I totally missed the 'three perspectives' thing so it was really confusing for the first few minuets until I realized what was going on.
Yeah, I read fast so I usually progress the text manually. That has made me skip through a transition that denotes a perspective change a couple of times, making me confused for the first couple of lines until I backtrack. A way to fix this is, if someone clicks while there is a transition, then that would bring up the new character we are playing as.

Alternately, having the text be the same color as the character's names could help out too, so you know who's saying what instantly.
Gotta say though, really enjoyed this demo, the writing's good and the pictures are quite nice.

I spoke about this issue with the dev, he recognises this is a problem and is moving towards a solution that will make it easier to keep track of who's perspective you are observing at any time, even if you skip the transitions or come back to an earlier saved game (where you might be unsure where you left off).

Doesn't look like there are any plans for NTR, especially with the way the story progresses near the end of the demo. Also, the guy in this game isn't the typical pervert that you maybe expect, he's just a chill dude who's smart enough not to pass on the girls that are showing interest in him. It's actually the girls who are more perverted :ROFLMAO:

Yeah this is interesting but it really needs a "who am I right now" indicator. Especially when it switches without warning. I was reading as Jesse and now suddenly I'm thinking about what Jesse is doing? When did the switch happen, and who am I now?

I still have no idea whose perspective it was driving the car in the opening.

The dev is currently trying to solve this problem. Asked me to forward this link so you can speak your mind on the issue as well:
