after playing the first game two nights ago I found this yesterday and stayed up until 2:30 playing it, I started both games at around 10:00 in the evening (on separate evenings of course). This series is amazing, I love the art, the story, the music, really just everything about it. another 10/10, hopefully we get to see more of these characters in the future (and if we do then I hope my sleep schedule will forgive me for staying up until around 2:00 in the morning again).
guess which characters got too relatable and realistic again? (everyone. especially akarsha. shes literally me irl) absoloutely loved this, i wish i could play both games for the first time again. 11/10 can't wait for the third game
Pretty much everything I could have asked for in a follow-up to the first. I love how it explores a lot of "missing pieces" from the first game and dove much more deeply into a lot of complex themes. Every character is treated with such a high degree of empathy and nuance. I also love how humanized the parents are and that whole aspect is such a brilliant portrayal of how complicated those relationships can be (Diya’s one with her mom hit close to home for me in several ways). Min’s character development is amazing and her positive relationship with Diya makes me melt into a puddle of happy tears (as did the ending, which felt like a beautiful culmination of everything both games stand for). It’s so incredibly difficult to balance being so real and so raucously hilarious but both games pull it off amazingly. Akarsha’s texts never failed to absolutely destroy me lmao Thank-you so much again for making both games! They're both all-timers and I’ll def. be recommending them as much as I can going forward!
I really enjoyed this game and it's predecessor. It's a really beautiful look at queer individuals and the complex ways we are forced to move through the world. These games made me laugh, smile and even cry at points. Some of the parental trauma was especially hard. But I found the characters to be very relatable. Especially Diya, she felt extremely relatable to me multiple times.
I love how honest and authentic this game feels. There's no "sexy filter" or making everyone look too beautiful. None of their problems are, as they even have a conversation about, misunderstandings that wouldn't happen if people just talked.
Love it <3 Thank you so much for making this sequel and I'm looking forward to your next game.
Very excited to read! But one request [possibly for future games, I guess]: I have RSI, so auto-forward is critical for being able to enjoy visual novels! Can you expose the option for that? I know Ren'py has it.
as a teenage questioning desi girl, this hit VERY close to home. I can relate a lot to Diya, Noelle, Akarsha, and Min. Seeing how their relationships with their parents, identity and culture mirrored my own experiences made me cry.

Is the bonus art included in buso2 the same as buso1?

Will there be gamepad support?
1st game was a masterpiece, as well as the 2nd.

I loved it, mostly because of the gushy idiotic gay love, but still I loved it a lot. Thanks for making it :) [This applies to 1 & 2]
