can somebody help me, please? I have a Mac and every time I try to open the game it says that the game is damage and can't be opened. I really want to play it do anyone know the solution?
game looks amazing so far + i love the rounded pixel art style! ive had to replay it a few times though since i can only get so far in a sitting and dont know how to save.. i tried exiting from the phone but theres no load file when i get back to the menu :( i think im just used to traditional renpy controls haha
Thank you so much for your kind words! Though, you should know we've moved to a smoother art style in the full version. (●'◡'●)
We're so sorry to hear you had to start from the beginning so many times! Just so you know, the saving is in the notebook at the top right, next to the phone. We know it's easy to miss and will make sure to address that as well.
Hi ! I am not on Mac! I downloaded the Windows choice :) Always when I open it, it shows me days in Excel, but when I open the Excel thing, I see codes and programming. I also tried copying it to another folder but there it doesn't respond at all :( I hope we can find a way for it to work!
Weird, we've never heard of the application opening Excel; sorry for the trouble! We can't seem to recreate that issue, but here are a few things to try/double-check:
When re-downloading, did you delete the old download/files from your computer? If not, try deleting them before re-downloading again.
Try running the app as administrator.
Just in case, do you have everything from the zip file in one folder? If none of the above works out, maybe a screenshot of the game's folder would help us get to the bottom of it.
The last thing would be to try it on another computer, if you had access to one.
We'll continue to look into it, please let us know how it goes! Thanks!
Oh, I hadn't realized you didn't even have an application to start! There should be a lot more files than that when you extract it. In that case, maybe it's an issue with your zip extractor? Are you using winrar? The folder should look like this screenshot.
I cannot rave about this game enough it was absolutely awesome. Even though this is only the demo it managed to touch on serious topics lightly without making unrealistic? Like all the reactions of the characters and the characters as much as we were able to see in the demo were really well written. I love the art-style and the small animations throughout the game. It's particularly lovely to see it shaping into a fleshed out story. I hope you continue with this project and release a full version! I can't wait to see what you will do in the future. :)
Wow, thank you so much for the lovely comment, that means the world to us! We're so glad you enjoyed it and we hope that the full release will live up to expectations ❤
This is one of those games that leaves you wanting more. I was disappointed when I found out this was a demo but I can wait! I LOVED this game, and I'll be excitedly waiting for the full version. I'll definitely buy the full game!
The art, characters, and scenery are just beautiful! The personalities of the characters are something else, and I find A really funny.
After I was done with the demo I felt like a hole was left in my heart. This visual novel is very interesting and the features are unique.
Thank you Team Robo for this wonderful heartwarming game. 10/10, made me smile.
Aaaa thank you for sharing such kind words <3 It's so nice to hear that the game left an impact on you and we hope you'll like the full version as well! Thanks again for playing! ✿
Omg you responded lol -- you're welcome, a review is the least I can do to support you!! \(^-^ )/ I forgot to mention that the soundtrack was outstanding but yeah!
I just can't figure out how to load the game, and when i click on my save, nothing happens? Am I doing something wrong? I really want to finish the demo asap, it's so beautiful QwQ
Thank you so much! It's pretty obtuse and in need of change, but in the main menu, once you've selected your save you actually have to click the big fancy "LOAD" word on the left side of the screen. Hopefully that's all your issue was!
Thanks for getting back to us! It seems like an isolated and rare incident; if there's any more information you can give us we'd appreciate it. Otherwise, we'll stay on the look out for similar reports/issues as we continue development.
Thank you so much! So sorry to hear you're having trouble with that. If you have everything from the downloaded rar file in your game's folder, I can't think of any reason that the sound wouldn't work... are you on PC or Mac?
Hi there! Just got notified of this, if you haven't got it yet, saving's in the Notebook! Just click the green save tab, then one of the two save buttons :>
This game is wonderful the art, the music, and the characters are all amazing. There were times were I had to stop playing to just take it all in. And throughout the whole game it just soothes the body. I hope Team Robo keeps making more games and finishes this one.
I played this game around late 2020 and I have to say that this visual novel was so touching and interesting despite it only being the demo. I was intrigued by the different things you could do during your free time in this game and absolutely love the background and character illustrations. I look forward to seeing this Visual novel completed so I can replay it again with the new scenes added!
Aaa, thank you so much for the kind words! We really hope you enjoy the full when it's released, we're revamping a lot of things including the free time! ^v^
clearly the itch.io algorithm has failed me thus far because this game is beautiful. i think it's something that a lot of people have been looking for on this site. thank you guys for the work you've put into this project :)
