As for the game itself (the rework version), it was... eh... lol.

Renders are fine, animations are fine, music is good, but the characters and story are just... not there. Like, who are these people that the MC knows? What does the MC do? Why are people after him? Where is the story? It just all feels so random. There is no direction to anything. No cohesive story, just random things happening.

It's like the author thought of cool scenes, and then just threw it all together without seeing if they actually fit together. There is so many different things going on, none of which explains the story as a whole.

Like I said, the other stuff was alright, but the story is all over the place. Same with the characters. While it looks and sounds pretty, the rest just wasn't good (for me at least). Plus, the "development cycle" of this game makes me wary to trust this won't be abandoned again.

Either way, best of luck with this again and thanks for the upload.

If the creator of the game is loking for constructive criticism :

The game is pretty good rendre wise, but I want to talk about animations. More specifically, Camera animations. The issue is that you are using linear translations and rotations, and that feels stiff.
On a walking characher, that's fine, because the speed of the object is a constant, but the issue arises for other animations. One such obvious example is the animations when we encounter certain new female characters.
The transition between two phases of the full animation is wayy too stiff, and that's because we are going form a set speed (and rotation) to another in some 0.01 seconds ; there is no transition.
You can solve this issue either manually, or with Bézier curves, but I don't know if honey sellect supports that...

But that's the same for other animation, and using non linear translations could improve the quality a lot, by not throwing us out of the experience due to a too-sharp and abrupt turn.

You say that, but the other extreme is also shit, where devs just explains every little thing. Exposition intro (This is my mom, she is a nice lady that cares for me. This is my little sister, she is very cute, bla bla. My dad went out for milk and never came back.), Q&A sessions with LIs to discuss their entire life story and motivations, and incessant, never ending inner monologues.

So when you say things aren't explain thoroughly, I can't tell if you are just being a lazy reader or if the writing really is meandering and needlessly confusing.

That said, this dev's development cycle thus far is hilarious and I refuse to play it to find out lol.

Nothing about being lazy, the writing really does tell you nothing.

So, there you go. Feel free to check it out yourself. Funny thing is, after reading some of the comments in this thread from the old version, seems there was some back story and more information in the original version. But for some reason, the dev removed all of that in this new rework. No idea why.
