If you're referring to German or English or other languages, I can't say, it's possible, because I'm not an expert in those languages either. However, if it's French, it's not a unisex name. I've mentioned these feminine versions above. You can check for French, I'm telling the truth that's all I'm sure of, having double-checked in the meantime before writing what I said above. So-called neutral or unisex first names are relatively rare in French, certain usages or forms having been completely lost, our language often favors masculine forms for a neutral use of a word, but it's quite categorical about the masculine-feminine distiction three quarters of the time.
In France, for example, feminist activists are fighting to impose feminine variations on certain job names or words in everyday use, because they feel that our language doesn't encourage the use of feminine terms enough, considering that this is a sign of sexism and male domination that persists in our language.
P.S: I reconfirm it to you again after having once again checked the use of the first name in French, and it is always "Eugène" in the masculine, "Eugénie" or "Eugénia" in the feminine.
P.S 2 :
I saw in response to another comment that you cited as a source a Google search showing only Asian women (very strangely actually) mentioned with the first name "Eugene", but this is probably a random transliteration of their first name in the Latin alphabet, if not perhaps also in phonetic format, so it is undoubtedly unreliable for Asian languages (Chinese, Korean, Japanese) “translated” with Western characters. Above all, I think that the native speakers of these languages do not necessarily master the nuances of our languages (and conversely we do too of course for their languages) and therefore errors of this type are entirely possible. This example therefore does not seem very relevant to me, if at all. I say this of course without intending to be condescending towards native speakers of Asian languages.
P.S 2.1 : Apparently it is indeed a fault of transliteration from Asian languages to Latin/Western languages, we especially see in your example images of the actress and singer of the South Korean group music S.E.S, Kim Yoo-Sin from her real first name at birth, and whose stage name is "Eugene", which she chose out of a desire for Western romanization based on phonetic principles inherited from her native language.
As a reminder, page 16 at the very bottom for the Google images search capture, the example I am responding to here and which does not seem relevant, other than being an example likely to mislead the person who might come across it : https://f95zone.to/threads/dilemma-of-devotion-ch-2-ep-2-pulsehavenstudios.197755/post-13436284
Here I quote some things I found about how Korean works compared to our Western languages:
“female names generally have soft “vowel” sounds like 은 (eun), 연 (yeon), 아 (a), 예 (ye) while male names tend to have fairly strong “consonant” sounds like 석 ( seok), 준 (jun), 철 (cheol) or 혁 (hyeok)."
"Romanization of names
If you read Hangeul, the Korean script, you may have noticed inconsistencies in how Korean names are written in Latin characters.
Indeed, the romanization of Korean surnames is old and has often been kept by default over the generations. As a result, you are definitely pronouncing them the wrong way.
김 - Kim is pronounced more like [gim]
이 - Lee is pronounced simply
박 - Park is pronounced more like [bak]
최 - Choi is pronounced [chwé]"
"When it comes to first names, it is generally the person themselves who chooses how they want their name to be romanized. Since Korean sounds are different from foreign sounds, there isn't really a single answer, it's more about aesthetics."
"Note that no matter which romanized name you choose, it always represents a fairly close but never exact version of the Korean pronunciation. You must therefore refer to Korean writing to know how to pronounce a name."
Theses informations comes from this site (sorry it's in French but no doubt you will find it elsewhere, or you can use translation software to translate the page into your language)

You can make the argument that in american lingo it is not but as your comment itself states it's a unisex in worldwide regardless.
Now we could make a name changing patch for something this trivial if you want but I'm quite sure you're here for the girls not their names so much.
Anyway at least you still have a logical explanation other than the genius people that were here earlier calling this game "woke"
lmao like did I post rainbow flags over my game or something , there isn't even a gay reference.

