Player Comments on are you happy with your choices?
It was decent. Not particularly special, but it wasn’t a waste of time either
.
Some minor spoilers below.
The info dump at the beginning depending on what character was chosen was pointless. Take the ‘easy’ choice as an example. It states some character traits, friends and family, and ends with a message on how none of that really matters, because the only important thing is beauty standards. It would engage the reader more to have a scene where the main character speaks to their friends and family, adding an opportunity to discuss the bullying at school and need to fit in, and those previously mentioned character traits are shown, not told.
A lot of choices are fake. On some occasions, no matter what you choose, you’re forced to pick the choice the author wants you to pick. This is a game about consequences in an unfair world, it really would make sense to have actual consequences to your choices.
Word choice and sentence structure was nicely varied, and the amount of detail was pretty good in most places, the ‘hard’ path being the best. It didn’t focus too much on unimportant details but didn’t end up just being a summary either.
I had an issue with the endings, they felt somewhat like a summary. Though that’s forgivable because of how much information had to be packed into them.
The title could be better, there’s nothing that distinguishes it from others. Almost every storygame on this website is about choices, and if you’re not happy with them, there’s a back button.
In the end, it did manage to convey the message about beauty standards it set out to convey. Good job.

I really liked the message that you tried to convey with this. I couldn't personally relate with the characters, but I still understood their plight, as it could be quite hard to improve yourself to meet the standards that is expected of you.
All in all, I feel that you did a rather good job with this story :)

Good writing, made me feel like I was in the shoes of these people. Although short length is often a problem, I didn't really think it was here. You could have made our choices have deeper affects/consequences, but nonetheless this is a fairly okay game on itself with realistic problems, ways to deal with them, and outcomes for our choices. 4/8

Good game! Short and sweet. I learned some stuff about the Indian beauty industry that I didn't know before. Ignore whoever adf is; they're probably some thirteen-year-old who watches too much YouTube and thinks that racism doesn't exist.

This was very realistic and it made me feel as If I was in the situation myself. It had reasonable choices and had nothing that someone wouldn't do in real life, and I really liked the message you were conveying with this. I'm looking forward to reading more of your works! :D

The story was interesting, and you managed to show pretty well how beauty standards have an impact on three very different people. I feel like you could have added more depth to the characters, and fleshed them out a little bit more but other than that I definitely found it interesting.

The stories are really well developed, and I like how in the last story, the author recognizes that sometimes it isn't possible for one person to overcome beauty standards completely and left it kind of open-ended.Very creative!

I quite liked the stories, short and snappy but with meaningful endings which make sense.
Good grammar and spelling too.
For a higher rating I would recommend perhaps makling a slightly longer version.

Pretty good game, if a little short. I like how there is no way to circumvent the 'hard' choice, and I like how there are three different stories in one game. if you made it longer, it would be better. Great writing
