FEATURES AND ISSUES (MINOR AND MAJOR)

The game was really promising, it has a good potential, but due to many issues it's barely playable for now.

So the good things are:
- The graphics and animations are really great, all the visuals pretty nice, and erotic scenes are smoking hot, my deepest respect to the artists!
- Storyline and dialogs are good too, it's pretty interesting and funy. No matter what other says - many times I've seen sooo much worse, believe me.

The main problem is technical part of the game, coding and optimization. Here's some bugs and issues that I found so far:
- The game runs slowly even at good PC, I often had freezes and sometimes the game crashed with some error. And again, sometimes it reeeally slow.
- Save/load system sometimes make some funy stuff (like loading wrong save file).
- If I go to the menu and try to start a new game, it loads the last save instead.  (solution: you should close and restart the game)
- Settings are not doing what I want to: the game does not remember settings that I've just set and resets them to default immediately (or after restart).
- The names and relations of your choice are not working in the game, it just uses default names anyway.
- But even with default names and relations, in the dialogs it sometimes replaced with title {name} or =reaction\ or something like that.
- Also in the dialog/text screen there are problems with its interface: the buttons "menu" , "auto" and "log" doesn't work at all, and there is no button "back" or button for quick skip. Please think about adding it.
- But what was the worst discovery is that the button "Esc" just skips any current dialog with all decisions you could make in it. Esc just skips the content entirely. I used to expect this button to bring up a menu, so I press it automatically several times, and then was forced to load previous save. Also that means that you can't save the game during the dialog.
- Also there are some sound bugs, water in the shower is always running, and there is no music in the game except at the world map and main menu. That's sad.
- And there's some minor bugs of course.

By the way, I have the latest patreon version for PC (Windows), and I think that despite all its advantages and good sides, this game doesn't cost any money in its current condition. But still it's very promising and interesting project. My dear developers, please fix all this bugs and issues, maybe switch the engine - and it will be so nice and pleasant!

Wanna make some additions to this, no offence.
- The quick save system doesn't work properly, like at all.
- Sometimes dialogs just stuck, and all you can do is skip it or re-load last save.
...But it's better than crash lmao/ 
- Also there's some issues with face animations in dialogs, particularly with girls' eyes.

aaand there's missing one scene with Lily in the gallery. The one at the pool, with floating chair... It should be right after 'relief' scene.

now that I downloaded it and created an account will it play
