Excuse me how to trigger the plot with cherry

Excuse me how to trigger the plot with cherry

It automatically triggers on Wednesday.

If you used cheat, then it might not trigger.

In that case wait until this weekend as v0.45 will be released.

From v0.45, Anti-cheat will be removed in the game.

 

[ayl1975]

它会在周三自动触发。

如果你使用了作弊，那么它可能不会触发。

在这种情况下，请等到本周末发布 v0.45。

从 v0.45 开始，游戏中将移除反作弊功能。

Thank you!

I really am grateful for you comment.

What you just addressed is the biggest concern for us right now.

I do agree that blocking contents is not the best idea in this business and, of course, in this site.

However, my friend, who is in charge of coding, still thinks that it is inevitable.

And, I do understand some of his concern, like, we have to give something to our patrons that is worth their support...



Since I have zero knowledge in coding and stuff, I had to persuade him to start this project in the beginning.

And, one of the condition he required to start was making a solid plan that guarantees him stable earnings.

And, yeah, both of us need earning that can, at least, make it sustainable to survive while doing this project.

Since I have graduated college I do have more time whereas he still has few more year to complete.
So, unlike me, this is the only source he is making money now.

So I understand it is harder for him to take risk in this...

As not a big fan of censored game myself, I still argue him from time to time.


Sorry about writing such a long reply.

I don't know I went on like that.

I guess it just felt like someone finally understands my side.

Before I started this project, I thought it would be really fun to make a game.


While I still find it fun and rewarding, there are some hardships that I've never expected.

Although my friend has been really supportive, there are times when I feel alone.

Especially when we don't agree on something such as all this whole patreon issue.


And it is really challenging for me since I'm a female and majority of consumer here are males.

Since I'm in charge of writing script (as I speak better english), plots, and editing all the video and pics,

I try hard to figure out what male players want in this kind of game, and sometimes I just don't feel confident

with my work..

It's funny because, before this project, I thought I knew enough of man to take charge in writing in this game.

Moreover, I'm not a native English speaker so it worries me a lot, too.


So, whenever people like you leave a comment and share their ideas,
it really helps me keep working hard on my project.



Anyways, thank you a lot (like tons),

and I hope you to have a great week, and share more ideas in the future (as long as you feel like...)




p.s. I do agree that drawing and rendering video is much harder work, and how I wish I can draw or render well...

But finding good sources, editing them requires a lot of time and effort, too... I have to search for right pictures for the story (and find pairs of them to match in one story) that come with good size and resolution, which takes like forever..
then re-edit all of them with photoshop... Maybe I'm not a good editor just yet..
But I believe it's worth all that time cuz I want to make something immersive and movie-like base on real porn.

I know it doesn't mean anything to ppl, but, at least, I'm not trying to earn easy money.
And I don't plan to be greedy with this project...
All I wanna do with this game is to come up with something that makes everyone happy
(me, my friend, my patrons, my non-patrons)

I apologize that I got triggered with that sentence even though your statement is true about real porn..
I really am sorry.
It was just too familiar cuz that's what my friend told me once on my part of work.. (comparing it to his work on coding)

I understand your need to make money, but if you put actual public game content behind paywall, expect to have a bad reputation. You can give early access to patreons like every other game developers and no one will complain. You don't have to make a grinding game. Take a look at A Spell For All, Savior, MilkyTouch. All you need is an interesting storyline and good render/real porn choice.

Thanks for your advice.

We've made a decision to change our policy!

There still will be in-game benefits for patrons such as cheats, purchasable items, real-estates, and etc,
however, no contents will be blocked from users.

From v0.45, there weren't be blocked contents, anti-cheat, and grinding element.

Yep, I think greed blinded us for a while that we made those bad choices. (blocking contents and anti-cheat)
The reason we made this game a grindy one at the beginning was because we were largely inspired by the game "Son of a bitch" Qsp game. While I still think it is a pretty good game, I do see now that some of its system is too grindy for players.
I guess we are making lots of beginner's mistakes as well...



I quoted the notification I posted few days ago below for more detail:

Ok,

so, I've had a long discussion with my co-developer, and we could resolve our differences in patreon contents approach.

I could finally persuade him after showing him some of my recent conversation with users in this thread.


In short, he agreed to unblock all the exclusive contents for the future.
He was unsure about removing anti-cheat until the very last moment, but still agreed to remove that part as well.

And, I'm not saying I'm not the one to blame. After all, I agreed on blocking contents and implementing anti-cheat in the end at that time.



Regarding v0.45, it will be released as planned, so it will largely change the early phase of the game.
In fact, we will change it more than we initially planned.
We are going to remove repeating events, and some of stat checks, and etc (all the grind).

So the early phase of the game won't be grindy or stressful.

In addition, we will re-work some of the script of Tori and Cherry.
There weren't be much new contents since it was planned to fix those problems from the start.

However, the added scenes (random scenes with Tori and Cherry) were largely unfinished thanks to my clumsiness...,
so we will complete those scenes in this version.

In short, v0.45 will be a complete overhaul that will remove the grind and let players get to rewarding scenes with much less amount of time.



For patrons, we will continue to provide what we promised. And, we promise to work hard for your support.

I'd like to thank those users who took their time to share your advice and concerns.
Without you, it would have taken couple more month to bring this change.
I hope all of you to have a wonderful week!

Hey, SOB is my favorite real porn game too, well I can same with Family Life. Both games have cheat mods too because they were too grinding. Damn shame those two games were cancelled because of economy sanction on Russia. Real porn games are my kink. I wish you well on your adult game developer career.

Thank you! Family Life is a good one, too!!

We'll try hard to fill in the void in Real porn genre

From v0.45, there won't be blocked contents.
Public version will be released in F95 this coming weekend.
Sorry to disappoint you..

Any android version of this game ?

Sorry, Not yet..

I guess we'll think upon it once the game gets on track...

There's simply too much tasks scheduled for v0.5 and v0.6

 

[dan123456ggvgv]

anyone have a save where most of the scenes are unlocked

 

[Mymy]

Hi!

v0.45 update will be released really soon. (it will be approved within few hours i hope)
As I've posted before, we've put much thoughts on fixing certain parts of the game, reflecting your opinions.

So this new update mainly focuses on removing grinds and faster game pace.
We've also removed anti-cheat and blocked contents as well.
Instead, we will focus on early access and other benefits (in-game bonuses and etc) as you've all advised.
In addition, we've polished random sex events with main characters (Tori and Cherry).

v0.5 and 0.6 will be released within this month as well.
I hope ya'll have a great weekend!

Same, I assume it's a bug

Quite the bug considering it prevents you from literally progressing to most of the content.

 

[F9Zoney]

anyone know how to go around the bug?

 

[iamcharlie]

I saw kendra lust and played the game but did not find enough content with her ! sad

 

[khaaleth]

they have to fix this bug - one condition too much not allowing story to going further...

or you can decompress and upload this file to game directory

 

[dan123456ggvgv]

any cheats or saves?
