With one year to prove to them that she's a capable adult who can make good decisions, she sets out her comedic journey of growth. She might even find some romance along the way...! "I Want to be an Idol" is a mix of stat-raiser and visual novel that allows you to create your own unique story for Itsuki. Explore Tokyo and forge deep relationships with those around you, or keep working hard towards your dream alone: the choice is in your hands!

About the game

When you open it, theres a man inside - but luckily, he comes with instructions! You have your own impressionable boyfriend. Its your duty to shape him into a proper person since hes actually a doll with no past exposure to people. However, this delivery wasnt meant for you. Will you fall in love with the person he turns out to be? Will you be able to keep him by your side?
And these are cuties we're raising funds to get out to ASAP...

Kickstarter Campaign

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1367486473/signed-and-sealed-with-a-kiss-romance-visual-novel? Firstly, we'd like to state that Kickstarter Backers will not get any sort of benefit over itch.io or Steam purchasers. There will be no exclusive updates or content, because that would obviously not be fair. We have lots of different tiers to offer, both with digital & physical goods, as well as physical-only tiers for those who've already bought the game elsewhere. If you'd like to support the campaign without pledging, we'd appreciate any & all social media shares you can offer! Thank you very much for your support!

Version 1.3 Update

Thank you for your patience! SSWK version 1.3 has been released. If you haven't played or bought the game yet, now is the perfect time to do so. Additionally, if you played the game in the past but didn't like the main character's personality, we'd be happy if you gave the game another try with one of the other three options--after all, this update was made for you! https://store.steampowered.com/app/933230/Signed_and_Sealed_With_a_Kiss/

Change log:

• 4 MC personality choices: this may affect dialogue, plot, and choice branches to varying degrees
• 4 new achievements
• Base Boyfriend can now follow any career to completion
• 1 additional random event for each personality (note: must have mature content enabled)
• Additional choices added to several branches
• New scene variations based on your & BF's names, and some other minor factors
• Sub/dom options for sexy scenes (note that these are not always 1-to-1 variations; we focused on matching the options to the pre-existing CGs)
• New choice branches allowing you to stop sexy encounters at certain points
• ~2-5 hours total of additional content added to the game
• Several missing/broken pronoun variables have been fixed
• Many, many typo & grammar fixes
• Many reworded/rewritten lines for better flow and/or clearer meanings
• Phone graphic while making various phone calls
• Color-coded daily diary choices
• More SFX, screen shakes, etc. added to some scenes
• Regular text color changed to hopefully be more easily readable

With the size of this update, we expect that there will be missed bugs & typos, and we'd appreciate any user reports on these. We expect to release at least 1 "clean-up" patch for this update by the end of next week, including fixing up a couple of extra text-related changes we wanted to include but didn't have enough time for, so any minor fixes will be rolled into that. We also expect that there will be additional dialogue variations added for MC personalities over time, for the places we felt we didn't have enough time to properly flesh out our ideas.

Kickstarter Campaign

Wed also like to announce that well be holding a fairly basic, straightforward Kickstarter campaign for SSWK starting on May 18th or 19th. Wed like to raise the funds to hire assistant writers to speed up the process of making the necessary compatibility changes to the Expansion Pack so we can release it ASAP, without the huge delays 1.3 faced due to the game's structural changes. * If you've already purchased the game, there's no particular benefit to ordering it again on Kickstarter -- they will not be getting any exclusive content, although we will have some returning & brand-new physical goods available there. However, we would greatly appreciate any shares about the campaign on social media once it launches. In the meantime, if youd like to show your support, you can follow the campaign right here! Thank you! * Talking as myself for this explanation: SSWK has essentially been a passion project. Even one year after launch, I am still footing development costs out-of-pocket because of the immense size of the project and comparatively low purchase price. The idea behind the project was always to be an accessible one, so I do not regret pricing it as such, even now. I have /personally/ still not seen a penny for my work and the countless hours I've put into the project due to this, as well, however -- and once SSWK itself is done, we have a previously promised spin-off that will require development. So, even if asking for additional funding this late in development is not a perfect solution, I would highly appreciate your understanding. Thank you.

Hi, guys! This is our last major update for MLC before the holidays. Our developer will be on vacation until after New Years. We will still be here to fix any major bugs in the meantime, however. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1150070/Mizari_Loves_Company/ Changelog:

• Mimi Chapter 1 + 2 unlocked - Some characters may lack voices. This is because were in the process of recording custom voices for them since we thought giving them generic NPC voices would be distracting. - Some characters may have placeholder generic sprites. These will be fixed for next time.
• New feature: Statistics Page - In-game, you may now check out how much affection you have with each character, as well as how many of their endings youve unlocked and whether or not youve seen their post-credits scene. You can also check your grand total of unlocked endings.
• Anjas post-credits scene has been given an additional condition to unlock. It no longer automatically plays after getting the Good Ending. You must now break the 15 affection point threshold for it to play.
• Anjas Route bad endings and epilogue have been added to the Scene Replay function. - If youve previously viewed Anjas epilogue, you will need to view it from start to finish one more time for it to appear in Scene Replay. You can use the Text Skip function for this, however.
• Misc. small visual glitches have been fixed
• A huge amount of typo/grammar/plot/wording fixes for Anjas Route. Mostly the latter, of course. We went through and smoothed out + clarified a lot of language so it would flow better.
• Small additional scene if youve gone through with Anjas first intimate encounter.
