Wow. I am super impressed. You guys really outdid yourself on this game! I am amazed at how well the story was, and how good the art was! It was a truly awesome game, and I am absolutely astonished!
That was real nice, thank you. I have some kind of.... mental aversion to visual novels like this. I want to enjoy them, and I often do! But there's a fear I have of breaking open something internally. In my soul there's a big wad of scar tissue. A permanent scab. As mentally healthy as I am I refuse to break it open. I deathly fear developing the internal softness required to be the person I want to be. This leads me to feel constantly guarded around these types of experiences. I can't quite fully relax. I abstract it away by treating it like a puzzle. I flex the tactician and resource managements parts of my brain to avoid just... enjoying the art.
This is my own battle. But your game is real good! Cute gay cowboys :3
I made an account just to comment on this game, and I know that the likelihood of any of you ever seeing this is slim to none but this game genuinely affected me on a personal level. I don't know how or why but it just did. I don't have any money right now to donate but if I could I would give it to this game solely because of how much this silly dinky story of two gay gang members genuinely fucked me up in the emotions. It's probably because I've struggled a lot in life with sexuality and my own personal identity, and usually I tend to just avoid games like these because they make me think too much about it. I don't know, I just finished the game like less than an hour ago but just, WOW man. I hope anyone who sees this comment is doing well and I hope that the people who contributed to this game go far in life, remember to be true to yourselves everyone, I know I'm gonna start being truer to myself now. (Also now that I'm reading through the other comments, it feels good to see I'm not the only one this game affected dude. .) ~With much love Bongy
Read this in about 3 hours, this might be one of the greatest VN's I've ever read. I'm just at a loss, characters, world building, everything- I LOVEDDD it.
Nothing makes me happier than gay cowboys. Fantastic job you guys. <3
i literally just made this account to comment on this because it genuinely got to me.
This visual novel is wonderful, the way its written, the artstyle, the music, EVERYTHING, the characters all feel so real and the love between them is really genuine, the feeling of not fitting in is also very good represented, and as a fellow transfem it all felt way too close to home, NEVER in my life i thought i would cry to a visual novel, but the way this is written, its all so relatable and it hits like a dumptruck, you guys made a masterpiece, thank you for making such an amazing game.
Absolutely loved the story!!!!! I never read a better visual novel before, the art, the characters, the story and the music is just so perfect. If I had known about the menu in the top right corner I wouldn't have to click to the half of it, but it's alright, atleast I could read it in two days. I would definietly buy the gold edition if I had some more money, because you deserve it!! I hope to see more game from you! Thanks for this <3
THIS GAME IS AMAZING AND WHEN I SAID I CRIED I WAS POURING WATERFALLS. Imagine at the end credit scene you put the song "it's been a long, long time" IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AWASOME But it is what it is. AMAZING WORK,AMAZING DIALOGS, AMAZING ENDING, AMAZING MUSIC, AMAZING EVERYTHING AND I WOULD FORCE MY FRIEND TO PLAY THIS GAME AND IF I CAN I WILL REPLAY IT AS MUCH AS I CAN AND WANT TO
In the top right if you mouse over there's a menu bar where you can save and load. Sorry if you missed it before! I might make it more obvious in an update.
First comment ever on Itch! This was the top game of hundreds i've played on this platform. The way everything had a build up and the plot twists were absolutely insane! I loved the little scene of the kiss, it literally had me squealing. Shi when my mother made me cut the game off halfway i swear to you i was nonstop thinking about this game for 2 hours. Its now 2;14 AM and i don't regret staying up to play this silly little game :D! You guys made all of the characters so relatable and that was one of the best parts. ALSO THE DRAWINGSSSS- they were so adorableee. Anyway i hope you guys plan to make more games in the future because i will 100% be playing them. Tysm Devs for this wonderful heart-touching game <33
This is the first time I've actually written a comment on Itch and honestly, it's not gonna be wasted. The end made me full-on cry, I definitely was not expecting to start crying over a cute little anthropomorphic queer game, but here I am. I'll 100% be playing it again, it'll forever be in the back of my mind <3 If I could, I'd create a whole new number to rate this wonderful game with, I could feel how odd and new yet nice it was being called things like sir, gentleman, and stuff like that genuinely, instead of people mocking you. I absolutely love this game, and I wish you the best <3. 100/10.
This game was lovely. I didn't expect it, but I got that shakey breath, chin trembling typa cry out of it. I needed it, I think. Anyways, thanks for the beautiful game.
This was a really wonderful experience, thank you all so much for sharing this game! I often find it difficult to emotionally relate to portrayals of queer characters in media, but this game really resonated with me. From the characters, to the art, the music, the writing, to the ideas of uncertainty in knowing what you want, being vulnerable enough to learn and share with another, handling freedom from others - it all felt especially genuine and made me cry, and I really appreciate that it did lol. I’ll have to come back to this again soon, keep making great stuff!
This game was so cute, like ughhhh it's so good! If you're considering playing it, you really should - it's amazing, from story to world-building to art style and more ^O^
BEST GAME IV PLAYED ALL YEAR!!! My throat is struggling after hours of narrating this to my friend on call but it was sooo worth it to play this masterpiece of a game, might even replay to post on yt! < 33333 lots of love, a pardner
wow. I cannot describe how this game felt to me, everything was perfect, beautiful designs, art and colors, well written, awesome characters...truly a masterpiece, the story really touched my heart, I loved it. <33
this game makes me want to cry and I'm so grateful for it. I wish I had what joseph and robin have more than anything tbh. This is exactly what I needed today, i hope you guys know well that Lookouts, you guys, have done wonders for us. Happy Holidays, keep doing what you do, and keep your head up.<333
I am in love with this game. Honestly an emotional rollercoaster that has a good ending, I've literally never been so moved by a video game or any other piece of media now that I think about it, Throughout the whole game my heart melted over and over again, and I would love a sequel. <3

One of the best visual novels i've read, love love love the storytelling and the characters so muchh
Incredible!!! I said as much in my review, but amazing stuff, can't wait for the last 2 little mini comics, and to see what you guys work on next!
El arte es realmente bueno, y la historia uff
Absolutely loved the story!!!!! I never read a better visual novel before, the art, the characters, the story and the music is just so perfect.

dodge city mentioned hell yea
Crying, this game was absolutely amazing and I related to the character a whole lot more than I should've.
Such a lovely novel! Appreciate the representation!
I just wish it could save when i leave, close my laptop, or lose the internet lmao i got so much progress
Hi there, is the save functionality not working?
No, haha, I never knew there was one. I'm using web version, so maybe that's why?
In the top right if you mouse over there's a menu bar where you can save and load. Sorry if you missed it before! I might make it more obvious in an update.
Oh, I see it now. I have a (relatively small) chromebook, so most visual novels don't fit on the screen fully lmao
speedruns of this game are probably crazy
Clicks fast forward "Now let's break the world record B)"
Bro music is better than the whole game, I am now using it while a sleep and do work!
I nammee robin Two D while listening to plastic beach lmao
im not gay but this was 10/10
