Cool little vn about (extreme) social anxiety, the character designs grabbed my attention and some parts definitely felt relatable. I especially liked the way the awkward experience of talking to a stranger was simulated in visual novel format, like the way the voices constantly derail you, the stranger not hearing you, the cashier interrupting you if your timer runs out...
Great work!
