Hello! We're so sorry for the lack of updates recently- we most certainly still intend to finish the game, but real life has gotten in the way recently </3 you can follow us on Twitter for more updates, but thank you for your support until now!
Hello! Not to worry, we are still here! Progress is slow recently due to some IRL events, but we're definitely trying to finish the game at some point. You can follow us on Twitter for more updates- thank you for your patience and support until now!
Such an adorable game! It's really sweet and light, and can make you get your mind off things.
I love Maya! She's a character that I think most people can relate to, me included.
Honestly, I can't even decide my favorite LI yet because I like the three of them. Can't wait to play the rest of the routes!
The best part of the game for me is definitely the comedy and sense of humor. The awkward moments and Maya's interactions with the guys made me laugh a lot!
I'll definitely be waiting for the other routes to come out and be sure to enjoy all of them!
its really hard to pick a favourite theyre all so loveable i'm between robin and nico so i cant wait till nicos routes released! love this game so much !
This game is so cute, I love everyone, they're all so adorable, I want them, so please take your time, because this story is so good.
My favorite character gotta be Coco, like Coco just be the best.
But that Altair guy, and Jun, these characters are just so pretty, I wanna see more of him, but I have yet to play again, i've only finished Robin's route he's so cute.
I loved this game so much! The interaction between characters is quite cute. Maya herself is genuinely relatable!
It was really cute and fun, I'll be here for future updates for sure! The game was fun, I spent a good 2 hours on it, and I regret nothing at all.
The characters all have nice personalities, and honestly my favourite among all of them is Robin. He's such an adorable character, needless to say he's quite relatable. His route was so sweet, and I enjoyed it!
Maya was really likable, she's more likable than most female Otome protagonists I know of, she's also super pretty.
Thank you for this lovely game! I'll be awaiting for future updates.
This was so cute! I found myself smiling the whole time.
Maya's relationship with her brother reminds me of mine with my sister lol I do her homework all the time. Just older sibling things...but it's not like we mind that much.
Maya herself is so relatable! And not in a "oh I'm so quirky" way, but genuinely. I love how while she's the playable character, she's still very much 3D while still feeling immersive.
The route I ended up on my first playthrough by choosing answers I would normally choose irl was Nico, which...I shouldn't really be too surprised about. He's really cute! In a bratty sort of way, but it's somehow really charming!? Idk how you do it... Much respect.
I started over to try out Robin's route, and let me just say, HE IS THE CUTEST AWWW and his inner thoughts are the funniest lol poor guy. That moment when he used his jacket as a rain shield for Maya and him, but he let his side get rained on so Maya wouldn't be MY HEART!! I ended up getting the best ending but like him too much to attempt the bad endings. Jun is best wingman.
I love how Vivian looks the most "weird" but when you talk to him, he's the most normal out of the three. Eyebags from the student life...I feel.
As for other characters, I am seriously curious about that blond business card guy... (Edit: found out that he was a cameo character from your other game I THOUGHT HE LOOKED FAMILIAR)
This is already a really good otome game- the story, art, music, programming are all top tier! When I read the developers' notes about this being completely new territory I was shocked. This is really impressive!
I'll definitely be following this project! Can't believe I only found out about this game today...
Thank you so much for your kind words! You just might be the first person to mention Maya's sibling and we're happy that that stood out to you :'') all the best with your sister's homework hahaha
I absolutely adore this game. I'll be honest, im not a fan of "mascot characters" or that kitty cat chara so popular with the MC here at all, but that wont stop me from supporting this game with everything ive got and playing every new release! I think its a crime its free, but a crime that everyone benefits from so...
The art style is adorable and i love actually ALL the possible interests, which is very very rare for me. I had a hard time deciding who to pursue first. Nico is my absolute favorite but i adore them all.
And the MC is quite reasonable! I'm SO glad shes renameable- for me it really takes it from a vn to an actal otome.
I do wish there was an option to hide her portrait, it takes a little of the emersion out for me, and even irl you wouldnt see yourself while youre talking, would you? But i understand why its there and shes very cute
I like that theres an affection meter, but id definitely like more of an indicator of if a choice was the best one or not. it felt a little bit vague on if a character was happy with my answers or not, and in the end, a lot of the time it felt like it really didnt even matter what I chose. But the game is fun to play, i want to play every route, and ill probably be playing them more than once when the game is done.
Omg I love this!! It was so cute and lighthearted and I might say that because I just got to Robin's route after accidentally going to Nico's route (happily waiting for his route!!) and I went to the best end as much as I could before I injure my heart with the other routes :'). But like this game was so good and cool especially with its unique design, art, and story!! Oh and I can't forget the music, I was vibing with the music and I was really excited to unlock the entirety of the music and the achievements, I'm so excited (yet dreading m( _ _ )m) to complete it all!!! AAAA thanks so much for creating and continuing this game~!!! :D
1. Which character did you like best?
Everyone, why did you make everyone so likable??? This is so unfair :((( Jk jk I really do love them all. MC was really likable and relatable I was laughing and dying of second hand embarrassment and slapping the table when she just gets screwed over in each scene, Robin my boy I absolutely want to pinch his cheeks and tease him I dread in going to his bad routes when I got the best ending but I'll do it for him, Nico (my heart) this boi has me in a chokehold he's so cute yet so sassy and with an attitude I feel like he would be the person to go to the counter and say "She said no pickles" while I'm behind him tugging on the end of his shirt and dying "Nico, Nico it's okay, plss, Nico pls stop--", Vivian?? Boy needs quality sleep and to vibe and I'm all ready to help him as much as I can "2022 Give Vivian A Break 😔✊", MC's best friend girl I'm bowing down to her she's such a friend that's so genuine I'm smiling everytime she comes up and I'm like "yassss the queen is here~!!!", Miles I don't know much about him but since I'm gunning for Nico's route (I am a woman on a mission) I'm excited to see his interactions with Nico because just from a snippet I absolutely loves how he trolls Nico over, and Jun??? BoY IF YOU DON'T MAKE A ROUTE FOR HIM I WILL-- jk jk I love his dynamic with Robin and I love how Robin was rightfully afraid of teh powers when MC and Jun meet, the black mail must be plentiful and like, can someone give Jun an award for putting up with Robin's indecisive ass and overthinking tendencies??? We stan a king of a friend my boys. I think that's every character sans teh mysterious business man we bumped into during the first minutes of the game, interesting and an eccentric personality that's for sure.
