I'm really impressed that you guys made this in a week of the game jam! full story complete with illustration and scenarios! you guys truly dedicated to the creation!
I don't really into romance-themed game tho, but still finished the game because I get really into the story that I can't help myself but to finished it. Overall, I love how you guys slip little gameplay in some part of the game. like the cooking gameplay one at the beginning of the story! it was a good addition for the player to interact more within the game. You guys can put more gameplay into the story to keep the player immersed in the story. The game has a lot of potential!
Personal opinion: I'd wish the story was different. Maybe it's a story about the main character having a diary of an abused little girl and then try everything to help her. Because I felt like 21 y.o. woman doesn't really use diary these days, maybe if she was using social media and tell her story through posts, it'd make a lot more sense to me.
Overall, you guys really put passion and effort into making the game! Truly amazing! :D

Thank you for the feedback! We did have more minigames planned, but had to cut them due to time constraints.
We did want a diary to be the main focus, but I can see how that would seem unnecessary in today's day and age. We probably could have flushed out the story more to make sense of the diary if we had enough time.
The age was added to make sense of a small part of the story which in retrospect made other parts seems off. We will surely look out for such details in the future. Thank you for taking the time to write your thoughts!
