Perfect Love
A downloadable Love for Windows, macOS, and Linux
If no one could give you the love you craved... Then you would create someone who could. Wouldn't that be fun?
You were always obsessed with a specific love... not one advertised in romance novels or movies, but a love that consumes and corrupts... One of obsession and possession. No matter what you did, you could never find that love...
So you decided... why not make this perfect love instead?
A game that was suppose to be made for the Yandere Jam 2023, but I didn't have enough time to finish, so now it will be submitted for the Stained Red Yandere Jam.
There was nothing more you wanted than a perfect love. You tried time and time again to find this love, but it was all for naught- no one was close enough to this perfect love you created. So you decided... why not make them instead?
While walking around on campus, you notice someone being bullied... Milo Change - a student in one of the classes that you attended. Meek, obedient, gullible and most importantly, seemed to have a crush on you.
Don't worry Milo...you'll be made into what you were meant to be.

Dastish fantastish
cute game, got bored halfway since it's just different choices that turn our sweet shy milo into a talking manipulator or bad boy lmfao.
loved the little easter eggs and the hunt through code i had to go on lol. super fun to unlock the true ending and play through it. i wish there were much unstable mc troupes. tots recommend this game, finished it in a couple hours long sitting
i don't usually leave comments but i just have to gush about how i LOVED this game. i was pretty surprised that there aren't that many choices to make, but i really appreciate the simplicity and just how pivitol each choice is when it comes to unlocking each ending. i find that when playing other otome/vn's, while they might have a lot of dialogue options or choices, most of the time there isn't much of a variety in the overall outcome but i feel like all of the endings were truly unique in their own way and it made playing each route all the more enjoyable. i had a blast playing this and i did not stop until i got every ending, it's truly chef's kiss
I really LOVED the game, but I felt SO bad for Milo =(
Positives:
Excluding the character sprites, I like the style and art of this game.
The GUI is nice and the sound design is good too.
The premise is interesting, and the beginning of the game seemed promising.
Room for improvement:
I've only played one route so far, and after it I'm not sure whether I'll play any more. It feels more like sadistic wish-fulfillment than a compelling narrative. Don't get me wrong, I saw the warnings before playing and I have no problem with such themes. However, the execution fell flat for me. The main character doesn't really ever struggle, and I'm not saying she has to be a good person or even be morally grey, but to at least see her selfish acts occasionally backfire would have been more fun. Not that she has to lose in the end or be brought to justice, after all there are plenty of well-written stories where evil triumphs, but before she wins there should be some type of conflict that makes you question how things will play out. Maybe Milo's obsession could get out of hand past what she initially desires, after all she seems the type to want to be always in control; or maybe at some point she starts to find him annoying and when she tries to discard him like with her other boyfriends things don't go to plan.
Conclusion:
The game was entertaining enough and didn't feel long-winded, however for it to be more than a popcorn thriller or a dark romance fantasy it needs something more.
This was such a good game!! I felt so bad for Milo while playing through this though :((( poor guy
The game is sooo good, i got the burning ending at first
this is an extremely creative and well written game, one of the BEST yandere games! I feel so bad for Milo, but more so for Desmond, and ESPECIALLY for Ryan... the MC truly is despicable. the music / sfx is really good too!
My Friend say the draws are beautiful, the music is really nice that she could be study with it in the background and she likes the characters writing, but she wish... no, she DEMANDS... a happy ending for Milo and the protagonist torture, just only one, only one, she think that so childish but well.... With the posibility that could be happen (Seriously what a good music)
Эта игра великолепна. Не знаю, есть ли где-то в сети русификатор, но английский легко читается, а повествование затягивает. И то, что Ирис имеет свои личность, предысторию и в целом на голову тронутая вдвойне увеличивает интерес. Я не играю за бесхребетный овощ, а за человека, что прекрасно понимает что делает и к чему это приведёт, вау! Да и при первом прохождении сохранялось чувство, тревоги и напряжения, ибо что Ирис, что Майло не вызывают положительных эмоций, но при этом... и не сопереживать им трудно... В общем, пусть будут счастливы и никого пусть в свои игры не втягивают, и это будет лучшим исходом для всех, как я считаю
AMO EL JUEGO, pero realmente MC se paso de malvado, pero amo la tematica es precioso
the writing is not really my style but still, that felt like an acid trip. Some dialogues made no sense to me, maybe because of the translation? or the writing and some grammatical errors.
Thanks, this is terrifying
i had a very unique experience. i just downloaded and lauched this, and set my name as Mari. it said it has something special for me in the code and quit the game. i am not experienced at all at this kinda stuff, but i figured it out. i've been having fun scrolling and deciphering the secrets within it, when i finally came across what i was looking for. it had a link for whoever typed mari. i searched it. AND GOT RICK ROLLED!!!!!! all that time, invested, just to see that damn thumbnail after so long. it was amazing. i am now going to ACTUALLY play and see how this goes. thanks for the fun experience BEFORE i even start playing hehe (i recommend anyone look through the code as well, so many easter eggs)
THIS IS ABSOLUTLY AMAZING!! I have been waiting SO long for a horrible MC in a game, so this was perfect!! I honestly love Milo so much, definitely one of the best Yandere games i've ever played!! I've only gotten two endings so far, and both were beautiful!!
