First of all, not bad dev, not bad at all.
That being said, the H-scenes got real old, real fast. Which is kind of a problem in a porn game. Millie and her mom get raped by future soldiers. Okay, it sets the goal for our MC, avoid that bad end. Now, I tend to think that any third person scene is a bad idea. Players play the porn game, they want their character to fuck the girls, not some rando. But it's fine. It sets up the plot.
Then we walk on the wench turning tricks in the medieval equivalent of a parking lot, and do not participate. Alright, it's weird that it happened twice in a row but... AND THEN THE JESTER GETS RAPED. And then the fawn, and then we meet miss piggy who's just dandy being a sex slave, then our apprentices get up to their own mischief, then some long-dead spirit rails piggy, then ratmen take turns on the living statue that *we* fucked up, etc, etc, etc... With our MC's only input being looking and one single solitary fingering scene until Zuri enters the picture (which is a breath of fresh air until what happens happens). Oh yeah no I forgot but Piggy can also suck our dick, and when we don't even fuck the (orc) village's bicycle, this is just becoming sad.
If I had a nickel for every time MC picked up a rape victim I'd have four nickels, which is not a lot but at this point it's not a coincidence, it's a fucking fetish.
The irritating part is that some scenes are really good. Brainfucking a water elemental is funny, I could get down with that, except it's a fucking frog doing the deed. Health potion + semen = aphrodisiac. That's an interesting idea, could lead up to some funny hijinks, or some devious ploys from MC to get his dick wet.
All of that is good, the writing is good. It's not fucking Shakespeare but I'm not here for Shakespeare, I'm here for the fucking.
And while I am opposed to the third party scenes on principle, it can work in small doses. The issue is that this is not a small dose, it's the entire fucking game.
I also, personally (and this is just my opinion, make your game the way you want it) do not buy MC-focused stories. The MC should be important, of course, it's his story after all, but the first rule of porn is to not look at the balls. And it holds true in erotic novels and games, the focus should be on the girls and how we can change them. We, the players, don't need to fall in love with our MC, but we sure as fuck need to fall for the girls. In other words, in the narrative the girls should be priority 1 and MC priority 2. Still pretty damn important, but we don't need 5 reasons and fate itself for MC to turn to the dark side. Most NPC we meet get up to sexual hijinks, let us get up to sexual hijinks without a villain arc. And if we really need a villain arc, fate, the corrupting power of magic, oppression from the town and the queen, personal tragedy, or everybody in this universe already fucks with or without consent so fuck morality this is a porn game, pick two of those five and you're good. No need to gild the lily.
But yeah, good job on that release and Godspeed for the continuation of that project, I'll be watching how it develops with great interest.