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
I'm not sure?? To be honest I kinda stayed late to finish Robin's best end and had to wake up early for a class so it kinda eludes me if I seen it, but I do remember like a normal credit page so I probably haven't unlocked it yet.
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
Everytime MC wakes up to give her morning greeting to herself, I always choose the one that was kinda cynical because fr that's what I would think. Robin's panic everytime and how he's overthinking especially when he was lamenting to himself about his missed opportunity to confess I can relate so damn hard it's so painful, whenever Nico opens his mouth because it's a gamble of what next thing he's gonna shit on and honestly I'm all in, and Vivian's multiple, sad, part time job, someone give this man some money for financial assistance smh.
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
Hmmm maybe more about Coco? Oh and the shenanigans of the side characters pls.
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
I commend you guys for being able to make this!! Especially when this must be the first time (is it?? I hope I didn't misread the notes you guys left) and programming is a pain in the ass yet you guys were able to do this stunning and wonderful visual novel! So cool and admirable!! Can't wait to play the rest of the game~!!!
Thank you so much for this comment!!! We are really glad that you liked the characters and the game <3 WE SEE THE NICO BIAS AND WE HEAR U WE WILL DO OUR BEST ON HIS ROUTE FOR YOU! Also thank you for appreciating the side characters as well...DO NOT WORRY THEY WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!
AAAAA I'm sorry I couldn't help but stare at your pfp I absolutely love itttttt. Anyway, I can't believe rereading my comment I saw how heavy the Nico bias is but I believe I have a type-- Either way! Very excited and good luck to you guys! More power to power through the development!!!
Hmm why i can't get "Robin achievement 3"? Is that have special thing to get that ending? Robin bad end, friendship and best end, i got them all. But why achievement 3 so hard to get it?😭
OMG the game was so good and special Robins route!! well writed, the expretions are THE BEST and it was so fun! the main character was a total mood:) i appretiated everything even the ace attorney sounds!! i'd love to see more about vivian and coco (and by that i mean how he is as a character in that "sanrio" universe.) the only thing i suggest is that if can have more music variation soon, but still cool!! very cool game and ill wait happy when its finished n_n
pd: apollogy my bad english, im a spanish speaker so i can't say that much!:) thanks!
Please don't apologise about your English, it's very good!! We are so touched that you left this comment for us as well! Thank you so much for playing our game, and for your feedback!
hi!!! i just finished this game 10 minutes ago, i really enjoyed it! (warning: spoilers)
1. Which character did you like best?
i really liked vivian's sense of humor and everything, but i love them all so much so i can't really rank them
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
y e s. i loved it. very much.
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
i really loved the part where maya rambles on about her unsaid thoughts while thinking about how she's saying too much. she's such a mood, and i liked when robin goes to hug her. that moment was really oh so wholesome
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
i would love to see vivian's roommate LOL. like, his thing was... weird, but pretty interesting! (also funny, that literally caught me off guard; i thought it was a house party or whatever) other than that, i'd just want you guys to be able to finish all of their routes! this was a really great game!
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
i just wanna say, for you to make this game while not knowing ANYTHING about coding is really impressive. i cannot even imagine how stressful and overwhelming that would be for me ^^;
thank you for the game! i will stick around for any future projects you'll have in the future!
Thank you so much for your comment! We're really happy that you enjoyed the characters and the humour (stick around for more of Vivian's roommate in future routes)~ we will do our best!
Vivian !! i adore him omg im looking forward to when his and Nico's routes come out :D
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
Nope not yet but I hope to soon
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
All scenes with Vivian and also the scene where Nico was doing MCs makeup :o
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
Hmmm maybe Jun he's pretty cool ^__^
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
I really like the game as it is, especially the visuals and all are really pretty :DD I think I found a new favourite game lol. Also one last thing, remember to take breaks and not rush and stufff
I CAN'T. THE DIOLOGUE, THE HUMOR- IT'S SO GOOD! ヽ(o＾▽＾o)ノ My favorite character has to be between Robin and Vivian, they both have my heart (人´∀｀) Yes, I was able to unlock the post-credits scene! I do wish to see more of Coco, even though he is EVERYWHERE. (￣ω￣) Lastly, I would like to tell you to take your time! Nonetheless I enjoyed the game! ( ´ ω ` )
The one route that is already out is so cute. I love when we can see stuff from the Male character's perspective. Looking forward to your next projects
I just played Robin's route and this is the CUTEST thing EVER. Oh my god. I literally can not wait for the other 2 routes, this was so nice and wholesome! <3
Re playing it again before the school vacation ends lol, I noticed there's a one bug. So the scene is when they were talking about marketing plan in park and Mc want to help so she ask when will they need it. I think the dialogue that Robin should say is, "it'll be nice if we could get it this week." or something like that.
1. Which character did you like best?
• I cant choose xD I like all of them <3 but for now I'll choose Robin, I keep smiling that makes my jaw hurt while doing his route. I love how he look cute when he's flustered and shy >///< I also like how supportive and sweet he is towards to Mc. Dont forget his POV too! As for Nico, I also like him haha he was tsun tsun how cute >///< Oh and there's also Vivian hehe. I even accidentally got in his route because he's affection rate is much higher than Robin at my first try lol.
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
• I'm actually not sure if I got it, but if its the end scene where they were bidding, then I do manage to unlock it.
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
• Hoho, I like the scene where Robin used the Coco dolls to make the cute kid stop crying. It was adorable <3 In his route, I also love how he comfort Mc by hugging her before he confess and so those lovey dovey scenes. There is also time when he tried to get the matching Coco chains for Mc in gatcha machine, additional for that is the scene where Robin praised Maya for coming up with the commercial idea.
