I can't reach the good ending. Can somebody help me? 
This game is amazing, the art, the plot, looks like it was made by the same creators of the show. Congratullations!

Hello! We glad you like our game! Good ending depends on Ada Lovelace dating sim. If you are nice to her and do not use cheap pickup phrases, Alexander Graham Bell will be able to save you and the science mobile. Then you'll see what will happen :)

I have made this account just to say thank you for your game and work! It must have taken you lots of efforts and time, but it was worth it. The game design is just wonderful, the script makes me wonder how you could even create such an incredible story! And I fell in love with music, it suits all game situations perfectly! If I had to describe your game with only one word I would probably say "ineffable". I've reached all endings and I love them all. Thanks for the opportunity to play your game!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We really appreciate it. We’re so happy you like our game!

If you’re interested in Easter eggs and jokes we hid in the game, check out my Stories on Insta: @lily__or. I’ll post many of them in the coming days

I finished the game in 3 days and omigosh, kudos to the devs! The flow of music was great and really set the atmosphere! Dialogue was a bit clunky at first but it suddenly really ramped up in the middle towards the end and I enjoyed it so much! Managed to get around 5 endings but I think there's still one more I haven't unlocked in the gallery! Really an enjoyable and heartwarming game that explores themes of time travel tinged with a hint of sadness, family, growing up and love. Illustrations were spot on and the writing had a lot of depth. When I got the good ending, I smiled because yess, it fits just right! The bad endings were hilariously dark and made me chuckle. Hoping to see more from you guys soon! 

Thank you so much for such long and detailed review! This game was originally  written in Russian and translated to English by Russians. English isn't our mother tongue, so we understand why some dialogues seem a bit clunky. We'll work on that.

Thanks again for playing! :)

hey you're doing a great job! It was a really detailed game with plenty of nods to the original series any fan would pick up on and love. :D Congrats again!

How did you get the good ending? Ive been tried everything, and it all seems to end the same?

Edit: Manged to get the good ending just after posting this comment, good game.

Thank you! We’re glad you finally got a happy end :)

I saw this as google news and thought SSF meant solo-self-found (Path of Exile special league) lol... I dont like sim games tho, too bad :(
