yekkusu I want to be honest and provide constructive feedback if that's ok with you guys. Again, this is just my opinion and in no way do I mean what I'm about to say with ill intention. I'll be rating this VN 5/5 stars though because I don't want to affect your overall score, but I want to share my thoughts here:
Things I liked this VN:
The plot and setting
The characters
The art and design
The soundtrack is nice and cozy
Things I didn't like and which I think could be improved or tweaked a bit:
I don't know that much about programming, but I really don't like the engine you chose to design this VN with. I don't know whether this is an engine or optimization issue but as soon as I execute the game it consumes almost all of my PC's resources, this is something I haven't experienced when running visual novels on Renpy or Unity.
The text is too small , I wish I had the option to change the size.
The fastest text speed available feels slow.
I wish I could press a key to skip dialogue instead of having to click the skip dialogue option (at least I couldn't find which key does this, and tried all of them)
My main criticism. The writing isn't bad at all, and,as I said before, I liked the plot so far. I do think, however, that the pacing is a bit slow and the prose feels too descriptive for my taste.
Some things you detail, should maybe be shown instead. I personally don't like exposition that much, and maybe we get too much information and description about certain elements that you might consider opting out, so the plot can flow more dynamically.
That's it, please I don't want to offend you, I'm simply suggesting that some pieces of information might work better if you offered it through dialogue between characters.
Looking forward to the next build!
