I'm such a sap for coming of age stories with cringe teens. I like that it frequently locks you out of choices or gives you only undesirable reactions to choose from, makes the main character feel like more of a real person than an in-game avatar for the player. I think if one goes into this knowing what they're getting into - a very straightforward slice of life story about kiddos living in a time of uncertainty - then it would probably land better for them. And yeah the soundtrack and animation quality are fantastic

If you watched the video and thought this super colorful LGBT visual novel with some guitar hero minigames was for you, then you don't need any convincing, it's for you. If you took one look at the designs and thought it was incredibly cringe, it is NOT for you. The characters are likeable and the music is good, and I had a decent time. One play through of the game is going to be about 6-7 hours. To actually see everything and interact with all the characters, you need to play it at least twice, and if you're trying to get all the achievements, it's going to be a minimum of three runs, probably four or five. You can't 100% it in two runs, even with a guide. Unfortunately, there's nothing to warrant that many playthroughs. It doesn't matter if you're mean and cruel, or sweet and supportive, the main story doesn't change and you're railroaded into the exact same fights and outcomes, and I don't think I could deal with the main character and their same drama with that many times. The extra replays are almost entirely to interact with the secondary character of your choice more to unlock a few photos and get some extra dialogue... while the main story is exactly the same. It's maybe 5-10 minutes of new content per six hour run. If there was a NG+ that let you fastforward, or multiple save slots, this would be alleviated some. But while I could see doing two runs (very far apart) there's not enough gameplay and decisions there to warrant basically watching a 6 hour movie 4 times. I also wish there was an option to replay the songs seperate from the story, and to *turn off* the subtitles so I could just hear the dialogue (the whole game is fully voiced) rather than reading it before the characters finish speaking and then having to wait. If it seems like you might like it, get it on sale. You already know if you're the audience or not after seeing a couple screenshots.

One of the better visual novel games to come out recently. Story was very interesting to play through and I love a lot of the characters, just wish there was more of them!! I found some of the dialog and animations to be a bit awkward at times but I don't really mind personally. Music mini game is very fun and the songs are good too! Had a blast with this game.

This is a wonderful game that ends up being more than the sum of its parts. The game's plot plays it pretty safe, sticking to the typical story beats of the "last year of high school" genre (battle of the bands! my parents don't get me! my best friend and I are drifting apart! one of my friends is into tarot cards! etc.). But the thoughtfulness and earnestness of the storytelling, along with some truly charismatic voice acting, manage to rescue the game from feeling cliché. Visually, the game hits way above its weight for an indie studio: the character designs, animation and background art are all really top notch. It feels like a game made by an art department of at least a hundred people, not just a dozen or so. Even though I found them incongruous at first, I understood by the end of the game that the rhythm game mechanics were actually... fun, and also necessary to really drive home the stakes of each musical performance. And speaking of music, the pop/rock songs in the sound track are elegant, ethereal, fun, catchy and full of yearning—a perfect match for the game's characters and the tone of the storytelling. "Goodbye Volcano High" isn't a flashy game. But the care and love that the developers put into each of the game's elements is evident at all times, and those elements come together beautifully to create a really special experience. Recommended!

The game, the story, the characters, the voice acting, and the music are all amazing. Loved every minute of this. It does hit you in the feels hard though at points. Fantastic LGBTQ+ representation, too, with orientation, sex, and gender representation.
