How it feels

A gentle, story-driven visual novel where you journal through a young woman's everyday life and modest hopes.

What players say

Players describe a relatable, slow-burn slice of life about a shy teen adjusting to a new school, with believable characters and good voice acting. But it is a short kinetic novel with no choices, the engine has minor graphical glitches, and it was planned as a trilogy that seems to have stopped at this first episode.
