Really enjoyed the game at all so far. So far I played Tora, Kouya, and Tarou's routes as I felt I would enjoy them the most, I really loved how well done each of them are. Love how unique their personalities are, love how different their motivations and issues are too, really making each route different with how we interact with them and grow especially in those more emotional moments in the story.
I really love the designs of the characters too, and think the backgrounds are done good as well.
I really love the story so far and you did a fantastic job expressing the characters' struggles as each of them battles their own issues going on in their lives. Really loved how Act 2 ended off as well, with having a really deep talk about the problems we have in our head and also adding in a subtle mention of possible romantic interests between the characters. I enjoyed how well you have nailed the personalities, as during this conversation each character expressed it exactly how I would have pictured it, with Tora just completely like "nope nope it was nothing!", Kouya just brushing it aside like it was no big deal and not showing too much emotion, and Tarou opening-up and being comfortable with us but also being super shy about it.
I think if I were to say any criticisms towards the game it would have to be the lacking of art and sprites sometimes. I wish some of the characters could have more, especially with their different emotions, like I would enjoy a blush look for Tarou because of how much he blushes throughout the story, and think it would look very cute. And for the side characters, I wish there was more done with them too, as most are either not done at all, or are just silhouettes and sketches, though they're side characters so I wouldn't really say I mind much. I also wish we could see more art done too, especially scene shots with the characters in it, just something to give a more fun visual look at what's going on. Just feel like even though Act 2 is done, there's really nothing in the gallery besides some backgrounds.
