A downloadable game

Play as Bailey (gender up to interpretation),  a bartender on the surface, but actually is an informant in disguise.

Help two distinct client that regularly visits not only for information of their target, but also to vent their work and life problems.

Is it better to live a risky extraordinary life or have a comfortable life as an ordinary people?

This is my first try at creating visual novel as well as my entry for April Visual Novel Jam 2023 , I learn a lot about Ren'Py and workflow while creating this. Definitely will make more visual novel again after this for more training and experience.

Aaaa, love the character interactions! and the story plot idea too! Or... what is the words... I mean, the cases? the events? I guess it's just fun figuring out who is what and involved in what events in what kind of way... And to think that the story is just unfolding in one setting!

Sure, there are still things that could be improved; like for example, there are still some dialogues shown with inappropriate character name, and I notice one instance where the sprite is taken out late from the screen. I imagine if there had been more time and hands on deck, the GUI could use some customization, and the script could use help from an editor or co-writer to smooth out the english. Who knows, even more details to the story elements (like the names of people and instances involved at the outskirt of the story).

But anyway--for a game made solo in a month and half, you did a good job! uwu)b

Thank you so much for the feedback, I'm glad it's likeable. I'm not too sure with my writing skill as this is my first time making visual novel. I hope I can improve and make more visual novel

Yish, go for it! I'd be open for writing discussion and some editing as well if you need help in the future :3
