Simply an excellent game
I'll try to focus 1 - On storytelling ---- and 2 - On art
1- The concept : It works, it is absolutely favorable to the characters, the story it wants to tell and also for the H scenes and tension. It just works.
))
The characters : They could be a little more developped, but you understand very quickly what they are all about, and what role they are going to play. They never act out of character either. Not a strong point of the game, but nothing bad to say either.
The dialogues : Completely fine, nothing bad to say either. Although the game could use a little bit more humor, to engage the player better. (There is some, though it can be hidden; the wallpaper paper screen of the french girl made me laugh)
The story : You follow a main investigation that you will have to choose "how much" you invest yourself in, and on the side you can flirt with other characters.
It just follows the basic rules of storytelling,
which is actually a nice change for once
It is nice to follow, anyway. For now there is nothing truly interesting happening (too early stage for that), but I hope the author can actually get something nice out of this story.
2 - Rendering quality : Beautiful. Nothing is gonna catch your eye in a bad way, it just flows.
Staging : Good, you have many different POV's to work with, it's never too static.
Animations : pretty damn fine
Music : Ouch, it lacks. There is some, sometimes, and some sound effects, which is really nice.
But ambient music is important to set a mood, convey emotions and all of that, it shouldn't be passed over.
Overall, it's not really a game that is especially gonna stand out in way or an another. Conversely, it is strong in pretty much all areas. Absolutely worth the try and the wait for updates.
