I've just finished the game and upon looking for posts about it, I learnt that it was released on my birthday in 2021... Really, what a coincidence, because I'm almost at the same place as Mina at the start of the game. I keep grieving about the past we shared... This game is very special to me, not only because I can see myself in Mina but also because it was released on the most important day of my life, like it was a special birthday gift.
Hugs to Mina and to the dev team, thank you all for this game! I hope I can come to terms with the present and forgive myself soon. I must let them go, they have their lives and I have mine to care about, too.
Just saw your comment and it made my eyes teary ;u; Glad to hear that the story resonates with you deeply. Wherever you are now, I hope you'll soon find your peace. Thank you for playing EDDA Cafe!
THE GAME ALMOST MADE ME CRYYY😭😭😭 I love love this so much!! I love the storyline and meaning of this game, it made me feel mixed emotions but nonetheless, i was very satisfied with the ending. Love love lovee this! this was my very first novel game that i've played, and it did NOT disappoint. Keep it up!!
Hii! Just a quick question, is this a short novel game? Im planning on playing this while live streaming on Twitch LOL. Could anyone tell me if its a long one or a short game?
hi! This game has 2 endings and you can get both in around 1 hour, so it's perfect for a short streaming session! Please tag us on twitter/IG if you announce your stream so we can help promote the stream to our community ^^
But anyways the game is heart warming, the theme is so cute, the characters are good, the story is well written; I love everything about this game. I don't regret pressing the download button and I don't think I'll ever delete it. Gonna keep the memories ya know ^_-
Hi! Sorry about the un-optimized Taku's voice over! Hopefully we'll get a chance to fix it one day. And thanks a lot for playing EDDA Cafe! I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed it! ^^
Unfortunately, at the moment we don't have anyone available that can put the translated script into the game. But please send us an email to contact@mushroomallow.com so I can reach out to you when we need your localization service one day.
I love this game. It actually helped me a little bit, so thanks a lot. I really liked the characters of this game, and I would really like some more stories, like, making canon one of the endings and expanding them, it would be really interesting to see more problems in Mina/Rin/Taku's life, or perhaps new characters, either way, great game and would love a spinoff/sequel, etc....
Thank you for playing EDDA Cafe! While story of Mina and Alex is done, we might have an interesting news coming soon for EDDA Cafe. We'll make the announcement in the near future, and if you're interested, please give us a follow here or on our socials so you won't miss it ^^
Maybe you couldn't see my comment, but I will write what I felt when I played the perfect game "Edda's Cafe" .
First of all it's attractive. The design, the characters and the best of it the story of course. It's a fantastic shiny words and the effect of it's warm leave a beautiful touch on my heart. All the respect and thanks to your hard work.I wish I play another game like this amazing work.
This does hurt my heart if I have a girlfriend and had a rare uncureable disease,and I will cry like little baby for her and hug her one last time,and I hope for her a good luck to live a happy life
That's what Alex wanted to do: to have the courage to tell Mina about his condition while saying good bye to her and wished her for a happy life. But the story happened exactly because he didn't have the courage to do it. He thought it'll be easier for both of them if Mina just hate him and leave him, but it didn't cross his mind that what he did (just broke up with her without telling her anything) ended up putting Mina in years of guilt.
In the end, we wanted to make (sort of) happy ending for both Mina and Alex and hoped that the readers will be satisfied with it. Thank you for playing EDDA Cafe! ^^
This is such a lovely game! The art style is adorable, the story is nice, and I love that there is no 'wrong choice'! I think it gives out a really nice message :D fantastic work!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS GAME this is such a sweet game no matter what ending it is, it's still happy I love the no right or wrong sentence it's so sweet and adorable, I love this game with all my heart!! loved the story and the meaning on this game :D
This was a beautiful, sweet and amazing game! It was a great experience and a great story told, it really was! The art style was great and the music matched the tone well, though I felt like it could have been mellower music at times. It really was a beautiful story with a great moral meaning and decision behind it, well done!
i hate u bcs this made me cry so hard, both endings are beautiful and I love how they said theres no right or wrong answer, just follow your heart. I cant lie I love Taku so much and idk why but the fact that hes just a normal college part time worker is really sweet. are there any more Taku contents out there?
Thanks for playing EDDA Cafe! ^^ Taku seems to be the more popular guys instead of the main love interest, Alex XD. To be honest, we don't make a lot of side content for him since we're busy producing our new commercial title at the moment, but who knows, we might make a side story based on EDDA Cafe in the future if there's enough demand for it and since Taku is the waiter of EDDA Cafe, he'll definitely make a come back there.
This game feels like a spiritual successor to Toshikazu Kawaguchi's novel "Before Your Memory Fades" which I adore. Bittersweet yet heartwarming, sad yet hopeful. Very emotional and thought provoking.
EDDA Cafe was inspired by Toshikazu Kawaguchi's Before the Coffee Gets Cold, not sure if it's the alternate title of the novel that you mentioned, but our writer Nami really enjoy their works. Thank you for playing EDDA Cafe!
It's a series of short novels and "Before Your Memory Fades" it's the 3rd book of "The Coffee Gets Cold" - both the series name and the title of the first book. Every book contains about 4 short stories happend in the cafe.
I played recently and I was really fascinated with the story, I know that in itself, the story had good endings and was made to not be such a long story, but I would really enjoy a second part a lot, I am very intrigued as to what the day to day is like day of the protagonist after the two endings.
Even so, totally incredible, I will be encouraged to look at your other games, because this work left me enchanted.
It had a simple but concise story, the design and the characters are beautiful, you just did an amazing job.
Hi! Thanks a lot for the wonderful comments! I really appreciate it! Considering that it's loved by a lot of people, maybe one day we'll make something based on EDDA Cafe, but for now we want to venture to another type of game and a whole different story to give us more experience on game development. Let us know what you think of our other games, and we will be grateful if you look forward to our new game too! ^^
I played this game a while ago on stream since I'm a VTuber (My twitch ;) And I loved itt!! It was fun and heartwarming and I'm happy that I got to help Mina make the right choice in the end! Thank u mushroomallow for letting me be able to have this experience :D
Hello! Thanks for asking and sure, we'll happy if you stream EDDA Cafe in your channel! If you share about your stream on twitter, please tag us @mushroomallow_ in your twitter post so we can retweet it. ^^
Thank you so much for making this! I enjoyed this visual novel thoroughly, it's short and sweet story accompanied by beautiful aesthetic is perfect fit for someone like me. This is my first visual novel I've read from you and I'm so excited to try your other visual novels!
Well, this game has both encouraged and emotionally damaged me. It's such a wonderful bittersweet story with A+ art that is so soft, and the music??? It made me bawl in the inside when I got to the endings... God, this is so good and it just reaffirmed what I've been abiding by "Sometimes kindness is all we need" and seeing Mina go through that rollercoaster was so painful because she's suffocating herself with the guilt-- I'm so glad she found peace in both endings, god do I want to work in Edda Cafe as well even though I'm sure I'd cry on the customers' behalf... AMAZING GAME LET ME JUST BREATHE CAUSE I'M CHOKING ON MY METAPHORICAL TEARS--
Thank you for playing EDDA Cafe! Reading your comment is the encouragement we need to keep making more games in the future ;;u;; We hope you'll enjoy our future titles too! ^^

I was startled by Taku's greetings😭
