Sean
Your Character first has a vision of Sean trying to help him/her in a dream. The college student then bumps into him after he/she wakes up. He later defends Your Character when Craig and Michelle are ganging up on you. If Your Character gets mad at both, Sean and Jake, for arguing over who should be in charge, Sean starts to like him/her (if you don't used diamond choices involving him). If you choose to get in the boat with him and Jake at chapter 11, you'll be able to choose to kiss him or hug him at chapter 12. At chapter 11, he can (if you choose so) also rub sunscreen on you.

Craig
For unknown reasons, Craig currently doesn't like Your Character. He gets mad at the college student for not knowing who Sean is even though he is the star quarterback of their college's football team. If Your Character agrees with Grace that the hotel being deserted is creepy, he dislikes you even more. If he/she goes to the pool party, he starts to warm up to the college student and starts chanting his/her name.

Michelle
Michelle instantly acts snobby and rude towards Your Character even though she doesn't know him/her. She assumes the college student is talking to her ex-boyfriend Sean because he/she is desperate to become popular. Your Character can either chose to compliment her and make her like him/her, or insult her back and make her dislike him/her. This impacts the way she acts towards Your Character in future chapters, either acting polite or continuing to make rude comments.

Jake
Jake originally finds Your Character annoying and calls the college student "Boy Scout" or "Princess", depending on gender. He shows concern for Your Character several times during life or death situations. If you choose to get in the boat with him and Sean at chapter 11, you'll be able to choose to kiss him or hug him at chapter 12. At chapter 11, he can (if you choose so) also rub sunscreen on you.

Quinn
Your Character can choose to comfort Quinn during the plane ride when they are flying through a storm. After this, she will ask him/her to undo the last button on her blouse. If Your Character goes to the beach with her, Raj, Craig, and Michelle, she will start to like him/her. It is likely she has a crush on Your Character. The college student has the option to kiss her in Chapter 3 if they check out the waterfall with together. If the player decides to cook Raj's feast with her in Chapter 7, he/she will have the option to kiss her again which leads to making out. In Chapter 8, when the group is about to leave, if the player decides to tell her that they will stay in touch, she becomes overjoyed.

Raj
Raj originally likes Your Character. If the college student snaps at him for making jokes about his/her encounter with the creature, he stops liking Your Character. When you help him by getting alcohol for his feast, he starts to like you again.

Grace
In the beginning, Grace feels neutral about Your Character. If he/she tell her he/she trusts her to keep the tooth she found by the pool a secret until she is ready to tell group, she starts to like Your Character.

Zahra
Zahra originally doesn't like Your Character, but if he/she goes to the pool party, she starts to warm up to the college student and chants his/her name with Raj and Craig. If you tell her to look out when the crab is behind her, she will feel neutral or better about Your Character.

Estela
Your Character appears to save some sort of link with Estela. This first occurs in Chapter 1 when they lock eyes on the airstrip and the college student can't break the gaze. If Your Character chooses to stargaze with Estela, she will admit she thinks that you're a nice and honest person. She also admits that the people around her get hurt and she doesn't want you to get hurt. After she ventures into the Jungle and hasn't returned for two days, Your Character feels concerned and nervous that something happened to her. They have a dream of Estela being dragged away by vines telling the college student to find her. In Chapter 9, it is implied that she has a crush on Your Character when she tells you about a possibly romantic dream she had about her and you.

Aleister
Aleister originally states that Your Character, and many others, are idiots and simpletons. In chapter 4, if he/she sprays the chain to the release valve with the gas from the fire extinguisher to brittle the metal, instead of bashing it, the college student impresses him and he states Your Character isn't as dumb as he originally thought. In chapter 13, when you find out that he is a Rourke International Asset, Your Character can choose to call him a liar and that you don't trust him or be nice to him and give a chance to explain.
