The game is really great!! :) The dialogues and the way the story is told are really good!
The characters are really cool too! I think it was easy to "feel" for them (I'm sorry its weirdly worded but I'm not great at english, I'm french lmao), Leo seem very sweet and he reminded me one of my old friend ((light spoilers?)the way he always joke and isn't being taken seriously because of it) and it was easy to relate to Iris because of some experiences/relationships I had before soo...
Yeah I don't know where I'm going with this but the thing to remember from my comment is that the game is great!!
Yay thank you for playing!! I'm so glad you liked the game and found the characters relatable :)