There is also a scene when Nico putting make up to Mc, I love tsundere, like during their first encounter. He even willing to use the extra tiny defected totes cuz' Mc doesn't grab one. I like to see his blush lmao. I also found it quite fun during his extra in Robin's route lol
I also like Vivian! I love how he grin during the delivery scene with a sound effect too xD although its weird to see a art gallary(?) with bunch of hotdog or idunno xD
The one I laughed the most is during Altair's guest appearance. Its during the time when Faye send a message to the number in calling card lolol
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
• Ohh, I do love to see more about Miles, Jun and Faye~ It would also be good if we could glance about the little bro of Mc :'3
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
• Domo arigatou~ I really do enjoy it. tbh, I was restricting myself from playing this when I download it and wait for more updates but I cant help but play it. The charm is too strong >3< I love the art, it was well drawn, like whaaa?! how kawaii >3< . I also like how you could see the affection rates of each potential partners. Coco design is cute too, especially those stickers. Uwaa <3 I also keep listening about the BGM. It was cute and entertaining.
I cant wait to see Nico and Vivian's routes soon <3 im rooting for you guys. It was a wonderful game
p.s. Can you get both Nico and Vivian's achivement no.1 in the current version or you have to wait for their route to be release before you unlock that?
We're so happy you enjoyed the game (and we're so touched that you replayed it!! It brings so much joy to our hearts) <3
Regarding the bug, thank you so much for bringing it to our attention, we'll have a look and make the necessary changes before the next release! As for the other characters' achievements, you'll have to get them when their routes are out- we're sorry about that!
We're so glad that you liked the characters and the art, we'll do our best to keep it up in the next instalments~ thank you for your kind comments on all of them hehe (ps don't worry, there will be more of Miles and Jun and Faye in the other routes too~) (pps your idea about including Maya's little brother is very intriguing! Stay tuned for more perhaps)!
I shall write the question comment when I finish downloading this other game, I accidently erased it when I was trying to free up space. The reason I'm even writing this is b/c I remember things better when I leave a comment that may destroy my social life :3 Also If I'm being 100% honest, I tried to avoid this game b/c of its very delightful colors, I clicked on it b/c I was tryna find more good dating games and Ig Ill find out if it is good enough for my quite refined taste (no but fr, I have only downloaded like what? 20 games in the past 2 years after I found this website?)
omg same I just stopped at this comment cuz I totally relate lol also I think I saw you comment on our life too?? Trust me it never stops, I've been using this website for almost 3 years now and I can't even count how many otome and dating games I've downloaded... oh well who needs a social life anymore
lolll same mine is barely hanging on I'm TERRIFIED it'll die on me soon I've got so much otome game progress on here not to mention I'd have a heart attack if my our life progress got deleted since it just so personalized to my ocs
I agree lol. I have unfinished otome games but I DO NOT want to delete any of them. I honestly wish my willpower improves at this point- bc tbh most of my games are unfinished! SAVE MEEE
Hello devs! I wanted to thank you for making such a gem of a game <3 Playing through it made me realize I don't just *like* romcom otomes, but I *love* them! I had so many emotions finishing Robin's routes that I had to step back so I don't just word dump, but here it goes!
The writing was incredibly witty and realistic all throughout, and I love that you can really build the character that Maya is because not all choices contribute to the affection meter. (Might have to use some of those manifestations myself!) You made all the characters have fun and unique personalities that fit the bright and bubbly world of Heart a la Mode! Even the side characters shine, which is a testament to how much thought went into them. There were instances where I straight up lol-ed cause the humor is so fun <3 Also the POV switches? Beautiful, amazing. I love it when otome games do it, and your game really made the switches so fun and sweet to read through.
The art is so wonderful as well! It's light, soft, and delivers the pastel vibes of the world so, so well. The BGs fit so nicely (s/o to the bedroom, cause I just love imagining the player coming home to a literal Coco shrine HAHAH) The GUI delivers the vibes well, and everything is just bathed in pink that it really drives home the cute romcom vibes to the max. Also Coco. No words - just Coco. The details in the stickers, the plushies, and everything Coco is so *chef's kiss* I, too, would be obsessed if they were an actual irl mascot.
It was also lovely to read the developer's notes! I could see that there was a lot of love put into the game and that you guys had fun with it, and I just love how that all shines through with the game. I eagerly look forward to the full release and playing through Nico and Vivian's routes soon! Thank you for sharing this game <3
**SPOILER
Can I also say how much I appreciated the way Robin was so supportive of the player and their writing? As someone who's felt kind of out of touch with their creative juices lately, it really made me tear up cause it felt like I just needed to hear it. Thank you, Yapperu Studios, you guys are great. <3
we really cannot thank you enough for this immensely sweet and touching message...WE DONT JUST *LIKE* IT...WE *LOVE* IT <3 <3 <3 we are so glad that you enjoyed the game and we really appreciate that you noticed the details we tried to include (even reading our developers notes ahhhhh)!
it's messages like this that motivate us to carry on, and we really are so grateful for your support and hope that our game was able to bring a little bit of lightness to you~ we wish you all the best in your own creation journey, and always remember that we (and the cast of course!) are rooting for you no matter what :-) you've got this!
We're so happy you enjoyed the game (and the Maya / Faye interactions which hold a special place in our hearts as well <3)! Rest assured that you'll be seeing more of her in the other routes ;)
PS: We have been thinking about making those Coco stickers a reality! We'll keep you posted!
HELLO!!!!!! WE ARE EXTREMELY HAPPY THAT U ENJOYED THE GAME (especially a certain brat) but please keep your soul... his ego does not need to be fed anymore </3 we do love an artistic skilled at makeup man though. PS. if you're curious about the post credits scene, you can check out the walkthrough in the game description, or just read on to find out!!
**SPOILERS BELOW
for the daily affirmations, always choose the one that repeats every day!
