I keep getting an error when I try to run the file, but I think I know the problem!

When you completed the game, did you go to Tools: Build Distribution? That should compile the game into a zip folder (And Mac and Linux equivalent)), which should be put up for download instead of just the .exe. Putting the .exe by itself doesn't do anything, it needs the other files.

Unless you built an installer for it, which would be only an .exe, but based on the size, I don't think that's what you did.

Big piles of music! (Sadly, copyrighted, as are the graphics I assume, which will keep it off the Renai archives)

It's kind of confusing with the way graphics are layered together. Constantly fading from 'hospital bed' to 'fullscreen picture of girl' makes me feel dizzy.

Finding good art is a challenge everybody faces, and the best some people can hope for is to have their art be not too distracting to prevent people from enjoying the story. Unfortunately for me, the different graphics sources and the constant shifting fades *were* too distracting. I can't remember much of anything about the game except that dizzy feeling.

I'd suggest slowing down, writing more descriptions and feelings, and not trying to jam quite so much in. That's a huge download and it's mostly because of mp3s, some of which go by so fast I never even heard the song at all.

Congrats on putting out your first game - now back to work! :)

Wow, those are my favorite songs! XD
Too bad the graphics are taken from another person's...
The story is quite nice and unusual, it was fun playing. Altough sometimes I don't understand, I'm playing as the boy or as the girl? Hehe. Overall it was a fun game for me. Especially the songs. :wink:

Keep making renai games! Practice makes perfect! Yay!

Interesting idea I like it, it is a good idea to change theme types from time to time, wouldn't want to get bored making the same game types over and over.

...oh my god.

This is legendary shit right here. I'll try to articulate my opinions on this... later. But for now...

Holy shit. You have left me without words.

*Edit: On a serious note, I'm TOTALLY going to be cribbing some ideas from this. Specifically the use of mixed media (as it seems you've LITERALLY drew a picture of the heroine, placed it underneath your blanket and took a picture of the bed, which is actually GENIUS).

*Double Edit: Just in case. 10/10.

You know it's illegal to use other people's copyrighted works in a game is bad, correct? .__.

Sorry to ruin the fun but it pisses me off when people do stuff like that... I mean, you could have credited. Ah well don't get mad, kay? Drama Llamas are for morons, and no one wants to be a moron :3 Just sayin'...
