    My review after playing this game.
    This VN is waste of time.
    Story is trash
    Mc is weakling who who can't even defend himself or stand up for himself.
    Also this game reeks NTR vibes in dev notes is written that this game doesn't have that well that's not true.
    After that I deleted game immediately.

    Fuck this game lol

    Was drawn in by the animations in the previews. Note: most of what is there are dream sequence scenes - AKA shit that doesn't happen - AKA a waste of everyone's time. Should have been my first clue that this is a game developed by someone who is still learning. There are a good number of other animated scenes that actually occur (scenes with the blonde girl, all others are dreams or in-universe porn as of v0.1.5) but as soon as I saw the existence of dream sequence BS, I should have closed the game. I know better than that but the animations are good and I had hope. Mistake on my part.

    I read this game used to have NTR but it was pulled out. Well the game still WREAKS of it. The MC is a beta bitch (men, women, you name it - your character is at the bottom of the food chain and honestly that's exactly where the beta bitch deserves to be), and the whole story arc in the game today centers around you and a girl who bullied you falling in love and then falling out of love while another guy wedges his way in and then OH JK IT WAS A PRANK BRO bullshit. Hell, even the character who is supposed to be "your best friend" wreaks of NTR vibes.

    But the worst part is there isn't even any NTR content! So for people who are into NTR - you get fuck all! For the people who aren't NTR - you still get an NTR experience! WHO THE FUCK IS THIS GAME FOR?????

    I'm giving it 2 stars because the animations and character aesthetic designs are great. The text is often poorly translated? Poorly written? Idk, it reads like ESL shit, but it's fine. Navigating the world is tedious as fuck and shameful imo for a developer to think it's acceptable. But I particularly can't get over these stupid game design choices regarding MC and the story. I want to make it clear that while my review talks a lot about kinks, I don't give a shit if people do or don't enjoy those kinks. I just give a shit about a dev giving a cohesive experience. You can't make a game about bestiality and then do a "JK THIS IS A GAME ABOUT HUMAN NECROPHILLIA" half way through. Naturally any review about such a game is going to have to mention those fetishes, because that's the only way to explain why the game is bad. This is that.

    I kinda stopped writing reviews due to how time consuming they are, but this hidden gem definitely deserves one.
    For some reason got instantly hooked into this game after seeing the first animations. Even idle side characters are having some small animations which gives me the feeling of the world being more alive.
    Story so far is also good. People keep saying the MC is an idiot, but I wholeheartedly disagree with this. Given how he grew up, you cant expect him to freaking demolish and dominate everyone. Also his character fits for the story lines so far. He can still grow up to a more badass version, but for now, its ok.

    Music is good too. Its good enough to keep me playing. Not too boring to too hyped.

    Tits are a bit big yes, but you can still enjoy the girls art very much.

    The only thing saddening me is the removal of the ntr paths. its always nice to see what alternative paths are possible for the characters to fall into (personally I like blackmail stuff etc) but whatever. It allows for faster progress in the story so thats a nice thing too.
    Maybe he will add it later on again, after the harem route finishes....

    Anyway its a great game and I immediately subscribed on his patreon. I wish for the dev a great journey!

    PROS
    + Hayato, MC's best friend is good pal, and it's refreshing to see MC not having dumb AF, pervert, annoying best friend like most cliche games in this style.
    + In the sandbox there are people doing some stuff, like hanging around, sitting on benches, talking, etc, they do have animations, so it looks good, and gives a kind of alive sandbox world feeling as well.
    + Sex scenes have animations.

