When Francis and Aiden are taking a break from the paper on "The Violet Sparrow", is Francis playing "What Remains of Edith Finch" or something else?(just for the sake of my curiosity :D)
Talented, Brilliant, Incredible, amazing, showstopping. I loved the atmosphere, the MC is so fresh and relatable, Everyone's cute, everyones's interesting, I had such a good time. Well written, just a fabulous experience. Excited to see more!
I was playing till like saturday, the "date" and seeing no new route option, thought u need to skip chatting with Rick, but that makes the game end ASAP xP
I’m not sure what’s happening and how you guys keep on getting the ‘bad’ ending… I’m pretty sure you just have to be nice to Rick to not get the bad ending.
ok so i am ONLY getting a bad end after the date and at this point i have tried EVERY combination of choices and STILL only get it. is there something i am missing?
Is there multiple routes or just one route it's kinda hard to tell since your kinda pushed to one at the beginning then it almost seems like later there should be?
hey, just curious, dunno if it's exclusive to android or anything
every update creates a new app, not updates the currently available app (layman's terms is every time I "update" the vn I get two apps instead, one updated version and one past version)
is this intentional? and if so (or not), can you at least make a chapter select thingy? it's kinda exhausting sitting thru the past stuff skipping up to the updated stuff
Anyway, great stuff. Different from other VNs I've seen, but it's good. Relatable and the mc doesn't go on a long tangent on how the light shines or whatever like a poet so it's nice.
It might be intentional because the file name of the game is different each update, Renpy is kinda annoying sometimes with updating games so it's completely understandable.
You can manually transfer the saves from one update to another pretty easily anyways.
I've played this game twice and at this point, I thought it was a good time to share my thoughts on it.
I'll expand a bit more from the given description just so people can get a better idea of what "Blossom City" (BC) is.
It is a kinetic/linear slice-of-life VN. Instead of being the lovey-dovey mushy slice-of-life that most romance-themed furry VNs go for, BC's more akin to a depressive perspective of life, given that the MC is a somewhat depressed young adult. It's not like the "I'm always sad" depressive, but rather like being stuck in a rut in life, comfortable but not happy; unwilling to budge from the comfort due to a lack of will and the means to do so.
The story shows the MC's thoughts, feelings, mindset, and emotions through his life situation and what he is experiencing throughout the story, which is surprisingly good for his character development even if it is simple.
BC's story, in combination with its art and original soundtrack; creates this rustic feeling of a comforting and relatable slice-of-life yet is merely, to quote the story itself; "a facade of comfort crumbling away, betrayed by years of poor treatment."
I feel people will enjoy it. Just don't go in expecting something that plays to what people consider normal from dating sims and furry VNs. Try it, and see if the story captivates you. You can expect pretty good art and soundtracks though!
As of the time of writing this, the build should take about 2 to 2.5 hours to complete if you go at its auto-forward speed.
hi, I'm new to the game, and I just want to say that I'm loving it so far
the characters are interesting, the writing is making me want to read more an the pacing is wonderful and intriguing, I'd love to see more of it in the future!
that being said, rest and personal health comes first, so rest when needed, no rush, Loved the game! -Ace Ayasaki
Man this VN hits differently. From the dialogue to the ost, the only way i can describe this is as an experience, and an amazing one at that! Love the story, keep up the good work

No, you're not alone there. I straight up avoided it without even knowing it existed.
there's bad ending already?
yeah hahaha sort of
*SPOILER*

Does Francis have a route yet?
I’m not sure what’s happening and how you guys keep on getting the ‘bad’ ending… I’m pretty sure you just have to be nice to Rick to not get the bad ending.
ok so i am ONLY getting a bad end after the date and at this point i have tried EVERY combination of choices and STILL only get it. is there something i am missing?
Try going back to chapter one and making more positive choices
i can only do chapter 1 cuz that is all it will let me do
Is there multiple routes or just one route it's kinda hard to tell since your kinda pushed to one at the beginning then it almost seems like later there should be?
I am enjoying this VN (chapter 5 not much) and look forward to future updates!
