Oh this one was SUPER fun. I really enjoyed the concept and getting to know all of the clients! They're all varied and unique with their own quirks and issues. I liked the fact that I could find something that I liked and disliked about all of them, which really made them feel well-rounded and, well, human! There's also just so much variety in the dialogue and I think the voice actors were a great choice and killed it with their roles from what I've seen.

My personal favorite client so far is Zaid because while he is definitely rough around the edges and mildly prone to running over my consultant on the way to his seat, I personally see Zaid as just a big clumsy puppy that so desperately wants to be loved (๑˃́ꇴ˂̀๑) And I love that for him. I want this guy to find that and be happy like nothing else. I am probably a piddling fraction of his overall mass, but I want to pick him up like he's a small dog and hug him and tell him it's gonna be alright and that sure yeah I think he could stand to slow down a tad but I know he's doing his best and just auuugh (,,> ω<,,)

(That said, Atlas definitely has my heart a little bit. I love the banter between him and the MC aaaaaaaaaaaaaa <3)

Additionally, I love that MDA doesn't shy away from heavier topics and attempts to handle them with care and advocates for open communication. I'll try to keep it spoiler-free, but I definitely had a few moments of, "YES! PLEASE TALK ABOUT IT! LIKE HUMAN BEINGS DO!" and "AND IF THEY'RE MEAN OR JUDGMENTAL TO YOU ABOUT IT, I WILL PERSONALLY BEHEAD THEM okay well that's an exaggeration but I will certainly have a professional but stern word with them and they will not come out unscathed (╬ ಠωಠ)و"

There is one little thing that bothered me a bit, and please correct me if I'm wrong about this! (⁎˃ᆺ˂) I often found myself needing to load previous saves to review information on clients and prospective dates, and started wishing there was a way to access and review client/date profiles or information. Again, if there is a way to do that and I am just looking in the wrong places, please disregard this bit! I understand that what is currently out is a demo and submissions for game jams, so I also understand that certain features may not be implemented yet; it was just something I found myself doing often while considering matches. For example, I was once considering a client's specification regarding ages, but then I couldn't remember how old the client was and had to look around for that information. So I thought it'd be worth bringing it up (x ω x;; )

Anyways! I'm very excited for what y'all have in store for the future and will keep tabs on this project (((o(*゚▽゚*)o))) You've all worked very hard and should be proud of what you've achieved!

Ahhh, thank you for such a long and lovely comment!! I'm so glad you enjoyed Zaid and Atlas and that the characters felt human. This was super important to me to convey and it's a relief to know that it's coming across well.

It's tricky at times to write good dating advice, but good communication never seems to fail. :)

You are correct the demo is lacking this feature - and that the game really needs it!! I would love to add in a little notebook at part of the GUI that you can open and review whenever you want that updates to include notes on each meeting you have with your clients as well as some other handy reminders. Definitely in a full version, but hopefully in an update.

You're seriously the best for checking the game out and leaving your review. Thanks for all the kind words <3
