game is quite good tbh, but somewhat of a hint system could be usefull in knowing wat to do in the free roam part.

i don't think i've finished everything yet as i still have some of the achievement cards to unlock, but so far i can't seem to progress at all.

- the maid costume is going to be ordered (at least i gave them money for it)
- i've talked to the landlady about sleeping over at the roommate's room (she needs time to think about it) and i think i've asked to help with the chores
- peeking in the bathroom keeps telling me i need to find something to keep the door open
- unable to actually go shopping

are these the end of these parts of the story?

Its just like those every other visual games here but without grinding

The start was like a real visual novel then after the intro now i have to the browse for room/characters to trigger dialogues./storyline which waste your time adding those repeatable scene

the story come on you should find some erotic stories online and recreate it for your game its not very good

Agree. I'm kinda lost aswell.
A walkthrough or a hint system would be very helpful in my opinion.

Saw that I didnt finished this ... and then I got it why. Its just this pointless free roam. Ads nothing to the game - you just search for a trigger ... without the forum I would never found that thing with the remote ... bc why should I use the TV again? And then the "story" derails completely. Whats the point of that Splinter Cell dialog? Some sort of meta humor stuff? I never played one of the games ... I have no idea what they are talking about and I bet it has nothing to do with this game. Its just bla bla for a "+1 sneaky stuff" ... yeay .. *bluargh*

The problem is that to many devs try to create some sort of point & click adventure game, but that is really hard genre and you can fail so easy. When you dont have a good story and/or likable characters the game will suffer because the mechanics are hard to get right. There are only a few really good games in that genre and a lot of devs failed in the past. And even some of the good ones where unpleasant without some kind of walkthrough.

There is so much empty time where you have to skip time but you have to go to your room most of the time ... so many clicks ... And the worst is, the game would be the same a pure VN ... bc it is linear as fuck.

Hey there is more story content in this update? I can just walk over home and talk with girls. I load 0.14 save its that wahy i cant do more?
If you have read the Changelog (OP) you would now that Old Saves do not work
AND YES: A HINT SYSTEM or WALKTHROUGH would be nice!
But for the Version 0.15 I have a question: after fixing the PC and learning how to Sneak ( Late Night meeting with S.C.) I can only Sneak in one Room, Mia´s or Landladys, but not both. Why is this so?

OK I seem to be going around in circles. Can't leave the house (changed clothes and checked at different times). Nothing new seems to be triggering (watched porn in the evening but no new interactions) and the only thing I can do on the laptop is view pictures/scenes and check on the different women. How do you go about getting the maid costume people have mentioned?

No posts on the devs patreon since June the 10th either doesn't look very promising. :(
