Hi :)

Good and funny visual novel, great  job :)

This is amazing in every way possible. All three of the speed-dating partners fit an archetype commonly portrayed in these kinds of games, making it feel familiar and fun to cycle through. The grading system at the end made me want to get every possible ending, thus adding to the replay value to the game. 

The only issues I encountered were the occasional grammar errors and text being difficult to read due to colour in relation to background. Adding an outline would improve the readability and overall accessibility of the game. 

Again, amazing. Interesting take on the one-button game prompt. Absolutely loved the way each character responded to the player. Some very brutal comments made by the main character. Love it.

Great job overall :)

This is a very interesting take on the game jam, focussing more on character development and world building rather than gameplay. Although I have found that this has made the game sacrifice player interaction leading to everything feel pre-determined which in turn makes every choice feel less important.

Apart from that, the story it tells is able to quickly and effectively portray and develop characters, making the viewer able to pick up on things laid down in the dialogue that isn't picked up by the character, creating an interesting dynamic between the viewer and the world. 

While there are no major issues with this game, I was able to spot some spelling mistakes, such as misspelling Amateur as 'ameture' along with a few sentences not flowing properly. Along with this, some of the character's sprites ended up looking quite pixelated and compressed. Despite these issues, the story overall is enjoyable and has some replayability.

There was a bug where it had the bookworm's name and text colour when the popular girl was on screen. Also, might want to use some sort of spelling checker for the dialogue. Other than that, pretty good
