ART gets better when you advance the story, first characters that appear should be reworked a bit. The style is the same, but you can clearly see the art gets a bit better. It's not mind boggling, but I find it cute and I enjoy it quite a bit at the moment.

Story is the big thing here, tho; It's really interesting, and the characters are charming in their own way. There's some "average porn characters" around the place, but mostly, they're quite interesting and want to know a bit more about them. I could easily see an actual TV show with this setting or one similar.

Also, NTR is barely there, it's a secondary quest, and you don't even need to "accept it", you can just VERY CLEARLY avoid it with one decission, and from there on there's no more NTR at all.

Please everyone, I personally dislike NTR in games too but stop being crybabies about it, at least get some info first, cause most developers nowadays give you a way to entirely avoid it.

Yeah, I did notice this as well.
Some fullscreen art later on looks pretty good.
And sprites like the policewomen/hooker (probably one of the first characters drawn and never reworked) standing next to her more realistic-looking boss (who appears later in the story) almost looks like 2 clashing artstyles.
Yeah, that's a perfect example, the policewoman actually looks bad in comparison to most of the new characters, or just their redesigns. Creator should make a small sweep and go around reworking some characters a bit, some look a bit wonky still and it's quite dissonant when you see them next to eachother.

Jake's power requires that you hear him or that he touch you. So everyone who can't hear him is immune. Also, his orders must not be too against the will of the person, otherwise he will defend himself. Even an ordinary person was too much for him (Mia) when he wanted to go straight against her mind.
Mia did not resisting his mind control orders, rather he was not using that power on her. He could have but chose not to because of their friendship.

As for what happened in the end, he was trying to perform a delicate procedure on her of manually rewriting memories (more difficult than just giving orders or the various automatic procedures) and due to the emotional duress of doing it to mia specifically triggered his levelup to level 2 midway through. Causing him to go out of control and give her brain damage.
You give him too much credit.
He just wanted to suppress all memories of Ella.
It's the same as suppressing everyone else's memories that he was fat.

But it has been said several times that Mia is extremely intelligent (genius), had a strong will, and was aware of exactly what he was doing to her. As a result, her resistance was much greater, forcing Jake to use much more power, which brought him to the limits of his abilities. If you remember, Ella later told him (in hospital) that if he tried something like that on superhuman or a monster, it could kill him. This is also the reason why all his commands are subtle and he does not try to get people to do things that no one will could force them to do.

Relatively similar things apply to real-world hypnosis.
You can make a man bark like a dog, but you can't make him take a knife and cut his neck.
Your subconscious protects you from things you would never do.

She explicitly noted that this is only if the superhuman is stronger than him and has more energy. It forces a direct clash of power that is determined by raw energy.
IIRC she also mentioned ordinary humans are not an issue.
You give him too much credit.
hmm, your explanation sounds plausible. not sure which of the proposed explanations is right though.

And if she really was a genius she probably would have had sex with MC by now, instead of having an entirely platonic non-NTR relationship with a fat guy that drinks toilet water and assaults little girls.
If the willingness to have sex with MC is a measure of intelligence, practically only the geniuses live on campus :D

My guess is that Deryl was caught unprepared and during the changes in Mia's memories, Jake was unfocused.
In addition, intelligence is not always a measure of strong will. I think Mia is significantly superior to Deryl in this regard.

Getting everything set up again shouldn't take longer than a few weeks and the game's code is open source - so that's no problem.

It would suck if the original art is all lost though.
The ingame art (except sprites) is all poorly compressed with visible blocking/banding artifacts and redrawing 2000 fullscreen images probably isn't gonna happen.

The original character sprites (which are much higher res and have multiple layers) being lost might not be a bad thing, since most need a rework anyway, but of course this takes time as well.

I've made the same mistake once (lost years of work) before quickly switching to triple backups (backup SSD and online backup).
Hopefully the developer does the same from now on.

TLDR: Things could be delayed for a few months, assuming it's all true and the dev isn't just taking a lengthy luxury vacation with his Patreon money.

The code is opensource?.....you mean renpy at general...if not could you link here where i can find the source code of the game?

It is often implied that Mia is very smart, but in her conversations/actions you only really see her being socially awkward.
I've never seen her being a genius first-hand.
Deryl on the other hand manages to analyze what you are with a cell sample and explains all the complicated stuff to you.
I don't believe Deryl can be that far behind - he probably just gets lower scores in test because he parties too much, instead of studying for them like Mia.
I mean she got into the Super genius tower, and they seem like the kind of people to reject "test smart" students in favor of "change the world smart" students if Xanthe is at all involved...

Also, Deryl explicitly acknowledges that he has stuff to learn from Mia.

As for her will power, she breaks a cinderblock with her forehead after training with Michael.

That said, I do think she just got mind blasted STRICTLY because Jake did a hack job of it.

why the game with the ugliest art is so high rated? Is it really worth to try it out?

If it is rating high ,there must be a reason...so instead of asking the obvious you could easily try it

If you play it more than an hour you will understand the art behind his drawings :)

For many people the art is off putting, it was for me the very first time I looked at it, but honestly once you start playing the art starts to grow you and the game itself is so well done it's not a hindrance at all.
