ik this probably a bad take but I love the sabotage ending like its so funny like Jodeci doesn't want Danny to reconnect with his friend because he don't not ship it 🥺 like its immature and that's what makes it funny xD and then he Gaslight Danny into being the a hole when Danny was trying to apologize. Anyways make sure to update me when my boy Jodeci gets his love story until then I will be shipping him with my totally not self oc who likes GL more and they will be arguing all the time about what ships are better :3
i thought this would be one of those "oh im not the main character but i end up dating one of them anyways heehee!" plotlines but, coming from a gay man, ...this is so cringe wth...mid art, mid VA, story (if you could even call it that lol) is actually atrocious...like seriously whats the deal with "omg two boys who seemingly have zero chemistry other than the fact they can recognize each others faces like everyone else on the planet can do omgomg!! they should 100% date and be thrown in sexually implicit scenarios solely because theyre both boys!!" like youre not even trying to hide this weird fetish lmao...if anyone over the age of 10 proudly calls themselves a fujo i already know you got 0 friends, 0 social life, and absolutely 0 father...
even aside from all the weird shit the voice acting it straight up awful...the teacher was soo agonizingly slow and that ginger twink kid was so hard to listen to cuz his voice was so overly squeaky and annoying..and the lines would just randomly cut in the middle of dialogue for some reason??? like someone would be taking normally but a random syllable wouldnt be audible but the line just continues like nothing happened??? also sometimes a consistently voiced character would just..not..say their line??? i dont think danny said mostly anything during the last bit for some reason. the game isnt visually appealing either honestly, every character has one extremely boring and undynamic pose for the whole game. the art is so bland its hard to even tell the characters ages, the girl in her 40s looks younger than the guy in his 20s...even the characters with interesting designs look boring cuz of the uniform too... like madalena's white hair and red eyes would make for a genuinely pleasant character design if she didnt get stuffed in a basic white button up...plain black bow tie... orange jacket with a totally different color than her eyes...just the most basic thing that couldve possibly been cooked up for her, even a more red undertone for the jacket wouldve done wonders. i get its a uniform but theres so many cooler options that couldve been picked out to give some uniqueness to the characters. danny seems to have gotten the best treatment in this regard since his hair style is definitely his own and not too basic but its also not some flashy color which makes him look more real to the games universe, though him being a more "delinquent" type of character with a perfectly clean uniform and perfectly straight and set tie all week while peter seems like the opposite but with a messed up shirt seems like..an interesting choice.....
overall, this game kinda sucks in terms of plot, sorta seems like it was written by a straight girl first discovering what a gay person is and trying wayyyyyyyy too hard to seem supportive so it just comes off fetish-y, and doesnt help itself with the voice acting and art...which is kinda important considering this is a VISUAL novel and you have to stare at it the whole game
Fujoshis are cringe, and their creations are a idealization of gay couples. You can see this with the uke an seme stereotype (I personally don't like it).
I think the quality isn't really good but is an indie free product so...
(I'm from Spain, sorry if there are misspellings(?)
I like this game so much! Love the fact that we're being a side character in this game. Just like me shipping every guys with guys or girl with girl etc. I felt like I really want to make a fanart of Danny seriously haahaah. I'll send them here if I decides to make it😂
When i saw the reason Peter didnt like Danny it made me start thinking like i didnt feel it was that bad till he said like "He told me to go.." yk..? Someone had said that to me and what are the ODDS of his name being DANIEL but hes called DANNY ITS CRAZY AHA..
Sorry to hear you also had a bad experience, I believe it's more common than people realise. I hope that like Peter, you were able to move on and have good supportive friends like Jodeci :)
We all need a Jodeci in our lives, and if you don't have one, be the Jodeci for another people.
Thanks for playing 'Im a side character', I appreciate it.
What a fun concept! Big fan of changing up the perspective in a story I've experienced a couple of times, it's very creative. I appreciate the light simple but entertaining tone of this.
I do too! I appreciate that there are people with the same sentiment who have the tools to realize stories like that. Best of luck on any future endeavors with this kind of theme, if you plan on any :D
My bi heart is sad not to have a romance but to be honest I don't mind our routes only having friendship. I kinda like some good old platonic bromance.

