I enjoyed playing through this! Life as a working student is tough and this captures some of that vibe. I like the detail where when I tried clicking on rest a second time and Kai was like "I can't rest" since they already rested once that week. As a student who once had a part time job for some time, I know that feel, at least to a slight extent.
The aesthetic is also pretty; I like how the backgrounds, minigames, and sprites have similar "vibes" in terms of color, like the saturation and value levels of the colors are similar to each other and so nothing seems to be out of place.
Another thing that I liked was the flow: the minigames and visual novel sections are balanced (meaning there's not too much minigame time that you're taken away from the story, and there's just enough minigame time to keep you paying attention). It's just the right mix of VN and gameplay for me!
Overall, it's nice! The working student life sim is a cool concept that I'd like to see expanded further in a longer game in the future.
p.s. The Google Docs part was my favorite minigame and made me smile, ("why are you running"). This game brought back some fond memories of my student life.
