A downloadable story for Windows, macOS, and Linux

A very short, linear erotic tale to test some rendering technology and a revised ren'py layout.

I'd appreciate some feedback from those of you who try it out, specifically around:

  • The manga style from the Koikatsu renderer (vs the more photo-realistic renders from the hs2 renderer - see my NightTrain project).
  • The side by side ren'py layout.  I'm finding, in the sequel to NightTrain, that the horizontal text makes it difficult to deal with vertically aligned pictures because the viewing frame has about a 16x6 ratio.  The side by side layout here gives my a viewing window that's about about 9x10, which lets me zoom in closer on vertical scenes, while leaving horizontal scenes much the same.
  • The inline emotes and the delayed text, aimed at increasing the information content of the text and reducing the number of screen wipes so you get a stabler viewing experience.

Hope you find it enjoyable.
