Some feedback, please discard if not relevant.

A straight female MC (and maybe gay men?) has a disadvantage because there are already the two obvious couples from the start (a little off-putting, if I might say, but beggars can't be choosers)

Quick solution #1: make Kalea gender-selectable

Quick solution #2: give players an opportunity to make a deal with Ros (Mc's motivation could be pragmatic, not romantic)

Quick solution #3: if a player wins an advantage, they could choose someone for a roommate. Because right now it's kind of strange this decision is not coming from a player but the two strangers near the end.

Quick question - why Prince Eric ratted out a MC eventually? There was no opportunity to change the location of the suitcase. Low. Really low. And no fun

Thanks so much for checking out the demo and taking the time to share your thoughts!

At this early stage, the focus is mostly on getting a feel for the setting, systems, and a few of the characters. Dmitry and Kalea are both available for pairing in the demo, and while some weeks (like week one) are intentionally canon-locked to fit certain characters and the broader planned storyline, players will have more agency over who they pursue as the game progresses.

All of the romance options are playersexual, though each RO does have a default/alternate pairing in the event they don’t end up with the MC!

As for Dmitry’s choice to sell you out, that moment is very much about who he is as a character. He’s kind to a fault and tends to follow his conscience, even when it leads to frustrating or messy outcomes.

Thanks again for playing! I hope you’ll stick around 💗
