I was thinking about this game today, the demo was so fun! Too bad it died, but nice while it lasted

Hello i just wanted you to know that i thought this ask was really cute and i appreciate it so much. Idk if any of the other admins still have this sideblog connected to their mains but im sure theyd appreciate it too.

We were probably to ambitious tbh and everyone had such busy lives at the time im not surprised it died. But the time we spent planning the game was so fun and we had so many great ideas its such a shame. I’d do it again in a heartbeat haha. THANK YOU

Uhm, guys? I gues you abandoned the project? No notice about you so far.

This project is officially dead for now. There are still people who’d like to pull this together but how possible is that? No idea :T - Niu

Hey guys! Are you okay? Is the project still continuing? Please don't tell me you're discontinuing the project! The demo was beautiful and I'm so looking forward to the final product, even though Free! anime had ended.... Hang in there!

Well, after the demo we haven't managed to produce anything... We had lots of plan changes and member changes which were really challenging. I think the year 2014 was very demanding for all of us, so we have kept the low profile with the game.

Hopefully we can kick this project back to its tracks next year! I'm personally looking forward for finishing this game. The challenge with such a big project with people all around the world is how to manage and supervise everything. 

Thank you for your support! We will try to do our best with this game.

any updates? c: just a suggestion, it'd be nice to see lil sneak peeks here and there as you guys work on the project

Well, this project has slowed down a lot. We don't have any material to share with you right now. I personally hope we can keep this project up - we haven't advanced at all within a year...

Hi, everyone! We hope you guys are doing okay. We’re sorry that we work really slow. Just letting you guys know, we’re not going anywhere and we’re still working on this project. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Anyway! Just as we promised before, we’ll announce a few things regarding our otoge. Here we go!

- Gameplay: It’s gonna be visual novel style where there’s a main story line but your choice and interactions with others can change the direction of the story or maybe become side elements to the main story line.

- Route: The game will focus on Karasuno and the eligible bachelors are Hinata Shouyou, Kageyama Tobio, Tanaka Ryuunosuke, Azumane Asahi, Nishinoya Yuu, Sawamura Daichi, Sugawara Koushi, Tsukishima Kei and Yamaguchi Tadashi.

- Story Line: We’re gonna give you a small spoiler about this. Basically, you’ll be playing as a girl who’s in newspaper club. Who knows if you can interview your bae and take his picture? (¬‿¬)

- Rating: T, just to be safe.

We won’t give you too many spoilers or it’s not gonna be fun anymore! 

Also, we need writers and programmers.

- For writers, we’re left with Sugawara, Asahi and Daichi’s routes and now we’re looking for three more writers, one for each route. 

- For programmers, we’re hoping that you’re familiar with Ren’Py or Joilly. 

If interested, please let us know by filling in the application form for the position of your choice.

> Application form for writers.

> Application form for programmers.

The application form will be closed on 22 October 2014, 11:59 PM, GMT +9 and we’ll announce the results on 25 October 2014. (❛ᴗ❛人)✧

Art by our lovely and talented artist xxvioxx and yay for blushing Kageyama! Thank you, Vio :)

Once again, we are a laid-back group. We have our own pace, since everybody’s got real life stuff to deal with, along with this project. Thank you for being patient with us. ;; Please read our FAQs if you want to know more about us and our ask box is always open! 

Please follow us and keep supporting us.

Thank you!

HI! um.... Im using a OS X. So I am downloaded the file, But when I try to open the file called " i_only_date_free " ( which I THINK thats the demo) It saids that the file is damaged and can't be opened (and i didn't delete any files) REALLY want to play the game :(((( plz help :]

Hi! Thanks for asking about this!

I am not 100% sure (cause I am on a windows computer myself and I can't check to make sure), but after unzipping the zip file, you should get this list of files:

if you clicked the one with the little pink-haired girl logo, you've got the right file.

Now: it seems OS X has a problem with running it, but all you need to do is run it as "administrator" or something like that.

If I remember right from that one time I opened this game on a mac, you do this by pressing cmd and then clicking the file (and selecting "run"?).

I hope this works.

For problems like these, please ask off anon so we can send the answer just to you!

Hi! I was wondering if you could tell me how far along the process you are! Thank you to everyone who is working so hard on this project!

We are very far behind from the original idea, as the setbacks have slowed everything down and caused major trouble for us. Nikki and Niuniente are doing their best to handle the whole team, but unfortunately they can’t work 24/7 with the game problems.

So far we have gotten all the needed team members so we will slowly start working with the game. But there’s still things we need to figure out.

The most challenging thing is that we all are scattered around the world and discussing takes time. 

[idatefree]

I was wondering, are you in need of anymore artists??

No we are not! If we are ever in need of any artists or writers, we will put up an announcement!

Thank you for inquiring though :)

[idatefree]

Inspired by that glorious gif: Will there be CGs including police uniforms? *crosses fingers hopefully*

haha, that'd a be a nice idea and it would probably be possible, but don't count on it, okay?

Announcement: Submission box CLOSED

Hi dear followers,

After receiving a rather disturbing submission in the midst of this whole 4chan wars thing that's going on, I've decided to close the submission box.

The ask box is still open for anyone who wants to contact us!

If you have any specific questions, please ask off anon so we can answer you without having to bother all the followers with an answer that's just for you.

~ Nikki

for the application, how much detail exactly do you need to go into for the nsfw scene?

For the application, please write the nsfw scene that shows your skills at writing one the best, a scene that will show us how well you can write nsfw. It can always be toned down.

How much detail exactly.. that's hard to say. In most of the applications we've gotten, it was very clear what was going on, without it getting dirty. Please keep your language neat.

I hope this helps a little. If you have more questions, please come off-anon so we can answer them privately.
