I was downloading the game and my vpn blocked it, saying that it had detected malware in the file. I was wondering why that has happened?

i just finished the game and i’m still kicking my feet and giggling over the “seekLove” ending. seriously, this game was so fun! i loved everything about it – the gameplay, ost, characters, art! odxny is such a cutie~ and so relatable too. thank you so much for this game ♡

no linux :/

Got one here if u cant use the windows version (should work on linux) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HMJqX4wII88545F3sk1IUfqSvQgaeORG

This was an absolute pleasure to play, the pacing was so good and I came out of it feeling attached to all of the characters not just our love interest. Got through it all in one sitting lol I love well written visual novels RAAAAHHHHH THANK YOU!!! :))))))

in the end, after i execute, it still doesnt give me an dialog option so i can keep going with the chat- it is probably right tho help

The same happened to me. It shows the table without the information on it, so I can't continue with the chat.

(+4)

I absolutely loved this game! And the coding part was really fun honestly, i forgot i once knew to do that too haha

Also i got the seeklove ending first, it s amazing! Such a nice and well made game, im impressed!!!

Good job!!! 

The voice acting is on point as well, appreciated the bonus~~

guys i cant get past the damn coding part where you have to figure out the partner name

(+2)

Omg???the music??? Its so good?????!!

(+2)

absolutely loved the game! 10/10! sure it gave me a hard time with the coding but it was well worth it!

(+4)

omg I LOVED THIS. Got the SeekLove ending first try and it's one of the best things ever?? I love him. I love him this is so amazing im screaming aaaa

(+2)

super awesome! loved it. made me laugh lots, I want to get all the endings, but I cant spell and the coding part was a bit tedious, because of the aforementioned not being able to spell. However im sure I will be drawn back to it in due time to get the rest of them!  4242 (: (that was such a cringe way for me to end this help) 

im stuck on the join command bit help. far as im aware im doing everything right, but its still not working???

(+1)

(+5)

I'm just chilling playing the game and mc started talking i was like huh a little familiar i go and check and clear as day its Xyx I'm cooked T^T

(+1)(-1)

Neat little sql puzzle game. Watching the chat brought back some memories. Although the vc was pretty cringe, the game over all is okay and is suitable for (gay) beginners.

(+1)

Loved this game sooo much! The idea is so interesting omg

(+3)

OMG love this game so muchhhh!!!!

I got the seekLife ending at my 1st try, which is pretty good 'cause I dont like bad endings. But I was so curious about the seekLove ending, so I decided to play again to experience it. And helll yehhh that's a good decision to make (I usually dont play any game again for another ending achievement).

I was so surprised by how close I was to achieve the love end. And the ending, it really worth a 2nd play.

LOVEEE THISSS GAMEEEEE!!!!!

(+2)

now i can use sql ig...

but fr loved the game mc and love interest ofc!!!

was tiresome to re-do all sql things but toxic rap def worth it.

I played the game through and he gave me his phone number, I went to call him and then it went to the credits. is that the ending? is it unfinished? Is there a separate ending where I actually get talk to him?

(+3)

the phone call starts at the end of the credits, after they're done you'll see a "hello" that you have to click to start the dialogue. Hope this helps:)

(+2)

This is just perfect. The story, characters, the voice acting.. i love every second of it. I want more of Odxny for sure!

(+3)

stoppp this game is everything im so sad i finished it and wont be able to play it for the first time ever again >_<

(+2)

I love this game so much!! this was very fun to play and I had a lot of fun figuring out what to do lol. 10/10 game.

(+7)

I miss those characters...now I'm missing my friends who don't know my real name and don't even exist. and cried my eyes out for this...even tho I got the love ending, still, why do we have to say goodbye incy Eli and pep...

(+2)

real

(+5)

this is the first game I have actually done in one sitting, most games i have to do over multiple days no matter the length. but this game was so entertaining!!!!

