Okay, this is a hard one for me. Well, no matter how good a story can be, it will never be for everyone - and this one really isn't for me. That's hard because it's clear that the dev is trying hard to make a product for themselves and for the people that resonate with it, but maybe exactly because of that it will also severely put off people that do not resonate with it. Let's address a few points. First of all, if you have issues with either music or other languages being in the forefront of your story, then you should skip this. Music isn't really the flavor to the story here, it is the story. Beginning, middle and end to everything is about music - from gathering inspiration, to experiencing a sort of synesthesia, to crossing the lines between reality and memories through shared senses (through music) it's all here. And it's a lot. I went in obviously expecting music, I mean it's called "perfect pitch", but that's way over what I expected. Which backfired for me, but could be great for you. Now, to the story itself, it is at best porn writing and at worst annnoying melodrama. You're hired by the principal of a music school to basically fuck all of her students. Because that will activate their creative juices or some crap. I'd wager there's more to it, but that's the general gist of things. Now, that'd be fine by me - it's porn. The issue is that it's also taken seriously, like there's this girl that comes from an awful home (father was a pimp and her mother was a prostitute), she's incredibly rude to you at every turn, and you're forced to deal with this storyline though A LOT of events (including her assaulting you because of a bet). So the story overall sits in this weird place where I'm supposed to take it seriously but it's also nonsensical, and it just didn't work for me. Finally, I really didn't like the gameplay loop in terms of triggering the events. You don't really have a choice in this game, as you have to see all events in order to trigger the next stage of things. Thus, why have you try to figure out how to keep triggering all of them? If there's no real choice, make them all linked, I say. Or at the very least, make up a trigger system where it goes "you have an event to be unlocked in x location, go there". What it does instead is display different lists of events to be unlocked, which was just not helpful to me at all and very confusing because of the ui made to appear like music playlists. Anyway, I'm rather sad to have disliked this game so much because it's clearly a labor of love for the author. It just didn't vibe with me at all. I wish them the best, but maybe this review can further help with filtering through the intended audience here.

One of the best visual novels I have ever played, original in its way of telling a captivating plot that never misses a beat. If what you are looking for is a good story with a wide range of personalities and subplots, this is your game

This is one of the most elaborate audio-visual symphonies on this entire website, Koikatsu or not. The amount of love and care put into every aspect of this game is staggering, and it kills me that it doesn't get more traction, but it definitely isn't for everyone. The MC is a Gary Stu who all the girls worship, it's an extremely long read, and while the erotic content is few and far between, when it hits, it hits. Highly recommended if you're willing to put some work into it.

This game is just wow.....I mean it. It's deep and very underrated at this point. You start to feel for the girls and their situation. You may start out disliking some and then by the end, you are just in awe. I truly have enjoyed this game very much. Don't sleep on it.

Somehow some of the best writing , half the time. The other half is so dispicable it baffles all logic. How he acheived a precise 50% Perfect / 50% Abysmal balance is still being investigated. If glancing through reviews: CON - No Physical Contact Within First 20 Hours of playing. CON - Only 2 nude anything Within First 40 Hours of playing. CON - No Physical Contact, until Kiss-Rape at 60-Hours of playing. A more detailed explaination. Girl & Event GUI Pro - One of the most revolutionary Girl and Event Trackers I've ever seen. Con - Missing a Day of the Week, which is necessary in this game. We have a temperature though. The Good Half of the dialog. Some of the best anywhere around, even if your not into music. The Bad Half of the dialog. Some the worst in existance (and there's so much of it) Premise - You're an 18 year old Grammy nominated student, just like the rest of us. Premise - Your welcomed to join an all girls school by the Principal. There's at least3 seperate full on conversations with Girls saying "You shouldn't be conversing with any of your classmates!" At no point does the MC say "Oh okay. I'll just go hang out with one of my guy friends, Oh wait. There aren't any." Too many logical paradoxes to list. Through-out all this there's a heavy pro-feminist agenda going on here. And politics works great in porn games, right? COVID plot problems covered by other reveiwers. Attempting to be topical never works in an HGame. It's also not why anyones here. The reason Hollywood didn't touch it is because it makes your movie have a shelf life. A really short one, in which your asking, eventually "Why is everyone wearing masks?

I have never seen so much effort and heart put into a game of this kind. Words cannot even describe how impressive this game is, especially if you happen to have some musical background. All the terminology and ideas expressed in the musical dialogues are 100% legit. The painstaking lengths the dev goes through to draw the audience into the world of music performance is far and beyond what anyone else is doing. You can't fake the funk with this, this dev TRULY has a passion for this. Not just with taking care to educate the audience in the nuances of music performance or sharing bits of musical history but also displaying the CULTURE of musicians, especially marching band folks being the most talented group of weirdos you will ever meet. This game honestly raises the bar impossibly high for games of this type. I won't sit here and say it's perfect, some of the girls look kinda scuffed(Maddie in particular), but these flaws don't detract from the overall product in the least in my opinion. I URGE everyone to at least give this game a shot. It is a must play.

