Heeheehee your comment was so fun to read, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! There's also some slightly different dialogue if you don't go to the photo room at the end and instead go on another date.
It wasn't really THAT hard to program, and I've been familiar with RPG maker for many years, but it DOES seem like he's actually too smart. But yes, that one part only has 3 outcomes. I did think about how Toby Fox made the "no mercy" route of Undertale based on how people play RPGs so I thought about how people play visual novels.
I love that idea about the camera, I've seen another game create the illusion of that and that sounds like a cool spoooky idea! I have several "4th wall breaking illusions" planned that I'm really proud of so far!
Ashton is basically created from all the stuff I myself love in fictional characters, he's heavily inspired by Peter from the "Your Boyfriend" game and directly references him (and Ash also hates him) but there's also some Monika from DDLC and Underfell Sans from Undertale AUs and many others. As for what he was saying in the blanked out text, Ash is extremely horny and also lonely, and I've found that what one DOESN'T see is more effective than showing, like blurring the gore or blanking out someone saying something VERY NSFW. But he's basically saying that you and him will...ahem...have intercourse for eternity.
Thank you SO much for playing, I can't tell you how unbelievably happy it makes me to see people gush over Ashton or make fanart. There's a bunch of gorgeous art on twitter under the #pictureperfectboyfriend if you like to see it. Everyone has been so wonderful and it's given me strength to make this game great!
