That was phenomenal. I felt a sheer whirlwind of emotions. Every time I caught onto something, I was desperately hoping Theodore would see it.
The first ending implemented is so bittersweet. Just playing through left an ache in my heart for everyone. It is definitely a satisfactory ending. Even a tragic and bittersweet ending is still an ending, and I appreciate that.
That all said, NOT THE ENDING I'M PLAYING FOR DAMNIT~! I fully intend to jump on the next available routes. This is not how I'm gonna end the story! I want to see everything played to its most logical conclusion! And hopefully, a happy one.
Kudos to the writers and everyone involved. This is peak storytelling. I say this as an avid collector of stories and teller of them. If a story can catch a person's heart, it's superbly written. It certainly captured mine. Like I said, my heart ached for everyone at the end of this route. Well done, I tip my proverbial hat in the direction of everyone who made this story happen!
Lawrence is an ugly fugly crusty dusty musty rusty, piece of shit hoe who can jump off the empire state building and land on a pile of bird shit, coated in urine, then thrown into a vat of acid, then into a lava pool, then thrown into then sun, then landing back on earth, landing dead center in the shibuya incident, hit with some idle transfiguration, then a hollow purple, then a flame arrow, world cutting slash, then punched into the MHA verse where he is pummeled by class 1A, then is blasted into OPM, Hit with Genos's incinerate, a serious punch, table flip, serious sneeze, Omni directional punch, then sent into DBZ where the entire verse spams Ki attacks on him, including 2, not 1, but 2 spirit bombs, then lands back on earth, hit with one last black flash from Yuji, then is pushed of THAT cliff and hit with that happy feet wombo combo, a 20-20-20 dropkick, and if he manages to make it back the the shithole he calls home, I hope both sides of his pillow are hot😁
There's no way that's the end 🥲 why is the update so short. Anyways, I'm so mad right now, i figured something bad's gonna happen after that guy went to Theodore. I want that guy dead. 😊
Writing is not bad, there's some interesting things happening, but like 70% of the time I'm just Theothore not knowing why things happen. Even when the first ending drops there's some lose ends and like that's normal for a "police like" genre VN, right?
The peace of it all... it's seems to me WAYYYYY to rushed. Guys, this all happens in one week?!?!?!? The romance is forge way too early, those two get to meet 2 days and blam, suddenly in love????? Also the let's add to our spy agency this 0 experienced guy who also failed to do it's improved task the day before thing????
Don't get me wrong, when those things hit they are very emotional and I like them but I think it could be done better or something...
Love the charming/calmed music, the blurred background art is brilliant for the story, these really tied the experience as a hole. I really like the new sprites rather than the old ones hopefully Rou, Javier and the rest can be updated to some flashier sprite work.
Yike, when I scroll down at my feed and I thought it was Rou was staring me down while it was MC is the one staring me down. Best way to keep me on my toe. xP
Is that really all you got? You realize your jealousy is blatantly obvious? Literally a 2 year old couldn't do something like this so obviously you're just saying it to be spiteful and clearly you're just trying to be spiteful cause you are jealous so, why don't you take your little 2 year old brain and focus on developing that before you open your mouth to give such pitiful little baby "criticism".
If you really don't like it at least have the decency to give constructive criticism otherwise maybe you ought to listen to the saying "if you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all" because it will seriously save you a lot of trouble considering how bad your personality must be if you're dim enough to say something like that.
dude want attention so bad he make 2 accs just to say this vn its "sux", grow up kid, and btw finish ur schools be4 ur read any vn since how much "mature" u r
Does "Javier's path" mean just choosing Javier's plan at the power plant? And not actually a romance path with Javier? Is Rou the only romance?
And is Lawrence knocking on the hotel door the current end of content available?
I'm enjoying it! The writing is good and I like Rou and Javier, however the other characters like David and Monti definitely stick to their tropes a bit too much...
Also seeing that Build 9 will have an ending for Javier's path seems like it will not clear up a lot of stuff... Unless it will be a "bad" end that ends abruptly.
I'm genuinely just asking if I had reached the last of the available content, none of my comment was meant to rush them.
And if I am understanding "Javier's Route" correctly or not. Since usually "route" suggests romance for most VNs, but it currently still seems to primarily focus on Theo's feelings for Rou. If Rou is the only romance and Javier's "route" is more so to do with Javier's way of investigating, that is also fine. I'm just trying to find out information.
Can there please be a setting to disable dialogue interrupts? Half the time Javier talks the game speeds past half the lines when he explains things assuming I don't want to read them.
Well I will keep spoiler free review because I think is a story worth reading by yourself and taking notes.
First of all I the things I want to start praising is the presentation of the VN, the visuals are unique and beautiful, the art is very geometric and is very impressive how it can tell a lot of about the characters without you even reading them saying anything, their design, body language and expressions really match well making them feel alive. Next is on the tracks used for it, they fit the mood and no song feels out of place or too much distracting is the right combination but one minor gripe I have is that sometimes it's a bit too low to hear it.
Now on the writing, I will not lie to you reading this, is a amazingly written, the pace of story is always keep you on the edge of your sit and you can never predict what is going to happen next, it's a good mystery VN to match ones like Zero Escape or Hotel Dusk however the story is complicated in a very good way, is easy to lose yourself and reread part but the team is smart enough to let the player catch up with the story and understand what is going on, I would recommend making notes if you reading this are into it because it pays off very well.
To the team behind Rain Check: You guys have all my admiration for the work you people are making and I plan to support it and I want to see it flourish and get the recognition it deserves, I cannot overstate how much this story means to me now and I wholehearted want to see where it goes. Thank you and cheers for the amazing work
So far so good! I expected more of a text since there are a lot of builds, but my hopes don't matter with such a good quality VN! Im in love with this art and hope to see more soon! Thanks for doing your job (and putting a lot of effort in it)
Hmm... last played at Build 4 and after i download the game in Build 6 i ant load my save file, maybe that all i can say for the bug and... dont make any funeral in the game
Just gotta say, Rou/Radcanine, I fucking love your VN, I remember watching your streams saying you planed on making one, and God do I love it, your amazing at all that you done with this VN, (I hate that I had no choice but to choose Javiers choice over Rou's) I seen you essentially from the beginning to now, just got to say, your doing great and keep up the amazing work! - SamuelTheBolf ❤️

