I might actually track you down and beat the heck out of you for this... OK, I'm just joking. But it hurts, man. FU though, lol. (Great game, entertaining, well written, great characters, but still... FU. The pain was real!)
I'm at a loss of words... So far this has been truly wonderful.. I cannot wait for the nest installment of this. Thank you Drifty for this story. It is truly something amazing.
So I've got 4 different plays going at the same time...one for Cece, Linda, Lexi and then the fun couple. My favorite so far emotionally is Cece. I just love her whole story. Not the biggest fan of Steph. The renders are awesome all around. Just finished chapter 4 with Cece and Robin/Kira. My favorite, unexpectancy is with Lexi...you will know exactly what I am talking about when it happens. I really can't even begin to explain how great the story writing has been for every character. Really excited to start Ch.5, but I have to complete Linda and Lexi Ch.4 first.
Were you not disappointed, no interactive three ways with Lexi and Holly and Kia and Robin? And a very poor ending for Linda, too, considering the story. That is all that has spoiled it a little for me. I think the dev knew most would go for Lexi or Cece in their first play though, so put all the effort into those two, not so much anyone else!
5 bucks to you for a great storyline. I can totally relate. It's more of a Love Novel than Hardcore Porn Novel and that's exactly what I'm looking for. Looking forward to the whole story.
Amazing game, engaging characters that just draw you in and make you really care about them. The choices feel impactful because of how engaging the characters are. The story so far is great if you don't mind a bit of a tear jerker but absolutely 100% worth playing and supporting.
Great game so far! I will say I noticed about a dozen typos in my playthrough and I'm curious why Cece is the only white girl that doesn't have a super dark tan? Even her siblings are dark. Maybe just the program... I am very sorry to hear about your daughter but I must ask why would you choose the medium of an erotic game to tell this story? Hopefully she is not too based on her, that would make the sex scenes kind of awkward. Lastly could we at some point get an option to disable/skip the girl on girl stuff? It feels a little forced and awkward. But still great game! Looking forward to Ceces recovery. Going to do a Lexi play through next
My comment was not, "OMG DELETE THE BLACK CHICK" It was Why is Cece the only light skinned person besides possibly Robin. But Cece's 2 younger siblings unless they are adopted look nothing like her. It was a question of was it a choice or is it the program that is making everyone appear like they live in tanning beds. (Looking at you Lexi, she has that Trump orange look going)
wow. when I bought leap of faith I was not expecting this, It is very well done in my opinion. It is a very difficult subject to broach, everyone goes through different emotions when faced with similar feelings to CECE, I know I did going back many years ago, thankfully I came through the other side, occasionally I get small moments even now. Playing this was both rewarding and upsetting. after ch5, I thought she's a bit more relaxed but as can be the case it's not that simple. I have got to say all the other main characters were just as well written, each with their own insecurities. So thankyou to the developers for making such a powerful game, I look forward to seeing how CECE'S friends cope, and remembering what a unique character she was, and will be following dev's progress. Also I bought the full game on itch, had trouble loading ch5-6. so went to downloaded full game from patreon all saves were there.
You know, I'm very very impressed for the accuracy of how Cece is feeling. It's so on point in a lot of things and it actually brought back some memories. Now, there's one thing I want to say, not to the creator of this marvelous story but to some people I've seen commenting about what "should" happen next. First hi, I am a survivor of not one, not two but three attempts of suicide (I'm completely good now, that was seven years ago), pleasure to meet you! I've seen someone comment that after that scene certain character is not... let's say "dateable" (did I say that right?) and that they need to get help. I agree 100% on the help side of the comment, absolutely, but the "dateable" side and the nature of the "get help"... not so much. I'll explain:
Being like that is a torture 24/7 in our homes, in our "normal" lives, when we guilt ourselves for not being able to do the normal stuff, the most trivial stuff, other people do without even thinking that that thing could be hell to someone. Now imagine how that emotion would be if we were locked up in a hospital.
I understand where this is coming from, people want to help and we appreciate that, but for me and the bunch of people I got in touch with in that countless therapy group sessions the answer is clear: it would literally mean the death for us, because then we'd have a solid proof that we are that useless and that we need to get fixed (spoiler alert: you don't because you are not broken. It's just a pattern of thoughts, a habit that can be changed)
Therapy? Psychologists? A shit ton of mind work to do? For sure 100% Hospital? A few people might need it but I've never meet anyone that says that would be their case.
