moustache or mustache... If I was the developer, I'd give a hint of "8 or 9 letters" and I'd accept both answers.

Also, since you want all lowercase but don't convert the answer into lowercase, I'd do it too so it doesn't matter how the player types the answer even with their caps lock on:
Code:
$ answer = renpy.input("Your answer:", allow="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz- ", length=10).lower()

Oh, I managed to defeat Dessy in the introductory fight. Then all dialogue was written if I lost. If there is a possibility to win a fight, take it into account in the dialogue. Otherwise, make the last winning round impossible to win. ;)

The same, I assumed that whether you win or lose - the result is the same, could have saved some time if I knew beforehand.

While creating this battle, I did write victory dialogue, and I was planning to develop an achievement system later where winning would unlock an achievement. However, if you're only seeing the dialogue for failure, it might be a bug. I'll check it, thanks for reporting.

I like the game. I like it's mechanics in general, fighting mechanics is cool too, though it's hard to win against more skilled NPCs, like for example at the start, or in the gym.
Though, the 1st fight is a bit of a waste, if it's a bug, then ok.

It's a coincidence, but I played the game at night with headphones, and DID I have a fucking goosebumps during some scenes, especially when the nightmare with Jess happened, damn, that was creepy... and amazing, I can tell ya, it was the 1st time i felt like this while playing a VN.
I really hope there will be more scenes like this. It could have been even better with a proper music (more dread), cause music helps to create an atmosphere a lot.
I am surprised the game doesn't have horror tag, it definitely deserves it much more than some other games that already have it.

The LIs are ok in my opinion, there are girls for every taste - shy one, slutty one, milf, ex etc.
Hard to judge their personalities cause there is little content so far. The models are very beautiful though.

The story (the premise) is very cool, I really want to know what happens next in the mean plot. The writing though could be polished, too bald if you ask me.

UI is good as well, pretty simple and intuitive.

Now, some moments that were a bit off or just poor (only my perspective of course, maybe it will help you in some way):

1) The 1st fight, it took me some time to win))), it should be rewarded in the end not with the same scene), we discussed it already.
2) When at the start MC, Luna, Doc and Lanxin were discussing the disease, Doc said smth that it's serious and Luna with a smile on her face said smth like "exactly like news said", I assume you didn't want to waste time on one more render, but smiling Luna looked really weird at that serious moment.
3) The 1st event with Lanxin (pics guessing), it happened that I played this event almost in the end (after I went shopping with her and met her at the Doc etc), to this moment I knew already what's her disease, but she says "Hello Alex, I have special condition that prevents me from speaking".
Yeah, well, it looked a bit off, like it's the 1st time we meet. I get it - it's a sandbox, but maybe it would be a good idea to block some events until previous one are played (make it - so I can't go shopping with Lanxin until I finished her 1st event at home etc), or just write neutral text.
I mean you already did well with Jane, we can't get on the yacht until we massage her at home. The same should be with all other LIs, - consistency.
Such messy/chaotic moments break immersion immediately personally for me.
4) Titty fuck from Luna was just out of nowhere, maybe I am just a picky prick who likes solid logical story, but damn, that was very unexpected. Oh, and no one mentions it in a game later (even in Codex it is not mentioned), unlike after the night with Jess.
5) The last but not least, writing, I am not a native as you can judge from my text, but reading some dialogues did hurt even me, a lot.
I made some notes while playing the game, maybe it will be useful for you (I'll send it in DM).

Thank you so much for sharing all these, these are very valuable reviews. I'll take into account and make the game better.

BTW, I might misunderstand before about what you said about the fight. I thought it's with Dessy(The second fight in gym) but I realized later that you mean the first fight in the nightmare right? That was a tutorial fight, with the same outcome regardless of winning or losing. Perhaps I should add a hint before this fight to avoid wasting time...

I think there was a different scene right after the Dessy fight. :unsure: What I was trying to tell that all following scenes only had dialogue giving an impression that Dessy won the fight. I don't have the game files anymore but for example the discussion with Luna didn't have any if statements.

... the first fight in the nightmare right? That was a tutorial fight, with the same outcome regardless of winning or losing. Perhaps I should add a hint before this fight to avoid wasting time...
Hints are boring for an unwinnable fight. For fights you want to unwinnable, you could make the NPC to break the "fight rules" and have them counter MC's winning attack. It should make it clear to the player that the fight was to be lost. ;)

Yeah, just add a note that outcome will be the same.
Because I lost the fight and then kept trying for a while just to get the same scene in the end.

Also, forgot in previous post.
The same confusing situation with which event with Luna should be played first (TV-kiss or kiss in a pool), i played it so kiss in the pool was second, but then i replayed and if we kiss her in the pool party first - she mentions it when we kiss her at home, so probably event should be after pool party?. Anyways, yeah, order a bit confusing for me, like with Lanxin.

P.S. I sent some dialogues notes in DM

Good luck with a game

Personally i don't like the fight mechanics at all, seems to me there's no skill involved really just guesswork.
Well, skills do matter when you hit (strength, speed), I mean, that "scary woman" in the gym just one-shot me - one hit and 4 damage, while we usually do either 1 damage or miss, I stoped even trying after a couples of attempts in order not to waste time. I mean to beat her - we have to hit her 5 times (if there are no misses) and not take any hits from her.
As for rock paper scissors, yeah, probably guessing.

But defeat probably was meant to be in the gym, I haven't had any problems with Jess in a nightmare.
In general mechanics is cool, its like in any other game - you can't defeat a mob who is much more skilled than you. to do that - you have to get better.

Interesting premise....but still lacking content. Very short, not bad animations - a bit slow motion style but still not bad ...
