Just finished the prologue! I think this game has a lot of potential and reminds me a lot of of older visual novels. But I do have some issues with the pacing as the story feels scattered at times. I understand that English was not the original language but regardless, it still feels a bit messy. Its almost as if things happen just to happen, there isn't any build up or why it occurs. I think you tried to fit a lot of things into the prologue when you should've let it develop slowly. That way you can build tension.
*SPOILERS*
In the beginning I thought it was starting out okay, but I do get the vibe that she's a Mary Sue type. I don't think that there's anything wrong with those type of characters, but it seems as though every character we meet is extremely attracted to her. With Peter especially, I want to understand why he's so attracted to her, and apparently "stops" bullying Gabriel for a period of time, but then now he's doing it again? Peter as a character is just there to start off the story, and he feels confusing to me. But his "relationship" with Lilith confused me even more. I understand her motive, but everything just happens too fast. She gets Gabriel's number> then receives Peters number> the only a day or two passes and they're already dating? Only a few days ago he was berating her and telling her to dress normal. If her plan was to kill him I think it would've made more sense if she were to adapt to his version of "normal" and then kill him. And I also would've liked to see Lilith and Gabriel interact more, throughout the story they rarely interact and I want to see chemistry between them. They have a lot of similarities but there's not enough to make me see them as a couple.
I apologize if this seems a lot ahaha, the game is still in it's development so maybe by the time the game releases my criticisms wont matter anymore. I really do hope the best for this game, the art is what attracted me the most plus the characters are really pretty. Goodluck on making the game<3

i love this game so much, I played the first one like 2 year ago and it was amazing and I was so happy to find out there's a 2nd one!! I relate with so many of the characters like Diya and Noelle, I'm so happy to find this game. The ending part made me so happy I cried!!:D Idk if there's gonna be a 3rd game but it would be amazing!! I have no idea what it would be about but maybe it's on the other characters? Like Liz! She's so cute!! Or maybe it would be about their future? Either way if there isn't a third game then I'm still really happy about the 2 games released!!! This makes me really happy and also made me realize things about myself!!!
