Lookouts

I loved it!

lovely and adorable. great characters, story, and art!<3

Finally the review I've been preparing for

I have been in the special interest mood for Lookouts ever since December 2022, and now, since I got the Gold edition on my birthday two days ago, I can simply say.. a lot.

It's such an amazing game, even with the time constraints, it turned out great! As a queer transmasc myself, it really made me feel welcome too.

Every single character felt so.. nicely written. Even the ones who had to be slightly cut off due to time stuff(Black Vulture, still love the bastard, especially his backstory as it really does show how much living in a rich family while being prepared to uphold the proud lineage of the business, which ultimately overwhelms and you MIGHT be too used to that lifestyle and never let go, and that is what happened to him).

The backstories in the art book were also so pleasing. Same with the cutscenes. My personal favourite was the part where Black ranted about how 'good' he was in keep quiet+ run, because you could REALLY see how clouded he is by his past, by how he lived as a teenager before abandoning his family.

I also enjoy the fact that the game was made with so much research, for everything to make sense. It's something so special, and that part alone really made me love it.

Robin and Joseph's relationship was the key to it. It was heartwarming and sweet, to see them develop with one another, finally free from being under someone's shadow, having to defend the people they hated. They found their sweet resolve together, and their relations had amazing writing and it felt so real!

10/10, best game, special interest coming strong.

Also, gotta hate the soup spillers..

also if anyone ELSE is hyperfixated on lookouts please PLEASE interact 

Well, to say the least.. this is probably one of my favourite games ever. I loved the characters, the writing, everything was perfect. 10/10, will play again.

This game was so adorable! I loved every moment and the art style is just so funky and sweet. Great work, I 100% recommend this game for anyone wondering!

So CUTE!!! Finished it in one sitting and got teary-eyed at the end, such an amazing story and art style<3 10/10

Howdy y'all! Just wanted to pop by and say this lil' story was WONDERFUL! I started playing it on a work break and ended up bein' late back because I couldn't put it down!

Thank you for making something so special; it really pulled at my heart and I loved every second of it <3

Such a lovely game! Well more of a story but no less. I found myself so hooked with it, that i played it well into the night.

Really enjoyed how you used the music and how efficient you were with the design as a whole. Loved the art, and most of all that (for the very most part) the story made sense logically. I did find the lovey dovey bits just a smidge too drawn out, but it didnt detract much from the experience. Still sooo cute!

Thanks for this cool experience and all the best for your future endeavours!

i am going to tear up

gay birb and gay dawg so cute together ;w;

∞/10

Just finished the game in one sitting and im tearing up and smiling like an idiot <3

i wish i had what they have(their relationship

geez i didn't notice the mc didn't have one arm so when mentioned i was like ???

i don't know how this game made me cry as hard as it did, but it did!

genuinely one of my favourite vis novels ever and i can't wait to come back to it at some point because i was blown away.

LOOKOUTS WAS NOMINATED FOR AN URSA MAJOR AWARD BUT DIDNT WIN. I AM HEARTBROKEN.IN MY EYES YOU WILL ALWAYS BE BEST OF 2022

An amazing game with a wonderfully sweet story. The ending hit particularly hard, and I was glad to see it all through.

It felt too short, though not because the story was rushed or anything, but simply because I wanted to see so much more of it and these people.

Thank you for making this great game, I will be sure to follow you and try out any other upcoming things you'll do!

Wonderful story. I love the simplicity of the art as well.

I didn't get that the characters were trans until much later in the story and after reading the description! I thought the player character just loved the politeness of being called sir haha.

Adds more depth to the interactions in hindsight

im crying i love this so much

I created an account just to thank everyone involved in this, truly a masterpiece

Freaking. Amazing. Okay, so, first off, the art style is just amazing in so many ways. I love the charm it gives off and how simple it is. The story was well written too. Just beautiful. 100/10 Would (and already have multiple times) play again! You have made a work of art

i cried. cried, screamed and feared so much as i played, it hurt but it was the pain i didn't know i needed. i found myself in the mc and the game gave me lots of comfort...
the "i love you too. and i'm not scared of you" part got me the most, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS GAME <3

Being in a decisive period myself , this is what i needed. Sometimes all it takes is queer outlaws to get some of my passion back. TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WORKED ON THIS THANK YOU <3

I wish I knew how to put into words how this story made me feel, thank you.
I met someone,I want to find out who he is,I hope I have the courage to let him find out who I am too.

my friend got me to play this and my life has been irreversibly changed. sooo cute i love this so much

Screaming, crying, banging my head on the desk, drying into a husk and blowing away in the wind. 

This game got my heart pounding like crazy and i will carry it forever within my soul.

this shit made me want to eat my laptop (endearment)

Wow. Just flat out wonderful. It looks great, it sounds great, I cried several times. But more than all of that, it's just something that makes me happy. Something I intend to return to. Queer triumph is a powerful emotion, and its what will stick with me.

10/10 game. very lovely characters, well-made and captivating story. will 100% warm your heart! 💗

This was adorable! Loved it

OMG THIS IS A FULL GAME!!! I just finished playing the full version and I am in love with it all. The characters, the writing, the art, it's all so beautiful!

I've had this page bookmarked for years. I never knew that it was planned to be a full game, either. So when I was scrolling through my bookmarks and saw I still had this, my first thought was "Oh, this was such a good story! let me replay it, for nostalgia's sake." Then I open it and see the page is entirely different, new information, screenshots, art, and MERCH! I absolutely loved the original, and I love the full thing! It's perfect. I'm buying some merch of it secretly 'cause I'm not out yet.

I love this game so much, thank you so much!

100/10 this was wonderfu

made an account just to say, this game really rocks! luv the gay outlaws 10/10

oh my god that was probably one of the best games i've ever played in an insomnia induced haze. thank you for your service, dear developers!

This was a amazing game! I didn't get to complete it,(I accidentally reloaded the page with no save) but as far as I got I'm really impressed with it!

i like love this soo much.

Loved it. Thank you for making this game :) Made me all kinds of warm and fuzzy haha
