Did the MC have his way already with Dr. Amana ? She is the only character that I like in this game

O my, i feel great potential in this one. The only thing concerning for now is the lack of progress. The first release was almost a year ago and it still looks like a demo.

It's a great idea imo, there is far too little of this kinda content of any quality. From what i've seen, there is a pretty big market for transgender content and similar diverse things. But like other have said, it's a touchy subject, so expect backlash and some hate. No matter if it's completely optional. Someone gonna be mad (or afraid) about it's existence in the game regardless. I've seen it many times in multiple threads on this forum. Just like crusade wars about NTR. By the way, i'm also interested if we can actually prevent Emily cheating on us later by not acting like an asshole now and actively romantically pursuing her.
About update, i liked the scene. Some cool new options with ability to actually reject her, and good animations quality. I do very much enjoy Monica, her great body and direct personality. Sharice is quite beautiful too, hopefully we will see her again sometime.
No, i think her content will be much later. If it's even planned, which as far as i remember dev not sure about.

Potential is there, Cassie is in my opinion money in the bank. She reminds me of the daughter in "Teachers Pets" which is a good thing. I'm not so sure about the "kill switch", I don't know how the story with Cassie should work without Emily. I also don't think, that you should split up the trio of Amanda, Jane, and Cassie.
Some questions remain: Why does the socially awkward teen, that is afraid of sticking out got pink hair? What is the deal with Dr. Amana? You used her name for the title, but she is not on the banner and you did not state her as a love interest. I assumed she would be the leading female role, at best she is now a support character who could be replaced by a diary (to pull of the narration style)
I do like this one and would support you on Patreon, however, five USD is too much on the rich side for me. So I will wait and see where this one is going.

Yes, i think 1.0.2 was a bugfix or something like that.
Don't think she's gonna be in leading female role. More like a side spin off side story if even that (can be just playing "diary" or "dev" role). She's very different from the others after all, since she's "new" and actually "here". Unlike other girls and events, which is past. The title makes perfect sense, but it doesn't mean her involvement to the story and Mr. Harrington. Also remember, that there is gonna be more parts of this series, and more patients. So yeah, could be franchise name like @Bagger288 said.

Maybe she's a weeaboo or something. I almost mentioned it as well, but then I decided that from what I remember, the socially awkward teens do tend to stick out in limited ways, too.
As I recall it, the original idea was to have Dr. Amana be the franchise name, so that they could do "Amana analyzes Griff the Plumber" or whatever for their next game.
When we've finished this game we'll have to write one together.
penedeyewink: I like your prose and the cut of your jib!I might check it out if time ever permits. I'm so backlogged on game recommendations and the trans thing isn't really even my thing. But I'm a feet in the fire kind of guy. I like a challenge, and I think writing a trans scene would be a huge challenge. I'll either do it spectacularly well or fail miserably. The upside is that the only people who would see are those who enjoy that particular fetish and they can give me the most honest feed back on the quality of my work. Everyone else will sail right past that harbor and not even know it is there.
A priority is that the game feel seamless no matter what options are active. So if you have NTR on, Trans off, and pregnancy on, your playthrough should feel just as complete as the guy who turns them all on or the guy who turns them all off.
We never want a play through to feel like you're "missing" scenes because you turned off a particular fetish. That is why we are compartmentalizing everything in 'alternate' scenes. So that you still get the story drive content and a sexual encounter, but it will be one that jives with your kink preferences.
I know it sounds ambitious, but from a writing and coding perspective, it's really not. We're talking about fifty alternative lines of dialogue and maybe twenty additional renders and an animation or two. It's not a tall order.
The way the choices are designed, if you are selecting the Blue options, she will dominate you. If you choose the red options, she will submit to you. Hope this helps.
Absolutely, right up until the end when things may or may not implode.
We want our game to be like an ice cream bar. We're offering up pure vanilla to everyone who wants it. It's delicious ice cream that we think a lot of people will enjoy. But for those who want to add a few toppings to enhance the flavor, we have this options bar over here for you.
It started with the pregnancy thing. Someone mentioned it, we thought it was a great idea that could include a lot of drama in the story. But many people simply didn't want it. So we thought, ok, we'll make choices in the game that let you avoid it, but then players were like, I don't want to use a condom or pull out. Then it was like, well fuck it, you can turn it off and if you turn it off you can just experience the story we originally envisioned and we think that is still a great story.
From a writing and coding perspective, adding this level of inclusion to a game that is structured the way ours is, is a simple thing. Since we now have the ability to modify the OP we can include the appropriate tags and also advise potential players of which kinks can be turned on or off or avoided entirely. (Some kinks like foot fetish and anal stuff can be avoided by just not selecting those options during sex scenes, no need for additional options).
And because I'm such a fucking optimist, I believe that when we pull this off and people see just how seamless the transitions are, the community will help convince others that our game is worth playing even with a trans tag in the title. Because at the end of the day, I'm not into trans stuff and I'll have said option turned off on my play through. But I love a challenge, and I always want to push the limits to see where my strengths finally fail.
One thing we hate is when a dev makes changes to a game and old saves don't work.
So if you start a brand new game right now, you'll get these options at the beginning before the game starts. If you have an already existing save, then we've written a snippet of code to take you back and let you set those options mid-game so that you don't have to start over from the beginning.
As we expand the game, expect more of these options to pop up from time to time. But know that if you started a brand new game, you would get all these choices in the very beginning and your experience would be uninterrupted from there.
We also failed to set a flag during the pool scene. So when Jane's next update comes out, you'll get a quick options to tell the game what happened and the error will be corrected. New players won't have this problem as the flag has been fixed.
We promised old saves will always work, and we mean it!
You will be missing none of the game by turning NTR off. For scenes that could potentially contain NTR there will be two versions. One with the content and one without. The scene without the content will still have sex and dialogue. It will just be different dialogue and a different kind of sex. But both scenes will drive the plot forward in the same manner so that subsequent scenes make absolute sense and feel complete.
I know there have been a lot of comments here lately and I'll make an effort today to get around to everyone.
In the meantime, thanks for all the feedback!
Salute friends!

