A short game about games.

I like the story, but the game keeps ending abruptly. My first run through, I varied my answers and only got so far. The next try I selected all negative answers and got a little farther, but again, the game just ended. I'd like to know if there is more to see at the end, or if that is just how it is meant to play out.

I figured the game was "over" when the point was made, so I never thought of it being longer. I have also experienced slightly longer playthroughs, but I doubt it can (read: wants to) unfold further than the main point.

I would love to see this title expand, either into some kind of series or have spin off games featuring related characters. It may be asking for a lot, but a much bigger and ambitious title like this would be greatly appreciated. The whole visual novel genre is something relatively new to me, but games such as this are luring me in to try more and more. It'd be nice to see the response options open up a little bit too. Like choices made in the game would have a little more differential effects on the plot, instead of getting a smaller, vague changes to in dialogue.

Genuinely in love with the character design, which helps shave a little bit of the "mundane, day-to-day work, based antics" feel from the game's story and setting. Pretty sure I'd pay a lot more attention at my own job if the staff were replaced by a bunch of anthropomorphs.
