Personally, I'm with the other anons who were a bit thrown by the 'and romance' aspect of this game.

I can see you have stated it is meant to be a shipping game, but that aspect seems... not to fit? It seems added on, not properly integrated into the plot. An after thought. Like the world was all built then you got some super glue and added 'also intimacy to level up'.

You might want to see if you can interweave it a little better, or see if you can make it seem more natural.
