Thank you! I definitely wouldn't abandon it in any case, but I feel like if I do hit the point of burnout, it would make updates take so much longer than just slowing down a bit would.

Your patience is appreciated. I promise that the wait will always be worth it!

Absolutely! The fans deserve the best. I'm definitely over-working myself, but it's fine. I'll give myself a week or two of rest after 0.2 is out.

Thank you! I can't wait for you to see what's next!

这是我现在能做的最好的事情了。希望我将来能找到一个真正的翻译家。对不起。

I mean, I don't disagree.

He had to get a "cleaner" look for his corporate job though. It's subject to change as time passes in the story. Might even go back to the more ragged hair from the past.

第2章介绍机器翻译。

In all fairness I had to really think about the point deduction on that choice. I did it the way it is since he's morally ambivalent at that point in the story.

I will take much more care with the points system moving forward.

Also, I'm glad you enjoyed overall! I'm aiming for more of a romance story, so perversion just didn't really fit.

You may have commented a little too soon and already realized this, but I'll clarify things anyways. You lose affection because the MC confesses to it shortly after. It's just a few points anyhow. There'll be plenty of opportunities to get them back.

Like you said in your first comment, you'll die on this hill. So, I'm not trying to change the way you feel about anything.

What I will say, is this game is planned to have romance, which means, yes, a lot of the Main LIs will be slow burns to various degrees. That's why I have side characters to fill the gaps, who won't be so focused on the romance.

Thank you for such an in-depth comment, there's a lot to get through here, but I'll try to keep it short.

To the first point. I completely agree that the cliffhanger is a bit underwhelming and cliche. I'll be working on better ones for future chapters.

To the second point. This is all your opinion. To me all three parts of an AVN are equally important; the A, V, and N should all be given careful attention and be implemented in a way that each one enhances the other to make the whole. Myself and many other players enjoy the A a lot more when there is a connection and we get some kind of emotional pay-off from it because we are attached to the characters. The N part can build that up, thus enhancing the A part. 

My MC has issues in Ch. 1 when it comes to dealing with women and just barely starts to break away from that by the end of the chapter. Plus, he barely knows any one of them, with the exception of Layla. You later mention that you care about immersion, well, would it not be immersion breaking for the MC with these particular issues to be a horn-dog and just hook up with all of these people he barely met? I'm sorry, but I'm not going to ruin the vision of my game by turning it into another constant f-fest. There will be a LOT more A content in the future, but at the moment it makes no sense narratively for my game to be that way.

To the third point. It would also be immersion breaking that Astara, someone who lives in a big city, just happens to own a vehicle perfectly suited to the environment that she has to go to this one time. It might have been difficult, but that motorcycle is what she had, and it's not impossible that it could make it to where it did for several reasons. Especially, when you factor in what her power is.

All-in-all, there's some solid feedback in here that I will take into consideration, but I'm not going to rescope my project into a mindless horny game where there is more A action than there is actual story. If that makes me lose some players, so be it.

Man, she really is popular, but yeah that is correct. Those are the 6 main LIs at the moment.

Thank you! I wasn't really expecting to be told the reasons in this thread, but I can see how it would seem like I was. Sorry about that.

Hello! Sorry for adding to all of the other posts of this nature, but my game page was published over 2 months ago and the game officially released  a month (31 days) ago and has yet to be indexed. It is of the adult nature and I have been through all of the rules and requirements to make sure that I have everything set up correctly for indexing. I reached out to support almost 2 weeks ago (12 days), and still haven't received a response from them.

My Support Ticket ID: 311049

I know there are various factors that affect the time it takes for getting indexed, especially for NSFW games, but it's been a little disheartening to see other adult games publish and get indexed either the same day or even the same week as being published while my game is sitting in indexing limbo somewhere. It makes me think that I missed something or did something wrong, but with no response from support I have no idea what that could be or if that's even the case here.

I look forward to any insight that can be provided and thank you in advance for your time.

I mean, fair enough. I did have plans for an Android build eventually, though. So it's not a big deal to make it. Took less than half an hour to get everything right for it, since I didn't mess with UI formatting or anything for the 0.1 version.

I've already got Chapter 2 set up to package things into different archives to make it easier to make an android port. Chapter 2 is going to be larger than the first, so I expect it'll be over the 2gb limitation of apk files. A little more research has to be done on my end for subverting that size limit.

I do plan to have an android release with Chapter 2. For now though, if you want to play it on android, check into JoiPlay. It worked well for me.

I have a background in indie development, so I have a slight advantage. Although, this is my first time working on a VN, in the Ren'Py engine, and working with 3D to this extent.

All that to say, don't get discouraged. Everyone has to start somewhere and if you stick with it, you'll only improve! I'll be wishing the best of luck for you and your own project!

I had noticed that, but I thank you for pointing it out anyways. Itch says indexing can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. I was trying to give them ample time, but I think I'll reach out to support soon.

Read your review btw, thanks for the kind words and the 5 stars!

注意 - 使用机器翻译，如果不正确，抱歉。

是的。我目前有一个可以做中文翻译的人，并且正在寻找其他翻译人员，但还没有闲钱支付他们。我不想在游戏中使用机器翻译，因为它通常很糟糕

Thank you so much! Chapter 2 is already in the works!

There was plans for android, but I don't want to disappoint people when it gets over 2gb and making an apk version gets very complicated, not just for me but all the players to install as well.

Might I recommend JoiPlay? It's an emulator that is capable of running the win/linux version. I've loosely tested it myself with my own game and it worked surprisingly well. It even used the android formatting (which needs a lot of work at the moment).

It took longer than I wanted it to for a release, but I got it there! Thanks!

Thank you! I have no plans to abandon it, don't worry.

The six main LIs and majority of the side characters will all be important to the main storyline and yes, the harem ending will include all main and side characters that you pursue.

I may be misunderstanding what you're asking though, so feel free to elaborate or correct me if that's the case.

Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

I already have the systems in place to track stats of side characters exactly the same as main ones for specifically this reason. If it is requested enough, I will change her into a main LI.

I will say though, even if she doesn't make the cut to be a main LI, most of the side-characters will have their own sort of romance and plotlines to follow if you choose to. Rayne is already planned to be one such character.
