First, let's start off with the bad (because there isn't much of it):
The characters are not, on the surface, terribly original. You have the Japanese masseuse, the busty grandma, etc. Plus a lot of the models aren't quite the best -- the dev's inexperience shows a bit here, which is fine. I expect to see improvement as he progresses. And that's it. That's really all that's "bad".
While the models aren't great (in my opinion), they are certainly adequate, and (importantly) extremely varied. Yes, there is the token black girl, and the token Japanese girl, but not with the tired old personality stereotypes. The story is predictable and somewhat unoriginal, BUT... it doesn't matter. It just feels natural. Often dialogue in these games feels so forced I find myself mostly skipping through, but this game had me reading every line, and like a good book, not realizing it.
I also didn't expect that much out of a v0.1 (also, bonus points for a first release being named 1.0 -- big pet peeve of mine, for no good reason at all!), but this was quite a bit of story and fun. Usually you come out fucking everyone at the drop of a hat and it makes no sense, or it's a loooong slow burn to get to a first non-dream scene. The dev did a great job balancing believable sex scenes with strangers, and sexual tension that hasn't been realized with the fam.
All in all, a great game, and I look forward to the next installment!
Went to go check the dev's SubscribeStar, but there isn't one...? Love to see someone doing this just because he wants to -- but it might not hurt to set one up in case someone (ahem) feels like showing some love.
