An annoying but not wholly unrealistic depiction of cis gay male life and socialization in the early-mid 2000’s. By that I mean, lesbians and women in general are made the laughing stock. Idk, at least everyone uses condoms in this game.
really good visual novel for gay men, not great for anyone else though

This visual novel really feels like a passion project made by a single person, and a little rough around the ages because of it.
Very similar storyline to Coming Out On Top (It's also about a recently out college student). But it takes a more realistic everyday approach.
The story is so repetitive that it might be so on purpose to simulate a daily routine: I ended up dating Dan, and the entire romance consisted of making love in either of 2 places, going to eat pizza at the restaurant, or watching something on TV/stage, with very little character or relationship development going on.
The characters are sort of divided into 3 groups: the jocks, the nerds, and the gays, with some boring storylines going on in each and some intertwining with other groups. But same as the romance, everything moved painfully slow. The game just feels pointlessly long.
I don't like the art style much. Adam the roommate is basically the main guy and his face looks particularly awful.
The writing is not terrible and I'd still recommend it for people that have already played and liked similar games, if they have nothing else to do.
The sequel is worth $20 so I won't be playing that anytime soon.