[Contains some spoilers] Nico is definitely my favorite (just going with the flow of choices that felt right on my first tries, I ended up with a whole 42 affection points for him lol), but I really love Robin and Vivian too. I'm a huge fan of otome games, and this is absolutely the best one I've ever played. It's probably because it aligns with all of my personal tastes (I really really love the soft and cutesy aesthetics, and all of the love interests are also very much to my liking lol) as well as being personally relatable (I too love cute mascot characters, though I'm not nearly as devoted as Maya and Robin... I'm also someone who loves writing but is really insecure about it). I enjoyed the whole thing so very much!! As far as my favorite parts... I was swooning when Nico did Maya's makeup (as someone who doesn't know shit about makeup, having someone do my makeup really nicely is a dream). I also almost cried when Robin hugged Maya (I was cheering too! I loved the whole scene!), though his bleeped-out cursing immediately after made me laugh so hard I legitimately almost fell on the floor and had to catch my breath for a minute. I "aww"'d aloud so often during the whole game. I'm really curious about Altair, and I think it'd be fun if he showed up again sometime (to get some jealous love interest fanservice or as a cool friend or something... I think it'd be hilarious for him to get in a Battle of the Prettyboys versus Nico since they're both so gorgeous, and I'm sure that our darling Nico could rip him to shreds<3). I can't thank you enough for this game! I've had numerous awful little inconveniences piling up recently, so I was feeling pretty shitty earlier today, and worrying a lot about my birthday (it's few days but things aren't looking so good). I'm really so glad that I found this game and played it! It lifted my spirits so much. I actually burst into tears at the end of Robin's route (lucky me, I got the best end on my first try!) just because I felt so happy and de-stressed (I definitely needed a good cry). I feel so deeply fulfilled! Another detail I really liked was Maya's daily affirmations. It felt a little silly at first, but even if it is, it's also really nice too? I wanna start doing that now!!! I can't wait to play the other routes too (I feel like this is gonna be a huge comfort game for me) whenever they release. Thank you so much for this absolutely wonderful experience! I would also sell my soul for some Coco merch; he's the cutest!
Thank you so much for this immensely sweet and detailed comment- to say that it's made our entire Christmas and New Year would not be an understatement at all! We're beyond grateful for all the feedback and kind words, and we are so so so happy that you enjoyed the game!! It's always great to find fellow mascot fans (don't worry, we aren't on Maya and Robin's levels either lol) and we will... definitely look into the Coco merch...(after we finish the game...)...as we ourselves would love to own some too!!
**SPOILERS BELOW
Altair is actually a ~ guest character ~ from another game that our artist is working on which you can find here: https://fishattic.itch.io/stand-by-me-demo! This battle that you are suggesting does indeed sound intriguing though lol. Nico tries to be #savage and #vicious but he really does have his moments. We can't wait for you to see his route and hope with all our hearts that you'll enjoy it! It makes us really really glad to hear that people enjoyed certain scenes, or that they laughed at something- it's things like these that keep us going.
We're really happy that this game was able to comfort you or help you in some small way- we hope that we're not too late to wish you a happy birthday as well, and our wish for you is for the worries that you've been carrying around to be resolved. It's a fresh year and a fresh start, and we are so happy to have been a part of your journey in some small way. All the best for everything (hope those affirmations go well!) in life and in your writing should you choose to carry on with it! We (and the rest of the cast) will be here cheering you on! We believe in you and the stories that you want to tell, and would love to read them if you'd like to share them with us too :-)
bro this games so good. man all of the characters are so likeable, and you just want to play more of the game at all times. this is one of the first otome games ive ever played so im very impressed. the art is really nice as well! i also really like how they give multiple options for how you want to respond to others. it adds some personality to the usually naive and bland mc. honestly this game has made my day. i am now going to wait for a new route because i am desperate for more content. i definitely recommend this game for whenever you're bored or just want to feel all happy n shi. good luck with the rest of the game!
Thank you so much for your kind words and feedback! We're so happy that our game was able to bring you some joy :'') We will do our best to bring you the rest of the routes as soon as possible!
this game was WAY too cute ( ´ ▽ ` ).｡ｏ♡ it's probably the only visual novel i can bring myself to finish lololol and it was super entertaining throughout. i love how it's straight to the point instead of giving a bunch of useless, boring dialogue before we actually get to the good part (btw the whole game was "the good part" so no complaints there). the art is adorable and i think the whole "texting" idea with all the coco stickers was really creative too! i also didn't really expect multiple endings for one character since this was made for a game jam and i'm guessing you didn't have that much time to make the whole thing, but i was pleasantly surprised either way. overall this is definitely a fun game to pass time with and i'm super excited for its future (especially vivian's route hehe) :D hoping to see more of miles too in nico's route!
(spoilers) if i were to be nitpicky though, i'd suggest giving subtle hints that maya was the one who outbid robin in that coco auction (maybe we have a short scene or conversation of her talking to faye about finally getting that limited edition plushie or something) or else that ending seems a bit random and "forced" in there just for comedic value, instead of actually being canon (?). some of the anatomy and perspectives also seem a bit off in some scenes (side profiles, the cg of the little girl at the start, the cg when we meet vivian in the mall, also the part right after robin hugs us and his sprite looks kinda blurry/low resolution) but it's understandable! i don't expect the artwork to be perfect and it's better than a LOT of other small visual novel games for sure (especially cause this was made in a relatively short period of time), but just something to be aware of in the future! it actually makes me feel kinda nostalgic and reminds me of old otome games i played when i was younger so it's not necessarily a bad thing. i could go into more detail but this comment is really long and i'm not here to give an art lesson lolol but either way the overall style and vibe of the entire game is super cute and i can't wait to go through new dialogue and endings next time! (≧◡≦)b
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this comment~ we really appreciate it and we're so happy you had fun with the game! We did our best to have as many endings as was realistically possible, so we hope you enjoyed going through them~
****SPOILERS BELOW
The extra scene that we added is meant to be a surprise for the viewers, but we didn't want it to be sort of a "if you don't see it you'll feel like something's missing" kind of thing, so it wasn't really linked to the rest of the game! We hope you still enjoyed it despite the relative suddenness of it :'')
Thank you also for your feedback on the art- we will do our best to improve in our next instalments!

Such a cute game! I really enjoyed it ~
I can't see any progress updates for 2022. Is this game still being developed? I can't wait to read more ^_^
Hello! Not to worry, we are still here! Progress is slow recently due to some IRL events, but we're definitely trying to finish the game at some point. You can follow us on Twitter for more updates- thank you for your patience and support until now!
