it's a solid 5.5/10 but you will have fun i don't really play visual novels to be honest but this one took my interest somehow. background secrets, characters and their developments were fun to engage with. it needs some more foreshadowing on the upcoming events. minigames were fun but them not having any actual effect was a downer. i don't know why we can't progress with the characters as we please or at least plan our playstyle around the neccesary events like going to classes and home etc. dialogues were very restrictive and not clear. it could've been so much better.

I tried to get all the achievements, I couldn't get one, even when I learned how to do it. In the first 2-3 hours when I was playing to try different endings, I suffered a lot because I never used the save game, so I got very bored trying to go through the text quickly. I didn't understand the story the first time I finished it, but as I continued for the different endings, I more or less understood it. I really liked the artwork and design, I felt like it was inspired by the DDLC, and I realized while playing that there are a lot of things that could be improved and made better, but these are small details. For being the first game you've released on Steam, you've done a pretty good job. Overall, I can't say that the story drew me in. I'm very torn, I recommend the game because of Marcel.

Departed Away is a short visual novel, with lovely pixel art and good OST. Plot is quite interesting and leave you wanting to know more about the characters, the negative point is that you dont have skip button so when you make a rerun you will grew a little bit bored.

This game really surprised me, especially as it is the developers first visual novel. The art is beautiful, the characters are well written and the story writing is absolutely top tier. Its one of, if not the best visual novel I've ever played. There's allot of story to uncover in this game and that's why you have to play it through multiple times to find the whole truth and solve mysteries from other play through's. But in the end, its 100% worth it. This game is a 10/10 I highly recommend giving it a try. Its truly a hidden gem.

That was really fun experince before i tried to get all achievements. Really loved the artstyle,funky music,humor,references and girls. (Ms. Daisy best waifu). Also enjoed Marcel`s story. I wish I could choose my gender in the beggining to romance her. Talking about getting achievements - please add the abillity to skip text that i already read. I`m tired of clicking,,, In the end i want to say that it`s awesome for the first game you made. Really waiting for the new updates. Good Luck !
