Are you using saves from 0.0.1? Iirc the saves from that version won't work but afterwards its working fine for me. I always export the saves to a separate folder and replace the entire game files whenever a new update comes out and then just import back the save.
Exporting/importing saves don't work, only replacing the files of the old update with the ones from the new update works just like you said it would. Thanks a lot brother. This info should've been on the main page.

Played through all update routes, enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. The posing work was well done on both Roy path and Photographer-dude path; too many games skip over eroticism to get to straight p-in-v banging and miss a whole world of sensuality and sexuality captured by stuff like this:

That kind of storytelling made me almost sub immediately....my only reservations are on the prior mentioned carter stuff; bluntly I hate the bbc fetish and want to stay far away.... yet I love everything else you're doing - so I want to get some gauge of how avoidable that stuff will be when it actually happens in the story. I know you mentioned there will be choices, yet I'm still wary as the current dialogue often refers to these future events as canon.


Separately, I think your strategy of switching to 1080 renders from 4k is a good idea, there's little noticeable quality loss for practical purposes (unless really zoomed in), and I know firsthand how greatly that affects render times.


However, tbh, I did rush through the script part to push the update within a month, especially the Roy routes which made the dialogues between MC and Chuck bland and chatbot-like as someone pointed out. I spent too much time on the rendering part making me focus less on the quality of the script.
Personally, the only part I felt was botty was the text between duplicate renders on betacuck/alphacuck roy path - I realize it's more dev time but some slight variations in events would go a long way in making the paths feel different other than just dialogue.

The only other dialogue feedback I'd mention is some of the earlier 'date days' seemed to really plod along. I get you're telling a slow buildup story and I'm all for that; but IMHO things like the ice cream date didn't justify the amount of text or renders dedicated to it. On the other hand, all the third date days kept me highly engaged even prior to any physical acts.


Anyways overall was a 9/10 update so well done.

Hey, thank you for your thoughts. The planning for v0.4.0 was time consuming because the outlines of future routes had to be planned before I could start writing the script. It is every dev's nightmare to hit a wall in the future and I wanted to avoid that.

There are 3 major routes but each route would have at least 4 sub-routes which makes this game quite big and spread-out. So like someone mentioned in the past, it is a lose-lose situation no matter if we stick to focusing on one route or simultaneously update all routes. We already got someone asking why cheating route wasn't updated.

But this is a work in progress game and we can only gradually build up the content. Or another option is to update once every 2-3 months which feels too much of a gap for a game like this.

However, tbh, I did rush through the script part to push the update within a month, especially the Roy routes which made the dialogues between MC and Chuck bland and chatbot-like as someone pointed out. I spent too much time on the rendering part making me focus less on the quality of the script.

That made me realize I shouldn't rush through anything next time but plan things properly so that the quality of the content wouldn't be affected.

The next update will mainly focus on the Cheating Route along with some update to the Loyal Route. If time permits, there will be more content in the Loyal Route as well so that hopefully two major routes get updated at the same time. We have a pleasant surprise for Loyal Route to make it not boring for those who are ironically bored with usual vanilla stuff ;)

About the pacing, I have to remind you guys again that we wouldn't be rushing to sex scenes but make it naturally progress. From our pov, it would be strange to see an introverted and loving gf doing cowgirl style with another dude after just few days (talking about the cuck route here).

But the 2nd event would be bolder than the first and so on as the plot progresses. Let's say it's our idea of expressing the corruption factor. That's it for this wall of text lol

Do look forward to our next update!
I can see the care and effort you're putting into the project, and that's amazing. Personally, I'm playing the Cheating Route, and I'm really excited for the next update. Wishing you all the best with the game's development. Keep up the great work!

No mention bro. I follow the same thing for all games and works out well most of the time.

Hi!

The carter stuff I know might seem like canon but he will be optional like Roy in the cuck route.

As for the variation in the sub-cuck routes, there is already some very slight variations in few renders/dialogues but the difference will become bigger as the plot progresses.

The date was just a convenient setup to make the starting of the route somewhat believable even if parts of it might seem lengthy/not fun. Now that the setup is done, it will be easier to jump into more "core" events.

Thanks for putting out your thoughts. Really appreciate your indepth review of the update!

That's something we have already been considering. But first we need to let everyone have a taste of all the 3 routes so that they know which routes are fun or not. So after pushing at least 1 or 2 Loyal Route updates, we will hold a poll and see if people want to see the loyal route get updated or save it for the last :)

I continued from the 0.3.0 and there were new scenes with Roy and 0 new scenes after Carter (1-BetaRoy;2-AlphaStranger). How to get the 3rd route with the photographer, he should be the stranger on my route, no?

Is it the end of the update after she signs the contract on the loyal route.
Yeap its the end for loyal and cheating route as of now.
that was from the last day, here is the dialogue where MC reacts:
View attachment 4481669
The "5 Minutes Later" is based on relative time from your last message to anyone in your contact list. So it might seem confusing at first but the last selfie Roy sent you was at the end of the 2nd day and the MC reaction you posted is from the last day.
So Roy is the NTS, the black dude is the NTR and then love route? Im lost! This needs a guide for the choices so you know which route to take!
Please use the "Hints" option in settings. It guides you from the beginning of the game by giving hints for each major choice.
The loyal route would be enticing with plenty of risky situations with unknowns, later proven as false alarms.
Well there are going to be some risks and danger. We will see what kind of risks they are ;)
I continued from the 0.3.0 and there were new scenes with Roy and 0 new scenes after Carter (1-BetaRoy;2-AlphaStranger). How to get the 3rd route with the photographer, he should be the stranger on my route, no?
If you continued from 0.3.0 and was already in the Roy route then you have to go back and select the Hookup Queen option (if hints are on you can see this name), right after Bella asks how she should prepare for her first scene with Carter. Then you can choose the stranger sub-route.

true, my bad.

question is what is considered "loyal" in the first place :D if she still filming sex scenes as part of her acting career, but MC realizing males are just simulating the process (to a certain degree), that could be a worthy branch.
