Dear Astraeum,
for you, i will post my very first comment on itch.first of all i have to agree with some of the former commentators, for example:
Simulacrum29: i badly "hate" it when i had to re-read the text, it absolultety disturbed the "scenery/ atmosphere".
i found some typing mistake here and there (you even once wrote Ceecline) but its alright, nothing that disturbed the flow or reading.
but i found kind of... "unnormal" (i played quite a lot of games in this genre and made with ren'py) if the style you made some action-scenes, for example the first real "action" scene: it had like 10 or 12 pictures without any text in it. my recommendation is making either an animation out of it or make it automatically go to the next picture after 0,25 seconds. but pressing a button for every picture was kind of... disturbing for me, since it "broke" the action (btw: at this point sorry for my bad english) xD
never the less: you mentioned the first chapter can be kind of "confusing" but after a while you can get the hang of it. i already ahve quite some theories you "mentioned indirectly" (like time traveling or seeing past, present and future at the same time etc.) i like that you dont want to spoiler anything, but i think the mentioning that i "can be confusing" made it more confusing xD
Last big "mistake" i found (and i found it really bad) was the first... "xxx-scene" the last animation was too fast and the text too long. even if some people like it that way, the whole screen shaking is making the reading harder.
btw: sometimes a "leg gets through a skirt" (graphic error) but on short scenes, it doesnt matter (actually my wife saw it before me xD)
all in all : your story so far has potential and i like to see some updates in the future, im sure to try it again when some updates are coming.
