I like the fact you need to unlock "hikikomori" ending first before unloking "touch some grass sage" ending.

How the heck do you get the Coconut ending?

Nvm I got it. For anyone wondering here's how (at least how I got it):

Just do one week of any Passion (Art, Dancing, Gardening, or Fighting/The Dojo), and spend time with Angie, Delora, Maka, or Bea. The next three weeks, stay at home. And spend time with yourself. And Coconut. This should trigger the ending. 

I adore this game!! Currently at 19 endings out of 23 and stumped on how to get the last four. I'm excited to figure them out though.

For a free game, you're spoiled with a lot of freedom! I think choosing not to have dialogue options was a smart choice, because it's more fun to explore each of Cici's interests and see how you can balance them.

One of those games that leaves you wanting more. It's so fun seeing all the different background mermaid designs and learning more about their culture. I wish the game had a bit more time to let you explore different parts of their town! I'd love to see this setting revisited someday. 

Especially neat is how gardening works, with the anemone's being judged based on the shape and the types of fish living inside them. I wish the gardening route had more cool anemone facts! It's inspired me to look them up myself though!

I disagree with other reviews I've seen about Angie's route. She reeks of tortured artist, so I can understand why that's off-putting to some people. There's nothing like a deadline to make you go, "dang, what am I doing with my life??" It's understandable that she's going through a rough patch the month before a major art competition. Her dialogue comes off as casual rather than infantile to me.

Maybe I'm biased because her sprites are so damn pretty >.<

The dreamer ending was much appreciated since I'm in a similar spot. You gotta figure out your dreams before you can chase them! It's bittersweet that she hasn't found a steady passion yet, but with her peppy disposition, you know she's going to bounce back 10x stronger for the next year.

Delora is best girl. Thx xoxo

I finally got all the endings (on Android the color scheme is easier to read than on desktop for some reason).  I utterly love all the characters.  I also enjoyed the art collection PDF.  

MINOR SPOILER WARNING:

When I first saw Cici's color scheme I thought it might be a hint that she is trans.  I was a little disappointed that that information wasn't revealed in any of the endings or in the art collection.  Maybe it doesn't actually make sense to feel dissapointed, because the game doesn't actually say Cici's trans so I shouldn't have expected her to be.  My response is probably irrational.

Even so I really enjoyed Bea's reveal.  

I got 24 out of 23 endings, don't know how it's possible either.. but I had fun collecting all of the endings, outfits, and the events :D

I just started the game but I am seriously having trouble seeing in it, because the background is so light, and the text is also light.  I would really prefer an option to make the background darker.  Does such an option already exist in-game and I just can't find it?

Because I did the Angie romance first, I thought all the characters were children, haha. Possibly because the story, narration, and dialogue were infantile; the characters are young adults yet they were written like children, for some reason. But that only applies to the Angie romance. The rest of the game is quite fun and doesn't read like that. Not that there's anything wrong with a childish game for baby gays, by the way.

The art is adorable. And the message of “it’s hard at first, but you should cherish small victories and never give up on your dreams, and age is just a number if what you intend is to follow a passion” is an ageless one.  

(spoilers below)

However, it's kind of odd how the game tries to pass the Hikikomori ending as valid in its own way, even though it's very sad if one has already seen the other endings where Cici leads a more fulfilling life than being, uh... fandom famous on the internet.  

I loved the Multi-Talented Ending and Squad Ending. It was nice seeing a friendship ending that warms the heart just as much as a romantic one.  

Love Interest Ranking (because why not):  

Bea. BEA? MORE LIKE BAE. It’s the romance that felt the most natural, too. I love how she has “manly” interests. As a non-binary person, I understand how people assume just because you enjoy some things that could be interpreted as typical of the gender you were coercively assigned at birth then your gender identity is a lie. I like she doesn’t have to be this perfect picture of femininity so that her gender/womanhood is validated. I related so much to this character, especially when it comes to her drive of being the best because if not then you must go back home as a loser to your abusive family. She steals the show, to be honest. I love her.

