Great chaotic fun and I enjoyed the puns!
Please make more clown dating sims 😭😭😭😭
have played and introduced this to friends like multiple times already, the funniest and silliest thing 😭😭😭 not to mention the gorgeous art!!
I downloaded this game simply because of the lack of clown content in dating sims and i was met with the most hilarious 2-4 hours of gameplay (i lost track of time) the amount if times i screamed "WHATS GOING ON" means its a 10/10! I loved this so much! My love interest I chose was the only one who didnt hate clowns and actually followed the 8 clown commandments! Pierro my beloved! Totally worth my time and i will soon buy that artbook when i have more than two dollars!
pew pew pizza tower time
Not gonna lie, this game made me cry inside. It's so beautifull and the art style is good. I love the clowns and anne as a clown is fun
Honestly one of the best artstyles and storytelling ever. I hope one day I can buy artbook without killing my wallet, but I am sure gonna draw all the husbandos <3
Creator, I made fanart ^^
OMG SHE'S SO CUTEEEE AAAA thank you!!! T__T
your art is adorable!!!
You're welcome, 'twas a fun game :D
I just told my crush “Look, a game in which I can date you!” He is about to block me. I will play this later, it looks awesome!
Is good and I love everything but I feel Anne is...rude.
Its not even funny how much i NEED deeper dish to happen
Playing this again makes me nostalgic hehe :D
They're all still as attractive as I remember them lolol (especially Suiren even though non romaneable :3), and the game never gets old 4 moi :D
Your Charlie icon!! ♡\( ̄▽ ̄)/♡
(◕‿◕)/❤
this is amazing... I cannot count how many times I laughed
PLEASE, WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S NEXT
The sequel will happen, but who knows when! 🤡
To get updates, follow my itch.io account or OC Twitter acc for updates!
Ohh, so there WILL be a sequel! (Or what I mean is that the idea wasn't abandoned)
Unfortunately I don't have a twitter ;( But I'll still check!
This has to be the weirdest thing I've ever played- but for all of that it was actually rather cute and made me laugh quite a bit. I have to admit despite my doubts it was a fun experience. Highly recommend if you're just looking to clown around. ;3
I really loves this game AND really hope I can play the sequel, AND the story of Cal Zone can continue! 555555! i'm the clown philantropist waiting for sequel!I bought the PDF and it's always fun to read the settings and the story behind it!
LMAO, I love this. The one thing I love about games is their humor and this is now one of my favorites
...WHY DO YOU HAB TO MAKE THEM AL GUD LOOKING ANF MY TYPE AT THE SAME TIMEEEEEEEE AHWGBHA>VHA VE
Its a bit goofy BUT AMAZING!!! like the backstories and characters are perfect that Its hard for me to ship and simp cuz of it (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)
I love this so much especially Cilantro , Pizzaro and Pierro THEYRE JUST SO FRICKING CUTEEE
hell yea
absolute war crime, i loved it, download immediately 💀
If I may ask, How long is this game?
As it says on the front page, ~20,000 words, approx 1 hour+ (reading to yourself).
If you read it out loud, it often takes 3+ hours.
Thank you so much for telling me!!!🥰
My favorite Otome rn lol (and I play A LOT of them!) I'm sad that we weren't able to actually date Pizzaro tho... maybe if there's a sequel??
WAIT WE CANT?? :((((
I loved it and now want more of all these characters. I hope you may make another full game for these characters.
I didn't know what was happening half of the time but i regret nothing.
...also Pizzaro is underappreciated and i love him
Wow. All I have to say is, this story is definitely unexpected, in a good way. I laughed a lot at the unexpected twists and 4th wall break while playing through the game. The story is superrr wholesome, the CGs are well-made, and the characters are really interesting!
Overall, 10000000000/10 :D
REALLY RECOMMEND PLAYING!!!
What a ride! Like, oh my freaking god. This went wackier and deeper than I expected. Whenever I'd think I'm having a firmer grasp of the story line, it'd go in a direction I couldn't have foreseen and surprise me with a twist! It was like one long Monty Python sketch. I loved the absurdity and goofiness of it all. The self-awareness, the puns, the references, the light-hearted banter - it was all simply great and fun.
I honestly did not jump into this expecting much. I thought this was going to be some silly, memey, short game - and I mean, it was. But - it was so much more than that. It had a comprehensive plot, a colorful and funny cast, and a complete story. By the end of it, I actually felt like I went on a genuine journey with Anne, Cilantro, Pizzaro and the others. I felt like I really got to know each and every character (this was all in the span of 3 and a half hours.)
