And there will never be a version 0.16. 0.15b is the last of that line. A while back Goldo, the core developer on the game, halted any work on 0.15 in order to focus all efforts on 0.2. 0.2, when complete, will include all the storyline for Chapter 2, and a lot of improvements to the game system itself.

If you are a somewhat experienced player, you might want to go ahead and make the change to 0.2. It's still effectively in beta, and is a good bit less stable than 0.15, but the improvements are quite nice, and it's fun to see what Goldo has written for the continued story.
I got the feeling that 0.2 is more like a remaster than a new version. Basically the dev decided he didn't like how he did some of the stuff in 0.15 and is rebuilding the whole thing from scratch. So a lot of stuff from the current version will still be there but a ton of stuff under the hood will be completely different and I imagine completely incompatible. Sort of like a dev who develops something in RenPy and decides he wants to remake the entire game in Unity.

Thank god I have some coding knowledge to make sense of what to test in console LMAO. For people that might have this problem too, I went into console and typed renpy.change_language(None) and it worked
Thanks for the help!
God, Thank You so much! Finally I can play the game.

While not entirely inaccurate, 0.2 is more of an evolution than a revolution.

Some mechanics are updated, and a bunch more things added, but nothing completely different. Okay, maybe the dialogue system is significantly revamped.

It's just that Goldo's time is limited, and he's decided to focus on 0.2 instead of doing anything further with 0.15.

Nothing as radical as that. The commercial analogue would be more along the lines of a studio releasing a standalone expansion pack and ceasing to support the base game.

Not updaited (
Not sure what is meant by this.

If you are complaining that the 0.15b version has not been updated in a while, it's not going to be. The developer has put 0.15 into a stable state and, moving forward, is working on the 0.2 version. 0.2 is still not nearly as stable as 0.15b, but is definitely playable. Not necessarily the best place for new players, but is playable for longer-time players. 0.2 can be found at the link below. You need the base and the latest patch. Do not mix and match the patch with the older versions, it's not compatible with 0.15 versions.

call advance_to_chapter(game.chapter+1)
File "game/BKevents.rpy", line 552, in script
$ chosen_district = ui.interact()
File "game/BKevents.rpy", line 552, in <module>
$ chosen_district = ui.interact()
Exception: Unknown keyword arguments: contexth

Wicked Rouge is probably the closest. The only other ones I'm aware of are Something Unlimited and Queen's Brothel, and the first isn't an actual simbro game and the second is just... well, see for yourself. :cry:
Hey thanks alot. I've played Wicked Rouge when it was a younger game and liked it. I'm actually waiting to see how it matures further. I did notice that it was updated since the last time I played and I really liked where the dev. was heading with it. I will check out the other 2 games you stated. I've heard both of those names before but never really played them. I appreciate you taking the time to try helping me out. What kind of games do you like most? I've been curious about what a "trainer" is defined as like I see all these Japanese games with taboo tags such as rape, incest, prostitution, etc and I am really interested in learning if any of them japanese titles can be ported for Android and not only functional in Windows???

Well, neither of them is terribly good. SU is basically a Patreon cash cow, and Queen's Brothel is more or less in the proof-of-concept stage.

Moddable games. :cool:

There are many Japanese games that can be made to work, some with more difficulty than others. There's things that are translated, things that are gibberish machine translated, and those with full-on moon runes. Aku-Mu was probably the last more or less translated one I played that left a slightly positive impression.

In my experience, Japanese games are very hit or miss. They are definitely 'out of the box' from a more Western POV, but that merely means that they're either genius or bizarre. And the bizarre far outnumber the genius. :cautious:

WOWZERS! GeeWillikers Batman! I'm not kidding when I tell you I just experienced the most vivid dejevo however da holy hell you spell that Robin; whilst reading your brilliant explanation. Thanks and I think I am leaning more and more towards learning how to port titles myself, but I bet it requires a pc with Windows or whatnot to do so.

Not sure if it has an android version, but there's Free Cities. The github one, not the one(s) on f95.
The github version seems to have been killed?

Anyway, yeah, HTML games might also work on Android. They're usually a miserable UI experience, however.

Ren'Py titles can be ported to Android, but it looks like the more complex ones (like BK :D ) might be difficult. And it looks somewhat non-trivial and does requires some other OS to do it on.

Plus, touchscreen UI and screen size are major obstacles there. :cautious:

I don't think that's true. Just google pregmod, it's constantly being updated. It started just as a mod, but at this point it's by far the largest version of the game you can get.

Yeah, looks like that's a problem. Your other error is also caused by this.

Ver 0.2 bugs should really be reported in , but the following should work. Follow up there if further problems; registration is easy.

I tested a workaround for new ver 0.2 installations:

On first running game and getting error screen,
1. Select "Console"
2. Copy and paste, then press Enter
persistent.girl_mix["default"] = list(gpacks)
3. Press Esc key
4. Select Ignore
5. Continue with normal start (including selecting subset of girlpacks if wanted).
