- Pregnancy content: Three girls with multiple stages spread out over time AND tied into the plot - impressive! I don't really have anything else to add, I just want to see how this continues. Gameplay: It's a choice-based VN, so it's not really anything groundbreaking, but I enjoyed the choices and the story presented here, which I will count as gameplay in this case. I still can't really give much more, but it was nice! Creativity: I really liked the flow and pacing of the story, even if the ending was not finished. I'm not sure if I should give more points for just how ambitious this was for a jam, or deduct them for the same reason - overreaching. I think I've settled on a fair assessment, however. Personal thoughts: Definitely the most ambitious of all the games we had this year, and surprisingly complete for what it wanted to do, too. I liked the girls and the fact that pregnancy was so integral to it all, though I gotta say that the current ending feels like a bit of a copout, most likely just because it wasn't given enough time to really stew. What is there, however, is really good and I hope to see the proper ending added sometime soonish, since this has me genuinely interested.
- Great story and enjoyable game, longer than I expected. Looking forward to seeing this when it's complete!
