    Very promising game. High quality content.

    This is finally a game that actually has interesting characters AND an interesting story.

    The 2D art is very well done, some scenes have smooth 2D animations, and all characters have a recognizable and unique design that feels like it captures the character instead of the many interchangeable characters that plague a lot of games today.

    The writing is pretty good. It's to the point and doesn't overstay it's welcome. The writer is confident they've captured what they went after, and they're not wrong about it either. This is also true for sex scenes. They move through the scene beats without rotating back to a prior element and gradually move the scene forward through the emotional tones the scene is meant to carry.

    The writing is accompanied with voice acting that, at times, may have benefitted a bit if the volume was more equalized instead of the shifts in volume, but that's only rarely noticeable.
    The voice actors give a good impression as well. They so far fit the characters and deliver the lines well - no monotonous reading here.
    The only downside - sometimes the dialogue text does not quite match what's being said as words are added, dropped, or changed. Sometimes a part of a sentence is also not voiced, as if added by the writer yet never recorded by the VA. This is rare, though. Almost all dialogue lines are fully voiced.

    The game is still pretty short - and there aren't a lot of sex scenes yet - arguably none involving the MC. But what is there is an engaging story I'm interesting to play - not just for the smooth sex scenes, but the story, the world and the characters that inhabit it.

    Looking forward to the release!

    Strengths:

    High production value: The review clearly highlights the game's impressive visuals, animation, and voice acting.
    Engaging writing and pacing: You mention that the writing is concise and the pacing is excellent, keeping the player engaged.
    Appealing aesthetic: You acknowledge the stylized, anime-inspired visuals and how they might not appeal to everyone, but express your personal appreciation.
    Unique vibe: You recognize the game's distinct atmosphere and how it contributes to the overall experience.
    Areas for improvement:

    Specificity: Instead of saying "p good" or "pretty awesome," use more specific and descriptive language to paint a clearer picture for the reader.
    Examples: Provide concrete examples of voice acting performances you enjoyed or aspects of the animation that found appealing.
    Worldbuilding: You briefly mention an interesting world, but elaborating on specific details or elements that captivated you could add depth to the review.

    P good. Super high production value. Voice acting that while mixed in quality does have some p good performances and is never unbearable, which is usually the norm for any game like this with voice acting.

    Animations and art is cool, it's stylized of course if you don't like anime it won't help, but I think its nice.

    Writing is to the point but the world is pretty interesting and it's paced great. Scenes are good, needs gay tag on this site I think but idc personally.

    Pretty awesome looking game, great for fun vampire stuff if you're into that. It's got a cool vibe/ambience to it.
