- Pregnancy content: Three girls with multiple stages spread out over time AND tied into the plot - impressive! I don't really have anything else to add, I just want to see how this continues. Gameplay: It's a choice-based VN, so it's not really anything groundbreaking, but I enjoyed the choices and the story presented here, which I will count as gameplay in this case. I still can't really give much more, but it was nice! Creativity: I really liked the flow and pacing of the story, even if the ending was not finished. I'm not sure if I should give more points for just how ambitious this was for a jam, or deduct them for the same reason - overreaching. I think I've settled on a fair assessment, however. Personal thoughts: Definitely the most ambitious of all the games we had this year, and surprisingly complete for what it wanted to do, too. I liked the girls and the fact that pregnancy was so integral to it all, though I gotta say that the current ending feels like a bit of a copout, most likely just because it wasn't given enough time to really stew. What is there, however, is really good and I hope to see the proper ending added sometime soonish, since this has me genuinely interested.
- Great story and enjoyable game, longer than I expected. Looking forward to seeing this when it's complete!

so , why i can not import the "savegames"? i could not save and import my progress. somebody knows?
really need help!! it is my favorite h5 game so far.
I'm glad you liked the game! What are you trying to do with your saves for this game? I'm happy to help if I can understand what you're trying to do. :)
this was my favorite so far by far
Hey boss! Played through the whole game once and enjoyed it immensely! Looking forward to when it's all the way done, with hopes there'll be a version for various platforms, as well as a save function. Playing through a choice based game without being able to go back was a new and interesting experience, but not one I'd have more than once per game. Tally Ho!
This was a very interesting game, though at least in its current incarnation it is really more of a visual novel. It's also very incomplete when it comes to the visuals, and I really wanted to see some of those visuals. That said, the dev has stated up front that they had to focus on story in order to make the deadline, and in that regard I think they succeeded admirably. The story does reach a solid stopping point, and hangs together well until then, though I certainly hope there are plans to continue it on further. One gripe, though, involves our MC's mentor before, who admits her feelings for him before he unceremoniously disappears from her life forever. Honestly, it left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. I say either have her acknowledge his feelings but keep things fully platonic, or bring her in somewhere down the line, perhaps as a request the MC makes to the goddess after the current events of the story have played out. As it is, it's a loose thread that feels both unnecessary and slightly cruel. Speaking of slightly cruel, I see the story value of having the one sister desire big boobs and get a huge ass instead, but as I am more into boobs myself, I felt her pain. Anyway, I think this is a tremendous start, and I look forward to a more complete and updated rendition of the game.
Yo
Really nice story. 3d CG is not mi favorite type of art but that work. And the story is so captivating that I forgot about 3D. I like how you did your background too. You also have an interesting background.
For Gamplay it's mostly about choice. I don't know if it changes much in replayability but it makes you want to restart the game.
I know you dont have much time. But I was a little sad not to have music (maybe a bug.)
Thank for you work i really lost a lot of time because I had a good time. Cya for update or another game. :3
You clearly put so much time and effort into this, like wow. Not usually a VN guy but this one really sucked me in (and it lasted me like 3 hours, which is HUGE for a game jam). Fantastic job!
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it! :D
had so much fun from the story and loveable characters cant wait to play again
Thank you!
Looking forward to being able to download it and use it as a normal renpy VN - if indeed that is planned. Not being able to save is pretty rough... other than that it seems pretty great so far!
Yea, I'll make sure to do that soon. Thank you for the kind words!
I liked a lot! Nice setting, nice writing, nice transitions and all that for free. Amazing! I am also hyped for the fleshed out version.
Thanks! I'll make sure I post it here when it's all done! :D
Great story and great game. Cant wait to see the finished product.
Thank you!!
Hey if anyone finds bugs, please do report them on the Discord channel - here: https://discord.gg/Tqnh9tTCK7
Current version has a lot to love, I'm looking forward to this getting fleshed out a bit more
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!
That was really nice! I loved the story you managed to write in such a short time, too bad you didn't get to the end, I'd love to this it finished some day. I was a little sad to see Aurora wasn't in the story anymore so soon, I really liked her and would love to see her come back to the hero in a way XD
The characters were a little stereotyped but it actually worked well and the choices to make for their love weren't too obvious and logical to their characters, it was really well done.
the menu with the house was a nice touch, really cute way to chose where to go.
Only real critic : I would have liked to have a way to scroll back on the text sometimes when I clicked too fast and didn't have the time to read.
Overall, I've spent a real good time playing your game, thank you for making it!
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I plan on doing some debugging and will add in the menus (including skip, save, etc) in the near future. I omitted them because (embarrassingly) I didn't actually have time to make a menu screen. :)
