First of all I want to congratulate you for the artstyle and writting; I've played quite a lot of adult games and this one is one of the few I actually care about the dialogues instead of pressing skip. I've found myself laughing in real life with the comments or thoughts of the MC. The girls are also very well written, in other games, it seems that all of them have the same personality (or don't have any at all) but in this one each girl has a very characteristic and very cool personality. In particular, I fell in love with Bella, the relationship she has with the MC is as if they were a couple in real life, the bond they develop is wonderful, for example, when they exchange playful insults in bed, or when the MC ruins the surprise and Bella begins to "narrate" what she would've done, and in the end the MC ends up saying "luckyly you are a very evocative storyteller" haha! they're perfect for each other, they're both such smartasses. I got so involved with Bella that in the scene after the forest when she stares at you on the couch and starts to cry, I almost hug the monitor. And when I saw her try on the wedding dresses I almost started to cry, I don't know if you “touched” her character model but at first she seemed to me very "meh" and then (probably because my perception changed) she became the most beautiful girl of the whole game, that beautiful face and dat ass ... daaaammn. I love that deep down she's a romantic and very shy (you have to "work" hard to get her to open) but in the end everything is worth it. My canon is a playthrough with only her (and pregnant of course). I really love her.

Another one that I like (although not as much as Bella) is Rachel, she's very cute, playfull and kinky (so far she's the only one willing to try anal! Go go Rachel!), her romance is very fun. On the other hand, I don't care in the slightest about Liza; and Susan is interesting especially in the Discreet part.
I liked that you have opted for stills rather than animations, if at some point you get to include them, it'd be good if they have text, I've seen other games with empty animations and it's not very hot to see a loop with nothing; the text often adds some "context" that makes it hotter.

Now the things that I would've liked to see in this game:

Friendship's path: I know, it's an adult game, why would anyone want that? The "problem" was that I didn't want a relationship with every girl, just the one ;) and  like I said, I don't care about Liza in a romantic way but she could've been a very close and dear sister. My "canon" will always be Bella but if the MC doesn't start a relationship with any of the other girls, most days feel really empty "wait until evening"/"go to sleep", I mean, does he not leave the room? Does he not talk to anyone, not even by message? Therefore, I think it would've been interesting to add a friendship's path or family's path whatever you want to call it, in order to bond with the rest of your family and get to know them a little more even if you're not fucking them. In the game, if you don't have a relationship with a girl, she almost disappear and you never see her again (almost). For example, I would've liked to keep talking to Liza and even have the option of telling her about my relationship with Bella and persuading her that she won't become a religious fanatic, and that could've been a way of exploiting a bit more the whole trust/corruption system, I imagine something like, with enough corruption she might accept my relationship with Bella; and with enough trust she might be willing to see Justin and company as violent fanatics (something similar as in her romance, but with a LOT of talking/persuading and trust/corruption checks). I also would've liked to talk more with Susan outside the Discreet/Love path that it didn't seem fully developed either. I'm sure that with your level of writing you could've came up with very funny/interesting situations in this path.

Electronic ¿daily planner?: It would've been better (in my opinion of course) if you had implemented a kind of electronic agenda to plan all the activities of the day, because it seems that most can be done in any order (except in some cases) and that breaks a little the continuity... For example, before going to the gym with Bella, the MC can do other activities, what happens in that case? Does Bella wait for you to finish before you go? The appointment at Discreet that you have scheduled at 2 pm, can be made immediately after breakfast or leave it last and doesn't really matter. In another game (Holiday Island) I saw something similar implemented and when two activities crash with each other, one of them can be re-scheduled at another time. This way you could actually missed some activities, if you're not carefull enough, affecting your relationships.

Abrupt romances: I love Bella, I repeated that a lot in this message, but her romance begins very abruptly (my issue is with the begining, then it was pure bliss for me). She hates you, you give her a 5000 loan and she loves you instantly, and that loan doesn't even solve her problem, it's just a delay; and I didn't like that if you don't want to persue that romance you have to be an asshole or break her heart really bad (being a bigger asshole). On the other hand, I would've liked to be able to help her (because I really HATE Dwayne, I wanted to fucking murder him, and I don't want to know what happens if you don't help her, she might end up as his bitch or something equally heartbreaking...) without starting a romance in a playthrough with only Rachel, but we don't have that option without being a douchbag. I also would've liked that it developed a little more before going into romance so it's not like "I hate you - 5000 later - I love you", although I understand that that should be way to get her to like you because deep down Bella is a romantic and the idea of White Knight rescuing her it's probably something she really likes (although she wouldn't admit it). For example, with Liza you get to help her get rid of Brody and then the MC can choose to start a relationship or not without breaking her heart (kiss in her cheek/ kiss in the mouth), of course, it would've been repetitive if it were exactly like that for all the others girls but it's good to have that kind of option without being an asshole every time you don't want a romance. 
Finally, I saw other comments talking about "too much sex", for me that wasn't a bad thing, I saw in other games people complaining because the game was very slow or didn't have enough sex, now there is too much xD, it must be very difficult for you creators to find the perfect balance and try to please everyone (or most people). What I want to point out, however, is that the complete harem sex didn't do anything for me, not because the scenes were bad or anything, I just didn't connect with any girl (not even with my beloved Bella), they were so many women that none mattered. That's why I want to congratulate you again on your writing, the connection I felt with Bella makes sex with her alone much more intimate and hot than those scenes with the whole harem. Of course, there are a lot of other scenes that were really hot too, almost all of the scenes with Rachel, the ones with Adriana and Susan, etc. I didn't like it very much the whole “piss on me” thing, but hey, everyone have their own kinks.
I know it's almost a meme now, but “sorry for my english” xD clearly, I'm not as fluent as I'd like but I hope you read this and understand what I tried to say! Awesome game dude! Can't wait for the next!

Thanks a lot spiegelbild! I must confess I fell a little in love with Bella during the development too. I didn't change her character model, but I did get better at rendering the images as the game progressed.

The friendship/platonic routes would have been a great touch, but I had to prioritize. Adding them would greatly enhance the immersion of the game, I agree completely. For the next project I'm trying to strike a better balance between the romantic and platonic, so that the game doesn't feel as empty if you don't pursue a particular path.

I started Sisterly Lust on my own and have been developing it for the past two years in my spare-time and I must say that there are quite a few lessons I've learned about developing visual novels. So my next project will hopefully build on the strong points of Sisterly Lust and I hope you'll get to enjoy it too. ;)
