I was wondering also, will there be a sorta discount for people who have purchase Loran plus the expanion or just Loran?

I would pay extra for Manuel and Thomas to be datable. To be honest, none of the romancible guys actually catch my attention. The GxG seems the most attractive option to me atm.

Thomas not for sure since I don't do and will never do "shota". I think the other boys are fine, but we'll see since there's still time before the game is out.

Manuel would be nice to have, but so would Lynn . But like you said, there is still time before the game comes out, so plenty of time to think on it and decide what is best for the flow of the game.

As a Bi-Girl, I want to say on the first sketch and the later images, that not only is skin more than okay, it's sexy to see the clothes slowly come off and the barriers of clothing lessen.

To go from the cute reserved apprentice to the sexy and confident woman who knows what she wants, and knows she's hot, is a beautiful thing!

I am totally going to be buying this game the moment the Yuri expansion comes out, as none of the men do it for me- the noses are cute on girls but weird on boys.

And as to the boy character- he could be an option for after he's an adult in the second half, maybe?

You make a good point there.

As for the men, i'm not straight either, but I think Manuel is pretty cute, though he and the others in the second cast image can't romance-able.

The initial suggestion to cover more Amber was made because initially this was supposed to be an otome game, or "mostly and otome game". There was only Ruby as yuri option. To be honest I don't know if I'll be able to add more. It's complicated, some games started the production even 1-2 YEARS ago, and lots of things can happen, like writers or artist/colorists that leave, and so on. Believe me is really hard to make a game exactly as you have imagined in the beginning
So be sure that I listen to all suggestions and I try to please my public but sometimes is hard or just not possible

I understand you're doing all you can, it's obvious how much you listen to suggestions and the like from people, so don't take it too hard when we sometimes wish for the impossible

Though, you really do need to find a way to keep all those artists and writers from disappearing on you!

It's a very common problem, some other indie friends had to redo all the art from scratch for some games, because the artist(s) stopped working/disappeared at 70-80% of the job. While for backgrounds different styles is acceptable, for characters / CG art it is really better if is the same. Since I used the same artist as Loren to do Amber sprites, and he is currently busy doing Loren 2 art, I want first to be sure that he finishes all the art for Loren 2 before "distracting" him with new stuff for Amber, since for sure Loren 2 has the priority!

Smart move! And as I said, it'd be fine to wait for, and pay extra for, the yuri expansion, so please don't worry!
I'm just really looking forward to an Alchemist game in english! Silver Chaos or whatever the Boy Apprentice version of this idea was a few years ago, looked adorable but I don't speak Japanese... ^^;

I really appreciate the time and effort you put into these games- so please don't worry or rush!

No I'm taking it easier with the next titles, I want to put more care in them
