I want to create a visual novel based on real events in modern-day New York City.

You are a 22-year-old medical student who drops out of a prestigious university for love, leaving behind your beloved mother. You move to New York hoping for a fresh start. But when your girlfriend gets unexpectedly pregnant, and her mother, in the middle of a collapsing marriage, moves in with you, life quickly spirals into chaos. What begins as an awkward living arrangement turns into late night walks, quiet confessions, and a pregnancy that brings a fatal dilemma.

This is a story about loving more than one woman. About poverty that forces you to choose between love and survival. About a mother whose love hurts more than betrayal. And about dreams that almost fell apart but still have a chance if you keep fighting.

Do you like my idea, kittens?

Looks and sounds good. I like the girls, and the situation and story definitely sound a bit unique, with us dealing with pregnancy early and other things.

Will say, from looking at photo, not fan of glasses on MC, kind of looks dorky, would of liked no glasses, maybe contacts angle, would make him look cooler to me. Wished they weren't there. But ultimately up to you.

And its personal preference at end of day. Still excited to check this out when it drops.

The glasses are an outward reflection of his character. I added them to emphasize his intelligence and insecurity

Yeah I get that. I just personally hate the look of glasses on MC's. They always just look like a nerd or dork. Plus I feel there are other ways to emphasize character traits then physical things, like through dialogue or story.

But once again thats just me. Will probably slightly ruin the experience everytime I see him on screen, cause I like to self insert a bit, is the main reason, but don't want you to change your vision, cause of my thoughts.

I really appreciate that feedback. I know there's a stereotype that characters with glasses are nerds. But I want to show the opposite in the story: how an insecure but intelligent guy grows and gains the courage to take responsibility for his actions.
