Okay am I crazy or what?
It's day 13, I've done 2 quests, one is talking to the old man and the other was getting the laptop, is there some way to use the laptop? Is there anything else to do? Like... what am i missing here?

You might be crazy, how could I know? :p
If you're playing the latest version, you've seen a sign telling you you've seen all content. If you've talked to Larry, and had your second conversation with Stanley, an event should have automatically triggered right when you left the attic, involving the sisters. The "game end" sign appears at the end of this event.

I definitely see the potential in this game. @Misarmmorhow is the development going? When can we expect more?

Development is going pretty good. I'm in the middle of renders right now, meaning I'm done with making all the management systems I needed to make for 0.3.
After I'm done with the renders, I'll send the texts to Lyk for proofreading and I can implement the events and the systems and the music/sounds. After that the challenge is to make everything work together smoothly.
All in all I'd say you can expect 0.3 to come out during August, but issues can always arise.

Quite big.
The whole part of the management system that was originally supposed to come out for 0.2 will be implemented, that is: the cooking/errands system, with the cooking screen, the errands screen/system, the fridge screen... Then the night summary has been re-implemented and extended, the job system (only for the main character currently) was added, an alarm clock has been implemented, gameovers, the weather/temperature system was reworked, a whole minigame (although quite simple) and on top of that a few events will be added, some to extend the main story/quest, some to flesh out the interactions that were present in 0.2 (Angelina's movie night, breakfast with the sisters...).

Then on top of that I'll add some missing sound for the menus, some QoL additions, and I'll see to populate the house throughout the day a bit more, although I don't expect I'll add a ton of content on that end just yet.
I think that's it. Although I'm sure I've missed a few details.

Super excited to see where it goes. I also subscribed recently. Thanks for the info.

All this is certainly wonderful, only there is one "but" - you are creating a PORN game and it seems that you completely forgot about sex content. It is hot scenes that should be the foundation on which the game is built, and not boring and little-needed "gameplay mechanics", "plot" and similar secondary nonsense. Yes, I'm not arguing, you did a great job on the next update, only the vast majority of players (like me) will not notice it at all, it would be better if you spent this time studying the software to add animations to your game. Of course, the donation fees of the game are very small (especially when compared with some other projects) and I think that in order to increase them, players need to be given something for which they play such games, and not under-SIMS or under-RPG, which are not worth spending time and money on. In general, do not consider this as some kind of insult, but rather as a criticism of the wrong path of development. ;)

I wish you success and hope that in the near future I will be able to play an excellent game with a bunch of cool X-content, and your project will gain popularity and subscribers. :)

To this I have 3 things to say:

First, the fact that there are so many management elements coming in 0.3 should come as no surprise, as those were on the "postponed" list in 0.2's changelog, and I believe I also talked about the fact that there would be a second batch of management elements coming in 0.3 before.

Second, unlike porn content, when management systems are implemented, they're implemented. They're a one-time thing. All I have to do next is build (porn) content using them, and that's it, whereas porn content comes update after update.

Third, the post you quoted is an answer I made detailing the things I worked on that took me the most time, to explain how big the update was in terms of work. I'm sure you've noticed that I said that "a few events will be added"? Most of those events are either hot scenes, or events that will lead to hot scenes in the future. Even the minigame I listed is like an interactive hot scene. I took the time to make those, even though my workload for 0.3 was huge, to quench the player's thirst a little bit :LOL:.

I would agree that my donations count being what it is is probably due to the lack of hot content in 0.2 for the most part. Although I would also think that it's also due to 0.2 not being a satisfactory demo for gameplay mechanics too, at least for a small part.

I didn't have the event automatically trigger when leaving the attic after the second conversation with Stanley. I'm also seeing strange text up in the corner of the screen that shows things like "False noon_home_livingroom False". Should that be happening?
