Thanks for the kind words and feedback.
Pacing is indeed one of the hardest things to get right. On one hand, I want the players to care about the characters so that when the sex scenes come they are more meaningful. On the other hand, this is a +18 game and players expect a certain dose of sex scenes and not just character development.
This first chapter had a lot of characters and themes to introduce and perhaps I misjudged the ratio of non-sexual/sexual scenes a bit. I believe this will improve as the game progresses and the characters become more well established. Then, there will be a higher number of sex scenes and kinks per chapter for the players to explore.
