I finished chapter one now which already has a lot of content (~3.5 hours).

Despite what others might say, I really enjoyed the art. In the sea of Daz3D games one can play today, it is quite refreshing to see someone aiming for a unique and recognizable look. 

Paired with the general visual presentation (with the occasional "comic panels" or very stylized scenes) I think the graphics work pretty well. Also there are quite a lot of short animation bits, that help make the characters feel alive.

But more important than that, the story and themes of the game are done pretty well. I really liked the whole psychology theme with some scenes that really made me connect to the protagonist (referring to the brilliant inner monologue at the end of the yoga session for example). 

On top of that comes a lot of user interaction compared to other adult visual novels combined with a relatively complex point/skill system that has me intrigued.

Kudos also for the attention to detail, for example in the very elaborate chess matches. 

The only critique I want to express is the pacing that is very slow at points. In a porn game I expect a certain amount of sexual scenes every now and then. This game however has some rather long passages of strictly non-sexual scenes where the game feels more like an all-ages drama rather than an R18 game. As a general direction for the game this is not a problem but a rather welcome change, but the pacing still needs to be varied enough to keep the players engaged.

To summarize my short review: Keep up the good work and keep trying out different stuff. Having some new approaches to the genre is always welcome. I'm looking forward to future updates of the game!

Thanks for the kind words and feedback. 

Pacing is indeed one of the hardest things to get right. On one hand, I want the players to  care about the characters so that when the sex scenes come they are more meaningful. On the other hand, this is a +18 game and players expect a certain dose of sex scenes and not just character development.

This first chapter had a lot of characters and themes to introduce and perhaps I misjudged the ratio of non-sexual/sexual scenes a bit. I believe this will improve as the game progresses and the characters become more well established. Then, there will be a higher number of sex scenes and kinks per chapter for the players to explore.
