I really want to love this game. As far as sandbox goes this is best you can hope for - amazing house, easy to find rooms (maybe except for laundry room - click on floor left from bathroom while in upper hallway), characters are not in duplicate places and there are even nice details such as clicking on pictures. Obviously renders are amazing and if you don't mind the fetishes this game have then you are in for a good time... in theory.
The thing I absolutely despise is time limit, in any game, ever. And for this particular game, you have already abandoned "realistic" expectations with some details, so there is no need to have "realistic" time limit on some task. Certainly not when it isn't even doable yet. And technically you can still play after this time limit ends, but for me nothing happens after it and game as at standstill so it seems to be just an illusion or repeating the already-seen stuff.
Overall, I think I understand why people don't trust this project, but I don't want it to discourage the developer because at the end of the day what matters is what happens in future and how the game turns out. There have been some games which are absolutely horrible at the start or even have delayed updates, but then the redemption arc starts, some things get changed, updates come either more often or in more polished/finished state and everyone becomes happy again.
So yeah, that's my thoughts. Good luck on the project and hope developer will find the mental strength to look past negative comments and continue the project if able. Peace!
P.S. Another small issue forgot to mention. Choices often feel same and obviously I don't want to check every scenario possible if the minor flavor of text change affects actual routes. So the choices could be more clear or there could be hint system/walkthrough for the game in future, thanks.
