Hey...
I'm not fanatic player of the visual novels and this is the new thing to me, and still discovering this genre. I tried only 3 games of this genre before. But I have tough criteria to match before I will invest my resources in to it and support the development.
That being said, I gave it a try and oh my my...
Before I played I went thru the few pages of discussion and found out pretty weird thing. There were few pages of criticism about the scene where "Jade" was introduced to you. I can tell from most of the commentators who didn't liked such "introduction" that they are not even 18 years old or they didn't had any experience with the communication with the opposite sex. From my personal experience I really liked such introduction because it described potential and personality of her, also the real situation from the real life how women/girls behaving with the men if they are in group of close female friends and they have playful character. I have personally experienced situation were I have been "gang up" and felt myself played. So this why I liked such introduction of "Jade" and felt immersed in to it. So my advise would be for developer ignore the people who crying about it because "they have no life experience" yet. You doing GREAT!
There is no point in saying that developer defining new standards of this genre by quality of the image. It's a fact. I played few other with high quality of the image novels, but this game is definitely defining new standards. My applause to developer and respect to your skills.
In the way how developer expressing emotions of the characters (fatigue, sadness, anger, frustration, love, sympathy, lust) is so beautiful and makes me feel as a player/reader mixed feelings and developing connection with characters on personal level. My applause. Thank you for that it was interesting experience.
For the rest... The fact that many of YOU experiencing difficulties in choosing the "girls" due to that you feel "sad", it just shows that developer managed to create a game/novel, build characters, express them in the way you had developed a "shallow" personal attachment to them, speaks volumes...
Thank you for such nice experience TLL.