omg... hi !! i made an account so i could comment !! i found this game because of a moot from twitter; and im so glad that i decided to try and play it~
the art, the music, the story and the characters are all !! so !! awesome !!!!! i can tell how much love and hard work you guys poured into creating this amazing game. i just finished playing it, and i would love to suggest a few things, if possible...? ^__^
[[ spoiler warning! ]]
>> at the near end of the game, when b and c started talking about hisao and their past, there was little to no emotional impact. i hope that a full (? or sufficient? I forgot the word) backstory about their childhood would occur before reaching this point in the game… so we could understand their situation a lot better.
>> when b and n were talking to each other while pushing a’s car, it felt awkward because they were staring at each other the whole conversation HAHAHA I suggest that b maybe rests her forehead on the car on certain points. you could also avert their gazes!
>> I hope you guys tackle a and n’s lives too :0 theyre very interesting characters, and i would like to know more about them.
>> perhaps add an auto play option?
>> i think you should put an indicator on the health, stress, etc bars...? especially if it starts becoming an important aspect of the game. i thought having 0 hunger means b isnt hungry... spoiler alert i made her starve throughout the whole game ASJKFLDJ
>> not really a suggestion, but you should fix the transparent part! *photo below*
HUWAHHH im sorry if I didn’t phrase my words properly T__T im terrible with words… AND IM ALSO SORRY if the suggestions ive mentioned are actually already in the game...
good luck with developing this game!!!!! i know how difficult it is to create one... i applaud your hard work!!!!! *claps*
im gonna wait for the full release of this game ^__^ thank you for reading!!!!! :]
Wahh thank you so much for the kind comment! And thank you for the critiques on the game, we definitely agree with all of them and we've been quite critical of it ourselves for a while, so we have already changed parts of the story to hopefully add more impact and weight to the story + characters. Also yeah the UI is in quite a rough state in the demo, so we'll do our best to polish it up!
i am ashamed that i procrastinated for so long to play this masterpiece, really.
the art is breathtaking, the music is nice and calming, the story and options ( like the wallet, or how you can buy thing or go to other places, interact with the scenario in general and the little pop-ups/cutscenes ) is amazing and inovating, and the characters... *heart eyes* ... i swear that if B or N ( or whoever ) asked me to give them my soul, i would right away without thinking twice hsdjhd --
ok, ok, what i meant to say is that they're wonderful. B' story/past seems so interesting, as well the other characters'.
this game is number one not only in my fav games list, but in my heart as well :"""0 <3
sorry for the long comment !! :") and congrats for the sensational work !!!1
i played this last year and i always play it again because its never bored me, i enjoy it every time because all the characters are so sweet and the bg music just puts you in the mood. I cant wait for the full release... everything about this game is amazing. If you haven't played it yet, PLAY IT NOW -or you'll hit your toe on something hard or you'll step dog poop...
I'm so lucky I stumbled upon this gem! Finished the demo right now and I'm very excited for the release! Most definitely will be buying. I've already recommended this game I'm absolutely charmed! The art style is lovely and the game itself is intriguing, and the characters interesting and relatable. Good luck to the team! And if you're reading this I recommend checking this game out for sure!
We really appreciate you checking it out! Thank you so much for the lovely words and recommendations — we'll do our very best to fulfill expectations! 💕
that's pretty comum actually, normally they do this for people relate more easily to the characters (make u fell like you are A or C) ... but the characters have too much personality for that... (glad that is just a "feature")
i absolutely loved this game, its so pretty and everything just fits, the music , the visuals and the story go together perfectly
i was wondering who made the music, or if you know any songs/artist that sound somewhat the same bc i rly enjoyed the vibe of the music (especially the song that plays on the start screen)
thank you so much, it rly is a wonderful game and i hope to buy the full version in the future, stay safe <3
is she actually a girl? other characters refer to her with masculine pronouns most of the time though she looks androgynous (no offense i am just very curious i have not finished the playthrough yet so if there are any reasons in the demo that i have not seen then oh no)
No worries! B's a girl, but other characters upon first meeting her assume she's a man based off her appearance. She just never bothers to correct anyone ^^
oh thank you for clarifying! :)) I'm loving the game and art so much so far and I think I might be midways through it if not a little further,,,, thank you for this awesome interactive story 🤝
so I have been trying to play the game and for some reason after I unzip and go into the game my macOS says that its damaged and can't be opened and tells me to move it into the trash, i also tried overriding the security settings and it still say the same thing. i have no clue why this is happening
Hi Voltex! This is a known issue with the Mac version that we unfortunately can't do anything about, at least that we know of right now. Did you try the instructions found here?
Thank you so much for helping me, i followed through the article and it fixed the problem, now I am excited to play the game and again thank you so much!