Really enoyed the game up until now. The music theme is interesting and you might even learn a thing or two! One disappointing issue regarding this, is one would expect a better music selection in such a game, but I understand this is only a work of love. The models are cute and the author added some quirky details, managing to make every character rather unique. There's a money system and love points, which I guess is useful for "endgame content" which is rather grindy but I guess it will get fixed later on. Definitely going to keep my eye on this game!

I played it and it's acceptable but doesn't evoke feelings for me. Leans way too hard on covid as a crutch it feels in some areas. Used beyond a plot device. Girls are alright none of them knock me off my feet. Story is just meh It can't hook me.
AnonZapp 2024-04-28
CLearly a work of love. The story is still quite short and it's limited in mechanics (as in, it's a run of the mill dating sim mechanics-wise apart from choosing which class to attend). But what story already exists, the characters within, even the backgrounds, are all unique and well thought out. It's a shame the dev is not accepting donations because this game warrants them. I can't wait to see what this looks like a few updates from now.
Jekzue 2024-01-20
Honestly a hidden gem. The story is interesting, the character's have unique and likable personalities. The interactions between the characters are enjoyable. Very much looking forward to future updates.

Despite what some other reviewers have said, I actually would say Perfect Pitch falls further from the "Famous Koikatsu VN" branch than a lot of games more clearly inspired by it. It mostly just shares the ideas of a school setting, denpa elements (though much lighter on the "horror" aspect), and sandbox-lite gameplay. The story picks up with the 18 year old protagonist, a musical prodigy who has performed around the world (seems to be loosely based on Jacob Collier), joining a (now formerly) all-girls music school in 2020. COVID is used as a plot device for problems faced by many of the characters (including the protagonist), and the school itself which is losing funding. The protagonist joins to escape from his hectic (and recently stressed due to parents being hospitalized) life. The school's premise for bringing the protagonist in is a bit contrived - the Head Mistress asks the protagonist to form strong and "intimate" relationships with as many of the girls as possible, which she believes will help them perform better for a big annual showcase where the school gets most of its donations. Not the most convincing of initial premises, but it's a harem game, so it is what it is, I guess. The writing is somewhat unique among most visual novels I've read. Dialogue from many (though not all) of the characters is what I'd describe as "flowery" on average, with lots of descriptive sentences and artistic terms thrown in - this is especially the case when the characters talk about their interests and passions, as well as many of the the music lesson scenes. Depending on the characters and scene though, it can be more standard conversational dialogue, or get more joke-y/meme-y. As someone who went to music school for a bit (and spent time around people who ultimately were much more passionate about it than I was), there are definitely some relatable moments in the game, especially around the classes/auditions/similar events. There are a lot of references you will get if you have had some musical training, or have delved into classical and/or jazz music in the past. I feel that some of this VN's charm may be lost if you don't have some level of musical background. The game has a bit of a slow start, but it does eventually find a comfortable groove once all the characters are introduced and their core personalities have been established. Progression is largely slice-of-life, with interest coming from learning more about the girls' dreams, fears, and other issues. Without spoiling too much, there is also a backdrop of figuring out what is going on with the denpa-type events the protagonist sometimes experiences. The models and renders are above average for Koikatsu - they avoid aliasing issues, but they tend to be a bit on the blurry side compared to the best-in-class Koikatsu VNs. The character designs are all very cute and distinct however, and the backgrounds and effects used are fairly unique and diverse. Pretty sure the other reviewer a few below mine just hates Koikatsu games in general, frankly the models in this game look quite a bit more mature than the typical VN inspired by "Famous Koikatsu VN". There aren't too many H-scenes yet, and they range from being quite unique and interesting (some of the heavier story event scenes), to being just basic (the repeatable events). Several that take place during story events are, like a lot of the writing, very colorful/flowery in their designs/situations. All the animations are just default Koikatsu, so nothing special there. As the name and premise of the story would imply, this is a very music-focused VN, and it's quite unique and well done. There is a bit of separation between standard background tracks (which are all solid, matching the tone of the scene, and aren't the super common/overused VN tracks), and music actually being played by the characters, which can range from performances, to listening to them practice. The latter can be interesting to listen to, but likely not to everyone's taste. The sandbox-lite gameplay is a mixed bag. The options available for a given time are based on a "class schedule". This means that there aren't too many visiting options for most times of day, and on average this actually makes it a bit easier to find and trigger new events. That said, it lacks hints, and the event menu is a bit difficult to navigate. Overall, I like the novel, and look forward to see where it goes, but it is a bit more of a hesitant recommendation than some - as mentioned above, some of the charm may be lost if you have no musical background.

