I LITERALLY JUST SAW ONE OF THE MEMES IN THE GALLERY FROM QUEST, AND, MAY I SAY, I RECOGNIZE THAT SCENE, THAT TOOK ME BY SURPRISE, MAN, I DIDN'T SEE IT WHEN I PLAYED, BUT WHEN I CHECKED THE GALLERY I SWEAR I HAD TO TAKE A SCREENSHOT AND SEND IT TO ALL MY FRIENDS. Nice reference.

Aww. Got xyx Bad End. Wouldn't have changed my choices though; I was completely myself. Such a shame it had to end that way. I wish there were more chances, more wiggle-room to be authentic and still get his Good End.
For example: I truly didn't know whether or not he wanted to join the zine. If he told me privately that he REALLY didn't want to, then I would have spoken up for him.
(Also, I tried going into the bot channel and typing the /hypebot pause thing myself; I wish that actually worked!)

Sal was very nice too, I wish I could have had a one-on-one conversation with him just to get to know him. I wanted to be friends!!

As for music, Logging_Off is my favorite track!! Awesome vibes, love the sweeping violins contrasted with the electronic feel.

Genuinely felt like I was in a Discord server. Great job on the UI. The "save" and "load" buttons could be a bit more clear; I kept clicking on the wrong one haha. Also, the voice acting on the video calls really surprised me, awesome job on that!!

No matter what I do, I can't get Toast route TcT
What should I do??

lmao, not me wanting a onionthief route ahsgdjhagsd 

I'm playing it again (all routes bcuz yes i can). I literally redownloaded it so i could hear Quest call me an angel <3 

I love absolutely everything about this game! Its one of my all time favorites.

the screamed when i fond out me and Quest both can't eat kiwi - I'm in love <3

I have 100+ hrs and still haven't done any of the bad endings. I just can't. The world would be a better place with more VNs like this. Everyone feels so damn genuine. I wish each route was 100+ long lmao The side characters have heart. June is a sweetie pie, Biglady could use me anyway she wants just sayin, Onion is the know-it-all-jerk you love. Sal is Dad joke central and has a heart of gold. Two is my bestest lil bro. Even a certain uh someone you meet later is a joy.

XYX: DEAR GOD WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! I'm not into instant attractions and the whole love at first sight type of stuff but HE HAD ME from the get go. Like take my wallet, blood and first-born Idc! His personality encapsulates my type so hard it's legit scary. Create him irl rn and clone him indefinitely so we don't have to go to war over him. Everyone gets an Xyx!

Quest: Oddly his route is the one I've played the most and I find him so weirdly sexy lol He's a big muscular nerd which is dangerous Henry Cavil demigod type of sh*t. I'm a sucker for it and his bonus... *tingles uncontrollably* His conflict was the one that held the most weight for me. It's also the route where the mc has their own personal issue to deal with as well. I loved it and adored how the others in the group teased you both. Wish there was more of that.

NightOwl: Oh he's delicious. He'd be much younger than me irl and it satisfies my inner I'm-at-milf-age. I enjoyed his conflict but it did make me uncomfortable (as it should) but not in a bad way. I loved watching him grow in the short time you have with him. Unearthing his flaws was a joy because that's what made him feel real beyond his flirtatious vibe. His bonus left me feeling uncontrollably lonely. Like I need that irl.

Toaster: I love Final Fantasy so I felt very "I have found my people" with him. He's not my usual type and can be a bit cold at first but boy oh boy do I enjoy diving deep when it comes to a person's personality and his is quite sweet. He's a good guy, loyal to those he cares for and very much unapologetically true to himself. And his hair is gorg. HIS BLUSHES SUSTAIN ME! His bonus was so so sweet. 

I've left another comment about my love for this VN before but the I-must-gush-over-this flood gates opened once more.

I saw a short review of this game in ChoiceBeat Issue 3, and decided to check it out, and I had fun. I specially like how consistence it is with its style of presentation, and also how the secondary characters are writen.

Thanks for making and sharing!

This is my first visual novel I've played in years, and man it was so enjoyable. I wasn't expecting much from it, but it reminded me of my discord days with my friends when I was younger, and I fell in love with the characters.
I've finished all the routes, good and bad and I'm still not ready to move on, someone please discuss it with me. It was so damn cute, especially the video calls.

IVE NEVER BEEN SO OBSESSED WITH A GAME .. all the charactersa re just so UGHH AND GOOD AND I LOVE THEM AND XYX IS MY FABROITE. i lvoe this game so much, and i love the plots and the story points im crazy over this!!!!!!!!!!!  I NEED TO DRAW FANART ASAP

(2 edits) (+2)

I loved this game SO MUCH??? i just randomly stumbled upon it and was curious that it was set in a discord-like so i got it without even really looking at what were the story or LI (i didn't even knew what they looked like before playing XD ). Just went with the flow... and it was such a great moment??? ;O;

[PROBABLY SPOILERS IN WHAT I'LL WRITE AFTER THIS !!! :O ]

The characters are all so well written, even the secondary ones, it really felt like you're hanging out night after night with a bunch of new friends and it's so lovely and heart-warming! I enjoyed so much learning more about all of them, depending on which route you're in, taking part of their lively conversations was very fun! And you can really feel the common past they share on this server before the MC's arrival, it's so SO cool and well written.

