I've been following this game for the longest time, I believe during the kick-starter event. Even though I wasn't able to put money in at the time, I've been following the progress and have been looking forward to the game updates every month. It looks like a very nice game, with wonderful art style and game elements yet to come. I'm really looking forward to for a release date and will wait many more years if it so pleases. Artistry and masterpieces takes time.  

I'm impressed and inspired by the improvement made from the years as well as the transparency from the monthly updates from the devs. 

so i've been keeping up with the development of the game for a while and i'm always checking in for updates and i just wanted to say i'm so excited for the full game to release! i fell in love with the demo and prologue and have been excitedly awaiting more content ever since. of course there's no rush at all and its important to take your time, just thought i'd show my support. will definitely be one of the first to play when the full game releases!

Hello, what's the difference between the prologue and the demo, do i download both? 

edit: one more thing, is b a boy or girl? if thats ok

Oh my gosh i played the demo for this game forever ago and I JUST checked back in. The art looks so amazing, even just for this little info screen! I'm so excited to finally see the game finished and get to play it. Keep working hard devs!! 

aaaaaaaaaaa when

i just downloaded a bunch of games randomly including this one and didnt read anything before playing them and thought B was a boy through like half the playthrough 

which one will release first GTA VI or Tomorrow Will Be Dying. place your bets yall.

when opening it on mac, instead of giving the regular warning saying it might be dangerous, it says it definitely WILL damage my computer. is this what everyone else sees?

i cant wait for the full release.. i love this game, story, art, n characters so muchh !! 

Hi! I played the old version as well as the new version and if ur not looking for feedback you don't have to read this. But I thought I would share just in case :D
Take this with a grain of salt though, I have no idea what your vision for this project is

First off I love and adore the art style and the whole concept of the game, I really enjoy the aesthetic and will like probably pay for it when it comes out fully!!! I do like the calmer pastel palette better the old version, but the new version is like just as good :D

The new version is quite a bit of reading. There's a lot of text that isn't dialogue that feels like it could be accomplished with just a sprite/expression change. And it goes into so much detail, I feel like I am being bombarded with paragraphs first thing. Having the name on top of the dialog box and also saying "Eri said" seems redundant., I just feel a lot of potential comes from sprite/expression changes, conveying things through art but it feels criminally underused. The new version feels like I'm reading a book, while the old version felt like I was actively being B. :D

The prologue is not bad, but I hope the actual game will be more interactive like the demo. Also idk if the UI is just like this in the prologue, but it feels very boxy and stoic, and overall the game feels more harsh than the old version but again I'm don't know what your vision is :D

I mean these words in the kindest way possible!!! theres like smaller very tiny issues too but i'll save you the reading -_-. Good luck on the game! Might donate to the kickstarter if my boss ever decides to pay me >:P...    But yeah amazing game so far!!!!!! I hope this did not come across as unwarranted or rude.

Hello, there seems to be a problem when I download the game. It says that the compressed zip folder is invalid. Tried downloading the prologue and the demo and still can play :( What do i do? I really want to play this :(

So should I play the prologue first or the Demo?

ahh i had this game buried in my bookmarks for a while until i checked up on it and realized the prologue was out just now 😭 can i just say that the game looks absolutely amazing so far?? the art and storytelling is done so well and every click through the dialogue had me pausing just to stare at the art every three seconds. i'm so excited for the full release,, keep up the good work devs!! ❤❤ 

Will this game be sold on Steam？
One more thing, quickly release the full version。
Ahhhhhh！

when is the releaseee?😞

team robo fr giving us the cyber punk release treatment

Im late but this update is cool and neat and brought a smile on my face. Since school is stressing me out nowadays, i need a break and your game restored me back to full HP. Keep up the good work, devs!!!