David = Pog
Lawrence is an ugly fugly crusty dusty musty rusty, piece of shit hoe who can jump off the empire state building and land on a pile of bird shit, coated in urine, then thrown into a vat of acid, then into a lava pool, then thrown into then sun, then landing back on earth, landing dead center in the shibuya incident, hit with some idle transfiguration, then a hollow purple, then a flame arrow, world cutting slash, then punched into the MHA verse where he is pummeled by class 1A, then is blasted into OPM, Hit with Genos's incinerate, a serious punch, table flip, serious sneeze, Omni directional punch, then sent into DBZ where the entire verse spams Ki attacks on him, including 2, not 1, but 2 spirit bombs, then lands back on earth, hit with one last black flash from Yuji, then is pushed of THAT cliff and hit with that happy feet wombo combo, a 20-20-20 dropkick, and if he manages to make it back the the shithole he calls home, I hope both sides of his pillow are hot😁
Also David is a Chad and deserves admin commands!
So far so good.
[POTENTIAL SPOILERS]I've had my suspicion for a while due to Lawrence's inconsistencies... But I guess he is. A. Traitor.Wait is the actual ending when Lawrence push Javier of the cliff?? Or is there another ending i reach the end btw.
Spoilers
Bro i reallly like that guy whyyyyy
I just watched people play it and I swear Lawrence need to burn in hell with the hottest fire in all of creation for ruining the rou X Theodore ship

I'm not a religious man, but if there is hell, Lawrence will burn there for eternity.
😭😭😭
No not Lawrence 😅
I knew it!

What's context?
This is the first time I'm seeing this LOL I have no clue but it's funny
Monti with an I is so cute LOLL
One question tho, as it is now, despite your choices you only get the bad ending , right?
That's correct, more endings will be available as more routes are written.
thanks for claryfining it, cant wait for the next updates!
I just read it. Theta is not gonna like what happens.
Game sux,just like ur feet.My 2 y/o cousin can make it even better.😒
"Game sux". So is your personality.
Is that really all you got? You realize your jealousy is blatantly obvious? Literally a 2 year old couldn't do something like this so obviously you're just saying it to be spiteful and clearly you're just trying to be spiteful cause you are jealous so, why don't you take your little 2 year old brain and focus on developing that before you open your mouth to give such pitiful little baby "criticism".

Fetishizing degenerate. Get a grip.
Shut yo trap mister.Oops,I mean kid,You prob a minor🙄
dude want attention so bad he make 2 accs just to say this vn its "sux", grow up kid, and btw finish ur schools be4 ur read any vn since how much "mature" u r

Games in its first year, remember to not compare it to other games 3-6 years in.
Let it cook
They are doing an amazing job.
I'm genuinely just asking if I had reached the last of the available content, none of my comment was meant to rush them.
And if I am understanding "Javier's Route" correctly or not. Since usually "route" suggests romance for most VNs, but it currently still seems to primarily focus on Theo's feelings for Rou. If Rou is the only romance and Javier's "route" is more so to do with Javier's way of investigating, that is also fine. I'm just trying to find out information.
So if you know, let me know!
It would be gun if there's a zombie extras~
How do u get to Javier's route?
happy 1 year anniversary! (pretend this was commented 10 days ago 😭)
Can there please be a setting to disable dialogue interrupts? Half the time Javier talks the game speeds past half the lines when he explains things assuming I don't want to read them.
You can check the history for Javier's dialogue.
AHHH!!! I need a romance route with Monti so bad! Or something! PLEASE ;_;
Just a quick question, is the story linear? Cause the mc seems to be just fond of Rou for now
The story is not linear, with some slight branching that changes how the story plays out.
Got it thanks! Def looking foward for more Rou
What happens to Javier and rich daddy???
I want to fking drown myself everytime Monti appears. Why wouldn't he just shut up or smth.
Never the less build 6 and 7 hit me pretty hard and tears 100% flowing out of my eyes. Thanks Radcanine
Checked for rain... it did.
Spolier:
I hope we can save Rou somehow cause when I think he at that state makes me hurt
spoiler warning please
Ahh sorry my bad
Major Spoilers (Maybe)
BRO THE SONG "Please Remember Me" FUCKING DOES THINGS TO ME OFMGGGGG WHYYYY T^T
THE GAMES'S OST IS BEAUTIFUL KEEP IT UP RADDD TvT
Omg, Monti is sooo dogdamn adorable! ☺️ What a lovable himbo~ 😋

It will be implemented next when Javier's plan is finished.
Thank You
