Having fully played it it's great so far. the menu/UI layout is very clean and i appreciate a built-in hints system (that usually requires a wiki or a mod so kudos there)

I'd make the dark theme the default, and lower the volume on the static-y transition sounds used in some of the dark segments.

Thanks for the kind words! I really wanted to make the game as intuitive as possible when it came to UI/hints, so I'm glad they've gone down well!

Adding a light/dark theme button on the main menu and making it a little clearer for the next update :)

For the static transitions, do you think it'd be worth having them on a separate volume slider in the settings so people can adjust accordingly? It's been an idea floating in my head for a while, so may try it (even though it'd be a LOT of work)

I'm sure people would appreciate that. It's not that it's super loud per-se, they're just louder than anything else (barring the moans)

Don't burn yourself out this early in development lol
Regularity often is more favourable over trying to get stuff out quick and changing schedules 5 times a year because life gets in your way, as people will learn to know what to expect. Some will lament anyways, wether you milk out your Patrons like Milfy City or release content punctually every fortnight like the guy from Crimson High.

In other words, find your groove that you are comfortable with and doesn't leave your RL in the dust now and that will leave a more positive dev cycle later down the line. :WeSmart:

I guess it'll just be a bit of experimenting finding a good work-dev balance, and seeing what I can accomplish regarding development through a specific timeframe. I think a monthly update plan is still viable - as some volume of work will be completed over this period of time - although sizes of updates can then vary upon schedule and such.

Either way, I'm excited to show everything I've got planned down the line, and wish I had all the time in the world to see that to fruition! :)
