But adding the POV of a certain blue-haired guy is actually not the best idea. It's a big spoiler and interrupts the flow of the story. I blame my writing teacher (and studies) for my nitpicking on this, but it actually would have sounded better if you stuck to the MC's POV only, and let subtle hints of the stalking slip out now and then. (Like somehow he's getting you your favorite food or drink, or he happens to know your name even if you can't remember telling him, but he somehow have a logical explanation that makes sense but leaves you feeling just a little bit uneasy about it. Until close to the end you end up seeing his stalker-room with pictures and your stuff all over and you have to choose if you find it sweet or horribly creepy. ^_^)
I recommend Sebastian Dallarosa as a good case study for this. Particles of Reality is a great game in part because of him.
That said, the artwork is pretty good, and the guy is pretty cute. The game, so far, is pretty cute too.
The first ending doesn't make sense. If you are overly cautious at the start, wouldn't it be better to tie that into him coming into where you work later on, and try and worm his way into your heart?
After all, you'll be less and less suspicious of strangers the less of a stranger he is to you. And a yandere will not just give up.
A story loop with a small change in scene (assuming he'll show up at your work later) could fix that easily.
....why wouldn't you wish someone dead if they pester and annoy you? oO I'd love to see a choice in how to react to things in these games. The normal-person-reaction is so far from my own that it always irritate me. (I don't really blame the creator for this. I'm just exasperated with the MC always being so oversensitive.)
And if you invite Leu in and get his number, why can't you choose to invite him over later? It's not like he hasn't been there before. (Or must you trust him blindly from the start like an idiot for that to be an option?)
The second ending is equally weird. But I'm gonna chalk it up to the game being under development. You won't die from going back to bed, that's a guarantee.
Especially since every single choice seem to lead to an ending where it makes no sense there would be an end.
So essentially:
I think this has the potential to be a GREAT game IF it is developed more. (And the endings actually make sense.)
I can see how each ending could easily be either leading to different parts of the story, or looped into a part where avoid Leu in any form will just have him show up at your job instead.
(And a small note: If your building have a janitor, who has a key to your building, getting into someone else to, say, leave a flower as a xmass surprise, is ridiculously easy if you claim to be someone's friend and say you want to leave a gift. People are so guilable... ....on a side-note, that REALLY seem to creep the guy out, so... probably not smart to do in real life? ....again.... >_>; )
I'd love to see more of this game, once it gets a bit longer. ^_^
I finished the translation! I put the video on the bilibili site(【自汉化短篇|病娇女性向】你因暴雨无法回家,好心陌生人向你伸出援手——《Inclement Idée Fixe》汉化发布+实况_游戏实况) and put the url of the game on itch in the video synopsis. I put the Chinese version of the game on Baidu Netdiskbaidu and it's link is also in the video synopsis.
because of my limited English, I probably didn't translate it very well.😢 and because I'm not a famous uploader, the publicity is actually very limited. Sorry about that.😭
leumin is soooo cute!! can I try to translate this game into Chinese and share it on the Chinese website? My English is not very good, but I really want to share this game, he's so cute.... thanks for making such a great game QAQ
Oh!!! 🥺 You definitely can translate it, thank you for asking!! It makes me so happy to see people’s love for Leu, seriously. When you finish translating, could you let me know? I’m still trying to figure out how to add language options in my game- 🤔
I'm also learning how to go about translating games as I want to share some of my favorites(leu is so cute🥺).I actually just started working on it a few days ago, and based on the tutorials I've been studying, one of the easier ways I know of so far is to add
in the “screens.rpy” file (my English isn't very good and I'm not sure I'm expressing clearly what I mean😭), But I don't understand how it works at all because I'm a beginner.🤔As well as thank you for your permission, I love this game!🥺
AAA LEU IS SUCH A CUTIE! I would have preferred if he didn't make me unemployed.... But I can look past that! I really really hope to see the sequel soon! (soon= in the next years, please don't rush and take care of yourself lovely creator, but also don't drop the game or I will cry)

Very cute thus far.

Awww, I’m glad you think so!! 😌 I should be thanking you for playing and leaving such a sweet comment! Thank you, seriously!

Is the game still going to get updated? 'Cuz I can tell wout any doubts that I will miss that guy badly. Its been only an hour and I miss him deeply!
This particular game is complete, but I do intend to make a sequel! ^^
If you were to make a sequel I'd be so happy, I'd be willing to pay for it. I hope to see the sequel someday.
