I really recommend people play this VN it's really good
I can't stop myself from gushing over this game! I absolutely positively adore it!!
However, I will not say that it is without its flaws. Where there is light, there will shadow.
First off, the translation. It's very good. Quality language has been used skillfully. Understandably, there are typos and subject-verb discrepancies. I'm sure the authors french version will be much better, but I'm still in the process of learning the language. I still love the authors dialogues nonetheless, they capture the spirit excellently.
The emotes. Clunky. But they have their charm. I like them in some scenes, but spam my keyboard like a maniac at other times.
The length of dialogues. It's nice to see that the game is fleshed out, but I find myself skipping lines at times. But this a personal thing, might be different for others. Some people complain about music. I just turn it off. My brain tunes work better.
I JUST LOVE the characters! All of them are good in their own. <spoiler>Uma's arrogant charm. Selphine's simple grace. Elise's annoying being. Paige's bratty and immature behaviour that flowers beautfully into responsiblilty. Ms. Flores self-doubt that blossoms into sweet sweet love.</spoiler>
Really love the routes. They have good variety. Unexplored tropes, rare emotions, deep thoughts... everything is covered. <spoiler> Looking forward to more Uma content. She's my new favourite. I love the way her character is reflected through her words. </spoiler>
Thank you for making this game. I wish you all the best in your journey onward. I've been trying to get into writing myself, Its so hard to maintain motivation for more than 2 hours. I hope you are blessed with unending creativity and enthusiam.
With admiration,

The game is in dire need of editing for spelling mistakes and lines of French dialogue popping through every so often, but what's here is pretty solid. The concepts are executed well and there's quite a bit of fun to be had in the story. Easily recommended if you liked one of the several other bender bender/body swap remote visual novels on this site and still want more.