(+4)

just made my account so i could post a review, but i've already played maybe ten times now. nearly every day since i downloaded it. things i hear irl make me think of the server members. seekL has taken over my life.

on a more serious note, this was one of my very first itch.io games and i'm so glad i came across it.

writing code to dig through tables of data for progression is a lot of fun, and personally added just enough of a challenge for me (someone that knows near nothing about programming). add on top of that a cast of completely anonymous yet very unique characters, they all play into creating highly entertaining conversations and lots of memorable moments. 

regarding the interactions with odxny, i felt that the progression goes pretty smoothly. while the romantic aspects are a bit ambiguous, i don't think that's a bad thing- i enjoyed the focus being put on learning who they are as a person. a lot of the calls involve simple conversation or banter, but that's more than enough to help you see them as someone more than just a username on a screen. (although i'd really love to know even more about them. and the other hackers. ougghh.)

also, the bgm is awesome (i'm constantly streaming it), and the va did an amazing job voicing odxny! highly recommend finishing all three endings to get the bonus menu. it'll be very worth your time.

seekL is probably going to stick with me for a long while. it's fairly short and not overly complex, but something about it really clicked with me. i'm excited to start playing through the creators' other projects, but i think i'll end up coming back at least a few more times— this game now has a special place in my heart. :)

(+2)

this game is incredible the visuals, dialogue, and va are just *muah* so funny and good. like all the characters feel so real. also don't know anything about coding but the mini games were still so fun to figure out! odxny is now my husband and loml.

(+3)

Took me a while but the bonus content is delightful. <3

Broo I need help I'm stuck on day three because I don't know what to doooo. It says I have to figure out which of the hospitals works with the insurance company and I don't know how to do that

edit: wait I figured it out, had to go on yt for a tutorial lmao

(+1)

oh my days ive actually LOVED this game absolut perfection but literally in the countdown my game shut?! and at first i thought it was some clever part of the game, actually shuttin it yk. but upon reopening i found that it was an error and considering that i played it in one sitting, no saves. at all. it is a sad day.

(+3)

had me giggling and kicking my feet 10/10 game

Eu adorei, mas não consigo salvar o progresso

Try the build linked here! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HMJqX4wII88545F3sk1IUfqSvQgaeORG

im not finished with this game but if youre a nerd who spent too much time on the internet growing up this game is perfect. dare i say better dialogue than blooming panic (and that is hard to beat). the writers are really talented at avoiding repetitive, uninteresting, unfunny, and dated references and jokes. each of the characters you get attached to but i find odxny and his mental health struggles really relatable so im glad he's the love interest. I also liked the sql aspect of the game (thank god for the guide) its nice to feel productive. i just cant stress enough how good and realistic the writing is. i also appreciate how it doesnt fall into the visual novel trope of trying too hard for quirky dialogue, it feels very natural and its entertaining and endearing. i kinda wish the lu*gi thing happened before this came out so that all the characters could go crazy over it (sorry im too attached)

Better than blooming panic?? Omg now I definitely need to play this

(+1)

That was soooo fun to play, the art is stunning, and I loved the "Missions", the hackers are so fun, and the voice is beautiful! It's really creative, I loveeed it :)

(+1)

So far, I am enjoying the game! The game is so good just like Blooming panic but besides those.. There is something troubling me, I don't know if it's my computer or a bug in the game.. but at the starting intro, Whenever I try to click "Load" It always closes the game and I tried it multiple times to see if it will work but as I kept trying it over and over again, it keeps shutting the game close and I had to reopen it again.


That's not all, during Day 1 whenever I tried to save my progress, it shuts the game too! making me frustrated, I have no problems saving my progress on day 2 and 3 but what drives me the most is that Day 1 keeps shutting the game close each time I click "Save" and "Load" At first... I didn't mind it and I just have to deal with it but as soon as I was at the part where the player has to do the hospital part thingy...It suddenly closes the game! Luckily I had the progress saved but I can't even load it in my progress even during Day 2!

So, if you happen to read this comment, please fix it and thank you! The game is still good and I'm willing to play it
