Haptales you could consider to either add a warning for epileptic or drop the white flash for your H-scene... too many... too much... i loose my eyes after looking at it o_O

Outside that it's a interesting prologue, good luck with your game.

-About multiple protagonist
Each Episode will have his/her own protagonist from the main cast (Every named character from the prologue)
I won't go into detail so as not to spoil anything, but you can think of each episode as a different playthrough of the same VN, only with a different protagonist each time.

-About forced content
Nothing is forced, since you always have the choice to uninstall the patch! ^^
Jokes aside, it will depend on the episode but also on the ending you want.
If you're worried about some tags, the best thing I can say is to wait for the next chapter and see for yourself.
In my opinion, if you have no issues with it, then you shouldn't have any with the rest of the game either.
So there's no route where I can keep them all, where Sayu is Girlfriend, Sora is the lover, Kat is the influential bitch who helps the MC to control the school, and Maya and Misaki are the MC's sex toys?

I've updated the thread with the latest update.

Thanks for letting me know, I can't believe I forgot to add a warning for initial release.
Also don't worry, future H-scenes won't have this many flash transitions and also there will be text in between.

Different protag each time? that's gonna be a no for me dawg.
To explain this further, Episode 1 will have multiple chapters but will only have your named character as the protagonist.
It will also have a good stopping point as an ending so that players who don't care about the bigger picture can stop there without feeling the need to read the next episode.

So there's no route where I can keep them all, where Sayu is Girlfriend, Sora is the lover, Kat is the influential bitch who helps the MC to control the school, and Maya and Misaki are the MC's sex toys?
It might not be as lovey-dovey, but you might like Episode1!

Like what I see so far. The preview scene was good, good x-ray/impregnation side views, so very promising there.

Good writing, had me laughing at several points. The game shows a lot of promise, keep it up!

From playing the game. Got a few chuckles outta me. This is a visual novel where the entire first chapter is gonna be a kinetic visual novel about the player fucking each of the girls then chapter 2 will probably be about the forgotten MC who returns to reclaim his harem from the player that left the game then we're gonna have a Yuji chapter as to divert our expectations to show he's not some sort of mindless jock? I dunno but it being a meta visual novel reminds me somewhat of You, Me and Her. That VN was cool so maybe this'll be as well.

I may come back to this one at some point, but it didn't draw me in like I had hoped when reading the description. It wound up making me feel more uncomfortable about some of the situations, than anything. I like the premise, but I am not sure about the execution of it in this story.

Nice update. The concept of the story is very fun and I had few good chuckles, but, even if I laughed at some of the 4th wall jokes, it can be a bit too much. Even worse, the 4th break seem to be a huge part of the narrative, so it can get pretty tiring or just straight up confusing if it's too many mentions. Other than that, I'm pretty satisfied with the story so far.

I tried to get into this but I damn near wanted to put a perverbal bullet in my head. Why you may ask? Simple.

Pacing.

We go from being the worlds most pathetic of characters, get a odd ball of a fucking chance to turn the tables with an apparent villain arc, only to pretty much go fast pace into things. Additionally, this may as well have a the tag kinetic novel because there are fuck all of choices.

The 4th wall shit is mediocre, there is no real build up to the story other than 'here you go'. Honestly could use a bit more building the character and such in quite a bit of parts, specially early on. Balance out the pacing story wise, even early on, fine tune some things writing wise and maybe this could be a bit of a quirky game for some. For now, I can't really play this. A smidge of promise here, specially with the prospect of knocking up gals which I am slut for, but I can't give my endorsement on this mess.

I don't vibe with the game, gets too close to NTR for me. I respect the original idea though. It's a fairly interesting concept.
