Doki Doki Literature Club Fangame

That's pretty in-depth review, thank you for your thoughts!

That's encouraging to hear, thanks!

I would up my patreon level to support a full kip art only version. ;) I know it's not in the spirit of the collaboration, but your art is just on another level IMHO. Monika looks fantastic here, great job!

Cross-posting my review from Feabie ~ The Good ~ - The music is the best thing about this game. PLAY THIS GAME WITH HEADPHONES - Surprisingly good voice acting - The Debu Debu Club minigame is way more fun than it has any right being - It's free! ~ The Okay ~ - This game is DARK. Don't play with your pants down, it's not really that kind of game - The art is mostly good quality. Getting Kipteitei on board for the main character was a smart move. - Flaws aside, this is surprisingly high-effort ~ The Bad ~ - Writing feels hamfisted at points. Monika is a little ~too~ into you, which makes her feel flat. - Lack of direction. Game doesn't know if it wants to be a complex story, or smut. - There's a few areas (especially one point midgame) where the art quality drops ~ Final Thoughts ~ - This is probably the most interesting thing I've seen the feedist community spit out. - The team who made this has a lot of potential, with some experience and sense of direction they could carve out a deep niche for themselves - I'd download and run it for kicks if nothing else. It's a weird-ass experience.

I really enjoyed your involvement in the game. Monika is extra cute at the end, especially her facial features. Just played it once and got the (I think) good ending. Will play to see your Monika again :3

It's meant to be the immobile Monika drawings that appear at the very beginning of the game, however for some reason their flags don't trigger. Some people have gotten around this by using the password from the "Sayori Red" demo for the game.

I love your games but it's not opening on my Mac Computer this time and I'm not sure what is the issue.

I reeeeallly loved this game but I gotta know, how do you unlock the first gallery picture for Monika? I think I've completed both endings and I have every other gallery picture unlocked but monikas first one is just a giant question mark for me.

this game has so much easter eggs :D

The red version was just a demo I believe, the blue version is the full game

What is this about a certain red edition?

I cant get it to download. Everytime I try and install, it'll reload the page and act as if the "Download Anyways" button is just a refresh button. I am confuzzled

Do you have Windows or Mac? If Windows, download WinZip for the free trial version. WinZip should allow you to open the .rar file and extract it.

how do you open it? what program do i need?

Simon Daigneault

Yes! I will do it but you'll have to wait a little bit so I can compile them to some kind of reasonable post.

It was pretty cool to see artists collaborate, though the jarring difference in sizes/styles made part of it less enjoyable. A lot of the fun was in seeing Monika drawn in your style throughout, which ties it all together. The voice actress was also really good. You mentioned considering posting the sprites once the game was finished - would you still be able to do that?

Starting from the negative stuff - game is a bit rough around the edges, writing got a bit convoluted in the middle, and I am not a big fan of those choices that aren't really choices. Some times it got confusing because you chose one option and characters acted like you chose another option. That's all that comes to my mind. Artwise - it's fantastic, it was wonderful to see such a huge collaboration of artists big and small, both my long time favorites and people I didn't even knew existed. The resolve seriously put huge smile on my face, I really enjoyed the fact that that this time we could see an ending happy for everyone involved - Even if that would hardly work canonically (Yeah nice poindexter because the rest of the game works perfectly canonically (Oh god I wish)) And this silly minigame with stuffing girls was weirdly amusing. Funny thing is, for some reason I still enjoyed the beginning lovely-dovely scenes with Monika the most. Something about that warmth and fuzziness, and softness. Mostly softness. Your part turned out amazing, Kip, that goes without saying. I'm a huge sucker for weight gain, I'll tell you that, and if I were to partake in this strange November challenge thingy I'd fail just from smelling Monika's sprites and CGs you've made. Okay that wasn't well put. But you get the idea. You really did her character justice. So, congratulations to everyone involved, in my opinion it was worth the weight.

*finishes game* not bad, a bit rushed in some spots (though that's a personal preference) but overall I had fun. Makes me want to make my on visual novel at some point. Good job :3

Also I’m excited to play this!

Got an email notice for nlb 175? But it leads to a 404 and it’s not in your posts?

Froppy

Lol what? That's interesting

Kipteitei

This made my winrar get stuck in russian for whatever reason.

Welp, I know what I'm doing when I get home.
