I finally finished the game, to anyone else I would say it takes at least 3 hours, I thought it would be like 1 hour, but I thought wrong. At least that's not what the short tag means by short. In my comment I am pointing out dialogue typos and also talking about some parts of the game so whoever didn't play, play the game first.

There is one thing I want to say though that doesn't really count as a spoiler in my opinion. This game is not a detective/crime investigation/Ace Attorney type of game. Although I got that impression from the description and the title coincidentally having same stock music as Zapdramatic's Ambition series. The "investigating a series of murder cases" is technically true but it is not a detective game.

Now typos:

There is a small typo saying "one fo those". 

A few dialogue boxes after that, the automatic forwarding is too fast to read (starting with "Wait") but I guess that could be on purpose cause it's cut off. 

Is it correct for "I'm completely serious" dialogue to be Nate because I thought it was the main character.

Same for "Oh, hi" textbox, advances way too fast to read, but again I guess that's on purpose because it's cut off and it's as if the characters didn't hear it clearly anyway (From here on I assume any cut off dialogue that skips too fast for me to read was meant to be too quick to see and it's intentional). 

Kai's sprite keeps going in between bloody and normal after he says "You can do what". 

Is it intentional every wrong choice makes you go back? (I guess it is but I am just confused because it only seems to affect anything for one choice)

Also "bulding," (building). "How do you do manage" (how do you manage). "when when I" (when I). "see besides leave the house" (I think you mean "much less leave the house", I've never heard "see besides" but if that's normal for you OK) 

"prescence" (presence). "composture" (composure). I don't think staring "stupendously" is correct but I guess it makes sense. What is a "chuck full of food" (never heard of a "chuck")?

"I've though" (I've thought).

Everything I am saying is in order as I experience it in the game. None of any spelling errors took away from my experience though.

In general I found it hard to get used to the automatic text advancing at first since it's not like most VNs but I'm ok with it now. Like in some other VNs, there were a couple times where I wondered if it was really a good idea to use my actual name for the game, when the protagonist started to do pretty wacky things using my name. But, I think was a good decision as it helped me understand what was going on, and it was a good thing that I didn't pick some weird name like "it343434" or something. Now that I finished it, I am wondering if there is a reason why the text in the movie near the end is in German, do you speak German or maybe are the characters/setting German? Also I just thought of something, does the character I have to name have a real canon name?

thank you so much for the feedback :) my reply is very late sorry

sorry about all the typos, there's too much to spell check and loads of dialogue, honestly cba to fix anything or touch the game since this is so old

btw the title music is gnossienne no 1
