Fall in love with five unique characters, each with their own charm!

An aloof loner that borders on unsociable, but an excellent bodyguard in the field. Despite being a childhood friend of yours, he doesn't seem comfortable with you around.

The young but capable head of the rival company, 'Haeryang Securities'. Both gentle and ruthless at will, he is a foe to be reckoned with.

A playful and suave bodyguard with soft but powerful leadership. You've come to accept his free spirit, but with that he'd at least wear a tie to work.

A capable crime investigator, set out to create a world without injustice. He used to give you private lessons, but that was a long time ago.

A gullible bodyguard working for a shady security agency, getting ripped off on a daily basis. Maybe you should help him out?

To prevent story spoilers, we'd like to ask you to limit streams to content up to Affection LV 1 ~ 2 for each character!
Kindly include 'Early Access' in your title and a link to our Steam page.

[i]“I’m sorry, was I holding your hands for too long?”[/i] Being walked home by my date, that one really got me. I was puzzled by that cuteness. Just the day before, I had a fantastic moment with Seha, analysing security vulnerabilities together in the hotel lobby. It was a cute and natural flow of conversation and flirting, making you almost addicted to grinding ideas together as you watch him charmingly sip his coffee. As you will already know, the pixel-art atmosphere is absolutely awesome. So, with two nice men to date, I seem to have a problem now… Alongside the ongoing implementation of collective moments, the game is becoming more and more enjoyable. Since there are still unimplemented parts, e.g. in the dating loop and relating to daily activities, and only the early character stories have been implemented and released to the players so far, I recommend adding this cosy game to your Wishlist and keeping an eye on its development to see when the right time is for you to join in. The full release is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026. I myself am following the development with great anticipation and look forward to every new feature along the way.

รออัพเดทค่ะ ชอบมากๆ รีบๆอัพเดทมาเยอะๆนะคะ
我喜欢这个游戏,现在上了一天班回来立马打开!太期待正式版了,BGM很动听,我也会在各种与游戏相应的场景下听对应的bgm,就好像自己身边正在发生这些事情,很好的游戏让我逃避苦闷的现实,世赫各方面都太帅了,官方更新那个世赫抱着女主哭的那个CG真的好想知道剧情!!!求求快正式版
怎么说呢 游戏立绘好看的很 真喜欢这款的 配音也很好 除了这两个几乎全是缺点 从交互来说就很恶心 我跟喜欢的角色刷好感 他刷着刷着人没了 瞬移去别的街区了 我还得打车过去!咪的天!然后他还会跟我说了一句话就开始跑 他跑我追 我是什么洪水猛兽吗?我第一次见到这种乙游!!! 然后这个地图也很迷 你看这个人在这里 进去这个图里有的全部建筑就是没找到这个人在哪里 约会更是幽默 原来我们约好的是周日么?一点提示没有 我放了鸽子才知道的还得回档 约好10点还得我切图到另一个图再回来 才能见到我的约会对象 求你了 这么招笑对得起这个价钱吗?
Had fun
Game incomplete and abandoned. No update in almost a year and no communication.
Very very good game, need more seha

官方很用心,從EA到現在改了很多東西,雖然一開始EA的時候讓人有點憂心但現在已經是一個很值得期許的佳作了,填寫回饋表單也很快就得到回覆,期待遊戲可以越變越好+正式版上線🥰
