Kind of intrigued by this game. The lines and shapes remind me very vaguely of a particular story chapter of KQ7 (or was it 8? the princeless bride disney-fest one) and its half-assed handling of steampunk tech, but this time this looks like it’s been done right.

“Hatoful Kareshi [J] (hato=dove, kareshi=boyfriend so it is a word play of “full of pigeons boyfriend” and “heartful boyfriend”) is a Japanese style text-and-image virtual school dating game for girls, except all of your school love-life targets are pigeons.”
OH MY GOD WHAT MORE COULD I POSSIBLY ADD TO THIS *brain explodes*
