Orli Anticia (Can be renamed)

Originally working as a detective at the Clark's Detective Agency in the city, she temporarily moved to Usodar town due to a sudden and mysterious commission. She has a cheerful and kind personality, with strong powers of observation and intuition.

She has a difficult childhood shadow that cannot be erased.

Dane Godioby

CV: Nick Chang

A resident of Usodar Town. He is the new landlord of MC and runs a pet café downstairs from her office. Dane is a gentle big brother next door, and makes world-class delicious coffee. He takes great care of MC and is always the first to come to her aid whenever she's in danger. It seems that he knows everything about MC, even to the point of being a little obsessive.

Luke Errahwin

CV: John Patneaude

A spy investigator who came from out of town a few months ago.

Exuding an air of idleness and nonchalance. He quickly won over the hearts of the locals with his charming demeanor and warm personality. Little did they know, he had a hidden agenda. It seems that a certain trait of MC has caught his attention, and he keeps watching her like a hawk.

No prey can ever escape from him.

Enox HarvardAff

CV: Corey Wilder

A resident of Usodar town. He claims to be a chemist, but his identity and occupation are mysterious.

For some reason, he had almost no contact with anyone until he met the Mc, who had just arrived in town. The Mc has turned his life upside down. He has a love-and-hate relationship feeling on Mc.

Sid Whiteknight

CV: Logan Fletcher

MC’s childhood friend. He is another detective at the Clark’s Detective Agency who is absent 80% of the time as a phantom employee but always quickly completes assignments. Sid is an excellent detective, although his background is a mystery.

Despite often ignoring MC, he actually cares about her a lot.

G#

CV: Harold Ingram

He is the lead vocalist of the famous indie heavy metal band SOUL, with a lively and energetic personality. He often sticks to MC and flirts with her, craving her attention. Although he appears to have a good relationship with Dane, the two seem to have some resentment towards each other in private.


Clark Marbury

CV: Brandon P Jenkins

The owner of Clark's Detective Agency and MC's boss. He used to be a police officer. After the MC’s parents were murdered when she was a child, he became her guardian.

He has known Dane for a long time.

On the surface, he seems unreliable, but in reality, he is very serious and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

He has always treated MC like his younger sister.

我虽然更新了demo到3.0版本,但是并没有看到dane的1-2章,是我的问题吗?

好的,我解决这个问题了,不是在原来的版本上更新,而是卸载后重新安装。

Hello! I have yet to play the game but it looks nice! however I've seen some typos in the main page(also some recomendations) , so I hope I don't come out as rude :p


So first I would recommend you to change things like "You are a detective who has just moved to a new town. You are involved in a serial killer case" to "You are a detective who has just moved to a new town and are involved in a serial killer case" do you get what I mean?  Like don't separate every sentence and just try to stick them together


Also I've seen a small typo in th MC introduction, like "She have" instead of "She has". Besides, I would recommend changing some words since in some sentences the choose of words is a bit poor

And something that also may bugs the eye is writing on the same sentence or paragraph both "He is" and "He's", maybe stick to one because it looks a bit off


The rest seems good! The main issue would be the sentences thing but overall it looks nice, so keep going! ^^

(I wanted to write this on the discord server but the link seems to be down)

Was this game updated?😱

i can't stop smiling

oh my god?? This is amazing. I love Dane so much 😭

This game is so good! I love that it's fully voiced (their voices are so attractive lol) and god I need Dane badly >.< 

Also when I look at CGs and see MC all I can say is DAMN no wonder they are crazy about her lmao

everytime i see luke, i think of dazai osamu from bsd i need to STOP

(+1)

I loved the game! the art was amazing  and I loved dane he is my fav <3 can't wait to play the full ver. the story is very promising! thank you for the game <3

(+1)

So excited for the full game to come out!

This game mad me realise how much I love the mean characters *cough cough* Enox...  ANYWAY.  So bloody excite to view the full game, I made this comment at the point where the full game is required for one of the option.

(+1)(-9)

the game is nice but when creators insert their own main character it leaves out allot of people aswell as ruining the immersion; i also have to mention the cartoonish proportions of the fl, is this just a style choice ?

(+1)

I cant wait till the full game is released! I have enjoyed the demos very much. Look forward to seeing the story unfold

(+1)

This game is amazing!

This is the best game I have seen.

I can't wait for the whole game to be out.

The visuals, the audio, the story.... divine

So i havent even come close to beating the demo (at the scene after the alleyway and i called Clark) and i can tell im going to be here for the long run😝 Love the Mcs design and always love when these style games can let you choose name (self insert for my hubbys) the love interests are all hot too so i know when i get to the finish of the demo im going to cry😭😂I will most likely do a review once I have beaten everything in the demo but as of now i love it😝 And yes I'm playing the NSFW route because im a women of culture😌😋

(1 edit)

I love the new demo I can't wait for the full release!

Also well doing Luke's alley scene "He this said while wiping my tears away with his hand" Should be "He said this while wiping my tears away with his hand".

作者大大你的游戏真的很好,让我多了一个活下去的小目标,游戏不论是画风剧情配音还有界面设计都是非常棒的,如果没有意外我应该能打败那该死的抑郁,活到25年,玩你的游戏。我会继续坚持的!(*^▽^)/★*☆

祝你拥有开心快乐的每一天

Hi! The full version will be out around Q2 of 2025!

( I also keep releasing beta test on Patreon!)

Hi, I personally really like the game and the style of art, but my problem is not being able to customize the MC. I know there is probably a butt load of problems and work that has to go into that, but ima darker skinned person and it would make me and probably a lot of others more in love with the game. Even if we can only change simple things like skin color. ( No hate on the game).

(-1)

Agree!

(+1)

Thank you!!! I hope to do that too, but it is too much workload for a solo dev T_T. If I do so, I need to make many variation for the CGs too (Since there are many) . I am Really sorry

(+1)(-1)

I LOVE THIS GAME SOOOO MUCH!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- the music is so good! Props to the people to did the music HAHASHHSAHSHAHA I love this game so much :P But I really want the option to change how the MC looks- Ik its kinda petty but I reeeally want the option to customise MC. I know coding is hard but I just wanted to say my opinion TvT

(+1)

Thank you!!! I hope to do that too but it is too much workload for a solo dev T_T Really sorry
