I really liked this game! I streamed it as one of my few streams and it was really fun to play, it was sweet and but pretty dark, although I enjoy games like this, if you see this Hotoge, you did an amazing job! I cant wait to stream and play more of your games!
My apologies for the inconvenience and thank you for the feedback! While the browser version should work in most cases, sometimes loading issues occur. There is no solution that I am aware of, but since the browser build is the only way for people on mac to play the game (and the game runs fine for most players on browser) I decided to leave it up regardless. I'll add another disclaimer at the top of the description, so hopefully more players see it and choose to download the game :)
THIS GAME IS LITERALLY SO GOOD. the graphics, and the storyline is just absolutely amazing. I started getting into rpg's after i had played the game classmates,, and i just absolutely adored this game. it took me aa little while to actually figure out what was going on and i was just kinda running around for a little bit but still. this is def going to be one of my new fav games.
I can't quite remember how i fixed it so apologies for that, but I think I powered off my laptop and then turned it back on? or i may have deleted the download and then redownloaded it.
i love this game so much, definitely the cutest horror game ive played. the subtle hinting to crow being trans was great too,i got excited when i seen the binder under his shirt. i did have some troubles with the present on the table but after lots of clicking i got it.
I love this game. The intro cutscene is what really got me hooked. It is amazing both visually and musically. Will you release the soundtrack anywhere? Would reccomend this game.
Hi, I am stuck in night one, I interacted with everything I could, and after playing with Fio nothing happened, what do I do, this game seems like a good scare q-
Credits to it for being able to have that effect on me. The amazing soundtrack certainly contributes a lot to that. Kudos to Hatoge and team for the incredible work. I've made sure to follow. :3
A word of warning for anyone else wanting to play: you won't get a full feeling of catharsis even from the perfect ending. I've played through a couple times and looked up the rest of the (non-bonus) endings, and I'm still sitting here messed up about everything. The short, vague endings just don't give enough closure to offset the horror elements.
One final question if anyone who knows sees this: why is the game tagged "Transgender"? Whatever dialog clues that in either went over my head, or I missed. :(
I've only finished one ending so far, so there may be stuff in the other endings, but so far I did notice Crow has a binder on when he looks in the mirror!
yk, actually my name is sofia, and seeing on the calendar at the beginning of the game the year 2010 scared me a bit, cuz it's the year when i was born... lol
Hello, I saw your game on this streamer and I wanted to drop by to tell you how much I liked the game. I really loved the good ending shown on stream without telling too many spoilers XD
is the browser version the same as the downloadable version? in the cutscene (great work on that btw) after you wake up and find fio in the living room, the screen fades to black and nothing happens.
note: idk if this is a bug, but when i go to the continue option in the main menu, the first slot reads "time is solid here", there might be a bug involving that.
Is this before or after the intro video plays? Both versions are the same content vise, but the downloaded version generally performs better. Also it's not a bug per se - rpg maker games shares saveslots accross broswer versions within the same broswer. I'm assuming you had a save slot in an rpg maker game called 'time is solid' which is why it's showing up in Sofia? for you :)
what do you do once you've picked up the present from the table? I picked it up, i saw the diagram on the mirror, and there are sparkles on the locked drawer in Fio's room...... however when I press it it says that Crow has no idea what it could be??? Love this game, help
this game was amazing.. i love it omg i got through all 8 endings, they were all amazing.. when i found out you can kiss fio goodbye my heart MELTED the scene of crow kissing fio on the cheek before entering the room where sofia/icarus was AUDHSLAK. this game is adorable overall, fio and crows cute relationship sort of drowned out(?) the scary, and over time i got used to the jumpscares (when i was trying to get all 8 endings lol) but the first time i played bro it was 1 am and i was scared asf--
in conclusion amazing game i loved it keep up the good work <3
Si soy sincera no me ha acabado gustando, en unas cuantas ocasiones me he aburrido y en otras el juego no deja del todo claro que debes hacer. Por el estilo y sus imágenes 10/10 y lo mismo para la historia.
i definitely didn't see all the content so 99% chance i missed it but why is this game tagged transgender? was the page with the sex marked as "in_____" supposed to be crow and that's why? idk maybe it's just tagged that way cause it's a gay love story and we're also part of the acronym but it was a lil weird
Crow is transmasc and Fio is on the nonbinary spectrum :) This wasn't explicitly stated in the game, but in some of the CGs you can see the neck of Crow's binder, and him being afab is visually hinted at in one of the endings (without saying too much). I wanted to keep the representation subtle in this game, because I think both, loud and quiet, representation are important :D If you are passionate about loud representation I warmly invite you to take a look at the Trans Representation Jam that I am hosting this year, as well as last year's entries. One of them is another game of mine, where I am much more in the player's face with the main character's identity, so feel free to take a gander if you're interested ^-^
Hiii, i am literally obsessesd w/ this game :3, even tho i had some problems with the saving and tsome more stuff, i fixed it later, the history, the characters and everything is so good, i really see the hard work behind every game you do. Aaanyways, i just wanted to thank you 4 this amazing game, i loved it so much, that i went to earn money to buy the extended version, and give a little more to try and support you more (i ran out of money :( ), I really love your works and the dedication you give these games, im pretty sure that youre an amazing person, thank you so, sooo much Hatoge <3
Thank you !!! And don't worry about supporting me financially, especially if you're tight on money! Playing my game and leaving a sweet comment is already the greates support to me 🥺 <3
i didn't thought you were going to read my comment, i am so happy rn, and, i will give you donations whenever i have a little extra, because i don't really know how much money doing this gives you, i definitely think that your work is worth more, and more attention, and even if i can't help with money, i will try and tell people i know about your amazing (like you) games :D :D
you know the thing about the "best ending" is that while bittersweet, it truly is the best outcome i could think of.
from what i know the game starts long after the real fio and crow could be saved. you may not be real, fio may not be real, but you still feel the memories, the love you had for him. even though you aren't really crow (and supposedly don't have as much capacity for remorse as an original (i wonder what other things the clone doesn't have that the original does)) you still care enough for fio to be willing to sacrifice your life for what is left of him.
even if you and your love are fakes, you still have eachother, and that's enough for you two to be happy. you may be an imperfect clone with a bullet in his shoulder who is on the run from the government, but at least you have your imperfect clone twink boyfriend, and that is all you need to be happy.

