I just finished chapter 1 and I love it! The dialogue gets a little lofty and pervy at times but that's OK. I
busted out some whiskey and drank with Boss and Jill at the end, it felt like the right thing to do.

I spent a good chunk of my weekend playing this, I'm like 10 hours in but I'm a slow reader so idk how much I have left (I've been on Chapter 2 for a few hours). Honestly I'm not sure if I'm really invested in the world it takes place in, and it took a while for it to hook me, but some of these characters and their interactions are just so raw and entertaining, and Jill's backstory (along with the way it's told) just felt perfect. The soundtrack is really just astonishingly good too. I wish there was more to the actual bartending aspect of the game though.....like, a lot more.

The thing is that it isn't a bartending game with a visual novel around it, it's a visual novel with bartending elements added in.

Edit: Just found my Discovery Weekly playlist on Spotify had one song from the game in it. What a great OST does have the game.

a reference to something they've done before or is it just a teaser for something we don't know about?
 
I'm playing this now. A little over 2 hours in. The soundtrack is already killing me in all the right ways.

Also, love the look of the game. Especially with the added scanlines.

Finished the game in January. Never shared my love for this game with you.

It was fantastic! I mean the soundtrack alone the money. It took some time to get into the characters and the world, but it was worth it. Saying that as someone who is not in VNs.
 
I'll have to play this game again soon. I'm still on chapter two or three, I think--I just know I haven't gotten an ending yet.


I very much enjoy what I've played, and getting more of that is fantastic~!

Got the bad ending. Oh well. I missed that last bill by $300. :(

Am I crazy for thinking that
the ghost is Lenore?

Finished my first playthrough of the game a few days ago. That was fantastic.

Gonna do NG+ soon and try and get all the secret stuff and endings. Gotta play the prologues, too, missed that they were there until I was a good way through.
 
Anxiously awaiting the Vita port. Do we have any news on this front? I saw a Tweet or something on Reddit that said the game was "done" in June. Anything since?
 
Exciting. Pardon my ignorance, but does this usually mean release is in a matter of weeks, months? Seems like something that would happen close to release, which is odd since we don't have a date yet.

After a dev sends out review codes, the game is usually out in a few weeks at most.
 
I ask this question so much these days. Is this coming to Switch or just wishful thinking?

Well in this case it isn't just blind portbegging. It might have been earlier in this thread or another where the devs got some certification for a number of systems, Switch included. I might has misunderstood what that was for/about

Cool that they're planning on adding more content. Also cool that a game like this has managed to sell 190k so far on steam from the looks of things.
