Well i assume MC and his girlfriends (future wifes) want to finish high school and college first before starts making children...
'college' and 'high school' completely fantastical constructs in a completely fantastical game anyway (running a cafe that only opens in the afternoon? Ruling families? Randomly aged MC simultaneously attending educational establishment and running said cafe? The entire story is away with the fairies even by hentai harem standards). I'm sure the dev doesn't fancy the hassle of actually creating preg content or at least not until the standard waifus-ever-after epilogue. But there's no need to break immersion (for some of us) by getting all matter-of-fact about it.

This is a "sex cafe" but actually it's restaurant and there is no sex in it and it's not so cozy, Mc seems very stressed by it lol
If my chef friends are to be believed, the most surprising part of the restaurant is that it's cocaine-free.

On a more serious note, I really liked the update. I especially appreciate the fact that the story continues to give the girls ample time to bounce off each other (how's that for a double entendre?)

Oh he can be trusted ! I also worked 10 years in a restaurant and it's true. There is no cooking without cocaine :p

You clearly aren't immersed at all if you're getting this upset because Cosy wants to include very normal topics like birth control in his story. There must not be enough scenes for you to fap to, since you're very concerned about what are and are not "hentai harem standards" for storytelling. You'd probably be happier just watching said hentai and fapping yourself stupider, so off you go.

if you make routes you either double the dev's workload or dilute the content. Making a decent game with routes is almost like making two games, you can include choices for text flavor but that's also way too much work.
And then they inevitably complain as each update takes longer to release (or dev keeps same release schedule but each update has less content) because choices exponentially increase the number of scenes that need to be made.

including choices for text flavor is not that much work especially because the writer can determine how deep they want to go with the differentiation. let's not infantilise people and act like any effort is monumental. having multiple routes is certainly a significant multiplier of effort and given how long it takes for even small updates from most devs i'm not sure they're able to handle it.

Flavor text that only affects the conversation is easy, flavor text affecting the entire game is more of a pain in the ass than anything.

Then people bitch that choices are meaningless and insignificant... instead of worrying about the dev being infantilized you just make or find the game you want to play, instead of recommending changes to a game that's doing fine.

is this a sex cafe where employees have sex with customers in a pseudo-brothel?
Nah.

High school student with ability to cook, inherits a cafe (more of a restaurant really) and hires girls from school to help him run it.

He's quite dominant, and the girls gradually develop into into his harem.

There is a lot more to it than that (it's greatest strength is excellent writing), and for mine it's one of the best AVNs around. Certainly worth downloading the free version and checking it out.

I do find Rachel cute, I have always had a weakness to short haired girls after all.
Her personality is awful right now, but it will be explained why, and Jack will make her turn around.
Have more faith on Cosy, guys!

This game is good to bad it is a kinetic novel, and it could have been so much better.
Not to call you out in particular, as I see this sentiment shockingly often.

People who think this way, do you read a novel and then complain it wasn't written as one of those Choose Your Own Adventure stories? Do you watch a film and wish for intermittent halts in the action to make a choice yourself?

This work is not a game and is not analogous to a game. It is most like a print novel, published first as a serial. The author has composed a linear story and shared it for interested people to read.

Here, consequential reader decisions would be nothing but a dilution. We're experiencing events in a group of characters' lives, as we do in a novel, a manga, or even a movie. The choice you make as a reader is simply whether to continue.

I'm grateful that we don't have to contend with false choices or shallow branching storylines in Cosy Cafe. There's a pure vision at work here, and every bit of effort poured into the story benefits every person who chooses to read.
