“slop slop slop. what a waste of time the use of AI is horrifically apparent. redo it with effort and passion. lazy AI slop game.”
— a player, Steam review · 0 hrs played“Terrible. Nearly all art is bad AI. The plot feels written by AI and I only felt this game about maybe one other visual novel. Plot was overly confusing. I’m not sure if I got the ending or if the game crashed. I just uninstalled it after that. Just dreadfully boring.”
— a player, Steam review · 2 hrs played“I like the concept of it and how its going, but unfortunate it has a lot of ai stuff that may doesn't give you the best experience may you have, like it would be cooler and of course better if the art wasn't so ai like that, but in general I liked the the game”
