Emily: Between Shame and Desire (v0.01) by Manticore Studio

Description
Description:
Emily has left her quiet life behind. A new apartment, a new university, new friends, and a city full of temptation are waiting for her. She wants to study, settle in, and keep control of her life, but the city keeps pushing her out of her comfort zone.
In Emily: Between Shame and Desire, you guide Emily through the first steps of her new life. Your choices influence her confidence, her boundaries, her relationships, and the way she responds to the world around her. Will she stay careful and reserved? Become bolder and more dominant? Let others guide her? Or lean into temptation faster than anyone expected?
There are no wrong choices, only different versions of Emily.

Developer Notes:
This is the first public build of Emily: Between Shame and Desire and our first game as Manticore Studio.
The current version is mainly an introduction to Emily, her new city life, her friend - Sara, university, and the first choices that begin shaping her personality. At this stage, the game is mostly linear, with several choices that represent different directions for Emily's future development.
The current build includes the opening chapter, character introductions, early personality choices, beach/university/cheerleading scenes, gallery/replay features, and the first setup for future story paths.
Future updates are planned to expand the game with more freedom, additional locations, relationship routes, repeatable events, and more choice-based adult content. These systems are not fully implemented in the current build yet.
We are a small team working on the game after hours, so feedback, bug reports, and suggestions are very welcome.
