Hey clicked here and saw you created a silent corruption was big fan and sad to see its on hold, but this seems hot and I liked it. Some quick thoughts and questions.

- First off choosing name, but still going by Zero, I just hate that, I am big on self insertion, and I really wish that would be changed, cause it just ruins it for me, please consider changing cause feels bad to me, and mood killer for game right now. Like we can still be Zero in the sense, but actually be referred to as our name by the girls, like Elena could first ask us when awake. I don't know, like I said this puts me off game instantly and I kind of lost interest and skipped through just to see things after this cause I hate all forced names.

- Dick size inconistency, I have no issue with smaller size, but I think the issue is in the first scene it is smaller than in second scene, so feels weird and maybe needs adjustment or more focus going forward to keep consistent.

- Positives, glad you are willing to show more of mc's face, makes it more dyanmic with scenes unlike silent corruption and allows kissing like Elena. Speaking of Elena, I love and adore her she is great. Girls are beautiful, story is intriguing.

- Questions, I know some femdom was planned in silent corrupiton, any chance for that here, I hope a bit, like one girl, no problem if not. And i know we got harem, any chance during group sex, girls can play with each other in our harem and have some lesbian fun, even if its just when we are present only, cause big fan of girls in harem having fun too.

But yeah, that cover everything, I hope you get back to me on some of this and I hope you change name thing, just kills my mood on self insertion, which is the reason I play these games. But great job overall.

Final Edit: I don't think you should let polls decide content either, it will lead to stuff like ntr, certain girls feeling negelected, only one type of content no matter what, and so forth. Polls can help maybe outfits and small things, but shouldn't be used for story and stuff.

Thank you so much, MagicMan753, for taking the time to write such a detailed message! This kind of feedback is exactly what I'm looking for with this demo. Let me try to address all your questions and observations:

The initial name choice and still being called 'Zero' is actually intentional for the story. The idea is that the protagonist will slowly regain memories of his past life. Once he finally remembers his real name, the custom name you chose will start being used.
The dick size inconsistency really caught my attention because I actually used the exact same 3D model for all the scenes! It might be the camera FOV (field of view) in close-ups changing the perception of scale, but I will definitely look into ways to minimize this issue going forward.
I'm really glad to hear you liked the characters so far!
In the next update, I'll be introducing 'all' the girls in the bunker. You'll meet Sarah, the commander. She definitely has a 'femdom' vibe, though it won't be strictly femdom all the time with her. My intention is to explore both dynamics with her.
Yes, there will absolutely be threesomes and group sex (including girls playing with each other). I plan to add a lot of content like that! The goal for this game is to have a wide variety of NSFW possibilities.
You're totally right about the polls. They won't be used to dictate the main story or lore. I plan to use them mainly for deciding things like outfits, which characters to add next, and other smaller details.

I hope this answers all your questions! Rest assured, your chosen name will appear—it's really just a temporary side effect of the cryo-sleep amnesia. :D

Thanks again for the message and for testing out the visual novel! <3

Ok sounds good on a lot of this stuff, but I will say I get your point on name thing and regaining memories, but that can still be done with our inputted name. Like maybe for some reason the only thing we remember is our name when we wake up and nothing else, then we can regain our memories still.

Like I said its biggest mood killer and just don't like being referred to anything else, so that will put me off more than anything and not want to continue playing at all. Or I will use something to fix it myself until like urm, until name change comes, which may not make story sense, but I don't want to be referred to as zero, like ever, I like being me.

One other piece of feedback that just came to me is the dialogue box, male it where it can be transparent, the red and how its presented isn't best, I like cleaner look.

And character coming, I guess I can get behind switch with femdom and maledom both. Will say many people don't like femdom, so having that dynamic will turn them off, maybe a choice of how each scene goes femdom or maledom, but that might create too much work, and lose switch dynamic you are going for.

But I am fine on rest of answers and sounds good, and yeah dick might be angles, just looks a couple inches bigger with blowjob and doggy, but maybe it is angles, I don't know. But yeah most of answers dound good and well.

But nice job overall, maybe I will keep an eye out, just don't know if I can get past name thing right now unless I just force change myself which sounds like I will unfortunately if I want to continue playing. Like I said maybe that is all we remember when we wake and just adjust or add some dialogue.

Edit: And sorry if this came across rude, its just one of things I am most passionate about when it comes to visual novels and when I can't self insert, I lose interest. Sounds like nothing will be done, so maybe I will force it myself or move on. Not trying to be rude again, sorry, just important to me. So I am sorry, you are doing a great job, but for me, this is just personal issue. So, sorry for last time.

Hey man, please don't worry, it didn't come across as rude at all. I completely understand your point, and I really appreciate you taking the time to help improve the visual novel.

Regarding the name, it will make a lot more sense in the next update. Very soon in the upcoming content, when talking to one of the girls, you will recall your name, and from that point on, your chosen name will be fully integrated into the story. You are only "Zero" at the very beginning because the corporations treated you as a mere asset, but upon waking up, you will show that you are still human.

As for the dialogue box, I can definitely look into improving it and adding a transparent option. This is actually a perfect opportunity for a poll! I can design a few different UI styles, show them to the community, and let the best one win. I'll make sure to set that up for the next update.

About the NSFW scenes and dynamics like femdom, whether a specific scene happens or not will depend entirely on the choices you make. Everything comes down to your personal playstyle and how you want to shape the encounters.

Thank you again for the honest feedback. I really hope you stick around and continue following the game—please don't drop it just yet!
