Sol's the kid who sits in the back row and never talks. The type who's not very good at school but not very good at anything else either. Quiet, passive, without anything to say because he's afraid of saying the wrong thing.
Then he catches Chet stealing test answers.
Or: a repressed rich kid meets a cheating soccer player.

This is my third review of one of the first entries in Arbit's game collection, and I have to ask, what happened?
This game's had me worried about the artist, because what could've possibly happened for them to switch their writing from such beautiful, wholesome but still perfectly within the bounds of human luck and possibilities we can see in this game, to absolutely devastating and painstakingly realistic stories written with the tears of the main characters like Seduction Crime?
Okay, now about the game. This is everything I've ever wanted from a VN made by Arbit and more, it's just such a beautifully written and heartfelt story, which is a very appreciated 180 from his later work. This game's had me cheering for the characters all the way through and begging for a sequel (since I didn't realize this isn't a one off but a TRILOGY AT FIRST TYSM).
Of course, all of the things I liked or loved about the other games of his I played carry on to this one. The writing is as perfectly natural as ever, extremely wholesome and very engaging. Sadly, the lack of choices continues, which hurts me a bit, but didn't change much either way. Oh, and the art style is as cute as ever, with the exception of it being even cuter and more natural somehow???
There's literally nothing anyone could possibly hate this game for, except for its limited length and the fact that it's BL (but if you consider it as anything negative, you should kindly stop interacting with anyone on the internet cuz you make everyone around you depressed), which is why I'm feeling a 9.8/10 (-0.2 points because of the lack of choices sorry ;-;). I hope to see more of this in the sequels.
This game is a huge 180 from Seduction Crime, which I've played before this, a 180 I definitely appreciate. Both the characters are cute, but what matters most is that they're a lot cuter together. I really appreciate it whenever that's the case in such games, I find it very important for the integrity of the game. The art style is, surprisingly, not much different from SC either, which was one of the few things I've appreciated about that game; simple, clean and pretty, not trying too hard while also looking like its own thing and not a ripoff of someone else's style, which I greatly appreciate. The painful realism of SC was also kinda preserved in this game, in the best way possible; the conversations Chet and Sol had and things they did felt very natural and relatable, instead of a painfully depressing story which felt like it had no possibility of even a slightly positive ending, which was the main reason of me disliking SC. Overall, this is a much, MUCH more enjoyable entry in Arbit's sizeable and widely different catalogue which I'm now hoping I'll get to unravel more of, and why I'm feeling it deserves an impressive 9.5/10.
This VN is so cute! I love the relationship between Sol and Chet!
I think I'm the same as Sol so I almost cried
Thank you for sharing this master piece
Thank you for the kind words! I’m touched to hear that the story moved you :’)
Aw this was so cute and soft!
There's a lot of subtle comedy here (like all the stuff about Sol's house smelling of soup) but the general tone of this was really sweet and relaxing. Love the UI; the notepaper design really adds to the high school themeing, and the coloured textboxes for Sol and Chet are really charming!
The art is very cute too; I love how expressive the sprites are! It was a really nice short read, tysm for making and sharing it!
Your comment made me think about Sol and Chet, and then I got all nostalgic for them... They're really so cute :')
I'm glad you liked the UI! The design is one of my favourites of all the games I worked on. If I remember correctly, it took me a while to align the notepaper with the text, haha. Thank you for playing!
This is so cute I'm gonna cry 😭
Thank you! 😭
Loved so much about this
Thank you! :)
THIS GAME IS SO CUTE 😍😍
So, to be 100% honest I played this not knowing it had a sequel, thinking it would be just a cozy one-off game, BUT OH BOY WAS I WRONG- I started with this game at 12pm and just finished he threelogy at half past six- I LOVED IT SO MUCH- I rooted for all of the characters so much, I fell in love, and cried so hard during the second games (because of my own gender dysphoria), o and oh lord if I enjoyed the ending. IT WAS ALL SO GOOD. Just wanted to give kudos to the one that made this game and thank you so much for putting this out there and giving us the chance to enjoy these characters!! <3
Thank you for the kind comment! Sol and Chet are very dear to my heart so being able to tell their story means a lot to me. I was really touched to hear you enjoyed it :) Words like these make me glad to be a game dev and keep making games.
NOT ENOUGH!
I mean c'mon it was too good!
Also, I stopped playing in the middle and went to sleep, and I saw them in my dream. Well, so Sol was feeling bad, so after P E he went to cry and just when he was about to leave Chet came and they hugged. He kissed him on the cheeck, they blushed, his parents said what ur dating and he was like no he's my friend...for now
So it was good.
I can't believe you had a dream about them! Thanks for telling me about it, that sounds really cute :)
Thank you for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I really enjoyed this game so much >w<!!
Really fun and cute at the same time <3. Their relationship's really wholesome :))
(Also found out about Mechet after this, wanted to see more of these two x"D, really liked the acronyms xDD, and very nice story ;w;!)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed playing this game and Mechet. Sol and Chet are indeed cute :D
No prob <3!! It was a pleasure to get to know them :D ^^!!
This game was really cute! I found it after playing "Mechet" and I really enjoyed it. I would love to see Sol and Chet in more games. They are both so sweet and awkward, especially Sol. He's my favourite <3
Thank you for playing! It's super cool that you found this game after Mechet and I'm glad you liked Sol and Chet! I want to keep making stories about them :D
Hello! I really like this game and I did some fanart of them, sorry if it looks bad
Thank you so much! This is the first fanart anyone has done for Moments and it is super cool! I'm honoured you liked the game enough to draw something for it :)
really nice art :)
I love the dialogue in this its so funny, and the art is fantastic. I def recommend !
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the dialogue, I had a lot of fun writing it! And thanks for your comment on Mechet - I laughed :D
Yay! More Sol & Chet! (From me who recently played Mechet) I really like these two, so I'm glad to see another story about them XD Despite the seemingly different plot (& setting), the sweetness is all the same~
I’m glad you enjoyed playing! I like writing about Solchet a lot, they are so fun no matter the setting :D
This is super wholesome! If you're reading this and you haven't played it yet, play it! You won't regret it. <3
I totally agree xD and thank you!
