This one is almoooost there... it's sooo close....
The idea of having a starting path is Ok, maybe decreases the timing having to branch out all the possible scenarios, meaning 1) vanilla is very short 2) implies no underlying story (which is not necessarily bad) but also that some paths might have way less content than others, making them less apealing.
Characters are hot but they are not very well written. It's not even remotely believable why or how the MC end up with Jenny, why does she treat Tyronne or even the MC like that in the Vanilla path... (the game implies different "realities" for each path, and each give more or less information about their personalities, so it get's confusing); the "excuses" for certain scenes are are very cheap (sleeping problems).
Overall the game has the vibe, the characters, models, build-up, scenes, some animations, but if you remorely care about all the rest around it, it's ... hard to suspend the disbelief, maybe some polish could go a long way, all the best.