When the game fully releases, what platforms will it be on to buy? Wondering if it will be on Steam.
We do have plans to release on Steam as well as Itch! Right now those are the only two platforms. Thanks for asking! (●'◡'●)
can somebody help me, please? I have a Mac and every time I try to open the game it says that the game is damage and can't be opened. I really want to play it do anyone know the solution?
Hi! You'll find the instructions on how to bypass that at this link:
https://help.yoyogames.com/hc/en-us/articles/216753558-Mac-app-damaged-when-downloaded-from-the-internet
Hope that helps!
It worked perfectly, thank u so much!!!! <33333

I tried to downland this game 3 times, but still, it doesn't work when I open it :( any tips? I would really love to play this game.
Hi, there! First, are you on PC or Mac? If on Mac, we've got one idea on why it wouldn't open up, but if on PC it'll be a little tougher. (^///^)
Hi ! I am not on Mac! I downloaded the Windows choice :) Always when I open it, it shows me days in Excel, but when I open the Excel thing, I see codes and programming. I also tried copying it to another folder but there it doesn't respond at all :( I hope we can find a way for it to work!
Thank u for ur response! I appreciate it!

this is my comfort game and I can wait for the full release :)
side question: I don't wanna sound ignorant or anything but just really curious to know if B was born a female?
We're so happy you feel that way about our game, thank you so much! And yes, B is biologically female ^^
of course :) and thank you for the clarification!
im so excited for the full release. this easily entered my top 3 favs this was amazing
That's so nice, thank you! Hope it lives up to your expectations! 🥰
I love this game! Can't wait for the full release!
Thank you! <'33

is this game gonna have any romance options i wouldnt mind if so
There won't be any, sorry! ^^;
is B a girl,boy or non-binary?? im kinda confused sorry :)
No worries, we get that a lot. B's a girl!
This is one of those games that leaves you wanting more. I was disappointed when I found out this was a demo but I can wait! I LOVED this game, and I'll be excitedly waiting for the full version. I'll definitely buy the full game!

