AGAIN: Game's not dead, I've just been slow as fuuuck! XD I have 2 other jobs (I work at an indie game's studio as team lead and lead game designer, and I'm drawing and inking a comic), and I was a bit of a fucking idiot, was doing unpaid extra hours and building up stress, so that may have had something to do. At the same time I was releasing Goodie Packs regularly, working on Ben X and Scooby when I could, but it was a pace I couldn't keep running to. I exploded, re-examined my priorities, realized NSFW is what I love doing so I should remind myself of that, feel better now. I have set a certain number of weekly hours to work on NSFW and stopped doing extra hours. It seems to work, so I'm sticking to it.
As long as you guys are alive and kicking, pls, by all means, take your time. No one wants another dead project though burned out enthusiasts.

Glad you managed to survive all that and still want to continue the game, because is one of my favourites.

Just find your own pace and forget about all those people yelling for monthly updates, they have no idea about the work behind something like this.

Translation: You can't complain about a lack of updates because you don't have a game.
if you remove complaints and criticism alot of these games would be absolute dog dookie.

Well my personal opinion is that I can only complain about something that I'm paying for; when I download something for free I can encourage them or give a constructive opinion, but the only ones with the right to complain are their patreons (again, my personal opinion).

If you download something for free, you enjoy it or you delete it and move into another thing.

Yeah, I agree. The ones that work need people wanting to see the game to keep them going through the bad times, and the ones who doesn't, need to know they are breaking their promise and feel like dicks about it. Criticism is always good. Don't misunderstand me, I love that a lot of you guys know that in life you need to pay your bills and sometimes you can't work on what you love, and that shit happens... Without you we'd be depressed as fuck. But if we didn't read people getting impatient, I wouldn't have stopped doing extra hours at the studio, for example. It's a balance.

Hehe. So am I, actually. Sorry it got me a bit to get my shit together, I really shouldn't have let myself suckered into doing extra hours just because. Luckily I woke up and didn't let it happen for too long... Live and leran. Who knew working three jobs at the same time was bad for you, right?
NO! you need to add 2 more jobs! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::LOL::LOL: Ofc it's bad two is still reasonable but 3 is just too much... you work too much and your body would not be able to handle the fatigue..

how do i increasae lust
just play the main story and choose option that increase lust like saving the chicken increases lust. Another option are the health check training and the lollipops which together give 15+ lust but just for that day it resets the next day. If you choose the right option the training is enough to get u all the current stuff available so u dont have to spend money on lollipops.

Hey, how's everyone doing with the whole coronavirus thing? I still have to work from home but I'm hoping it gives me a bit more time to work on the games. Anyway, keep safe, people. Wash your hands and don't lick strangers's faces on the street (unless they are really, really hot)