Such an adorable game! It's really sweet and light, and can make you get your mind off things.
I love Maya! She's a character that I think most people can relate to, me included.
Honestly, I can't even decide my favorite LI yet because I like the three of them. Can't wait to play the rest of the routes!
The best part of the game for me is definitely the comedy and sense of humor. The awkward moments and Maya's interactions with the guys made me laugh a lot!
I'll definitely be waiting for the other routes to come out and be sure to enjoy all of them!
Thank you so much!! We're glad that we were able to make you laugh :-)
its really hard to pick a favourite theyre all so loveable i'm between robin and nico so i cant wait till nicos routes released! love this game so much !
Thank you! We'll do our best for the future routes!
This game is so cute, I love everyone, they're all so adorable, I want them, so please take your time, because this story is so good.
My favorite character gotta be Coco, like Coco just be the best.
But that Altair guy, and Jun, these characters are just so pretty, I wanna see more of him, but I have yet to play again, i've only finished Robin's route he's so cute.
COCO SUPREMACY
PLS VIVIAN ROUTE WHEN 💔💔
WE WILL DO OUR BEST <3
YAYAYA cant wait!!!
Me want vivian
We will do our best <3
I loved this game so much! The interaction between characters is quite cute. Maya herself is genuinely relatable!
It was really cute and fun, I'll be here for future updates for sure! The game was fun, I spent a good 2 hours on it, and I regret nothing at all.
The characters all have nice personalities, and honestly my favourite among all of them is Robin. He's such an adorable character, needless to say he's quite relatable. His route was so sweet, and I enjoyed it!
Maya was really likable, she's more likable than most female Otome protagonists I know of, she's also super pretty.
Thank you for this lovely game! I'll be awaiting for future updates.
Thank you so much for your comments, we're glad you enjoyed the game!
This was so cute! I found myself smiling the whole time.
Maya's relationship with her brother reminds me of mine with my sister lol I do her homework all the time. Just older sibling things...but it's not like we mind that much.
Maya herself is so relatable! And not in a "oh I'm so quirky" way, but genuinely. I love how while she's the playable character, she's still very much 3D while still feeling immersive.
The route I ended up on my first playthrough by choosing answers I would normally choose irl was Nico, which...I shouldn't really be too surprised about. He's really cute! In a bratty sort of way, but it's somehow really charming!? Idk how you do it... Much respect.
I started over to try out Robin's route, and let me just say, HE IS THE CUTEST AWWW and his inner thoughts are the funniest lol poor guy. That moment when he used his jacket as a rain shield for Maya and him, but he let his side get rained on so Maya wouldn't be MY HEART!! I ended up getting the best ending but like him too much to attempt the bad endings. Jun is best wingman.
I love how Vivian looks the most "weird" but when you talk to him, he's the most normal out of the three. Eyebags from the student life...I feel.
As for other characters, I am seriously curious about that blond business card guy... (Edit: found out that he was a cameo character from your other game I THOUGHT HE LOOKED FAMILIAR)
This is already a really good otome game- the story, art, music, programming are all top tier! When I read the developers' notes about this being completely new territory I was shocked. This is really impressive!
I'll definitely be following this project! Can't believe I only found out about this game today...
Thank you so much for your kind words! You just might be the first person to mention Maya's sibling and we're happy that that stood out to you :'') all the best with your sister's homework hahaha
I was really cute and fun! I'll be waiting for future updates for sure!
We're happy you enjoyed!
I absolutely adore this game. I'll be honest, im not a fan of "mascot characters" or that kitty cat chara so popular with the MC here at all, but that wont stop me from supporting this game with everything ive got and playing every new release! I think its a crime its free, but a crime that everyone benefits from so...
The art style is adorable and i love actually ALL the possible interests, which is very very rare for me. I had a hard time deciding who to pursue first. Nico is my absolute favorite but i adore them all.
And the MC is quite reasonable! I'm SO glad shes renameable- for me it really takes it from a vn to an actal otome.
I do wish there was an option to hide her portrait, it takes a little of the emersion out for me, and even irl you wouldnt see yourself while youre talking, would you? But i understand why its there and shes very cute
I like that theres an affection meter, but id definitely like more of an indicator of if a choice was the best one or not. it felt a little bit vague on if a character was happy with my answers or not, and in the end, a lot of the time it felt like it really didnt even matter what I chose. But the game is fun to play, i want to play every route, and ill probably be playing them more than once when the game is done.
Hello! Thank you so much for your feedback on the game, we'll take note of it! We're glad you had fun <3
Omg I love this!! It was so cute and lighthearted and I might say that because I just got to Robin's route after accidentally going to Nico's route (happily waiting for his route!!) and I went to the best end as much as I could before I injure my heart with the other routes :'). But like this game was so good and cool especially with its unique design, art, and story!! Oh and I can't forget the music, I was vibing with the music and I was really excited to unlock the entirety of the music and the achievements, I'm so excited (yet dreading m( _ _ )m) to complete it all!!! AAAA thanks so much for creating and continuing this game~!!! :D
1. Which character did you like best?
Everyone, why did you make everyone so likable??? This is so unfair :((( Jk jk I really do love them all. MC was really likable and relatable I was laughing and dying of second hand embarrassment and slapping the table when she just gets screwed over in each scene, Robin my boy I absolutely want to pinch his cheeks and tease him I dread in going to his bad routes when I got the best ending but I'll do it for him, Nico (my heart) this boi has me in a chokehold he's so cute yet so sassy and with an attitude I feel like he would be the person to go to the counter and say "She said no pickles" while I'm behind him tugging on the end of his shirt and dying "Nico, Nico it's okay, plss, Nico pls stop--", Vivian?? Boy needs quality sleep and to vibe and I'm all ready to help him as much as I can "2022 Give Vivian A Break 😔✊", MC's best friend girl I'm bowing down to her she's such a friend that's so genuine I'm smiling everytime she comes up and I'm like "yassss the queen is here~!!!", Miles I don't know much about him but since I'm gunning for Nico's route (I am a woman on a mission) I'm excited to see his interactions with Nico because just from a snippet I absolutely loves how he trolls Nico over, and Jun??? BoY IF YOU DON'T MAKE A ROUTE FOR HIM I WILL-- jk jk I love his dynamic with Robin and I love how Robin was rightfully afraid of teh powers when MC and Jun meet, the black mail must be plentiful and like, can someone give Jun an award for putting up with Robin's indecisive ass and overthinking tendencies??? We stan a king of a friend my boys. I think that's every character sans teh mysterious business man we bumped into during the first minutes of the game, interesting and an eccentric personality that's for sure.
