yeah, they all take a long time to release an update! Even if they are able to generate funds with the subscriptions! it's a pity that most of the "studios"/"dev" switch to the milking mode...

See what I meant? This is why many go harem & dump everything at once. You work hard to create multiple possibilities & ppl are like "one scene?" Just ignore.
Tho even if you go exclusive routes, keep it concise, making sprawling exclusive routes for 10 girls is so not worth.
Then again, exclusive routes are not appreciated in harem games in general. (This has the harem tag, but I don't see it in the genre tab in op, so idk)

Note: I'm mostly talking about exclusive branches between 2 or more girls. I'm a fan of how you can choose how to treat the girls in this game: be kind or take advantage. These paths shouldn't take as much work If you can recycle some/most of the renders and general events while making subtle changes to the tone (rom vs dark).

Anyway, like I said before in my huge post: work smart to streamline the process as much as possible & ignore non-constructive criticism.
This is a nice game, especially for a 1st game (y)

We have decide to introduce NTR.

Just fucking with you.

-Over under how long from the time the game leaks that we get the first comment along the lines of, "that was short" or "that's it for X months!?!" I'm going to say third comment...15 mins.

-I worked my IRL job all week busting my ass and in my limited free time I worked on the NEXT update after this one. I get the Beta version a few days ago for this update and discover there are errors.

That meant I had to wake up on my one of two days off from IRL work, tell my wife and friends I was busy and spent my Saturday morning squashing bugs. Now, if it was you, is that how you'd like to spend your Saturday after a long work week? Me either. But I did it and do it.

I'm a real person doing the best I can to drain your balls of high grade baby making juice. I'm trying to make sure you don't go out with a full sack on any given night and impregnate the wrong chick who takes 1/2 your money five years from now (you're welcome by the way).

-So many of you have been beyond supportive on here the last...weeks, months however long and I can't tell you how much that motivates me personally to push thru tough times. This was BY FAR the most difficult update from a technical standpoint. I'm not sure we get there without you guys just leaving supportive comments on here and elsewhere.

I got a DM this morning from a fan that was very kind. When I woke up this morning I was fucking bummed to have to work on QC. But the msg he/she left really gave me the morale boost I needed. Financial support is awesome but a kind fucking word often times gets me in the mood to write, do art or push thru laborious shit.

-Please don't forget the Patrons who do support the game financially and give them a shout out here or on Discord. Honest to God you think my wife would let me spend this kind of time in my basement if we had no financial support?!? These folks make it fucking happen. On Discord, the supporters are some of the nicest fucking people. They deserve your thanks and ours. Much respect.

-Also, a quick thanks to NeonGhosts who continues to be a supporter and a fellow developer/friend I can lean on with ideas and just as a sounding board. thanks homie.

I appreciate you guys sticking with us.

Not inaccurate lol there's only two off the top of my head that are truly unforgettable, this one and SG.

We haven't seen her much despite the title, but she lives in the building and I think it's past time to turn up the heat!

Is this actually a harem game, glanced through the comments, and they weren't really clear.

I'm not sure too.
So far you can be on all the girls routes with no exclusivity.
There are exclusivity in events, but the genabooty call event repeats for 2 days so I think that might be so players who say no to the other girls don't have an empty night.
Similarly, the kori sex scene is only got if you didn't progress on the Abby route. However you can still be on her(kori) route by choosing the correct choice earlier. However looking at the text, the next day scene with kori might be similarly dependent on sating yes/no to hannah.
Kori will probably similar to genna in that her scene will be a repeating alternative to the other girls events for those who say no.
Basically, get genna/kori scenes if you don't say yes to the girl who has an event that day :unsure:

This is the only reason I'm following the game to be honest. I don't follow games & just return after a few years to a lot of content, but I'm curious about the structuring of the game & if kori events will be a similar repeating event to the genabootycall

However, with the number of girls already introduced, I think the game has no choice but to go harem at this point. In non-harem exclusive route games you want to limit the girls/routes to around 3-5 on average.
With all the girls having rom/dark routes, there is already a lot of work. Now if it decides to go 'only one girlfriend/relationship' too, I sudder to think the work needed per update relative to it's size: make 8 events but players only see 1. (This is kinda what I wanted to advise on my 1st post here, but that led to the whole replayability bit.)
Not to mention the dev doesn't have the time for that from his post above.

But I understand the wish to keep complex choices with consequences. That makes a game feel very real. Which is why I've been suggesting inclusive choices that actually increase complexity & number of outcomes. Like I had suggested before, the inclusive version of abby/kori choice would actually increase the option from "kori or abby" to "kori or abby or kori&abby", while also bringing stats like charm into consideration.

Anyway, harem games are also of 2 types: real & fake. Real harem games focus on building a proper harem. Fake harem games don't actually focus on actually building a harem, but are harem games by virtue of not restricting the amount of girls you can romance - like a dating sim where you can date multiple ppl.
BoB looks like the 2nd type rn, but I can see a harem happening, especially on the dark routes.

Let's see if the dev provides any clarification how he wants to approach this.
