----------------------------
This is a game inspired from the Mod Monika After Story and works pretty much the same. If you had had experience playing it, this game might interest you!
(This is not a mod, it's a standalone game. Don't worry about having to download anything else)

Notice:
There is not a lot of feature or topics for now! But I'm planning to update this game whenever I have a chance to.
The minisprites and cutscenes's hair styles and outfits does not match with the design you chose (for now!) I just don't wanna go on the drawing board that much. If this game gets recognition then I will update those.

Was wondering if the random events repeat themselves? Got the Real Tantei? one (that's one of the random greetings, right?) and was wondering if it would pop up again, since I'd like seeing how both options play out (I'm a bit of a completionist).
Also, love the game! :)
I just reached affection lv 100 with him today, yay!! I love how relaxing and relatively low-effort this game is since I don't have a ton of spare time every day, I enjoy checking in on him once a day to check for new dialogue or help water his plant, etc. Cooking with him is always fun too, I was pleasantly surprised when he asked me to interact for the first time lol. Earlier today I was super confused because I thought I closed the game before taking a "break," but then when I came back the game was still open and my affection level dipped below 100 again...hmmm...maybe I just forgot to close it and did something by accident to make the affection go down?! No idea what happened but I'm just trying not to get any of the endings and ruin things with him, although I AM tempted to mess with him sometimes like keep watering the plant to see what happens lol. But genuinely enjoying these small daily interactions with a virtual cutie pie. Thank you for making this! <3
Only started this one andd seemed really interesting, I mean mostly because it was about Tantei, but this type of simulation game like those Tamagotchi oldies were always fun.
but it seemed like I encountered a problem early on; I can't type in month name when he asked to for the birthday,
can only enter empty and did successfully insert the date but then got this error.
also, umm is this one meant to not have save-load function? scared me bad when i didn't find it..
please don't save in this game, this is an auto-save game!!
and the month is supposed to be in numberics, sorry for not making that clear ^^
okay, that made sense and a bit brain fart moment of me, thank you for the clarifications!
oh wait, i think i found legit bug or something, it's this topic through cooking to ask about recipes.. and i can't ignore this one
And also, this uh 'missing outfit arm' on some points
HAVSJAV i already know about the cooking recipies one, i was just a little lazy to add content for it so i left it there, but i'll try to fix it as soon as possible, including the missing arm...
since this is a really-kinda-old game, my code is pretty messy so i have to dig through a lot to find it again!
ah alright it's okay, take your time! I can see potential here, it's already going well so far aside from.. running out of topics for the moment to increase his affection level, though I'll let it stew and kept on my phone for now, until i reach one of the ends.
"I don't know how to code in pronouns yet, but it's mostly never mentioned in the game either."
Cool? Will the player be referred to with they/them? She/her? He/him? Or something else?
gender isn't mentioned in the game! since this game is a player pov, tantei only talks to you and there are no other characters to even refer to you to even use your pronouns ^^
i can fix him i swear.
