What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Hello, dear players,
I'm Lucy, the only developer of this game.

As I'm the only person that is working on this game, this game definately isn't as good as other commercial otome games, and it certainly does not represent the average level of Chinese visual novel games.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Because the developer has a full-time job which isn't related to this game, she could only work on this game on weekends. The estimation time of completion is not known....
Life has been really hard on me. I can't promise when I could finish making the English version. I'm very SORRY!
But in the same time, I would recommend Visual Novel Maker, a game development tool by Degica. It is because of this tool that I could create this visual novel completely on my own, while I don't have any coding experiences.
Also, I want to thank -INO and 苍亖(their sina microblog name),two artists who have drawn these character pictures. Thank you very much!”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The complete version will have more story lines than the current version.
However, because each character's story is individual, therefore players won't have trouble such as having to wait for the ending of a specific character's story. Currently all 12 stories are completed(but without English translation). Only Moran's line has been translated in English for now.

If you're interested about the stories which are currently in Chinese, you can view the documents with the Google Drive link https : // drive . google . com / drive / folders / 1geTRVPK0BCwHFaPbs8Hcf6XHh6bmQINK?usp=sharing

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“If you have any inquiries, please email me, my email address is [email protected]. (I can speak English btw. Feedbacks welcomed.)”

About This Game

I currently can't promise that there'll be an English version (for the complete game).


For now, there's only an English demo which covers the beginning of the game and Moran's line. The translation is done by myself and the translation is not beta-ed. You can choose the "VersionEnglish" branch to download the English demo.

Recommend you to check the integrity of game files if you have changed a branch:

Open Steam and click LIBRARY at the top. Right-click on the desired game from the left sidebar and select Properties. Click LOCAL FILES on your left. Now select Verify integrity of game files… at the bottom. Steam will now verify all your local files with its online database. The client will automatically replace any missing or corrupted files found on your system. Once the process has been completed, click Close.


I'm having some difficulties in my job, so for some time I probably won't be able to update the English translation. But if you want to give me some advice on grammar mistakes in this game, it's welcomed and please send me an email([email protected]).
If you want to help translate this game, you can also email me. However, I'm pretty unwilling to spend more money on this game, so (although I might be willing to give you some kind of reward) the reward won't be much.

Still, thank you very much for visiting this page!

If after auto update, you find bugs, please try uninstall and reinstall the game, thanks.

Because STEAM uses “file mapping rules” to partially update games, it will cause some errors to this game. Please uninstall and reinstall the game if you think the partial update creates bugs.

===

The Game of The Playful is a visual novel created by one person (characters are drew by outsourced artists). The engine used by this game is Visual Novel Maker.
In this visual novel, you'll play as the Heroine and experience twelve individual stories. In each story, you will establish either friendship or romantic relationships with a man. All twelve stories are independent from each other, so you'll be dating with only one person in one story.
