Lovely Lady RPG

Will linux receive the updates as well?

oh one minor bug report: on macOS, the exit button in the main menu closes the game window, but does not actually quit the application. not a big deal but definitely catches me off guard lmao

it is all so tangible, so textured and present i am there, in a way that is never true in reality the shape and structure of the world fill my head to bursting and it is like i have always been in the city, though i have no memory of it

it is real and it is there and it carries the weight of millennia of history layered atop itself, curling in and around, cracked and leaning and beautiful

the real world, by comparison, is this flat, contextless thing, made abstract beyond the limits of human habitation

the raven is literally me in irl life thank you for bringing her into existence

I don't remember if I left a comment or not, but I want to say that I love this game so much! I've shown it to a few friends and they all really love it too! Hope you keep making awesome art

This game is great, I did my first playthrough a few days ago and a few more after that and there's so much to love.  Art, music, and writing are all amazing. I love the story, the world it presents, there's so many interesting questions about the setting of this place and how it came to be this way. Ghost and the Pulp Writer are my favorites, and it was so easy to become attached to them and want to make their lives just a bit better. The artbook is also a wonderful read, it's great seeing how the game changed behind the scenes as development went on. 

Idk how I even found out about this game, but it's one of the greatest and most emotionally resonant stories I've experienced in a game ever. Thanks for such an unforgettable experience, Ghost will be the next "literally me" character for the foreseeable future.

I played through a few days ago and I have not been able to  get this game out of my head, I don't know if I ever will either. Thanks so much for making this wonderful thing. Pulp Writer is my new wife

Im in love with this game :3

Thank you for making this. I really needed more lesbian rats in my life.

Hello I played this game back in September and watching my friend play through the game now really reaffirmed how much this game means to me. When i first played the game I was having a lot of trouble physically obtaining the hrt i was already prescribed and had effectively been off meds for a few months + having sort of kinda temporality detransitioned during the first years of the pandemic really made me feel physically sick whenever the Nightmare said anything.  The first nightmare sequence felt so fucking visceral and authentic, then I immediately go to the gender clinic, get utterly disgusted, and realize just how special this game was going to be for me. Now looking back I can also say this game was kind of a catalyst for me to start breaking away from a lot of mindsets that were keeping me from embracing myself. LLRPG feels so unabashedly celebratory of all the weird, scrungly, messy, and horny that people can be that it really changed my perception of what its “ok” to be, specifically as a trans woman. That i don’t need to keep fruitlessly chasing some vague reddit-trans idea of being this perfectly passing ball of uwu femininity.  I guess what im saying is this game honestly taught me how to start unlearning shame.  

Thank you two so much for making this game. My life unironically has been made better for playing it.

love this game, is there any way i can pay for the artbook without buying the whole game again? :p

Beautiful and perfect and lovely omg

I just adore the writing in this! The world is just so REAL and lived-in. There's stuff that made me laugh a lot (Nasty Girl's dialogue and some of the silly dialogue you can choose) stuff that made my skin crawl (the interview ughhh) and stuff that made me a little teary (having a heart to heart with the Pulp Writer)

Speaking of I LOVE THAT SKRUNGLY LITTLE RAT she's literally perfect

I am definitely going to check out more games in the Lovely Ladyverse now, great work and thank you for making one of my favorite games of 2024!

I'm gonna be honest, I knew about this game for a while and was planning on playing it, but then twitter handpicked some screenshots and I like the goober I am decided to believe internet strangers instead of follow my heart. So now several months later I was bored on new years eve and gave it a shot.

I am a Trans woman who uses a Possum persona online, I live in the UK, rurally. I am incredibly gay and invested in literature. I have never in my life felt like a game was so specifically made for me, I was flip flopping between crying and making hysterical little gay whines whilst reading all of this, I've done two playthroughs so far and I don't intend to stop until I've gotten at least 90% of the achievements.

I want to thank Poppy and Mia so so much, you two have made something so incredibly special and close to my heart. I wish to carry this game with me for a long time and I will return to it as often as my heart allows me to. It's so full of soul and such personably relatable content, a life-changing experience for me <3

A little late, (since I played this around the time it got released and have been meaning to comment), but I wanted to thank the both of you for making this game. I don't think I've ever played a game so funny yet also viscerally upsetting at the same time, but coming out loving every second of it. I adored Ghost so much as a protagonist, she's such a funny rat. A lot of her silly dialogue options made me genuinely giddy when reading them in my head, and I felt for her a lot with all the garbage she has to go through in the course of the game.

