Just my two cents, not judging anyone for any of their kinks and not being critical of the author. Just noticed the terms used in the comments and wanted to weigh in while the projects is still early enough:

I am not a fan of the incest trope, but an even bigger peeve is renaming/recategorizing family members as Landlady and room mates. It's dumb. It's either an incest story or it isn't. Call it what it is.  If it truly is not an incest story, then rewrite it so the NPCs are clearly defined for who they are as a person, not what they are to the MC. Make sure the dialogue reflects that difference and doesn't make anything feel weird because of it. 
OR, have the incest, make sure any taboos are addressed, and go on with your story. I can accept it one way or the other, but not with a half ass recategorization. 

A very bad example of this is My Best Deal, for reference.
I wish good luck on this project, and I am liking the premise. I will follow it to see where it goes.

Hey mookieb13, thanks for your comment. I understand where you come from and I agree with you, even if my game contains the aforementioned half-assed categorizations. What prevents me from making it a fully incest-centered story are the guidelines of platforms like patreon that forbid it, it's an annoying situation that we have to put up with, but hopefully you are able to enjoy my next updates, as I try my best to make this a better and better story.

There are other platforms that are ok with incest, like SubscribeStar. Sisterly Lust and Depth's Revival both did very well without being on Patreon. Tales from the Unending Void is even being sold on Steam.

And if the theme is not incest based because of the platform you chose, then you can just write the story so that the characters are described by who they are, instead of what they are to each other so that the dialogue makes sense. Give all the characters a back story that defines them individually. A good example of this is Eternum by Caribdis. 

A lot of AVNs with great stories turn out bad, and I quit them early, because they let the reader define what the characters are to each other (landlady, friend, room mate,) and it never works out in the dialogue throughout the story and makes things confusing. Like I said, a bad example of this is My Best Deal. Great story, Amazing visuals, but the dialogue killed it for me. I just hope to help you avoid that happening in yours. Thanks for the reply
