From the expressions, wow what a lot of work that had to be) to the story, all the way down to the ending of Chapter 1 setting up Chapter 2. Scripts, art, sprites all look and feel like the bigger developers teams work, Congratulations.

2022-06-09 14:00:58 +0000 UTCThanks for checking the game out. Yep, it is definitely early in the story. Do you have any renders in particular that you thought were extra grainy? A lot of the renders have what's called depth of focus added which gives the effect of focusing on something and kind of blurring out things not being focused on with realism as the goal. What did you think about the interactions with the girls? Did you check out both "go to party" and "stay home?" There is an interesting interaction in the "stay home" path. Did you get a chance to check out the phone + features like photogram? Ashley is one of my favorites too.

2022-04-28 15:41:49 +0000 UTCI think it is too early say anything about the game's story yet. So, one in thing about the renders. I wonder if there is a way to make them more sharp. They looked little bit grainy now. For, example in game's overview/progress -screen in the end, character's don't look that way. So, I assume there has to be some kind of problem in transfer process. If you compare them you can see the difference. About the characters, I think Ashley is my favorite at moment.
