ReviewOK, after finishing all the route using around 40-50 hours-ish, I've come up with this review

To be honest, this game is meant to be play with the Restoration patch which is not finished yet, but there's a Res patch that used google translation and I'm using that one since I don't want to wait for the good one to finish. Moe Novel should step up their game and give us the full uncensored game already. Now for the review

Visual(CG/Sprite) :
This game art style is the style that I like, doesn't mean it's good for everyone, but I like it. I would say that this game, judging from the amount of reading, doesn't have enough sprite, sometimes a sprite doesn't fit the dialog quite well too but overall I still like the visual aspect of this game, CG is actually something tho

Music :
If you buy the OST pack, Listening to the OST on its own is pretty good, but some music doesn't really fit the scene, and sometimes the music got cut short, it's like the game is trying to hype you up for a big moment but then turn out there's nothing. I really love both of the OP for this VN and I like some of the BMG too but if I were to compare this game music to IMHHW then this game is still lacking.

But I gotta give a special shoutout for both of the Op songs, it's so fucking good

Route/Story :
This game has 4 route with no "bad ending", no matter what you choose, you will end up with someone. This section will definitely contain some spoiler, but I will break down what I think about each route from my least favorite to most

Korona :
The sole reason why I think Korona route is the worst (not to say that it's not good) is that the conflict was so bland, the conflict is just she being jealous of Saya and just making stuff up in her own mind. For me, Korona is already annoying enough like a younger sibling clinging to you and wanting to play with you, this also might be my own bias since I love Saya :P
Orihime :
I wouldn't say that this route is not fun, I like this route a lot since I also liked the character but compare to the other 2 this one just falls short. Orihime's route will follow a more grown-up lifestyle of her, but the downer about this route for me is that there was no major conflict, it is indeed a wholesome story but without a conflict, it will be easily forgettable. This route has a warm feeling to me, but as I said, it lacks conflict
Hikari :
This might be the main route the game wants you to play, after all, I get the feeling that Hikari is the main Heroine. This route is, in my opinion, the best storytelling since it has the advantage of Hikari being Akito childhood's friend and it makes for a good background story. Orihime and Korona route doesn't really care about Akito past that much while Saya and Hikari focus on that. And the conflict in this one is good too, it may be a little childish but it fits perfectly with the game.
Saya :
This is overall the best route at least, in my opinion, Saya route plays similarly to Hikari's. The goal both routes are trying to achieve is the same thing but the obstacle is different but because of Saya route's way of solving the problem, it has an advantage over Hikari. One critique I would like to give is that the problem-solving in this route is pretty stupid if you ask me and it doesn't make much sense but this is still overall the best route, it is the most satisfying route

Conclusion :
If you like Moe Novel's previous game "If my heart had wings" I really recommend this game, it got the same feeling but the story-telling is a little blander. Some scene are not as satisfying as the last game and the theme for this game is Stargazing which look normal and boring compare to the last game's Glider but it's still a good read and I overall enjoy it :)
