I really like this game, however, I feel that the pacing was a bit off. I'd recommend you play through your game again to see what I mean. I was so excited by the funny and interesting beginning to the game, and then... five minutes later, it was over. Also, I noticed that, at least in Lilly's path, the "<3" virus is never explained. I know it is explained in the summary, but it's a bit odd that we never really hear the full story in the game--particularly considering the virus is the game's namesake!

I agree, Bao's route is too short. But I'm happy regardless. He's a cutie.~

The BL ending thrilled me to bits. I thought it was adorable. I liked having our blondie to myself too though. :P

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought Xbox too... Lol.

blargh, why wasn't I informed of the new posts. ._.

@Fluffycrow: Thanks for the critique. XD I agree it probably is short in general. This is my first attempt at a game like this, so it wasn't anything terribly ambitious. It doesn't excuse the pacing, but that is basically the reason.

Now that you point it out, the virus probably could be explained better. Or..planned better. for that matter. I think I just couldn't explain further because I really hadn't planned past simply what the virus does. Now how it works, or where it came from. The latter because Lily only knows what it does, not where it came from. I was actually planning on following up on the virus' history in a later work, but it's kind of in development hell right now. XD;

@Riviera Duely noted. XD I had my reasons for making Bao's so short, but it seemed that backfired. I hadn't expected him to be so well liked. >3< and thank you~~~ I'm glad you liked that last minute addition. xDD and really, Zed is such an obvious XBOX analogy, I'm not sure what else you would think. XDD

@ Carosene >3< yey

I loved this game to bits! (Lame joke is lame)
There's one ending I still haven't found, but Zed's ending(s) were enough for me anyways xD
(Although since I got the BL one first, when I got the IME one I felt bad for Edwin. It kind of felt like Zed might leave "me" for him too D: Should I have told him? >3< I WANT my beloved to be happy [known trope is known] but... with me :3 )
And Bao is so cute!~

:D eee, Hello there fellow troper!

and thank you~ cX I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Haha, I can kind of understand that, though I hadn't thought of it that way before. xD When I was writing, I kind of assumed you'd get the normal Zed ending first, since it's more intuitive.

That would be Ime's "neutral" end.
Basically, go through Lily's route, so that she figures out a cure for the virus, but don't go with her when she tells you she's leaving.

If I recall, for this one I used Manga Studio for the lines, and Photoshop for the colors/organizing the portraits. :D

Is that free? x3

I have Photoshop, but it's kinda hard to make the lineart/sketch with it. -.-;