Thanks for answering that. I am really releaved to hear that. I really love the game already and to know that I won't have problems with NTR makes me happy

In my experience, neither of those claims hold water well. They sounds nice, though.
You have to differentiate between flavors and toppings. To do the ice cream bar successfully, you need a lot of flavors - upwards of five, maybe up to a dozen, and you have to be okay with making a game where the intended experience is to only ever see 10% of it. I know there are some VNs that do that, but it's more common in the Twine world. Toppings are far easier, but less cohesive.

I don't know why, but your post seems rather passive-aggressive.
Wow, it's like whoever wrote that was trying in the most succinct way possible to explain that turning off NTR or maybe even Trans content will not reduce the amount of game you get to play. To me it feels like he wanted people to understand there is no need for alarm, that their personal version of the game will remain unaffected when they choose not to participate in certain kinks.
In all seriousness, thanks for sharing that up here. I struggled with how to deliver that message without getting too wordy (That was the best I could do).
I think in another couple of releases when the impact of these options become relevant, we'll convert a lot of skeptics and non-believers. Cheers mate and thanks again!
We have a friend who does promo work for strip clubs in our area. We were talking with her one night and she said, wouldn't it be funny if.....and here we are.
The items are offered all in good fun and it was something we could do without taking away our from our development time because our good friend handles all the acquisition and shipping. She takes a cut off the top and we get a little patronage bump.
Basically she pings us with some questions about the character's personalities and then goes shopping for related items and perfumes. Once she's told us what she's got, we do some quick Daz magic and recreate the item digitally to put on our models.
It's fun, funny and sexy all at the same time.
The plan is to do you one better than that. The trans content would be a modified version of the scene you'd see normally if the content was turned off. So you won't be missing any story or be denied a sexy scene just because you've chosen not to engage in a particular fetish. We think it's a win-win.Well for what it's worth, here's my vote for 'please don't'. There is plenty of futa around (I feel for the vanilla girl-on-girl fans out there) and for someone who is in no way into that sort of thing, I'd prefer to not have it added. If it's merely a one or two scene story that can be skipped it won't bother me in game of course, but still I'd prefer that time and energy spent on something else.
We make no claims to actually representing the policies or practices of real sexual therapists.
Without quibbling over the details, we know. But it's close enough to NTR that it set a lot of people off when we discussed this story possibility.
Basically our girl goes shopping for stuff she thinks fits the personality of a character, then we mock up a Daz version of it to put on the character. She buys the stuff in small quantities and can always sell what she doesn't move to the girls at the strip clubs she does promo work for. So at the end of the day we have nothing invested in it and it doesn't cost us any development time.
It's just a fun little side gig that was proposed to us and we thought it was amusing enough to participate in. If no one ever contributes enough to achieve those rewards, we are out nothing but a little bit of Daz modeling time we'd have spent making clothes anyway.
A voice of reason in a sea of insanity!Some people here really act as if NTR will let their dick rot, just because it is optional in a game.
I hate NTR, but there are enough games with NTR in it, that offer perfectly safe routes for playing without touching that shit.
Stop being wimpy-ass pussies.
You raise an interesting point...we were lumping Emily's potential infidelity in with some weird shit Nanami might do and flagging it all as NTR. Now that you've brought this up, I wonder if we should separate out Infidelity and NTR into two distinct categories for people like yourself who want Emily's behavior to be rational while not engaging in Nanami's sick fucking games.
I never said Vampire....goth maybe, but never vampire.
penedeyewink:We appreciate you coming back and giving it a go! We acquired a lot of experience in those first few months and what we have now is much more definitive and closer to the vision. There are still some things we want to get better at, but we'll save those for the next project we do. For now, this is the final evolution and we're glad you find it an improvement. We certainly do. Cheers mate!
I personally love the new Monica. When putting together the original poll I didn't think she had a chance in hell. I was shocked when she won out over the model that would later become Sharice, the gym receptionist.
Thanks for playing mate!
With the exception of Emily and Nanami, character introductions don't include sex. It wouldn't make sense at the outset of the story. But for what it's worth, there are sex scenes for Emily, Namami, and there will be one for Jane in our next update about to drop in the next 48 hours or so.
So wait, let me see if I understand this. You're requesting a path where you continue to interact with the girls but don't have sex with them? Fuck me. In our binary minds we simply assumed that players would choose between "I want to bang her" and "I don't want to bang her". You've just spun me into a dimension of possibility that I didn't think existed.
You've given me something to think about for certain. Though I'm pondering, if Roger is playing the good husband, isn't perving around town, and has his shit together, why would he need a sexual therapist. Forgive me, I'm writing this as I am thinking about it so don't look for a complete thought from me yet. One the one hand, I think you could just leave many of the scenes in tact and just remove the sex...but at the same time, much of the dialogue is geared around acquiring sex...….hrm. Man, you've launched me on a thought experiment now.
Does anyone else want to weigh in? Are people interested in plot lines without sex in them?
I'll have to take this one to the committee and talk it out with my fellow devs on this. Thanks for the thought provoking comment!
And thanks again to everyone whose played and commented! We read every word and will continue with responses throughout the day.
Salute all!

