Hello!

My name is Mayrice and I'm a member of Locasaurus, a collective of French translators. We are interested in your game, so if a French localization is something you might enjoy, don't hesitate on contacting us!

this was way too funny

WHY THIS VN ISN'T MORE POPULAR??????
I ENJOY THIS IMMENSELY, RELIVING YOUR COLLEGE DAYS' TRAUMA CAN'T BE THIS FUN HAHAHAHAHAHAHA XD

This VN was so funny, It took me back to my college days 🤭 Really nice entry for the jam. Good luck with the employ search!!

Really enjoyed this VN for depicting its subject material in a humorous format! It made my day to be taken back to the college academic setting (ugh, in the love/hate way). I love the silliness of how you can side-track in so many creative ways (of course you're going to play more video games right before an important deadline) and to end up with the wildest endings. It's an absolute joy trying to solve the mystery how to get these 7.

thanks for playing! a game of league a day keeps the exam anxiety away :D

Honestly I absolutely loved this short visual novel, it really reminds me what University was like and how absolutely pointless the time was there. Definitely agree with the route, there are so many easy ways to slip up and at the end of the day, I think I would have rather taken the route of going to Europe as a tattoo artist.

thank you! I can't say my universities times were pointless... but yeah, at some point i've learned how to mass-produce theses like subway sandwiches... 

it might be sloppy and half of the references lettuce is falling apart but hey... it's a sandwich! edible and passable :D

College students, take notes. This game is extremely informative and anyone pursing a degree should be encouraged to play this.
