Any way we can get a compressed version? The story sounds like it's up my alley, but 3+ GB is a bit too much of an oof for me

I don't know how to rate this game, so I'll make a short review instead.
Disclaimer: I'm no pro game designer, just a random player, so this is just my random take on what I've played (till end of chap 28).
The good :
-music (a real OST, fitting with the overall neon retro ambiance)
-Chara design. Colorfull and each girl is easily and quickly recognizable). Author managed to not use cliched personas and make them lively enough.
-art direction: it gives an overall neo retro vibe (I thought of the goonies) but in a somewhat jap anime setting.
-story is unique and humor relief is well brought. The relationship between characters is an interesting mechanic (shared sensations, intricate past).
The bad:
-the lewd. There is almost none. I've seen like 4 scenes in more than 10hrs of reading. Very little and not well done.
-the pace. Story moves very slowly. There are a lot of fillers/exposition parts which are avoidable IMHO. Things could be either shown or said in less verbose ways.
-ressources management. I mean, a lot of time was spent on a fight scene (nice animation (the only animated scene), a battle system etc... all for one battle that lasts 5 min and we won't see any other (at least after 8 more hours none have appeared so far). I'd rather have the animation work spent on the lewd part for them to be a bit animated or get more CGs, than have this battle scene.
Overall this feels like an above average VN, but an underaverage sexy game.
Clearly this isn't a porn game, sex scenes are scarce, short, and not well designed (very few CGs, even the latest chapter wich has the longest one makes it feel like it is rushed. MC is having a foursome in like 8pics and climax/acme isn't well done IMHO.
The lewd scenes really feel like the most lacking part of the game so far).
This is why it is hard to rate. It is a fine VN but a bad sexy VN. It feels like if games of thrones was branded as a porn serie. It would still be an ok serie (especially the first seasons) but you would feel cheated on the number of sex scenes.
As an adult game on F95, I expect more on the lew side of things while this is more a SFW VN.
Saddest part is that there were lots of occasions to drop good sex scenes many times in the story, but it didn't happen or was shown in 1pic (like that boobjob pic in the exemples, it is litteraly the single lewd pic in the scene, as we are following a third character who runs away from the scene)
This is why I won't support it on patreon: i feel like it underdelivers. It might be me having the wrong expectations, but I just feel frustrated at the missed opportunities so far.
I might be wrong and will try this again in a few months to see which direction it took and might reconsider, but right now I am more disapointed than satisfied (because i was expecting a lewd story, otherwise it is a fine VN)
I wish the best to story Anon, you can tell the work and attention poured on this VN.

I can save you the trouble and tell you it will not pivot into becoming a solely porn focused game in the future.
for you and the others, here’s Snows progress update on Android from a few days ago:
Because it requires UI work, it would come after the Android build and probably the combat rework.
This is the before the combat rework, it’s next on the docket after the android build.

We’re going to try and get actual animated models working in Unity itself instead of using webms for everything. There’s a bit more about it in the OP.
I am sorry