Omg you responded lol -- you're welcome, a review is the least I can do to support you!! \(^-^ )/ I forgot to mention that the soundtrack was outstanding but yeah!
I loved the game so far, but I wasn't able to load my file? Could any of you help?
Uh oh! Is it that you can't figure out how to load or is it that when you load something happens, like a crash or error?
I just can't figure out how to load the game, and when i click on my save, nothing happens? Am I doing something wrong? I really want to finish the demo asap, it's so beautiful QwQ
Thank you so much! It's pretty obtuse and in need of change, but in the main menu, once you've selected your save you actually have to click the big fancy "LOAD" word on the left side of the screen. Hopefully that's all your issue was!
uhm the game kicked me twice and i had to restart all over again twice
We're so sorry about that! Was there an error message? Was it at the same spot in the game each time?
it wasnt at the same spot
Thanks for getting back to us! It seems like an isolated and rare incident; if there's any more information you can give us we'd appreciate it. Otherwise, we'll stay on the look out for similar reports/issues as we continue development.
it worked now it was a great game i didnt expect to see A when i did lol great game
Thank goodness! And thank you so much, we're very glad you enjoyed it <3
hello! first i would like to say that the game is so cute and cool!!!! i'm looking forward for the full version of it!
btw, i'm having trouble with audio i guess? because there's no sound for the game at all. is there anything i should do?
Thank you so much! So sorry to hear you're having trouble with that. If you have everything from the downloaded rar file in your game's folder, I can't think of any reason that the sound wouldn't work... are you on PC or Mac?
Sorry i just replied... I'm using PC
First things first: is the sound on in the settings in-game?
If that's not it, maybe a re-install/download will do the trick (again, making sure all the files from the rar are in the same folder).
Outside of that, I'm not sure what else it might be or what we could do :/
Okay then. I'll try them out first. Thanks for the help!
this game is so cute! i love the art and i can't for more 100% play this game RN!!
yay, so glad you ended up liking it! thank you so much for the kind words! <'33
i may or may not be fangirling rn
have do you save? i didn't know how to do it and now i have to resart the game
nvm i got it (:
i don't got it please help me :(
Hi there! Just got notified of this, if you haven't got it yet, saving's in the Notebook! Just click the green save tab, then one of the two save buttons :>
This game is wonderful the art, the music, and the characters are all amazing. There were times were I had to stop playing to just take it all in. And throughout the whole game it just soothes the body. I hope Team Robo keeps making more games and finishes this one.
AW, that's SO kind of you to say; thank you! We're really happy that it managed to provide some relaxation as well <3<3
I love this :) the graphics ,everything..i'm a big fan of horror stuff ..and this had a little bit of spirit in it :)) sorry for my accent
Aaa thank you so much for playing our game, we're happy you're enjoying it so far! <'33

u guys will be naming the characters(A, B, C) ? Also lovede the demo <3
Why no? Sounds kind of interesting and unique
that's pretty comum actually, normally they do this for people relate more easily to the characters (make u fell like you are A or C) ... but the characters have too much personality for that... (glad that is just a "feature")
Thanks for playing, we're so glad you liked it <3 The characters are purposely named after letters for story-ish(?) reasons!
oh i see, can't wait 4 the full release !!
i absolutely loved this game, its so pretty and everything just fits, the music , the visuals and the story go together perfectly
i was wondering who made the music, or if you know any songs/artist that sound somewhat the same bc i rly enjoyed the vibe of the music (especially the song that plays on the start screen)
thank you so much, it rly is a wonderful game and i hope to buy the full version in the future, stay safe <3
Aaa thank you so much for your lovely comment! The composer, who goes by AlwaysPolite, is one of two devs on the team (who also programs and writes!)
We can't really think of any one song or artist since we cover so many genres and have so many different inspirations.
alright, thank you! they did an awesome job , props to them
i'll stay on the lookout for your team's work :)))
oh man just finished the game :cries: awesome visual novel i will now start crying wow this is awesome
So glad you ended up liking it! <3
is she actually a girl? other characters refer to her with masculine pronouns most of the time though she looks androgynous (no offense i am just very curious i have not finished the playthrough yet so if there are any reasons in the demo that i have not seen then oh no)

so I have been trying to play the game and for some reason after I unzip and go into the game my macOS says that its damaged and can't be opened and tells me to move it into the trash, i also tried overriding the security settings and it still say the same thing. i have no clue why this is happening
Hi Voltex! This is a known issue with the Mac version that we unfortunately can't do anything about, at least that we know of right now. Did you try the instructions found here?
https://help.yoyogames.com/hc/en-us/articles/216753558-Mac-app-damaged-when-down.
That should bypass the problem. Let us know!
Thank you so much for helping me, i followed through the article and it fixed the problem, now I am excited to play the game and again thank you so much!
We're glad it worked out! We hope you end up liking it after having to work around all that :>
Beautiful visuals and characters. Very aesthetic!!
We really appreciate the kind words merliah, thank you for playing! <3