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
I'm not sure?? To be honest I kinda stayed late to finish Robin's best end and had to wake up early for a class so it kinda eludes me if I seen it, but I do remember like a normal credit page so I probably haven't unlocked it yet.
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
Everytime MC wakes up to give her morning greeting to herself, I always choose the one that was kinda cynical because fr that's what I would think. Robin's panic everytime and how he's overthinking especially when he was lamenting to himself about his missed opportunity to confess I can relate so damn hard it's so painful, whenever Nico opens his mouth because it's a gamble of what next thing he's gonna shit on and honestly I'm all in, and Vivian's multiple, sad, part time job, someone give this man some money for financial assistance smh.
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
Hmmm maybe more about Coco? Oh and the shenanigans of the side characters pls.
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
I commend you guys for being able to make this!! Especially when this must be the first time (is it?? I hope I didn't misread the notes you guys left) and programming is a pain in the ass yet you guys were able to do this stunning and wonderful visual novel! So cool and admirable!! Can't wait to play the rest of the game~!!!
Thank you so much for this comment!!! We are really glad that you liked the characters and the game <3 WE SEE THE NICO BIAS AND WE HEAR U WE WILL DO OUR BEST ON HIS ROUTE FOR YOU! Also thank you for appreciating the side characters as well...DO NOT WORRY THEY WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!
AAAAA I'm sorry I couldn't help but stare at your pfp I absolutely love itttttt. Anyway, I can't believe rereading my comment I saw how heavy the Nico bias is but I believe I have a type-- Either way! Very excited and good luck to you guys! More power to power through the development!!!
It was a fun game!
We're glad you enjoyed it!
Hmm why i can't get "Robin achievement 3"? Is that have special thing to get that ending? Robin bad end, friendship and best end, i got them all. But why achievement 3 so hard to get it?😭

The one route that is already out is so cute. I love when we can see stuff from the Male character's perspective. Looking forward to your next projects
Thank you so much, we're so happy you enjoyed the game! We'll do our best on the other routes too!
I just played Robin's route and this is the CUTEST thing EVER. Oh my god.
I literally can not wait for the other 2 routes, this was so nice and wholesome! <3
Thank you so much for your kind message, and for your patience as well!
Re playing it again before the school vacation ends lol, I noticed there's a one bug. So the scene is when they were talking about marketing plan in park and Mc want to help so she ask when will they need it. I think the dialogue that Robin should say is, "it'll be nice if we could get it this week." or something like that.
1. Which character did you like best?
• I cant choose xD I like all of them <3 but for now I'll choose Robin, I keep smiling that makes my jaw hurt while doing his route. I love how he look cute when he's flustered and shy >///< I also like how supportive and sweet he is towards to Mc. Dont forget his POV too! As for Nico, I also like him haha he was tsun tsun how cute >///< Oh and there's also Vivian hehe. I even accidentally got in his route because he's affection rate is much higher than Robin at my first try lol.
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
• I'm actually not sure if I got it, but if its the end scene where they were bidding, then I do manage to unlock it.
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
• Hoho, I like the scene where Robin used the Coco dolls to make the cute kid stop crying. It was adorable <3 In his route, I also love how he comfort Mc by hugging her before he confess and so those lovey dovey scenes. There is also time when he tried to get the matching Coco chains for Mc in gatcha machine, additional for that is the scene where Robin praised Maya for coming up with the commercial idea.
There is also a scene when Nico putting make up to Mc, I love tsundere, like during their first encounter. He even willing to use the extra tiny defected totes cuz' Mc doesn't grab one. I like to see his blush lmao. I also found it quite fun during his extra in Robin's route lol
I also like Vivian! I love how he grin during the delivery scene with a sound effect too xD although its weird to see a art gallary(?) with bunch of hotdog or idunno xD
The one I laughed the most is during Altair's guest appearance. Its during the time when Faye send a message to the number in calling card lolol
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
• Ohh, I do love to see more about Miles, Jun and Faye~ It would also be good if we could glance about the little bro of Mc :'3
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
• Domo arigatou~ I really do enjoy it. tbh, I was restricting myself from playing this when I download it and wait for more updates but I cant help but play it. The charm is too strong >3< I love the art, it was well drawn, like whaaa?! how kawaii >3< . I also like how you could see the affection rates of each potential partners. Coco design is cute too, especially those stickers. Uwaa <3 I also keep listening about the BGM. It was cute and entertaining.
I cant wait to see Nico and Vivian's routes soon <3 im rooting for you guys. It was a wonderful game
p.s. Can you get both Nico and Vivian's achivement no.1 in the current version or you have to wait for their route to be release before you unlock that?
We're so happy you enjoyed the game (and we're so touched that you replayed it!! It brings so much joy to our hearts) <3
Regarding the bug, thank you so much for bringing it to our attention, we'll have a look and make the necessary changes before the next release! As for the other characters' achievements, you'll have to get them when their routes are out- we're sorry about that!
