Hello, your in-game Quest should update and tell you where to go next. It should say to go to the pub on Tuesday or Thursday in the Afternoon. Does it say that for you?

Yeah they are just sitting there but no action can be taken. Probably it will be updated later, is my guess.

ODD! I think you guys might have found a pretty huge bug! In my playtesting the questline worked perfectly fine but on a fresh save it's bugged for me now too. That sucks as that questline in particular I put a lot of work into and it's really good!
I'll do some troubleshooting tomorrow and figure out what is going on.
I'm upset though as I am half through my v0.3 update and it might not be easy to shoot up a quick hotfix at this stage...
Thank you very much for reporting! If I can't hotfix it it'll be fixed by the next update for sure. Thank you for your patience!

Good luck! I've never made a game, but making an RPGM sandbox with loads of characters and events and 5 different times of day sounds like some complicated shit.
Haha it can be pretty obnoxious when playtesting that's for sure lol! I'm just trying to make the type of game I'd like to see more of. I'm taking my time with the next update so I don't feel rushed during the final days of playtesting and can catch these annoying bugs. The wait won't be crazy long though.
Thank you for checking it out!

I encountered two inconveniences.
1. Every time I'm outside, the game slows down. Every time I'm inside my house/school, it's normal. (Win 10/ i5-8250 / 16gb / gforce mx210)
2. I can't start the park quest. The blonde and her friend are sitting there, but nothing happens.
I also wanted to know if the dev allows me to make a critique or a different vision for the game.

Hello!
1. I'm going to be working on optimization a bit more for the next update. I didn't realize how intense the special effects would be in a RPG Maker game haha I have a fairly new top of the line gaming PC so I didn't even notice any FPS drops but it's clearly an issue that needs to be addressed as its one of the main points of feedback currently. Hopefully it will help, especially for when I eventually make an Android port.
2. Yeah... Known bug. The switch for the quest was in the wrong order in the code for it to activate properly... It's already fixed for the next version.. I somehow missed it in my playtesting. I'm taking more time for this update to polish everything up more so hopefully that doesn't happen again. Sorry about that!
I'm always open for feedback and content suggestions! Please feel free to share any of your thoughts with me.

My criticism is about the time management; it ends up being very repetitive and leaves few choices to make.
For example: I take my girlfriend to school, then I have to pick her up from school, or go to work, and then immediately go to sleep.
It would be easier if it were a day/night cycle: complete all the daytime quests, go home for a nap, do the nighttime quests, and then go to sleep.
Another very repetitive thing is the Black guy who bullies and sleeps with the girlfriend... Why not something more like a couple's adventure? Go to the park, a glory hole happens in the park bathroom / he falls asleep on the bench with her, a stranger comes and gropes her.
Go to the cinema with her, discover it's porn movie day and it's full of perverts.
Go to the forest to have sex, and there is someone watching.
Put more boys in the class and do something with the school too: a school party, a birthday party at someone from school's house, 5-minute inside closet, truth or dare.
There are so many differentiated things you can do with a school theme and open-world setting that sticking to the same old NTR from other games ends up being a bore... You can get a lot of potential out of your game."

I'm against forcing a developer to add more antagonists to any story, simply because it completely diminishes the psychological impact of a girl getting caught up in a situation where she ends up cheating or doing things she wasn't so open about at first with a guy she's starting to trust or spend more time with. Adding more antagonists, especially on the first stages, would make the game so simple that it would lose its value. So, please, dev, don't fall for the demands of those who try to make you change your story to something you weren't thinking about.
Real stories are born from originality. If you start doing what most games do —corrupting a relationship without psychological plots— the story will feel very simple and hollow. I fully support devs originality, so I never try to force what I want a story to be, like "Hey, developer, add more characters" or "Hey, developer, remove some characters". Following advices is fine, but it's not mandatory, especially if it jeopardizes the originality of a story.

First of all, thank you very much for your interest in the game! I do share some of your ideas already actually! No spoilers though haha
The game is still very in it's early days so hearing ideas and feedback is fantastic! The story for the most part is already planned out in its near entirety. I have a set focus and vision that I want to try and stick too.
I hope you'll come back and check out v0.3 when it's ready! I have a feeling you'll be happy with it.

Great advice! Not to worry though, the game for the most part is already completely planned out. All events and characters are all written and planned for future releases.
Feedback I do take with immediate consideration is character design, performance issues and easy to change gameplay fixes.
This is still my very first project and I'm still learning lots as well, it's definitely a tad ambitious for a first project but it helps to keep a focus on what I want the game to be haha
Thank you again for the kind words!

You misinterpreted everything. I'm not looking for an antagonist; yourselves believe in antagonists. Can't it be ordinary people who show up and never come back? I'm asking for isolated things, not antagonists. And another thing: naturally, she's going to do everything with the black guy. I'm not asking her to go around doing everything with everyone.
I prefer slowburn, I'm just saying to gradually add events here and there
At the moment the school seems empty, it would be good to have more students sitting in classes, even if without speeches and one or another having presentations and then in the future you can put on events, like a birthday at his house, I don't want antagonists

I understand you better now. I joined the conversation because I've seen other developers bombarded with requests that, in the end, are just personal preferences, but that can end up affecting the dev's originality, rush things on the story or makes it a bit forced. So I always prefer to let the dev cook, and if they do something I don't like, well, that's part of the originality... and it can be something unexpected too so that might be good. Finally, I completely agree with you that giving a developer examples of situations can be good for expanding their repertoire and can also help energize the story.

The first gym memory would just loop without an option to exit for me, so I had to close the game.
Thank you! Working on the next update now !
won't be to much longer. The gym scene is a known bug, it's fixed for the next update. You'll likely have to start a new save to fix it. I'll be including a save in the files for those that this big affected. The blackjack bug is a new one to me though. When during the blackjack game did you encounter the error? Like at what point during the game?
Thank you!
Unfortunate known bug... Fixed for the next update already! Thank you
You can also press F5 and reload from your auto save, might be faster than doing a hard close.

After a game with a gambler (doesn't matter if I won or lost) there's an error the moment I press X inside the pub (game is searching for spade card or diamond card image leaving me with a retry button which doesn't do anything) but when you go outside the pub X works well.
