According to the developer, the game is a semi-autobiographical visual novel. They advised that those who cannot afford it should not purchase the game. They also pointed out that the game’s playtime is under two hours and encouraged buyers to request a refund if they felt disappointed.
The Gamer who played the game described it as a collection of anecdotes from the developer's youth, calling the content rather ordinary. Many reviews on Steam have rated the game poorly, reflecting a lot of disappointment.

Bad games like this should be regulated.
It seems like the best plan is to finish it in under 2 hours and get a refund.
I think we’ll see more games like this in the future.
