Saw your review. Just FYI, there is a opacity option in the settings if you meant that you want the background of the textbox to be darker so the dialogue is easier to read.

Edit: Image for reference, the option is TextBox Transparency. Set it all the way down for an almost black background for dialogue text.
Also, I'm the same... I always appreciate having the darker background for text.

Thank you! I have always been a sucker for transparent text box, so I never thought of making any change to it.

I don't wanna be that guy, but white text on bright backgrounds really ruin immersion for me.

Yeah, that's why the settings have the option to change the opacity of the textbox, and you can also change the color of the text, were some complaints about the textbox, so I just added the option to remove and readd xd

also idk if you knew or not but the clipping is kinda jarring with her thigh literally going through ours. and yeah the text is kinda... idk, i feel like a regular dialogue box would be better than a black bar. But I don't wanna come off as ungrateful, just these are personal tastes. I don't mind pressing H to see scenes and stuff.

interracial

Is it actually? I only see monster girls in the pictures which would be the monster girl tag, interracial is reserved for real human races.

I hope that by Sayu agreeing on sharing the MC means he gets to have them as girlfriends. We're so close to that part now, all that's left is the romance part where it'll eventually lead to them being one of the MC's girlfriends. Not just girls that Sayu allowed them to have fun with the MC for. I want that "harem" tag to be fully utilized in its meaning and purpose, that it will eventually lead to something more serious and for them to commit being with the MC. Like that.

The only sex so far is with the one at the beginning of the game. Here's hoping when we finally get to sex scenes, there'll be a bit longer and of course, really hot.

Really sad for Karen, they just left, like holy shit. Looking forward for updates.

Yeah, so there's some stuff that has been said that haven't been on screen yet but kind of behind the scenes... I'm planning on going back to this and showing this in a later date, and my plans are a full-fledged harem where sayu will get those fetishes, and dw we all want girlfriends, Sayu will stay as the main girlfriend for sure though no doubt about it ^^

thank you for clarifying.

No problem^^ there's a decent share of humans of, but mainly monster girls that's for sure

...years later...not really the best start after the epilogue, especially if you move in with a hot sister that obviously has the hots for you...and then you have a girlfriend in a strip club O_O

First bug right after the first choice (bring in the delivery):

While running game code:
File "game/Day1.rpy", line 352, in script
$ my()
File "game/Day1.rpy", line 352, in <module>
$ my()
NameError: name 'my' is not defined

Hmm...let me get this right...his girlfriend is willing to share him with the succubus, the morning after he left because of the message...then he visits his mother over night and even the academy over night too without telling them anything? And then, as soon as he goes back "one week later"...and they act as if he didnt disappeared for days...its like 2 seperate storys with home and school if nothing conntects them, especially since they can only come back home on weekends and both have jobs...and 2 growing harems instead of one

Aside from these minors and a few typos it is a solid start and can become special depending on the story. I'll wait for updates...btw, any plans for a regular update schedule or just when its done? Just to know how long i need to wait ^^

P.S:
Mean poll...how should i pick one? Normally i'd pick the sister if i cant decide, but he has 2 sisters

It's weird I don't get that error lol, and uh they kept in touch though now and than, but I suppose visiting- keeping in touch is different, but still, yeah. Well, I'm planning on keeping the home content as weekend events, and school stuff everything in the week. hmh, to be honest I'm not entirely sure yet, 0.3 is def gonna take more time... I'm in the works of the whole UI sandb setup and some other stuff after that's done it should be 1-2 months depends really, I still need to get a feeling of the amount of content I can pull out in the sandbox scenario, but we'll see xd my goal rn is to make it as enjoyable and a decent sandbox, not with annoying UI and map selection.

And how do they keep in touch? If i remember correctly the academy is hidden and shielded by a barrier...would be a lame spell if some handy can blow the cover in both directions. You may need/introduce a magical gimmick, app or artifact to use the handy between both "worlds"
Personally i dont care, but most people dont like sandbox for usless running around in empty spaces. So make sure to show the character icons on the map so people know where to go and which empty location would be a useless visit. Personally i like sandbox, but prepare for some bad behavior, some tend to use the same vocabulary they would use to describe their opinions on ntr

Oh my bad, I thought u meant the years mc was apart from his family, everything went though Mirai, anyway. yh I know I was either gonna do some sort of schedule people cn check or small face images of the girls I'll prob share some of the UI stuff later on in my discord how it looks and stuff. On ntr? you mean sandbox? No ntr on my games!

 

[Psykoman1978]

Will/is there a way to break up with Sayu?

 

[Psykoman1978]

alright the question doesn´t matter anymore i saw you don´t have an influence with whom you want to sleep with already deletet it after i was sure you have to do something with tisha after i saw mirai as astral same with sayu und the other one where you can´t choose if you want it or not

 

[Virulenz]

I lost my English and never found it again

Thats what i call a honest signature...

I've gotta say, I'm very interested in giving this ago, but that impending Sandbox tag is putting me off. Just how sandboxy is it going to be?

Because in my experience sandbox is usually tedious and annoying in terms of blindly clicking around trying to find content and usually requiring a walkthrough to tell you where to go, essentially making the playthough linear and voiding any usefulness the sandbox format offered. Or the game is linear anyway, but it breaks up the story into little chucks that are constantly interrupted, forcing the player to go from one location after another, in this case your just swapping out potential story content for coding time on sandbox elements and at that point I think it's just a waste of time that could be spent on other areas of the game

I realise this is all personal preference, which is why I'm not going to complain or ask you to reconsider adding it into the game. I'm just going to ask, how sandboxey are you going to make it? I have used the search function, and it seems like you'll be locking content behind timed window (morning, noon, night sort of thing) and that the player will have to go around building up stats. I do like the fact that you're considering making it a player choice between sandbox and VN because I suspect that it'll be the only way for me to enjoy the game.

I would also add a Dev Notes section answering this on the front page so you don't have to keep answering this question.
