Deep Sea Valentine
the art and characters are cute and the story is simple but consistently well-written, though the gameplay can be a bit buggy and walking around can be tedious at times. still, it’s a cute game and i’d say it’s worth playing. some characters suffered from having less screen time, making their endings seem abrupt, and i think triche’s ending overall could be set up better. otherwise, liked it a lot.

A very charming dating sim, featuring a cast of some very fine fishy femmes!
I think if Deep Sea Valentine looks like the kind of game you would be interested in, it’s not going to disappoint you.
It’s a cute and funny game with great writing and a nice soundtrack, what more can you ask for?
P.S. Moka is my favorite :)

Aquadine
Overview
Aquadine is a story about friendship, family, finding hope in the hard times, and most of all, the secrets we keep and the manifold chaos they sometimes bring on us if we don’t reveal them to the right people, or if we don’t have said people in our lives. The store page description tells you that at least the main character of the story is hiding a big secret, but beware! He’s far from being the only person in this town with secrets! This VN is mostly billed as a comedy, but it really brings a roller coaster of emotions. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will probably gasp at multiple points. Aquadine is also a kinetic novel of sorts, which honestly is usually a turn-off for me because it usually means that you, the player, have no control over the direction and outcome of the story, and you are placing yourself solely in the hands of the writers and hanging on for the ride. This is probably also the reason why the game has no achievements, and why it has been so unjustly overlooked. But let me say a few things about why I think that was a good move for this game, and why I think that makes it better than the average VN. First, you won’t have to spend a long time with this game re-doing old parts of the story trying new decisions to try to get different endings. You just read through all the routes and you’re done. Second, you just read that right. Even though it’s a kinetic novel, there are still multiple routes! Once you finish the opening common route of the story, you will reach a character select screen that presents you with 4 routes, each of which focuses on the given character and imagines how things might go if Robin were to enter into a closer relationship with that character. Only one of these routes is canon (you’ll see), but they all serve to give you a lot of background info on those characters, and are where most of the world-building happens. And when you finish all 4, a new option will appear on the main menu, which is the final route to the true ending. Third, the ability to focus on telling the story the way they wanted to in each route, while not having to allow for different combinations of decisions, allowed this developer to create a story that was more consistently high quality than any of the indie VNs I have played before. So you won’t have to worry about parts of the story being given less attention or not being paced well. During my time with Aquadine, I went from seeing it’s potential but being skeptical, to seeing it come closer to my expectations, to having every expectation far surpassed in every way, to even being left speechless by the quality of parts of the story. I know you won’t be disappointed either.
! Actually, there is one thing I was disappointed by, and it’s the fact that I have some unanswered questions after the true ending. Maybe they’re leaving the door open for a sequel? I can only hope so.

After finishing Aquadine I can say with the utmost sincerity: It’s not getting the award for Sound Design.
A long gameplay later I managed to finish the game, I had fun for about half the time while the rest felt either disappointing or not that much engaging. Unfortunately more things in this game drag it down than elevate. Sound side of this is pretty poor, voiced lines get irritating pretty fast (I wish Grandpa would just shut up) while background sound at times is just too loud (Elisabeth bike ride hurt my ears). Music was average but I played without any sound with my own music in the background, thanks to the game’s overall sound design that did not encourage listening to it. In the graphics department the game looks quite beautiful but I do wish it offered more “places to visit” because at times it really undermines the story (with Cameron route for example). I would take the voice budget and put it into more graphics and add more characters (Cameron route could use a few more visible characters). At different times we will see full-screen static images, those are well done.

Neko Beach is a peaceful beach-based puzzle game presenting cute moving Neko girls in different actions. We have a total of 12 short puzzles to solve and each puzzle offers 3 different achievements.
The characters are on all the puzzles in swimsuits, often with a swimming ring, sunglasses, or a beach umbrella.
The art style is cute, the movements added on them may be good and do accent the
artworks a good bit but for my taste rather extreme for some parts, especially body-based.
We are accompanied by a piece of very peaceful piano music, I little too peaceful because I felt like sleeping in while solving the puzzles but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

The princess/ main character in this story is a detetmined, quirky and witty one, that at times makes for fun interactions with the rest of the charas. A cute, colorful, fun and charming little game that makes the food lover in me at least hungry. Nice if you are looking for something not too long and light hearted.