About the dateable thing, it's funny because that was the position my girlfriend and I were, when some little thing upsetted me back then and she didn't sleep those nights because she was afraid I'd make something crazy. She went straight to my therapist one day and asked him if it was wise or even healthy for me to be in a romantic relationship. He sat us beside each other and asked us if we wanted to be in a romantic relationship, I said yes but my girlfriend hesitated. She insisted in ask him if it was healthy for me, just for him to repeat his question. I was about to burst in tears and then she said that yes, she wanted to be with me (the relief!). He then asked us if we were willing to put in the work and compromise because it wasn't going to be easy. Again, we said yes. Then my therapist smiled and said "then I don't see any problem!" It required a lot of daily work, discussions and a few tears along the way, but two years ago we got married so I think we did pretty well.
Of course, everyone has their own opinion about this kind of situation and everyone is different, but keep in mind this little story of mine.
Lastly, if you are one of those people that are in a situation like I was let me tell you something:
You are not alone, I love every single one of you and I believe in you. Everyone is battling against their own demons, yours might be louder but they will fall too. Please hang in there, you can't even imagine how much beauty and happiness the future holds for you
I like the fact you've taken the time to create a table based of the ratings people would vote on. I think interesting and realistic plot should be higher though, as its realistic to the creator, and its realistic to a lot of unfortunate people that have been through similar situations, respect nonetheless though.
Hi, this is of course a very subjective evaluation, any other person can feel quite different about it. I agree that the plot is very realistic, it's the 'interesting' part that lose the points, but you're right that maybe I did not appreciated it enough, it's certainly not boring, I didn't skip any text even once.
Hey i noticed you haven't played Acting Lessons yet ( Same creator of Being a DIK), also Savior, City of Broken Dreamers. My ranking for them would be the following:
Thanks for the hints. Actually savior is on my black list https://vnrank.blogspot.com/p/poor.html and I don't remember why, probably because of sandbox, incest or simple I found the plot silly. But maybe I will give it another chance if you rate it so high.
Regarding Acting Lessons & City of Unbroken Dreamers: I played them quite long time ago and forgot to evaluate them but I didn't like them.
'Acting lessons' have very limited choices, you are stuck with one girl and may only decide whether to cheat on her or not. And the last chapter doesn't have any decision at all.
'City of Unbroken Dreamers' I stopped playing more less when the MC found the girl. I was simply bored with all the Sci-fi staff, probably it's not for me.
Regarding Acting Lessons, I enjoyed it a lot because of the well crafted characters and story especially the plot twist and I understand your frustration of only being only able to save one of the main girls. The thing is you can choose other girls too (aside from either Melissa or Megan) like Rena, Leah, Angela, Hedwig, and Ana. The only sad part is one of them would die (one of the main girls). Overall, I'd say give it another go. Its story is superb. Characters are solid especially Liam (your best friend). Very emotional story. Dr. PinkCake sure knows how to create excellent visual novels. I still rate it 9/10 after playing hundreds of visual novels.
It all depends what are you looking for in the VN. For me the most important is to make decisions and have an impact on what's happening, to feel like you live another life . In 'Acting lessons' I had a feeling that my actions don't count at all.
I am having trouble updating the base file with the new material on mac. I looked at the contents of the .zip file and replaced the folder with the expansion. That just clones the expansion (lost my progress). Thoughts?
This chapter just broke me. I lost 2 close family members to this same situation. It is not easy nor does it get any easier. I am sorry for your loss and I know the pain you feel. You are a great story teller.
I knw this game is very good and I appreciate how rich the story is, but u can't just kill her in the next chapter bro, idk if that happens I won't be able to play the game man, it will too overwhelming I hope you don't do that
fuck man chapter 6 ending hit me so fucking hard! im a 22 year old lad who never shows emotions but shit :'( that hit so hard such unbelievable work the story is so good even if at times its painful. much love <3
How can you write such an incredible story? Respect dude. I played Chapter 6 on the release day and Im still hoping that the end scene was just a nightmare of James... (yeah who would stop hoping) Keep goin on Drifty!
This is the best game, like... of all. The story is great, characters are all awesome, this is the first lewd game where I've genuinely wanted to help set my 'best friend' character up. The music video portions are amazingly done, the characters seem real and relatable and not just 'harem bingo'. Great stuff.
