Alarm

The user may set an alarm for a custom time. Ichimatsu will open a time input box, which the user can use to pick a time. The number of seconds entered is ignored.

The alarm must be set to ON in order to ring. This is shown in the menu as +ON, rather than -ON.

The user may choose between an alarm that sounds only once, and an alarm that sounds daily. If the alarm is set to Once, it will automatically set the alarm to OFF when the alarm is dismissed.

The user may also choose between alerts in the ghost's balloon, and alerts via the tray balloon.

Input Box

The user may open the input box by clicking “Let's talk to each other.”, and then “I want to say something.” There are many unique dialogues that may only be seen by inputting the right phrases into the input box. The user is encouraged to leave out punctuation and only write in lowercase.

Some phrases have some additional effects. For example, telling Ichimatsu “nya”, “meow”, or “mew” will raise his affection stat slightly, while saying “go away”, “leave”, “get out”, or “leave me alone” will decrease his affection stat and make him close himself.

Each of Ichimatsu's brothers may be summoned by writing “summon ” plus the brother's name in the input box. So “summon osomatsu” will summon Osomatsu, and “summon karamatsu” will summon Karamatsu. Note that only one brother may be summoned at a time; if the user wishes to summon another, they must dismiss the currently summoned one.

Brothers

When the brothers are summoned, they will sometimes have random conversations with Ichimatsu. Each of them also has their own menu, where the user may prompt them to say something, express their love for the character, or dismiss them.

Balloon

Ichimatsu uses a balloon called Z - Simple [Edit], which can be obtained in the version of Ichimatsu that comes bundled with an installation of SSP. It is an edit of the Z - Simple balloon, giving Ichimatsu plain white balloons with black borders.