    CONS & SUGGESTIONS
    - In the story, we have been told MC's parents died, then he started living with his family and close friend, but he died as well, and now he is living with his wife, and daughters, honestly it feels a bit meh, feels like DEV tried soo hard to avoid Patreon Police, maybe adding simple relationship change options would be better instead of ways like this.
    - MC feels bit too weak, stupid, and hasty, how he jumped blackmail tries of Asuna, then got caught while following her, and told her ''I'm sorry Asuna, please don't spread the video'', then literally kneel down in front of her after she asked him to do, then let Asuna take a picture of him while he is kneeled down and Asuna's foot on his head, etc, was quite disappointing, annoying, and makes quite hard to like him as a MC..
    - Nearly every character in the game treats MC like a sh*t, and that's straight up nonsense, and annoying AF.
    - Asuna's existence, and she is constantly trying to create blackmail material to blackmail the MC, etc, was quite annoying, in later updates we have been told she is like MC & Hayato, grow up in foster care, don't have wealthy family, and bullied MC & Hayato because she was jelaous seeing how they stand strong despite their family situation, and same time didn't wanted to caught on, so she constantly bullies them, etc, which is dumb AF... But at least now she is put in her place.
    - Visually the game looks a bit low quality, and old, it's like 2015-2020 era visual quality, and better render quality for pictures & animations is needed. And removing flying weird hand pictures could be good, they look really weird.
    - Sex scene animations needs better physics, and better positions/angles currently they are not bad, but they are not better than average, but they have potential to become pretty good, some little improvements can be game changer.
    - Characters need design changes, generally, they need less saggy tits, especially in sex scene animations even the youngest girl's tits look too saggy, and they stretch too much, especially Miho has a pretty cute face, and looks great when she is clothed, but when she is naked she looks bad because of her saggy tits, and too big areolas and along with saggy tits thing she had very fat, and bad looking ass in the animations as well, even tho she didn't have that fat, and big ass with the clothes on, so it seems DEV need to figure out how to use proportions correctly. Some characters need facial changes as well, like Akari, she has a really big forehead for no reason, making it smaller could make her far more attractive. And Yuna, again big forehead, and really bad hair.
    - MC could have use more handsome face, better hairstyle, etc, since the direction is going towards he is getting the girls, it would only make sense him to look better.
    - Menu/HUD/UI looks bad, it can use some improvements.
    - Hints show up when you only click on them, then a new menu pops up, and you need to close that menu to continue, so either hints show up when you just drag your mouse, and you shouldn't need to open a new menu and close it, or at least closing new pop up shouldn't need to click ''x'' button on that new pop up, like clicking anywhere on screen should close it, etc. Currently getting hints feels a bit tedious, changing it would be a pretty good idea.
    - Better profreading needed, even some really simple words are misspelled like in prologue MC's father called ''dady'' instead of ''Daddy'' etc.
    The rollback dialogue feature does not always work, seems kind of inconsistent.

    VERDICT
    Honestly, I was going to give 3 stars since it's a new game, but especially how pathetic MC was, and the render quality looking too old for this year made me change my mind, I will be giving 2 stars, hope DEV will do a better job with upcoming updates, and makes the game reach the potential it has, I personally think this can be 4 stars rate game with the fixes, so we will see.

    Awesome character designs, and very nice renders. The plot isn't all that much, but it's fun. And for some weird reason one of the best starting screen songs I've heard on a game from this site.
    (For all the scaredy-cats out there, apparently the creator is thinking of scrapping NTR from the game.)

    New Family, old story ...

    It is early days, but lays the foundations and hints at what to expect in the future, with a little bit of mystery thrown in.

    If you dig the art-style, you'll dig the animations - nice and fluid (although, it all just suddenly happens) with the added bonus of sfx.

    The dialogue is a bit wooden at times, but serviceable.

    A big no-no is sex dream sequences - it ruins interest in a potential LI. If one must have these types of scenes, at least keep it to titillation - which would aid in building the erotic tension for that character instead of going full nuclear.

    Anyway!

    ... I'll check it out in the future after some more updates, maybe you should, too.

    I'll start by saying that I've NEVER written a review for any game, maybe out of laziness, but I'll dedicate a few minutes to this one, it's the first time I've seen the background animations while you play, so congratulations, I'm sure this game will be a great success, I'll be happy to be your big supporter, very very nice

    Amazing models. Amazing animation. Quality sound design. Interesting start to the story. Decent amount of content for a 0.1 version. I'm beyond impressed, and honestly I'm excited to see where this one goes. Hopefully the dev updates consistently.
