Finally got around to playing this and absolutely loved it. An impressive game….it’s somewhat of a standout imo. The interactions between the MC and the LIs, and the gradual corruption of Meredith are really well done, and are nicely complemented by the soundtrack. The dialogue translations into English could be improved in places, but even so, the game is now in my list of top ten AVNs. Looking forward to further updates to this intriguing story.
I did an edit/proof of the entire script a couple of months ago if you want to play it with better English.

I like all of the women in this VN, I thought Julia was unbeatable but then Ruby appeared - and now Brie! I don't think I could pick the best of the three.
I find it really odd that people are so ready to criticise a dev for his choices. They take us on a journey and we either like it or don't. Do people read books and then consider how the author got it wrong, or failed to meet their needs in some way?
I have loved every aspect of this game so far, and my only complaint is having to wait to see where he takes us on this journey next.
I am similarly blown away by this VN. In particular, the emotions etched on the faces of the LI's feel more sensual and erotic than any animated sex act could ever achieve.
As someone with personal experience in that, yes, yes they do. It's actually a common issue with a lot of entertainment.
And that's okay--every reader or game player or movie watcher is going to have their own specific wants, and doesn't necessarily need to try to understand other perspectives--but I do think the creator has to be able to ignore the individual noise and focus on their own vision*.
In AVNs and other endeavors that are community funded, and in an ongoing way rather than at the start or at the very end, I think that can be more difficult, as there's a (perhaps not incorrect) sense that those who are actively funding something should have some level of input or control as well.
* (Now, if the entire playerbase or readership hates something, that is another matter entirely... art comes into conflict with consumerism and we all have to eat.)

Thought I would share this info because I too love this VN and wanted to know when we might see an update!

Chapter 5 part 2 December Update
Oh boy. There is a lot to share.
First off, the scope of the final shoot is... bigger than my initial expectations. The variations in the scenes are... quite numerous, and Meredith's reactions compound the complexity of what I must do even more so.
In this shoot, the paths between attraction and corruption vary the scenes a lot more than in the previous chapters, increasing my workload by a significant margin. And not just that, the choices you make, and the variance in the scenes must be reflected in Tommy's view. Tommy's thoughts are also audible from your perspective. There is also a mini-system that regards his jealousy, changing how he thinks, and perhaps, you may find a way to unlock a desire that he didn't know he had.
Sometimes I thought it best to underscore the chapter and trim the perhaps, less than necessary scenes, but I don't think that is the right way to go. I don't believe that approach will do the chapter justice. Which sounds all well and good. But the time and effort it takes to realize what I have in mind is... well, big I don't want to oversell it. This is a solo project. Rendering, writing, planning, it all comes from a meager man who hopes he can pour more time into the project. So please keep expectations reasonable. And frankly, it has begun to creep into my full-time job, something that I can't realistically keep up forever. So, please be patient. The project is going strong. It's just very time-consuming. Thank you for your countless support! I don't believe a Christmas release is realistic at this point, but there will be something special upon Christmas. Stay tuned.

I think the focus on Tommy has made this AVN way less enjoyable than it seemed it would be from the beginning of the game. Specifically it feels like wasted effort that could be better spent on other parts of the story and the required dev work to create them.Thought I would share this info because I too love this VN and wanted to know when we might see an update!

Tommy sooner or later would have to be addressed. Maxine husband wasn't around so impact was minimal. Meredith husband is smack right in the middle. So they have to deal with him if it be cuck him or have him leave.
On this note, I have a suspicion that the decision in Chapter 4 of whether to lie to Tommy or not will influence if he and Meredith separates or if he discovers he likes being cucked. At the moment, telling the truth has only negative impacts from a direct gameplay standpoint. It wouldn't surprise me if in the next update telling the truth (and therefore improving the communication between Tommy and Meredith) makes him more receptive to liking Meredith being with MC. If that's the case, it might also make it easier to convince Meredith to complete the binding ritual since it might be with her husband's blessing.
Zero interest in having Tommy enjoy being cucked, as I absolutely loathe that sort of thing, so that's wasted dev time for me. Still, I'm sure some will enjoy it, and at least we'll have other options.

How would you deal with Tommy since the objective is to make Meredith a follower?

This.
But honestly, I'd break them up and kick him to the side of the road or have her do so... As I said, it's not like there's not going to be a route to do that anyway. I just have no interest in participating in a cuck or hotwife simulation, whether the MC is being the bull or not, so to me, it's a waste of dev time and resources.
And as I also said, I recognize some people will appreciate the option.
I feel you are right about the community funding aspect making people feel that they have more right to shape a developing story, however, much of the most strident negativity does not seem to come from them.
I appreciate the time, effort and often cash that the devs put into their work and respect their decisions on how they want to develop it. I have enjoyed quite a few AVN's but have only supported a handfull financially so long may this genre exist.
