if you want to cry this is the game for you 1000/10😭😭😭😭😭
eakwjfgscbgtneurxfhwmkhengcujn I love this game so much I definitely think that the vanilla divorce fits better because theres no doubt from the story that both are at fault but I still had fun in the bitter route. Thank you for this beautiful game!!
i’ve never been married but thankfully this game has given me a proper example of what and what not to do in case i ever get divorced. thank u meiri and team for creating this game i cried 100/10 ^_^
happy to hear marley and divorcette have been educational 😌💞 thanks for playing!
Oh la la~ Easy.. my MC cheated on him everyday. Just like on the other ones in itch io yandere games.
we are ALL cheating on marley in unison !!!1!!1!!1!1!!1 :handshake emoj:
Imagine itch io husbando crossover.. all of them finding out MC was playing on them all along heh ಡ ͜ ʖ ಡ
WHY AM I CRYING OVER MY FAKE DIVORCE !!!! (10/10 love the game)
I can't bring myself to go the toxic route. I went for the amicable one and I started crying. Sometimes, when Marley acted out and went too deep into his feelings (making assumptions like me never loving him at all, cheating) + the happy-go-lucky, CONSTANTLY non-serious attitude, it reminded me of my ex-bf.
I wish my character didn't have to divorce Marley after they genuinely worked it out together, though I guess I understand. I feel like there could be more.
Have only just started the game but... Oh my god the Cats thing. I love that show sm, why must I lie to him :')
I'M CRYING NOW, THANK YOU (no, really, thank u. I love chat based games but omggghhghgg)
This game made me almost cry.... and the toxic choices reminded me of an ex toxic friend.... damn. (i NEED a non divorce route/ending- PLEASE IM BEGGING! He seems so caring and loving.... i need him :'( ) i LOVE how you portrayed well the negative emotions through text... like i could sense the angriness and sadness welling up from them, and i can see mc in the bitter route struggling to think straight bc of the strong emotions. Very well done.
i hope you are okay :D
I try to :') . Thank you kind friend, hope you're doing good too :3 <3
For lack of a better word, I really enjoyed this. I liked all the tension that came from having to negotiate the divorce and the acknowledgement that both these people just suck in partnership, but there were still happy times. Nice game!
Bro I want to swear a lot to you. This guys are just like my girlfriend and me. Now I am scared we had lots of bad arguements but still together. I don't want to end up like them ;(
i cried to both endings
This made me cry, great game, I loved it, this was very well written!! thanks for the experience! :) <3
ABRAÇOS VINDOS DE PORTUGALLLL <3 <3 <3
DIVAAAAAA
I love the way the writing was, especially how the discussion between the two about how they weren't communicating as well as they thought and that they have different wants. It made me tear up when they were talking about their good memories and how they still loved each other but just can't stay together in a marriage. I would love an alternative where they decide to discuss more, try to communicate better together and not end the marriage yet. Marley's so adorbs hehe, very lovable and I could understand his side of wanting to show only the good sides of himself to his partner. I did dread choosing a point of why Divorcette could have disliked Marley though ;-; I like his texting and the cats and all so it was tough choosing an option... Thank you for sharing this piece of work with us, I really enjoyed it!
It hurtsssss 😭😭😭
QUE JOGO LINDO!!! quase chorei, nao queria divorcio 💔
I've never been moved to tears by a game before, but this one genuinely touched me. As someone who's especially sensitive to themes of farewell, I FOUND MYSELF TRYING TO HOLD BACK TEARS BUT ENDED UP CRYING A LOT. I didn't know there's 2 endings until i read the description and.. WOW I GOT THE BITTER ONE.
Anyway.. great game! love it so much. Definitely not asking for..
*cough*
non-divorce route.LOVE IT!
No game like this has ever made me cry, but this one is clearly the exception! I loved every second playing it and replaying it. It hurt a lot to do the anxiety routes but I wanted to try the full experience! ❤️
I highly doubt they will make an alternative route where we can reconcile with marley But would you agree to a Spanish translation? I know what I'm asking is too much, but I'd love for there to be a Spanish translation! But if there isn't, it wouldn't be a problem. I would gladly play this game more than ten times again.
Thank you so much for playing! It means a lot to me and the team that the game touched you this much.
If a volunteeer translator is up for it, I’d love to have the game in Spanish as well! =)
I need a non-divorce route please
cried at this. everything just remind me of him. how he acts, how he type, how hes trying to hide his pain and is a hard worker, how hes the one whos always trying to make me happy. too bad i have attachment avoidant issues. i couldnt love him from the start.
ANYWAYSSSSS...
good stories, bring me flashback of me exactly bringing up the break up,, can you, *cough cough* non angst one one day?? thank you!!
sincerly, from stranger in the internet. xoxo
Okay I LOVED this so much, both routes were really fun to play. and not only did I have fun, I learned some things or two about the importance of communication, not bottling things up, accepting hard things and letting go of things that just won't last. Thank you for creating this game! <3
Glad to hear that our divorce game touched you somehow! Thanks for playing <3
i could never love a man without body hair
valid tbh
I DONT WANT TO DIVORCE HIM HES SO SWEET
I already fell in love with this man,I felt bad for having to divorce him </3
when I saw the title,I thought it would be a lighthearted joke game and didn’t expect a heartbreaking and well written game T_T
I felt so guilty, I had to sit and think about my decisions for about three hours. Not overexaggerating, this made me feel guilty and remorseful. I am hardly moved by emotions, especially negative ones. I love this game and I will be recommending everyone I know to play this. W game, I will be playing this again tomorrow.
Why do you feel guilty (ive not yet played the game)
You will soon see...
fucking cried so hard gods this is just. this is amazingly written, it rips your heart out and shoves it back in … this is a beautiful fucking game fuck im in such pain
Thank you so much for the compliment on the writing ;w; I’m happy that you enjoyed the game!
I don't think I've ever cried so hard at a game.
This genuinely made me SOB. I am not an emotional person. But this game just jabbed at something that made me cry. The sweet, bubbly man at the beginning and depending on which route you take; things turn so much. If I had the chance of playing this again for the first time, I would.
Man this hurts..
10/10 but would never want to feel like this again :D
i hate this in the best way possible made me sob
i criedw this i didnt want it to end
is that cove in ur pfp??? 🤩
I can't stop crying
no baby pls don’t divorce me haha you’re so sexy
i divorced my wife once
eww....
dawg what :sob:
Lmaoooo 😭
why is there a divorce simulator lmaooo
I didn't expect it to be so realistic about those emotions. I was sad that we have to divorce that adorable man at the beginning but as I continue I become to understand why we have to. I really love how the story unfolds. <3
CONGRATULATIONS this effectively made me nauseous AND called out my self-sabotaging tendencies thankssss *cries*
FRRRRRRRRR LIKE IT HITS CLOSE TO HOME- THE THEMES AND TOXICNESS AND NEGATIVE EMOTIONS... ITS TOO MUCH.
The way I would have INSTANTLY folded a day after the authentic conversation(╥﹏╥). I really wish they gave a shot ya know? it's the first time they're finally looking at each other transparently. Vulnerably and acknowledging their contribution to the player's prospect of divorce.
Even though they would have to address the limit of compromising needs again. With the newfound open communication (if the affection is still there) why not try the relationship again?
cry so hard, can’t stop. how can i stop crying in the middle of the night T_T
