1. When I tried to use the Items option in battle the game crashed.
I can't replicate this bug somehow, are you able to get screenshot of the error? Thanks!
2. The battles appear to be way to difficult. I keep getting curb-stomped by your garden variety blue slimes!
I've reduced initial battle difficulty a bit in the updated 0.1.2 version. However, if you want to make Ban become stronger, please make sure to finish Haves's quest because after that you can buy enhancing potion from him :D
hi, I have a quick question to make sure I get it. I see there are options to upgrade your purchase of $45 +. I sent a email requesting a refund but wonder if I should try to make the $45 or $60 [ which can add a fanbook] now while waiting for an email telling me if I did right? lol or should I wait for the email to my request before doing anything.
You can make the $45+ purchase now if you want. The refund process can take up to a week, it seems (I'm not the one handling the refund, it's the platform's support staff).
I think the milk, wool and eggs stopped selling after the flower festival & here are the errors I got during and after the scene with Moocha and cutting apples in the kitchen for the competion with bully.
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

It seems that during the flower festival for the further year if you go to the police station it blacks out and the competition between Moocha and Bully the lines that I say cut out and you can't see them or go to previous text
Yh and has anyone notest that you cant sell egg,milk and woll items after the flower festival (or is that sposta happen) and it has an error screen that you cant inginor when you got to the ranch (sorry for spelling mistakes)
It's seems there is no point moving forward in the game unit that bug is fixed since you van no longer read anything after you cut your finger with Moocha
How do I access the Beta versions? I've backed the game via Patreon during the crowdfunding phase from Jan-Mar 2020 (total $80), but I no longer use Patreon. Please help!
Do you still use the e-mail address you used for Patreon registration? I should have sent an e-mail there containing Google Forms link for reward survey. Anyway, if you still remember your Patreon name, you can tell me via meyaoigames@gmail.com, but I'm about to sleep now so won't be able to answer in 10ish hour.
so happy i spent $45 (well actually $59 because i live in Australia). I cannot wait to recive early beta access when one character route has been completed :). Thx to MeYaoi for getting in touch with me over twitter. I really appreciated it.
how do they know where to send the items if you purchased one of the tiers? it never asked for an address. I paid $380.00 I just want to make sure is all
Hi there! I'll be sending $60+ backers an e-mail to the registered e-mail address with a Google form for inputting addresses & other details needed (whether you want to be credited, etc). This will be done until closer to rewards fulfillment time as addresses and such can change often.
I really like this game and I´m waiting for it!! But I wonder if you can only buy it here or if we are going to find it someday on Steam. Same with the Seiyuu game.
It sounds like Meyaoi's in the midst of making a new progress video right now, which should update you. You can also check out her twitter: https://twitter.com/meyaoigames She posts a lot of stuff there, definitely worth checking out :)
No, the first Beta isn't out yet. It was originally slated to come out this Jan - March, but the release date has likely been pushed back a bit so that Meyaoi can release the first demo in a complete form (1 romantic route + all festivals, mechanics, events, etc.).
I'd suggest keeping tabs on Meyaoi's Twitter (https://twitter.com/meyaoigames) for relatively frequent updates, but I'm sure once the beta releases we'll all get emails and this itch.io page will be updated 😊
Hi sorry about this, but I pre-order the game the $60 one and its my first time ever per-ordering somthing can someone plz explain to me how it works and when to know if there is any up dates. (sorry about the spelling mistakes, cant spell good). as you can see not really good at this yet, but love your other game and wanted to do it for that when it was in the works but couldnt, so Im doing it for this, + cow boy got to me so cute
Hi there! So, from what I myself understand, as the game progresses and Meyaoi completes a new romantic route, those of us with beta access should receive an email telling us about the update and we can download the latest version from this itch.io page.
As for when we should expect the first Beta version, it was original meant to come out sometime this January-March, but while Meyaoi will still try to make that deadline, it's very likely been pushed back a bit so she can release a Beta Route with all the side-quests, festivals, and mechanics completed.
