It's something I didn't have originally plotted for; however, some feedback has shown interest. I'm considering if it can be worked into the existing plot paths or if another plot path containing it will be unique enough to justify including.

TLDR: not yet, maybe.
Female encounters has been in the plot on certain paths from day one, that's different from a romance.

There's always trap/futa, given the city she's in I wouldn't be surprised. But given the choice lesbian/threesome always applies to more people's tastes.

Edit: Be careful if you go full submissive, as of this patch it makes you stuck in an endless slave/sex route and you can't go outside or do anything else.

Maybe a down the road a roommate, girls get into the wine one night, something, something, something, scissoring and "holy shit I'm into girls!?"

@suo_mynona, the pace at which you're putting the updates out is very encouraging, keep at it - looking to be quite big in the new year!

Yes, this was planned to be an early bad ending to the game. I've plotted out a new side path that lets you have the option of recovering and getting back on the main path. That won't be in place until after 0.1.0. There will be more scenes before then as Alex gives her some unique experiences, but that path is locked at the moment.

If you see red text, save before proceeding.

It didn't add anything. I decided to not implement a "must pee" mini game as it didn't effect the plot. I'm playing with a morning wake up scene at max's apartment where that's a part of it. If you see just how many mirrors are in that bathroom you can see why it makes more sense to move it to that location... I'm happy to provide a potty fan service while moving the plot forward, just didn't make sense at the coffee shop with all the prostitution events that are planned.

Max's apartment is the main location of the potential romantic interest progression with max. That means catching each other using the toilet & bath, moves the sub-plot forward.
The 'must pee' mini-game at the cafe, along with the bathroom central to the plot at the cafe, would be a good opening for some watersports in a public use bathroom situation, which would be a great addition to her submission and corruption.

I noticed that if you choose the pet route, it's a forever situation (endless), is this how you intend that route, or will that also have more added later and a way out?

I know it's only very early stages, but It's a shame that if you choose to give a BJ, or use the safe word, you can't revisit those scenes.

I like where this game is heading so far. Keep up the good work!

Merry Christmas.

I too would love to see a lesbian romance path included. Some variation from all the males is nice :3

How do you do anything besides work at the coffee place? I have almost 2K cash. Max never asks for money.

That's as much content as there is in 0.0.4. Adventures with Max will continue in a future update. I put in a temporary stay there the night bit to hold you over. Everything beyond the initial tour will change as it's expanded.

From my Patreon page:

And the votes are in! Again, we have a three-way tie between additional coffee shop prostitution scenes, continued progression on the relationship with Alex, and adding the new location for Darren and his gang.
So the priority order for update 0.0.5's development is:

1) Alex relationship with scenes mainly focused at Alex's apartment.

2) Additional coffee shop prostitution scenes to add some flavor.

3) Darren's crib. This will consist of some introductory scenes as it will take several updates to Darren justice.

I have a poll active on my Patreon page for what content should get worked on for update 0.0.6. That poll will close when I finish development on 0.0.5.

hello, i like the game, emily is sexy and the concept is very interesting and not so common. looking forward to see more stuff. i think its great that you are trying to do many choices in the game, that is very rare in adult games which is mostly just "choice 1 progress choice 2 game over".

The game started off slowly with a nice slow tease. It improves with each update. It's becoming more like a slice of life as seen through a young woman's eyes of what it's like to be caught up in a world that isn't what you'd expect it to be. We all have (or had) dreams of what we thought the big wide world out there had to offer us. We all found out in one way or another that sometimes reality bites. I like the game for its storytelling and its honesty. This is what happens to so many who go chasing after California dreams. A few are lucky, while others are not. Thanks for making this game. It can only get better, and hopefully our heroine will end up with a chance to be one of the lucky ones. Good work!

The Alex & Darren content are the corruption paths. Oddly enough, that's what the polls are prioritizing :rolleyes:. Things will slow down and be more about storytelling as the other horizontal content like Bills bar is finished.

No worries, I don't plan on putting any post 0.1.0 content up for a poll until all the introductory content is complete. This means more paths will end in red text pausing like what happens in 0.0.4. Those will flag the multiple paths that lead into chapter 2 content.

I've seen other games give the "purity path" a short shift. I've planned out all the content for each chapter and while the polls prioritize what content gets created in a chapter, all gets created before I start the next chapter. All paths will get equal billing.

Any chance of a red haired option? I like her natural color but the blonde makes her look anorexic hehe.

I played it a little (.4 you sent me), my feedback:

- Pace: right now you can basically do eveything in one day (meet all characters, be a waitress then go for prostitution (or being forced to, since in my game I had no more options to be a waitress), visit all the places). I guess and hope it's temporary, what I'd expect is a much much longer time where she works as a waitress trying to make some money and find a place for herself. After a while then she can be able to earn the trust or attention of one of the secondary characters and open up new opportunities (or not). And so on, all filled up with variable events and player choices... The buildup should of course be there also when dealing with patrons of the cafè or the owner, she should be initially (automatically) scared of the more daring ones then eventually you can open up the choices you already placed in .4
- First person: now I understand why it's not so popular, it's not my cup of tea either but as I've said earlier I respect your decision to try out something new. A couple here and there can be nice, but the focus should be the 3rd person (for me)

Gl going forward ;)
