The primary inspiration for this project wasthere is something about Pale Carnations that I can't look past, and... I did a search on this thread, and no one seemed to have mentioned it before. So I'm curious, is it just me, or does this feel like a very Japanese sorta cast placed in a very American environment?
I've watched my fair share of anime, read manga's, and even played those old school AVN (Xchange... aah, memories). A lot of those Japanese tropes seem to come back here: large bossoms, slightly exagerated emotional expressions, The Cutesy character (Mina with lots of pink), the badass one (Hanna with lots of blacks), unusual hair colours, women have large eyes and so on.
all male characters also kinda look Japanese and Asian. It doesn't bother me, it just made me curious. I was initially wondering if this was a Japanese game being translated (but it's not, that much I understood), or simply a choice of 3D characters.
That being said, I really appreciate the depths of all characters who on surface can strike as stereotypical and then quickly are fleshed out.

, but my whole frame of reference when it comes to visual novels is built upon eroge in general. I've played a lot of them, over a rather long time, so you can attribute some of the conventional elements to that.As for the appearance of the characters, as someone said, that's likely because the tool used is a Japanese-made poser addon for another H-game.