Meyaoi is pretty good about updating her Twitter fairly often about the game's progress, so I'd recommend following her here: https://twitter.com/meyaoigames
I believe how it works is you would get beta access to the game as it develops, then once the game has it's full release (December 2022 at this point, tho it may be pushed back a bit) then Meyaoi will send the physical merchandise that comes with the collectors edition. And of course you'd have access to the completed game once it releases 😉
Ah, so what that was is you could design a ranch employee that the main character would be able to hire in-game. And yes, I'm pretty sure that option is gone now.
Yes, the beta did end up getting delayed--on New Years Eve, Meyaoi posted this tweet: https://twitter.com/meyaoigames/status/1344742608560562176 saying that she wouldn't be able to make the original beta 1 release date and she conducted a poll asking fans whether we'd prefer a delayed but complete release (includes all festivals, side quests, cooking mechanics, etc.) OR if we'd like an on-time release that was missing elements that she'd add in as time went. The overwhelming response was "Delayed but complete, please" 😅
As for when we should now expect the beta 1 release, Meyaoi hasn't said. I personally am going to guess sometime this summer, (ie: maybe June or July), but it could very well be sooner or later than that.
Basically, I'd suggest following Meyaoi's twitter https://twitter.com/meyaoigames (whether you have an account or not) as she posts updates on her progress fairly regularly there, so that way you'll for-sure be up-to-date on news as it happens 😉👍
Fair enough! There could very well be something behind it, but I think it may just be an aesthetic choice that can be waived off due to the whole "parallel universe" thing. I'll be curious to see if it does have any deeper meaning/implication tho, cuz that could be interesting 😊👍
The first beta version (1 romantic route) will be available sometime this January-March, and anyone who purchased Beta Access will be able to play it and the other Beta versions that get released going forward.
The Final game release is currently slated for around December 2022, so in around two years 😉
Hi, a while ago I queried about what to do if I want to upgrade the game to include beta access and you guys suggested
For upgrade, you can do so by:
- Re-purchase the game at $45 tier
- Then, request a refund on your previous purchase to support@itch.io and stating the reason (for upgrading the tier)
Well, I did so and e-mailed them however I did not receive a reply even after 7 days. Is there any other alternatives to get refund on my original version since I got 2 now?
I'm so excited to play this. I did the whole Patreon thing, so I'll have the beta access. I'm curious, who is going to be the 1 character that we get to romance on the beta access? I'm thinking it'll probably be sexy cow Moocha, since we meet him first, but will it be someone else?
I sometimes get confused with the Quarter Calender too. If it helps I'll put here what the quarter means for beta access and the final game being finished for anyone that's interested. If not 😚 just ignore me~
So for Q1: That's anywhere from January-March 2021. So BETA ACCESS begins with 1 (ONE playable route, NOT the whole game) within Q1 of 2021. So think...AFTER this Christmas we'll likely have 1 available romance route to obtain. From there, you can play the game as it developes and the things added on over time for those who purchased the BETA ACCESS. Those that didn't either need to wait until the game is finished being developed in 2022, or purchase the BETA VERSION.
NOW Q4 is: October-December. So they say that the game will for sure be done by Q4: 2022. BASICALLY, that is Dec of 2022. So about 1yr and a half from this Dec (if you wanna be realistic, that's basically two years away, since right now we're still in 2020). I know, it feels like a long time, but games like this with all the details that get put into them really take 2 yrs to build after they've been funded, sometimes more because most of these developers (artists/authors/voice actors/coders/etc) still have other jobs they need to do along with what they work on for us, and they're also putting in so much detail so it's def worth the wait.
Current expected release date for beta access (playable until the end, but with only 1 romance-able character) is Q1 2021. Expected release date for the final game is Q4 2022.
What is Beta?? If I purchase pre-order ($29.99 USD), I will not download other versions?
And, if I purchase pre-order and Beta Access, I will download only Q1 of Beta version, not Q2 - Q4 versions??
For Beta access: gets to play the game as it is being developed + final version. The Q1 etc is just expected timeframe of update. As long as you get beta access, you will get to download all versions of update.
For Pre-order: gets to play the final version of the game.