Will there be an android version in the future? That would be awesome:)
I can't deploy to android unfortunately :(
DO NOT play on browser as youll miss out on some stuff. Try to download if you can

THE ART MAKES MY HEART WANT TO BURST OUT OF MY CHEST, YOU DID SO WELL!!! Edit: I finished the game.... It's good but.... Fio.... WHYYYY
THIS GAME IS LITERALLY SO GOOD. the graphics, and the storyline is just absolutely amazing. I started getting into rpg's after i had played the game classmates,, and i just absolutely adored this game. it took me aa little while to actually figure out what was going on and i was just kinda running around for a little bit but still. this is def going to be one of my new fav games.
I downloaded the game just recently, but it doesn't open and it says 'The application can't be opened'. Does anybody know how to fix this at all? :)
I got it fixed! can't wait to play it!

I can't quite remember how i fixed it so apologies for that, but I think I powered off my laptop and then turned it back on? or i may have deleted the download and then redownloaded it.
i love this game so much, definitely the cutest horror game ive played. the subtle hinting to crow being trans was great too,i got excited when i seen the binder under his shirt. i did have some troubles with the present on the table but after lots of clicking i got it.

I love this game. The intro cutscene is what really got me hooked. It is amazing both visually and musically. Will you release the soundtrack anywhere? Would reccomend this game.

Your welcome
Story is the best thing about this game, but art is also incredibly beautiful.
Would recommend it!
Ps. I pity Sophias and Fios tho
Hi, I am stuck in night one, I interacted with everything I could, and after playing with Fio nothing happened, what do I do, this game seems like a good scare q-
cute character design and adorable artstyle, enjoyable story, not part of the lgbtq but this was cute, would reccomend playing if youre bored
Man, this game has me fucked up T-T
Credits to it for being able to have that effect on me. The amazing soundtrack certainly contributes a lot to that. Kudos to Hatoge and team for the incredible work. I've made sure to follow. :3

I will definitely be buying the extended edition once I have the money :3
I've only finished one ending so far, so there may be stuff in the other endings, but so far I did notice Crow has a binder on when he looks in the mirror!
I can't imteract with the present for day three or four idk which day it is.
Hi! I'm really loving this game. All characters are so cute! And it has very unique endings. Love it.
loved how the endings differ, and very cute characters!
yk, actually my name is sofia, and seeing on the calendar at the beginning of the game the year 2010 scared me a bit, cuz it's the year when i was born... lol

All I want to know is WHAT'S THE CODE FOR THE WHITE ROOM

oh, ok thanks! it blackscreened after the video, it briefly flashed a very dark red but after that nothing else happened.
HELP I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAVEEEEE
The first 4 files are reserved for autosave, you should be able to save on a file below that :)
Dose web auto save .-.
what do you do once you've picked up the present from the table? I picked it up, i saw the diagram on the mirror, and there are sparkles on the locked drawer in Fio's room...... however when I press it it says that Crow has no idea what it could be??? Love this game, help
Please refer to the walkthrough :)
Ok! Thank you :))
(spoilers)

I CANT INTERACT WITH THE TABLE... when she said shes left a gift for crow i cant interact with the table to open it
Have you tried interacting with it from the bottom? It's been a while, but I think the hitbox wasn't set up perfectly, my bad :')
after lots and lots of clicking I managed to figure it out, forgot to delete the comment after 😅
I am in love with this game, but the only thing that bothers me is that i can't save its like giving a beep sound please help
the first three saves are auto saves, so you'll need to scroll down to the number options in order to save whenever. I hope this helps!!
lol what am i suppose to do if they told me to wait in the living room?
click the dinner table
I'm stuck on night three and I am slowly going crazy [insert crying emoji]
did you ever figure it out? I'm stuck as well and i'm slowly losing hope...
did you ever figure it out?? i never returned AND IM STILL STUCK
if you're talking act the one where she keeps killing you then check under the bed and then quickly hide in the closet <3
this scared the SHIT out of me, i was playing at 1:51 am. i never knew pixel games could be so scary, props to you!
i definitely didn't see all the content so 99% chance i missed it but why is this game tagged transgender? was the page with the sex marked as "in_____" supposed to be crow and that's why? idk maybe it's just tagged that way cause it's a gay love story and we're also part of the acronym but it was a lil weird
great game tho i had fun and crow and fio are sweet

i'm glad i got the best ending.
i played through blind and was somehow able to stumble into the best ending (i think?) in which the two live a life on the run.
Same! idk if its the best but i dont care about the other endings, that one's sweet and feels right
