Thank you for making this game! It's beautifully written. I loved the different stories that came about from continuing to play it. The charcters are all so intriguing - both the ones that you play as and the ones that you meet. I want to know more about them! Chieko was the perfect "guide" on your journey and I love her sprite art :)
Also the animation was a lovely touch as well. Thank you for sharing this and well done to everyone involved!
Great game! Loved exploring each "customer's" story and finding out a little more about the diner and the mysterious stranger each time. I adored how the game just keeps growing and the friendly chat, after I thought i had seen everything, was a wonderful surprise! Even now, I'm not sure if I've seen everything😅
Awesome job, well done!
Thank you for playing! And I'm so glad you found 'that', I love those characters together, and I really want to do more with them in the future~
Had a lot of fun with this narrative adventure set in a diner (it's only a diner, right?). I didn't realize how much story I was missing until I made it to, what I thought, was the end. This game flies by as you talk with your booth companion and unravel your mysterious awakening in this strange diner. The tension is in putting together the story pieces before the waiter brings your meal (yup, that morning coffee is bringing more trouble than bubble guts). Looking forward to figuring out the rest of the story. If you're unsure feel free to check out my playthrough above.
Thank you so much for the playthrough!! I'm glad you got to show a few of the stories in here, and got to see through to the ending! There is indeed more to unravel, and your video is a great primer for what the game has to offer!
That was delightful! Honestly, at my first playthrough I was kind of confused why most of the choices seemed to go to the same conclusion. But once I noticed what was going on, I thought it was very neat and really enjoyed it. Very fitting too!
Thank you so much for sharing your project and granting me a wonderful time!
Thank you! I'm glad you saw it through (and I'm really glad you enjoyed it!)
