    There isn't much here for now, which makes sense; it is only v0.01, but from what is given, it paints somewhat of a picture of what the dev is going for.

    That being said, I'm not sure I like the picture being painted. It seems rather straightforward and dull. Kinda like a run-of-the-mill romance VN. Basically, it's Wise hooking up with Nicole, and presumably other girls down the line, and that's it.

    The problem with this is that the game doesn't show off anything in the way of fetishes, so I have to assume there isn't any. And if that's the case, the game pretty much lives or dies on whether you wanna see Wise have sex with a few of the ZZZ girls.

    For some, that may be enough, but as someone who's a fan of ZZZ, it wouldn't be for me. Just having ZZZ girls in your game isn't enough to carry it. You need plot and you need fetishes.

    If it were me, I'd maybe pivot away from the straight romance stuff and try to focus more on some juicy fetish-type stuff. The more risque the better, too.

    And this is just me, but I'd also leave Wise behind as a main character. I don't know what it is, but as a ZZZ player, we see enough of him to where he's kinda like one of the boys, and I don't wanna see one of the boys naked, if you know what I mean.

    To be fair to the game, I like its idea; I just hope it starts going in the right direction. "Great idea, poor execution."

    Pros:
    -Nice animations
    -authentic ZZZ look

    Cons:
    -no real plot
    -no fetishes (a H game death sentence)
    -as of now, no real content (only a short boob job)
    -no voice acting (with how good the voice acting is in ZZZ and with how good modern AI voicing tech is, it feels like a missed opportunity, but that's more of a me thing)