And the LI were all very interesting in their own ways, i loved the themes that were explored and how that was done, how each time it could be tied to Bloomic too... (and btw, even Bloomic itself was so cool to discover haha! ) I haven't done their bad ends yet because I'M TOO SCARED I DON'T WANT TO SEE THEM HURT AND ALL PLEASE NO ;___; But i'll totally replay the game again just to try all choices and all haha! Also THANK YOU for LI that are in their late 20s~30s, we need more of those uuugh ;A;/

I'd say my fav' route was definitely xyx, his sense of humour is 100% mine too, so i really had a lot of fun each time he was talking (and his duo with Toasty omg. I was so glad each i could be part of their shenanigans, Chaos Trio let's gooo haha XD ). But i also really loved how he was still very attentionate to others. His struggles, i could totally relate with C':

My 2nd fav' route is probably Toasty because, well, again, his humour, also playing the little adventure game was so fun too! I loved a lot of the interactions and things that happened in his route! I must say tho, the "revelation" was kind of a let-down for me? It felt a little too... "easy/cliché"? (aaah i hope it doesn't come off as rude of judging because that's absolutely not what i mean ;_; ) More like, it's a setting that i've got contradicted feelings about in general, one part of me absolutely love it, but another part is like, too critical i'd say :'D
Like, I was wondering all along who could be behind all this amongst our fellows Bloomic pals, what where their motives, was it an experimentation by Onion??? For his studies? Or saloniC maybe??? Who could have tried to cope over the years with writing those, and then the fact that the Blooming versions were brightening with the time were echoing to the fact that he was getting happier again?
... But then again, i had my own expectations and those are my own, not the writer's responsability imo, and it does make more sense for it to be related to Toasty XD I still found this ending interesting and touching!!! (and i was glad we get to read Bloomic's ending aaaahh ;O; )

I got Nightowl the 1rst time i played and i enjoyed his route too, he's cute and fun and again, relatable! Quest was really cool too, but mayyybe my "least" fav' of the 4? Idk, less of my vibes i guess, but the fact that it focused also a little more on the MC this time around was interesting! (i would have personally banned societyboi~ from the server the second he showed up, i mean, his icon and name??? Instaban!!! >:D Hahaha )

Well, it's already a huge wall of text so i'll stop here, but huge thanks and props to all the people who made this game, it's??? Wow. The writing, the characters, the art, the voices ??? (really good job! :O ), everything, honestly!!!! It was so immersive, really feels like its own world and i've become so attached to all the characters in just 3 nights, help.

I can say hands down that this might be the best visual novel I've played in a HOT minute.

Xyx's route made me bawl. I have never smiled and cried so much during a visual novel. Absolutely fantastic, A++++.

I loved the game, 100% recommended.

The truth is I don't know how I'm going to continue with my life now.

MAN THAT GAME IS SO FUCKING PERFECT!!!
In the firt place I was like "Oh~ A Game? Sounds fun"
BUT HOW DID YOU GUYS DO THAT SO PERFECT????????? MY FAVORITE ENDING IT'S WITH TOASTER!! I FUCKING CRY MAN 

Sorry, I didin't do the bad endings, If I cry in the good ending of toaster my heart can handle the bads---

genuinely i had so much fun playing this game and doing all the routes (good ones bc bad endings will probably make me cry) !! aaahhhh !! i love this game so much !!

(+2)

BUT SERIOUSLY I LOVE THIS GAME. CURRENT FAV IS NIGHTOWL.

AGREED

HMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN ONION ARCCCCCCCCCC

I've played this game a bunch of times at this point but like, only the good routes cos I'm terrified of bad endings. Anyways I tried one of the bad endings and I've spent the last hour crying about it.

For anyone thinking of trying this game, do it. It's got great writing, the characters feel genuine and are easy to get attached to, and it is sooooo soft. Additionally the voices are perfect for the characters.

I am fully in love with this game and will play multiple times over.

Like in all honesty this is my first time commenting on a game, and it's solely because I love this game so much I can't even explain it properly. Thank you to the wonderful crew for making such an amazing experience please keep doing what you've done here because its phenomenal work!

Hi there! I'm CJ—I'm working on a master list of interface drama and would like to include your game as an interface drama, which is a game that tells stories through the use of interface (UI).

I'm reaching out to devs of games in the list to confirm that I have accurate tags of your game.

Right now, the tags on Blooming Panic are:
- relationship driven

- lgbtqia+

If there's any other tags on the list, or ones you'd like to add, please let me know. Thank you for your time.

If you're still doing this you should add error 143 and mythic meetup to your list :)

(+1)

YES - thank you for the recommendations; I'll add them to my queue of games!

