This game has a great story telling, better than most of the other games. At first I skipped the story casually reading a few sentences here and there, thinking "yet another h-game with poorly written, bloated story". Than I noticed it was written actually pretty good and concise. Just the right amount of text with quality. Than started over again and I actually liked it very much.

I prefer games having game-play elements rather just choices, so that's another plus. Although UI is somewhat unconventional and clunky, at least game-play wise it has depth which I find more valuable than shallow but pretty games.

I've yet to play that much but those were my first impressions. I hope this game gets more content.

I was enjoying this game quite a bit, but then it suddenly stopped working. I was on loop 3, and made a save so I could close the game for the night. Afterwards, the screen kind of froze but I wasn't concerned because I had just made a save. But now the .exe crashes on startup. Other Java programs work fine. Rebooting my computer, and reinstalling the Java Runtime Environment did not fix it. It is an issue with the Corrupted Saviors .exe and .jar in particular. Un-zipping it again and running it fresh did not work either. I'm on windows 10. It was working fine until it just suddenly wasn't.

I don't know how to troubleshoot this. Until then, I can't play the game any more.

Kinda lost at what to do. I got the 5 "top" upgrades. I've done just barely enough to unlock each from their respective characters for finance, wetwork, academics. Found out how to get academics to give decent xp (Hashimoto -> self destructive + keycard -> impersonate scientist) and got ~14 vitality / ~10 focus / 6 academics by day90, but there's not much time to do anything else. Perhaps how do i get to metropolis is the question? Not sure

Try renaming the 'currentSave.sav' file in your 'saves' folder and see if you can start the game. It might be crashing while trying to load a bugged save. I experienced something similar.

Managed to reach Tanaka on Loop 7, Day 96 - probably could have been able to do it a loop sooner, as Loop 6 ended with getting the finances for the plane ticket on the literal last action (whoops) and I'd had a prior loop where I just wanted to see how much meaning you got doing nothing but daydreaming, so probably could have squeezed another upgrade out otherwise. But still, seems not bad. Game seems interesting, always appreciated the more story-based loop games, so will keep an eye on this.

You have to do the "Meet the fixer" action in the nightclub and then follow Jackal's goals. Eventually you will unlock the "Work Together" evening action, that's the key to getting to metropolis at your current progression.

So I think I found a bug, I talk to Heilig, she says she wants to do the endurance testing, the game says I unlock the option but when I go to the tower it isn't there.

Just finished my first loop the other night. Now I'm trying to make my early section more optimized, what do people recommend focusing on in the first 40ish days

So, who else is idly grinding Meaning of Life while anxiously twiddling their thumbs waiting for more content? My current setup where I try to make use of ostentatious clothes is 393 Meaning of Life per loop. I pick up every available achievement, but maybe there's a higher value path that forgoes some to push Dreamer/Beloved/Polymath higher instead? I've never been much for micromanagement optimization.

I think for default action choice there should be some sort of hybrid daily/weekly where it takes the last weekday/weekend (so last Friday on Monday and last Sunday on Saturday) and also some variant of Looply where it only copies the actions, but not stance, diet and equipment. Also would be nice if it applied as soon as you change the setting (so changing the current routines to what was last day/week/loop)
Otherwise I've enjoyed the game a lot, can't wait for more content.

Focusing fully on Hashimoto and Yumeno seems like a safe bet, finances take too long without some focus and charisma has minimal progress until mid-late loop (Tanaka's unlocks also seem pointess for now, only useful for getting Tanaka's own relationship feat). Meanwhile focus and vitality will help with everything.

I regret not spending my first ten loops on pure daydreaming.

You could probably do some pretty crazy stuff by focusing on academics, focus, and game dev. Don't have the MoL to test that however

EDIT: Pulled 411 MoL with 16k invested. 50 from game dev was nice, as well as an extra 15 for 30 finances. Didn't end up getting the truthseeker chevio and I think the time spent with the lock pick equipped instead of the clothes while attempting to get it really hurt me in the long run. Self reminder to remove all the wetwork upgrades.

After a decent bit of grinding (level 20 focus upgrade, level 15 adrenaline, level 15 impatience, level 20 athletics, everything else a bit lower), I found what you get for completing the 100k stand guard goal:

Congrats! This action is definitely getting a rework for Release 2, though. I originally added it before I was sure how the Instinct achievement would work and just ended up leaving it in, so the action is pretty underwhelming in both its difficulty and its reward. Most likely, the final version won't take so long to unlock, and it'll also unlock a similar action in the Metropolis (due to your reputation proceeding you).
This game has a great story telling, better than most of the other games.

I'm happy that it was able to win you over!
Can we play pure lesbian and make a harem
Pure lesbian: Not yet, but very soon. Scenes for female protagonists with female love interests are planned for R1g (which will come out for patrons in about a month and for public release a couple of weeks after that).

Make a harem: A bit further off. Because there are so many possible combinations, harem routes are going to be added on a "when there's notable popular demand" basis. Right now, too many heroines are still waiting to even get their first scene, so it's too early to start thinking about scene branches.

If you send me your currentSave.sav file, I can diagnose it and probably fix it.

Nicely done! In a future release, I plan on adding an interactive "hall of fame" feature which will let people see how other players played the game. If you send me your currentSave.sav file, I'd be happy to include you in it!
So I think I found a bug, I talk to Heilig, she says she wants to do the endurance testing, the game says I unlock the option but when I go to the tower it isn't there.
It's in the evening slot only, if you're looking elsewhere.
Yes, Cryomaniac is correct, but if Heilig's action still isn't showing up in that slot, I can look at your currentSave.sav file to see if there's a bug.
I think for default action choice there should be some sort of hybrid daily/weekly where it takes the last weekday/weekend (so last Friday on Monday and last Sunday on Saturday) and also some variant of Looply where it only copies the actions, but not stance, diet and equipment. Also would be nice if it applied as soon as you change the setting (so changing the current routines to what was last day/week/loop)

Meanwhile focus and vitality will help with everything.
Because different players have different ideas about what should and shouldn't carry over, I'm hesitant to go too far into adding hybrid schedule settings. But your suggestion regarding having the game immediately apply the new schedule when you change the setting is a very good one! I'll make a note to add it to the next release.
For those curious, I'm fairly certain I've decoded the scrambled message that appears on the upgrade screen between loops. Nothing crazy, probably a hint to the late-game plot/explanation of the loops.

As the player gets more Meaning of Life, it becomes less and less likely for each letter to be scrambled. So, I'm not surprised that you're the one who found this. Incidentally, the background image also becomes clearer as you complete more story arcs (although as of Release 1, the only story arc that can be cleared is reuniting with Tanaka, so there are only two states).

The best I have been able to do is this so far. 564 MoL. My runs usually involve getting Tanaka to lv 3 to make levelling charisma a bit faster before the kidnapping and then farming academics/relationships using ostentatious clothes. Polymath/Beloved are definitely hard carrying my MoL generation. Probably someone better than me at micromanagement could do a lot more with this than me. My run is probably not optimized all that well, carried simply by the sheer amount of grinding I've done xD...
Although progress has been slow. I am at a point where even the cheapest upgrade (aside from the wetworks one which I haven't touched at all for self-destructive chance) costs more than 6k. At this rate it takes like 12 loops just for 1 upgrade, and it's only going to take longer.
