Meh, I would comment but I can imagine all the good gay jokes are taken already.
In all seriousness though, it kinda feels like you missed an opportunity to advocate love and respect in general by being to blatant about gay relationships specifically. Instead of "Here's a penis, here's a vagina, now here's two penises ZOMG ARE YOU TOLERANT YET" I would've taken a more subtle approach along the lines of "Here's a human, here's another..."
But that's just my opinion. As for the gaming aspect, sadly a bit short and straightforward, it was obviously the least of your worries but a more interesting gameplay makes for a more immersive game, and a more immersive game makes for better conveyance of a message, if any.

5/5 Good game, the music was so relaxing and all in all a very relaxing/chill game, and it lets you think about very important things, especially how homosexual love is perfectly fine.

First level: Welp, this is going to be terribly heteronormative. Still, as long as it's a decent puzzle game ...
Third level: Oh, right. :)

Loved it, and the developer responses to comments have given me the biggest laugh in weeks. Well done on making such a simple game that still managed to get my attention.
It's all about the surprise rainbows!

Beautiful game! It made me cry, and I am not afraid to say that. The message did come off as a little heavy-handed, but meh, it's a personal expression, what should one expect? Lovely simple little game!

View all responses and sort them by rating. Then go to the last page, because there are the best Developer Responses! Kranggames, maybe make a Russian version of this game?
Haha, glad you like them ;D Unfortunately I probably won't be porting this to Russian, but at some point in the future I really want to port this to mobile and when I do, I'll try to localize it. Thanks! :)

@Lttlemoi Isn't it curious that something as "Heterophilia" appears on the list of paraphilias but nothing as "Homophilia does"? :D

The obstacles almost remind me of real life, but instead of just physical barriers, there are emotional and social ones too. Makes me kind of sad to think about those who got lost in love, even though there are so many solutions.
Yeah dude, there's obstacles absolutely everywhere - especially in your own head. Just keep persevering and try to surround yourself with amazing, loving people! ♥

I realized that the easiest way to get one person in the Love-Repository is not to think about that person, but to think about the others. I'm not sure whether or not you purposely did that or not, but I thought it was nice.

Great message, but the tone is somewhat... preachy, maybe? Simplistic? You're either preaching to the choir, in which case the message is somewhat dull and lacking in nuance, or you're trying to show people a new perspective, in which case you want to give them an actual reason to believe what you're saying. I hope you build on this to create something deeper and more powerful.

I'm not a jerk, nor do I want to seem like one. However, I think that using a game as such as a political ploy is unimaginative and inappropriate. Obviously many people will disagree with me, but those are all people who already would have disagreed with me. I can nearly guarantee that nobody changed their mind about homosexuality due to this game.
And to be clear, I do not hate homosexuals. I don't agree with it, but I am not a "hater" for lack of a better term. The game seemed like it could be somewhat interesting, but I won't finish because I am tired of everything lately being politicized. When I play a game, I simply want to find it entertaining. I don't want to feel like I'm being lectured in the process. This is an inappropriate medium by which to push views.
I don't know what's so political about it, more social than anything, but I can find absolutely no reason why games aren't a valid platform for pushing any views. If anything, they're a better platform than anything else! Check this shizz out, yo:

Overall, I enjoyed the game and respect the developer for having the guts to put out bold social commentary. The only recommendation I'd have is to keep the hearts closer together on the later levels. It can be visually disconcerting to try and watch all of them simultaneously (last level looks fine though). Makes me wish I had chamelon eyes.