Do you mean Howl's route? If so, Howl the wolf 🐺 is already funded☺. You can look up above to see all the 12 available bachelor's the team is developing.
Unfortunately, they cannot add more I would think 🤔 because adding the characters came as part of their crowd funding process. They can only add so many characters based on what funds they get for the game to fund them. Games like this take a lot of funds to produce everything they're providing. Music, voices, versatile characters, coding, art, etc. But I'm still surprised we're getting as many dateable characters as we have😄!
Likely, since you have to pay people to make certain aspects of the game you may not be doing urself so all the money doesn't just go to the main artists or authors. Unless...well, your very lucky and they are talented in everything. Most cases require the main team to hire out voice actors, coders, extra artists to take care of scenes that maybe the main artist can't do or has the time for.
Sadly, this usually leads to most BL otome games having maybe only 4 LIs(romance routes). In this case not only is this the first time I'll be seeing this many achieved and completed, I think it's also really awesome that we get to even have so many!😆 Lol, now I just can't wait!
😮 an owl route? I certainly wasn't paying attention when I played the demo...😅. At main or side characters it seems. I know there was a lion route to achieve and the doctor guy, and that there are prob some other npcs I missed, so sorry about that. I guess it completely passed me that there was an owl character 😅. Well, that's too bad, but I do think it's great they've managed to give us so many characters tho! It will still be nice to have so many routes for once. This year and the upcoming next one, it seems a lot of LGBTQ+ groups, BL/GL game groups, or love otome groups are giving out so many more character routes. So I wonder if this means brands and indie groups are heading in the direction of giving out more options to their players🤔.
Lol so I'm dumb, I just realized Haves was the doctor clinic scientist like dude that showed up briefly in the demo. Didn't realize he was the owl...but now it makes so much more sense!
Omg finally started playing the demo, it's so good! Now I totally want more😆! Also, def loving Yolkie and Cotton right now, their both so adorbs. Thunder makes me laugh, and I love how the loan shark Finn...is totally a shark🤣. I def want to see the MC squirm his way into Yolkie's heart the most right now. *...now I just gotta wait for that beta access🥺...😅it's ok tho, the wait is totally worth it*
Right?!?!?! Yolkie so far is definitely my favorite, he's so sassy! Definitely wanna see how Ban "cracks his shell" and gets close to him, lol!
And yes, the wait is gonna be SO worth it, I can tell--and it's almost over! Like, we've still got 2-4 months to go, but since I've been waiting for almost a year now...2 months is nothin'! Super stoked XD
(BTW, if you haven't been following Meyaoi's twitter, you should definitely go do that! They post lots of updates and progress images for the game there on a pretty regular basis 😄. I legit made my first twitter account for the sole purpose of following this game, lol! https://twitter.com/meyaoigames)
Sadly, the wait for me is actually just starting considering I forced myself to wait and play the demo...🤦♀️, but true waiting now is still is a lot easier knowing how long this game has been in the make. It's too bad it's not a sort of episode release like you see in some VNs, where we could keep playing to build up cash and stuff for the farm ranch. I would be happy just being able to do that since in Seiyuu Danshi I would spend foooorever building up money (even tho it was fun so no complaints there) but it can get tedious when you want to move the story along...but really need the mula😭😭. And thx I'll think about getting a Twitter, never had one before either.
Ah, I feel you, though I personally am probably most excited for either Yolkie or Howl---I wanna see Ban win those tough-to-crack guys over 😉. But Cotton is a major sweetie, and I think he'll grow on me just like Moocha did once I see more CG's with him and Ban and see more of their interactions in-game ❤
"Current expected release date for beta access (playable until the end, but with only 1 romance-able character) is Q1 2021" (AKA, around Jan-Mar 2021) 😉

Just got 2 major issues for now.
1. When I tried to use the Items option in battle the game crashed.
2. The battles appear to be way to difficult. I keep getting curb-stomped by your garden variety blue slimes!
Other then that though, I am still enjoying it! Thank you for making such great games!
Hi there, thanks for the feedback!

