About
Fail the rhythm segments or say the wrong thing in conversation, and the woman on screen simply stops being interested. Timing and composure matter as much as dialogue choices, and the game is built to punish sloppy play rather than reward clicking through.
You are graded, essentially: react on beat, keep your composure, pick the right lines, and you earn access to deeper conversations, romance, and the content that follows. Miss the cues and the same scene just closes off. It's not a visual novel wearing a game's clothes; the skill checks are the actual gate.
Updates land on a biweekly cadence, with patrons voting on which characters and mechanics get built next, so the game is still being shaped in the open rather than shipped finished.
Changelog
v0.15
- New Content
- 4 new chat scenarios expanding relationship progression and branching outcomes.
- General Improvements
- The game now supports multiple saves per individual girl. You can freely select out of 3 save slots and unlocked pictures go into a shared gallery of everything you have found.
- Failing a girl will lock that save slot permanently.
- Redeeming codes will try to apply to the first Save Slot if possible, or try and find the most appropriate one.
- Many minor fixes I usually don't mention, but one that might lead to some confusion otherwise: The heart meter on selecting a girl now more accurately reflects how close you are to her final scene.
- vV0.14
- New Content
- 3 new chat scenarios expanding relationship progression and branching outcomes.
- 3 additional new chat scenarios in opposing, branching paths of a girl's story.
- General Improvements
- Hitting 0% charge no longer takes your soul and deletes your savefile. It now instead incurs a punishment at the very end of the game.
- The rhythm game now has some leeway to misplay a bit before taking too much battery charge. This is much more noticeable in later difficulties.
- The game no longer jumps you to newly introduced difficulties if you play along with every patch. Instead, if you have higher Rizz than expected, it puts you to where the newly added difficulties begin to scale so you have a chance to get introduced to them properly.

- New Content
- 6 new chat scenarios expanding relationship progression and branching outcomes.
- General Improvements

- New Content
- 4 new chat scenarios expanding relationship progression and branching outcomes.

v0.10
- New Content
