This is the PizzaHot we never got. More content in the initial release too.
Feedback:
--- Being able to just skip scenes that might be tiring to see over and over/get in the way of hunting for a specific scene, such as being able to just throw more money to avoid the train and lock doors/skip shower, is great and shows that the devs understand the difference between grind and senseless grind. Hopefully the same consideration will be extended to all future scenes henceforth.
---- Certain avenues of corruption need more ways to progress them, such as male touching, male pleasing and voicing Angelica's feelings. I understand that this is just an initial release and it would make sense to add more progression for these later down the line, and just want to point out that as it stands the progression is heavily scewered towards exhibitionism and groping, as random gropes/undresses are happening all the time during regular bar gameplay. You thus quickly end up with Angelica that is perfectly willing to let anyone touch her anywhere and is fine walking (in this update still only almost) naked, but somehow struggles to put a hand on customer's lap or even lie that being touched feels okay at best without being wasted/horny out of her mind when she actually can't get enough of it.
---- Contrary to what another person commented on this page, I'd prefer the family member events aside from maybe the landlord to take the backmost priority until, at least, the bar and train content are feature complete, if no for other reason than content bloat like that significantly slowing down the development of what I would consider core gameplay.
The game isn't called "Life of an innocent tenant in an apartment full of horndogs", it's called "Life as an innocent waitress stuck in a city full of pervs yada yada", and so I don't come here for the story of titilating relationships between Angelica and whatever her connection is with the people in her apartment. I come here to see innocent girl degrade into the town bike, and enjoy being made to do so too.
Once core gameplay is feature complete the expansion of her relationships and how her corruption at each stage of it affects those can be a nice cherry on top, but only then.
---- While the full range of reaction selections from "Expell" to "Encourage more" when hit with random harrassment in bar minigame is convenient for seeing all content in the initial release, maintaining it in the current form for the future releases doesn't make much sense to me. To begin with, fully innocent Angelica encouraging more from the very first moment she is harrassed by customers is extremely out of character, especially when it is something like her getting undressed, encouraging to get undressed more, and then running away to the bar counter screaming that she must fix her clothes posthaste.
-- To folow up, effectively none of the choices have any tangible feedback to them besides bar/reputation/arousal/exhibitionism stat changes. If you choose soft complain, Angelica doesn't complain. If you choose encourage, she doesn't encourage. If you choose expell, the customer just leaves the table on tick, again, with no actual reaction from anyone. Even just a single text line (ideally changing with respect to Angelica's corruption), coupled with maybe a different standing right hand paper doll pose (but I imagine how much of a pain in the ass that would be with all possible clothing/clothing state/facial state variations to render) for each choice would significantly improve the feedback.
- The choices themselves should probably be tied to Angelica's stats and corruption stage. Innocent Angelica having her most degraded option as "Soft complain" and the further ones down require either more corruption, her being horny, or her being drunk. Simply having them all available from the get go doesn't fit with the way the rest of the game flows.
---- Certain interactions should be better highlighted. I am not asking for massive yellow paint with arrows saying "CLICK ME YOU BRAINLESS BUFFOON", but I only learned that you can interact with the table in Angelica's room when I went to look how many renders overall the game has in the RPA archive.
---- Comments the molester make on Angelica's underwear not suiting their image of her as a slut make me hope for options to change and/or wear no underwear whatsoever in the future. If no such thing is planned, while sad, it might be appropriate to change these text lines to not give the player false expectations. This goes for other scenes as well, such as the drinking scene noting how the customers' actions escalate with each time Angelica drinks, only to go "actually they don't escalate anymore, teehee pero" immediately after.
Overall a first release that already outperforms a number of sad projects on this site that had been in development for years now. While this is commendable, you should keep in mind that people are also gonna expect much more from each future release accordingly, and if you don't think you can keep up with the expectations, now would be the time to start tempering them.
