Played twice and lost both times paying rent and salary the second time. Is there a balance issue or am I supposed to find a way to squeak by eating only ramen and dying from a stress induced heart attack?
Balance issues in a first release alpha wouldn't exactly be a huge surprise.
It's html though, probably twine, so it should be easy to cheat the hell out of it if necessary.

Just focus entirely on stress and making money until you're ahead of the curve. You'll do fine. It doesn't take long to get your engine going and then you can really enjoy the other elements.

Really amazing start here. I'll be watching this with interest.

Thanks buddy!! Yeah, I recommend taking a few game days to get a financial footing. The two biggest boosts to your income are training Stacy's professionalism and getting perks (you can surmise how to get them from the stats screen)

over 400 charisma = average joe?!
I had to leave room for growth!

it's crap
Thank you for keeping me grounded

Seems like an amazing first alpha build! Seriously, well designed, good writing, engaging story. I'm looking forward to more updates from you. A small request though: as with every real porn game on here, it'd be great if there was a list of the models/pornstars you use, either in the credits page in game, or even in a text document in the game files. So, uh, I can do some research if anyone catches my eye.

E: Just to be clear, I'm only talking about the "named" characters here, not like the randomized gifs you use for the casting system. God help anyone trying to find a source/name for some of those gifs, which have been kicking around the internet for... Decades?

I noticed that Stacy still call you Hans even though the name changed. Apart from that I don't think there's other problems regarding typo.

Right off the bat, I noticed how changing your dietary plan does not change how much stress you lose after sleeping. You still lose the selected plan's money, but the stress seems to be decreased by 10 even with ramen diet.

Otherwise this kind of feels like a new game, considering how most HTML-based games on this site usually are.

Bravo... For a a first release alpha this has all the boxes ricked. A lot of content good UI a coherent plot, a great end point. its 5*.

I would second the point made by somebody above the intro does seem a bit jarring when it jumps forward in time. I think you just need to add some dialog to sate there has been a jump in time or a "15 years later..." slide. It does seem a bit weak on the intro, you go from nothing to owning a business without much of an explanation, but then fuck it I'm never going to play that part again.

Right click the image and it will give the location of the image then just upload it to an image search engine. Like google or Yandex (yandex is great form porn) and change the parent filter.

Both google and yandex have chrome apps, if you install them you can just right click the image and search for it directly from within the game.

Haven't had a chance to play yet, but from looking in the html file the cheatzone password is "f1rst" without the quotation marks.

What's the point in selling a password on Patreon when you put it right in the file in plaintext?

It's built with SugarCube anyway so I seriously doubt there's anything in that cheatzone you couldn't just do with the console.
Then again these are hard times and I can't blame the dev for trying to get a few extra pledges with some QoL options.
