I picked this up in 2023, either free or extremely cheap. Honestly, I should’ve known better. I'm not usually into modern-day stories; I prefer fantasy, sci-fi, or historical settings. But I gave it a shot. After 66 minutes, I ended up alone. The achievement said 43% of players got the same ending. That should probably tell you something. I have no idea how I had 100% hearts and 100% hardworking stats with Logan, the main male love interest—and yet every time I called him to hang out (three different times), he told me to “lose his number” and I lost affection points. The game mechanics feel completely broken. There's no clarity on how your choices affect anything, and it’s hard to tell if the stat system actually means anything at all. Also? The main character is... kind of insufferable. A teenager, sure, but she lacks basic empathy and listening skills to a frustrating degree. Honestly, if I were Logan, I’d tell her to lose my number too

June Pinegar is forced to spend the summer working at her father’s quaint country café, far away from her urban home in New York City.
Will romance spark with the dutiful barista or friendship form with the bubbly cashier? Or perhaps she’ll mend the strained relationship between her and her quirky father.
One thing is certain: with each passing day, June is finding herself more and more charmed by the intoxicating mystique of the Southern town and its residents.
Corona Borealis is a heartwarming story that shows the lasting effects our lives are capable of having on others, as well as their effects on us. Rather than just providing the player with romance options, it aims to explore the depths of non-romantic relationships, too.

I've been playing for over an hour to try to trigger any kind of alternate ending/make progress in the game at all.. I basically sit there and click through the whole week where there are no choices, no meaningful cut scenes.. and your character is a stuck up B. They could have at least made you somewhat likable? Anyways you're supposed to be able to magically unlock a whole new character while you can only at most go up 3% in relationship with his sister per day, IF you get choice scenes with her. I played an entire run where my first choice scene after the first week was week 11 out of 12. Like, what is the point of making a game so short without making progress easy to achieve? It's not enjoyable. You also lose all your progress if you don't keep your character stress free, except she gets stressed out doing fun activities and work. So. This was a huge letdown.
