Finally got to play the game.... and man Mikey you sure know how to make people think.
Playing the game what i felt was: "Man and i thought i has having problems at school....". In a crazy Ren'ai kinda way i't manage to move me to work even harder than i do....
*note to self... if you feel bad, play Mikey's games and you'll get a morale boost...*
Got the first ending at my first try... forgot to check the time for it

Glad you liked it - I actually thought of MS when you posted that message in the General area ^_^ (yeah, it wasn't too ^_^ back then). Ending 1 - well, there is no ending 1 in fact (that might have been Path 1) as there is only one ending hidden behind the password which you will have to scrabble together when you go through all 6 paths. I think THAT is the true ending, hope you can somehow achieve it - though I've been told that people liked their first path the best, especially in MS. Have fun!

Excellent game mikey! The backgrounds, the music, Haruhiko's thoughts... absolutely superb atmosphere. It's a rather interesting perspective, btw. It brings some things in my life to a whole new light.
I don't know about liking my first ending though (path 6). If anything I'd have prefered one where I just told the parents and gotten the whole sorry mess over with.

lol I doubt it! mikey likes to revel in one's inner pscye too much. ...Then again, he may just pull a fast one on us one day!
UPDATE:
I just played MS again and indirectly (as in a rather round-about-way through the various choices), Haruhiko does just what I would've prefered. And I have the password almost figured out... Hmmm....
UPDATE (...again):
Ha! Success!
lol Octopus! ^^ Nice touch in the end where you focus on her hand. All in all, it was sweet.

I liked MS although to be honest I don't relate to Haruhiko, I have the same trouble trying to study as he does I think most people do but I seem to do perfectly fine regardeless, imagine my surpirse when after writing my first two fan fictions that I had gone up three grades in my english test! It's not studying that helps but enjoying the application of what you learn, that's what drives you to learn more about a subject you enjoy.
All this said, I do sympathise with poor Haruhiko except for the one ending where he considers that he can't make others suffer by living, what kind of self involved jerk thinks that will help any thing! It would drive Natane to depression I'm certain and what about his own parents! Plus what if natane's parents think that they're responsible for it? (which they are!)
The little romance scenes were fantastic and coupled with the music it all almost over came me, but I stayed strong! *sniff* And it's a refreshing change not to sit there mentally egging the characters on, but to have a complete mind blank instead.
I have to say the whole game is like watching a flaming train wreck (in a good way!) in that it was tragic but I couldn't tear my self away until I saw it burn itself out..... brilliant!

Glad you enjoyed the game. I know it may be hard to relate to Haruhiko, but then again he was never intended to be universally likeable for all. He is someone who doesn't just run in danger of failing, he actually does fail. On the other hand the part where he doesn't want others to suffer by him living doesn't necessarily imply he wants to hurt himself or worse. It's there to show just how much the disappointment in the eyes of others is hurting him.

Um, just a question-- when I first run into Natane at the bus stop, there is a line about "the pride of second graders"
Ah, where I come from, second graders are like, seven or eight years old. How old are Haruhiko and Natane supposed to be?
I know, this might be answered somewhere above, but I didn't want to read the previous posts and spoil anything.