I really appreciated the heroine. I liked her usual stoic, yet honest and sometimes snarky demeanor. Her common-sense, though sometimes disbelief at at all these new things happening to her. I thought it was rather relatable and most of her responses mirrored how I'd likely would respond given her situation. And Pizzaro... my adorably pitiful, poor, naive, pure-hearted baby. It was amusing, though also sad seeing the way he would mercilessly get bullied at times. He really deserves happiness. I felt guilty pairing the heroine with anybody else. I enjoyed their interactions and seeing Anne & Pizzaro together. I truly wished them the best and would have desired to see more quality time spent between them. Same with Cilantro on his route. It was so short!
Nevertheless, the art is superb and the soundtrack was fitting. Writing was well-done as many have already commented. Really helped immersed me more into the game. Liked the crossover with the Ozmafia-esque art style and how it was used to set the contrast between the "normal" and Cal Zone people.
Those break-from-character moments with Anne - where she'd go full on simping/fangirling mode whenever seeing a hot guy was funny and low-key relatable, at least in the context of fiction, haha. I completely felt that when seeing Cilantro for the first time and when Pizzaro removed his makeup. I was like, "damn. I definitely made the right choice in playing this game and subjecting myself to seeing these eye-candy fictional men."
Anyway, absolutely adored this cute, unique, weird game. Totally one of the best otome I've played on itch.io. Thanks for supporting Linux as a platform!
It has been a long time since I've played a game that had me doubling over in laughter while also keeping me at the edge of my seat throughout. I was expecting this to be a silly little game but the men are hot and the stakes are high. Go buy the artbook or throw a couple bucks to these guys. I can't wait to see what future projects are in store.
I am down bad for Cilantro. It was a very well made game with clean visuals, it was a very good time :D!!
If you're asking yourself should I download it just do it you only need one reason and it's C L O W N S!
I thought this was going to be a short, funny little nothing game when I mentioned it to my friends for the shock value of knowing a clown dating sim existed. A nearly 6 hour discord call later consisting of us "voice acting" every character later and this game has easily become one of our favorites. Practically every few lines had us laughing and/or saying "What the f*ck is happening". Funny and shockingly cute with great art all while never feeling cringy. (To my little group of weird internet friends so take that with a grain of salt) Many laughs, inside jokes, and even a few drawings have been born.
Highly recommend, especially if you have people to experience this with.
This has honestly got to be one of my favorite games, the art is great, I thought I would just be in for a goofy lil game, but it was that and more, weird in the best of ways
this was well made and well-put game . i really liked the characters and the story was bizarre.
delightfully bizarre
I played this also cause haha funny, but it was unexpectedly good. The writing and story overall was well done, and all the characters were funny and weird, my cup of tea. 10/10 would recommend. Plus, it's free, so if you have the spare time, what do you have to lose?
i absolutely love this, everything is so amazing, so funny and enjoyable, everyone is so lovable oh my god im glad i found this, protag was really fun to play with, a cursed yet heaven-blessed game!
as someone who absolutely loves clowns and jesters and everything of the sort, as soon as i saw this game i immediately knew i would love it. it's incredibly fun and cute, all the designs are beautiful (interface, characters and the backgrounds too) and i just loved all the jokes! the characters are super loveable too (i cant decide on a fave tbh, they're all really really good)
genuinely can't recommend it enough, as soon as i finished the game i immediately bought the art book pdf, which i also 100% stand behind, all the illustrations are super cool and it was fun seeing some more trivia of all the characters and the artists who created the game!
10/10 game fr PLAY IT BESTIES
Well, for starters this is not what I expected. Based on the fact that I'm playing this and almost 3 am is probably why I was even more confused than I should've been, on another note I enjoyed this game and all the characters were very nice. Lots of plot twists I never would've expected. In the end, my favorites were Pizzaro and Perrio, the art was AMAZING the different art styles shocked me a bit at first but I eventually got used to it. The art at the end of the routes was amazing I can't help but fawn over each of them. The storyline was a bit chaotic but I still enjoyed it and I would recommend this game to other people for sure, it's definitely not what I expected
The art and GUI are gorgeous! Loved the puns!
Didn't expect much of a plot goint into it, but man, it TAKES A TURN.
I kinda wish Pizzaro kept his costume on a bit longer, though :'(
