Just played the initial release and I feel like there's a nugget of a good and interesting game in there, but there are major problems which currently inhibit playability. I'm not talking about the barebones amount of activity or the meaninglessness of going to work, as those are things that will change as the game progresses. The current level of grind is brutal, but again I think that more things to do would alleviate that, and I hope the grind will lessen with time and development.

First and foremost, there needs to be a way to pass time quicker and more effectively. There should be a big ol' button that lets you pass X amount of time.

Second, the interface is difficult and unpleasant. Action buttons blend into the background and can be hard to spot, and in general it needs more contrast. It shouldn't be that hard to make the necessary changes at this early stage of development.

Last, the English in this game is bad enough that it inhibits play and makes it difficult to understand what's going on. I appreciate that English is clearly not the dev's first language, and I further appreciate that English is a...challenging language to learn. It's entirely possible that the English used in the game is machine translation, as it has all the hallmarks of it. Unfortunately, whatever the reason, the English currently in the game actively detracts from my enjoyment. I would encourage the dev to work with someone who knows English better and get some proper translations.

I would like to reiterate that there is a good idea at the core of the game, but it needs considerable polish as well as more development. At its current stage it plays more like a proof-of-concept than an actual game.

I don't understand why Cory Chase is popular. Such terrible dead fish fake energy in every scene I've ever glanced at.

encouraging start but yeah you desperately need a way to pass time that doesn't involve watching porn

keep going with the game and it could be quite fun in a while

Unplayable without a way to skip time. Also, the game and sexual situations would have to be a lot more creative for me to put up with English this bad.

Y'all throwing fits over 0.1? Kudos to the handful of you that know an initial build isn't a complete game.

It's entirely possible that the English used in the game is machine translation, as it has all the hallmarks of it.
Honestly while it's still bad it's surprisingly passable.

Most MTL games are Japanese and the languages are so different that it's genuinely unreadable. This is the first time I've seen a Russian MTL and if you told me the guy just sat with Russian to English dictionary and was very literal in his translations I'd believe you.

If anyone has the time, I don't think it'd require much effort to clean it up.

Ah yes, Cory Chase, the quintessential porn step mom.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that.
I'm not a big fan of her but she's in so much stuff that the dev will never run out of material and having a female protagonist have a dedicated actress in an HTML game would be a first.

Trying to think of someone who has anything remotely close to as much content to work with. :unsure:

There needs to be a skip time button to be added. Sleep and Masturbation is the only way to move time forward. Can't move things forward during the weekend because you can't Masturbate due to the fact that you cant watch porn when Partner is in the room.
