Hey, just wanted to say I'm really enjoying your game so far, while the majority of the guys aren't necessarily my type (usually prefer them on the older and/or thicker side like Will and Jordi) the writing is extremely strong and more than enough to make me want to explore everyone's route
The only thing bumming me out a little is that Evan and Julian, aka the two students I'm most interested in, are only hookups. Is there a possibility of them turning into romances eventually as the story develop (especially Julian since if I'm not mistaken you can gain love points with him) or is it a hard no-go?
Otherwise I wish you good luck on your project since the number of different paths is ambitious as hell, but once again I'm super impressed with the quality of the writing. I think this must be the first visual novel I've played where the main character is described as witty and charismatic and the dialogue actually reflects that without coming across as cringy
Haha, thanks. Yeah, it takes some hubris to say your own dialogue is witty, so I'm glad it actually reads that way!
The romance and hookup designations were created way back at the beginning of development when everyone was basically just an archetypical concept. Since then, the writing has transformed them beyond what I originally came up with. So I'm not opposed to expanding into romances if the writing goes there.
Evan in particular is very different from what I initially thought up. He was originally named Bastian (a name I just cannibalized for another character), he looked much different (still short, but slender instead of stocky and ethnically ambiguous instead of blond/white), and he was much more confident and competent. You were basically meant to just see him in classes and maybe do a closet/bathroom hookup at points. He was never going to be at the party, for instance.
So the Evan we have now who's sort of bumbling, naïve, and cute, is not the same "confused classmate" character that was in the outlines. And clearly Evan has a little crush on Connor. I'm giving him a hangout in this next chunk of the game, actually. It is conceived as leading into a hookup scenario, but I'm pretty sure in the writing of it I'll start expanding on his backstory...
I can't for the chance to fuck him! I just hope it won't be that far kn the future
It won't be very far into the story! But early-ish in the game doesn't mean early in real time, since it takes a while to do each update. I made some galleries with him fucking some of the guys to tide us over until then, haha.
Not sure if you'd be willing to answer this just yet, but the next update is the Atelier 54 guys correct? Have you decided on which guys will be having sexual content for that update yet?
That's correct, I'm working on the club update now. I have everything planned ahead of time, so I do know which guys will have sexual content—it'll be four guys in total over three hookup scenarios. I don't think it's a spoiler to say Alex is one of them, since he already says he'll have sex with you at the club if you hang out & proposition him in the afternoon. If you keep in mind that these first hookups are mostly with guys who made it clear they'll have sex immediately, you can probably guess at one of the other hookup options. And the third scenario I don't think will be expected at all, so I won't spoil it. I'll only say I've been anticipating it for a while since the storyline it leads into is gonna be pretty interesting...