Well, Sharice is fucking hot as well. I love them both. I want to be the milk in that double-chocolate milkshake.
A threesome with those two does not seem completely impossible for our MC who can wrap all those gorgeous women around his fingers.
I admit I found that rather strange. I mean, to each his or her own, but the premise of the game is sort of the opposite of that path, just feels weird to me.
OTOH, I know several people who only ever go for one girl in every game.
Personally, I want to get as many as possible (if I like them, that is) and to bliss me out, I want a harem ending with everybody happy to share my MC.
BTW, if you manage to really churn out more content updates now, I really don't have any more reason not to divert some of my meagre patreon funds to your game.
I mean, I loved the first version and so far, the relatively slow coming updates were all that held the new version back in my game rankings.

Well spank my ass and call me Nixon (AROO!), even though it's in the fucking title of the game it completely dropped from my mind that she is a SEXUAL therapist. I always though of her as just a regular therapist.
As for the other girls, this is quite the shocker, even reading over their descriptions in the walkthrough again right now, it is not at all obvious to me that we would eventually end up having sex with them (on the blue path). I though we would just help them grow out of their respective shells.
Well, not Nanami, her we can chain up at the foot of our bed and she can service Emily and us. :tf:

I like your enthusiasm for adding in alternate content and trying to cater to other fetishes. However at some point I think you need to look at your project's scope and ask if something like this fits and is worth the development time that would be assigned to it. At the end of the day this is Dr. Amana Sexual Therapist, not Roger The Good Family Man.
I will say though that after playing this version, it's starting to look good. I wasn't a big fan of the decision to rework the game, but the story and events feel more connected and I think it will be an overall better experience in the end. Keep up the good work.

True enough, but that doesn't mean that there needs to be scenes written for multiple non sexual routes. Staying loyal would just lead to less scenes in the same way that it does now. I overall like the idea of non sexual routes because it would be a more well rounded game. I suppose it comes down to, again, what is the scope of the game. I think I'm cautions about adding additional non sexual routes because then it's just another thing on the dev's plate and I've seen plenty of projects (patreon and in my work life) that suffer and fall apart after trying to add in too much stuff.Well I'm not just pulling it out of my ass.
From the description of the game:
