I downloaded the game when it was still version 0.11, but for some reason I couldn't start playing it for a very long time.
After almost 2 years, I finally decided to play it and did not regret it. It's a very cool novel, although I've only read the first part so far, but I really like both the characters and the plot.
I was especially pleased with the reference to Dissonance, because this is one of my most favorite novels, I did not expect to see a reference to it, because it is not particularly popular.
Thank you so much for the good emotions, I hope you will make the game to the end and not abandon it!
Yo! I just started and it seems awesome and I'm going through Linear mode. But will it make me get with "all" girls this way? Will I be able to turn down girls if I keep going through the Linear Route because I really only want to end up with One of them. Or will it force me to be with all of them?
Should I do sandbox mode so I can main one girl and finish the game that way?
Most of the game has a common route regardless of linear or sandbox. You'll be able to decide whether you go harem or opt for an individual LI in a future update. Linear mode only cuts out the sandbox elements, it does not affect your choices.
Gotcha, thanks for the quick response. Keep up the good work. The story and music is amazing.
Hi, I’ve run into a problem: the dialogue skips a mysterious pop-up box that appears, and because of this, I can't progress in the story. I’d appreciate some help. I’m playing the Russian-translated version. Android phone, version 0.14.2. Here is a link to a video showing what happened:
I will not be providing support for unofficial translations. They have a tendency to touch things they absolutely shouldn't and introduce bugs not present in the official release.
Report this to whoever did this translation or play the official English release if you want an officially supported build with guaranteed bug fixes.
9/10 VN, no Philippine representation! my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
(in all seriousness game and lore is great, story gives heavy LiL vibes hope creator continues updating!)
I was also wondering if any tan/dark skinned characters would be added in the future? that would be awesome I think
We're in the final chapter, I will not be adding any new characters anymore.
aww phoeey, still a great vn nonetheless, will see it through the end!!
so uhh what now did i finish the game... been going through days too see if anything will change, on day 255... gonna keep going i suppose.
Check the progress menu. If everything's checked off, you've reached the end of the current content until a new update lands.
sad times..
genuenly what am i supposed to do in the mountain thing in chap 3 ive went to all places but i just get back to the crossroads sign. Amazing game tho
Once you've visited every location, you get a third option once you arrive back at the start. If it doesn't appear, you've missed a place.
This game has good stories, but I am struggling on progress menu, maybe it is just me, sorry. But I didn't even wasted that much time on Silent Hill puzzles. Please make this menu more easier...
Huh?
I like the game. It's pretty funny, even if the MC qualifying everything can become grating at times. Yes, we don't need to know every time he didn't literally mean something in his head. Also, in Chapter 2, it seems like way too many events happen on Saturday or on the weekend in general. It makes it so you need to arbitrarily go through more weeks.
Does the game have Brazilian Portuguese?
I love the game, but it would be amazing to have the option to select other languages like Spanish :(
one of my favorite reads ever (which is saying something since I've read a large amount of VNs in varying quality). Came here for the 'content' but honestly the content is way more interesting.
A Girls Band Cry reference?? Hell yeah. Seeing that anime referenced was awesome
It's my favourite anime, it had to make an appearance. 😄
You have good taste, it’s an awesome anime. The appearance for me made your game an 11/10
wtf re zero reference, JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE DANIEL !!! tu pensais vraiment que je laisserais ce jour passer silencieusement ? Je connais le type de force avec lequel tu vibres, celle qui continue de grimper quoi qu'il arrive. Alors voici ton cadeau, une photo de profil enveloppée dans cette même aura, utilise-la où tu veux, tu connais la règle, MÊME SI LES ESCALIERS NE FINISSENT JAMAIS, NOUS CONTINUONS À GRIMPER !!!
After 4 months there is an update!! It's a miracle! Thank you ❤️
Can you make Girl #3 a regular, she looks like she's a real firecracker. Also, I like the way she imposes her sexual presence on Yui.
Also, I'm not far, but I hope the MC makes Ikari suffer.
Hi! First of all, I'd like to say a huge thank you for the game. The story is really engaging, and you really get immersed in it. And secondly, that's why I got so hooked on finding all the Easter eggs and secrets. I was wondering if there was an open resource out there that explains all the secrets you added to the game. It was really fun to play around with.
I don't think anyone's compiled a list of stuff, but there are semi-regular discussions about lore/easter eggs/references/... in the Discord server (mostly around the time of releases).
It seems the story isn't bad for me its great but i didn't even try the game lets see.
Damn its amazing for me though
Hello, i think i've said it before but great game. I had a question tho, was wondering where you get the music in the game from? Is it apart of Koikatsu or did you ask the LiL dev for some if it? or is it all free use on the internet somewhere? asking because like you, Im doing a personal project Inspired by Lost in You and LiL and want to use some of the music from both games in it. was wondering if you could point me in the right direction?
Also outside LiL what other inspiration did you have for the game and story?
Various sources. Almost all of the early stuff comes from https://dova-s.jp, but nowadays I use a wider variety.
If I were to list all of my sources of inspiration, I'd be writing a book, but some of the more prominent ones would be Doki Doki Literature Club, Life is Strange, various mythologies and the many hundreds of anime and manga I've watched/read. Of course there are plenty of other games/VNs/stories/... that have inspired me to various degrees over the years, this is just a few of them.
This was actually insanely helpful for the BGM stuff with the amount of tracks I immediately recognized so thanks a ton you really helped me with that.
As well, if you don't mind ofc, would it be okay if I asked you some other questions every now and then? Ive never really done a project like this before and asking someone who has experience in the same type of project would be really helpful, only if its not a bother tho so feel free to say no.
I don't mind, but this comment section is probably not the best place to ask this stuff. I'm super active in my discord server if you ever want to chat: https://discord.gg/nGkDW7Ys2w
I talk about all kinds of stuff there, including game development.
Yea that works, i was going to ask you about discord if youd said yes and i was going to join your server eventually anyway, so ill join in a few hours bc i got work, do you mind if i dm you?
MusMus is the artist for a majority of song content between the two. you can also just go into the game > audio folder to see something specific.
Really dude? I'm not saying it's bad, it was just unexpected, I like it by the way.
So when this game will be finished? I'm not asking about the updates since I'm not blind like the people that keeps asking when it's already in the comments section, and also. In discord, I read that Kurumi I think? The girl that is always beside the green haired girl, can't remember since I'm just waiting for the updates, been a long time since I downloaded it, So how many h-scenes will Kurumi have? I hope it's not only one.
I'm aiming to have the game wrapped up sometime between late 2027 and early to mid 2028.
Girls will all have more than 1 h-scene.
Oh hell nah, that long? This might become 3 GB, and I hope it won't happen, I don't know if my phone can download that big, and if that would happen, I won't be able to see the ending of this game, jeez.
Android build will definitely stay below 2GB. The first two chapters only add up to a little over a gigabyte on mobile.
You sure? Caused if that's the truth, it's great then, since the "God Tier Academy" has already ended, and will have a sequel, when I asked the developer of it, not on itch.io, patreon or F9, I forgot the full name.
When is the next update I really love this game 11/10 ( sorry for bad English)
Copying from the reply to the comment below:
Give or take 2-3 months. I'm working on two projects now (see recent announcements) so that's eating up a month every release. You can stay up to date on my Patreon or SubscribeStar and I regularly yap about progress in the Discord server as well (and subscribers have access to a progress tracker). 🙂
When version 0.16? I'm so curious because i'm in love with this game, it's very great

I'm having a problem with a quest specifically being mediator I continue to visit the bar and it won't complete? Why might this be?
Check the event requirements (click the ?), there is probably one you haven't completed.
Hello atrX I have a question! Were you inspired by the game lessons in love or have some direct connection with these two projects?
Hey! LiL was indeed one of many sources of inspiration (and one of the primary ones).
The more I play, the more I realize that I'm playing LIL It's just that in an alternate reality, even the plot twist with the roof is very similar to the roof and Maya in LIL I wish you great success in the game; it will definitely remain in my memory for a long time!
Unironically one of the best VNs I've ever played, great writing, great characters, comedy that reminds me of konosuba, idec about the porn at this point I'm like 15 hours in and I've barely seen any and I'll still keep playing just to see what happens next. 10/10
this game straight up comedy lol
How do I see the Sync ID to download the saves?
Sync IDs are valid for 1 hour.
I don't see it when I click on yes
And what do you see?
Just the screen to put the Sync ID
That's the download screen, not upload. You want to click "Upload saves" from the device where your saves are currently located and "Download saves" on the device you want to move your saves to.
É possível fazer Gameplays de Lost in You no YouTube?
Se você pular as poucas cenas de sexo, acho que dá
Is it a sandbox game?
You can pick between sandbox and linear mode (a more traditional VN format).
Absolute masterpiece, 10/10 comedy, 10/10 horror, 10/10 mystery, 10/10 romance.
Really appreciate seeing my childhood play rug. Such an unexpected surprise; plus the way it was included. XD
Unfortunately it was too slow for me. Prolly the only complaint I really have. Anything else is either minor or even just nitpicking.
Haven't played this game since like the first week I gave it a go since it wasn't really...sparking joy.
Does the MC become less of a dumb ass hole at some point?
Felt like I was watching a slow motion train wreck of doomed romances on multiple angles and it was honestly driving me kind of crazy
just continue watching it. it gets crazy good.
Around when? Cause I stopped after the acid trip and meeting the one girl on the beach.
The love talk with each girl while basically just soullessly cheating was just annoying me since I actually tried going out of my way to avoid it just to find out it's impossible.
And good in what way?
Are there translations into other languages? At least machine language. If not, could you tell me where I can find translations from the community? I need them in Russian.
Do you plan to add Spanish?
I have no plans to officially add languages other than English. A high quality translation of Lost in You would require a lot of time (and knowing the language). There are community translations, but I can't vouch for the quality of any of them (and in my experience, they usually aren't very good as it's just the game fed through an AI for translation more often than not).
Spanish tl is pure mtl, but is readable, at least, I understand a bit because the experiences reading corean light novel,
using google translate x)i just finished the latest update and i know it wasn't part of the latest update but i only just started to play the game again. Anyway i know its a weird thing to critique but the kimono scene Yokubo should've had red because greens and reds complement each other and Nami should've had blue because blue and blue, and Saki looks great in white. i know i've left a comment before it truly is an amazing game i love it every time i play it, it has a great story, plot, and comedy and i never wanna stop playing once i start the only reason i said something about the kimonos is because that's just the kind of autism i have. i can't wait for more, keep working hard. i wish i could donate but its just not in the books for me.
Sensei Overnight and Dissonance references back to back? Interesting.
Just booted the game up so this isn't a review, but the very first thing I hear is one of the songs used in Lessons in Love that never fails to make me sad. v_v why you gotta do me like that?
Do ladys moan?
Is chapter 3 will be in V0.15?
