How it feels
A short, self-aware visual novel with a quirky, funny tone and a protagonist who's modestly overconfident.

What players say
Players finish this free visual novel in about 10 minutes. They find the artwork cute but most agree there is no truly good ending, only bad ones that end the game quickly. The story about a struggling calligrapher is described as shallow and rigid.
