Interesting game, it has an mod editor, you can easily make ur own mods. , also there is an .
The link doesn't work for me. Can you upload it on another site, like Nopy or MEGA? Also, there's someone who knows where to find the mods already created by the community? Thanks in advance.

looking this game for a very long time, and iirc got the v18 from somebody who is asking to another somebody about this game which I yoink'd it away. so thanks for actually uploading and making thread for this game.

I'm all in for the 'no sexual content' tags but new forum or site for a tag? I think that's a bit too much.

I mean, I see some of non sexual content Visual Novels around here and I dont mind about that. makes things easier to look around. if you catch my drift.

Well regardless of the content, I was still interesting in trying out this game at some point. Now it looks like I'll get my chance. Thanks, OP.

As a side note, why dont we mod the shit out of this and add some adult content if that's such a problem? Make an f95zone edition of Idol Manager. I think the game's structure could have some potential if we wanted to make a brothel simulator or something, just tweak images and rename stats. idk, whatevs.
Yeah! That's what I thought. And honestly that's probably the main intention of the uploader that uploaded it. It has some great potential, because it's so easily modable.

Also, yes this game needs a tutorial. You guys are no backers, but the devs said they are working on it. They wanted to have a tutorial ready for this version already, but they ran into some problems, so they'll add it in one of the next updates.

Also please be aware, that this version of the game is supposed to be a closed beta. It's still in the making and not finished at all. Unlike other developers I feel like these guys are trying to develop a base for their game first and THEN fill it with miscellaneous content and not the other way round (as you can see in many games these days, especially on this site.)

Also I'm not sure how far they wanna go in regards to NSFW content, but they did say this is something they might wanna add in the end. The "enable R18 content" button on the other hand is pretty much useless at this point. I think it's like max. one or two softporn scenes, that you enable with it so far, I'm confident this will be more in the future tho.

Since it's a beta i think there'll be sexual content later using the NSFW options, also there's choices like Lewd PV for Advertising, and all the policies for dating, streaming, etc. But again, since it's only a beta, there's a lot of events missing, in almost 6 hours playing i only saw 2 events with my idols, one where some fans dig her old social accounts shaming a product and another one where one of them complains about the single didn't reach the top charts

the game does have sex scenes, but they seem to be angled so that you never actually see the sexy bits (also, gay is possible if you and your rival are both male)

THERE'S THE INFO I WAS SEARCHING UP AND DOWN THE THREAD FOR :love: (but if I can only top I'm gtfo until/unless a mod for that and or more men in general pops up.)

I wouldn't call the game deep, but it's surprisingly addictive; the same sort of "just one more round" feeling you get from Civilization. And it's a pretty good foundation for a game still in beta; once it's populated with more events for the idols, it won't really matter that the core gameplay loop is a bit on the shallow side.

One thing the tutorial should address, though, is clarifying some of these numbers a bit more; what does it mean when your single has a choreography of 40 and a marketing of 15? Like, obviously higher is better, but what does that translate to in terms of sales? Does that matter more or less than being able to get an extra percent of female fans by choosing a vocal coach over a recording specialist? And just how do these fandom demographics break down, exactly? Am I better off on focusing on adult fans or female fans, or is each category the same? Does it matter if I scatter my support across everyone so long as the total percent is higher, or am I better off heavily focusing on a single demographic? Do singing and dancing skills actually matter in a performance, or is it really just the boost it gives to certain demographics? The game doesn't have to hold my hand the entire way, but I do at least need a handy tooltip to explain what these things mean in the context of the game so that I understand the decisions I'm making.

This game does give me the feeling that I'm not a very good businesswoman, though. Like, I can clearly tell from my expense breakdown that my best option is to fire my first generation idols now that fame has made their salaries explode far past their actual competence, as well as their compatibility being iffy and "annoying" being a flatly bad trait, but... Well, darn it, I just can't bring myself to have The Talk. I have their more-competent replacements right there, and even hired proper trainers for them, but I keep finding excuses not to let the originals go.

Well, my cashflow is still positive, so I guess I can keep them on for a couple more months still. But if they get another star, that's it, they're out the door!

You have to build every required room, employ stuff, learn every category (which is locked at first), and then you're allowed to produce a single. Or so I was told anyway. Personally I was immensely disappointed with the amount of grind you have to suffer through. And also you can't lewd lolis that was a major deal breaker. And I'm not even into lolis. Simply put, every bit of realism is gone. Basically you should start grinding stats from the beginning. You wait cooldown, you micromanage, you grind, then you fight RANDOM, start all over. Honestly it's no good, you can't even lewd lolis (and I think lewding is maximally complicated in general). I'm not sure why this kid game is here, while other MATURE CONTENT games are not allowed.

Can i get a confirmation or rough confirmation on my thinking from anyone or everyone?

I search NTR on this thread and read every post, so is it right for me to think that this game has all 3 Neto genres:
- Netorare (your girl/woman gets stolen from you)
- Netori (you steal other peoples girl/woman)
- Netorase (you insists your girl/woman sleep with others, you are in full control mostly)

or not all?

And there is a GAY tag, so does that mean one or more of the Idol is/are male? Like that manga AKB49: Renai Kinshi Jourei.
