I just played this one now. Very cute : )
Cute, will there be a sequel?
It's a nice, short game with the option to play it in Japanese. I thought the Japanese version read well and should be approachable to most learners. It takes a little while to get going but then it turns into a ride that won't slow down. The ending is really nice!
I wouldn't say no to a sequel someday.
a small but neat game and just good characters and Ost 8.6/10
very cute game! i love it
I love all ur games, hot springs was the best of all fo ur games in my opinion but you make such cuteee game, ily <3
First and foremost, I love this game's sweetness. The way that Bell tries to be sweet to everybody in the best route, especially with the unconventional avenue of it, it's like... stuff like that is so freaking good. And everybody reciprocating to it in their own special ways is.... It's really wonderful! All of it!!! And overall, the narrative of a small, positive interaction causing a bit of joy and consideration is just... like!!! Really beautiful....
Extra mention to the soundtrack, because it really fits the game perfectly. Although, I'm a huge fan of melodic percussion, which the OST has at really great parts, so.... a lot of the tracks in it catered to that, and I am super fricking glad for it. BUT EVEN JUST BESIDE THAT, I LOVE THE OST IN EVERY OTHER WAY..... I just, personally, really love vibraphones, chimes, and everything else around that category.
I'm really glad this game was made. Its positivity and overall sweetness and comfiness are really wonderful. Thank you!!
This was such a cute story! At first I didn't vibe with it but as I continued on with the story it was absolutely heart melting and I eventually liked Olive! But fr my favorite is Nep, wanna hug him lmao. Thanks for creating such a cute story!!
I really enjoyed this story, especially the interactions between Jan and Bell.
So cute. Nep has got to be my favorite cuz of how sad he got when the color the beach had vanished and then got all excited when he had his idea about the rainbow parfait. It was just adorable.
This was incredibly cute <3 Thank you!
it's really cute :) good story and Olive made me laugh , good visual novel :)
Sadly i quit after visiting two areas because I got a tad bored, other than that the art is really cute along with Bell and Olive! ^^
All of npckc's games are really amazing, I strongly recommend giving it a full play through! I admittedly am also the type of person to get bored easily, but have always finished a npckc game filling fulfilled and satisfied ^_^.
I want to see an Olive confession to Bell
can someone help me I cant get it to download on my windows?
never mind it worked ! cute game
That was so sweet and wholesome, definitely a nice game to play on Pride. Like Nep I'd like the beach to be rainbow all the time
Cute game! Liked the story, but got a bit slow for my tastes. :) Still enjoyed it.
HAAAAA! This game is so cute I'm getting teary!
This is such a cute little game! It was extremely wholesome and a pleasure to read through. I'm certainly looking forward to whatever you come up with next!
I really loved this game! Especially Bell and Olive!
I was thinking of using this as an example game for a middle school class I'm teaching that's using Ren'Py for game creation. This game seems like a great example but is there anything that would be inappropriate for a middle school audience? I want to make sure there wasn't some dialogue bit I overlooked.
all the language and themes should be appropriate for children, so please go ahead!
This game is nice.
Simple and good artstyle and characters.
Very nice plot with cute ending. Plus few important choices.
It's a very good bit of fun to play this :)
Sooo cute! Made me wish I could experience a beach with rainbow sand! Was Bell intended to be read as autistic? As a queer autistic person myself, that's my headcanon.
I enjoyed this game a lot ;w;
Really cute game! I loved it. :)
I liked the beach part best.
Hope to see more of Bell, Olive and the others in the future! :)
Just finished my playthru and it was very cute and fun! Can't wait to see what you make next!
I thought this was a cute little mystery! The characters are so lovable and I really like the way you drew them! I'm not much of an artist so I can't pinpoint it in detail but their designs really pop out to me and I find that really appealing! As for the character's traits, I really enjoyed seeing Bell interact with a handful of different characters and actually learning about what kind of person she is through the dialouge. It's nice to see that respect of intelligence for the player/reader. My favorite interactions were probably with Jan and the Student, but regardless, all the characters are well crafted and enjoyable! Another thing I really enjoyed was the music. There was something really simple and appealing with the tracks. Even if they were short, they felt very appropriate for where they were played. Specifically, the Cafe theme sticks with me the most as I feel it fits well with Jan's character/personality. Anyway, I'm going a little long with this mini-review. I really enjoyed it! It was nice to play this game on Halloween day. I'm not a big fan of scary games so a cute game about a witch and a small mystery was very appealing to me! I'm looking forward to what you make next!
Love the characters, are you thinking in making more games with them?
Daaang, that was SO. SO. SOOO CUTE !!!
I really enjoyed playing it, it was short but so nice and fluffy, and enjoyable to read. I liked the art too, it's simple and adorable. The choice of musics is nice too, it suits well the game and different atmospheres without being too much :D
My favourite moments were the beach part and the school one, they left me grinning like an happy idiot ! >u<
Good job with this, and thanks for this nice story C:
oh my goodness this game is so wonderful!! all of the characters were so cute and the story is so light and fun, i really enjoyed it! bell and olive are such a cute pair too <3 i love the style of this by the way ;o; the interface is very simple and appealing, and i especially loved the little illustrations of everyone in the end! ahh it was so sweet... thank you for making this wonderful little story <333
