Game looks promising ! Looking forward to next update !

Little content yet, but that’s expected for a version 0.1.

Ya can do it, even if its not perfect the tags are gold and a passion project is good, just learn along the way and if ya finish the game and want to go back and polish that is ok too, just dont fall in to the trap of constantly remaking the game without finish in it first, that bores people, just add content, polish along the way and remake when done, at the very least thats the way it should be. (This works for me in my day job and I hope it works for ya) Good Luck!!

I agree. We're still in the early stages, but as we move forward, there will probably be more things that need to be redone. If I keep going back every time, I'm sure the project will never get finished—especially since I don’t have a lot of free time. Thanks for your support.

I have to say, this game look promising as fuck, its not often you see a game with this type of MC, we see some games that have Netori here and there, but a heavy one like this? not so much.

Thanks so much for playing my game and for your kind words and support! Since I'm a fan of Netori, this game—and any future ones I make—will stick to that theme.

This could be something interesting, or another game with an MC who "corrupts" the girls only to watch another end up having sex with them.

We'll have to wait and see how it ends, if it does.

This was in the Developer Notes, but here’s a quick clarification.

The game follows your initial choices. If you allow prostitution, MC can sell your girls to strangers. If sharing is allowed, characters like Koen may share them—but only with your permission. When a sharing moment comes up, an in-game menu will appear asking if you want to share with specific characters like Koen.

I want this process to be smooth because, as a player and supporter myself, I hate when developers trick players into unwanted sharing after hours of playing or donating. If a bug causes unwanted sharing, it will be fixed quickly. Thanks for understanding—this game is still in development.

Since the game focuses on moral decline and corruption, some light fetish elements are mandatory. For example, sharing can be blocked, but public sex and exhibitionism with MC are core and cannot be turned off. So MC and Lily can have sex in front of Koen, but if you exclude Koen, no sharing will happen.

You've clarified the doubt many of us had, and I'm simply out of line. You're trying to please everyone with "optional/avoidable" content, which will inevitably result in whoever downloads this not seeing all the content. I mean, it's like buying a pizza where half the slices are shitty. If you don't like the shitty stuff, you won't eat it. But that will prevent you from eating the whole pizza, causing half of it to go to waste. The same thing will happen here. Users who want to support or play this but don't like "sharing" will simply lose content. Not to mention, with each update, you'll have to give content to each group, which will decrease the content depending on each player's taste.

Thanks for clarifying the starting content, but it's simply pointless.

I don’t know if you’ve played the game, but judging without understanding the story isn’t fair. You’re raising general developer complaints without addressing anything specific about this game. Just so you know, I’m not here to please everyone. I like sharing and prostitution in a game with a dominant MC, but I don’t like netorare. So I’m making the kind of game I enjoy. If you’re expecting romance, this isn’t the game for you.

Story-wise, the MC’s main goal is prostitution because he runs a mafia and needs income. But that’s an endgame event—only happening in the last couple of episodes after the main story is complete. Sharing, prostitution, and gay content are balanced in the system. For example, if gay content is on, you have scenes with both Poppy and Finn, focusing more on Finn. If it’s off, you’re with Poppy and Finn is a cuckold, watching sadly.

Or you’re with Lily, and a menu pops up:
“Invite Koen?”
“Yes” — Lily, Koen, and you are together.
“No” — Lily and you only.

What exactly do you expect to ‘miss’ in these scenes? Sharing and prostitution aren’t constant, long-term gameplay features — they either happen in the moment or they don’t.

Again, MC is very dominant, and even if I wanted to, netorare wouldn’t fit this game.

Yes, I played your game, and I know that your game has a dominant MC (something I applaud). I'm saying this because there are several games where the MC is dominant, BUT magically, with one decision, he ends up just "watching" another idiot NPC having sex with the girls without receiving anything in return. This, no matter how much he "agrees" with them, is pathetic for an MC who pretends to be a corrupter. I'm not saying that's the case with this game as such (it only has the first update), but what you're saying now has much more context as to what "sharing" entails. An MC/NPC/girl isn't the same as one where the MC pathetically watches. This isn't your fault; this forum doesn't have adequate tags.

If what you're saying is true, then I retract it, and then I admit that it is functional, at least on paper.

Good luck.

I get where you're coming from, but just to clarify — characters like Koen and Tyler are written based on their roles, not their appearance. Tyler, who’s white, is actually shown as much filthier. The story is written so that you hate Tyler, and in many ways, Koen is a much better person than him. But I appreciate you sharing your thoughts.

Any mom-son content in this game?

No, there’s no mom-son content. Ella and Alvin aren’t related — just housemates. Any resemblance is purely fictional.

Alvin doesn’t have much content yet, but there may be fully optional scenes with MC, Ella, and Alvin in future updates. That said, the story is centered on Tyler and his actions, so Alvin won’t be a main focus. Again, no characters are actually related.

good game, following

Thanks a lot — great to have you on board!