Not your usual western style VN, this 2D Koikatsu VN is one you cannot appreciate without listening to the music. It shows some well-known tropes, but it was a very enjoyable experience (at least for me, those who don't like classical music/literature may have a different opinion).
Jnx 2022-11-21
I'm just gonna be honest with this, it feels gross. Like, hooray, you know about music terminology. But all the love interests look like adolescents, and the entire premise is "The headmistress wants you to groom them." And there are two other games about being a teacher this feels exactly like. ALSO, there's one really made screen, the computer, but then the rest of the game is default Renpy. And outside of the first intro, none of the girls even make an impression and you're immediately greeted by a scene where they're all together but you don't know who anyone is outside of the one with a southern drawl.
gregarwolf 2022-11-19
Very good so far, the character interactions are great and the MC is incredibly likeable. The author clearly has a story to tell, and while there are a couple of sex scenes so far, the writing comes first, which is excellent. The character designs are all good, there really isn't a bad pick in the bunch. Every character feels distinct and well-thought out, enough to where I want to know more about all of them. Leaning on COVID as a framing device may date the game at some point, but the author clearly has plans for a payoff in a future update. This game was absolutely written by someone who is a big fan of music in all of its forms.
van321 2022-11-17
Review as of v0.5: "A game about music, romance, and the covid-19 pandemic as a convenient plot device" does summarize this AVN up pretty well. I was pretty surprised to see five updates and no reviews, and then I played it. I can see why people would have just dropped it. I will be honest... the beginning is a slog, and the use of COVID hits you like a sledgehammer. Contrast that to, say, Now & Then, which played with the traditional zombie genre during the COVID era by evoking themes of isolation and the destruction of old norms. Get past the first hour, however, and it gets much better. It fits within that Lessons in Love/Sensei Overnight category of Koikatsu harem games organized around weekly schedules, a cast of LIs, and event triggers. Instead of a mentally broken teacher in Japan, you play a prodigy teenage musician brought into an all-girls music conservatory in rural Midwestern US by an eccentric Headmistress to act as a mentor/object of desire to her pupils of great potential. The stakes are... the conservatory is at risk of closing during the COVID era economy, and the last chance at survival is impressing a billionaire investor with a Spring Showcase of all the students. Over the course of the next few months, the MC attends classes with the star pupils in A-wing, and slowly but surely a few of them warm up to him more than others. The love interests don't fit the same anime archetypes as in aforementioned comparable AVNs, but a few of them are still one-dimensional this early on. But as typical from this "genre", most of the developed LIs have faced hardships in their lives, and much the romance involves the MC relating to them by listening, consoling, and giving his own background. The quality of dialogue writing is excellent, and I would be surprised and impressed if the dev is not a native English speaker. Unfortunately, the writing fails in two places: the MC, and the plot. The MC is a Gary Stu with no discernable flaws, and the Headmistress spends the entire AVN talking about how wonderful and talented he is. He is humble and recognizes how good he has it, but the lack of flaws ultimately makes him merely a vessel for the reader and not an interesting character to root for. When he speaks of his parents suffering in the early days of COVID, it falls flat. Speaking of COVID, you could completely remove all references to it and make it simply about living isolated in the middle of nowhere at a conservatory and the plot would be unaffected. As someone without musical talents, experiencing life among these young creatives is interesting, and constant reference to COVID feels pointless and does not seem to be relevant to anything moving forward in the plot. Within the character-driven elements of the plot, the romance is extremely well written, especially in the last two updates. The emotions of the LIs feel genuine and heartfelt, and I found myself rooting for quite a few of them. I was heavily concerned early on that it would become a catch 'em all harem game when a lewd scene popped up with a LI within the first 30 minutes, but the writing for that character since that event has been realistic within this world's logic. These are eccentric girls, with one boy, in the middle of nowhere, encouraged by a (somewhat creepy) eccentric Headmistress, but they are also inexperienced and anxious girls. Their actions reflect this reality, so progress toward lewd scenes is slow but purposeful, and lewd scenes are awkward when they occur, except when involving the more experienced more depraved staff members. Perhaps an artistic choice, perhaps a limitation of the dev, but some of the models are not very appealing. I suspect part of it is an attempt to make the girls appear less Japanese in the Koikatsu engine, but it has mixed results. In overall, I played this out of curiosity, but I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it. Its quality across all releases probably justifies 3 stars, but with the strength of the romance dialogue and the improvements in recent updates, I will give it 4 stars.
