Two huge issues with this one.
First is the spelling. This VN is in desperate need of some proofreading. Grammar errors and misspellings in nearly every sentence often make it very hard to take any of this seriously. It makes the whole thing feel cheap as if the dev doesn't care about their own work.
Second, the engine. Can't rollback, saving on choices is bugged, I couldn't find a key to hide text, clicking on UI buttons often advances text instead as if they were misaligned and the usual Ren'py options, such as skipping only seen text, are missing. I don't know if it would be easy to switch over to Ren'py but I would certainly like to see that happen.

Aside from that, there's potential here. God knows there aren't nearly enough lesbian focused VNs/games around and this one, aside from the careless grammar, is decently written enough to make me see characters instead of just genitals.

The good:

- good renders and the girls are hot. Just what I like to see in these kinds of games
- no patreon. There's hope that we can enjoy a game with all the artistic freedoms we pervs crave for
- female protagonist. Can't have enough of those
- good writing so far. Nothing special, but better than average

The bad

- storyline: very generic and boring. Shy, clueless virgin gets corrupted. Not good.
- pace: Much build up is missing. We jump right into the action, which doesn't feel organic or realistic.

The hope:

- as usual, I hope for some interesting dom/sub-dynamics. Not the usual BDSM-stuff, something more interesting, like non-con and blackmail, forcing the straight mc into lesbian sex, one-sided pleasure and so on.

Good start, I'll keep an eye on it.

Not a bad start, there is a good chunk of story to get to know several characters/future L.I I suppose.
The story and the models are fine and has potential as a corruption game. We will see how many customization options or paths we have for Vivian, i.e. be dominant or submissive.

It would be interesting to know what we can expect in terms of content, I know that lesbian is the central part but at the level of kinks we don't know what we can expect, vanilla? incest? bdsm? fff? ffm?
The interface is quite basic it seems like a renpy game even if it isn't, static models on a background to develop the story and renders for the most interesting parts. It's not a bad combination if this speeds up the development.

Overall is a good start, I want to see more of Evilin.

Shy, clueless virgin
She isn't a virgin or clueless just shy. She mentioned she's missing sex several times.

- pace: Much build up is missing. We jump right into the action,
You've lost me on that one.

It starts off meeting her friend, how much more build up do you need?

We don't need anymore ultra slow paced shit like wife and a mother. One of those is bad enough.

It has about as much narrative build-up as "High Life", and that was a well-paced game that could have been something special had the devs not abandoned it.

Thank you, and so long as you did not blow Evaline off she will have a good bit of content in the next update (very different depending on whether you helped her cheat or chose to help her study).
As far as kinks go, I am intending on casting a pretty wide net. Yes there will be incest(with the mom) yes there will be fff, harem, there is a path that will either be started in this next update or next that will go into bdsm.

So in an attempt not to spam the thread. Here is an update from my page:

Plans for this game and others.:
So I had intended early on that this would be a pure game, meaning no futa or anything crazy like that. However I do plan on making that part of future games so be forewarned. In terms of fetishes for this game I will list off several that plan on being introduced even if not implemented yet.
Incest, MILF Harem, Corruption, Blackmail, Romance, Dating, Cheating, NTR(sort of), FemDom, Interracial.

Now here is a list of things I will never do:
Bestiality, loli(even 300 year old ones), sissy, and I will add more if I think of any.

Also since it is already here anyway and subscribestar is dragging their feet anyway. here is a link to the 32bit version of the game.

She isn't a virgin or clueless just shy. She mentioned she's missing sex several times.
That might be her background story, but the archetype she embodies, the impression I got from her, is a shy, clueless virgin. The way she dresses, the way she acts.

You've lost me on that one.
The first scene, with the mom, is already about her slutty client. The scene in the art gallery was ok. Then we jumped to a disco where bff and her boyfriend get touchy. Then we go to a sex shop and buy a dildo.

What I'm missing here is the build up: what do the characters do normally? How is the relationship between mom and daughter in their every day life? What are mc's interests? What is the dynamic between her and her bff?
Instead, the storyline jumps right into the sexualized scenes. Why not give the story more time to breathe?
The mysterious woman entered the story too early and the second scene with the sex shop came too early, too, imho. More character development and more background scenes before the actual sexual scenes would benefit the narrative.

(Just as an example: when mc was asked whether she has a dildo, I- the player- didn't know the answer. Instead of just telling me that she doesn't, I would have liked to have a scene where it is shown. Show, don't tell.
Of course, I think not having a dildo reinforces the aforementioned archetype of the shy, clueless virgin, so if the author doesn't want her to be seen this way, he should let her have some basic sex toys. But it's not my story, so not having a dildo works fine if you want her to be said archetype)


We don't need anymore ultra slow paced shit like wife and a mother. One of those is bad enough.
I think there is much space between AWAM's slow pace and starting with sexualized stuff right off the bat. Take "Good Girl gone bad" that did it better. "Buying a dildo" and "being corrupted" came later in the story, after we had some "normal" scenes with the character and got to know her and her surroundings better.

"being corrupted"
I got a different vibe.

What happened there is similar to a lot os stories I hear from other lesbians. They started dating men because it was the "norm" and that's what girls did but it was never amazing then they met a woman that made them feel so much different and that started them down the road to pussy munching.

Wasn't my story, I always knew but I hear it a lot from other rug munchers.

Sure there is bound to be a corruption path, I think possibly a little supernatural thrown in following a line Tara said about humans plus she gave off the succubus vibe (although I could be very overthinking that).

Kissing a woman and liking it and having fantasties comes across as more of an awkening than corruption but I think corruption will come if you follow either Tara's route or the racer girl. Possibly the harem route may involve a little corruption, if you pick the dominant choice. Can't imagine a sub with a harem.

Though it's only an intro so far, I really liked it.
The art is lovely, the filter used on the characters gives it kind of an "Offcuts" look.
The women are all beautiful in their own ways, and the choice of outfits makes them look very good.
All the text needs a serious proofreading, though.
I'll eagerly wait for the next updates of this game. (y)

Interesting. A lot of work, a lot of branching, needs a lot of brain power. I'd support it, maybe. But Paypal only. ---
Possible bug: There seems to exist some side branch "Go to the party with Mom as Sisters" but it cannot be reached with this version. I think the story should branch out when deciding about the sleepover. But it doesn't.

Oh wow! So there IS a branching choice there, I feel so stupid. The switch there was to change scenes and I accidentally told it to switch to the wrong one. Am uploading the fix right now.

Here you go.
Change log:
Some minor improvements to the font and fixed a few spelling errors.
Fixed the switch in the cafe. Now when you don't have a sleep over with Des you should go home alone. This will open up several new scenes.

V0.2fix

I still can't load choice saves -> black screen!

...and please hide out the whole screen with Space tab, because you can see furthermore the text.


More:
- college, not collage
- options and exit didn't work in the menu screen.
- rollback with mouse wheel would be great too! (and middle click to hide the screen)


Thanks 4 fixes and way to go, Dev!

I am sorry about the load problem and I know it's a problem and one I did not realize before the release as it actually works fine for me. Sadly the problem seems to be an engine problem not a coding one. I have been told by the developers that it should be fixed on the next update of the engine but they did not give me a time frame of when that would be. So until then I am working on the auto save that I will try to set up so it saves right before choices.

Fixing the college right now. Thank you so much.

Not sure if I can do rollback. There is a log button if you need to reread some things.

The hide screen I can do and will have that in the next update. Sorry it is not something I tend to use so I didn't even think about it when making this.

Thank you so much for your support and I am glad you are liking the game so far.
