Hello,
I'm TailzKim! This was my first time working on illustrations for a game. Since it was also my first experience being involved in game development, there may be areas that feel a bit lacking—but I truly hope you enjoy it. I especially had fun designing Mari’s emotional expressions and her various outfit variations.
Below is a commentary from the lead developer of the VN.
I sincerely hope you have a great time playing it! XD

Hello,
I'm keep0621, the lead developer of this project. I'm truly delighted to introduce my very first visual novel, My Thicc Friend Mari-Chan!
Although programming is not my academic background—I've only self-taught some C++ and Python—I had always wondered if I could really complete a game on my own. That’s why being able to present this finished work now brings me a deep sense of accomplishment.
As this is my debut title, I’m aware there may be areas that feel a bit rough around the edges. Still, I sincerely hope you’ll enjoy the experience and find something meaningful or fun within it.
This project was created in close collaboration with TailzKim, who handled all of Mari’s illustrations. While a few assets reuse older artwork, the vast majority—especially the key scenes—were newly drawn specifically for this title. Since Mari is originally TailzKim’s OC, we’ve spent a lot of time over the years discussing and refining her personality and presentation, particularly during our work together on CG package projects. I did my best to ensure that her unique charm and consistency as a character remained intact.
Mari has always been a somewhat indecisive but cheerful girl—one who hesitates at first but gradually opens up and becomes deeply engaged in intimate experiences. I tried to capture that essence so you, as her childhood friend, can enjoy spending time with her in a fun and immersive way.
My Thicc Friend Mari-Chan! is not a large-scale game, but I’ve included five different endings and a simple mini-game to add some variety. I did my best to balance it, though depending on your choices, you might find Mari surprisingly easy or unexpectedly tough to beat—so I kindly ask for your understanding in that regard.
The game supports both Windows and Mac.
On Windows, simply extract the zip file and run the exe.
On Mac, the system may ask for permission to run the app. This is due to the lack of official developer registration with Apple, so rest assured there’s nothing to worry about.
This introduction turned out a bit longer than expected, but I just wanted to share my thoughts and passion that went into making this VN. I truly hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed creating it.
Thank you very much.
