I did pretty much abandon animations for the game, yes. Animation work is not something I enjoy, and I feel like the time it takes for me to make a decent animation is better spent on making actual content. Since the game's focus isn't on the porn side of things, I feel like it isn't too big of a loss anyway. There will be the occasional animation here and there, if the situation calls for it, but don't expect them in every h-scene going forward.
That being said, I'm glad the other aspects of the game were able to make up for the animations and you enjoyed your time with it. Thanks for playing :)
