Chinese is my second language, and I didnt realize the meaning of Mei Lee until you said it in the comments haha! And its pronounced May Lee, yeah, although I’ve never met anybody with that name before ;D met somebody with a name meaning ball, but never a Mei Lee… (is that just me?) Anyways, excellent game! Update soon!!! <3
@oColorurz: I meant in Chinese lol. I actually speak Cantonese Chinese as my native language.
And I was pronouncing 美麗 (Mei-Lee) wrong it turns out when I said it in Cantonese. (I should have said "May-Lie, instead of May-Lay lol) I have no idea how to pronounce it in Mandarin correctly, but I know it’s something like “May-Lee”
I think it would make more sense for her name to be spelled Mei-Lai, considering the Southern Chinese had the most contact with the British and thus used their pronunciations for their transliterations.
Well when I originally picked the name she was going to be Korean so I didn’t much think on the Chinese pronunciation and meaning, but now that she has changed nationality it probably would make more sense to change that.
@oColourz Out of curiosity, what does the “Dark Matter” part of the title imply? Or is that to be revealed later?
It’s a part later in the story 
Added a save game option. Hopefully I can get the end of part 2 done by tonight :), though I haz a Christmas party to go to.
Isn’t dark matter what the universe is made of?
Yes with the dark energy are the 90% of universe mass
Thought so I read about it in class for science
Why is this gender-locked?
It won’t be for long , he says that he leaves much to be desired when trying to Porte a female mc in a story
Thanks for letting me know.
Right now I am writing the story as I had written it before giving it a go in ChoiceScript, and that is with a female protagonist. Though once I finish with this second scene and the demo, then I’ll add the options to be male and go in and change some of the dialogue. For right now it was simplier to me considering the time period, where a lot of characters are addressing the MC as Miss, Lady, etc.
Also, I’ve been caught up with work and Christmas activities recently so I haven’t gotten to finish part 2 yet. Though once that is done, I’d say that’s the demo, so I’ll be making bigger updates from now on, just it might take a little longer.
oh its o ovely nd it IS ZE best girl game yet
Thanks Voldemort1 :). I am a girl, so I do like it when I find games aimed towards girls :D. Alright everyone, I updated the game up to the end of the scene, finally. So the trial part is officially done :3. Sorry it had been taking me so long, I’ve just been busy.
Hope you like it :).
@oColourz - Trial part? As in demo before you sell? I’m not convinced, it’s a curious idea and the story is, well it hasn’t exactly kicked off yet given it’s the early stages but it’s not pulling me in. I found myself thinking, whether reasonably or not that I should really be getting back to that little brother and sick mum, yet the character was very much happy to just roll with things.
Early days yet though. Anyway if that is as far as your ‘demo’ is going to be, I think you need to get it going a bit longer. As it stands what I’m seeing at the moment wouldn’t convince me to take a plunge. But hopefully you’ll do well with it as I like the idea in any case.
Well not before I sell, I was really just planning on this being free and making it for fun, but by trial, perhaps I should have worded it as demo, my bad, I meant it’s all that’s going to be up on here for a while until I actually do write more for the story. So people can play around with the making the character and the first scene, but I’m planning on having a lot written by the next time I make an update. As for the character rolling with things, I’m planning on writing more to draw the character into the world, as of now they aren’t fully convinced to stay yet which would hopefully be made a little more clear in the next scene.
I don’t want to be forced to play a girl, but I guess if the game is good ( an it sounds good ) I won’t really mind
Couple of things I noticed in my playthrough:
In the first scene your family is hard-pressed for food, but keeps a maid at the same time. That comes across as a tad contradictory. I’m assuming it is meant to show that the family is at an social level where they at least have to keep up appearances, but if so it should be expressed a bit more obviously.
In the dream sequence (after reading the pamphlets and before part 3) appears the sentence: “Let what happens come what may and you will find where you are needed.”
I think there is a mistake in there (or I just don’t get it 
)
When I tried to save at part 3 it gave me an error “line 5: bad label saveoption”. That could just be because it’s the end of the demo so far, but I thought I’ll say it anyway.
Otherwise a good read, but a bit slow off the start. Will have to wait for further updates before I make up my opinion
So, what’s goin’ on?
