So, I was just thinking how the dialogue for all the girls is basically copy/pasted. There's very little originality or personalization to it. Have you thought about having people here apply to write dialogue for their favorite character(s)? Have people submit a small sample to give you an idea about quality, then get them to start writing a few scenes. Just so it feels a little more personal and not like all the girls are exactly the same.

Except for the very basic "bla bla" where you talk about the topics like music, the island, etc. All girls have individual dialogues for almost everything by now. The copy & past part is less than 1% of the text in the game. The girls are anything but the same in how they talk and react.

I wish we can change the body type of the girls in this game on the later updates
That is not possible.

Ren'Py does not have a graphics engine.
Each image is made beforehand in another program (Daz).

Changing a girl would mean duplicating her images for each changed form, which while not a huge issue in small games, would take around 3-4 years here as Holiday Island is a sandbox game with 11.000 images.

You mean in the next version? That's a planned update? It's certainly not the case in 0.3.1.1.
