The bad news is that I won't be able to let player choose gender in the game. It would require too much investment (just think about all the romance subplots and CG that would need to be done x2!).
The good news is that I will be very likely able to release an add on / sequel (I like the name "Ace's Revenge") in which you'll be able to control Ace and date some of the characters that you couldn't in the first episode.
Check the flow chart below, this is how I'm planning to do it, you can see all the possible romances in the game. In practice 2 hetero and 2 homo romance for each good/evil main character!

UPDATE:
Had to change slightly the romances for gameplay reasons, so there will be 1 less hetero option, and you won't be able to do "cross-alignment" romance (evil and good). You'll be able to change between good/evil Lily, but the other team members won't change alignment (I realized would be an insane amount of work to check all possible combinations).
Still there are 10 scenes for each romance, so: 10 scenes x 5 dateable heroes x 2 alignments = 100 romance scenes!!! this game will have the biggest romance subplots of all the one I've done so far!
