I am still enjoying the game. I don't understand the complaints about the lack of sex. He has banged everybody but his daughter (what a change from blue balls) and he has showered and ejaculated on her. Much faster paced than dating my daughter.
Not every girl if i remeber correct there is that hot chick with hat but maybe gone fuck her in later chapters.

But @Penfold Mole is correct in stating that they're also now obsolete as the free standalone versions have been released.

As one of those ignored Linux users, I can tell you that the web based versions aren't without their own problems. The Chrome version runs like garbage. The Firefox version also tends to have issues (opening animation doesn't load so the game won't start unless you hit ESC to skip it... which I discovered by accident in a fit of frustration), but is at least playable once you get over those hurdles. But none run as well as native versions, which are always preferable.

And just to note, almost all Ren'Py games come with native Linux support "out of the box". ;) And those that don't, for some odd reason, can almost always be easily patched by copying over the lib/ folder and launch script from a game that does and simply renaming the lib and launch script to the name of the game.

For us, who are used to being ignored by folks looking to only serve the "bigger market", we're generally happy for any support, even if it's not perfect. If we're running Linux, we're usually smart enough to work around the rough edges, or provide a bug report for a simple fix.

Humorously I was able to solve some of these games more easily BECAUSE of the garbage performance on Chrome when I was first forced to play the web version due to lack of native support. :p The game essentially ran in slow motion, so I was able to very easily dominate the arcade game, and the dishwasher puzzle, etc... (the dishwasher puzzle still took me until the last second, but all the other puzzles/games were finished with massive time to spare. I had to intentionally kill myself in the video game after awhile.)
I'm not ignoring Linux users. I use Linux by myself and I always help users who send me emails asking for help. I even did some tweaks in code to solve specific Ubuntu weirdos. If the game is running in "slow-motion" in Chrome for you, you probably already know you have a 3D acceleration driver issue so Chrome WebGL isn't fully operative. About the "hang" due to the intro video in Firefox: thanks for letting me know! I'll take a look at the code and see if I can improve it to avoid these kind of situations. I never experienced that problem by myself yet.

As for native version request for Linux: It is on my list, but only after the game is completed. I unfortunately don't have the time to take care of HTML5 + Windows + Mac + Linux builds at the same time.

I did 1-3 off line and 4&5 online. To do 6 offline do I need to replay 4&5 off line?
Is there a way to enter 4&5 saves from another source so I don’t have to replay for 2 hours? Not really computer savvy, but learning.

Not at the moment, but there is no need to waste two hours replaying them. You can use the "Skip" button to finish each chapter in a couple of minutes.

I like it, it is a slow burn story.
looking forward to more, is there an idea of how many chapters there will be when it is complete?
Also I saw asked prior, but never saw an answer.
When complete will it be released as one large file? or will there be an ability to play it as one game rather than individual ones?

Also, the HTML5 build can run in any operating system that supports Chrome or Firefox and WebGL, which means that Mac and Linux users can play. Is not like non-Windows users can't play the game at the moment.
I can confirm that the online version is performing perfectly in Firefox Quantum (v59.0.2) Canonical build and Google Chrome (v50.0.x) on an old PC with Intel i5-2400 CPU with integrated Intel HD Graphics 2000 controller and an old Kubuntu 14.04 LTS. Very smooth. Including the spash animation video in the beginning. No issues whatsoever.

In case anyone is experiencing choppy image or cursor movements or poor video perfomance, then there's something wrong with the graphics acceleration or browser. I mean, the graphics controller on the aforementioned PC is just a very basic office PC graphics controller with quite poor general perfomance. And the game is running smoothly on it.

I played this series yesterday the frst time. Now I need help.
1. Who has only the pictures? Or how can I decode it myself?
2. I cant play chapter 4. Although I played 1-3. Is there something to consider?
3. I saw there is a cheat input box, but where are the cheat passwords?

Krull shared CG links on pg 82 and 88. I'm not sure about how to extract them. Haven't tried myself.

For starters - did you play the online or offline version?
If you played online version, then make a backup after finishing a chapter (or even before that, but always after finishing one) and when you start a new chapter, try to import that backup if the game says that you haven't played it. Don't try to mix online and offline versions.
3. I saw there is a cheat input box, but where are the cheat passwords?
I haven't used any, don't know any. You can try to search this thread for them or check out Palmer's blog comments at love-joint.com

Thank you for your answer.

There's other player reporting something like this. It seems fullscreen is causing lag in some setups (it doesn't cause on my old 2012 Mac mini with 4GB of RAM and no GPU!). I'm investigating the causes and I'll release a fix if I find a solution.
Note: the other player that also has issues with this has an AMD GPU (R7 200), so I'm suspecting this fullscreen bug only hit AMD cards (or at least some old models).
I was going to say that the poor performance on here on Chrome may be related to this... as I have a Radeon 7970 (3GB vram) using the OSS drivers. But trying it again now it works fine. In the interim I updated from 17.10 to 18.04 and switched from Wayland back to X.org. Either one of those two changes may have had something to do with it.
Chrome is "Version 66.0.3359.117 (Official Build) (64-bit)"

Wayland was the default on 17.10 I think. (Experimental replacement for the X windowing system.) I might try switching back to that to see if I run into the performance issue again.

Firefox works fine, after skipping the frozen animation. I just checked chapter 1 again and the freeze is still there. Once you skip the frozen animation (hitting ESC), the game plays smoothly. (59.0.2 (64-bit) canonical build on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS)

See the above. Both are perfectly playable now outside of the freezing animation on Firefox (which you can get past by hitting ESC.) But there certainly was a very serious performance problem previously in Chrome. Not sure which changes are responsible for that resolving itself.

I can not play chapter 6, not online and not when I download it. I played the previous ones online so I have a backup data but it keeps saying that I do not have any. Does anyone know something to help me out?

So, what happens when you try to import backup from chapter 5 into chapter 6?

Make sure that you actually finish chapter 5 and right then make a backup.
Import that backup into the next chapter.
