I feel this game needs serious pruning due to massive amount of subtle branching happening here & there. Walking past lot of vague choices into dead ends without even experiencing some of the newer scenes. It's basically the Marvel effect; Too much branching off the main timeline into dead ends instead of following a parallel progression that eventually will merge back into the main body.

Like digging through a spaghetti bowl trying to find the deets, I feel the overall design is gonna be very frustrating to accommodate in the future.

Man... Eva is hardly any love. Mom gets content... Des gets content... Eva? More or less nothing... I am saddened by this.

Also, at this point, I will offer my services to be proofreader. I have a headache just reading most of the damn text to be honest.

So right now there should only be 3 endings.
1 if Eva is living with you and you go to the party with the mom.
2 after the model session with des
3 outside with Ms. Harper
If it is ending somewhere else for you please let me know because it shouldn't do that and I need to fix it.

Tried many time but i never got eva to live with vivian. how do you get that ending? Having a WT mod would really help a lot and make the game more enjoyable (my personal opinion).
Help evaline cheat.
Bluff or tell Harper to fuck off
Asking if evaline is okay living like that
Ask her to live with you.

I'm lost with this new update. How do you achieve the new Eva scenes? Is there a path where Viv move out from home to live with Eva? How do you get it?

You have to reject your mother’s relationship the day after the party in home or the hotel.
Then Vivian get options move out to Des dorm or Eva dorm.

But at first before you get Eva options, you must help her otherwise Vivian move out automatically to Des Dorm.

In Guide:

Vivian moves to Eva or Des dorm:
-Vivian doesn’t go to parties and mom only at home////Vivian goes to parties with her mother only(For now with 0.42)
-No, she's drunk/She's my mom(In the home) //// Stop(In the party)
-This is wrong. I don't want this(In the home)
-Player can choice between Des or Eva For eva choices, Viv must help her, otherwise Viv move to Des only.

-----

But I start updated Guide when the new updates comes.

While I really like the idea of this game, a female protag going full lesbian and being given a choice in all her sexual encounters, the eyes on the MC and the mass of typos are a bit distracting. I just got to the scene where the MC gets her hair done by the paranormal lass and must have seen a hundred typos already. At least the syntax seems fine.

Don't suppose someone could update the walkthrough with character specific paths? Or I could just run through till I hit something new I guess, thank god for the skip option in these games.

I can't wait to get more Harper as well, I went down the dom training path with her compared to the sub, should be more interesting that way IMO.

Same here. The Harper story, of training to be a domme or sub, is going to be awesome. Looking forward to maybe seeing our MC dominate the ladies around her.

My MC did try to dom Evaline(she saw it was her first time though), she chose to say she would be spanking her mom but she did not act like a dom with her, she did however go full on mild dom with Des after sitting for the painting.

I will repeat what I said earlier, like the idea behind this game and the execution so far(no forced content is a major plus for me, hate non-consent in a game) but there are far too many spelling errors. Sometimes multiple ones in a single sentence. The dev seriously needs a copy editor.

I notice the errors to but we're pretty far from a complete and final game. Those can be worked out later on when the devs close to finished with the game. Or someone could offer to proof read the script so far if they have the time.

Welcome to the club pal ;)

But this maybe can help you or at least show how you can reach certain scene or paths.
Eva is mysterious one but as far as I know you must avoid sex with her if you want the romance path.

Which I think makes sense because Eva thinks everyone just wants to sleep with her.

Edit:
"I have also started going back and redoing the art for earlier scenes, "
I noticed and when Vivian meet Eva for the first time, the music has changed.

Edit2:
Did the previous version have this problem:


The text overlap?
