I think this is something I will keep an eye. But as of what I played currently it feels a little too barebones to hold my attention currently.
I read through some of the comments and have a couple suggestions,some of which may have already been given and I just missed but I'll give em to be safe.
1. While you may want to avoid a traditional affection system, it's clear the game is in someway tracking that number, or something similar to it. Giving players the option to see those numbers on the girls' profiles if they want would probably go a long way in helping us know what are good, bad or meme answers.
2. Give players the option to enable seeing the "secret" interactions in the list, or to be able to get given in-game hints/tips for what some options might be if using the input system. I tried a whole bunch of stuff with different scenes to see what would trigger and I found very little that wasn't some mild variation of the generic responses.
Also some just seem... odd. Like in the list you have the option to reach for Akane's glasses, but it does seemingly nothing. Like, sure, it's a thing some weirdo might do, and getting interrupted is realistic. But for a game about player choice it just feels like a waste of time.
If small things like this will be referenced later or have a future impact, then it would be nice to have some kind of indication.
3. I noticed in a reply or two you mentioned how a full harem ending isn't planned because you won't be able to date girls who are friends with each other. I feel like being able to smooth talk all the girls into dating you should definitely be an option. Making it tricky to convince certain girls to go along with it would be part of the fun, while others might be more willing to date the same guy as their best friends.
This one isn't a dealbreaker, but I think it would be one to consider worth adding in the long run.
For now, these are my suggestions based on what I played and read in the thread. As I said, I'll be watching this and looking forward to where it goes in the future.
