Oh my, thanks a lot for your logn and detailed feedback, it means so much from you!!!!!
"Because as a bi guy who's mostly gay, anything yaoi and fujoshi are sensitive subjects to me due to how insensitively they're usually portrayed" -> understand that as a biromantic guy... When I realised how terrible the portrait of gay relationships yaoi media depict was, I really wanted to write stories to deconstruct their tropes. And I'm glad I managed not to disappoint you on this one!
"whilst I want to wholeheartedly support and trust my friend, chimeriquement, I honestly still went into this game rather guarded..." -> And yet, you gave my game a shot. Thanks for your trust!!!
"She's willing to learn from her mistakes and I'm intrigued to see how she'll grow in the full version" -> Ha ha, I guess seeing these boys struggle might help her realise some things!
"Ofc, there are scenes where Hana's fujoshi mode just made me supremely uncomfortable" -> (you have no idea how uncomfortable yet somehow amused I was when I wrote those)
"( What's up with devs and meek protags agshsjdk )" -> I don't really know, and from what I see, it seems like players want the meek protag trope to be more present again; for my part, I really think my protagonists should be characters as fleshed-out as the love interests.
"I may or may not have clapped when he also shot Hana's fetishisation down" -> Actually, this scene is in the prologue thanks to you! When you told me I should try to indicate in the demo that the game would be tackling fetishisation, I rewrote the scene to include it there!
"Oliver is definitely my favorite character so far" -> (he's also mine; Renjiro and Daisuke are close, considering I know their full-development, but yes, I do believe in Oliver's supremacy)
"bi and pan are quite confused with each other it's insane agshdjkd" -> I swear, everytime I ask someone the difference, the explanation they come up with is different!!!! I thought it'd be a fun touch to include (and also, a way to show the player that I am document about LGBTQ+ issues and therefore conscious about what I should and should not do in this game)
"All in all, the characters are lovable in their own way and they bounce off of each other really well" -> Oh, thank you! I worked hard to make sure their dynamics were fun and balanced, thanks for noticing that!!!!!
"Thank you for making this game" -> Thank you for having played it and taken so much time to share your thoughts on it!! It means so much from you!!!!
With even bigger love (what do you mean this is not a competition?),
someone who's neither a hare, nor winged
