Fixed the 'no' too
Well, given the average F95 frequenter, I'd say it's catering to the audience
Gotta say...
Kinda sadistic of you, Dev, to use Hexidecimal as the means of communicating info about Iris.

So far, yes - but that space will be filled
Planned to include, but had to cut development a little short
Just revealed a new character for 1.7.0 over on

- give it a look Great, ANOTHER characters that will be drip fed content in a snail's pace. How about you work on the dozen already in?
Orrrrr I could do both
But seriously, thanks for the feedback. I understand the frustration with the pace of updates - but as this isn't my full-time job, there's only so much of my life I can dedicate to it. I also want to balance content for pre-established characters, whilst introducing new ones to keep things fresh and exciting.
If you'd like to see faster updates, consider supporting! If I can make this a full-time gig, I can dedicate so much more time to the game's development and deliver content at a faster pace
Don't care about the update frequency, you have over a dozen characters, most of which have fuck all content and plan to introduce more, while also having the clubs with zero content. Introducing more is not "keeping it fresh and exciting", it's spreading the already meager content even thinner, and that's while also trying to have a pretense of an over-arching plot.
What I see only makes me want to drop it, not support.

I get your concern about content being spread over many characters, and your point is valid - and it's something that I am addressing. In the upcoming update, each main character will be brought up to 5 events each - whereas almost all side characters only have 1 event to their name. The numbers of events will also increase at a much slower rate for side characters than they will for main characters - meaning much more of a focus is put on the main story characters.
I can also see potential concern that two characters have been added consecutively, too. This was not planned, and will certainly not be a regular thing. There are not very many more characters I plan to add to the game, and those planned will be much, much further down the line.
At the end of the day, I want to make sure each update brings something for everyone. If there's a specific character or club that you feel that I could potentially prioritise more, feel free to send me a DM so I can keep it in mind for the future.
Thanks again for your feedback

I love the writing and I love the dialogue. The renders and the girls look great too but i'm finding these days all these great looking VNs but once I boot em up everybody talks like they're 5. The dialogue is refreshing and it keeps me engaged and not wanting to just skip to content. The diverse personalities are fun as well. It's definitely a slow burn but it's not a terrible one. Oh and the music is fantastic. It's another one of those things that helps keep me invested. Might also listen to some of it outside of the game. I think I read a comment where you said you made the music for this game? Do you have any of it posted on youtube music? And lastly, the "horror" bits are fun too. Kinda harkens to some Omori bits imo but more unsettling than outright horrifying. It's been a fun play so far and i'm excited to see what's next.
Hey dude! Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it
I too have found that most VN's nowadays tend to have kinda crap dialog, and that's something I aimed to challenge when developing this game. I'm by no means a brilliant writer, but I've enjoyed trying to challenge myself with it - and hopefully will continue to improve as time progresses.
And yeah - I'm quite an experienced audio engineer - so I really focused on the music within the game, writing many of the tracks included in the game, with the rest being specifically curated, edited and mixed. There's none of it currently on streaming services, but it's something I am considering.
And lastly - horror. Went for the more psychological side, and the comparison to Omori is certainly something I'll take
Thanks once again for your feedback dude!

Well brilliant or not, your writing is engaging and makes me care about the characters on a more substantial level. I can definitely tell as I progressed further that it improved more and more. That kind of effort is what keeps me coming back to games like this. It'd be easy to just make a basic porn game loaded with shallow sex scenes but working your way up to them after getting to know the characters just makes it that much more rewarding!
Well if you happen to put em on streaming i'd love to add em to some of my playlists.
Turns out I failed the last Sakura and Kirei events and that shit jumpscared the hell out of me lmao. The concept is creative and the girls catching themselves losing control around you adds that extra unsettling vibe that things aren't as they seem. It's been a fun play so far!
