Emmie, a skinny corgi, spends her days trying to find her next meal. Living out of her car with her chicken Henni and running from town to town catfishing guys with the face of a model online to get free food. While it has worked so far, with hiccups here and there, she wants something better. Will she find it here, or is she doomed to fooling strangers forever due to her insecurity and inability to land a real job, and risking her sanity and well being while doing it?

Ayy this was great! Love to see what ya have in store for chapter 2, will be following this peice of work...BISEXUALLY
Sheesh... Once again I have not what I wanted but what I still like. And the ending... kinda creeping. Summering this, the car content warnings, I have some bad theories about Emmie...
Waiting for chapter 2.

Good job for this vn! The story is nice, and the art is gorgeous. Adam is a sweet round woof 🥺💕 Excited for chapter 2!
Waaah thank you again <3 You are very kind 🥺
I really enjoyed chapter one. Such cute characters! I left the game really wanting to see more of the main characters so that's always a good thing.
thank you for saying so! <3
I'm halfway through the outline for the second chapter, so I'm really happy to hear that you guys like them! aaa
Hey I just finished the demo, such a heavy story already and Adam is an absolute muffin. I saw that you are seeking to replace some of the music from Pixabay, are you open to music contributions from fans?
Let's say hypothetically that I made something directly inspired by your game and I'd love to offer it to the soundtrack free of charge, are you open to that sort of thing?
We already talked, but I feel weird leaving this comment unresponded to. Hiiiii
Lol I understand, also hello again!
(great visual novel btw)
You had no right to be both that sweet and cute and then throw mystery and intrigue in at the end like that. It's too powerful.
It's a threat to all viewers to come back to future chapters to make sure I don't fumble the story LOL
kinda sad that we need to have a tag saying "no AI" at this point with how mainstream it became
I agree that it's frustrating. GenAI is getting pretty hard to distinguish, too.
So, may as well be clear
Edited because I'm burned out and words are hard
Gen AI sucks major ass
I dont condone or like genAI :/ its hard for people to tell is all i meant
Adam is truly charismatic, and the tail-wagging animation is just so adorable! I can't wait to see more storylines involving Adam! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
Im dying to get more work done on the next chapter! Adam is a main fixture so he will be back!
I love it
