Reviewing the game as of version [v0.106A]
Gonna give this game two stars right now, not one star because there is potential here, but a lot of work needs to be done to turn this into a good game.
-Just opening the game gave me several Ren'py error screens, seems like there is a coding issue for the splash screen. I caught other smaller coding issues, like a character speaking is not actually in the scene and has not yet been introduced to the player.
-The dialogue feels hollow and flat. The characters all speak the same way for the most part. If names were turned off, it would be hard to tell who is speaking.
-Story is not great so far and feels pretty rushed and contrived.
-The dev has stated that they do not have a completed outline for how the game will progress or end, choosing to write as they go and leave room for supporters to influence the project. Not looking good for consistent updates or a cohesive narrative.
-Currently no music or sounds in the game.
-I'm fine with AI art being used, but you can tell there has not been a lot of work done to polish and improve the art. Some of the art is straight up bad. There is one picture that shows Mila running to her audition, and the pose makes no sense at all.
-Currently a kinetic novel, though the use of the angel and demon girls on the banner would imply that there should be good/bad choices for the player to make. Maybe this feature has just not been implemented yet, and these characters do not yet make an appearance.
Overall this is a rough start, and future updates aren't very promising. But there is potential here and I wish the dev the best of luck.
