I will finish the novel, but I just want to address the start menu and just the menu panel in general.
Personally, I was a little confused/overwhelmed. Don't get me wrong, the menu is super cute and I do like the design of it, but sometimes it glitched out for me in that the 'return' button would kind of move back and forth? I'm not sure if that's just me or...?
Oh, that was actually intentional! It's a hover animation. Maybe it looks a little glitchy in the build? I'm not sure. Sorry about that!

By the way, did Carver like Ginger since before? Because I got that feeling while playing the game but I might be wrong
Beeenjamin is so cute and innocent! I really enjoyed his route a lot!
I felt really bad that Ginger keep on kicking him out. The poor guy just wanted to try some pastries
I felt even worse when he got back with his feet clean and still he was kicked out. It just broke my heart! However, in Carver's route it was really funny when he did not understand Carver and Ginger wanted to be alone xDDDDD
Radley's route is just...just RADS!! WHY?!
He was so kind and understanding!!! He knew she was using him and he didn't care!! He was ok with it!! and he still show up to cheer her up!!! HIS HOUSE HAS A PICTURE OF HE AND GINGER AND ONE OF GINGER ALONE!! HE JUST LOVER SO MUCH IT'S TRAGIC!!
Yes Team Carver! -high five- I'm so glad you like it!
I think Carver had a crush on Ginger a long time ago when they were still learning together, that sort of got spoiled by their rivalry.
Yes Benjamin is adorable <3
I KNOW RIGHT DRAWING RADLEY'S HOUSE I WAS LIKE THIS POOR GUY
ahem. I hope you didn't play Radley's route first xD
iusername wrote:- Did you enjoy it overall?
yes! though i only saw best endings and not the bad endings.
- What was your favorite part?
Carver's ep9+ep10 ending
I really liked Carver's route. my most favorite route! it was most enjoyable. i ended up liking all the characters in his route
well i became fond of other characters like Radley and Benjamin at the end of the route, but not at the beginning.
i loved Carver and Ben's interaction and their possible friendship
- What parts could be improved upon?
i liked the notebook doodling where you click episode, but it would have been cuter if it changes every time i finish an episode
is Ginger also heroine's last name? even though i changed the name, sometimes others or herself say Ginger when calling the heroine
also, in Radley's route, i feel iffy watching Carver scene, they don't have to become friends, but at least heroine/Radley and Carver would learn to respect one another.
i didn't think much of both heroine and Carver talk of bring each other down since this is comedy game and they are rivals and they actually didn't sound that bad regarding their backgrounds, personalities, and circumstances.
BUT it felt so wrong when Radley called Carver's dessert as junk food, especially since i already finished Carver's route before. JUNK FOOD? if i think about how this game world works, that's a huge insult and i couldn't help feel iffy about Radley especially since Radley was kinda outsider of this rivalry. also he was the one to suggest to go and buy at Carver's. i wished Carver had forced them to leave his bakery just like heroine does it. heroine and Radley even mess up the dessert on purpose sometimes.
i did best ending for Rad, but there was no episode about green skirt he gave to heroine. it would be cute to have a story of it
- Who was your favorite character?
Carver. His looks and personality were most attractive to me
i found him very amusing and cute. i guess it's because he's a character in the game and not real
but he definitely has some good qualities just like other characters have some bad qualities
to be honest, all the characters have bad and annoying sides, so i am not sure if Carver is actually that bad or not
he's narcissistic, but he does have talent for it. he does not have a social skill but sometimes i think his heart is kinder than both heroine and Radley
I love Carver in all three routes
besides i really like the name Carver. the name suits him perfectly
- Would you like to see more games from Gourmet Visual?
YES!
- Any other random comments!
I like how you used oven and bakery stuff as phrases
i found it enjoyable seeing the heroine trying hard to flirt XD
i love the pick up lines XD they are very creative
i like that the fact that she had to face the consequence of trying to manipulate the guys.
Nothing is wrong with it, but i felt really bad when i found out that green skirt was given by Radley and what heroine thinks about Radley in general when i was on Ben route, especially since i already did Radley's route before T^T
hmmm Radley's route was my least favorite to be honest. I feel iffy about Carver junk food scene and Ben wet feet rejected scene
So glad you liked Carver's route! We were going to do changes in the diary, but just ran out of time. If we ever do something similar though we'll definitely include that! The Ginger thing was a mistake on my part, it will be fixed in an update coming soon! I know I felt so bad for poor Carver at the junk food thing. And that green skirt sort of just became a running thing between the routes, we didn't end up addressing it directly xD
I'm glad you liked Carver so much! We tried to show in his route the differences between how the heroine sees him and how he really is.
Oh pastries, the bakery phrases were so fun. And the pick up lines gave us some trouble but I'm glad you liked them in the end xD
Yeaaa doing Radley's route last is probably the best way to go ^^;
I'm glad you enjoyed the game overall!