1. I don't think I had any items in my inventory when I tried to look, so maybe that's why the game crashed.
2. Thank you! I never thought of that! Time to harass the owl! ;P
Hi, is anybody else having a hard time trying to fish with the icon moving as fast as flash or is it just me?
Tried reducing the fishing speed in latest build. Let me know what you think of it now :)
OMG! yes much better and easier now thank you very much :D

You can make the $45+ purchase now if you want. The refund process can take up to a week, it seems (I'm not the one handling the refund, it's the platform's support staff).
Umm, am I the only one that has this bug/error that skips FALL and goes straight into WINTER when summer is done?
Oops, yeah, that's a bug. Will fix that soon! 0_0
Gotcha, thank you! :)
The fix is up! (but you can only see the change if you revert to before the month is changed to Winter)
I think the milk, wool and eggs stopped selling after the flower festival & here are the errors I got during and after the scene with Moocha and cutting apples in the kitchen for the competion with bully.

It seems that during the flower festival for the further year if you go to the police station it blacks out and the competition between Moocha and Bully the lines that I say cut out and you can't see them or go to previous text
Yh and has anyone notest that you cant sell egg,milk and woll items after the flower festival (or is that sposta happen) and it has an error screen that you cant inginor when you got to the ranch (sorry for spelling mistakes)
Yea, now that you say that it's true they don't even give you them any more
It's seems there is no point moving forward in the game unit that bug is fixed since you van no longer read anything after you cut your finger with Moocha

How do I access the Beta versions? I've backed the game via Patreon during the crowdfunding phase from Jan-Mar 2020 (total $80), but I no longer use Patreon. Please help!
Do you still use the e-mail address you used for Patreon registration? I should have sent an e-mail there containing Google Forms link for reward survey. Anyway, if you still remember your Patreon name, you can tell me via meyaoigames@gmail.com, but I'm about to sleep now so won't be able to answer in 10ish hour.
Gotcha, just dropped you an email. :)
Android version please 🥺
Does keys for the beta come/get sent out at regular intervals? I loved Seiyuu Danshi and can't wait to try Banana Ranch!
Did your development team release a new beta version? I have not received the email (;_;)
I paid $45.00!
Will Patreons who have given over $60 get access to the beta when it releases?
Yeah, if you were a patron during the campaign months of Banana Ranch.
so happy i spent $45 (well actually $59 because i live in Australia). I cannot wait to recive early beta access when one character route has been completed :). Thx to MeYaoi for getting in touch with me over twitter. I really appreciated it.
Thank you for the support! :)
can't wait. is the first character route moocha?
how do they know where to send the items if you purchased one of the tiers? it never asked for an address. I paid $380.00 I just want to make sure is all
Hi there! I'll be sending $60+ backers an e-mail to the registered e-mail address with a Google form for inputting addresses & other details needed (whether you want to be credited, etc). This will be done until closer to rewards fulfillment time as addresses and such can change often.
Hope that answers your question :)
thank you very much that does answer my question and id be happy to donate again next month if still an option
The demo doesnt change right? Even if you keep developing the game the demo stays the same right?
Yeah. Demo hasn't been updated. Haven't had the time to do so x_x
I really like this game and I´m waiting for it!! But I wonder if you can only buy it here or if we are going to find it someday on Steam. Same with the Seiyuu game.
was so excited since q1 would have ended march 31st ;-;
When do you think the beta testing will come out?
My guess is sometime this summer (July/Aug) but Meyaoi hasn't officially said anything, so it could be sooner or later than that ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I'd recommend following her twitter for updates :) https://twitter.com/meyaoigames
It sounds like Meyaoi's in the midst of making a new progress video right now, which should update you. You can also check out her twitter: https://twitter.com/meyaoigames She posts a lot of stuff there, definitely worth checking out :)
i'm play Banana Ranch Demo ver
i like a quality of the character, and they personality.
in demo i don't know the story line yet, and i can't date with a character
the signal is stable so it runs smoothly when playing it
i can't wait for the full version
meyaoi.itch.io try the best in developing it
Hey, I got a problem, why characters have no sound meanwhile the background sound works well
I don't think the demo/game is voiced at this point, so none of the characters should be making any sound right now.