Maka. BUFF SHARK GIRLFRIEND!

Delora. Sugar Momma!

Angie is last because I guess I’m not a fan of the insecure love interest? Doing all the emotional labour in a relationship, propping up someone who would be better speaking to a therapist isn’t really what I’d call #relationshipgoals.

Hiya, hope you are well. I was thinking about doing a Let's Play of this game on Youtube. Would that be OK with you? x 

as someone commented before, there's no spanish version

im a latin american spanish speaker, and i really loved the game, i'd volunteer to help translate !! :D

Awesome game!!! I really loved Bea!

Oh and a question: will there be a sequel to this? I'd like to know what happens after the passion sage ending!

(How is your day?)

where is the spanish version? :(

this game is beautiful! the art is so soothing, and I just love the characters!

This game was so cute and fun! I love the diversity between the characters. I've got to say, I think Angie was my favorite. She's a insecure, sensitive cutie who also love drawing, and I can relate to all of that. I love the design of game too. It made it interesting and kept my attention the whole time. Overal, THIS GAME IS AMAZING.

I really loved the game. My favourite characters are Bea and Angie including Cici of course hehe. Well done! <3

At first, I thought that these were 14 year olds than 24 year olds, looking at the cover. I decided to play and got 21 endings. I spent a while trying to get the last 2. But this game is good. I really approve.

This game is amazing!! But I do need help. I have 22 out of 23 endings and i need tips to get the last one

I have: artist/ultimate artist, gardener/ultimate gardener, fighter/ultimate fighter, dancer/ultimate dancer, angie/Angie friend, bea/bea friend, dolores/dolores friend, maka/maka friend, squad, cici, coconut, hikikomori, dreamer, and multi-talented

I appreciate any help in advance 🖤

This game was charming, bittersweet, lovable, and heartwarming <3 I loved all the endings and all the different choices. The events were clever and I could see how much work was put into this game (I can't imagine working on it alone omg). Thank you guys for this <3

This was adorable! I loved watching all of the characters' arcs unfold, especially with your awesome soundtrack in the background. I've played for a few hours, and I've somehow ended up with 24/23 endings you sneaky little sea bunnies.

The best character is obviously Coconut, but if I had to pick a favorite merperson, it'd be Bea. She's just so energetic and cute, and I liked how you integrated cuttlefish biology in this world as a sort of cultural thing about gender.

This is such a cute game! :D Thanks so much for making this, omgg <3

this was soooo cute and so much fun!!

where do i find myself a real-life Maka??

I have now Delora's Route: 

Maka is my favorite. Freakin' adorable, oh my god.

I was feeling really bad when I wanted to try one of the many itchio games i downloaded to change my mind

I started Mermaid Splash because the esthetic was really apeling, and I did the Angie route. This is soooooooooo adorable, so well written, the visual style is so cool, now i feel amazing, and i'm motivated. 

Idc if i sound dumb but yeah, it made me go back to this page and i bough the game (first time i do that)

Support the games you love !

Thanks for your work!!

I loved this game very much. I probably spent more than 2-3 hours playing it, to be honest. 

My favorite girl would have to be Angie (prob because she's the one I went with first XD) but also because I was curious about what that thing on her mouth was.  I liked Maka's raw passion for gardening, it was too cute. 

But all of them have their appeal! Especially their visual design. None of them looked the same, which I liked a lot! 

Their colors were so pretty, and they were just so much fun to look at! I loved the many CGs during the events! Everything was well-drawn, and well-colored! The writing was of excellent quality too, and very fun to read! All in all, an excellent game!

I can´t install it

oh wow I just got the game, and I’ve spent two hours on it already! And three outfits! I wish I had the cash to help out the creators! Anyway I wish there was more of this! Anyway I’m super tempted to write some fanfics, but I’d like to ask if I can do that before I do!

sounds cute but idk if i should get it

Nice to see different-looking characters in VN
