AH! loved it so much, fell in love with stan ALL over again- especially when we act as a ring bearer for Mabel
DO A SECOND PART OF THE GAME ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗
Why can't I play it only says download
its because your trying to play it on mobile, it can only be played through Windows, Mac, and Linux.
I came here because the art looked pretty incredible, and my suspisions have been confirmed. Amazing game, although I will admit I did not expect it to escalate so quickly from monster-hunting with Ford to politely escape Mabel's... uh... stuff.
I fall at the feet of the author of this game
it just said ‘inappropriate file type or format’ and wouldn’t let me play the game.
okay… I tried to play it but I realized NO MOBILE 😫😫 so… if you see my comment, PLEASE DO MOBILEEEE
and I can't believe at all dipper is in the game I felt like I am a character form gravity falls and also creator of this game this is the most fun dating sim
Gh0stV4mp 82m I swear if u just say that in another it like this game u 100% an attention seaker
'i haven't played this game' yet have the confidence to judge us, LOLLL
I personally think this game is disgusting.
This is my opinion, You play the game and have your opinions.
I never played it, but I find dating GRUNKLE STAN disgusting!
Please don't hate me or think I'm hating on the creators, that was only a opinion.
you do you.
I was reading that minding your business was free and improves your quality of life.
You called the game disgusting and then asked people not to think you're hating on the creators? Really?
If this game isn't one you would like to play, that's totally fine, but what's the point in coming here to say that? You want attention or what?
The creators put effort into making this game, you should be respectful and keep your opinions to yourself.
you could've just said nothing at all tbh.
The way u literally went out of ur way to find this page and type this. U could have just not said anything and kept scrolling but nah u specifically chose to come on here and voice that u think this passion project that the creators obviously put a ton of work into is disgusting
I have loved every moment playing this game. It's so well crafted, from the storytelling, to the accuracy of the character writing, to the gorgeous art and sprites! This is the gold standard for fan games. I felt like it was made by the GF team themselves, it's so professional and clean and polished. Well done, my friend, a round of uproarious applause to you!
I NEED MORE!! Definitely agree with Wicket- that Ford's route felt a little empty compared to Stan's (that might just be because i played Stan's route first tho), but both were wonderful and felt pretty accurate to the characters
Bro i cant play this on my browser
for people saying how to play it in android use joiplay emulator
Please... Android... 🥺
IM SOBBING WHY WONT IT WORK ON CHROMEBOOK
I KNOW RIGHT? T^T
Plsss make a android version 😭😭😭
(I'm not good in english so i'll write in spanish) Oh Dios mío! Es una de las novelas visuales más buenas que he jugado en la vida! La verdad no sabía que podía sentir algo por Ford o Stan hasta que jugué esto. En serio, amé todo: el guión, los personajes, las ilustraciones, el background; todo es como una obra de arte. Aunque me hubiera gustado que en la ruta de Ford hubiera algo con un poquito más de ✨spice✨, como en la ruta de Stan tal vez? Y definitivamente me encantaría una secuela para saber hasta dónde llegó la relación con cada uno de ellos, y pasar un momento lindo y sin interrupciones inesperadas hahahaha.
Muy buen trabajo y, aunque no todo sea de GF, ¡definitivamente quiero ver más de su contenido!🩷🩷🩷🩷
I need this on android
GRUNKLE STUNKLE WINS THE FUNKLE BUNKLE
help I cant even get into it ive tried on my chromebook and ipad 😭
Maybe try iphone or macbook or Microsoft computer.
I loved this so much actually. It was great on stan's part but very empty-ish on Ford's part. I wish there was like a sequel or one dedicated all to stan and one all to ford. I really loved this and I cannot express how much I enjoyed it. Please make more or something. it doesn't have to be this week, or this month, or even this year, but I really want more. If you don't wanna make more.. okay I guess. I'll be sad, yeah, but I guess I'll just go make more bots on c.ai.
Thank you for this amazing game. I appreciate it and it definitely earned a follow. I'd tip but I have no cash :3
thank you to my classmate for introducing me to this masterpiece
android version when 🙏🙏🙏
what a fu is that
plz make a CROME OS one plz
know what ? i will try and see how it is,i am lowkey excited
Need this on mobile DESP
I know this is probably PG but just to be safe is there anything particularly risque in this game? My mom is a huge GF fan and I want to play it with her :)
Not really unless you get to the end of the Stan Route, and even that isn't TOO bad. Ford's is completely harmless though! :)
make an iOS version please :(
fr living out my wattpad childhood dreams right now. more... MORE!!!
Accidentally fueled my 50/50 on the fence crush on Stanley Pines. Now I have a 100/100 crush on Stanley Pines. I will be suing and losing.