Is beta access out? I ordered beta but still won't let me download
I downloaded the demo version, it hasn't been fully released now .. I can only play the first chapter...
No, the first Beta isn't out yet. It was originally slated to come out this Jan - March, but the release date has likely been pushed back a bit so that Meyaoi can release the first demo in a complete form (1 romantic route + all festivals, mechanics, events, etc.).
I'd suggest keeping tabs on Meyaoi's Twitter (https://twitter.com/meyaoigames) for relatively frequent updates, but I'm sure once the beta releases we'll all get emails and this itch.io page will be updated 😊
Hi sorry about this, but I pre-order the game the $60 one and its my first time ever per-ordering somthing can someone plz explain to me how it works and when to know if there is any up dates. (sorry about the spelling mistakes, cant spell good). as you can see not really good at this yet, but love your other game and wanted to do it for that when it was in the works but couldnt, so Im doing it for this, + cow boy got to me so cute
Thanks for reading
Hi there! So, from what I myself understand, as the game progresses and Meyaoi completes a new romantic route, those of us with beta access should receive an email telling us about the update and we can download the latest version from this itch.io page.
As for when we should expect the first Beta version, it was original meant to come out sometime this January-March, but while Meyaoi will still try to make that deadline, it's very likely been pushed back a bit so she can release a Beta Route with all the side-quests, festivals, and mechanics completed.
Meyaoi is pretty good about updating her Twitter fairly often about the game's progress, so I'd recommend following her here: https://twitter.com/meyaoigames
I hope all this helps 😊
Hi just wanted to say thanks, I understand now thanks so much :)
Happy to help 😊
i already pre-order but is there a way to get access to beta if i just pay the difference.
You bet! A few people have asked this question earlier in the comments, so here's what Meyaoi said to them:
- Re-purchase the game at the $45 tier
- Then, request a refund on your previous purchase to support@itch.io, stating the reason (for upgrading the tier)
Hope this helps! 😉👍
so if u buy Collector pack is the game fully Updated or is it better to wait til it’s fully release?
I believe how it works is you would get beta access to the game as it develops, then once the game has it's full release (December 2022 at this point, tho it may be pushed back a bit) then Meyaoi will send the physical merchandise that comes with the collectors edition. And of course you'd have access to the completed game once it releases 😉
will I be able to get the “play as NPC?” Pack or is it forever no more?
Ah, so what that was is you could design a ranch employee that the main character would be able to hire in-game. And yes, I'm pretty sure that option is gone now.
Who will be the romanceable character in the beta? Cause, I want my first run through to be with the character I want~~~
It's gonna be Moocha the cow :)
So did the Beta get delayed? When do you think it will be out now?
Yes, the beta did end up getting delayed--on New Years Eve, Meyaoi posted this tweet: https://twitter.com/meyaoigames/status/1344742608560562176
saying that she wouldn't be able to make the original beta 1 release date and she conducted a poll asking fans whether we'd prefer a delayed but complete release (includes all festivals, side quests, cooking mechanics, etc.) OR if we'd like an on-time release that was missing elements that she'd add in as time went. The overwhelming response was "Delayed but complete, please" 😅
As for when we should now expect the beta 1 release, Meyaoi hasn't said. I personally am going to guess sometime this summer, (ie: maybe June or July), but it could very well be sooner or later than that.
Basically, I'd suggest following Meyaoi's twitter https://twitter.com/meyaoigames (whether you have an account or not) as she posts updates on her progress fairly regularly there, so that way you'll for-sure be up-to-date on news as it happens 😉👍
Howl has an pretty interesting outfit.
Is there like a specific background why he wears these kind of clothes?
I think it's just his uniform as Chief of Police, though maybe there's more to it, who knows ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Well yeah, at first glance it looked like something out of the 1940's
Fair enough! There could very well be something behind it, but I think it may just be an aesthetic choice that can be waived off due to the whole "parallel universe" thing. I'll be curious to see if it does have any deeper meaning/implication tho, cuz that could be interesting 😊👍
When will the games be out??