I absolutely loved this game! I have played quite a few yandere games, and this one is one of my favorites! I loved the art style and the endings
I also really liked the customizable parts, I don't see that very often in games lol
loved the eye cursor!
Okay so, I have play many MANY otome/visual novel games and I have to say.... this game just captured my heart, this was one of the best games I have ever play, I looove when developers do secret endings and easter eggs. This game is absolute peak of all yandere games and must be played by everyone!
I really enjoyed it and Im looking foward the future games!
This game is such a rollercoaster holy sht 10/10. I really like the artstyle and I love everything about Milo especially that lil dog and cat sounds he makes for each of his personalities/routes! I've got all of the endings (Perfect Killer and Beyond The Walls is my favorite!) but that perfect love ending, man.. poor Milo </3
The eye cursor is a nice touch, and the main menu with moving eyes gives off the impression of someone going through a mental struggle (noticed how it changed after wedding). I love the pencil theme as well. The MC is such a red flag, and I really feel bad for the victim. People in his situation, with his adoration and fragility, are easily taken advantage of. His mental instability, combined with the MC's methods, is intense. Things really flip, and honestly, I feel bad for Ryan (poor guy literally) and the people the MC used just to train him. It’s like watching someone unstable drag others down with them for the sake of this kind of love. I mean, yeah everyone have dark side even Milo, MC just give him a push (especially in violence) but he don't deserve to break like aaa. Anyway, I like the psychology here.
The background music fits perfectly—wait, is that "Close to You" by The Carpenters? The CGs are amazing (I cant find the gallery *sob*) and I love how the character's eyes change depending on your choices. It feels like the socializing and stalking routes (both endings) are even harsher than the brute route. I like the three versions of his character, but I still miss the innocent Milo—he was adorable. I'm speechless after the true ending... That crack moment hit me hard. I initially thought the image of his was just a design until I clicked on it. Is it only two though? The fourth wall (・o・;)
I still enjoyed it as a yandere fan <3 such a well made game ᯓᡣ𐭩 I love all the endings, though the Perfect killer and Burning is my favourite. Like Milo! That's insanely badass
I LOVED PLAYING THIS ITS SO AMAZING !! i am ACTUALLY obsessed with it like its not even FUNNY ITS SO AMAZING AAAAA 10/10 i LOVE manipulative milo sm omg
This game is great lol, I collected all the endings!!! I love how awful PC is, its great
i cannot wait to play this visual novel and i will let you know what i think after playing it MWEHHEHEHEHEH < 33
AAGHHH STOP IT ITS TOO GOOD AND CREEPY milo my beloved, so sweet and (forcefully) twisted BUT STILL LOVEABLE MUAA rlly wanna make some fanarts of both him and the MC, thank you a lot!!!!!!!!!! (cant wait to have the true ending)
I literally dug into the game code just because I wanted to see all the possible nicknames and HOLY HECK, that's a lot of customized responses.
Honestly I loved it, kinda makes sense you onyl end up in abusing eternal cycle, at the en, it’s your perfect love isn’t it?
Omg I love this so much! I'm super into these types of games recently specially with an evil mc, and I genuinely hope the creator makes more of these types of games! 😭🙏 This is just too good to be free, honestly. I don't usually comment o games, but I just really reeeaalllyyy love this one!!
Hii <3 I don't usually write comments but does anyone know about the secret message about the moon? I don't remember seeing a moon at all in the game or in the script..
my brothers name is Milo so it was kinda weird to play this, i kept reading the name with the american accent instead of the italian one to differentiate the names somehow lolol. wondeful game <33
Normally I dont leave reviews on games but I really cant help coming back to this one. I recommend this game to ANYONE. The story is incredibly interesting and well-thought out. The dialogue is SO engaging, not to mention the variety of art and different expressions/sound affects with new ones appearing throughout the story. I love the sketchy art style of the game, I LOVE the music, I LOVE Milo, and I love how long the game is, especially with all the different endings. My only complaint is that I cant erase my memory and play it again for the first time ;P
hello!! im sorry im really stupid how do i play/launch this game after downloading it on linux???
Milo is such a bbg i love him.I like how mc is not weak n innocent.I will gonna be only nice to him hehe.
Edit:My brother played too
This was great. I love that for once, the MC isn't helpless or innocent. I played through all the endings and oh.. Milo. More.
idc i love him
I just played every single ending I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!!!! The art style, the story, all of it. Amazing.
just got 100%, all secrets all hidden cutscenes + unused. I LOVE THIS GAMEEEEE
I dont usualy comment on any game but this one need to. I absolutly LOVED playing this, the artstyle, the music, the dialogues, everything was there to make you feel oppressed. I did all 8 endings + the secret one and it was a masterpiece. Cant wait for others updates
When I downloaded the game I finished it in one night.
SPOILER!!!!!!
Today I replayed it from start, and seeing it play out completely different gave me huge mind fuck from the 4th wall break/awareness of being morphed many times scared the shit out of me
BRAVO ON SUCH AN AMAZING GAME OMGGGGGG
Oh my, twisted love...
A perfect game for me~ 👀💕💕💕
