I have a couple suggestions to help the story flow better and make more sense in regards to Anna's love level and events:

1st

Anna is supposed to have had her first real sexual experience with the MC's dick when she hits 4 hearts in the studio and sucks it.  However, I have coasted on Anna with 3 hearts and hit Valentine's day and when you take her to the movies, she touches your dick as well as sucks you off in the theatre.  So that doesn't make any sense when she is still "scared" to touch it in the studio.  IF  possible, for each holiday,  you may need to add new lines of dialogue as well as need to  "gate" certain content with Anna  if you are not at enough hearts with her.  Valentine's day makes it feel like you HAVE to be at least 4 hearts for the blowjob scene to make sense.   But if you keep her timid and at bay and nothing super sexual happens because you are only at 3 hearts or  2 hearts, that flows better as a player.

2nd

This is essentially the same as the 1st point but its at the dairy farm.  You unlock it at 3 hearts, and can milk as much as you want to your hearts content.  With the milk coins, you buy Anna's cowprint suite and can do the photoshoot with her where....she sucks you off again.  Again, it doesnt make sense when in the main story, she doesn't dare to touch the MC's dick yet.  I would suggest either to not make her cowprint suite available to purchase until she has reached 4 hearts, change it to a simple regular photo shoot in the cowprint outfit if you only have 3 hearts with her, OR don't allow the dairy farm to open up to the MC until you reach 4 hearts, not 3.  

Just some QOL things that would kinda feel smoother overall in the gameplay.  Thanks

Finished the game without a walkthrough, played it blind, and can say that it can literally be a masterpiece.  If it's done and finished right, I would gladly pay 40 or 50 bucks for this game if you can give it enough content.  I already put 2 suggestions  in  1 earlier post but I would really like to emphasize now 1 glaring problem now that I have finished the game:  The pacing of the game.  You guys have made alot of great events, holidays, birthdays, etc on the calendar and yet I reached the end of Anna's love meter by 1 month and a half into it.  I had no idea what I was doing and yet got to her ending so freaking fast before I had a chance to truly enjoy all of the meat and potatoes of the game.  My suggestion would be to either increase her hearts to 10 and more events for her, or make it take longer to increase her hearts so that you have more time to live through the events.  Also, it feels more meaningful of an accomplishment when you earn that next heart.  It took a while to earn heart number 1 and 2...but then heart 3, 4, and 5 went by super fast.  If you can increase the number of events or the general grind for her hearts, then it increases the number of days you are forced to play through the game and therefore reach more holidays or birthday or whatever else you have planned.  I was playing blind with 0 walkthrough and if I can get through it too  quickly without trying, that is not good.  I get that its supposed to be about sex, but this game has so much potential to not just be a typical eroge, but a fucking legend of a game with multiple aspects that draw you in and make you want to play again and again like the Rance series.  I'm not even joking, I like this game that much.  I already spoke about making it harder to level up by increasing the xp cap and to get skills, and also make the money harder to come by so that you are not flying through the game at week 2 with enough money to buy the moon.  Seriously, its just the pacing that is a problem.  You fix the pacing to where it forces you to play a bit longer so you can experience most of what the game has to offer...it becomes God tier.  I love the mini games you made that break up the monotony of the day to day.   I love the various girls in it.  I love the writing, scenes, drawings, etc.  You guys have top notch caliber people working on this and I'm only giving critic to it because of how BADLY I want this game to be a 10/10 and how close you guys are to making it that way.  I have already highly recommended this game to friends and hope you guys keep up the good work!!  

First off let me begin with my first impression.  I genuinely ADORE this game!  You guys have done such a great job and I can see the potential for this game to be God tier, honestly.  The character style, quality of art, consistency, bravo!  I would love more animated sex scenes if possible though haha.  I am fully aware this game is only like 60-70% complete, but I want to give 2 of my honest criticisms and recommendations to fix them. 

1.   I just played through about 11 hours of the game and the biggest thing that bothered me was the mismatch in pacing between the money I have and where I am at in the game.  To be specific, the skill tree passive that allows you to idly sit and earn money is overpowered.  By week 4, I was already drowning in more money that I needed and I did not even begin leveling my passive skills on that specific skill tree until 9 level ups in.  I just BARELY got Anna to heart level 2 and I am already with too much money.  It made me feel like taking pics, gaining followers and subscribers for her page was a waste of time when I can just sit for a few mins and earn a ton of money.  I highly recommend toning it down by either increasing the amount of time needed before you earn cash.  Going from 1 minute to 3 or 4 mins.  OR by decreasing the amount of passive income per minute from the max of 1200 down to 600 or less.  Seriously, I felt like I had end game amounts of money before I was even 25% through the game.  I wasnt even at Christmas and I'm buying anything I want.  I would love to at least be forced to live through 1 year in the game time and experience all there is to off before I feel like I can buy ANYTHING and there is no point to earn cash.  This game is called starmaker, so I figured revenue should primarily come from the page for Anna and gain more income that way as long as you manage it well, which is more challenging yes, but also more rewardind.  Going through an amazing game like this with great events and characters, just to passively buy up anything I need without doing anything to earn it was a bummer. 

2.  I'm sure you guys are already aware of this so it might be a moot point, but some of the quests don't "complete".  I've trained with Phoenix in the gym at least 40 times WITHOUT FAILING the pump mini game.  Both regular training and super training, and yet the quest never completes in the quest book.  If there is something else supposed to be done other than what is already written there, then there needs to be more explanation or foot notes.  Or if the quest CANNOT complete because I chose NOT to go her route and have sex with them, then it needs to clear the quest out from the quest book, so that its not hanging there as if there is something I can do to finish it.  I'm not sure the cause of why it won't complete, but its confusing as a player.  

If you guys are already aware of these things or thought about them, then pay me no mind, I just think it would REALLY immerse the player more in the game play.  The best adult games I have ever played not only had good characters and story, but amazing game play as well.  Earning money is such a huge portion of the game play, please don't make it mindless zombie easy.
