I think that when Cole gets angry, instead of calling them millenials he should call them zoomers, because it's more accurate and funnier imo.
Also I really like how different routes affect the other characters as well, like how Tom invites you to the gym because of Maccon instead of having a serious talk about shitty parents when you run away from him in the morning.
I love the inclusion of Jayce's portrait for when he speaks, it may not seem like much to some but being able to see the protagonist's face in a first person visual novel isn't a given. Although I'm a bit confused at the inclusion of the front facing portraits for John and Rask when you also see their full body sprites, I believe the front facing portraits should be used whenever characters are "in your party" per se, so imagine they're next to Jayce, while he is talking to a third character (is that clear? Or should I try rephrasing that im not sure if it's understandable)
All in all this is a great wip VN, I plan on starting to support you on patreon soon, you deserve it monchimutt!
