A Yaoi VN? Good luck whoever enjoys it but I'm certainly not the target audience.

Honestly, I don't think this game will sell much here. But Gog probably had to test the waters and see if there's an audience and that's only reasonable for a game store. Just don't expect my money this time.
Yeah, I have most visual novels here, but Yaoi together with the art style kills all interrest in me. Sorry and good luck with that.

I like Visual Novels but this doesn't seem like my cup of tea.
Would definitely bite the neck of the next Milky Way Prince in the most unfriendly way.
God knows why.
Well this sure looks like something that should be free to play on itch.io.
What is this? I cant even comprehend this
*head explodes
GOG's "curation" never ceases to amaze me.
Thanks for the release! Nice to see a BxB title, too, which is surprisingly rare in VNs. Might pick this up given the price :D

Surprised that this released here before something like, say, We Know the Devil or Heaven Will Be Mine. I didn't think GOG liked "indie art" (based on prior VN releases)... but if this is releasing here, then please consider these other titles! They both have great settings and story, especially Heaven Will Be Mine with its cyberpunk/transhumanism themes. They both tick boxes for queer rep, too :P

Indeed.

How so? The style maybe a bit of a matter of taste, but quality wise it looks better than 95+% of the visual novels released on Steam?

Aside from how ridiculous it is that non-owners apparently down-vote this game over gay content.

That's setting the bar so low it's practically burried next to the Earth's core.
I don't understand most of this discussion (Yaoi? BxB?), but I presume this is a Japanese game as their names quite often seem like random English words thrown together. Or does that title make perfect sense after you've played the game? I suspect it is a translation error from Japanese.

And that is imho a REAL daybreaker for me.. I could live with the gay content (which does not interrest me), IF the art style would be on the level of the other, "straight", visual novels sold here. Than I would buy it for the art alone, not the content.

But here the art is really quite boring / undetailled / cheap, so there is no interrest here. And I WOULD like to support visual novels more.

So GOG published a title for girls / gay interrest (no problem there, but not much customers here at GOG I think...), which has "problems" with it's art style, too. Risky move, if you wanna sell copies here...

The game is for the Yaoi market, Boys meet / love / **** boys. A game for the market of girls or gay interrest.

Quite big market, specially on the MANGA side of comics, but fewer in games (more on the side of fanmade there), so this game is quite niche in a niche market, so GOG is publishing something they will NOT sell a lot of units of.

@GOG: PLEASE bring other, REJECTED NICHE STUFF here, PLEASE? The DEGICA shooters?
