Its a slow burn indeed, and yet somehow we keep clicking.I hate this game. You fight for every little bit of progress, click through the area, repeat everything over and over again just to be able to see one more little detail. It sucks. Sex? You have to wait forever for that, forever. Hours of playing until a scene comes along. What the hell.....
And yet, I love this series. It's addictive. I've played through all the episodes. And can hardly wait for more content to come. No idea why it captivates me so much, but compliments to the creator. Don't misunderstand, this is praise, not criticism.
The only small criticism would be to maybe include a few little side things that you can still do. Something silly like throwing down a glass that she picks up to have a look or something like that. Or add a joke. Or maybe a dream passage from which she wakes up because she has imagined sex? I'm still missing something like that. Nothing decisive for the game, but something to make the waiting time for the real progress a bit more relaxed.
I agree on having more 'side' things, if possibly appearing randomly (can you do that with renpy?).
Guessing we're going back to the beach in CH24.
