Dear Shikharsfree, Please do not be deterred by so-called, "criticism." Your VN is excellent, and all of your characters are interesting and serve your amazing plot. Keep focused on the story YOU want to tell. Trust yourself. You are doing a great job! Continued best wishes, and Good Luck!

If you are slow to create main story. Why try milk with "side story."?

Twisting Vines. The Way. Element 174. Summer Scent. Vis. Crime of Rise Lord. Torrid Tales.
I can tell more 50 games with too much time wasted in "side story" or "useless paths".

All Devs too slow to create too much paths = Few support.
But if you are creating games to get NO money. Only for passion. Change nothing.

Alright so first of all , I took the months break to actually work on the script so no wasn't slow or anything , we did a little oerhaul to decide few side stories that don't matter much to be finished.

however stuff such as , evelyn , john , mia can't exactly just be ignored. They are literally plot points for future when kiara meets them.

Secondly , i get it.. you probably just want a vanilla game where a girl works and gets groped or turns to a slut within like 5 hours of someone touching her and that's fine really , I'm not gonna judge you

But i kinda want to make something different , It's fine if i get a little slow on money because i know i'm making something good.

With that said , I still take it into consideration so we are going reduce the side stories to very few.

Thanks man ,I do take most stuff into consideration and we are gonna reduce few of the side stories sure. but there are things i can't just ignore away... so

SPOILERS FROM HER ->

Stuff like evelyn and jake.. it has to be there because when she finds out the truth , kiara's the one to kind of calm her sister.
Veronica's whole side plot with john , Kiara again fights for her own custody later alongside her.

I can go on and on but yeah , some things we can't really ignore but we will try to wrap up most side stories by 0.6 so it 's only kiara / mc from there.

I do dislike people saying taking time because , It takes time to actually write something that makes sense and isn't just " oh i got hit by a car guess i'll just fuck the plumber" So yeah.

Do.. do you even read what you type? lmao

wat

I played it, but it doesn't appeal to me because i don't know anything about Japanese culture, so to me it is a mix of very unrealistic things. But if you are a developer and can't stand any criticism, your not in a good place in this comment section.

Um , have you read any of my previous comments? See this is what i mean exactly , few of you love to point out how the dev is at fault before even seeing what they've done.

I've addressed just about every problem and stuff notified to me here , you can literally see that development in the updates and versions as well.

Examples of this?
Complains and feedback ->
1- Mc looks older than mom = Changed model and character outline and face.
2 - Not enough japanese girls or people in scenes = Literally included a cast that's asian mostly
3 - focus more on kiara = rewrote parts of scripts to make sure nyc scenes are done in lesser renders
4 - give us more choices in order to escape situations altogether rather than be with them = Gave options to just not do the jobs and refuse to be even touched.

I could go on again but point is , I am okay with criticism that makes sense , it's how i improve the game. so maybe before commenting something so naive , be smart.
