====================

I don't want to waste your time, so here's a quick rundown of the game:

Selling Points

- "Strip 'em up" turn-based bullet hell gameplay for many of the characters. Meet the right people, do a good job, knock off their clothes. Simple as that.

- 6+ fully romanceable characters (maybe there are some secret ones -- you'll have to find out).

- Several other "partially romanceable" characters.

- Interactive adult (NSFW) scenes and art. (Thanks to the amazing, gifted Hatdog Guhitera yinyang, and Calx for the art!)

- Adult (NSFW) sound clips accompany many of the NSFW interactions in the game. (Thanks to the lovely, talented Cynth for voice work!)

- Potentially funny and/or deep writing at times. Some people might not think so.

- No censorship, full nudity.

- You can sniff (almost) every bed. It's a long story.

- A fully-unique, custom "battle dating" system that helps liven up RPG Maker by not using the traditional native battle system.

- Fully-fleshed out fantasy story narrative where you play a new mage at a prestigious academy, destined to save the Andere Realm.

- Many secrets, if you know where to look.

- A handful of minigames, some of which parody other games that are much better than mine, such as "Parchment, Please" and "Like a Phoenix: Mage Attorney."

- A warning system for letting people consent only to the content they want to see.

- Many (but not all) books in the game are fully readable. There are likely a couple hours of content just in the reading.

- Many random events for the female main character to be the target of NPC desire.

- Some innocence/corruption gameplay elements, generally revolving around the six main stats.

- A hidden character that will give you NSFW instructions to follow in real life, if desired and if playing as the male main character.

- A panty collection system, with general pairs collected in high numbers, and specific pairs from specific romantic interests collected as trophies.

- A spell that lets you summon a wolf you can pet whenever you want (yes, I do think this is a selling point).

- The ability to get an X-Ray helm that lets you run around peeking under clothes.

- A full postgame that still allows you to do some of the minigames and romance some of the characters even after you've completed the plot. The postgame also includes bonus art and a bonus village to visit.

Drawbacks

- Resolution. It's a limitation of RPG Maker VX Ace. You CAN get full screen with F1 while playing, if you want. (Note: It has been found in testing that this can cause some text to get cut off; limitation of the engine)

- Scenes aren't animated. It just wasn't in the budget. I focused on commissioning versatile, quality art instead.

- Hit boxes can be finicky, another RPG Maker VX Ace limitation. Best to avoid bullets or stand still well ahead of time. About half the time, the finicky nature works out in the player's favor, however. The mechanic of not moving when bullets are close is key to combat, and trying to "outsmart" the engine often results in damage. I recommend moving one square at a time very carefully when you're in a tight spot.

- While this game was already playtested extensively, I developed it entirely on my own. Bugs are still possible. I will try to get fixes out, but you might have to make a new save.

- The game could have benefited from full voice acting and more poses/facial expressions, to be honest. I'm happy with what's here, but I wanted you to be aware.

- A warning system for letting people consent only to the content they want to see. Yes, this is also under Selling Points. I feel many people won't want to have to click past a warning to see NSFW content, but it was important to me for this game. Hopefully it's not too obtrusive.

- The "go everywhere, get everything, do everything" play time is probably only about 10-15 hours max. You could speed run this game in 3-5. I did try to add replayability, but be aware it's not a 50-hour game.
