Update 0.5.2 out now.


Change notes:

  • A message from Macy and Denise.
    Find this short scene right after the end of chapter 4.
    View attachment 663887
  • Hotkeys for choice menus. If you're on PC, Linux or Mac, you can use the number keys to select a menu option instead of having to use the mouse. Now you can have that other hand free to hold a nice, refreshing beverage!
    The option can be disabled from preferences if you hate seeing little numbers in front of your menu options.

  • See your current relationship levels for characters you've met with a relationship stat. Available from the preference screen, under relationships.

  • A final batch of small fixes for typos and minor graphical glitches.
Yay Macy and Denise love my main character 10 out of 10 now. :D

I haven't played the game but the characters look a little bit off. What's their ethinicity supposed to be?
There's a porn app the MC uses that references middle-eastern, Asian, Latina, and Indo-Iranian ethnicities, so I think that's a tip off both as to the writer's preferences and to what the characters are supposed to be.

It seems clear to me, based both on facial features and on in-game elements (like the trip to the museum, story of lot, the diet she puts them on and her vegetarianism, etc.), that they're probably intended to be of broadly Persian ethnicity (Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran, north India), rather than Arabian-North African (Arabian peninsula, Egypt, Libya), although the latter is also very possible. If this is not your thing I understand, but I can promise that if you allow yourself to get into the story you'll get past that, and the intimate scenes (models and writing and anim) are hot as fuck.

This is one of the sweetest, funniest, most poignant, most sophisticated, and most charming porn games/stories I've ever seen. The concept and backstory and how that's handled is one of the best I've seen. It's rare to see a porn game that actually has any sort of spiritual depth or which provides insight into how people actually understand their own relationships and what's important to them in it, and this has that more than any other. Picture Acting Lessons, Haley, etc. and you start to get the idea, but don't really quite approach what's happening here. These are people struggling with a loss, failing to deal with, but desperately trying to find a way to do so.

I can't stand the idea of incest, so I had to flag the characters as step-daughters (since nothing more distant made any sense with the story). It's a shame then that it so often tends to be mostly incest games that handle these themes of loss, longing, and relationship depth so well. I suspect that they appeal to people not so much who fetishize the breaking of this taboo but who just have a dearth of familial love or have experienced loss of family just like this, either through divorce or death or what have you. In fact I can practically guarantee this in light of the fact that the MC in these types of games so often tends to be a divorcee or widow (DMD, DFD, TFMG, etc.), although in other cases it's the loss of a father or a distant father or family (FF, WTHI, DOD, MC, PL, etc.). There's a whole lot of Oedipal and Electran things going on in these games that I don't have room to get into, but this one handles those issues in one of the most sophisticated, sensitive, direct, and understanding ways possible.

I think most of us will agree that the models in this game are not typical, the reality is that in real life most people are not super models in terms of physical appearance so why not have games that mimic more realistic apperances.
Macy is hot as fuck, and Denise is a cutie too ... that backside just won't quit. And anyone into petite will probably love this game too.

It annoys me at how many people complain on this thread :mad: Considering the whole point of VN's is to read but they can't even bother to read descriptions etc about the game? Fair enough give some constructive criticism if you feel it's needed but to come and just say stupid brain dead, childish remarks then just move on, it's fucking simple.This is a great story with so much depth within it and beautiful characters and I just love it. Sorry for the rant lol.

I think naughtyroad left the ethnicity of the girls deliberately ambiguous, so every player can give it its own interpretation. To me the mom gave off major Lacey Chabert (part Cajun) vibes. However I live in a city that has one of the most diverse ethnic make-ups in the Netherlands (I believe 55% of Rotterdam belongs to one ethnic minority or another) and I can easily see the girls belonging to one of those groups as well. My upstairs neighbours are Bulgarian, and share some similarities. A girl from work is Israeli jewish, and shares a lot of traits with Macy. I know Turkish (Middle Eastern) and Moroccan girls (North African) who look like the girls as well. Maybe even Spanish, Italian or Latin?

I may be wrong, and thinking of another game, but I was sure that I saw Macy use the word Puta a couple of times, and if I am correct then I would say more Latin or South American. I could be wrong and thinking of another game.

what kind of update is this? is the dev joking with us?
Always read the changelog before commenting. It clearly states what was added (in this case, no new real content).

Also check the version number: Ch.4 v0.5.2

The next major update will be v0.6

If the update has a second decimal, chances are it contains bug fixes or narrative corrections, not new content.
