KLEIN v.0.1
LOG 02 RELEASE
LOG 02 UPDATE IS LIVE !
i'll follow up with the updated content warning list and the endings guide shortly ^^
THIS UPDATE'S HIGHLIGHTS . . .
STORY PROGRESSION the story will progress based on which route you stayed in previously. there are 3 portions of this update, narrative-wise:
- Klein's route (2 branching paths) ~1-hour playtime
- Yael's route (linear with added player choices) ~1-hour playtime
- General route (shared events and plot progression) ~20 minutes playtime
in the previous update, Klein's route was significantly shorter than Yael's, but this time it's a lot more balanced.
THIS UPDATE INCLUDES:
- Al's route [prologue] :
al enjoyers, you might want to read this: if you're seeking to gain AP ( affection points ) for him (which will matter in the next update ), stick with Yael's route! just be sure not to gain too many affection points with him LOL—keep him in da friend zone...
- 9+ new CGs (not including variations)
- new outfits for Klein (you get to choose his style!)
- ethan screentime LOL
get ready for emotional damage
- improved UI for smoother navigation.
- bug fixes for continuity errors in Yael's route and dialogue flow in Klein's.
- the narration throughout the entire narrative has been updated for consistent use of present tense.
OTHER NOTES
you may experience error from playing with older builds. i'm sorry for the inconvenience in case of save files being reset/loss. older builds are not likely to be compatible with this version because there are significant changes made T T
you might want to explore the demo logs because i've slipped in a handful of new CGs in some routes ( if you're a new player, please ignore this lol )
any kind of feedback would be very welcomed. you can share your thoughts here or through this this feedback form as per usual. i apologize in advance for any errors you might come across, please be sure to notify me about it and i'll be very happy to assist / get to it immediately!
thank you for everyone's patience and support. i appreciate it beyond words can express
i hope this update is fun and worth the wait, and i'm so excited to hear everyone's thoughts on it!

Ohhh! Nevermind, I actually figured it out, hehe! :D I kinda forgot about the amusment park option... I'm surprised on how much I missed now, lol.
Thank you for the update!

Cooooolo coolo~
I was waiting for this update muwahahahahaah!!
i love al SO MUCH he's so sweet i already can't wait to see more of him !! this update was so awesome
and we all cheered wooooooooooo thanks for updating <33
Why is this game exactly the same as Pocket Lover? same plot.. and everything.. did you receive the same inspiration from a show or something? either that, but there is no actual possibility; you've never heard of their game, and theirs came out first too. please give some clarification... they deserve credit at least.
go touch the grass
this is kinda serious bro
i get your concern about the similarities. it’s frustrating to think someone might’ve copied a game you love, especially when the creator worked so hard on it. but Bingzi already said six months ago that Himeiro denied knowing about Pocket Lover, and they seemed fine leaving it at that.
it’s okay to point out similarities, but the tone you’re using here feels pretty accusatory, and that’s not really helpful when you want to have a conversation. Bingzi’s a smaller creator, sure, but they still have a voice, and if they wanted to push this, they probably would’ve by now.
now, maybe if another creator was clearly upset or bothered by a similar situation, it’d make sense to bring it up, but Bingzi doesn’t seem to want to pursue this. so at this point, it might be best to respect their decision and move on. Or at the very least, talk to Bingzi and see if you can get their actual opinion. i’m sure they appreciate your passion for the games, but sometimes it’s best to let things rest.
You're sweet<3 Ty for your comment, and I understand what you mean. The thing is, this has been bothering me for some time... if Bingzi doesn't want to pursue this, then let it be, but don't you agree? The similarities are much too obvious; they didn't even try to hide it, and it's so mean to steal an entire plot from a smaller creator and paint it as your own, denying ever knowing about it, then even getting away with it.
Don't get me wrong though, I think Himeiro's art and codding are incredible, and they can for sure make a game of their own without going through such lengths, but they could have mentoned they were 'inspired' and credited Bingzi at the very least. She is a very amazing creator, and that game 'pocket lover' was the very first game she released, and I hate to see it stolen.
I will be taking a step away from this as to respect Bingzi's decision, but I do hope Himero comes out on their own.
Thank you though, I appreciate your reply<3 Have a nice day.
If it is the case, that Himiero did in fact steal the entire plot and get away with it, you're right. It's not okay and I would be super bothered and compelled to say something as well. But I also know this is not my battle and I dont want to interfere with another creators plan if they have one. Since Bingzi left it at the comment,I figured they didn't want anyone else to talk about it. I suggest if you see another creator asking for help because someone stole their content, then go full throttle since its at the creators request. No one should be mean to you or give you hateful comments when all you want to do is defend a creator you love. I also love Bingzi and I also love Himeiro but this is between them now. You are only doing what you think is right so don't let others put you down with hateful words, but listen to constructive words to help everyone :) it’s clear you care a lot about supporting creators, and you have a good heart for wanting to stand up for them. have a beautiful day for a kind soul like yours 💖
hi there and i totally get your concerns! i understand where you are coming from, and while i acknowledge the similarities it shared with bingzi's game, i can also confidently say that my game is progressing with its own ideas, narrative, and story direction, which i think sets it apart; and i do hope more people can see it especially as more episodes come out.
this has been discussed before with me and bingzi in DMs like a commenter said in this thread and i also have made a public post about this as well recently with all that needs to be said from my end. you can read it here
i hope this helps answers your questions and/or worries, and i wish for her decision to be respected regarding this as well!
thank you for taking the time to comment 💖
Yay, I didn't expect this to come out. I'm excited to play this game, but I don't have time and I'm busy 😭
THANK YOUFOR UPDATING I LOVE YOU HIMEIRO
i need a guide TT i keep getting the same bad end where i die... qwq great game nonetheless!
edit: i apparently just had to skip work...lol
i'm so sorry to know that T T i will be sharing a thorough guide for the game soon!
or you can also reach out to me on SNS and i will be able to help!
Er for this ver. I can't use joiplay on this anymore. What happened?
Same for me. I'm using Winlator version 5.0. If you get the emulator, use the graphics driver LLVMpipe, and the DX Wrapper CNC DDraw. Oh, and you'll need over 2 gigabytes of space to install it.
hi there! i'm so sorry, i didn't work on this game with Joipllay in mind :') i'm afraid i can't help assist you with this problem!
Yay it's updated! Thank you devs!XD
