I just got to know your game, I really liked the art, the premise, and the care you are putting into the project, so I am looking forward to it.
Netorare comes from Netoru (寝 = sleep, 取る = "to take/steal"), it basically means that someone you love has been stolen from you while you were unaware or "sleeping", so I hope there's a way to avoid watching the H-scenes so that we don't really see what's happening to her until the male MC discovers it himself. I especially enjoy the tension and suspense of the clues, the changes in behavior, the lies, the neglect, strange calls, shadows, the cracking voice, watching the agony and doubt building up inside the male MC while he starts losing her bit by bit.
Thanks so much for your kind words. It really means a lot to me. :D
I thought netorare meant to steal someone's partner by bedding with them. At least, that's what the above picture says.
That being said, the unaware aspect is very much a factor in my game. If you pick the wrong choices, Akari can be forced into… certain acts without Rei's knowledge. Now, there is the question of audience omniscience.
Some users really like having the knowledge of what both characters are doing. Others prefer to see the POV of one actor only. The thing is, both Akari and Rei's choices affect each other. This isn't a game purely told from the male protagonist's perspective. It's a duo-protagonist NTR, though I think many will self-insert into Rei's perspective given the general audience. :3
If you, playing as Akari, choose not to follow that ugly bastard into a dark alley, then Rei won't have the scene where Akari's not answering his calls. It's totally possible for Rei to be kept in the dark about Akari's doings. That being said you, the reader, would know what's happening (since you made that choice for Akari).
Hope that clarifies things! :D
