I heard you like feedback, so you shall receive. First of all, I respect that you want to stick to your non-harem vision! I'd love to see a game that implements this concept well. However...

1. As a new player, I'm unsure how to approach this game. The convenient thing about harem games is that everything goes. You don't have to worry about infidelty too much because you can always sort it out eventually if you play your cards right. Also, they often have group sex later on in the story, which is popular. With this game however, I don't know how I should act. Should I really only flirt with one girl? Or with my top three girls? Would that already be too much? I'm scared to access "too much" of the game's content because it might backfire. More clarity would be nice.

2. If you really want to lock the player into one path only, 7 girls to choose from is too much. You're spreading yourself too thin. Also, it seems that some girls are a LOT more popular than others among the comunity which I find problematic. I'd say cut it down to 3/4 love interests and make each really fleshed out and likeable in their own right. But that's not something you can just change just like that, obviously.

3. The story doesn't hook me. Now, this might be a preference thing but I like it when there's a nice story that gives you a break from "dating" while still making you become more attached to the girls when they join you on your adventures. Some games focus exclusively on "dating", maybe that's what you're going for, but it wouldn't be for me. Also, having two parties in short succession looks like a writing sin, mix it up a bit!

4. The humor is more miss than hit. I like that you're trying, but most of the time it seems like low effort. The problem is less the joke itself but the delivery. Also, don't repeat jokes, you know the rule!

5. Who even is Falazio? I can't put my finger on it but his personality just confuses me. Maybe I'm going crazy.

That was a lot of negative feedback, but it's not all bad! The girls look great, music choice is excellent and I like that you're brave enough to try something new. But as it is right now, it's not a good game in my book. Not yet at least. I hope this helps, best of luck with your efforts!

First of all, as always, this game isn't for everyone as some clearly have certain preferences. 
Have you played any games rendered in Daz, like Summer Heat, Summers Gone, Badik, etc.? It's essentially the same principle as them, and there is a vast amount of non-harem games, it's just that the almost never exist in hs1/2 space for whatever reason besides mine. Maybe this comparison helps.
So you can if you wish instantly lock on one girl you like, but there is no real downsides exploring and getting to know girls as you wish initially. Only later on in the game do you have proper drawbacks if you tried to pursue each of the 7 girls at same time, as it's impossible to have high points with all girls at same time, and some choices will be locked due to points.
Moreover, that's also what my players enjoy, the whole point is to replay few times, see how things can effect the characters, what happens if you go with someone instead of another etc. That's the main draw to it, and obviously it's not for everyone.

2. While 7 is a lot, I don't think it's over the top, honestly I don't know a single non harem game with only 3 girls, that would be boring especially if zero girls picked any interest to the player. Balancing is hard, but I am trying my best to give the spotlight to all girls, with some fixes in ep4.5 already + ep5 being focused on lesser screentime girls. And I love all my girls, ain't no way I am cutting one 😊

3. Hm idk how to answer the latter points. Yeah, friendship, relationships and dating is the main motive, with the other being related to certain aspects with parts showcased slightly throughout ep1-4. Parties there will be quite a bit, it's an university setting and I've had my own big share of them throughout. People loved ep3 party and there will be more in future with branching parts and choices ^^

4. and 5. Uhhhh well it's a hit or miss, can't hook everyone with humor. Soli gave me a cup that says "best dev with jokes" so I guess at least some jokes players enjoy 🤣Maybe you going crazy, but he is a goofball for the most part. And a bro.

I appreciate feedback and for the most part I don't mind discussing my stances, as sometimes that can lead to improvements or open-mindness, however I am also not changing the core structure of my game to cater to any categories of players.

Thanks for your reply! Sure, you can't make everyone happy and if you have a community that likes what you do, why change it? As for other non-harem games, you're right, my scope still seems to be quite limited. Still, this is the first game of this kind I came across, and I might not be the last; a small clarification, that messing around with multiple girls won't be punished, would be nice.

I have not played the game yet, but after seeing how active you are, I'll give it a shot. Also, I love the concept of struggling to choose between the girls(I am replaying it a couple of times rather than trying to make everyone happy). So thanks for creating this kind of game(s) from now on.

My dude really just did "☝🤓" thing...

These emojis could mean a lot of things. I'm assuming you mean that I'm trying to lecture someone on something I barely understand myself? Fair point, though I'm just illustrating my own perspective, as uninformed as it might be. The dev can and should disregard my opinion if I'm not someone they're catering to. Which is fine, they can't make everyone happy.

It looked as if the dev was trying to get nominated somewhere (or to be hired by Rockstar, for example), and you are an experienced critic. Maybe it's just your way of speaking? I don't know. Visually it looked like what I wrote above, so... 

However, nevermind~ 

Wasn't trying to insult anyone. Just a joke

Ok, no worries! Guess I overinterpreted your message^^
