    I just wanted to increase the rating a little because while this VN has a lot of flaws, it shows that its developer does everything he can to make it look good. And to be honest, for a first VN, it’s really not bad and shows progress with the last release (0.3).

    The writing is the biggest issue here as the dialogues are quite bland, very generic, and the worst are when the MC is thinking, and he thinks a lot, most of the time of useless things.

    Renders are getting better with time, but the dev should focus more on the lighting, it needs improvement. Animations are just ok, not fapping material if that’s what you’re looking for.

    The story is good and is a welcome change from the thousands of VNs featuring a teenager attending University/College for the first time, those get very quickly annoying, unless you’re a teenager yourself and I’m far from being one. But once again the writing is at fault here, it could be much more interesting with a better writer.

    The love interests are all beautiful, with each their own character, but one of them already has a boyfriend and looks happy with him, while still lightly flirting with the MC, so I don’t really see where the dev is going with this (well, I’ve decided to avoid her in my playthrough until I see what the endgame is).

    To be 100% honest it deserves a 3/5 at the moment, but I give it a 4 to motivate the dev.

    There is so much unnecessary and uninteresting dialogue that just goes on and on and on. The premise for the story is actually not bad. If the characters actually had something interesting to say it would be a lot better. The animations are halfway decent.
    I don't think I'll even come back to this one. It's just boring due to the constant jabbering about nothing important at all.
