Looking pretty solid so far. Would be happy to buy the full version when it comes out (hopefully a future steam release for the dev?;)
Anyway, one slightly trivial critique.
In the beginning, my protag stands up for Simon when he's getting bullied and pushed around on the first day. And this dude, Simon, does NOT even say a simple "thanks" afterwards. Like, I'm out here risking my own personal safety, trying to stick up for a guy who I basically just met, and the dude has not a single ounce of gratitude? And THEN, to add salt to the wound, he does the whole "I could've beaten them if >protag< didn't stop me!" trope. YO. NAH BRO. Rubbed me the wrong way, for real. It honestly made me want nothing to do with Simon for a good 60% of the game.
In fact, it's only KOKO who gave props to the protag. So strange.
Anyway, happy to see a non-harem dating sim on here. Will follow this one and see where it goes. Hoping for the best.
