Ren'Py - Lovely Academy [v0.1.9] [CastleStudios]

So, a few random thoughts for v0.1 as I play:

• Going fullscreen on launch is not the way, my man.
• English needs to be default.
• Half the interface still in spanish, what gives?
• Leftover saves from testing? Broken too.
• Starting scene was interesting.
• I like the models (stepdad a bit plain though).
• Music too. Good.
• Default volume though. I'm sure there are heart attack victims out there. RenPy sound, always up to 11.
• I'm sure there was a lot of effort put into renders, but can't see anything from the eye cancer these compression artifacts are causing. It's so bad I get the feeling you were compressing for a faraway friend in rural China who's on dial-up and mistakenly posted it as the main release. Just go PNG, lossless, makes people appreciate your art, not stab their own eyes out on reflex.
• Why everyone and their mother insist on adding fake 'gameplay'? It serves only two purposes: annoy people and waste their time.
  You have a story to tell, so tell it, no need for me as a player to click through empty hallways, cordoned-off stairs and ghost-like subway stations. Please.
• Thoughts are not indicated as such in text in some places.
• A couple of 'image not found' errors.
• Does not go to the home screen at the end.
• Short.

Writing's a bit stiff, and I could not appreciate the renders, even though I like the models. Oh, and no way a random convenience store has a bottle of 1957-whatever.

Lots of negatives, but mostly technical or a matter of opinion. All fixable.
Carry on, improve, might make it a great game yet.
