I can get Hiroshi's reaction to Alice's desire for a tattoo, and Japanese schools would most certainly not allow it as Tattoos are traditionally associated with Yakuza and other criminals. As for the uniforms, honestly even series that place in contemporary times go with the Sailor Fukus because it's such a popular style - though given the time back, I'm guessing Goon's suppose to be reliving Highschool in the 90s.

There's a lot of neat mechanics in this game, but it seems to be just on the side of tedious, doesn't help the art really is amateurish.

Is Aya suppose to be such an unlikable rear end in a top hat, because holy hell.

When I looked, the  are both out of date and extremely sketchy, so buying it legit is literally the best option.

I feel like if they didn't go for Voice acting at all, they could've used the money saved to hire a better artist - the VAs are nice, but the art probably caused a lot of people to click away.

Voice acting doesn't make too great of money, so not surprised they'd voice these indie projects if someone ponies up the cash. But I have to agree, they could've focused more on QoL features

pretty much, as OP stated - we ended being absurdly lucky to get an ending as early as we did.

Wow, Aya is such a brat - I say we do her path ASAP and get it over with so we can just dunk her completely.

all the more reason to get Aya out of the way, it's amazing she was suppose to be the 'mascot' character when she's such a massive rear end in a top hat. Like Hiroshi's a loving jerk, but he's full of himself and does care about his sister. Aya is just mean for no reason a lot of times (there's better way to write her not tolerating Rena's weirdness where she doesn't end up coming off as a massive bitch, but what we see in game is her being a bully), and with Kiku, etc. - she comes off as a fair-weather friend that blows people off the instant things don't go her way.

Very few writers can do Tsundere well - Aya is just the most extreme. Sad thing is, I can kind of get why she's so upset - it does kind of scan as Kiku taking control of her project, and she never did like Rena even if it's for stupid reasons, but she just handled it in an extremely childish and nasty matter that wins no favors.

Really the rest of the game looks interesting, Aya aside, but the lack of skip is inexcusable.

Seriously, why there's no auto-skip is a mystery, it's not even that difficult to program in Ren'Py

SSNeoman posted:Huh that game is translated? Dubiously - the translation is crowd-sourced and it SHOWS. The secondary characters name change between the Chinese Name, and a literal translation, several spots where it's clear the translation was by a non-native speakers, and several (Namely the Go and Painting game) are left untranslated. Like it's still a fun game and generally understandable unless you hit an untranslated spot, but sadly apparently they completely abandoned the English side of the game, so no added story content or improved English for us.

There's also buying such an extremely expensive gift is pretty awkward especially if you're not super close to the person.

Jolene posted:So glad this LP updated. Shira Oka had to have been a massive undertaking, and I'd say it's pretty well put together... if it was a free fangame. the price isn't that bad given I've seen what shoddier VNs being sold at, it just really lacks QoL mechanics this game sorely needs.

Haifisch posted:I've seen worse art than that in other VNs. The art here is just slightly wonky instead of anatomically impossible. yeah there's VNs on steam that while technically more proficient, I find much more appalling to look at because the artist was clearly designing with one hand so to speak. Or have terrible design sense - like Major/Minor where technically the sparkledogs are more technically advanced than Shira Oka's, but the awful color palettes, nonsensical costumes and lack of unity makes them so ugly.

it's a pity the they didn't or couldn't give the game more polish before releasing it, a skip seen text button alone would've bumped it up to a cult gem, because there's a lot of creativity and heart in this game.

it's the Akane Tendo school of cooking, like good sense to know potatoes and apples have similar textures - but not enough sense to realize you can't swap one for the other in a recipe like that. The mayo pie sounds atrocious.

You can see the germs of a good game under all the jank, just it really needs a lot of QoL improvements to make the looping mechanic less tedious to actually play through.

I guess since I've played early Hanako Games (which had some pretty bad art) I don't see it as quite as needed, especially for an indie game.

It's weird given all the off the wall things that happen that the suspension of belief breaks at a school inviting a graduate to compete and Hiroshi accepting. Thought accepting it is just going to play into the idea this is where he peaked and all downhill from here.