I just want to make it clear that this is not real. :)
it is AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Thank you!!
This was such a cute little game, i loved all the ending
Thank you!
cant believe those two missed the shrek reference
They're not as cool as you and Jodeci. ;)
Peter! Danny! Donkey!
loved this game, super cute! Jodeci is so relatable
Thanks maxannes!
Happy to see you get the reference. Haha.
Jodeci needs a lover frf
id love for there to be a game where we could have love interests :,(
What about a game where you ARE the love interest? :D
This game is a spin off of my other game:
I'm a love interest in my childhood friend's reverse harem
Not me waiting for a game where he gets a love interest :')
Hopefully one day I will finish Jodeci's story.
Thank you lofi mushroom
No problem your doing great keep up the amazing work :)

Im not reading all that
you don't like it well get this OTHER PEOPLE DO

as a gay man i think youre taking this light game a bit too seriously bro
thank you for this review you literally saved me the time and effort of downloading it
Damn now I want to see Jodeci be happy after all that hard work helping his friend's love story progress. TuT
This was a fun and cute game though! I Love Jodeci being a fudanshi, as a fujoshi, he and I would get along shipping everyone. XD
Thanks for the kind words!
He just a good person that loves love, and wants to see his friends happy XD like I'm sure you are too.
I hope to write more about Jodeci in the future. He definitely deserves to be happy.
I like this game so much! Love the fact that we're being a side character in this game. Just like me shipping every guys with guys or girl with girl etc. I felt like I really want to make a fanart of Danny seriously haahaah. I'll send them here if I decides to make it😂
Thank you Kaze!
I'm glad you enjoyed the game, sometimes life is better as a side character, haha. If you do draw art of Danny I would love to see it!
Hi! At first I want to draw Danny, but then I felt like why not draw Peter first because he seems difficult to draw (his hairstyle is complicated😂)
So, here's Peter fanart by me 😁
here's the prove just in case someone accused me of stealing someone's art😅
OMG this is amazing!!! Thank you so much!
I love his shocked face, lol. and the 'pocky'!!!
This has honestly made my day (my week even), I am so thankful. Would you be fine with me sharing this on my discord and twitter?
Sure, no problem. But really? 😳 That is a huge honor for me
p/s: yess the "pocky" 🤣
It's an honor for me! Receiving fanart from players is such a big honor, and shows how much you enjoyed the game. Thank you!
Here's the twitter post: Twitter post
Its probably just me but, Danny is hot.
Not just you, can confirm, his character design is hot XD
XD (thx for replying!)
Thank you for making it sm easier not to get romanically attached to a character
DOES THE MC HAVE A LOVE STORY???
Only in my dreams. LOLs. I have ideas for sequels but everything is on hold at the moment due to personal reasons.
I want to finish the "I'm a love interest" universe that Jodeci and Peter are part of, so hopefully in the future I can work on the sequels.
Alrrrr!!!
Is this what it's like to be a dude version of a fujoshi? This is what goes on in their heads?
Being a queer twink, i need some sort of defense mechanism i swear.
Kinda what goes on <//3
When i saw the reason Peter didnt like Danny it made me start thinking like i didnt feel it was that bad till he said like "He told me to go.." yk..? Someone had said that to me and what are the ODDS of his name being DANIEL but hes called DANNY ITS CRAZY AHA..
yeah..ion talk to Danny no more.
This game was a nice one. Nice and short :)
Hi Kosuna!
I'm glad you enjoyed the game.
Sorry to hear you also had a bad experience, I believe it's more common than people realise. I hope that like Peter, you were able to move on and have good supportive friends like Jodeci :)
We all need a Jodeci in our lives, and if you don't have one, be the Jodeci for another people.

Red
Uhm it won’t let me past the “Im Jodeci” part I tried changing the name to and it didn’t work… it only lets me go back and stuff like that
You should be able to continue by either left clicking the mouse or pressing enter on the keyboard.
what if your playing on a phone?
I'm surprised you can even get it work on your phone... It's not supposed to do that. Lol.
I would suggest playing later on a desktop or laptop when you can. The game isnt programmed for phone or tablet.
ok thanks:)
the most common phrase in here?
#ishipit
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
This game is about being the lovemaker at your school lol jk
What a fun concept! Big fan of changing up the perspective in a story I've experienced a couple of times, it's very creative. I appreciate the light simple but entertaining tone of this.
thank you lizuia!
I just wanna see more background and side characters get their stories told :)
I do too! I appreciate that there are people with the same sentiment who have the tools to realize stories like that. Best of luck on any future endeavors with this kind of theme, if you plan on any :D
My bi heart is sad not to have a romance but to be honest I don't mind our routes only having friendship. I kinda like some good old platonic bromance.
Good old platonic bromance needs more representation I reckon. Haha.
But thank you so much for playing and leaving a comment!
