cute and i couldn't bring myself to being mean with it. I'm so exited to meet the rest of them!!. I'm just curious, do you plan to make the full game paid? This game is soooo goood, again, this is sunch a great game and one of my favorites now :3333

(+2)

Thank you! Yes, the full game is going to be paid - BUT there will be another demo (on Steam) that has much more content and is free. Look forward to that 

(+2)

Then I will wait for the other demo :D and when the full game is out I hope I can buy it!! Can't wait for it <3 again this game is so incredible, you did an amazinf work!

(+2)

Unfortunately, when I was touring the apartment at the beginning I eventually went to the bathroom and then the screen went dark and it wouldn't let me do anything. I uninstalled the game and even deleted my save file to start fresh. Now when I open up the game, it doesn't give me anything but a black screen. I downloaded the game for context. I then went to play it on Chrome in the browser and it never loaded to play the game :'( I hope it gets resolved soon so I can play! I look forward to it!

(+1)

:(

(+3)

Ok so somehow I got the browser version to work!! The download still isn't working unfortunately. It was such a fun game absolutely loved it!! 10/10 would play again :)

(+3)

Hell yeah! Glad it worked in the end :)

(+2)

Esta demo es todo menos aburrida, amo todo!! 1000000/10 (>U<)

(+2)

This demo was amazing! The big red button to start the game was so creative! counting the sheep was my fav bit, especially the super ginormous sheep. 

(+5)

I'm so hyped for the full release I'm checking here every few days

(+2)

That's some dedication!

The full release is going to take a while though. You can wishlist the game on Steam or subscribe to the newsletter to be the first one to get the news ~

(+1)
