it's not "playing" factorio..
it is "working on expanding my factory to allow producing goods needed for research and exploration faster in order to grow the profit of my factory exponentially".
Unfortunately people hates me putting this work on my resume or LinkedIn.

Realism and Dream
This is the best story from Nekopara in my opinion, putting realistic side and the struggle of having different race and Dream. Maple who almost gave up her dream to become a singer due to the way of society sees her as a catgirl is the real struggle. It really hits when an unnamed guest is being rude to the catgirls. It just feels realistic when you add a new race to the world where the other race (human) is more dominant in society. Back to the story, the way Kashou supports Maple by telling his story seems an expected thing to happen and pretty normal. What I see is Maple herself who put confidence into her dream (what a strong-minded lady/catgirl) after receiving so much supports from her (Minazuki) family, especially Cinnamon. The Cinnamon's feeling to allow Maple to have good enough time Maple's practice and not disturb her. It's a feeling when an important person in your life doing their best for their dream but you don't know what to do to help. And the way Maple and Cinnamon treat each other as best friends instead of sisters is unique yet that is the best part of their relationship leading them to achieve their first stage to perform their music.

Others

• Maple is the best catgirl.
  
• I was expecting a cutscene anime video when Maple starts singing but it didn't happen, too bad.
  
• I didn't expect the one who made Cinnamon lewd is actually Maple

Serious Part
The story feels fulfilling and heartwarming, focusing on family relationships and the struggle to catch your dream. You will be introduced to new characters, one of them is a mature version of a catgirl from Vol. 2 (catgirls surely grow fast). The catgirls' and Shigure's support towards Kashou is full of emotions, especially when it comes to Maple and Cinnamon part. The finale when Kashou's dad (Suhama) acknowledges Kashou and Kashou's mother (Madam Awayuki) explains everything the complicated relation between Kashou's dad and Kashou's sensei (Beignet) puts the story in fulfilling condition. I am curious how the complicated mom-son relationships between Suhama and Beignet will end. But in the end, the story about Kashou's dream and acknowledgment, and catgirls' and Shigure's support since first is well executed and feel complete.

Others

• I am sure you CANNOT hold yourself to pat Madam Awayuki.
  
• Way too hor**y compare to previous vols. Depends on your perspective, can be good, bad or both.
  
• Yes, there will be Vol. 5. Hopefully there will be a focus on Fraise story.

hope they make this as anime series..

7/10
+ Nice story
+ Cute art
- flash game, no steam support
- the choices don't really make a sense
- don't really like the main character Cantus

i don't know what to say.. this is fun.. xD
well, at least i laughed and had fun with this game..

i had some worries before playing this, start from main menu with big unused space with nothing special view on that. well, the first i got unique stuff, Azure is a cute loli with glasses. usually the girl like that is not, how to say, bad girl. i mean, she is not a mainstream character for me. glasses and loli but she does bad things in sociality. ah, how to say again, "bad girl". but with nice art she is being so cute. nah, i'm not lolicon. Sienna looks beautiful too. but, kinda weird when she found the ring and run away to contact HQ. i mean, just take it. well, that's one of the way to make a contact in the story. Yup, i really enjoying the story. and the background pictures are good enough.
