What an absolute treat this VN has been! I've played through to the end of v0.3.0 and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Story and dialogue:
I'm especially enjoying the dialogue in this one because it soon became apparent that Dr Vibes, like me, is Australian.
Reading a story written by an Aussie might throw a few people when it comes to terminology, descriptions, and references, because we're equally well versed in American and British pop culture, not to mention our own home grown idioms that I saw a few of in this VN that will have people going "what the??"
Relationship development is a slow and steady build up. There are a couple of necessary task that need to be repeated, but its not really what I'd call a grind because you vary what you're doing as you progress. You'll find yourself forwarding time a lot in the early stages. More activities come along as more characters are introduced.
This VN does need some patience. Its not recommended for those who just want to get their rocks off. It is more an erotic comedy sci-fi mystery for an audience that like an intelligent story and don't mind taking their time.
Characters:
They start out looking like a default selection for a VN of or similar to this genre: hot milf mum (not yours, this isn't an incest story), eager loving younger daughter, bitchy older daughter, horny as hell neighbour, mum's insatiable and flirty best friend, etc., but the characters in this game have more spark and colour to them. They've got more depth, more involvement with a bigger picture story which makes them more than just prospective fuck toys for the MC.
Graphics:
Honey Select models aren't among my favourite as they tend to be a bit all the same, but Dr Vibes has done what no other dev (that I know of) has managed - He's done a lot to customise and un-Japanese his models! They look much better than most Honey Select models we see in games.
General graphics quality in this VN is very good. There are only a few animations so far, but they're smooth and natural movements.
