This is a VN, made for Wholesome Games Jam of 2022! About community, chaotic siblings, hustle culture, and mindful communication.  Plan to implement more the next day!

This kinetic visual novel surrounds the story of Xue, whose parents are away and got caught up in work due to the pressure they and their past weighed upon themselves. To make amends with those feelings, they try to prove how much they could progress within society in such hustles. But is demanding more really the right way? Or accepting it, and reconciling with the past could do much more good? And how does one reunite with the community they isolated themself from?

Really nice visual novel!

I loved the art style, the UX is perfect (Renpy 💕) and the text is very well written! I would love to see a follow up on this.

Finding out which character is currently talking was a bit subtle and I had some trouble with that at first.

Thanks for the game I had a good time 💌

Sorry for the slow reply,  just opened itch after a while. I may color the characters so they are more noticeable to differentiate in future updates, thank you so much for pointing it out! 💞💞💞💞💞 I agree that Seii done a wonderful job with the UI and glad you like it, means a lot to us 🥺💓💘💖💞💗
