Sorry not finished

This game isn't finished yet due to a good amount of procrastination, procrastination against schoolwork, and lost morale. You can only play 1/2 of the first route, and it's pretty embarrassing because I'm pretty sure that most late games in the Secret Santa game jam are pretty high quality since there the developers had extra work time, on top of the regular jam time that they used. Sorry if this game's not as good as the rest of the games because I kept getting distracted.

The Story

It's Oaklest(hope that's not a slur that I haven't heard about)'s birthday party, and you're going to it. However, all of your friends want to bring something different to it. Getti and Tone want to bring a personal cake for Oaklest, Hucklebarry and his friends want to bring some paint for a famous artist, and Costu and Huck(i need to figure out an anagram for that one) want to bring a keyboard for some famous... K-pop.... musicians? Ok, I guess the story doesn't make a lot of sense, but you get the point. They each want you to come with them to help them deliver the gifts, and choice determines the adventure you will go on.
