Thanks for the feedback guys!
Lumen_Astrum:
Glad you liked it, that was one of my favorite scenes to write for the demo. I'm sure anyone looking at all the photos I took for it would think I was crazy though.
DaR: Jeff is probably the most referencetastic character next to Mike herself, so it's good that you found it entertaining.
Another Douglas fan, huh? So far I've seen something of a gender split on Douglas, girls like him and guys think he's a jerk. XD
NatsukiDeath: I'm happy somebody likes Mike, she's as much of a character as anyone else! I definitely tried to convey movement as much as I could with having ~3 static poses per character.
Kyminara and Ris: Thanks! It's a good sign when there are people who can't decide on a favorite.
As for the Bee Eff Effs thing, that was my lame attempt at transmitting sarcasm over a text medium, as BFFs is the kind of term that Mike would never use in all seriousness. Ris has the pronunciation of tl;dr down-pat.
The funny thing about the art is that when my housemate was looking over my shoulder as I was drawing sprites they told me their heads were too big. I can't win!
Ririruetoo: You might well have to play it over 9000 times to get all the paths and endings!
I already have a 100% completion bonus in mind.
Snow Blossom: Duly fixed! Hope you enjoyed the demo.
Dollywitch: Mike's not the most incredibly-endowed girl in the world, so her... chest placement reflects this. There are indeed going to be a fair number of choices, but they mainly concern who to sit with at lunch/where to go after school, which once you know who's where is pretty straightforward. There was something of a hint as to where Kurt would be (he mentioned track in his text message), but for the most part yeah, you pretty much know what Mike knows in regards to where people might be. I might fix it so that going to the classroom doesn't send you straight home afterwards, though.
The amount of net-speak you'll end up seeing depends somewhat on whose route you end up going down, but it probably won't be a constant stream. As in life, some geeks are referential to the point that they could be seen as obnoxious, and whether or not that's the case is up to personal preference. If someone does find it completely grating then this is probably not the game for them.
PMed you in response to the composer thing.
Applegate: The lack of punctuation is a stylistic choice, I swear. I always read dialogue in my head, so a few missing commas here and there reflect the pace of the speech.
According to my poll of both this and random people I ambushed to play this game, this is how the character rankings currently stand:
1. Jeff (12 votes)
2. Greg (11 votes)
3. Matthew and Mike (tied at 5 votes each)
4. Douglas (4 votes)
5. Kurt (2 votes)
6. Ray (1 vote)
Goddamn Jeff why are you so lovable
