Holy cow does this game really expect you to memorize all of the details for your entire class after one day? Or am I supposed to create a classmate personality matrix and fill it out during the introductions?
Honestly if you miss some details, especially for the first class, its not that big a deal. I just want players to get used to the idea that information is an important commodity for a con man. It also helps you get to know the characters better. There won't be a situation where you totally fail the game because you remembered a little detail wrong.

Really, its more of a VN than a game. Like you can't really "lose" when reading a book. So you may get a different story if you remember something wrong and that leads you to make a choice based on misinformation. But you won't "lose" because of it. I hope that makes sense. Thanks for playing!

I play on the web but they are not up to date so I don't know who are the new characters. Fucking Brooke after teaching the first class is as far as it goes but how would one possibly get a pornstars added? Is there like a voting system for a character e.g I have created a character called Ruby Myers and would like you to vote for who she is portrayed by out of the following Abigail Mac, Gina Gerson, Alix Lynx or Lana Rhodes or is it by request or just dev choice?
The newest version is on gamcore if you want to play it there. As for adding characters, the main cast is set and will not be changed. I may be open to adding specific guest stars later at the request of high-tier Patrons, we'll see ;)

So we have the faculty we met and are specific students is that all the main cast as the Asian girl was a guest because I thought we would council are students and also some students not in are class who would be main characters? You are correct about gamcore when I played it the website said 1.2 and I hadn't played previously but it wasn't included but when I checked again after commenting here it was there.

There will be some more guest stars for counseling and other smaller encounters. They won't be main characters. The main characters are the women you met in chapter one and the eight students in your class.

Easily the most enjoyable thing about this game besides its excellent writing is the user comfort. The standard text makes my eyes bleed over time, which is why I enjoy College Daze but the eye strain gets really bad in just an hour or less. This one though, I was able to enjoy the whole thing (takes about an hour or two?) without feeling strained at all. That alone is worth all the support it needs!

It's absolutely a VN. There's no actual game here. There's no game loop, no rules or interactions or ability to change the game state. It's a Choose Your Own Adventure like VN. Not that there's anything wrong with that of course but it's worth pointing out.

That's not a criticism, just an observation. You might want to stick it under the VN tag to alert a wider audience.

Be honest - has all the praise started to cross over from being encouraging, to crushing you under the weight of it?

I feel like I should say something bad about the game just to take the pressure off. I don't know, I didn't like the "squirting" scene I guess? I don't really have much. It's a really great start, already with some very hot action and teasing much more. I feel like you're just going to have to live with the crushing expectations. No one to blame but yourself.

Well people shouldn't praise me too much cause I missed a bug in the last update that broke everyone's saves :confused: That feels bad. But it is nice to know that people enjoy the game. That sounds corny, but I enjoy dirty games...and now people have been enjoying MY dirty game. Like my very own dirty game straight from my dirty mind. That feels good. It all balances out. I'm glad you like the game, and I really liked your review ;)

At least your game is like a VN, on mine, I don't have bugs, I have complex ecosystems of errors and game breaking bugs :ROFLMAO:

And that's why you have now lots of people following your game.

Tried it and really enjoyed it. Like that both "paths" have good content (did not try mixed playthrough yet). And not just that there is content but it is well written and good real porn. So all in all great work.

About the "questions" in the end. As far as I saw it it was always one true and one false statement. I think this is fair and not "too hard" to keep track of. But maybe just make a caution before the first lesson so that people pay more attention. The only mechanic that I am not quite sure are the three stats of the students. It is a bit tedious to keep track of them, their consequences and how choices will affect them (at least in my opinion).

great game, a little short so far, but man this has potential, please don't rush releases and give future releases the same care of character development and fleshing out the back story cause this has a lot of potential and I will be following this with great interest

Very much so, so much so actually that if you ever need help with proof-reading and making sure there's no typos or grammatical mistakes, I'd be happy to volunteer my time to help with your future releases. I just love the idea of actually paying attention to the story that you have in mind with the note section and the possibility that you could have bad scenes if you have incorrect information, like that's just a phenomenal concept and helps the reader really get immersed into the overall story

Hey I'm glad you enjoyed the student files notes thing. It gives you a break from the wanking. I don't want people injuring their dicks. As for the proofreading offer, I really appreciate it, but proofreading this game is kinda tough, since you have to proofread each path. I don't pre script anything, I write directly in Twine, so it has a bunch of code and stuff around the dialogue. I also like to proofread it myself, because I often use the read throughs to find ways to improve scenes, and I can catch myself if I'm making a mistake with the narrative, cause I know what I'm planning for the story and characters.

And I'd be shafting my Patrons by giving someone earlier access to updates...after all, they are supporting me. I'd feel bad. Hope you understand ;)

I still don't know how to write a review for a game but i'm more than excited to see this game flourish. It's has the option to choose between a good guy and bad guy path (of course i prefer the darker way), great humiliation paths and is written very good.
Whale_Shark is it your first project? Did you ever write some stories before? Can we find some more of your previous projects?
