I've seen it a few times before. Some people are scared to death of success, and purposefully sabotage themselves to show everyone what a failure they think themselves to be. This crap that has been coming from this Dev with this part 2 is a prime example of self-sabotage.
The fact this guy still has 300 subs is also a case in point of the stupidity of people in general.
nope, he just wants money with minimum effort.

Last time i played.

Follow the incest approach = Game will punish you and you will feel horrible.
Follow the non incest approach = Game will punish you and you will feel horrible.
Follow the game only for the story itself = game will punish you and you will feel horrible.

Anything changed since that time or is it still the same from when i last played it?
Gumdrop managed to expand his scope.
Download the game to extract assets = Game will punish you and you will feel horrible if you see what "art" is in the game.
Download the game by accident or decide against extracting assets = Game will punish you and you will feel horrible for having wasted bandwidth.
Have any hopes for this game to be completed = Game will punish you and you will feel horrible for realizing it will never live up to its potential.

Short answer: Don't.
In Legacy: the father has sex with 2 women, the son has sex with 3 women. No one has sex with either the daughter or the mother.
In Part II: no one has sex.
Neither part advances the storyline in any way toward climax and resolution.

I'm here for the popcorn and cookies.
Thanks, that's what I needed to know.
I won't waste any more time downloading this

How come no one tried to release android port?I'm just curious tbh.
Repeating my previous response:
Adding:
You can go request someone to port it in the Android Port Requests thread. Looks like no one ever has made a proper request (using the search box for "dual," "DF," and "gumdrop"). That said, you have noticed that this has shit reviews and over 800 pages of people discussing how terrible it is and that there is no expected content in this product. No one sexes the mother or the daughter in this.

I just could not be bothered to wait for the compressed version to drop. Nevertheless, I persisted. Here is the change in visual content between the last update for PART II (TV DS) and the current update (PARTY HALL). There were ZERO new webm videos and 54 new PNG images.

thanks for clearing. i couldn't belive that this was so bad. i thought you are exaggerating, but you actually were mild on this mess some people calling game
what the hell is going on with dev? what is this all about in part 2? what am i supposed to do there?
i unziped flight and aves and it looks like each of part 2 updates are different.
the only common thing is that there is no content at all. "games" looks like dev was under heavy influence while making it. You just wandering around, possibly waiting drugs and booze disappears from devs body to give us some sense into this psychodellic and absurde bs.

What happened to this game? Are Party Hall, TV Ds, etc. all separate games? What happened to the original game? I haven't downloaded anything since then.
Every update in Part 2 gets it's own title like an episode.
You can probably play from which ever is the newest upload, but it'll probably be even more weird since it's going to be even harder to tell where all the content is.

If you follow my comments on the thread you may be surprised by the incongruity of my opinions. I am not as salty about the original game as one would think, but I am very direct in telling people that if they are looking for an incest-focused pornographic VN this isn't the bus you want to catch. I actually admire the original as a game and as a story but I came to the party fairly late after several years without updates and almost immediately there was a brief update and the release of part two. Therefore, I don't have the history of frustration that long-time fans have. Instead, I find myself kind of at peace with the fact that the original VN is dead right at the biggest cliffhanger in both playthroughs.

However, this does not mean that I'm not going to dunk on the dev for what they are doing with Part II. For one thing, calling it Part II is a failure of nomenclature. A total misnomer. Calling it that indicates that there is a continuation of the story. I would soften my opinion if it was called something else because I am all about freedom of expression. I have an MFA in creative writing & poetics and would characterize this work as a marginally interesting experimental fiction. It is indeed interesting to look at it purely as a piece of art but, in context, it fails as it only exists to subvert expectations and frustrate its audience. While at the same time stringing them along and taking their money. This makes it cease to be a real work of art and instead positions it as a grift.

So the saddest thing about this is that Part II is eroding any kind of goodwill that I have toward the original game. This is a pity because I quite enjoyed it. Normally I am of the opinion that if you don't like a sequel or an adaption then the original still exists and they can't take that away from you. However, in this case, the continuation - if you can call it that - is poisoning the well and extracting any enjoyment that I had with the original material. That in itself is an impressive if dubious accomplishment.
I'm hoping that there's something in the end of Part 2 that'll tie everything together and "make perfect sense".
But I feel like my hope for that should be reserved for someone like Christopher Nolan, rather than a guy who makes a porn game.

nothing can fix part 2 except maybe hospitalization and therapy. starting with myself, since i'm trying to find sense in dev's delirium...
how lucky am i... i picked today two games to try (this and of birds and bees) and both are creepy sickos, each in their own way, although other one have some content which in the end i wish it does not exists.
