A great continuation! I am excited to learn more about this world and it's characters, outside this mansion and desert that we have seen so far.
I do worry if the scope of the project is a tad over ambitious for the size of the team(?) making it, but I hope that they can overcome that and deliver their vision as best as possible.
I will say, the library opeing scene is one of the most impressive scenes I have ever seen in a Renpy game... Seen.
I am 99% sure that the main force behind the censorship was a bunch of tyrannical Christo-facist conservatives.
Real feminists (not the performative my angry ones, or the made up ones that people who hate women use to strawman their arguments), are generally pro-porn and sex work overall, so long as everyone involved in making the porn is doing so consensually.
Conservatives are almost always the ones to try and use censorship as a weapon, as they think education will turn people against them, which it nearly always does.
Enjoying the game!
Will say, quibbles with a certain convo, cops would never let Vigilantes pass, they would likely go after them harder than other criminals.
Cops have to be the top thugs, it is basically their entire reason for existence, the state maintains a monopoly on violence, all violence, even criminal violence, is answerable to the state (as they maintain the right to stop it). This is only true if cops are the top of the civil violence food chain, if someone steps in and does the cops work, then all of the civilians would start asking reasonable questions like "why do the cops get so much funding" and "why can't we, do the cops job, but better with actual community interests in mind?".
So no, cops wouldn't let Vigilantes go because they get the work done, especially not flashy vigilantes that specifically do their work, cops would rather no one do their work, if they aren't doing it.
P.S: WHY THE FUCK IS THE JAPANESE GIRL IMPORTING A NISSAN FROM THE US, ITS A JAPANESE CAR.
Game is fun, though you kinda broke my suspension of disbelief with them going to the police station as civilians to interrogate a suspect of an active investigation.
It just beggars belief that they would actually be allowed to do that. If it's something you want to keep, my tip would be to just make the mum character into an actual cop. It fits what we know of her and would be good characterisation for her, especially if it's brought up earlier.
The scene is still pretty silly in those circumstances, but it makes waaaay more sense that she could leverage her own sway to het MC in there, rather than just sweet talking the desk cop.
Hey, just downloaded the game and got a few steps in. Some constructive criticism, please use contractions in dialogue. I am - I'm, can not - can't, you are - you're, how is - how's etc. Spoken English sounds robotic and stilted without them, and I have seen more than a few times they could have been utilised.
For the "Narrator", please, don't. Unless you intend to characterise the narrator, use inner monologue and in story beats to do exposition. Narration in a written medium is entirely useless (again, unless the narrator is a character themselves.)
A hint for Renpy in particular, please use different colours for the names of different characters, it makes distinguishing who is talking at a glance much easier, especially when the framing isn't obvious.
For some reason I can't rate, but I can comment.
So my review is that this game isn't worth the asked price, when other games (Once in a lifetime, Ripples, The Headmaster), are much more worth your time if you are looking for a wholistic experience, and they are free.
Quality of the textures, lighting, and animations in this game are greater than other games of it's kind, but the still expressions are overly exaggerated and unrealistic, alongside the general character designs which are honestly just silly Inna few cases (Lily and Susan, would it kill a game to have a milf/mature woman that wasn't so stacked she should have chronic back Pain?).
Tje plot is less interesting than other games mentioned, and mostly plays as a loose veneer to get you from porn scene to porn scene.
I'm not asking for perfection, but you are asking for money, so I feel justified in saying that anyone looking for an engaging story alongside their porn should look elsewhere (even elsewhere in this site).
