Damn the art is great. Awesome shading, it's so clean.
And that it's consistent with the in-game images (forgot the word for those, oops), not just the sprites. In a lot of games the sprites look nice/alright, but the full-screen custom images look very off to the character's design/terrible. So major kudos here.
The writing is way better than most BL stuff I try on here (and that are complete games here or elsewhere as well...), so props to that too... forgot that was a demo and not an actual complete game xd.
Love that the MC dude isn't a short bland stereotype ''BL'' boy too, both in looks and personality.
That and details like pointing out that Hylo's jacket clearly isn't helping with being incognito xd
So far I really like Hylo (+) and Ash and the dynamic with the MC, it's pretty natural and didn't drag.
Looking foward to more if that happens.
Since this is just a demo, dunno about the choice affecting much, but hopefully it's not super linear with the dialog options (grinding love interest points). I get that this time of dialog branching might be hell to code and organize though, so just a thought, not a complain.
(+ like the person below me... that jacket + a purple shirt is not a look imo )
