Yes! The end of Act 2 will give players the option to enter a relationship with one of the main characters (two in the case of CJ). Act 3 will allow you to stay faithful to your partner, cheat/fool around, or even build towards a potential harem ending.
But the crucial question is, will cheating/fooling around be something that negatively impacts your relationship with your partner in game, or will the only real consequence be your own conscience?

Like, if you're caught sleeping around by your partner, do they get pissy and/or leave you? Or do you pretty much get to (wo)manwhore your way through town and your partner either remains blissfully ignorant or is just cool with it?


I try to aim for a 50/50 split between straight and lesbian sex scenes, since there are some players who only enjoy the lesbian content.
Speaking as one of the players who is 100% going the lesbian route (my main character hasn't even seen a dick so far), it's appreciated.

Good question. I think it's important for there to be some encounters that your partner can find out about, in order for the cheating to feel real and consequential. The reaction to them finding out would also depend on the character. For example, someone like Violet might be accepting, but Haruka wouldn't be very happy if she found out.

This is something I'll have to consider in greater detail, since it largely depends on player feedback.

I'd argue that having major consequences might be more interesting from a story perspective, but some players might be annoyed by it from a gameplay perspective, if they feel like they should be able to play the field without consequences, and that limiting yourself to being loyal to a single partner is essentially cutting them out of game content. Whereas players who focus more on the story might like being asked to choose (and will thus probably start keeping multiple saves for multiple runs).

That being said, I feel like the most important question is how easy or difficult it is to handle mechanically. Having characters react to other relationships will complicate how you as dev have to handle variables behind the scenes, so it might make things a bit too complex and confusing to juggle (and could increase the complexity of writing because you need to handle more variations of individual scenes based on prior choices). Ultimately you should probably go with whatever feels easier and more comfortable for you on the coding/writing/rendering end, rather than potentially trying to do too much and getting overwhelmed.

What's up with the woman at the waterpark in chapter 10, i feel like hanging out with her is on a trigger but nothing i tried could activate it, neither lesbian mode on or off nor who of the 3 girls i chose as the first-fuck. Is she just some random or did i miss something? The guide doesn't provide any clues.

You can choose any of the girls or none, after a bit (Chapter 11) you have this choice

That has nothing to do with who i was talking about. The MC goes to the waterpark with Luna in chapter 10, whilst there a random woman interrupts them, saying her friend left and asks if she can hang out with them, the MC considers it but then says no and the scene quickly ends, similarly to other places on the lesbian route where straight content would play but is autoskipped. I want to know what i did/didn't do to cause that woman to be autodeclined, nothing i tried worked and the guide offered nothing involving her.

She shows up again in Chapter 12 if you have the Lesbian mod on.
Auto declined is just a part of the plot, you didn't do anything wrong, in that same scene without the lesbian mod, a dude shows up, and she refuses him, but he will show again in chapter 12, she rejects them because she is not alone, when she is alone you have a choice in chapter 12 to have fun with her.

Interesting.

I'm not playing lesbian mode, and I got the scene with the guy (and turned him down).

I didn't know that lesbian mode would literally replace certain male scenes with female scenes, I just assumed it was only auto-skipping male ones.

question, Josh and Connor will always be a package deal? Can't be with just 1 of them?
There's a number of non-penetrative scenes (oral, handjob, footjob, etc.) in the game involving just one of them. Regarding one-on-one vaginal or anal sex, this will be coming in the near future, along with more (optional) threesome content.

In terms of a relationship, I'm considering additional options to choose just one of them. This way players can pick their favourite of the two, or go the double-boyfriend route, depending on their preference.

So, I've finished the update and thought I'd share my thoughts:
Thanks for the detailed feedback, and sorry to hear you didn't enjoy it.

I'll be expanding the CJ and Violet scenes for the next release, with extra renders and dialogue addressing the lack of teasing prior to sex. I will keep this in mind for future chapters as well.

In terms of exhibitionism, there are big plans for the next few chapters, with scenes such as strip poker, park nudism (with company), public sex and more.

Oh i quite like the lesbian content in this game. I didn't use the toggle in the ingame menu but it was nice to see that i could make Rita only go for the women in the game, even if at times the dialogue made me feel like she is still a bit "in the closet" about her sexuality.

So how much of this games content is optional? I'm not opposed to playing as a female MC but I would prefer to go a lesbian route. It just sits better with me as a male player.
