Literally made the account to make this post as I absolutely love this Starmaker game, but it's definitely missing some things.
- Routes need better signposts. Simply stating 'sharing route' when it doesn't tell you who you're sharing with and that actually sharing later isn't even required in some cases doesn't make sense. Also some options like randomly picking 'I don't want to fuck her' for Katarina once completely locks you out of ALL of the mayor routes, period. And since you don't find out until the next day with the autosaves your entire save file is now locked out.
- Why is the non sharing route so neglected? If you don't want to share Anna you get so little content and all of that content is accessible in the sharing route as well. Why not make some great (potentially hidden or exposing) scenes for it? You can have Jacob pass out on the sofa, which allows you to have fun with Anna in the master bedroom (if you helped with depression). Why not have some fun in the living room where Jacob is passed out? Why not have fun during movie night next to Jacob while he is focussed on the movie? Maybe some fun behind the counter in the kitchen during breakfast or something? Anna chose you over Jacob for a reason, actually make some scenes reflect this maybe? You find out Adrian knows all about the Starmaker page and the options are 'Anna, go seduce him' or 'He won't say anything'. Well if he won't say anything why not make some content where you simply decide to ignore he's in the room? If he's going to see it later anyway then what's stopping you from playing with Anna in front of him?
Scenes like those exist for other characters, why are they missing for Anna?
If those scenes existed then maybe the non sharing route would be viable.
Some scenes at the park that don't involve a 3rd party, or only as an observer would be nice too.
- The option to skip to the weekend, especially once you've passed 1 million cash held or something. There is waaaay too many weekend scenes (mostly forced repeats) for the amount of days you need to unlock all the other content. You're stuck doing only weekends after everything else is essentially done.
- Maybe an option for a NG+ with perks unlocked as it is quite easy to mess up a route without a guide. (mostly because consequences of decisions are only shown the day/week after, past several autosaves)
Keep up the good work though, you guys are doing great!
