isso é tão fofo :3
it didnt load the character for me, it was just a black screen instead of the dad-figure :(
Little heartwarming games like this are so calming and good for the soul. Thanks for making my day a little brighter!
also very clever within the limitations of the game jam :)
This was such a moving, beautifully-subtle story that made me want to cry and warmed my heart at the same time. It was short and sweet while evoking such powerful emotions. Truly a work of art!
Aww, thank you for your kind words! Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I thought I was a child at first and then realized I was a cat 😭
I thought i was going to be the tuna when i clicked on the game
Awwwwww so cute!!!!
Aaw thank you!
I hope I get reincarnated as a cat in my next life... if only for a handsome man to feed me yummy tuna rice <3
We all wish... ;-; Thank you for playing!
Cute! I appreciated the dialogue.
Aww thank you for playing!
This was such a sweet and adorable story.
Hahah nice one. Thank you for playing!
This is an amazing little story!
Thank you for playing!
Haha I enjoyed the video! Thank you for playing!!

Thank you very much! <3
this was really sweet. didn't expect to get emotional over tuna rice but here we are
Aww, thank you! I hope you get a bowl of warm tuna rice too. <3
question: can i eat him
he DOES look like a snack
"Please don't..."
Nom.
for some reason I thought this would be a cooking style game but this is better
Aw, thank you very much for playing!
never would have thought the dev would have replied to me
Okay I knew it I played this game two years ago, I was just forgetful and forgot about it. I remember playing your other works as well!
weirdly enough nothing new has came out :(
I just saw it on New & Popular Web Game page!
Wow I really didn't know why it came to New and Popular again after a few years... Thank you very much for playing my works! ^^
I really love them! They were really fun and was healing... I'm just wondering why there isn't any new works anymore ;(
Aww. I don't know how to continue this VN, though. I think it's good as is. But I'm working on new things behind the scenes... One day I hope to finish them and put them here! :D
I totaly jus din't ply te gam ad lisened t th rai fr 10 ours
10/10 hous spnt listein to ran nd trafic
gd gme tho, i lov t vry cute
Aw, that sounds very peaceful! Thank you. :D
Oh, and oneow thing.
Could I, perhaps, beow the kind Hoewman's roommetow? I would surely paow the rent. In someow totally noew suspicious and legal way, of courseow!
Fei: *hissing at you*
Ehh, don't beow soew over-protective... Weow could totally liveow togetherrrrer
Noew, noew, this neow right.
Why doew you not put mayoew in your tunei rice? Weow need toew haveow serious talk about this.
"Are you joking? Mayo is an abomination to the clean, simple flavour of tuna rice".
He wouldn't accept the argument. :p
(That actually makes sense, if you're going on the more clean & smooth side of tuna rice. Sometimes we all need something plain... Hm, I understand ya now, kind human!)
buoew, someoews I'd likeow someow moreow flavours... meow meow... (Sad cat noises)
Haha... Try to convince him to get some kewpie mayo next time...
Hehe thank you!! Meow :3
Amei o jogo , porém ele poderia ser mais longo pra ver se conseguiriamos achar a mãe do animalzinho que ele pegou na rua.
Wow obrigada!! :D O O2A2 jam este VN participou tem 1,000 palavra-limite, então eu não consegui escrever mais historias neste VN. :') Mas, acredito se um dia tenho mais historias com ele!
de nada e obrigada
I really love it! So cute! And can I marry the hooman???
Aaw, thank you so much!! He's going to be super flustered to hear the proposal hahaha >,<
It's a pretty silly game, however I give it 3 stars out of 5. Nice art and dialogue. A moving and short story. I would have liked it to have had endings.
Thank you for playing!
Aah because of the 1,000 word limit that the O2A2 jam that this Visual Novel participated in has, the story was purposely written to be very short on purpose ^^;;
I really admired the art style and the point of view being from a cat! (I thought we played as a literal fish lol 😭)
I honestly really wanna see more games from you in the future :3
I thought it was a dog, so at least there's no cannibalism in my perspective
That's really interesting! You're the second person who thought it was a dog hahaha :D
Playing as a fish sound really cute tho haha... Thank you for playing! 💛🐟
just realized you're a cat not an abandoned child who was taken by a stranger
Real,i thought that too lol
Well, a seemingly kind and anime stranger. Nothing would ever go wrong, would it?
It's refreshing to have a visual novel with a point of view of an animal. I really liked the story it's really cute and comforting. 10/10 I highly recommend to play it. (I kind of got confused at first and though we were like a merfolk but being a cat was a really good surprise)
Aaa thank you very much for your kind words! 💛🐟 And haha that's an interesting perspective, thanks for sharing it with me. :D
I really liked this game! Having the point of view of a cat was a definite change in pace! This is really nicely made, and I really like the art! 10/10!!!
Yes!! I think it's cute to experience unique point of views, I'm glad that you like it!! Thank you very much! 💛🐟
I thought it was cool how as the pet, you talked. I liked how even though the boy didn't understand what the pet was saying, they still got there in the end! I loved the background and UI, the colour palette was very pleasing and I liked how neat it looked. Also the tuna icons are just too cute!
Yes, yes so true!! Their 'one-way' dialogue was really fun to write. This was such a fun project to make, I'm glad to hear that you liked it! Thank you very much! 💛🐟
This was super cute! Much love for it!
Aaa thank you for playing! I enjoyed your playthrough! 💛🐟 Meow!
At first I thought that we were a tuna fish with legs ._.
Wait, that actually sounds quite adorable ;w; ahaha 💛🐟
This visual novel is as warm and fluffy as tuna rice! The colour scheme looks very aestetic and the camera work is impressive. I also liked the fish bone cursor and cute tuna image in the menus.
Aww thank you for playing! 💛🐟 The little fish bone and cute tuna button were very fun to do, I'm glad you liked them! ^^
This game is so sweet and cute- Now I wanna know what they put in that tuna rice so that i can eat it:P Also someone hurt my human and I don't think I can stand that>:((
Hehe! Don't worry, human is fine and happy! Thank you for playing! 💛🐟
this game is so nice, it makes me feel like i should try tuna rice.
Thank you for playing! 💛🐟 I hope you get to try it!
wow that was more emotional than id ever expected great game
Thank you for playing! 💛🐟