Hello, this must have probably already been asked, but I wanted to know if there will be translations into other languages such as French? 😣

how much will the game be

Holy!! i can't believe its been three years since my last comment and look at how far we've come!! coming from the legacy demo and seeing the improvements on, well, everything, including some of the CGs (the sunflower field one to be incredibly specific), in the new trailer filled me with so much joy.

the prologue was absolutely stunning- from the UI, to the music, to the art!! i really enjoyed the shift in perspective especially. getting a sort of third party view of B and her crew before we delve deeper into their dynamics and the reasoning for the groups falling out in the full release. i think it was a good way to give us a little taste without revealing too much and leaving the mystery for us to discover later. with the added bonus of adding a new lovable character (that i already wish to see more of :3) to your already stacked cast. ahh,, it makes me all the more excited for the game to finally be in my grabby little hands. i am certain the wait will be worth it!

hope you all at TeamRobo are doing well and taking care of yourselves always <33 take all the time you need,, we'll be waiting patiently to play the game that you all are proud of.

why is the proloug so different from the legacy  demo

full game when

I'm so excited for its release!! But i want to ask something, Would there be any romance? like, Can we choice to romance one of the characters?

what ancient sorcery did y'all use to create something as perfect as the character of Sakai Ei???

I saw that on the steam page it said that it won't work on MacOS 10.15 Catalina or above, can I still play it or would I have to find some other way of doing so?

So far I love this game already. I can't wait for the full release!

I'm not done all the way but I love this game already! B/Shion's really relatable to me honestly and I love A/Ei so much. I'm excited for the full release! Though, I don't if it's just a me issue or other people have already brought into the attention but game crashes a lot for visual reasons and if no one did, I wanted to tell before the full release so it can be worked on!

im super excited for this game!! one question though, will there be a steam version for this game?

Hello Team Robo!

I have been following the production of this game for roughly 3 years now, and I am so excited that we are almost to the end! This story has been a source of comfort for me for a while. I am so glad to have been on this journey with you.

This brings me to my difficulties with booting up the prologue. I think I managed to bypass the quarantine, but I have a secondary message that states that I do not have the permission necessary to open the application. I looked up various resources, and tried various commands in the terminal to open it up to no avail. This may be a personal issue, given that there are so many documented solutions to this problem, but I just wanted to bring it to your attention!

Best of luck with the game release! I can't wait.

Ah, I really want to play the prologue, but for some reason, I can't find the game file in the ZIP folder? I have a Mac, and when I open the ZIP folder, I go to: Tomorrow Will Be Dying -> Contents -> Mac OS -> Mac Runner. The Mac Runner is just an empty file and nothing runs when I double click it. My Mac is fairly old, and I've had difficulty updating the software. Could that possibly be the reason I can't run the game? I'm sorry if that was confusing, I still don't know all the right jargon to describe game files.

I've been looking forward to this game since the Kickstarter and am very excited to see its progress! I absolutely love the art and direction, and wherever the game is going to go, I’m in. That being said, I have some concerns after playing the Prologue (I didn't play the previous Legacy demo so I will be solely focusing on the Prologue demo):

Firstly, without paragraph indents, spacings, or breaks to ease the eye, the written lines accumulate into an unwieldy chunk of text in each text box, hindering the reading experience. I enjoy story-heavy and text-based games tremendously, but the clumping of long lines makes the words difficult to follow and digest. With each click revealing a line that adds to the preceding bulk of text, the eye feels like it is weighed down without enough space to rest. I can tell the effort that went into the writing to provide immersive descriptions, but the presentation of the text box UI works against it. 

Perhaps each new paragraph can be indented like a regular book format, or blocks of paragraphs can be spaced out more, or more padding can be added to the text box UI, anything that can direct the eye better. Having long lines in a text box is fine, but it is more about creating a certain rhythm and pacing of reading with the form of the text. 

