Okay, this was so cute beautiful and I was really feeling down today and this made me so happy just thank you for this experience I-
This game made me laugh and made me love Pastille even more. Thank you, this game is so good. AND THE SOUNDTRACK IS JUST FABULOUS. And, I now love Periwinkle this game made me so happy thank you.
I play on phone and not computer and since today I have wwillbe with my sister and my aunt today cause my parents are leaving I won't have access on computer to play so guess I'll miss this 😅 but I'm excited to play once I'm allowed to use my computer!
It started slow, things "went too well" I thought. "Super gentle, but no pang !". Then before I knew it, I had wet cheeks ^^'
Although I still think your protagonists are "too perfect" in a way. Where are their inner violence and selfishness ? I didn't see them at all - they were like... Too good to be true ? But I like this about your games too - I just wonder if I'd like them more with a little more of "flawed individuality" or "unrequited feeling" cramed into it !
You totaly overdid the cute arts scenes BTW, theses should be forbidden ; I don't get "museum arts" exibits, but I know I could watch yours all day with a grin "gaaah" :D
I don't know if it's really fair to call Nami's protagonists "too perfect". I don't think characters have to be nasty or selfish to be realistic - not everyone is like that.
I understand that conflict is what causes drama in stories and makes the stories interesting, and having flaws in charcters can help create conflict. However, a character can still be flawed without being selfish or nasty. For example, quite a bit of conflict is caused in 'Starry Flowers' by Periwinkle being confused by new feelings and experiences that he doesn't know how to deal with - his inexperience, and his inability to recognise his feelings and face up to them, are flaws in his character. And this depth is given to him without needing to give him negative qualities. Plus, as another example, we have Pastille unsure of what to do because of how others perceive him. This depth and conflict to his character, and his story, comes about from outside forces, and not from making him nastier or stupider or anything like that - because Nami doesn't need to do that!
I personally like to read about charcters who are decent, good people, but who nevertheless have interesting lives, and get into interesting conflicts and have to find ways to overcome them. I think a character can have depth and be a decent person at the same time.
M'well it's kinda true for me too, because I love most of NomNomNami characters nonethelsess. But like, here, it felt especialy like idealized personas . The moxy/mochi/treat trio was too of course, but they fact they had a context of struggle hide it totally to my brain , and I'm just realizing it now trying to find examples to illustrate my thoughts >_<
>I don't think characters have to be nasty or selfish to be realistic
I did mention that, but I thought it in a broader sense. You know, in a relative sense - because we all see life through our own individuality : everything we do is kinda "normal, within logic" to us, while what other's do can often be percieved inexplicably good or bad (while it's just the normal "follow in" thing to do to their perception).
Oh I super enjoyed this!! It was such a joy to see Peri appear again! The art and characters and cute clothing oh my, and the simple dress up option was fun every time! I also very much enjoy gushing over the adorable side characters. You're doing amazing stuff :)
It was a pleasure to test this and give feedback and I am so glad to see it in it's full form now, WONDERFUL art, background, script, music, and all! THANK YOU NAMI!

Just finished playing, and I love love LOVE it!! This is such a cute and sweet game.
Periwinkle's struggle is so well written (and relatable), the chemistry between him and Pastille is sooo cute, and the ending is just heart-warming!!!
Obviously the art is a treat too, and the music is lovely. I also loved the little dressup sequences!
I can't say it enough, this is just the cutest and sweetest game!!! And I'm now sold on Periwinkle x Pastille as the true OTP.
Oh this is gonna be good.