Truly epic drifty that is true gaming right there and sorry for your loss and to all the haters you obviously dont see a great game when it's staring at you and think how hard it was for drifty to make them scenes given what happened in rl so show some respect and keep up the great work respect drifty
Man...I honestly don´t know what to say! This game was just beautiful. Your story telling was just pure art and all the characters were just perfect. Cece´s character is so lovely, but most times people with depression are the most caring ones for their friends. This game was something different. It was an emotional roller coaster for me. You triggered so many emotions in me during my playthrough and had me crying in the end, because I was so sucked in by the story. Also the song Blue from Faith Richards might be my new favorite song I just can´t stop listening to it. Keep up the good work.
I love your work. It really sucked me in. Amazing story telling and programing. But this was to heavy. Even with the disclamer people will watch it. Anyone who has lost a loved one to this could get massively wrecked by this.... to the point of even doing what you depicted in that final scene. For me I was gonna save her story for my final play through when you finished the game. The true heros journey. But that's screwed up now. Also for anyone that says it's real man I call bs cause I know for a personal fact you can always be pulled back from the brink if someone makes it there in time. Specially if it's a loved one. But hey it's your IP. I am just not sure I can support your work anymore.
its not in the creators hands if the viewer decides to still view the distressing scenes even when told NOT TO, if it reflects a personal matter. Also yeah people can be saved if the right person comes at the right time, but everyone's different. Some people just can't be saved (as heart-breaking as it is). Nonetheless I respect your decision and I somewhat agree, especially if your "walkthrough" is for YouTube where they have a large young audience.
Everything seemed going so fine. And then it's turned upside down. I loved Cece from the start and really care about her. A testament to your skill at writing.
It's the second time a VN was able to give me such a numb feeling (other time was the bad ending in Summer Scent), and the horror when connecting the dots with MC beforehand and realizing what she is planning to do. Couldn't sleep for a while, as it reminded me of the brother of my best man.
After marrying, we had a party with the family and two days later with our friends. Due to a spur of a moment, I asked my best man on the mornig of the party to invite his brother to the party. He came with him and I was wondering during the party, why his brother seemed a little strange and a little bit of clingy to me.
The next day my friend told me, that this invitation had probably saved his brother who was just a step before doing it when he called him. I still think about it even 23 years later he is still alive and passed those dark times).
Thank god this was the only time people I know personally brushed with suicide and that small things (even unknowingly) could have a big impact (positivly in this case). I feel sorry for everyone who had to experience this personally and wish them all the best.
When sitting down beside Cece (slightly before this) to comfort her, bring up your phone and send a message to her.
Afterwards, go through your Nuke app after the screens where Robin is dancing, right before Cece enters. Find the picture of Kira and search it for clues.
When I text with CeCe, it ends with a hug, fade to black and then my date with Lexi pops up; Robin's dance sequence does not play. Where am I going wrong?
you get it the pin from Kira's picture but you do it after Robin tells you she's going to go try her toy out. It will say I need to find her pin number. You pull up nuke and go to kira's picture. it's basically the numbers on robin's sn.
When the screen shows robin dancing after showing you the toy, and right before cece pops into view it says something on screen along the lines of "I wonder what her code is" (heavily paraphrased), go to Nuke and look for one of the pictures of Kira (i found on the one of her in the dress walking to your house) and theres the option to look at robins user name.
I REALLY HATE YOU! BURN IN HELL. I so often have to deal with those same emotions and this ending has so boosted them again. I knew how it would end but hoped I was wrong. But no!
First let me say I'm sorry for my beginning outburst. I'm a combat vet who saw way too many friends die and brought all that home with me. I still can't let that go even seeing psychiatrists all these years. I got into Leap of Faith cause it was showing me a happier side of side even though it wasn't real. But then I found myself so attached to CeCe cause her life, dark as it was, matched mine. Many times I wished I could have done want she final did. But her life seemed to be on a good track finally and seeing her just give up like that, I just totally broke down in disbelief. Why! Was all I could say. And if she could finally do it to get away from her demons then why not me. I really feel my struggles each and every day cause I see myself and it's hell! I'm trying hard not to think, but easier said than done. Strange that I would have a date coming up soon to see my psych, but I don't know what to say to her. You have written the most incredible story I have ever read but in a way I'm sorry I read it. My brain just was not ready for that mirror to look into. Again sorry and keep writing,
First of all, thank you very much for coming back with a followup comment. I absolutely applaud you. I can fully understand reactions to this chapter, although 99.9% of them are good. Leap of Faith is very much about feelings, or rather to feel. I do know that for some feelings are hard (if you read the text at the end), but I will do my utmost to make it up to you in the following chapter, and I hope that you will find peace with your demons and can live alongside them.
