If My Heart Had Wings

You know, I'm something of a glider specialist myself. (Kotori best girl)

This is a really well-written VN, truly, especially if you play with the restoration patch, and the cast is great... However, the common route bored me to tears, as it's mostly uninteresting filler and fun factoids about gliders. and the routes aren't really worth the payoff of trudging through the main story to get to unless you REALLY like gliders and planes. If you do like this kinda thing however, then download the restoration patch because the Moenovel translation is cheeks.

I played with a translation patch, im not sure how bad it is without that (IMHHW flight diary seemed fine). personally, i LOVED it! starts good and ends good. I think the art is beautiful and the soundtrack is also amazing. It's a really motivational/inspirational story. although most the events that happen are very unrealistic, it still feels real and applicable to real life. 10/10

Love the game but this Steam version has a botched, nonsensical and frustrating translation that needs to be patched by external apps, otherwise routes like Ageha's one become really cringeworthy. And for the SteamDeck/SteamOS user this process of patching up the game becomes excruciating as you need to do a lot of shenanigans and pray for it to work and not mess up things. DON'T BUY IF YOU HAVE STEAM DECK/STEAM OS. For Windows users is not a big deal.

If you want to have a charming anime come to life on your gaming machine, this is the VN for you. The characters are interesting and 3-dimensional (figuratively). and the storytelling carries the plot smoothly forward, drawing the player onward into discovery of more subtlety and complexity as you live through the events with our characters.
