First of - I'll give you some context. 3 weeks ago my patreon was deleted without notice, and I lost 80% of the game profits. This meant that I was basically fucked, especially that 2 weeks before that happened I quit my job to focus on the game development.Nobody is going to pay becouse of the banners (or the fap mode, if you want just porn... pornhub and you are done.), on the contrary, they will end up abandoning the game. There are tons of games of this style for free and without ads.
In my case, I have been playing this game for a while now and I was already thinking of contributing as I have already done with others games who deserve it for the amount of work done and that I consume.
I'm not saying don't advertise yourself, I'm saying don't make it so invasive because you ruin the game. Before there was advertising in dead zones, that was perfect ... you didn't ruin the gameplay and you advertised yourself.
Every time I updated the game, I returned to those areas that were under construction and see the advertisements (in those areas perhaps, you could even put the banners).
While the advertisements are like this, I am not going to play the game because it is painful for the eyes (at least for me that I play on a big screen). Please let me know if you remove them in any update on the change log.
I was almost convinced to abandon the project. But I wanted to give it one more try. And it worked - I've worked really hard for this last 3 weeks, not sleeping, adding features and content - and I got a lot of my supporters back.
As for the ads - I added them in 0.3.15, hoping that they will bring some profit. But at the same time - my game, that I worked so hard on, was looking like shit, so I removed them and added 2 small banners instead that just ask to support. I understand that people had issue with 0.3.15 ads, but now? Every free mobile games has 5x more ads... If you play porn games on Gamcore - you're literally surrounded by ads. So why it's such a problem, that I have 2 small banners that appear on random? Writing this game is SHITLOAD of work, and you have it all for free, you can take this game apart if you want, crack it, like many people do here, turn off the ads, whatever. I actually think it's fair deal
You need to save to disk, man. I have no control over how browser works.Another serious problem is that of the saved games, every time I update I lose them and I have to start from the beginning.
Not sure which update you mean by last update. The last update brought the balance back down, it was 0.3.15 that fucked it up with triple multipliers. Now you have a difficulty setting, but the default is 200%, same as it always was.In the last update, I noticed that you made it very easy to increase the friendship and desire with the girls, I think you broke the balance.
For many reasons, that's not a good idea in my opinion. Longer/bigger vids kill the browser. I've tried that already - too many people complaint. Sometimes my game displays 10-20 vids at the same time, they need to be short and SD.Since I am giving my constructive criticism, I take the opportunity to tell you that putting longer videos and in HD as prizes of different events would be a good idea.
But there's also a matter of copyrights. I'm taking around 5s clips because I believe that it's free marketing for those pornstars/studios. But if I start taking longer parts, someone would probably have an issue with that.
Thirdly, the game size. It's already huge, and still A lot of content is coming.
I don't think I'll be removing them. It's just 2 small banners, and the one that's in the game itself appears on random, it's not even always there.I hope my comments are useful to you, and in case you don't remove those annoying advertisements, thank you very much for the previous versions, I have had fun with your game.