The game is so good!!!!!

Thank you! I'm very pleased :333

WAIT NAKEDTOASTER IS 6'4!?!?

I wanna marry nightowl. PLEASE I NEED ANOTHER PART OF THIS!!

I didn't have set expectations for this game when I first played but having this experience was amazing, if I'm being honest, I don't read through the game details weather playing the first time so the "chat" and "voice chat"/"video calls" were a pleasant surprise. The voice acting during the calls was great and I couldn't have imagined otherwise for this game, I am a little disappointed that there wasn't much " behind the scenes" in game where you could interact with the love interests in person past the ending but it's still amazing nonetheless, might be just me anyway. I did cry as well but I enjoyed everything from beginning to end, even if I didn't know what I was doing at first lmao

(+3)

i cried

Yeah, I cried in the good ending of Toaster....

(1 edit) (+2)

GOD WHAT DO YOU EVEN SAY ABOUT THIS GAME?! HOW DO I RESUME ALL MY FEELINGS INTO WORDS?!

Bro this game surpassed my expectations... I mean c'mon, this is great for anybody who is afraid of online people but is still delusional that someone good might pop up LOL. 

All the dialogues, the art, the VOICE ACTING?!, the characters, the layout, the time and effort, the accuracy of how 20-year-olds communicate, the flirting and romance just. OH. MY. GOD.

DO I NEED TO SAY MORE?! IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT DOWNLOADING THIS, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND JUST DOWNLOAD THE GODDAMN GAME. YOU WON'TTTT REGRET IT. THIS FILLED MY HOPELESS ROMANTIC DELUSIONAL VOID AND I THANK THE HEAVENS FOR THE CREATORS, VOICE ACTORS, GOD EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT, JUST, THANK YOU! This is such a good game omfg 15/10, would recommend it to anybody over 16-years-old.

this is so so so good, i did the 4 good ends in like 2 days 

I did in one day---

ABSOLUTELY FREAKING AMAZING NO WORDS JUST THEM<3 IT FELT SO REAAAAL

First time I made a comment for any game on here but this one is just too good for me to finish it without giving it some praise! Aside from the clear effort that went into building the plot and the mechanics of the game, one thing that really impressed me (as an avid discord user who has made some lifelong friends and also met some weird ass people through discord fandom servers) is how accurate the dynamic of the characters are?? Definitely gave me a bit of whiplash here and there. Very good game! I made it through the three main routes all within a day and looking forward to finishing the last one soon!

I wish there were more to the boysssssss! The game literally put a smile on my face more than several times because of how cute their reactions were or them being easily flustered! The voice actors did a really awesome job too! Game would be in my top 3 otome games if I were to start putting them in a list. <3

Copying some of this over from my review, just because more people deserve to be convinced to play if they haven't already!

All around incredible game, from the formatting and writing to the characters, artwork, and choices that felt realistic and grounded in reality. Cannot believe I hadn't played Bloomic until now.

Each character is very well established, from their typing style and behaviours to their video call scenes, it's all just too good. Incredible props to the voice actors who brought so much life to this game, along with the fantastic premise and accompanying lore. What a journey that was! I didn't want it to be over, and was enthralled from start to finish. Almost want to say I felt real pain during some of the tense situations, and such a good job was done of imitating awkward group chat moments that I had to take breaks and really think before responding (I say this as a positive, of course)!

I found myself yelling at my computer, putting my head in my hands, laughing, covering my mouth in shock, and damn near crying! What an experience honestly! Love Quest for being the first route I ended up on, but Xyx will forever have my heart <3 <3 <3

Cannot sing enough praises for this game!

(+2)

Me and Quest? We like thisssss 🤞🤞🤞

(+3)

I just want to say that Xyx's voice acting lines should be ILLEGAL. VA did such a good job! They all did actually. I really loved Xyx and also Quest's routes. I think the emotional traumas they dealt with is something that really resonated with me. I wasn't expecting so much character depth in this discord style otome, but I was pleasantly surprised. How'd I become obsessed with this Aussie dork? It's unbelievable that this game is free-to-play, I'm sure many players would be willing to pay ~$10. Will love y'all forever if you guys make after stories (beyond the epilogues) and I'd definitely pledge on kickstarter if it was a project.

Absolutely loved this! I hope we'll get a June or onionthief route someday.

(+2)

despite having heard of his game for a good while, I've only played it now AND WOW I LOVED IT... each route had its own very vivid AND VERY IMMERSIVE storyline, every one leaving me on the edge of my seat! for those who wish to play every route, you def should and you won't regret it~ though, i am completely weak to Toaster and Quest,, glasses just get me.

(+6)

a year later and i still come back to this masterpiece of a game................

(+1)

A friend recommended me Blooming Panic, I love visual novel games even more if they are LGBT+, but every time I want to extract the game's zip files, I get "corrupted file", is there a solution? i really like to play Blooming Panic a lot

The zip you downloaded is for windows

(Sorry if it's misspelled, I haven't learned English very well yet)
