Mino Mino Friendship Simulator [comedy, parody, dating sim/friendship sim][DEMO]

[tonyisaghost]

Hey! We're proud to introduce our game, Mino Mino Friendship Simulator! You play a new student at Mino Mino Academy, and your goal is to make friends. There are tons of people around to befriend, including guys, girls, nonbinary people, cats, demons, trees, closets, and a horse! There are minigames, quizzes, and all sorts of fun surprises in store. Befriend over 15 different characters, have a laugh, and learn a lot about friendship on the way.

Mino Mino is a game that started as a joke but evolved into something more. The characters have heart and personality, and the story is developed and full of humor while still staying true to its core values. We hope to share our story and characters with as many people as we can!

Here's the Indiegogo page!
Here's the link to the demo!

The demo is being constantly updated, soundtrack is undergoing changes, some character models are still being created, and some backgrounds are using placeholders as of now. We'd appreciate support, and thank you for reading!

Played the demo? Questions? We'd love your feedback!

None of the screenshots are showing up on the LemmaSoft page for some reason? I can see them on the Indiegogo page, though, the art style is very cute. :]

Seconding Zelan.

From the demo, I'd have to say that Blayne's name-thing is pretty weird. My username is my initials, so it's really not anything that could be mistaken for an actual name, and so this comes off as less creepily omniscient and more as though the computer's done something wrong... (Also, if I call myself by my initials, they won't correct me at lunch, but they'll still act as though it's not my real name in class.)

Also, the game crashes if I've already met Jayden and voluntarily choose to leave hiding to talk to them:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
ScriptError: could not find label 'exposed_met_jay'.

That aside, the game is fun, and the characters (those I've met) are likeable, even if they like crazy things like pineapple pizza and gherkins. :p

i’m glad you like it! i’m not sure why the pictures won’t display, i’ll have to look into that. as for the error you got, it’s because i had to change jayden’s name and variables and those things keep popping up as errors. i’ll look into blayne’s lines, too- maybe i can make it so that they only say it when certain things are true. thanks for letting me know!

I think the images aren't loading because you're not meant to link directly from Google Drive. Try uploading to Imgur or another similar image host instead. : )

The images work now! c: Julia is super cute, I love her profile! And Myc has some really cool character design, I love those glasses.

These issues should be fixed in the latest build, as well as replacing some placeholder assets. Blayne still does the thing, but it's conditional in literature class too, so if your names are the same they don't comment on it.