I also really loved the art, absolutely beautiful art style and also  delightfully silly when it needs to be. Genuinely glad I decided to buy the artbook alongside the game (loved the annotations in it, really gave more insight to the process than most artbooks I've read). Loved all the designs for the wacky animal people, in particularly The Sinner's. I enjoyed how normal she was presented in her first image, and then later just becomes this absolute tall, lanky, imposing creature (with the most impeccable dress sense) in the later drawings of her.

I'm eagerly looking forward to whatever project either of you will be working on in the future 🐀

Utterly adored every second of it. It was hilarious and harrowing and sweet and just utterly buried itself in my psyche and made me talk about little else for a week. Favourite game of 2024. Thank you so much for making it!

I finished it in one sitting. Then i finished it twice more in the same sitting. This might be my all time favourite game. It feels made for me. The most ive ever connected with a game

This game has weaseled its way into one of my favourite games of all time, up there with the holy father Disco Elysium itself and Red Dead Redemption 2. Everything is just kinda perfect in a very tailored way, if that makes sense. As someone else said, it really does just make you feel seen. Like, I'm a scrungly little trans woman playing a game made by another scrungly little (dev you're scrungly in my mind now you can't fight this) trans woman. It's like meeting eyes with that one other driver at a stoplight that's dancing their ass off to whatever music, like yeah, I get ya. That's so you, and that's also really me. There's nothing I can say that hasn't already been said, but yeah, it's just beautiful to have such a proudly queer game, an outright microcosm of queer culture. It's written in, like, a lingua franca for transbians. And it's written really well too, and has motivated me on my own novel a ton just by seeing the sheer skill and heart. I'd strive to be more specific usually but it is just all around solid, it takes the style Disco Elysium set down and cranks it up a ton through an amplifier painted rainbow, and it works magnificently.

Probably heard this a million times, but absolutely keep doing what you're doing. This is far beyond just a cool narrative-driven game, it's a wonderful message that we're all here and we're queer, and we all have shit to deal with, but life is still beautiful, and w(omen)e are beautiful - even though the weird voice in our brains likes to object to that fact. Also that you should steal estrogen.

despite being trans and gay, i feel like this game may not be for me. but even so i wanted to say i really like the world design and setting, it has that kind of half-real quality that worms into my imagination in the best way. i admire you making something that so clearly resonates with a lot of people. if i do end up playing more of it i will be sure to comment and leave more of my thoughts <3

I tried to buy this game and the art book while it was on sale but the sale ended as I was paying for it. I paid the amount for the art book but since the sale expired I don't have access to it. And I don't have a way of paying the difference now without paying for another whole copy of the game. Could you message me?

I think one of the biggest takeaways I have from this game (and I'm gonna focus on that because I'll ramble about hundreds of other takeaways till the sheep come home) is that I now have a little statue in my brain I can turn my dysphoria into and tell it to fuck off.

The character that's based on is definitely not a joke and is still distressing and hurtful for a large part of the game (as is probably intended), but the way they'll occasionally just interject with their asinine bullshit and is either ignored or shut down in favour of something else is great. Like, you really don't have to listen to that worm in your brain and you can tell it to go do one!

So thanks for that, you've made a trans girl's life significantly happier.

Hey, This is a slightly longer and heavier comment, but I kind of felt like I need to let everyone who made this game know about it.

I had been playing it sporadically and restarted after screwing up one of the quests, and just so happened to be playing through it around the election. The day after, when I was still in shock, I played through the pride parade section, and nearly burst into tears. This game has made me feel so seen and embodies that "keep moving forward" mentality so perfectly. I didn't think I could feel this sort of intimate solidarity so clearly, but you've given that, and for that I am so thankful.

This game is officially my favorite piece of art in terms of personal meaning. It feels like I'm talking to someone who's going through what  am and telling me to keep going and There's no way to properly express how important that is to me.

Are the different platform versions the same? The download page shows different numbers for Windows, macOS and Linux. I just want to play via SteamOS.

EDIT: Weirdly, the Linux version opens in Desktop Mode, but not Gaming Mode and the Windows version runs a bit weird through Proton.

This game made me find out lead was a tasty treat. I didn't know what I was missing. 10/10!

Is it a bug that spacebar does not merely advance the text, but will also choose option 1 if possible?

 I have issues double clicking, and accidentaly choosing, but now neither spacebar nor mouse will save me.

Where can I report bugs (and spelling mistakes)?
