Hello! Thankyou for many things, including thankyou for letting me be your first NSFW focused VN. <3
Yes! The lack of music is very much a big thing, originally I was looking at producing my own (albeit amateur) slow music; thinking about jazz vibes, soft synths that sort of agenda. At this point, I'm potentially looking at commissioning a freelancer to help make some tracks. I'd love to make it where each character has their own theme for casual moments one on one.
The bugs is a very good thing to know about; I've not heard too much on that front so that's a huge thing to learn, thank-you! Things like the reputation screens and the likes, I do plan to overhaul at some point. I started the project when I was very much new to coding, especially Python (This actually made me pursue changing it to my specialisation in university!) So in theory, most of the stuff in Future plans looks to be feasible. Currently, I've been looking at creating a little stripclub minigame within it that would require full python framework and that's a whole thing, think like Yakuza 0's club management system. Though, this is much more down the line once the game has received a lot more story based content. I do think I'd probably need another pair of eyes who does coding to look over it, limit test the code and help me as my specialisation went down more the 3D asset pipeline versus the coding production side (but looking to make that my masters.)
Regarding expanded platforms, the original release of VIP actually did include Linux/Mac too; but there was that wave where things were flagging up as a virus and it was something to do with Ren'py at the time, but removing that and changing a couple of things eliminated the false positive back then- Curiously though, I dont think I actually had any MAC/Linux users for the previous one. I wonder if i can check the statistics on that front. (I've had about 600-700 downloads currently, that much I know!)
Thankyou though again for all the feedback, that was really nice to read through and there was a lot of really good constructive critique there- I really appreciated reading this. :)
All the best! (And all the hugs too!)
-Munch.