Secondly, did you notice the heartbeat at the very end of this chapter?
i shouldnt ignored the warning at the end. seriously guys, If you ever had a suicidal thoughts in your life you must skip chapter 6 end scene, its not a joke !
I agree with you to a certain extent. I've been in those dark places many times, so suicide is something close and personal to me, not something distant or unfathomable. The ending of chapter 6 left me in emotional turmoil and pain. At the same time, it's good to actually feel something, even if it's sadness and pain and not something positive, like joy or happiness.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you're in a bad place right now, then skip the end of chapter 6. I'm sure it could be a trigger for some. But if you've struggled with these kind of thoughts before, but are in a happier place right now, I don't think the ending would push you over the edge. Still, if you're not sure, then skip it.
So i have Leap of Faith 5.1c , i downloaded the 6.1 and it tells me its a patch, what do i exactly do to play Chapter 6? I don't know how to really play otherwise, aka I'm clueless , any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
I've just tried launching the game and it comes back with error and when I wanna load my save file or press ignore it takes me back to chapter 1, I'm really annoyed because I really don't wanna go through the entire story again. It took me so long to get every girls happy ending up til chapter 6. what do I do?
the ending to chapter 6 was absolutely phenomenal man, really sensitive and touching end. can't wait for ch7, love the storyline, artwork and overall progression of this novel. 11/10
its symbolising the fact that cece was "dying" or "dead" because it flatlined, but if you watch til the very end, there's an extra beat. probably meaning shes not fully under. We'll have to wait and see in chapter 7 though.

I might actually track you down and beat the heck out of you for this... OK, I'm just joking. But it hurts, man. FU though, lol. (Great game, entertaining, well written, great characters, but still... FU. The pain was real!)
I'm at a loss of words... So far this has been truly wonderful.. I cannot wait for the nest installment of this. Thank you Drifty for this story. It is truly something amazing.
Might just be the most touching and beautiful story line. The revelation at the end ... : ( was unexpected. I am so sorry for the loss.
So I've got 4 different plays going at the same time...one for Cece, Linda, Lexi and then the fun couple. My favorite so far emotionally is Cece. I just love her whole story. Not the biggest fan of Steph. The renders are awesome all around. Just finished chapter 4 with Cece and Robin/Kira.

Really excited to start Ch.5, but I have to complete Linda and Lexi Ch.4 first.
I did the same. A different play for each.
Were you not disappointed, no interactive three ways with Lexi and Holly and Kia and Robin? And a very poor ending for Linda, too, considering the story. That is all that has spoiled it a little for me. I think the dev knew most would go for Lexi or Cece in their first play though, so put all the effort into those two, not so much anyone else!
I didn't know what to expect for Chapter 6. But oh my God.
Thank you for this story, Drifty. Just... thank you.
5 bucks to you for a great storyline. I can totally relate. It's more of a Love Novel than Hardcore Porn Novel and that's exactly what I'm looking for. Looking forward to the whole story.
Thanks Mate
You fucking shakespeares! Loved the plot so far. You guys are doing it well.
Amazing game, engaging characters that just draw you in and make you really care about them. The choices feel impactful because of how engaging the characters are. The story so far is great if you don't mind a bit of a tear jerker but absolutely 100% worth playing and supporting.
Great game so far! I will say I noticed about a dozen typos in my playthrough and I'm curious why Cece is the only white girl that doesn't have a super dark tan? Even her siblings are dark. Maybe just the program... I am very sorry to hear about your daughter but I must ask why would you choose the medium of an erotic game to tell this story? Hopefully she is not too based on her, that would make the sex scenes kind of awkward. Lastly could we at some point get an option to disable/skip the girl on girl stuff?

wow how to spot a racist
My comment was not, "OMG DELETE THE BLACK CHICK" It was Why is Cece the only light skinned person besides possibly Robin. But Cece's 2 younger siblings unless they are adopted look nothing like her. It was a question of was it a choice or is it the program that is making everyone appear like they live in tanning beds. (Looking at you Lexi, she has that Trump orange look going)
some people are just fair skinned or pale skin or porcelain skin and though don't tan, they burn.
wow, amazing story. thank you Drifty.
love it, to quote the ending (it's just a game). It's not, it's more than that, can't wait
Fuck me, I was not expecting that sucker punch. A beautiful peice that conveys an important story with care and love.
