The coffee shop date?
Either don't take advantage her when you first meet, or if you do, apologize.
Thanks,and keep up the good work. This game is crazy......in a good way. Also its the best looking HS game ive ever seen. Also a few random observations.

1. What happened to Darius?
2. Holy Shit, MC's mom did porn?
3. Rosalind,and Felicia are the best.
4. You all did a good job writing an MC with some deep rooted anger issues.

You can try using JoiPlay. That's what I use if I want to play on my phone. Performance is a bit better on compiled apks, but JoiPlay has the advantage of making the games moddable and easier to update if the game releases updates in the form of small patches and not the full file each time. And I don't have to wait for the android release of a game
I tried JoiPlay and this really working
I'm suprised and glad at once
Thanks

After writing my review, which still is a work in progress, I'd like to leave a short résumé:

Well, that was quite a rollercoaster ride right into (and through) the entrails of depravity.

I can’t say that I thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

At times (during the second exhibition trial) I was really disgusted, close to deleting Pale Carnations (and purging it with fire), but something (perverted curiosity?) kept me going - only to be rewarded with (in my opinion) one of the most satisfying and cathartic scenes ever.

The whole "exhibition scene" with its build-up (Kathleen mercilessly tormenting Lucy and Veronica) and ensuing retaliation (Veronica putting Kathleen in her place) was simply brilliant.

Kudos to the devs for creating something so refreshingly out of the ordinary, a true adult visual novel, which surely stands out in a sea of bland, interchangeable and juvenile lewd fantasies.

Even after finishing (the current version of) Pale Carnations, I’m still unsure what to make of it, but it definitely didn’t leave me cold.

The experience has been disgusting, enjoyable and fascinating - or in Hana’s words: "Pretty fucked up".

Now, if you’ll excuse me - I think I need to readjust my moral compass…

You don't how thrilled I am to hear that **spoiler** scene landed exactly how I hoped with at least one person, put in the exact term the scene was built from the ground up to achieve - catharsis.

Anyway, I just really wanted to express how happy your comment made me and thank you for taking the time to make a comprehensive review.

Adding to the animation discussion:

I don't think full-fleshed animations are necessary to create appealing lewd scenes.
They also require a lot of time and resources, which in my opinion is better spend on more frequent releases.

While I'm not a fan of 2-render "animations", the lewd scenes in Pale Carnations are good (hot) enough as they are, especially those with Felicia (damn, that woman) and the girl-on-girl action.

I think you came up with a good compromise by increasing the transitions.

So it's currently impossible to get with Mina? She reminds me a lot of Fanora from Mythic Manor.

As of chapter 1, both Mina and Hana have no sex scenes to speak of.
They are planned of course, but they have a slower build up than the Carnations for obvious reasons.
So she and Hana will not be a part of Carnations? I wasn't into Rose but Mina is great.

Mina is my fav, so I hope we can get some hardcore action with her, the pervs at the club can play with the rest of them.
No worries there. All five heroines (Rosalind, Felicia, Veronica, Mina, and Hana) will have their own share of debauched (and diverse) content as the story progresses. It's just Mina will take a little more time to organically get there compared to the three women freely taking part in what's basically sexual Fear Factor.

We can friendzone the girls we don't like? And is the main routes with each girl will be romance or debauchery?

In chapter 2 there are key points that will let you enter or skip a heroine's route altogether.
Once you enter a route, they'll be jumping off points to leave that route throughout the remaining chapters, until it either culminates into a romantic ending at the end of chapter 5 or an amicable parting. There's no harem ending to be had, but there will be a couple of crossover scenes between the routes for group content goodness. Also, you won't be "punished" for pursuing multiple routes, but you will eventually have to choose who, if anyone, you want to end up with.

And is the main routes with each girl will be romance or debauchery?
Mostly romantic, but each girl has their own trajectory to reaching that point.
Hana's route for example is full on romance, from start to finish - with some kinky bits thrown in. On the other end of things is Rosalind's route, which starts on a more nebulous and distinctly unromantic footing but grows into something more if the player chooses.

No harem ending, huh? Well, can't say I'm not disappointed, but I'm still very interested to see what you have planned to "compensate" as it were. Thinking of becoming a patron honestly, very positively surprised by you guys' work!

What about bad endings? Sei Shoujo games have plenty of those.
Yes, there's **at least* a couple of bad endings already in the outline, with maybe more if we find places to put good ones.
Personally I'm a HUGE fan of bad endings in visual novels, provided they're done right. That is, if they actually enhance the story and provide additional information/context to the setting as a whole. A good example of that is Amane's bad ending in the Angelic Howl Route in Grisaia no Kajitsu, if you're familiar with that one. It was emotionally potent, but it also gave away a key plot item that you couldn't gleam elsewhere. That was also my favorite thing about Fate/Stay Night. All the logically-sound bad endings that you actually get to see play out in brutal detail.

I love, love, LOVE bad endings that go beyond fade-to-black-you-fucked-up and hope to include some good ones down the road.

Is it mostly the MC letting himself become too corrupt or mind breaking the girls to become cum dumpsters?

I just finished playing the game and it was one of the best that i have played in recent memory.
I hope there will be more content with Kathleen in the next update :)

A question regarding her character, i see she is not one of the main heroins of the game, so will be posible to have and ending with her? Also how much femdom content can we expect with her?

I am also a big fan of Sei Shoujo characters like Mamiya Marie, if you put some of her in Kathleen it will be a 11/10 for me ;).

Best of luck with the game