The art is super well done~! It added even more charm that some of the backgrounds had pictures, similar color schemes, and the characters felt like they belonged in there.
I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to your next otome
Yaaay I'm so happy you liked the art! We look forward to bringing you more otome's soon

I mean, shiz, I loved the game so much, I love the characters and everything, but maybe playing Radley's route first was a horrible decision of mine, haha. (Warning to anyone else who just downloaded the game and haven't played it yet, DON'T play Rads' first. You're gonna have a bad time.)
No shiz, seriously. It's my biggest regret to this day, because right after playing through the other guys' routes, I just... hIS FEELINGS WEREN'T ONLY SHOWN IN THE END, THEY WERE ALWAYS THERE! (ಥ﹏ಥ) LIKE THAT mOmENT IN Carver's route, he just stiffened and there was a clear reaction from him, AND THEN HE GOES AND DELIVERS THE KILLING BLOW BY BEING THAT TRAGIC SHOUJO-GENRE SECOND L.I: "Ah, Ging. Nobody could hate you." FUGGING WHY? (╥﹏╥) and, AND DON'T EVEN FORGET HIS HOUSE! dammit... wHENEVER I ENETER HIS HOUSE, MY HEART JUST... grAH! Since I finished the other guys' routes, I'll have to replay Rads' just to wash out the sadness and guilt in me.
aNYWAY. Radley may be my favorite out of them all, but that doesn't mean I don't feel guilty about the other two. Liek, y, y u do dis?! THAT ONE DAY WHERE THEY FOUGHT, (Carver), I just... GRAH! But then Beeeenjamin comes in too, so then I'd still feel guilty especially when kicking him OUT.
Overall, great game. I quite like the design of the main menu and the beautiful cake which sports the names of our characters. It's very matching with it all, and I didn't experience any glitches myself, so, ja.
Yeaaaa doing Radley's route last was definitely the way to go xD I'm so happy you enjoyed it! And yay for no glitches! ;u;

The day format was also super good, also the progress bar was super helpful, overall I enjoyed this game A LOT, the lenght was also perfect, and I liked that even if you chose a route the other characters still appeared, some games tend to forget that hahaha. Lastly.... I LOVE CARVER SO MUCH UGHHH. Good job!!!
Edit:
- Did you enjoy it overall?
YASSS
- What was your favorite part?
All of the Carver route.
- What parts could be improved upon?
There was a bug when Benjamin came to your shop asking for a job, it didn't call me the name I chose, it called me Ginger.
Besides that... uhh well any game could be improved by voice acting I guess.
- Who was your favorite character?
CARVER. Then the MC.
- Would you like to see more games from Gourmet Visual?
YASS. MORE CARVER GJKSDFGJDLS
- Any other random comments!
Text before this hahaha.
Team Carver ftw! I've fixed the Ginger name thing, it'll be updated soon! We tried to put all the characters in every route a good amount. Thank you for your comments and so happy you liked it!
lazykitsune wrote:Hello! I haven't played an otome game for a while, and I really enjoyed playing this one!
- Did you enjoy it overall?
Definitely! Everything was just perfect, the length, the art, the music! I really liked that you could replay any day in the diary screen too, that was helpful for redoing a choice haha.
- What was your favorite part?
Every time Ginger would use a pickup line. There was a point when I had to stop playing and take a moment to lie down and let them sink in before laughing my butt off!
- What parts could be improved upon?
Having a skip button in the dialogue box might have been more useful. Also some of the menu was hard to understand, but I didn't really use it much.
- Who was your favorite character?
I thought I would fall for Benjamin so I did his route first, but after playing all the routes, I ended up falling for Carver! Who would've known?! Not me, hahaha!
- Would you like to see more games from Gourmet Visual?
Of course! This game was done very well!
- Any other random comments!
Congratulations on completing this game! It was great!
Everything was perfect?! e0e Thank you so much! There was a skip button, if you clicked the menu button! A lot of it we had to do kind of strange because of the iOS and android builds, sorry about that! Glad you enjoyed the game!

I'll answer your questions after getting more through the game, but congrats and looking forward to more!
Yaaay I hope you like what we come out with next!