Another concern is the use of opacity to differentiate between the dialogue and action lines. I understand using this approach to distinguish between dialogue and action and give them some flavour, but as the opacity of the action lines was too faded, over time my eyes were strained in trying to see them. The shift in opacity between dialogue and action text becomes more jarring and distracting than fluid, I could read the dialogue more clearly simply because they were more opaque than the action lines, and it felt like a test on my eyesight sometimes haha… 

This is also not to say that opacity on text shouldn’t be used, but it should be used for effect. Lower text opacity can, for instance, give the feeling of quiet and distance. It makes sense when there was a “new voice” speaking, such that the translucent text aptly feels like it came from somewhere distant, or when someone is trailing off, and so on. But otherwise, to use it throughout the story in normal situations, the effect feels out of place. When combined with the aforementioned clumping of words in a single text box, reading overall became quite strenuous. Even if the text effect and UI remain as a stylistic choice, perhaps there can be an option to consistently darken all the text for better visual accessibility. 

Another side note would be to have clearer button feedback, such as giving a brighter highlight when hovering over a clickable button in the main menu, or even a sound effect. Such interactions can better inform the player of their input as well as give the game more ‘life’ as it responds to the player. 

On the narrative side, I find the prologue to be an interesting direction in setting up the main story, though I’m left with a bit of mixed feelings. This is mostly because the prologue is a small piece of the whole pie so I can’t judge the whole yet, but then again it’s also the beginning piece that frames the rest of the pie and sets up expectations. I enjoy the use of outsider perspective in stories and it is great to see how Eri develops apart from the main narrative, realistically showcasing how the threads of one person’s life can be both entangled with and stray from another, all while building up the main characters. The ending of the prologue provides intrigue as Eri’s tiny arc ends while the main characters’ concurrent stories are yet to be explored. 

While I enjoy this narrative approach for the prologue, I wished for a little more hinting at the main narrative and characters. When interesting tidbits regarding what happened to the main characters apart from Eri’s narrative were dropped at the end, the narration swept by it and continued to march on towards Eri’s conclusion. For instance, rumours that Sakai threatened Ashikaga with a knife? That sounds both badass and distressing! But for something that holds much emotional weight, the game brushes over it, circling its trajectory back to Eri, seemingly in haste to wrap up Eri’s story. While I like that the prologue didn’t overstay its due, there wasn’t exactly a strong sense of what the main narrative is about, and I left the prologue feeling like I know more about Eri and her small journey than the main characters due to how little we see of them and their conflicts (which are supposed to be the star of the game). Because it is so detached from the main narrative and self-contained, the prologue feels more like a side story than a framing of the larger story that is to come. It’s like seeds of the main narrative, conflict, and characters were planted sparingly, and then the narration pulls our attention away to focus on the growth of a distant plant. Yet again, because this is a demo, maybe the full game will be able to transition to the main characters’ perspectives and tone smoothly, and introducing Eri’s mini-story first will make sense in the overall narrative even if she may or may not appear again or be relevant to the main story. Maybe Eri would wish she had reached out to Ashikaga after all even though they had only shared small moments together, I don’t know, but I hope such opportunities for emotional impact can be expanded upon more, and I hope it works out as I believe in the team’s creative direction.

I raise these concerns because the game has great potential to play with the medium of visual novels and provide a stunning experience. The art is, as always, an extremely beautiful and eye-catching feature. Nevertheless, the ease of reading is a crucial make-or-break, especially for a heavily narrative-driven visual novel. I want to recommend this game to people, but I can also understand if they may be initially put off by the clunky appearance of the text at this point. Moreover, for a game that very much hinges on its storytelling, perhaps beta readers/testers can be used to check and ensure the quality of the narrative experience. I really hope for this game to succeed and be the best version it can be, so thank you for your hard work and all the best! :)

I remember playing the legacy demo a year or 2 ago and crying over the beautiful story telling and art, especially with the concept and vibes it gave me because it resonated with me a lot. I've fallen in love with this game and your team since then! Been keeping up with your monthly updates each time you upload and I'm so proud and excited to play the prologue and the official release! ^^ I'm sure the hard work and love you guys put into this will pay off!! 💖 I also cant wait to join the community that this may garner, and reading back on the comments ik that you said a discord server may not be made since work is busy, but hopefully in the future there will be one hehe GOOD LUCK TEAM ROBO 💖