The first beta version (1 romantic route) will be available sometime this January-March, and anyone who purchased Beta Access will be able to play it and the other Beta versions that get released going forward.
The Final game release is currently slated for around December 2022, so in around two years 😉
will there be a android version?
It's in the plan, yes, but probably 1-2 months after the PC release since there will be some changes needed to port to mobile.
Hello. Do we have to pay again for the Android version later?
Oh and keep up the good work! It looks so nice already~ your seiyuu danshi already so good so this one must be so good too XD!
Nope, Android version will be provided for free for buyer ^^
Hi, a while ago I queried about what to do if I want to upgrade the game to include beta access and you guys suggested
For upgrade, you can do so by:
- Re-purchase the game at $45 tier
- Then, request a refund on your previous purchase to support@itch.io and stating the reason (for upgrading the tier)
Well, I did so and e-mailed them however I did not receive a reply even after 7 days. Is there any other alternatives to get refund on my original version since I got 2 now?
You can try e-mailing support@itch.io again. Maybe they missed the e-mail.
ok thank you!
Will this game also have Chibi sex scenes? 😭 I wasn’t really a fan of it last game
There won't be any chibi sex scene in this game.
Oooo what would happen to the sex scenes then?
I'm so excited to play this. I did the whole Patreon thing, so I'll have the beta access. I'm curious, who is going to be the 1 character that we get to romance on the beta access? I'm thinking it'll probably be sexy cow Moocha, since we meet him first, but will it be someone else?
I just saw a comment below that it IS Moocha, I'm excited! That's a sexy cow, but I can't wait to play Finn, I love sharks.
Don't tell anyone, but I'm actually really curious about the scenes with Howl, Sterion, and Thunder. I know I will not be disappointed.
Yeah, I also can't wait for Finn either. He is definitely the one i want most. lol
I sometimes get confused with the Quarter Calender too. If it helps I'll put here what the quarter means for beta access and the final game being finished for anyone that's interested. If not 😚 just ignore me~
So for Q1: That's anywhere from January-March 2021. So BETA ACCESS begins with 1 (ONE playable route, NOT the whole game) within Q1 of 2021. So think...AFTER this Christmas we'll likely have 1 available romance route to obtain. From there, you can play the game as it developes and the things added on over time for those who purchased the BETA ACCESS. Those that didn't either need to wait until the game is finished being developed in 2022, or purchase the BETA VERSION.
NOW Q4 is: October-December. So they say that the game will for sure be done by Q4: 2022. BASICALLY, that is Dec of 2022. So about 1yr and a half from this Dec (if you wanna be realistic, that's basically two years away, since right now we're still in 2020). I know, it feels like a long time, but games like this with all the details that get put into them really take 2 yrs to build after they've been funded, sometimes more because most of these developers (artists/authors/voice actors/coders/etc) still have other jobs they need to do along with what they work on for us, and they're also putting in so much detail so it's def worth the wait.
Current expected release date for beta access (playable until the end, but with only 1 romance-able character) is Q1 2021. Expected release date for the final game is Q4 2022.
What is Beta?? If I purchase pre-order ($29.99 USD), I will not download other versions?
And, if I purchase pre-order and Beta Access, I will download only Q1 of Beta version, not Q2 - Q4 versions??
Hi there.
For Beta access: gets to play the game as it is being developed + final version. The Q1 etc is just expected timeframe of update. As long as you get beta access, you will get to download all versions of update.
For Pre-order: gets to play the final version of the game.
THX!
I need Beta version!! For final version!!
You can also play final version with $29.99 pre-order, but with beta access you get to play the game early as it is developed :)
I purchase this game now
But I can't download it yet. When could I download this game?
sorry to bother.
First release of beta is estimated to be Q1 2021 (Moocha route)
Is it possible to get Haves route:(( I really really want his route. I wish there would have a event or something to get him in the future👉👈
.....I'll be disappointed😭
Please😘
Do you mean Howl's route? If so, Howl the wolf 🐺 is already funded☺. You can look up above to see all the 12 available bachelor's the team is developing.