We're so glad that you liked the characters and the art, we'll do our best to keep it up in the next instalments~ thank you for your kind comments on all of them hehe (ps don't worry, there will be more of Miles and Jun and Faye in the other routes too~) (pps your idea about including Maya's little brother is very intriguing! Stay tuned for more perhaps)!
god the dialogue is so GOOD
NO U
I shall write the question comment when I finish downloading this other game, I accidently erased it when I was trying to free up space. The reason I'm even writing this is b/c I remember things better when I leave a comment that may destroy my social life :3 Also If I'm being 100% honest, I tried to avoid this game b/c of its very delightful colors, I clicked on it b/c I was tryna find more good dating games and Ig Ill find out if it is good enough for my quite refined taste (no but fr, I have only downloaded like what? 20 games in the past 2 years after I found this website?)
omg same I just stopped at this comment cuz I totally relate lol also I think I saw you comment on our life too?? Trust me it never stops, I've been using this website for almost 3 years now and I can't even count how many otome and dating games I've downloaded... oh well who needs a social life anymore
I think you're my lost half-soul... my pc might as well explode from all the games I have from this website.
lolll same mine is barely hanging on I'm TERRIFIED it'll die on me soon I've got so much otome game progress on here not to mention I'd have a heart attack if my our life progress got deleted since it just so personalized to my ocs
I agree lol. I have unfinished otome games but I DO NOT want to delete any of them. I honestly wish my willpower improves at this point- bc tbh most of my games are unfinished! SAVE MEEE
Aw that sucks, I got some unfinished games too but usually I complete at least the routes for the characters I like lol
Hello devs! I wanted to thank you for making such a gem of a game <3 Playing through it made me realize I don't just *like* romcom otomes, but I *love* them! I had so many emotions finishing Robin's routes that I had to step back so I don't just word dump, but here it goes!
The writing was incredibly witty and realistic all throughout, and I love that you can really build the character that Maya is because not all choices contribute to the affection meter. (Might have to use some of those manifestations myself!) You made all the characters have fun and unique personalities that fit the bright and bubbly world of Heart a la Mode! Even the side characters shine, which is a testament to how much thought went into them. There were instances where I straight up lol-ed cause the humor is so fun <3 Also the POV switches? Beautiful, amazing. I love it when otome games do it, and your game really made the switches so fun and sweet to read through.
The art is so wonderful as well! It's light, soft, and delivers the pastel vibes of the world so, so well. The BGs fit so nicely (s/o to the bedroom, cause I just love imagining the player coming home to a literal Coco shrine HAHAH) The GUI delivers the vibes well, and everything is just bathed in pink that it really drives home the cute romcom vibes to the max. Also Coco. No words - just Coco. The details in the stickers, the plushies, and everything Coco is so *chef's kiss* I, too, would be obsessed if they were an actual irl mascot.
It was also lovely to read the developer's notes! I could see that there was a lot of love put into the game and that you guys had fun with it, and I just love how that all shines through with the game. I eagerly look forward to the full release and playing through Nico and Vivian's routes soon! Thank you for sharing this game <3
**SPOILER
Can I also say how much I appreciated the way Robin was so supportive of the player and their writing? As someone who's felt kind of out of touch with their creative juices lately, it really made me tear up cause it felt like I just needed to hear it. Thank you, Yapperu Studios, you guys are great. <3
we really cannot thank you enough for this immensely sweet and touching message...WE DONT JUST *LIKE* IT...WE *LOVE* IT <3 <3 <3 we are so glad that you enjoyed the game and we really appreciate that you noticed the details we tried to include (even reading our developers notes ahhhhh)!
it's messages like this that motivate us to carry on, and we really are so grateful for your support and hope that our game was able to bring a little bit of lightness to you~ we wish you all the best in your own creation journey, and always remember that we (and the cast of course!) are rooting for you no matter what :-) you've got this!
1. Which character did you like best?
I think I'm going to like Vivian the best when there's more to that route, but the best friend is my favourite.
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
YES!
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
I loved any interaction between the main character and her best friend. I laughed out loud at so much of their dialogue.
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
1000% would use stickers/Coco emojis. It's delightfully meta.
We'd love to hear from you in the comments!
We're so happy you enjoyed the game (and the Maya / Faye interactions which hold a special place in our hearts as well <3)! Rest assured that you'll be seeing more of her in the other routes ;)
PS: We have been thinking about making those Coco stickers a reality! We'll keep you posted!
1. Which character did you like best?
Nico, definitely (though it is really hard to pick, his diva personality is just so cool and I love a man with great eyeliner technique).
2. Did you manage to unlock the post-credits scene?
Nope (cries)
3. Your favourite scene/ moment in the game?
Nico putting on Maya's eyeliner (screams)
4. Would you like to see more of any particular side character/ is there any other content you'd like us to add or improve on?
Well, I'd like to see more of Miles, but I suspect that'll happen when nico's route is released.
5. Anything else you'd like to ask or tell us!
would definitely sell my soul to Nico.
HELLO!!!!!! WE ARE EXTREMELY HAPPY THAT U ENJOYED THE GAME (especially a certain brat) but please keep your soul... his ego does not need to be fed anymore </3 we do love an artistic skilled at makeup man though. PS. if you're curious about the post credits scene, you can check out the walkthrough in the game description, or just read on to find out!!
**SPOILERS BELOW
for the daily affirmations, always choose the one that repeats every day!
wait I DIDN'T REALISE ALTAIR WASN'T A LOVE INTEREST I THOUGHT I WAS SMART SMH
HE COULD BE...IN ANOTHER WORLD... NAMELY https://fishattic.itch.io/stand-by-me-demo !!!
Nico is love, nico is life, nico is EVERYTHING
Robin is just *heart eyes*
oh yes and don't forget Vivian, the mood (affectionately) he's totally my type
And Maya is QUEEN YOU GO GIRL DON'T BE AFRAID TO LOVE YOUR HOBBIES!!
I'd die for Nico. js.
actuLLY scratch that I'd die for Vivian
conclusion, willingly yeet myself for both of them
THANK U SO MUCH WE LOVE THE DEDICATION!!!! WE ARE EXCITED FOR THEM TO (hopefully) YEET THEMSELVES INTO YOUR HEART SOON <3
hi!!! i really love this game and i love Nico so much! may i ask when is the estimated release date (if im not being rude?) TYSM :))
Hello! The game is projected to be released in the first half of 2022. Thank you so much for your interest!
