Ah, I think I’m immersed in your game again. It’s incredible that I only discovered two very interesting works by the same author after seeing the latest place.
But unlike the tennis work, my attitude towards love is to look forward. Except for relationships that break up due to force majeure, I think moving forward is always right. In another game, I played a save for each RO. But I think in this work, I hope the protagonist can step out of the past and embrace the sun of the future.
At the same time, this work is really interesting. Especially the Chinese name of the protagonist "Rui ji”.If it were in China, MC would likely have a cute nickname "Jerry”.Finally, thank you very much for playing such a great game. Looking forward to the future!⚈₃⚈
At long last, the latest chapter is LIVE for ko-fi and patreon supporters! This is the one where things come to a head, and decisions have to be made… It also sets things up for the final chapter (before the extended epilogue). I’m so sorry it took a while, and as always, I can’t wait to hear what you guys think
Have one last day with Qiu, Shay, or Nat on Ubin, a little island a boat ride away from mainland Singapore.
Talk about what the future holds for the three of you, including remaining in New York or moving back to Singapore
Commit to them, or break up, or … leave things open? (No spoilers~)
End on a cliffhanger (I’m sorry)
I’ve also made some overall edits to the earlier chapters (as I had to streamline it and wrangle it into shape for possibly ending the game properly!!
Public drop:
Chapter 5 will likely go public in about a week, definitely before Christmas. I’ve updated the earlier chapters on the public demo link, so that your saves will match up with the new chapter when it drops!*
*Do note that old saves will likely not work due to the edits made!
Please let me know if you encounter any issues, I will be polishing and fixing bugs over the next 2-3 days
You’re definitely right. But sometimes our hearts are foolish! But yeah, I hope your protagonist is able to craft the future they want—especially with this new chapter, we’re heading there I think!
Jerry for “Rui Jie” is perfect ahaha <3 Thank you so much for your lovely comment!
Hihi, was just attempting a fresh playthrough with the upload on COGdemos and ran into an infinite load at the same place on two different browsers. I tried clearing my cache, but that didn’t seem to be the issue. I’ll add a screenshot of the page where the hang happens. It doesn’t seem to be dependent on the choice made on the previous page, though I caught the first flight to Singapore on each of my attempts.
I still seem to be sticking in the same spot, and with freshly cleared caches. I wish I could just upload my save file so you could check it that way, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to do that; I see it in my downloads folder, but getting it uploaded to the forums is a bit over my head.
Hi, I’m getting the same issue as @Jenna_V, on the same spot. I’ve also tried clearing my browser cache and also tried a different browser but it still loads forever.
Hiya oh no I tried again to upload the files properly—and then play tested it on my end. It seems to be working now, I hope it works now? Let me know if it doesn’t!
For the new demo, is there a reason why so many past scenes and choices were cut out? Is it because it is being turned into a VN? Just a bit sad because the game feels much more linear now compared to before.
It’s mostly because we’re reaching the end of the game, and I now need to make sure all the loose ends are tied up, which means I needed to streamline the narrative a little so I can ensure the story ends satisfyingly!
As for some of the other scenes (e.g. condom), I wrote with not much editing, so right now I had to do a first-pass edit and if the scene doesn’t really fits with the larger narrative / if there’s no real point in the scene, it’s better off not being there!
I know that it’s a little shocking/jarring especially if you liked the scenes, but I’m hoping that it’ll be worth it to help deliver a final completed story in the end!
Just finished playing the demo uptil chapter 4 and it has been a great experience! Although the reason I couldn’t continue further is because of a bug, after attending Nat’s convention and spending time with her the game automatically forces the choice of attending the Christmas carnival with Nat even though I had previously chosen to go there with Shay, tho tbf I played through the rest of chapter 4 and did decide to end things with Nat, but going through that scene and making Nat cry directly makes me a bit too sad , also the choice to spend time with Shay in ch 5 is also greyed out maybe because I didn’t go to the carnival with her, welp at least it finally forces my MC to spend some time with their family lol
Oh no! Could I just ask if you started the game from the beginning? Could you help me take a pic of the choice forcing you to attend the festival with Nat? I want to make sure you can experience Chapter 5!!
Same situation, only I wanted to go with Qui. It’s not a big deal after all, I restarted the game and this time I broke up with Nat for good. Qui was the goal all along anyway, I just had to make this decision a little earlier.
By the way, I’ve only just started chapter 5, and so far it happens quite often that (female) Qiu is called “him”.
Hi, first I need to tell you how lovely this story is. I love the setting and I love the RO so much, and I have a huge soft spot for the brother. But unfortunately I have a bug to report.
I’m playing with a queer M!MC and I never told his family about it or about Nat, but during the family dinner in the restaurant when I chose to talk to his brother they talk about how their family met Nat once and how my MC don’t want his aunt to know about Nat too. This conversation happens even if I don’t mention Nat to his aunt. Also, I don’t know if it helps you but it happens when I flirt with Nat and when I don’t. I started the game again, picked different choices and still happens.
I can’t take pics right now but I hope it helps. Also sorry if I didn’t explain better but english is not my first language.
Edit: It seems like it really just assumes I came out for my family even if I didn’t because I spent the night with Shay and when they talk after, Shay says something about my family’s reaction to me being into guys and my MC tells him they didn’t like it, but, like I said before, I chose to never tell them, not about Nat, not about being queer, nothing. I didn’t continue to read after that because it kinda took me out of the story, so I can’t really tell you more, but I assume it will just assume I came out until the end. I started the game two times and chose different options and it always stays the same.
, also the choice to spend time with Shay in ch 5 is also greyed out maybe because I didn’t go to the carnival with her, welp at least it finally forces my MC to spend some time with their family lol 
But unfortunately I have a bug to report.
