about this game, now there are only rumors, nothing concrete, some say that it will also become a Hard-NTR, hahahah
I would be worried if the dev didn't clearly say all of the quotes I'm including below. Should this become "Hard-NTR", it would seemingly go against everything Torimiata has consistently stated as his vision for the story. Either keep on dreaming, or, pray for the dev to entirely betray the ideals he's espoused throughout all of the development of this game. Either way, I'm rooting against you :)

This is an NTS focused story so a degree of involvement with others happens at some point, but at the end of it, there's a loving relationship. There's no full NTR route, this is fundamentally a love story (with unusual dynamics).

However, the degree of how close to the flame, emotional tension and other fun stuff is part of the narrative and something players will have to experience.

Choices do matter, but admittedly, not much by now and probably not as much as in other games (as in completely different routes), as I believe they would feel artificial if forced in widely different paths.
It is loving and exploring but there's some corruption in the sense of what Ayumi is capable of doing to fulfil MC's kink and how that grows over time.

The two routes will play with different types of emotions and player preferences.
No point in preaching to the choir but fictional stories and all that.

The point is to explore some fun kinky situations, not follow a blueprint for actual relationships. Perhaps even playing out fantasies you can't or wouldn't want to try in real life. Half the popular games out there have unrealistic harems too.

This is a happily-ever-after tale, however unconventional. A lot of the concerns raised seem to project personal insecurities, rather than considering the actual storyline and character dynamics being portrayed.
It's interesting to hear how people interpret different scenes and I understand that there can be multiple ways to perceive them. However, it's unconventional and non-vanilla but this is a loving NTS story at heart.

Ayumi is gradually learning how to tease the MC, but this new dynamic in their relationship is something that they are both discovering together. Together. All the characters in the story have their own evolving arcs, and their growth is an essential aspect of the narrative.

In fact, whether Ayumi takes on a more proactive role [Tease Queen] or a more passive role [Submissive Pet] in the game is somewhat up to the player's choice. This concept was introduced in the 0.5.x release, made clearer in 0.5.1, and will be further fleshed out in the upcoming 0.5.2 release (soon... it was challenging but important to get it right before any development on 0.6.x)

when it was revealed that tori was going back and "fixing" old scenes, i said on july 23:

that makes it sound like a major delay, not a small one. my guess is the release isn't dropping until end of august or early september...
and the dev replied and made it seem like "early september" was unfairly pessimistic:

I don't anticipate a two-month delay or anything remotely similar, it's just not gonna happen in July, but I'm working on getting a clearer timeline soon so I can do the typical 'countdown' post. It's not all scenes that need work.

Knew it from the moment he posted that out of place/context post on the 26, if he was gonna release the update on august like planned it wouldn't have been there. You have to read through the lines. Hope we can still get it this week.

yup i had the same thought but the simps will soon arrive to tell us that noticing patterns like this is rude and unfair.

the update being late is fine, it's just crazy how EVERY deadline and estimate is missed. it's remarkably consistent inconsistency
The remarkably consistent inconsistency does suck, I agree, but I'd rather have it done right that rushed. With how many posts there are about it, though, constantly, I wonder if some people would prefer corners be cut lol it's not like there aren't other games they could be playing to tide themselves over!

Was the end of august thing official or something made up in the echo chamber?

Ngl getting tired even when I haven't followed the progress too closely