Might stop crying in a bit.
7/10 so far. Hey when is Episode 7 going to cum out
ep 6* - they released the trailer, so soon. also its 'come' my dude
No, i already played chapter 6. I am talking about chapter 7

Hey i noticed you haven't played Acting Lessons yet ( Same creator of Being a DIK), also Savior, City of Broken Dreamers. My ranking for them would be the following:
Acting Lessons 9/10 Best
Savior (unfinished) 8/10 Awesome
City of Unbroken Dreams 7/10 Very good
Thanks for the hints. Actually savior is on my black list https://vnrank.blogspot.com/p/poor.html and I don't remember why, probably because of sandbox, incest or simple I found the plot silly. But maybe I will give it another chance if you rate it so high.

Shadows over Manston sucks too hard. idk what made you overrate it. It has barely choices too
I am having trouble updating the base file with the new material on mac. I looked at the contents of the .zip file and replaced the folder with the expansion. That just clones the expansion (lost my progress). Thoughts?
This chapter just broke me. I lost 2 close family members to this same situation. It is not easy nor does it get any easier. I am sorry for your loss and I know the pain you feel. You are a great story teller.
I knw this game is very good and I appreciate how rich the story is, but u can't just kill her in the next chapter bro, idk if that happens I won't be able to play the game man, it will too overwhelming I hope you don't do that
fuck man chapter 6 ending hit me so fucking hard! im a 22 year old lad who never shows emotions but shit :'( that hit so hard such unbelievable work the story is so good even if at times its painful. much love <3
How can you write such an incredible story? Respect dude. I played Chapter 6 on the release day and Im still hoping that the end scene was just a nightmare of James... (yeah who would stop hoping) Keep goin on Drifty!
This is the best game, like... of all. The story is great, characters are all awesome, this is the first lewd game where I've genuinely wanted to help set my 'best friend' character up. The music video portions are amazingly done, the characters seem real and relatable and not just 'harem bingo'. Great stuff.
Truly epic drifty that is true gaming right there and sorry for your loss and to all the haters you obviously dont see a great game when it's staring at you and think how hard it was for drifty to make them scenes given what happened in rl so show some respect and keep up the great work respect drifty
Holy Shit!, I wasn't expecting that ending at all I was crying when I finished it. Such a beautiful game I can't wait for Chapter 7 :)
I....I am speechless as I type this, the new update is so captivating and its impossible to not be emotionally invested in Cece, even from the start.
The final scenes had me in tears, kinda wish I stopped at the disclaimer as I've been there before.
I can't wait to see how the rest of the game plays out.
Man...I honestly don´t know what to say! This game was just beautiful. Your story telling was just pure art and all the characters were just perfect. Cece´s character is so lovely, but most times people with depression are the most caring ones for their friends. This game was something different. It was an emotional roller coaster for me.

But hey it's your IP. I am just not sure I can support your work anymore.
Relax, it's just a game (plus the sudden pulse from the heartbeat monitor in the ends might hint something, idk)
its not in the creators hands if the viewer decides to still view the distressing scenes even when told NOT TO, if it reflects a personal matter. Also yeah people can be saved if the right person comes at the right time, but everyone's different. Some people just can't be saved (as heart-breaking as it is). Nonetheless I respect your decision and I somewhat agree, especially if your "walkthrough" is for YouTube where they have a large young audience.
What a chapter. Really great writing.
Everything seemed going so fine. And then it's turned upside down. I loved Cece from the start and really care about her. A testament to your skill at writing.
It's the second time a VN was able to give me such a numb feeling (other time was the bad ending in Summer Scent), and the horror when connecting the dots with MC beforehand and realizing what she is planning to do. Couldn't sleep for a while, as it reminded me of the brother of my best man.
After marrying, we had a party with the family and two days later with our friends. Due to a spur of a moment, I asked my best man on the mornig of the party to invite his brother to the party. He came with him and I was wondering during the party, why his brother seemed a little strange and a little bit of clingy to me.
The next day my friend told me, that this invitation had probably saved his brother who was just a step before doing it when he called him. I still think about it even 23 years later he is still alive and passed those dark times).
Thank god this was the only time people I know personally brushed with suicide and that small things (even unknowingly) could have a big impact (positivly in this case). I feel sorry for everyone who had to experience this personally and wish them all the best.
