NaughtyCatEnt. I said id before and I say it again the girls/renders in the OP look really good but as of now, I haven't played the game because it is missing all my favorite tags so my question will you add more tags and if so what tags?

I'm especially interested if you plan to add a harem tag because the game is tagged as KN but we see 5 girls in the banner.

from what I read in your signature I would say here there is only 1 tag that you will like...others...not so much I think...maybe one of the characters that we will get to have lewd scenes might be ...doubt it but maybe ...might be a virgin....so that would be 2 tags..

Hello HansDampf788 According to the forum rules devs can't use the tags for the events that haven't happened yet, hence I can not use the tags that "Dim the lights" will provide in future according to the storyline. I'll definitely add more tags when it's the right time but I don't want to talk about them as of yet.

The stroyline will provide you enough content for the tags you like, I can tell you that :) 3 out of 5 for sure, probably it'll be 4 out of 5 in future. You and the storyline are paralel to eachother for the tags "don't like and hate" on your sig. None of them will exist in this game. I can tell you that much... Thank you.

You can put them in the genre spoiler under "planned tags/kinks" (y)

Changes with Episode 3:

- Ren'py engine updated from 7.4.2 to 7.4.4.

- 32bit game build has been removed from the project. No more 32bit launcher .exe that causes problems with some antivirus softwares

- Android version of the game released.

- MC name change code implemented.

- Now on every new episode of the game will include all the older episodes in it starting from the beginning.

- Game textbox texture has been changed to a better, transparent texture that doesn't disrupt the esthetics of the scenes.

Important: Your old save files won't work with this new build. You will have to start playing the game from the beginning only for this time. With the newer episodes you will be able to continue wherever you stop playing the game.

If you enjoy the game, please support it on

Happy weekends!

Did enjoy playing this game (Episodes 1 and 2) but now unable to play episode 3 as there no 32Bit launcher. Had no problem downloading previous versions and received no virus warnings.
If I can no longer play this then it will probably end up in trash game list.
I have included "traceback"

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Unofficial Android Port for :- Dim The Lights ep4



ALLOW STORAGE ACCESS
My Android Ports have a 2nd Persistent save location. So, even if you uninstall the game, the saves will remain Intact.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Textsize, opacity slider added
Rename from menu option added

If it says unknown developer or something like that just press install anyway.

Give Me Your Feedback on the Discord Server. As it's easier to reach me there, than here.

I understand your frustration MikeyUK and I'm sorry for that. I'll build 3rd episode for both 32&64bit systems and keep it of the front page. I just don't want to hear more about false antivirus alarms, I'm fed up with them. I'll make a post about it once I am done. Keep following the thread.

Thank you very much. I look forward to the 32bit version.

Dim the Lights [Ep.3 v1.0] 32Bit & 64Bit Build

This build contains 32bit and 64bit launchers in it. The main reason for me to move on to Ren'Py 7.4.4 from 7.4.2 is the false positive alarms that 32bit launcher .exe causes with a few antivirus softwares and with windows defender. I received a lot of messages about it.
With this latest version of renpy, 32bit launcher still has 2 threats on the scan results of . That's exactly the reason why I took 32bit launcher out of the project.

For the VN fans those have 32bit systems, you can use the download links below for the 32bit version of the game.

Win/Linux:
Mac :

More download links will be added later on.
