The reason I dislike Derek has nothing to do with the kill-stealing incident. If the game mechanics of the MMO allow kill stealing, then kill stealing is a valid move and Merui is just being a sore loser.
I actually have three reasons for disliking Derek:
1. He tries to get emotionally close to Merui while lying about being Alistair. That makes him a devious scumbag.
2. If you accuse him of being Alistair while not on his path, he tries to weasel his way out of his agreement with Merui. That makes him an oath breaker, which is worse than a devious scumbag.
3. He's a jock. Which is admittedly a shallow reason for disliking him.

Re: RE: Alistair (Otome dating sim/stats raising visual nove
^___^ I loved playing this. I aww'd. Derek is more my type, but I was immediately drawn to Travis.
Very well-made game, and you deserve all the praise you're getting!!
I agree with adding a date overlay, or having the status menu pop-up every day -- but more importantly, I suggest adding buy buttons to the shops -- the menu choice after selecting an item was very counterintuitive when just browsing.
Forget my suggestions, it's a great game how it is!

Re: RE: Alistair (Otome dating sim/stats raising visual nove
I sort of guessed that
Shiro is Fiona after my first playthrough where I got Travis' ending after accusing Derek. I was wondering, "Since I think all 3 guys must play this game one way or the other, and Derek is Alistair and Travis is Oda, that only leaves one person, right?" And then after that, I noticed Fiona's speech style ("Ara...", Japanese for something like "Erm"), and how 'she' is so obsessed about homework, then I sort of convinced myself. So the ending wasn't very surprising, though I liked it when other guys confront Derek when you're confronting him. Especially Travis. That epic MOD POWURS thing was amazing. XD

Re: RE: Alistair (Otome dating sim/stats raising visual nove
Finally got a chance to play this - and it was worth the wait! I loved the art and the concept. Much of the dialog was really well written too. I felt I did figure out Travis' secret way to fast, as well as Derek's, but Shiro
I liked the characters a lot, as they really each had their own little quirks that made them seem more really than other characters I have encountered. Travis was easily my favorite, and will I found myself liking Derek as a character, I found him too much of a dislikable person to enjoy his route very much. His motivations never really seemed justified at all especially when
Art was amazing, right up there with some of the professional stuff I've seen, so that made the game all the more enjoyable.
Overall I really, really, superduperly enjoyed the game. Great work, doubled by the fact this was done in two months. Awesome job guys!
turning out to be Fiona
completely caught me off guard, so much so that I had to read it twice. I didn't see it coming at all. And it made up for my fast guessing on the other two.

1. ...xD; Well, actually I'll agree with you on that one.
2. I don't know about you, but when I did that during Travis's path, it just made Travis more awesome. I know, that isn't helping my case much, but the game was awesome...r.
3. Okay, fine, fine, I see your point. (doesn't like them much either)

Yes, I to really enjoyed the game. Plan on getting all the endings after the end of the month.

Re: RE: Alistair (Otome dating sim/stats raising visual nove
This was a really cute and beautiful game! I had a hard time at first getting a good ending, but after a few play-throughs, I understood the pattern and was able to get all the good endings with relative ease. It was also pretty painless to play through multiple times (I liked that it was short and sweet) and I wasn't bothered by having to take time to find all the endings and complete the art gallery. The writing was good and the plot flowed well. I even found myself playing the game over again (or from a saved point towards the end) just to read the endings again.
My favorite character was Shiro, probably because I like smart/shy/school-focused guys, and he was the most like my real-life boyfriend . When I was on Derek's path, I had a hard time

making myself watch so much TV instead of studying, and go to the mall instead of working on the project, probably because I am a nerd at heart. I figured out that Derek was Alistair, and Travis was Oda pretty early on and before I got their endings, but was surprised that Shiro was Fiona, even though it should have been obvious in retrospect, given that they both care so much about schoolwork.
Anyway, it was a very enjoyable game. The art was excellent and very cute, and the mall was a really cool idea. I liked that the RPG elements were there, but not too complex. I'm not too much of an RPG fan, but I liked the way you incorporated it here, along with the usual VN elements. It created an interesting parallel between Merui's RPG world, and her real life (which, to us, the players, is also an RPG). Not to get too philosophical, but it's kind of a meta-RPG in that case, isn't it? Although it would be nice if I could find a way to become more popular by watching TV in real life. -

Re: RE: Alistair (Otome dating sim/stats raising visual nove
I couldn't get good endings without the walkthrough, but it was a lot of fun! I did like Derek ok (my sister loved him, and let it be noted, she is not an otaku) though I probably liked Shiho the best. X3 Though I thought all the guys were really more likeable than in any otome game I've played. o.o (Though I suppose I haven't played too many...) It was awful when they were hating on each other, 'cause it was like, "Wait, I love you, but I love him too, dammit, can't we work out some polyamorous type situation?" XD
In any case, everything was great, the art was great, the writing was great, the concept was great, the gameplay was great, I really loved everything. Keep it up!

I enjoyed this game. The characters were fresh, and despite of being otome game, it was fun.
I would like to join Blue Lemma in the front of "We wan't merui fanservice" too.
Oh and minor nitpick, GM as far as I know stands for Game Master, not Global Moderator...
