The Future You've Been Dreaming Of Reviews

This game looks fun but it is annoying. To be fair, the idea is fun and it is probably really fun if you can play it on the original platform because it is not made for pc. If you understand Japanese, you are probably getting a lot more information during gameplay. You play as a ghost, for the girl you're god. You helping her finding a job by giving her tasks like study, train and pick up notes. Inbetween scenes you get tutorials which are not giving a lot of information to what you're able to do. Since you're "growing" as her guide and getting a better bond with the girl, you should be able to do more and more things to and for her. I have "grown" three times. The first ability was unclear to me and I have not figured it out yet. The second ability was to move her, which means that you can put thoughts in her head to make dance moves or poses. The third ability should be to "touch" her and I am not sure on what the game expects you to do. I have not been able to touch her directly anywhere. Tried shoulders, head, body, legs, feet and nothing works. If you want to give a task, your cursor is changing so you know you can interact with the object. On her, the cursor doen't do that. It does trigger tasks behind her. So the tutorials are vague at its best. I said earlier that if you understand Japanese you would get more information during gameplay. Since the girl is talking during her tasks you get sometimes subtitles. But if she keeps on talking without subtitles it makes me think that there is more information that could be useful. Since one of the tips of the game is to work on her wishes. She once began to sing and the subtitles said "god listen to me" and then she kept on singing but there were no subs. The game does not respond well to keyboard and mouse. I play it with a controller, which works fine. The shortage of indicators for interactions with the girl is, in my opinion, faulty programming. The game does not play in full screen. It stays in a fullscreen window with topbar and taskbar visible. There is no option to turn on fullscreen or any other video/display related options. So all in all I think this game is not worth the buy unless they finetune the game to be more suitable to pc with better subs and gameplay. I'm considering to get a refund for this game. EDIT: I requested a refund, game is not suitable for pc gaming.

I don't recommend this game AT ALL! Part of me hoped they would fix and work to improve the game after taking $18.00, but the game isn't even really a game at all. It's fast scenes with the girl, limited mobility for the player to even move or look around LET ALONE even click things, and just down right unplayable. After waiting for months in hope of a fix, there has been no attempt. Was denied a refund, so SAVE YOUR MONEY! The creator seems to have no intention of fixing the game (if you can even call it that) : /

This game has many problems, technical and mechanically. For one, the game is locked at 30fps. There is no option to change it, in fact there is absolutely zero graphics options at all. The game runs in window mode, I assume is 1080, and to fullscreen it you have to Alt+Enter. It's not a looker, jagged edges everywhere, jerky controls, no shadows. The animations are alright but the main character (Sachi) moves terribly slow (We'll get to why that matters later). The game itself is a life sim, much akin to Princess Maker games of old. The issue with this one is it's extremely simplified, so much so that I'd be hesitant to call it a 'sim' at all. There are quite a few endings that are all determined by her stats at the end of the 10th day with one bad ending and one neutral ending. The neutral ending is the all around general ending if you didn't put her stats in a narrow window of points and you'll probably see it a lot. With Princess Maker you had a specific number of actions for the week, in this game though you have a time limit that counts down the moment your intervention begins for the day, which is pretty terrible on it's own but there's more. Not only are you timed, but you also need to pick up 'pages' to even have the ability to get endings, while it is possible to pick up every page and open every ending in a playthrough, you're going to have nearly no time to actually increase her stats because her movement is so extremely slow. She walks to an object, stands there a second, interacts with said object, removes herself from object, stands there a second THEN moves on to the next task. Considering the time limit forcing you to feel rushed, she is not rushed at all. Thankfully her moving to an interaction tallies the stat increase immediately. The story is pretty good though, Sachi is an endearing character and her struggles are going to be relatable to nearly everyone that has been college age, but the mechanics themselves prevent you from feeling anything for the character and her dilemma after your first playthrough when the game devolves into a numbers game with no emotional connection. The objects she can use to increase her stats are many, and more unlock as days progress (Under the assumption she buys them and brings them home, like manga books and candy) and nearly all of the objects do a solid increase a stat and more often than not in multiple stats. There are very few objects that actually decrease a stat, and those usually give a hefty increase in something else. You might be thinking, "That's a good thing!" but then you get to the ending requirements. In Princess Maker type of games, the variance in stats required for endings are usually pretty large, which would allow you to play through them twice the same exact way and still get a different ending, here that is not the case. Every ending has a specific set of all five stats with a variance of 20 to achieve, go over? You're not getting that ending. Considering a lot of items increase her stats by 10 or so points and some items increasing up to three stats, it quickly becomes problematic. You find half way in that you're over in points in a certain stat to get an ending you were after, and using the item to lower that stat would raise another stat significantly higher than you could fix so you go "How about another ending" well you missed the page a previous day to unlock the ending you could try for now. That's a common occurance in my time with it. The lewd portions people may be interested in nearly don't exist. You can peep on her in the shower and see her butt but that's about it, the 'personal massager' is not the type of massager most would assume by it's look. As she's slowly making her way around her room, certain scenerios will happen where she'll do something clumsy and you will get a QTE in order to see her panties, but the issue with this is, since she's so incredibly slow you'll probably be playing at 4x speed (You can change speed with a button) and when the QTE's happen, they'll also play in 4x speed which makes them unenjoyable. You can also do some spectral ghost touching on her, but it only amounts to her being spooked and covering herself. Overall it's a good story and good idea severely hampered by it's mechanics that fails to reward you for doing well every step of the way by refusing endings for having Sachi 'overqualified'. Zero graphics options. Zero emotional attachment after your first playthrough. Can not recommend.

-Controls are ew, very very bad on pc (You look around with the keyboard arrows, I'm not joking) -No key binding so you pay for frustration anyway (K to accept, L to go back, you're welcome) -I'm still going to turn her into a professional bodybuilder and nobody can stop me (Pls devs the controls are seriously thrash, fix them)
