Hey guys! Are you okay? Is the project still continuing? Please don't tell me you're discontinuing the project! The demo was beautiful and I'm so looking forward to the final product, even though Free! anime had ended.... Hang in there!

Well, after the demo we haven't managed to produce anything... We had lots of plan changes and member changes which were really challenging. I think the year 2014 was very demanding for all of us, so we have kept the low profile with the game.

Hopefully we can kick this project back to its tracks next year! I'm personally looking forward for finishing this game. The challenge with such a big project with people all around the world is how to manage and supervise everything. 

Thank you for your support! We will try to do our best with this game.

any updates? c: just a suggestion, it'd be nice to see lil sneak peeks here and there as you guys work on the project

Well, this project has slowed down a lot. We don't have any material to share with you right now. I personally hope we can keep this project up - we haven't advanced at all within a year...

Hi! I was wondering if you could tell me how far along the process you are! Thank you to everyone who is working so hard on this project!

We are very far behind from the original idea, as the setbacks have slowed everything down and caused major trouble for us. Nikki and Niuniente are doing their best to handle the whole team, but unfortunately they can’t work 24/7 with the game problems.

So far we have gotten all the needed team members so we will slowly start working with the game. But there’s still things we need to figure out.

The most challenging thing is that we all are scattered around the world and discussing takes time.

since nagisa uses nicknames for everyone, would mizu-chan be something he would call the protag? or in the app should i just leave it as mizuki-chan since the name can be edited by the player?

Nagisa will call protagonist as NAME-chan, depending on the name the player has given her.

Hi Hi I was just wondering this since Miinty is doing the art for both Nagisa & Nitori; are they going to have the same art style/sprites?? And is Mizuki going to be brunette in every route? Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions : D

We recycle as many sprites as often as possible to ease the workload. Mizuki’s hair colour will stay the same in every route :3 Artists draw with the style most natural to them.

We’re VERY late behind the schedule, thus the long, long silence. I hope we can get back to the track and work soon…

Hello there!~ Thank you so much for your hard work! I'm really looking forward to how it will all turn out! Anyways I just wanted to notify you, in case it has gone unoticed (If it hasn't then sorry please ignore this ask orz) that your bottom links that include the FAQ and creators, etc. are cut off after downloads. I can't seem to find the 'messages from mizuki'. I'm not sure if it's only me, but i had to get the link from somewhere else. Thanks again for all your hard work!

Depending of your screen the layout in our front page looks different. If you have problems viewing the links, use crtl and -, which zooms out the page. Use ctrl and + to zoom back.

I know this probably way down the road for you guys, but when the game is released, could you rate each path on its NSFW-ness (if you get what I mean)? I honestly don't mind a little NSFW, but it got really bad, I wouldn't enjoy it. If you don't, that's fine, :D, I'll just play SFW!

We're still in the middle of the work, so how nsfw the nswf route will be is still a question mark, but like stated before we will view sex as a natural thing to occur in the game. Nsfw will be rather nsfw then, depending the personality of the dating option and Mizuki and their age. It's rather rare for 17-18 year old teenagers to engage in their first dating experience into hard core fetish porn!So don't worry, we don't plan to have any porn without plot just for the sake of the porn itself, nor any hard core things. Sex scenes in our game are only the natural next step in the loving relationship, if the player has selected nsfw route.

Another thing with the ratings is that we all live in the different countries, where nsfw things are rated differently. We will keep you all updated about this matter as we progress with the game :3
