Very interesting, will definitely keep an eye on this.

I do have a minor suggestion, which iirc is fairly straightforward in unity: manual framerate cap or 1/2 or 1/4 vsync.

Certainly not a deal breaker but changing my refresh rate each time so vsync doesn't have a game that gets little value from frames over 60 heating up my GPU to reach quadruple that is no fun.
So you want to have an extra option for fps limiter? Am I understanding you right?

Didn't I see a poll on your patreon regarding which cathegory of characters to add next? And fembois won, niiiice :D
Actually, girls have been won! But, yes, femboys with elves definitely must be among them ))
However, there will be a filter to easily select the character types you want to meet or not in the runs.

Aaah my bad. Yes I saw girls won, for some reason I assumed that was moot since there's already girls in game (lots of them) and I misread it as NEW cathegory of characters, that's on me.
Well fingers crossed we'll get fembois eventually, one can hope right? Cheers

Yes, either an FPS limiter or a choice between Vsync/halfVsync/QuarterVsync

Thanks for the quick reply (y)
Actually, V-Sync is not the same thing as a frame rate limiter.
V-sync limits the FPS to your monitor's refresh rate, while a frame rate limiter caps the FPS to a specific value.

Anyway, I will implement it nearest time, thanks for the idea.

Can't seem to find any info on patreon as to when the test-build trickles fown to "explorer" tier.. do you have a plan for the timeframe between tiers? Thank you
Early builds currently available to Pioneers only.
I have plans to extend it to other tiers with some timeline logic, but a little bit later.

Before releasing a demo, I maintained the dev thread here
Do you think I should continue to run it there, or post all the dev process related content / updates here?

I see. I think It's a bit of a shallow way to do it. It'll feel more like a game with erotic content pinned to it instead of an erotic game by itself. That said, I understand that most erotic/porn games do it this way and you might even choose to do it as a design decision. After all, It's hard to incorporate and blend erotic content meaningfully into the gameplay.

I think AA2 does it well. It's a sandbox game but the challenge comes in figuring out different character archetypes and getting them to like the player character and even once you do get to the sex scene, there's still mechanics like sexual compatibility as well as unlocking new positions. The game also doesn't end then and the character you romanced acts differently after and keeps acting differently the more sexual interactions you have. They may even influence other characters in different ways (deter them from socializing with you if they're jealous or try to get them into a threesome with you if they like them, etc.)My point is the nsfw content is meaningfully incorporated into the game flow whereas your current proposition (at least how I understood it) seems somewhat meaningless. A typical "win state/fail state" reward mechanic.

Perhaps you want the erotic content to take a backseat to your game which is up to you at the end of the day but it does feel like a half decision to me and I personally won't appreciate it as much. That said, it's something to think about. Hope you make a game as great as you want it to be!

I know that the most popular genre is visual novels here, and I'm completely ok with that, but my game is just in a completely different genre. This is adult arcade simulator with the roguelike rules, having almost nothing common with the visual novel. So, I think it would be a mistake to consider/expect the game as VN. munstre sorry if I understand you wrong.

Omg It took me all day to release an update everywhere.
Someone get me out of this rut I love developing games, but not uploading them all day long.
