I can't help but agree with other commentators. I understand that your resources for creating this game may be meager, but 5 versions in, with mini updates in between, and there are so few lewd scenes. Each scene is hand drawn, and I can appreciate that, but it feels like it'll be a while before we get anywhere good, especially with the new conflict that has been introduced between Blake and MC. Poor Jerome man, nearly killed just wanting to help MC and Billy. Honestly makes me feel bad for the guy, especially with how brutally his face was beaten. Didn't expect to see that level of violence in this originally cute (even if lewd with depressing aspects) game. His smile at the beginning when you meet him, to seeing him being bloody and bruised is fudged. Kinda ruins the mood a little, especially since you don't have the choice to punch Blake or not, so you can't even prevent all that from happening.
Edit: Just wanted to add, that this is not hate, as I said I appreciate how you work hard drawing the art yourself rather than relying on AI or someone else, but the direction this is going seems to be steering somewhat from how things looked like it was going, especially with the title. From the looks of it as well, it seems like it might overwhelm you with how much this story is expanding. As someone else said, the cast you showed (Jerome, Old Man, Youngings, and Nerd) seemed like a decent enough set of diversity for people to enjoy. I enjoy forced content, and wouldn't mind what Blake could bring, but it just feels like such a sudden change. A bit forced, especially with how it looks like Jerome is being put sidelined possibly with what happened to him.