Unfortunately, they cannot add more I would think 🤔 because adding the characters came as part of their crowd funding process. They can only add so many characters based on what funds they get for the game to fund them. Games like this take a lot of funds to produce everything they're providing. Music, voices, versatile characters, coding, art, etc. But I'm still surprised we're getting as many dateable characters as we have😄!
Likely, since you have to pay people to make certain aspects of the game you may not be doing urself so all the money doesn't just go to the main artists or authors. Unless...well, your very lucky and they are talented in everything. Most cases require the main team to hire out voice actors, coders, extra artists to take care of scenes that maybe the main artist can't do or has the time for.
Sadly, this usually leads to most BL otome games having maybe only 4 LIs(romance routes). In this case not only is this the first time I'll be seeing this many achieved and completed, I think it's also really awesome that we get to even have so many!😆 Lol, now I just can't wait!
Haha, I mean Haves's route. The owl one, you know😓
😮 an owl route? I certainly wasn't paying attention when I played the demo...😅. At main or side characters it seems. I know there was a lion route to achieve and the doctor guy, and that there are prob some other npcs I missed, so sorry about that. I guess it completely passed me that there was an owl character 😅. Well, that's too bad, but I do think it's great they've managed to give us so many characters tho! It will still be nice to have so many routes for once. This year and the upcoming next one, it seems a lot of LGBTQ+ groups, BL/GL game groups, or love otome groups are giving out so many more character routes. So I wonder if this means brands and indie groups are heading in the direction of giving out more options to their players🤔.
Lol so I'm dumb, I just realized Haves was the doctor clinic scientist like dude that showed up briefly in the demo. Didn't realize he was the owl...but now it makes so much more sense!
Omg finally started playing the demo, it's so good! Now I totally want more😆! Also, def loving Yolkie and Cotton right now, their both so adorbs. Thunder makes me laugh, and I love how the loan shark Finn...is totally a shark🤣. I def want to see the MC squirm his way into Yolkie's heart the most right now. *...now I just gotta wait for that beta access🥺...😅it's ok tho, the wait is totally worth it*
Right?!?!?! Yolkie so far is definitely my favorite, he's so sassy! Definitely wanna see how Ban "cracks his shell" and gets close to him, lol!
And yes, the wait is gonna be SO worth it, I can tell--and it's almost over! Like, we've still got 2-4 months to go, but since I've been waiting for almost a year now...2 months is nothin'! Super stoked XD
(BTW, if you haven't been following Meyaoi's twitter, you should definitely go do that! They post lots of updates and progress images for the game there on a pretty regular basis 😄. I legit made my first twitter account for the sole purpose of following this game, lol! https://twitter.com/meyaoigames)
Sadly, the wait for me is actually just starting considering I forced myself to wait and play the demo...🤦♀️, but true waiting now is still is a lot easier knowing how long this game has been in the make. It's too bad it's not a sort of episode release like you see in some VNs, where we could keep playing to build up cash and stuff for the farm ranch. I would be happy just being able to do that since in Seiyuu Danshi I would spend foooorever building up money (even tho it was fun so no complaints there) but it can get tedious when you want to move the story along...but really need the mula😭😭. And thx I'll think about getting a Twitter, never had one before either.
Anyone else most excited for Cotton's route? Hunny is stealing my heart as well as a close second.
Ah, I feel you, though I personally am probably most excited for either Yolkie or Howl---I wanna see Ban win those tough-to-crack guys over 😉. But Cotton is a major sweetie, and I think he'll grow on me just like Moocha did once I see more CG's with him and Ban and see more of their interactions in-game ❤
Hello! does any know the expected time frame the beta version will be launched?
"Current expected release date for beta access (playable until the end, but with only 1 romance-able character) is Q1 2021" (AKA, around Jan-Mar 2021) 😉
anyone besides me hoping sharkboy Finn has more in common with sharks than teeth and gills? :-p
Let's hope the double "n" is the only thing double about finn, know who my first romance goal is gonna be >_>.
LOL!!! Well, thank you for making my google search history even more bizarre than it already was 🤣🤣🤣
Hello, is gonna be full voiced this time or this game will not have voice actors?
I wanna know too. :(
Same, the voice really make a difference :c
