The big problem with this game is the developer, who doesn't pay enough attention to the image selection.
In one scene, for example, the hairstyle changes four times, the headdress three times, the dress color three times, and the outfit style three times. Added to that are the exposed breasts, covered breasts, different breast sizes, and different filters used, so that the otherwise good quality of the images still leads to quite different results. Often, you think the game should be called Celina and Her Three Sisters.

To make matters worse, there's a time-consuming bug that causes the end of the version to come as too much of a surprise. You go one step too far, get a message that the version has ended, and can no longer save. Since there's no autosave function at the start of the day or during your sleep cycle, you have to repeat everything from your last save and remember where not to go too far.

The fact that the new version doesn't access old save files during installation is equally inconvenient.
Only when I manually overwrote the old files with the new files was I able to access older save files. Since the game is currently still very linear, you can of course use the cheat buttons to jump to the desired chapter. However, if there were opportunities to grind a little more, for example, to earn more money, such changes would simply be ignored, and you would have been grinding unnecessarily.

Dev should include a save game at the start of each update.

Anybody got a Save for 2.1 or even act 2 ? I think i deleted all of mines :(
save files pls?

When you start the game, a question pops up asking whether you want to play the prologue or not.
Once you land on the map, there are three levers immediately to the left that will take you to different sections of the game. Therefore, an included save file would hardly be necessary, as you only have to repeat one scene before accessing new content.

That is not a dev problem - that is a generic AI problem. That is why MilaAI is most time naked in the game and has a simple graphic style compared to Celina's Calling. Even if you use picture to video you have a text prompt you will need, too. And the problem is when you run the same text prompt with the same picture ten times you get ten different results. If the dev hadn't used the methods to get a consistent character you wouldn't even see the same face from scene to scene. And you can be as exact as you want, the AI will always change something in the result, like making a ponytail thicker or thinner or changing the style of a dress. There are AI's that are better at that, but a) those are not free and b) need hardware in the range of 100k$ and even then you need a few tries to get a result you like. For example videos with free AI models like WAN2 are limited to about 4s(10s with tricks). The WAN2 AI is able to do longer videos with a higher resolution, but that functionality is not included in the free version....

AI realistic animation. I am in. I don't know why people don't like AI videos but I like them because they're Improving in exponential rate. When I generate AI videos using the same prompt every hour the new video it gets better than the last, I am using Veo3, Honesty it's scary. It's like in the near future, every video, movies, games. will be made by AI. Many People at hollywood will loose their jobs

The AI can only generate what the settings specify, and with a wide range. That's why I'm criticizing the developer's selection. Maybe they're just using the first image they create, maybe they're choosing the best of 10, and maybe they should just generate 10 more to hope for a more optimal result.

What's currently being offered here is definitely better than uploading random scene snippets from various porn sites that have absolutely no connection.

My review of the game is still at four stars. The fifth is missing because, in my opinion, there's not enough care in the image selection.

.....
It's not an image, it is a video and each 4s video takes about an hour on my PC for a 420p video - doing 10 test versions is much time for doing it as a hobby.... I don't know how fast the queue for the dev is.

Mercedes, I normally generate 100+ images before consolidating on 1 that goes into the game. Then it also needs to animate well (some of my favorite images, sadly, turn out horribly when trying to animate). I normally make 10+ videos before consolidating on 1 assuming the image animates okay.

It takes me 10 minutes to generate a batch of 20 images and it takes ~20-25 minutes to make a 6 second video. You can do the math to determine how much time things take.

Would it be possible to properly loop the animations? Maybe an unpopular opinion but as far as I'm concerned the game would be better off without animations, if they are not properly looping. If you want to have "dick insert" animations then splitting them off into "insert" and "looping" would be fine.

I've played around with this some. I didn't have much luck getting my I2V (image to video) workflow creating looped videos. Which meant I had to loop it a different way (video editor that would play the video forward once, then backwards once - creating a loop).

It worked okay and I've used it in some of my animations (refer to the Act 2 Screen animation). Ultimately, I decided that 6-12 second videos that play back from the beginning are good enough.

If you put so much work into it, I'm a little sorry for the criticism, but please understand my point.
If you scroll through your image file, for example (it's easier to name the images now than to search for the scene in the game and take a screenshot), you'll find image number 12 in the intro folder. Actually, it's the first one where she's completely topless. There, Celina already shows off a respectable DD or even E cup.
Immediately afterward, in her interaction with Orun, it shrinks to a pretty D cup (intro image 14), while in the BJ scene in Gideon's playroom, Celina suddenly appears with monstrous breasts and fifteen cup sizes larger (Act 2 image 55).

Its a fair criticism, I do my best to keep some level of consistency and wish I could improve it even more but I also don't want to significantly hold up progress waiting for that 1 in a thousand image that is completely consistent and without other flaws (bad fingers, doesn't fit medieval fantasy, low quality, etc).
