Please Boost Me Over a 2.0!
A downloadable game
A chatsim featuring you- a struggling college student barely hanging onto merit based financial aid. Hoping to boost your horrible GPA- you decide to use your winter break to take an online management course.
Unfortunately, it seems you've been paired with the most incompatible group of people in existence to finish your final paper. A pair of scorned exes, an annoying troll, and you- an introvert with a crippling fear of confrontation.
With everyone procrastinating till the last second, you four scramble to put together a paper that’s somewhat coherent. Stay up late, beg others to do their parts, and find there’s more to each of you than what meets the eye.
~ You and your eccentric roommate
~ The confused senior that's lost without your help
~ The annoying sophomore that can't help but tease you.
~ The cheery junior that loves to complain to you.

sorry if im confused here is ganis route not available yet? either way i really enjoyed the other two routes, cant wait to see more!!:D
Hihi :D ! I’m glad you enjoyed Akira and Genesis’s routes!
To get Gani’s route you need to be a bit of an instigator in the first day. This is just off the top of my head but I believe the order is:
Ask Genesis why they didn’t do anything, popcorn, continuously ask about Gen and Akira’s relationship, reply to his messages with emoticons, complain about them to Rumi, woof!
You have to intentionally not get any other points with the other two, or try and get less points with them or else it may default to placing you in either of their routes
That was such a fun game! I'm really looking forward to the final version!! I loved the characters, their designs and personalities! Keep it up!!:D
kebekdbdkdhfkdhd I’m glad you liked all of our dysfunctional lil guys ;w; Thank you for your enjoyment, it means the most <3
WoahhhHHhhhh this game is so real, like it took me back to my PTSD pre-thesis assignment and my Communication design class, also how real each Li's personality is, too! I mean Gani be like as if my ADHD monster was real, and Akira be like as if my Autism monster was a human. lol
Gotta say at first I was kinda annoyed by Genesis often being snarky toward Akira, but after playing their route they were actually so relatable and the most reasonable among all of them (ofc being Asian's household make you easily angry at stuffs lol), plus their appearance kinda... yk unexpectedly my type///hehe
But srly they're rly so real that I can't even find words to exactly describe them, as a compliment!!! PLS I'm rly looking forward to the finished version!
AAA thank you thank you <3 !!! It was such a joy coming up with the concepts, personalities, and designs for each of our characters and I'm glad the effort was translated well :)
I'm glad you enjoyed Genesis's route! The whole team couldn't stop fawning over how pretty he turned out to be hehe
Omg!! This game is amazing!! I love Akira!! The confusion of not knowing technology reminds me of my teachers xD I love the game so far and I hope that the full game comes out with my support!! :3 I Can't wait :D
Akira is so grandpa core I'm in love the way the route turned out so far. Thank you so much for your support <3 I hope the full game is just as enjoyable :)
I AM SO HONOURED TO BE WORKING WITH THIS GAME AS THE CHARACTER DESIGINER 😭this game is amazing gosh
AAAA couldn't have done it without you <33
