Your game is not going to go anywhere if this is how you treat your playerbase. Contrary to what you may believe, people dont want to start multiples new games from beginning to end just for 1-2 scenes, regardless if your game has the most enjoyable gameplay; its repetitive grind for absolutely no reason - so letting players have flexible save options is in your best interest.
Aside from that, I dont find the art bad, its unique, i will give you that. My biggest complaint would be the eyes of characters, a lot of them have a metallic sort of look. I cant really use any other words to describe it, but its one of those things you just know something is off.