I went and rewinded... It is not just a game, so thank you very much.
Is there a way to get Robin's pin code number to take control of her toy?
What am I missing?
When sitting down beside Cece (slightly before this) to comfort her, bring up your phone and send a message to her.
Afterwards, go through your Nuke app after the screens where Robin is dancing, right before Cece enters. Find the picture of Kira and search it for clues.When I text with CeCe, it ends with a hug, fade to black and then my date with Lexi pops up; Robin's dance sequence does not play. Where am I going wrong?
Hmm. I don't really know. This worked for me. Might be that somewhere previously in the game you indicated that you did not want Robin ?
you get it the pin from Kira's picture but you do it after Robin tells you she's going to go try her toy out. It will say I need to find her pin number. You pull up nuke and go to kira's picture. it's basically the numbers on robin's sn.
When the screen shows robin dancing after showing you the toy, and right before cece pops into view it says something on screen along the lines of "I wonder what her code is" (heavily paraphrased), go to Nuke and look for one of the pictures of Kira (i found on the one of her in the dress walking to your house) and theres the option to look at robins user name.
Thanks, I'll give it a go.
Now I'm heartbroken. But even more: I am sorry for your loss.
Why would you do that to me man? god dammit.
Man, screw you for making me cry. Keep up the good work, eagerly waiting for the next update
I REALLY HATE YOU! BURN IN HELL. I so often have to deal with those same emotions and this ending has so boosted them again. I knew how it would end but hoped I was wrong. But no!
First let me say I'm sorry for my beginning outburst. I'm a combat vet who saw way too many friends die and brought all that home with me. I still can't let that go even seeing psychiatrists all these years. I got into Leap of Faith cause it was showing me a happier side of side even though it wasn't real. But then I found myself so attached to CeCe cause her life, dark as it was, matched mine. Many times I wished I could have done want she final did. But her life seemed to be on a good track finally and seeing her just give up like that, I just totally broke down in disbelief. Why! Was all I could say. And if she could finally do it to get away from her demons then why not me. I really feel my struggles each and every day cause I see myself and it's hell! I'm trying hard not to think, but easier said than done. Strange that I would have a date coming up soon to see my psych, but I don't know what to say to her. You have written the most incredible story I have ever read but in a way I'm sorry I read it. My brain just was not ready for that mirror to look into. Again sorry and keep writing,
First of all, thank you very much for coming back with a followup comment. I absolutely applaud you. I can fully understand reactions to this chapter, although 99.9% of them are good. Leap of Faith is very much about feelings, or rather to feel. I do know that for some feelings are hard (if you read the text at the end), but I will do my utmost to make it up to you in the following chapter, and I hope that you will find peace with your demons and can live alongside them.
Secondly, did you notice the heartbeat at the very end of this chapter?
What an emotional rollercoaster this was. (┰_┰) Thank you, DriftyGames! Thank you!
i shouldnt ignored the warning at the end. seriously guys, If you ever had a suicidal thoughts in your life you must skip chapter 6 end scene, its not a joke !
I agree with you to a certain extent. I've been in those dark places many times, so suicide is something close and personal to me, not something distant or unfathomable. The ending of chapter 6 left me in emotional turmoil and pain. At the same time, it's good to actually feel something, even if it's sadness and pain and not something positive, like joy or happiness.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you're in a bad place right now, then skip the end of chapter 6. I'm sure it could be a trigger for some. But if you've struggled with these kind of thoughts before, but are in a happier place right now, I don't think the ending would push you over the edge. Still, if you're not sure, then skip it.
So i have Leap of Faith 5.1c , i downloaded the 6.1 and it tells me its a patch, what do i exactly do to play Chapter 6? I don't know how to really play otherwise, aka I'm clueless , any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Also, With the attempt to start a party, it says there are no songs available, what do I do there?
I've just tried launching the game and it comes back with error and when I wanna load my save file or press ignore it takes me back to chapter 1, I'm really annoyed because I really don't wanna go through the entire story again. It took me so long to get every girls happy ending up til chapter 6. what do I do?
the ending to chapter 6 was absolutely phenomenal man, really sensitive and touching end. can't wait for ch7, love the storyline, artwork and overall progression of this novel. 11/10
What does the heartbeat monitor mean?
its symbolising the fact that cece was "dying" or "dead" because it flatlined, but if you watch til the very end, there's an extra beat. probably meaning shes not fully under. We'll have to wait and see in chapter 7 though.
