First of all - impressive. That fact, that developer managed to create coherent and serious story around "expansion" theme, where breasts can reach size of airships, is rather insane. It's still in early development, but already has branchy story, interesting and lovely characters, a lot of choices to make, perspective mechanics and a good gallery.
Gameplay is surprisingly variable as well. In addition to classic exploration and communication with other characters, we also have daily activities, we can manipulate people, time travel and even change the past! It's rather thrilling to see how our actions change the world (and people of course) around us. I hope that eventually all our actions will lead to some really big consequences. Maybe even too big.
And of course the key pillar of the game - expansions. And the game covers many directions here. Some of them more, some of them - less. There are many characters that can already be affected, but so far only one heroine that can boast with really huge gallery of expansions. But if, in the perspective, other characters will get similar treatment (or even better) - that would be great. Thus, so far everything looks very promising here.
Some critique? - Sure! Since the game is still WIP, I won't bash it for locked areas or lack of content in certain aspects. But there are still few things to mention. Firts of all - AI. I'm not a blind hater of AI. So if developer uses it to optimize development and improve quality - I have no problem with it. What IS a problem here, when it's used for creation of cheap models for few secondary characters.
I can bet that I've seen these faces in thousands of other generated images, games, etc. They severely cheapen otherwise great game. If they'll disappear - the game will lose literally nothing. I hope they are just temporary fillers and will be eventually replaced at some point.
Some minor rant about perspective "corruption" path. While it looks very promising and adds some really cool mechanics, so far it seems little too... straightforward. I mean, in the "romance" path both Artemis and MC masterfully manipulated people, organizations, events and even the past, while staying in shadows. So, what's the point to make this public perfomance in front of other characters? Why letting them know who stands behind it? IMHO, a more subtle and sneaky approach in spreading of corruption would fit more.
But in the end - great job so far! Looking forward for the next update. Or at least for ETA.
