WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID...
"I won't lie, I was on the lookout for a f*ping game when I stumbled upon this VN ^^''. But, I found myself, 2 hour and half later, still playing, following the story, thinking thoroughly of each decision I was to make having the sake of the characters like prior thought. I find it formidable how it captivated me as quickly as it did( no expert but I liked the naration and the interactions). The music, which I found really pleasant just to listen even presently, as I write from the title screen, added to the quality of this great game althought, as already said, the moment of prolonged silence made me thinked my speekers were defectious ha ha. To finalize this critic/words of appreciation, call it as you may, I would like to thank you, BeerBrew and Sharkie from PaperWaifu Studio, you've made those 2 and a half hour very enjoyable and can't wait to see what's next. To the joy of seeing your futures release."
"The narrative is actually good. Is this real life?"
"Lots of potential and a great game. Such a nice and thoughtful story that really can touch a person. You even forget that this is an eroge in the process. Seriously this thing deserves to be greenlit. Anyway keep up the good work. Can't wait for the other girls and routes."
"Very nice demo, can't wait to see the next chapter!"
"I like long involved storylines and this one is certainly has the pagecount to qualify. :) Almost too long, as others have pointed out I was probably halfway through the game (demo,) and I was still seriously wondering why it had an "A" rating. I did find the storyline entertaining... who knew I could be interested in what makes a Ramen chef?"

I will never look at kimchi the same way ever again. xD
It's an incredible game, maybe the best I've ever played ! The different stories, the graphims and music are just... Wow. And, last but not least, all characters are very compelling. So, congratulations to the developpers and thank you for this awesome game !! Keep going ^^
PS : I've a question for you developpers : when will we (non-patron guys) be able to play the entire stories of each character, if it's possible ?
I was wondering that too
Hello! It's been 2 years, but to answer your question, the main version of the demo (also found here on Itch) is now the free public build.
