Ok, I have played at least a hundred different VN's from Itch, and this game surprised me. I don't easily get hooked on a story and this game just floored me with how well it was written. The animations and characters are absolutely flawless. The story is riveting and involving. This just made my top 3 favorite VN list. Superb work. I rarely pay money to support devs on here. (not due to choice but rather necessity as my financial status is not the greatest) but I will be either subbing to your patreon or at the very least paying per episode release here on itch. (Still undecided)
I know that english is not your primary language, and some of the english translations were a little rough, but not enough to drive me away or ruin my interest in the story.
My only (possible) complaints are as follows
[1:] In the early chapters of the game, there's very little face time with a few of the girls. (Amy, Betty and Maya) A few pick up later, but it seems out of the blue due to the length of time without them having any screen time.
[2:] in the chapter 2-3 transition several of the scenes seem kindof forced, as they had no real plot builup for them, they were just shoehorned in. Not enough to ruin my enjoyment, but enough to make me scratch my head a bit,
[3:] I was never interested in pursuing a relationship with Monica, and never made any choices to pursue one. However I did choose to kiss her on the cheek when she was upset about something. I saw it as more of a friendly, comforting gesture and not a romantic one, however due to that ONE choice out of several I could have made, but did not. I was railroaded into a relationship with her in chapter 3, which gave zero option to stop pursuing her. I have no desire to pursue her, but I was already several hours into the story and didn't want to start from scratch. This might be something to take into consideration for future releases. To either give a civil way to break it off for those of us that did choose the "kiss on cheek" option, but saw it as a comforting gesture and not a romantic one, or better illustrate the actual repercussions of that action when the choice is available.
other than those 3 issues, I absolutely love it so far. I did have a question though.
Is it going to have Harem options? or will pursuing multiple women end with a "bad" ending? I can see a few not being okay with harem. Mainly Yui, cause she's hella jealous lol. But With Betty/Phoebe/Amy and possibly even Alice, I could see them being okay with a Harem.
Just curious is all.
Sorry for writing you a book, and thank you again for this awesome work.