[Contains some spoilers] Nico is definitely my favorite (just going with the flow of choices that felt right on my first tries, I ended up with a whole 42 affection points for him lol), but I really love Robin and Vivian too. I'm a huge fan of otome games, and this is absolutely the best one I've ever played. It's probably because it aligns with all of my personal tastes (I really really love the soft and cutesy aesthetics, and all of the love interests are also very much to my liking lol) as well as being personally relatable (I too love cute mascot characters, though I'm not nearly as devoted as Maya and Robin... I'm also someone who loves writing but is really insecure about it). I enjoyed the whole thing so very much!! As far as my favorite parts... I was swooning when Nico did Maya's makeup (as someone who doesn't know shit about makeup, having someone do my makeup really nicely is a dream). I also almost cried when Robin hugged Maya (I was cheering too! I loved the whole scene!), though his bleeped-out cursing immediately after made me laugh so hard I legitimately almost fell on the floor and had to catch my breath for a minute. I "aww"'d aloud so often during the whole game. I'm really curious about Altair, and I think it'd be fun if he showed up again sometime (to get some jealous love interest fanservice or as a cool friend or something... I think it'd be hilarious for him to get in a Battle of the Prettyboys versus Nico since they're both so gorgeous, and I'm sure that our darling Nico could rip him to shreds<3). I can't thank you enough for this game! I've had numerous awful little inconveniences piling up recently, so I was feeling pretty shitty earlier today, and worrying a lot about my birthday (it's few days but things aren't looking so good). I'm really so glad that I found this game and played it! It lifted my spirits so much. I actually burst into tears at the end of Robin's route (lucky me, I got the best end on my first try!) just because I felt so happy and de-stressed (I definitely needed a good cry). I feel so deeply fulfilled! Another detail I really liked was Maya's daily affirmations. It felt a little silly at first, but even if it is, it's also really nice too? I wanna start doing that now!!! I can't wait to play the other routes too (I feel like this is gonna be a huge comfort game for me) whenever they release. Thank you so much for this absolutely wonderful experience! I would also sell my soul for some Coco merch; he's the cutest!
Thank you so much for this immensely sweet and detailed comment- to say that it's made our entire Christmas and New Year would not be an understatement at all! We're beyond grateful for all the feedback and kind words, and we are so so so happy that you enjoyed the game!! It's always great to find fellow mascot fans (don't worry, we aren't on Maya and Robin's levels either lol) and we will... definitely look into the Coco merch...(after we finish the game...)...as we ourselves would love to own some too!!
**SPOILERS BELOW
Altair is actually a ~ guest character ~ from another game that our artist is working on which you can find here: https://fishattic.itch.io/stand-by-me-demo! This battle that you are suggesting does indeed sound intriguing though lol. Nico tries to be #savage and #vicious but he really does have his moments. We can't wait for you to see his route and hope with all our hearts that you'll enjoy it! It makes us really really glad to hear that people enjoyed certain scenes, or that they laughed at something- it's things like these that keep us going.
We're really happy that this game was able to comfort you or help you in some small way- we hope that we're not too late to wish you a happy birthday as well, and our wish for you is for the worries that you've been carrying around to be resolved. It's a fresh year and a fresh start, and we are so happy to have been a part of your journey in some small way. All the best for everything (hope those affirmations go well!) in life and in your writing should you choose to carry on with it! We (and the rest of the cast) will be here cheering you on! We believe in you and the stories that you want to tell, and would love to read them if you'd like to share them with us too :-)
bro this games so good. man all of the characters are so likeable, and you just want to play more of the game at all times. this is one of the first otome games ive ever played so im very impressed. the art is really nice as well! i also really like how they give multiple options for how you want to respond to others. it adds some personality to the usually naive and bland mc. honestly this game has made my day. i am now going to wait for a new route because i am desperate for more content. i definitely recommend this game for whenever you're bored or just want to feel all happy n shi. good luck with the rest of the game!
Bro we are beyond touched by ur comment...bro
Thank you so much for your kind words and feedback! We're so happy that our game was able to bring you some joy :'') We will do our best to bring you the rest of the routes as soon as possible!
this game was WAY too cute ( ´ ▽ ` ).｡ｏ♡ it's probably the only visual novel i can bring myself to finish lololol and it was super entertaining throughout. i love how it's straight to the point instead of giving a bunch of useless, boring dialogue before we actually get to the good part (btw the whole game was "the good part" so no complaints there). the art is adorable and i think the whole "texting" idea with all the coco stickers was really creative too! i also didn't really expect multiple endings for one character since this was made for a game jam and i'm guessing you didn't have that much time to make the whole thing, but i was pleasantly surprised either way. overall this is definitely a fun game to pass time with and i'm super excited for its future (especially vivian's route hehe) :D hoping to see more of miles too in nico's route!
(spoilers) if i were to be nitpicky though, i'd suggest giving subtle hints that maya was the one who outbid robin in that coco auction (maybe we have a short scene or conversation of her talking to faye about finally getting that limited edition plushie or something) or else that ending seems a bit random and "forced" in there just for comedic value, instead of actually being canon (?). some of the anatomy and perspectives also seem a bit off in some scenes (side profiles, the cg of the little girl at the start, the cg when we meet vivian in the mall, also the part right after robin hugs us and his sprite looks kinda blurry/low resolution) but it's understandable! i don't expect the artwork to be perfect and it's better than a LOT of other small visual novel games for sure (especially cause this was made in a relatively short period of time), but just something to be aware of in the future! it actually makes me feel kinda nostalgic and reminds me of old otome games i played when i was younger so it's not necessarily a bad thing. i could go into more detail but this comment is really long and i'm not here to give an art lesson lolol but either way the overall style and vibe of the entire game is super cute and i can't wait to go through new dialogue and endings next time! (≧◡≦)b
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this comment~ we really appreciate it and we're so happy you had fun with the game! We did our best to have as many endings as was realistically possible, so we hope you enjoyed going through them~
****SPOILERS BELOW
The extra scene that we added is meant to be a surprise for the viewers, but we didn't want it to be sort of a "if you don't see it you'll feel like something's missing" kind of thing, so it wasn't really linked to the rest of the game! We hope you still enjoyed it despite the relative suddenness of it :'')
Thank you also for your feedback on the art- we will do our best to improve in our next instalments!
I just started playing the game but I love it so much! The art style is so cute! I cannot wait for Vivian's route!
We hope you'll enjoy the rest of it as well! Thank you so much for your kind words :-)