As the saying goes in my language, the exception confirms the rule (the norm), which means that if an exception is formulated as such, then there must be a rule, from which this exception can derogate. Which again means that a rule usually does apply, despite singular exceptions.
I have a site to recommend which lists the usage, origin and countries in which existing surnames are used. Here is the address:
You can also see from a map that, while the name exists almost everywhere in the world, it's mostly represented in North America, Western Europe and, not surprisingly, in African countries where English and French are still in use long after colonization. Everywhere else, the use of this first name is very marginal or almost non-existent.
A quick look at this same site showed me that Muskaan is a first and last name that exists in India and in the Hindi language.
On the other hand, a cross-search showed me that the first name Bituka doesn't exist apriori in Russian, Google translate gives a term meaning "intestine" in Filipino, the classic Google doesn't give any convincing result for such a first name in Russian and the Forebears site doesn't give any etymology or translation but points to a few countries in the world on the map where the term would exist (DRC, Kenya, India, Philippines, Papua New Guinea).
To answer your question about my personal inclinations, I'm not a racist, misogynist, homophobe or conservative. I think of myself as someone who is sufficiently open and tolerant of the whole LGBT spectrum, ethnicities, cultures and religions in general, without really pigeonholing myself into any one category. I'm not really interested in the frenzied debates there can be on questions of identity, for me it's often a dead end and a means of imposing views that are often very reactionary. Everyone is free to be whoever he, she, them wants to be. It's not up to me to define which social category someone belongs to.
Moreother, I don't mind games that are "woke", gay or trans-friendly in their narrative themes. Although the term "woke" bothers me because it's a stupid term that repulses everything and is used to denigrate almost everyone.
What motivates my intervention is rather the search for precision and authenticity, which seem to me to be important in defining the coherence and verisimilitude of a story and its protagonists (whether the setting is completely fictional, semi-fictional or, on the contrary, completely fantastic). A story has to be coherent at all times and well constructed, otherwise it breaks a kind of pact of trust between author and reader, even in a fantasy story where elements that might normally seem implausible must appear coherent in the structure of the work and the constituent elements of the narrative. And above all, here you use real-world elements (our world), names and cultural references that exist in principle in our world but are misapprehended, misunderstood or wrongly used in a register that doesn't correspond to them. Having said that, I had already pointed out a number of inconsistencies and errors (cultural references, names, syntax, narrative incoherence or implausibility) of the same type in your other visual novel, not so much a reproach as a simple observation.
I recommend proofreading, always fact-checking, cross-checking sources of information, working on drafts, having your work read by someone or a panel of readers, having someone help you with grammatical and spelling corrections, and having someone take care of the translation part of the text. I try to be constructive rather than abrasive in general, sorry if that seems to be the case. So, I'm not saying it's your case and I know I come across as a pain in the ass (^^), it's just that I just can't stand people who are incapable of questioning themselves out of bad faith or intellectual laziness, and therefore those who stubbornly refuse to take constructive remarks or criticism to heart in order to improve when presented with them.
So I never claimed that first names were unisex on a global scale, otherwise you've misread me or misunderstood me because I wasn't clear enough, in which case I'm sorry. I told you with certainty that this was not the case for French (it's my mother tongue), with a degree of certainty necessarily a little less in English, and for much more distant languages I can have no certainty at all, because that's impossible for me. I only then noticed that your other example mentioned earlier (your Google Images search capture) only shows photos of Asian women, a priori the same person in most if not all the photos displayed, whether it's a stage name or a pseudonym resulting from the romanization of a Korean term; this same romanization of Korean follows rules that are sometimes confusing if not vague, and which Koreans often choose for reasons of their own (meaning or etymology, aesthetic criteria). In all likelihood, this choice is based on phonetic criteria, as the word contains vowels, and sounds that are generally associated with feminine characteristics in their language.

Hmm , would you like to proof read our game?
In exchange we can give you the premium edition for free per release.
That is is of course if you are interested in it and the game , please let me know as you seem like someone who's well versed in lingo.

I haven't made it that far in the game to determine if it's Woke or not. I just was caught off guard by her name being Eugene, of course, there's it's a culture thing. Here in the America it's commonly a guy name, when I think of the name "Eugene" I see this guy:
View attachment Actor-Eugene-Levy-2023.webp
But to each it's own.
Links will be deleted and updated tonight for version 2.5
This is mostly the UI upgrade update , most of the things people asked for have been added and content is relatively less than our usual size but still does have photoshoot with claire and julie scenes in class and stuff.
We mostly wanted to make sure no more UI errors or bugs existed and as you can see in changelog we took care of most of it.

Have you added shortcut buttons for faster, less tedious movement around the map ? The navigation arrows, whether in the house or elsewhere on the map, aren't very practical for quick and easy movement. In my opinion, you should add shortcuts to visit the various rooms in the house, include a shortcut for the map, and perhaps another for very frequent locations, such as the university, since the MC goes there every day to work, and it's above all a way of simplifying the player's life.
Vast areas like the university would benefit from shortcuts to get from one wing of the building to another.
I was thinking of a practical suggestion to replace those big, annoying navigation arrows: why not replace them with large clickable areas that are highlighted to make them easier for the player to find ? I've seen other sandbox VNs use this kind of approach.

That is the map button.
If you are inside the house or any structure you have the ability to go to map immediately.
Secondly the shortcut thing we're considering but we gotta find a neat spot for it , since remember the game's UI has to look clean too not just a clutter screen icon mess.
and lastly they are highlighted so I'm not sure what you meant by the last one.

A simple idea I had was to replace the navigation arrows used to move from one room to another with a simple clickable zone, spotlighted (i.e. illuminated or underlined) so that it's immediately visible when you move the mouse over it. This has the advantage of providing a wider area to move the mouse over, and makes clicking easier, making the player's gestures simpler and more fluid (the key is to minimize the time the player spends on an action to get from one place to another, or from one scene to another).
As for the question of shortcuts, other games have integrated icons or thumbnails representing each of the visitable rooms in a location on an interface (often placed at the top of the screen, but other alternatives exist), so that the player simply has to take a quick look and select the room they wish to visit, without having to do everything manually.
The game experience is always enhanced when players don't have to perform too many repetitive, time-consuming tasks to get straight to the point of what interests them in a game's gameplay or cutscenes, especially when these involve unimportant tasks.
P.S : On another note, I noticed that the dialogue interface (particularly towards the beginning of the game, in the prologue, I think) overlapped a cinematic sequence in which the MC's name appeared on his head in the middle of an exhibition scene. I'd suggest moving, relocating the dialogue interface elements to one side of the screen rather than in the middle, so as not to interfere with the action.

No , photo studio should be unlocked and you can visit that place even if old save.
Slow progression is game's nature and vag sex is in gallery
Secondly lana's quest means to continue the main story which is doing therapy but reminder you can only continue the main canon story if your loyalty is 95 or above.

I did the first therapy, talk with someone on the phone, then the MC wakes up the next morning but nothing happens and my phone is full of messages like at the start of the game... did I mess up with the chronological order of the events ?
No , it must've given you a message that shows that this is the end of the version or something.
Episode 2 isn't complete yet , basically if you remain loyal you can play this game as how the prologue was which is the vn format.
That results in its own exclusive characters such as lana , shelly and etc
It's done so to give you replay value whether you pick to remain loyal , corrupt , or go ahead and try a new life with one of the nicer girls in sandbox like zoey , jane , kimiko and etc
