This is amazing!! for a demo its already so good! I love the visuals and the plot is well written, so far my favorite is Anthony!! Love it so far keep up the good work!!
ps: is there anyway to increase Anthony's threat level? huhu or will that only be available in the complete game? im excited for the full game ! ^^
Letâs just say Anthonyâs route will be really interesting haha
I love this! The art is absolutely cute and the boys are great. I'm excited to see the rest hehe
I loved playing! It seems like a great game and it seems like it'll be even more great when the full game comes it. It seems really good so far though, I'm hooked!
i lovelove this although i haven't finished it yetđ„č PLEASE tell me cal will be romanceable he is SO fine
Only if the stretch goal on kickstarter gets hit!
this is so cool, can't wait till the whole game is finished :D
I thought Cal was a love interest... sigh.
Um how do I follow you?
Sorry, what do you mean? If you want to find us on TikTok, Twitter, Tumblr all the links are above and you can search âComfort Kuma studiosâ
Oh my God, thank you so much for replying. I just got a little confused cuz I couldn't find the place to follow you on itch. I found it though âșïž (I've never responded by a Creator so this is just a big moment)
Just finished the demo and absolutely loved it! I was just wondering if Cal will be a love interest at some point? <3
Heâs a stretch goal on our kickstarter, if that isnât met he wouldnât be a love interest
Just had a thought, what about instead of choosing none of them, you get a chance of unlocking the MYSTERY PERSON oooooo... Or, if you mess that up you can have a happy aroace life..? Ehhhhh???
will cal be a love interest or is he already one?
heâs a stretch goal on our kickstarter
Rylee is genuinely my favorite character and the only character I really like. I think it's just the glasses...I love people with glasses. And oh my days his route is making me squeel I need him bad.
The art is really pretty!! It's unfortunate that I can't I play it on my phone tho
We are working on an Android build now~
Woah, that was fast!
Strange i play it on my phone for free all the time
Android is out now !
THIS WAS SO GOOD pls finish the game someday
The full game is releasing in 2027!
The game is really fun, I wish the demo would show more on what happens with the other routes like it did with Milo's.
My complaint is how the mc is the type who would scream from a singular sound of a water drop, and ignores Milo's messages or straight up not replying to any text messages mc gets is a bit odd because most people would try to get a reply back if it's important and would bring it up irl.
It also bugs me. As someone who literally can't leave people on open, it irritates a part of me sooo badly.
I love Milo, please don't water him down everđđ Me and that childhood friend trope is like milk and cookies.
WHOAA I played the demo last year and almost didnât recognize the game with the new art!! Everyone looking gorgeous!…Well actually the MC I have slight issue with tbh (Iâm assuming the customization at the beginning is for the MC???), Iâd like to play as a woman but all the customization options make them look like a man/pretty boy đ„č And the palest pale tone is straight up grey??? I hope the final product can let me live my pastel girl x goth boy fantasy with Anthony đđ»đđ»đđ»
I thiink the greyish tone is probably intentional since it extends to all of the other ones. At first, I was upset when I was looking at the darker tones and saw that they were grey, but then I looked at the paler ones and realised that maybe their intent is to make poor mc look like they're going through it and matching it to their situation (speak for yourself mc, I'm loving it)đ„č Personally, I just wish there were more curly hairstyles equal to the straight ones.
Gosh yeah, and I think remember all the bangs being straight but only one back hair being wavy? And theyâre mostly very short, I mean, I have short hair irl but I like my otome MCs to present a bit different from me a lot of the time ^^;;
So far I only saw the customization come into play during one scene. I wonder if they plan to do more with it in the final product. Iâm so fucking obsessed with Anthony itâs not even funny but the other two arenât my style, so I canât decide if itâs worth it to get the full game rip đ€§
Customisation will def be extended when the full game releases <3 There will be many, many more options.
No I agree like the art style is gorgeous don't get me wrong but I wish the skin tones, especially the darker ones, weren't so grey :/
im guessing the grayish hair is caused by them putting the colour on multiply over the layer w/ the hairs shading, although it may just be intentional! (just a guess from a random digital artist on the internet!)
at least i think you were talking abt the hair?
the art and design are gorgeous, but the MC is kinda annoying (and stupid). I usually have no problem with MCs with established personality/background but man
We'll prolly get more options in later installments. Bc mc mi fwen, why are you so squirmish when you can just melt into your best friend's arms? Like please stop avoiding milo and leaving the man on readđđđ You're gonna get us wiped out
The voicelines just randomly stopped and its so confusing... and ive closed the game and reopened it, ive also turned off the sound and turned it back on, can anyone help?? btw this has happened on the steam ver. and the itch ver.
For right now the game is only fully voiced up until you choose a route, sorry for the confusion! The rest of voice acting for the demo will be added in a update soon!
thank u!! this is such a good game too bad I can't get it from stream, can you maybe consider putting a little more in the demo? you don't have to, you guys do what you do, your all doing amazing, this is a great game, I love it, thank u so much and keep it up!
i LOVE this game sm!!!! so excited for full game, also will the full game cost money? if yes do you know how much?
USD 15! You can get the Steam key on our Kickstarter for when the full game releases next year <3
The voices sound too low :c
This is an issue we're working on fixing!
Alguma possibilidade de ter tradução portuguĂȘs do Brasil?
Not planned yet, but it may be possible.
Estara para Android?? đŁïžâ„ïž
Yes! Soon
Android out now
love this gameeee
Who did the voice acting for Cal?
alou devera
milo c'mere dada.
LO AME!!
estara en español¿¿¿
Yes, soon đ
love the demo omg :D gotta admit anthony is a fan favorite for a reason, definitely love the motorcycle guy vibes.
would there ever be a poly route with 2 or all of the guys? đ«Ł don't mind me, just hoping i could have all my mans at once xD
so excited for the full game!!!
A harem route is a stretch goal on our Kickstarter right now! I'm glad you enjoyed the game <3
I can't wait for Cal's route!
Lovely art for the game! I'm a little confused about the story... is there a reason why the characters change their personalities when you pick them? Well, I guess I can overlook Anthony being more talkative and Rylee going yandere cause it makes sense for the story. Milo was such a drastic change that I could almost consider him a new character... Is it the app that's making them go a little cuckoo? Not trying to hate on the story, I feel like the change happens out of nowhere when you select a character route, making it a bit jarring.
Ahh!! Yes, youâre right about the app, it definitely plays a role! But the story actually begins right when both Milo and Rylee hit their breaking point, so youâre seeing them at their unstable form from the moment you pick their routes. Itâs especially noticeable with Milo since heâs known MC for so long, so MC ghosting him and all that just makes things spiral even more. There will be much more answers in the full game too.
Hope that clears things up a bit đ
MC avoiding Milo the goat hurts me more than it hurts himđ
milo i want u so bad
omg literally hes so fine
Ommgg this game is soo good you ate with this game :D
Lol was not expecting to just be so âblown-offâ if yk what I mean
AMĂ LA DEMO estĂĄ increĂble. El diseño de los tres estĂĄn hermosos, muy guapos + Cal que tambiĂ©n estĂĄ bien guapo. OjalĂĄ hagan una ruta poliamorosa o algo asĂ jaja no me puedo decidir por alguno
this was genuinely so fun to play, i love anthony a lot yo
anthony is deffo my fav of the three, plus he likes cats so thats a huge pluspoint (unlike some certain red haired guy....) /lh
LOVE this game tho will deffo be back for the full version :3
