Preview :
After the sadly known events and the reconstruction of the school, changes have been initiated.
Higher classes have been opened, and former students have been called, including you, Jetdusort, a very special student.
Coming from all the houses of Hogwarts, Hermione Engranger, Daphne Greenass, Ginny Wrigley and Luna Loveisgood, you will be the only boy following the withdrawal of all the others.

It's too early for a fair review, so I will comment here. So far it's basically a proof of concept. After some Voldemort-related disaster at Hogwarts, 5 former students are invited to return, live in a single dorm tower, and learn forbidden spells. These students are oversexed parodies of Hermione Granger, Ginny Weasley, Luna Lovegood and Daphne Greengrass, as well as the MC as the only male. Although this game is still very short, there are quite a few promising ideas, but also more branching than one would expect.

The graphics are surprisingly good for being AI generated. They are not 100% consistent with each other, but close enough.

The main issue here is with language. The game's original language is French. (English speakers should have no trouble switching to English after clicking "Préférences".) But even so, the French version is only marginally better than the English version. Both languages are seriously in need of a copy editor; sometimes it's not immediately clear what the text is even supposed to mean. (PS: The developer couldn't even decide on a consistent title. Even when the language is set to French, the title displayed on the main menu is in an approximation to English: "doctorate of forbidden magic". The technical title for Ren'Py -- ZIP file name and save file location -- is "forbiddenmagic". Neiter of which agrees with the ungrammatical title entered for the purposes of this site. In my opinion, the title really should be "PhD in Forbidden Magic", or at the very least "Doctorate in Forbidden Magic".)

Overall, I am looking forward to seeing where this goes. I wouldn't have thought that the world needs yet another Harry Potter parody AVN, but it seems I may have been wrong.

Stop. 0.2 is not equal to 0.20.

With this developer, apparently it is. Just look at the developer notes (talks about 0.10, 0.2 and 0.3) and changelog (listing versions 0.10 and 0.20 as the only ones existing). Quite a few developers treat version numbers as if they were floating point numbers, using a single decimal point. It's just that they are normally more consistent and not alternating between writing 0.2 and writing 0.20.
