This reminds me so much of my days as a 13 year-old fanfiction reader. I didn't know fanfiction was something I still needed in my life omg. And the game ended at exactly the right time, just when I started getting bored, all like "JUST DO IT. CONFESS. EVEN MY SORRYY COWARDLY ASS WAS ABLE TO DO IT IT'S NOT THAT HARD YOU &%@#!" It's also amazing how much one can do with just 4 colors, it's actually impressive.
Ik the demo hasn't been out for long but do you have any idea when the full game will come out? :3 I've checked steam and online but have only seen it's coming this year.
Hiya, thx for asking -- ive been meaning to post an updaaaate so i'll probably make a wee blog post or smn going over how progress on the full versn is going ((and what ppl can expect!!)) still very keen to get it wrapped this year, and v. much appreciate every1s patience while its bein worked on. (tl;dr its basically just 1.5 ppl working on it ""part time"" so its slow cookin)
OMG so excited for the full version!! The demo was so good it was like a slap in the face when i saw the "end of demo" thing lmao take the time you need tho :))
I absolutely LOVE this game to pieces (despite not playing much of it, as I got a little confused about where to go), seeing the fact that it's based in New Zealand when I looked at it on Steam to add it onto my wishlist made me so happy, as I'm from New Zealand myself, and from a small town down south. I adore the style of this game, and all of the scenes and dialogue, I can't wait until the full version is released. Keep up the great work :DDD
ayo!! small kiwi town solidarity!! thanks sm for the lovely comment, sorry to hear u got confused lol!!! theres some quality of life stuff we'll put in the full version thatll hopefully help w/ that (in the meantime u can check out a no commentary playthru on YouToob 4 guidance if needed) 🙏🐸
hihi ! playing thru it for the first time n ts is extremely cute forreal !! something that my playthru is hitting is the part at the ' private key ' . ferg doesn't say his line that prompts me to get the lighter from the groundskeeper so I'm stuck w ken just saying they r dead bushes !! but overall enjoying the whole story rn :)
thanks for the feedback on the graveyard scene!! i'll be making this part clearer in the final release 4 sure, haha.
if it is bugged -- i think you could try going into the crypt in the bottom right of the map again (check 58:25 in the vid) and just check if you can reset the trigger for the gorse bushes / lighter quest that comes after.
I know this is late but private key is the 4rth key which is should be somewhere on the bottom right of the graveyard, surrounded by a fence. There you will find the 5th key, the last (forgot what its called) and only THEN, you will be able to get to the last building-thingy.
Hi there, love the concept and nostalgia of the game, great art!!
I saw that your game is part of the Queer Games bundle 2024, and my team and I are currently working on a volunteer project about queer games for Pride Month. In short, we want to translate a queer game for free to give visibility to LGBT gaming! Would you be interested?
Please message me on Twitter @Liar_is_fire, or by email at caroline.tsakanias@gmail.com so I can give you more info!
omg! thanks so much for reaching out, the Queer Them All initiative sounds fantastic and translation is defs something i'd be interested in for this project. will get in touch with you to learn more!!!
okay so i love this game this IS one of a kind and id pay my left kodney for the full version the work yall put in this is visible thank you so much for putting this game out there this is a one of a kind game this is all ive ever been looking for in a game and im looking forward to more ❤️
I will edit this when I finish but my mom's boyfriend just asked "What 1980s game are you playing?"
Heh, little does he know....I'll shut up. I think this game's dialogue has changed the way I talk ^^'
8 MINS LATER I cried when I got that cliffhanger, Tysm for this fun gameplay. My emo boi needs to it to him straight (unlike him) Also the graveyard soundtrack was my favorite, I was dancing. Keep it up
Personally if you find it cringe its just not for you funny to me youd click on a game called "small town emo" with the cover litteraly saying Gayy Boy and think "oh yeah thats a normal 2022 pixel game with gore and murder" this is one of a kind and the work put in it is amazing especially love those little actual drawings where you can see what they actually look like
The demo version is so simple and cozy. yes, not without hints of problems and a deeper plot, and yet... with my rather poor knowledge of English and the desire to explore everything, I played for about three hours. I'm not sure I found all the memes, but...
There's so much detail here even though it's just a demo. Maybe it's just my imagination, but I think it's cute that Ken literally always looks back at Ferg when they walk together. I like that the only (I guess I'm never sure enough..) moment when the sound disappears in the game is the moment Ferg visits his grandmother's grave and a short dialogue about the consequences of death.
this is a good game. Looking at the developer's responses, I thought it would be important to dump this bunch of thoughts and praise here.
I don't know if I'll be able to see/buy/play the release version, but... I'm already fascinated by this project. Thank you.
yo. thanks for taking the time to play, & leaving this lovely comment 😭 the details u pointed out are some of my favourites. the silence at grandma's grave, hints of deeper problems + exploring and finding memes... all silly (maybe) but important bits i really wanted folks to enjoy.
reading ur thoughts on the project is a bit like looking at it with fresh eyes. its very motivating and cathartic. so thank u for sharing. hopefully u are able to check out the full release when its ready. much love ty ❤️🐸
AOSIFAIIDOISADJOIJOFIADJ I LOVE THEM SO MUCH AAAAAAAAA I REALLY LIKED THE THE SCENE WHERE THEY WERE DRINKING AND THEIR FACES WERE CLOSE TO EACH OTHER ASFJOPDOP I REALLY DO HOPE THIS GAME GETS UPDATED, I WILL SEE EVERYDAY IF THIS GETS UPDATED, THIS ACTUALLY IS MY FAVORATE GAME FROM NOW ON
ayo. glad u've enjoyed the project!! ❤️ thanks sm fer the lovely comment!!!! update is definitely "IN PROGRESS" (maybe dont check every day tho lmaooo) 🙏🐸

8 MINS LATER
I cried when I got that cliffhanger, Tysm for this fun gameplay. My emo boi needs to it to him straight (unlike him) Also the graveyard soundtrack was my favorite, I was dancing. Keep it up
NOT ME WAITING FOR THE KISS😭😭😭 THIS IS SUCH A LOVELY GAME, i hope you get enough rest to be able to finish this! I just love it too much-
THIS IS SUCH A CUTE GAME WHAT... BUT YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE US ON A CLIFFHANGER >:00
ken and ferg are just too lovable... they have to get together!! can't wait for the full game / any updates!
thank uu sm!!! working hard on getting it all wrapped up so we can beat the cliffhanger allegations ❤️❤️❤️
This game is cringe
yea ❤️
Personally if you find it cringe its just not for you funny to me youd click on a game called "small town emo" with the cover litteraly saying Gayy Boy and think "oh yeah thats a normal 2022 pixel game with gore and murder" this is one of a kind and the work put in it is amazing especially love those little actual drawings where you can see what they actually look like
I love this, but I'm stuck. How do I get past the dead gorse bushes?
hiiiii! sorry to hear u got stuck -- with the gorse bushes u need 2 get a lighter from the NPC who is smoking ((near the graveyard carpark.))
if ya peep this video at around 59:45 you can see the steps to do this (and u can check back if u've missed a step):
hope that helps!! thanks for reaching out <3
OMG THE MCR REFERENCES IN THIS GAME!!!!! I love this demo I could tattoo this on my forhead
