I'll insert my 5 cents in here: if it's possible, insert one LI for cheating path, where Bella's the one in control(and I'm not talking about Beta Cuck paths). What I mean by that is: it's not the guys who seduce her and win her over - like the director, head actor or Roy, but she herself somehow ends up cheating and things just happen on their own. Like...with Roy you see from the first messages that he wouldn't mind replacing MC. But having two pure people getting corrupted by each other is something that could be more interesting. Like, inner doubts and conflict of feelings for both and all that.
Hm-mmm, why not insert Chuck in there? I get that his role is to literally be players' eyes, but having an LI where things just somehow happen - accident here, occasional glance there, weird situation a few days later and the chemistry between two people who have always been friends yet somehow turn into lovers, could be somewhat fresh and less cliche-filled for cheating territory(c'mon, let's face it: in 9 cases out of 10 it's a smug alphabro, a cringe blackmailing dude or a horse-dick nubian).
Just one idea that I had.

As far as *which branch should be updated*, I'd say this: if you make one path per update - peeps will start getting upset. "Oh why it's Cuck and not Loyal yada yada". One long update per 3-5 months > 1 small update in 1 month.

Just my 5 cents)
Thank you for your thoughts. But I already have some special plans for Chuck and sticking to the main outline I have in mind until the end (There was a mini easter egg dropped in the cheating route in latest update to hint at this but it's easy to miss unless you closely follow the story).

As for the updates there will always be some people who will get upset no matter what release schedule you follow. So again just planning to stick with what I think works best for us and most people :) Like someone said it isn't wise to try and make everyone happy.

maybe
This game has great strengths that have made me follow it:
  • FMC's personality: She is not a worthless slut; she is not someone who would cheat because of simple lust; she is not a liar or a trickster. She is kind, elegant, and has an original and attractive appearance
  • MC's personality: In short, he has also performed very well in his role in this genre
  • The relationship between MC and FMC: This is also excellent
  • NTR and NTS implementation: There is a concept behind it. This is perhaps the biggest strength of this game. It's not like 99% of NTS games that are just about a boy and a girl being horny. Instead, there are reasons and meaning behind the choices: their future, career future, expediency, etc
  • Other characters' personalities: Again, they all performed well in their roles
  • Dialogues: The dialogues have gradually improved. Now we have entered a phase of tension, excitement, and fear. Unlike the beginning of the game, there are no more redundant or uninteresting dialogues. Now, most of them are enjoyable
  • Emojis: one of the great ways to convey emotions between characters and the player is through emojis
    • although there shouldn't be too many,
    • Their number in this game isn't too high
  • And other strengths
The flaws of this game: The reason for mentioning these flaws is to improve this good game
  • Messaging speed: Its maximum speed is low. Sometimes it's needed
  • Theme: The lack of dark mode hurts the eyes of those who are used to dark mode
yah character personality is good along with how their exchanges/personality varies on different paths. My favorite existing path was the beta cuck because of this - some of the chat exchanges had me chuckling aloud like with how the mc and chuck take refuge together and share in their meakness on the [humiliation] subpath whereas on the [jealousy] subpath chuck functions more as an antagonist to the mc. Part of why it's a damn shame this won't last :cry:

I was playing the hookup queen path and basically got zero content for update 0.5, is that normal or a bug?

Nice Game, but: Saving Game doesn't work, which is a Problem if you are not into always play the Game from Beginning with every Update. Also: Good: Enlarging the Picture, very bad: no option to go back to the Chat if you enlarged the Picture. I play on a PC, if this helps.

You can go back to the chat. Just resize the picture back to vertical and in upper left hand side (difficult to see at times) there’s a button.

I tried that, but strangely, it is not every Time possible. If you enlarge the Picture when there aren't any messages after it in the Chat, its possible to get back to the Chat, but if there are several Messages after the Picture, its not possible.

So, what was the reasoning behind the move to Unity? Because I don't think easier saving was one of them.
it's wonky but once you get used to it, works everytime. In the specific order you have to 1) click the textbox in the save naming interface, 2) type your save name, 3) hit the enter key. Anything outside of this and it may not work.

Okay, but why the move to Unity? Saving was pretty simple before, it certainly didn't become easier with Unity - what is the advantage of moving the game to Unity?

NTR and NTS implementation: There is a concept behind it.
NTS you mean alpha cuck path? If so, the story with stranger felt clumsy and forced. It made Bella's immaculate image fall apart quickly, the sexual energy with the stranger was absent, she looked like a cheap slut, I didn't like it.
On the other hand, the beta cuck path was executed quite well, especially downplaying the connection as acting and nothing real. Roy is already developed as a character, MC's friend, and that connection with Bella made sense, integrated well into the story and looked good.

I dunno, I liked the stranger director path, she seemed reasonably reluctant and reticent at the start. As mentioned before, I think the dialogue with Chuck is what really shined on both paths. Only path I felt was weaker was the cheat path where it turns into a fem-protag and Roy turns into the de facto "boyfriend".
