[Maulis47]

Does anyone know when the full version is coming out? I usually don't like playing beta versions.

The 18th if I remember right, but you can check it on their subscribestar.

They just uploaded the hotfix for the spy camera bug and the fov/map camera bug if anyone can upload the patch for it?

Why can the MC's dad even get into his apartment? Does he have the keys, or are people just not locking the doors? Seems a bit odd that he could just walk in and wasn't stuck at the door knocking.

Bro what's with all the monkey-- business in this game?

He's paying the rent, presumably he has a key.

A great update that as always leaves you wanting more, I can't wait for the next "family" update

So... I've sequence broken the game and can't start school?
Or school just doesn't start I guess?

Found it, in the settings.json you have to set the boolean for uselocalsaves to true

Just came back to check the thread and I gotta say, Yeesh. It's a good thing CoconutBayBro warned me that these threads can get out of hand with nutjobs storming and saying wild shit. Hopefully things get to normal at Monday.

People whining here complaining about Breadman being a slow dev have clearly never been let down by the man himself Dr. Bones fr fr. The manor aint even done and I already finished both college and got a medicine degree.

Why the updates feel off to some people is Breadman is putting a lot of energy into the individual animation and slideshow scenes. Compare the early scenes with Susy (clothing store girl). On a technical level they're basic.

Then look at the Brandy scene in this update. There's not only more frames, but there's tons more animation. Both characters are moving more, there's more drawings making up the animated puppet style, there's tons of secondary animation (shaking bed frames, more jiggle and bounce), more facial animation, the angles are more advanced, and the fluid special effect animation is way more complicated. There's way more still frames for scenes as well. 770+ new still images, all finalized, full color images. That's several finished illustrations a day, over 8 months. You can't compare that productivity to something Summertime Saga, where you get a few drawings a month, maybe.

That's where the effort is going. Breadman is putting tons of emphasis on the quality of each scene. I think people just want to see the vaginal sex with the main LIs and consider anything less as "stringing people along". Could there be some other stuff besides blowjobs? Yeah, I suppose, but I think that's what BM likes in his product, just like if someone has a foot fetish vs anal or whatever.

This is a good observation. The quality and quantity of art is top notch but it also has diminishing returns imo. Like so much of it is just one-off, shown in one specific scene. How much time is it worth it to spend on art that gets shown only for like a few seconds? I know it's hard to change an artist's creative vision and doubt that they ever even read this post but something I've been thinking.

Dang, was hoping for more with Cass, she seemingly had the least amount of stuff in her route. That means waiting until 7.5.

They said 1 of the family girls will have less content per family update, and they'll rotate through them. Or is it 1 of the 3 not including the mom? something like that. anyways it was probably Cass's turn

 

[dany ouellet]

mmh its weird to me that its the first cassie blowjob outside the gym for brandy event..but she act as if its almost an everyday thing.. maybe the timing or trigger might need to change later to need cassie to be farther down the line of her quest

 

[Unwatched]

Well this is suprising. I thought the game was dead xD

The main problem is the time & energy it takes to make this might result in burn out. Biannual updates that consist of 2-3 story beats per main love interest is a glacial pace for normal game development. This is a visual novel stapled onto the RPGMaker engine that's been in development for 3 years, and the recollection room is only half full.

Its gameplay is half-baked at best, and the world is generally dull and empty outside of the various character driven quests. There's no real gameplay that justifies an open world setting, when it's easier to just jump, Ren'Py style, from location to location. It's a weird choice to use RPGMaker and pour time and energy creating the world and populating it with NPCs, when there's no mechanics to engage with.

This update, while really nice, is a warning sign to me. By year 4 a game like this should be wrapping up its main storylines. Given the trajectory of the story, there's no greater tension point than him and Leslie- every side story is going to feel a lot lower stakes than that one. Once it's resolved, it's pretty easy to assume there's no woman Jon can't seduce. It's very easy to write an ultimate showdown between him and the main antagonist and wrap the whole project up. That way, if the creators grow sick of it, they can put it down and use their built-up fan base to fuel their next project.

I swear, Western adult game devs don't seem to get that they in fact build fanbases that will follow them from project to project. There's no need to stretch things out for most of a decade. Japanese porn devs get it, IDK why Western devs don't.

Playing V 6.5. And I have run into a game breaking glitch I cant get past.

The scene in issue is where Brandy takes you home from History Class. Specifically the scene on the map right before she takes you home and her mother almost catches you. The world map of several parts merge into one and makes it impossible to see where your character is on the map from then on. I have been able to progress a little bit through some more scenes by knowing where the markers are blindfolded, until you shortly get to a "find the item" quest which becomes impossible.

Yeah, I've started twice now and once the freeroam starts, I can go around town and meet people, but I can never go to school. I've played through an entire week, nothing happened. Skipped another week, nothing happened.

I've played this before and finished the game. What is going on?

Insane update.
