The project is due in a few days and we are adding some final touches. Just to note though, the other 3 group members who did the writing and art are not familiar with VNs in general. So it may come off amateurish compared to quality fictional VN games. (I got a lot of flack and downvotes from Reddit because they were expecting something amazing for only 3 weeks of work on this game)
About
Created in TyranoBuilder, Dangerous Dating features 3 short stories that showcase some common problems in different relationships. We were going to just focus on 1 story but realized it would be better to include LGBT common issues as well.
- The first scenario features a naive 16-year-old girl going on her first date. The guy is kind of a jerk, but is he that bad?
- The second is about a gay couple that's already been together for a short while, few months at least. There seems to be a bit of tension about how your date thinks of you.
- The third is a very frequent issue in lesbian relationships. Your girlfriend aggressively threatens you for thinking that you were cheating when you know you did nothing. But you learn that the police and institutions don't take lesbian relationships seriously because of the stereotype that only men are abusive.

Feedback!
What did you like about it? What did you hate?
Did you find typos or grammar problems?
Is there anything that you'd change if you were us with just a few days till the final version was due?
Did you find this educational on teen dating violence and emotionally abusive relationships?
Last but not least, if we decide to further this project, how could we take this to the next level? In other words, do you think it's worth making more scenarios showcasing other problems in other types of abuse? Or would you recommend something different?
We'd like to hear anything! Thanks! And I hope you enjoy it!
