Yes, There are currently three scenes with a good amount of lesbian content. You can choose to leave 2 of them early before anything happens. The 3rd scene is part of several options regarding helping Britney with her locker. There are multiple opportunities to avoid the lesbian option.
Avoiding is that the scene never happens even if you don't see it, what you are saying is skipping, the scene happens but you just don't see it because you leave early.
Skipable and avoidable are used for each other here a lot. Just FYI. A lot of terms are used "wrong" according to some, just a heads-up
There's lesbian and MC action in an art room scene that is part of the helping Britney with her locker path. If the player doesn't select the options for the scene, it doesn't happen. There's also lesbian & MC action in the Deans office and shower scene. Again, if the player doesn't select the options for the scene, it doesn't happen. My original reply was based on the player selecting the options to see the Deans office or shower scene. The player does have the option to leave early and skip them but they would miss the MC action as well. Does this answer your question?
Yes, so if I don't select them, they don't happen even off screen, nice to know, it's worth even if I lose some content, I don't like lesbian in harem games, unless they are doing it because the MC asked them to.
Thanks for your input. My intent is that the player shapes his gaming experience through meaningful choices. The class choices allows the player to build up the stats that they prefer for their MC. The player chooses which girls to interact with to increase their relationship level. The stats play an important role in this as the girls prefer some stats over others in typical dating sim convention. The lesbian content tends to be of the voyeur and potentially join in variety. But it is avoidable as just one of the options a player is presented to choose from.
Thanks. I'm trying to develop each of the girls so that getting to know each character will be a different experience. I hope that you'll enjoy my game and consider leaving constructive feedback so that I can make the game better.
Thanks for your post. Since I'm creating the game, it can be hard to spot why my game isn't more popular and what areas need to be better explained. I'm currently reworking the contest point system and will add an explanation as to how it works.
The game is based on traditional dating sims. Relationship level starts at stranger. You spend time learning the persons name, what they like, etc. Over time, you develop a relationship from things like talking, holding her door open, etc. Gestures a girl appreciates generate love points. Lust points are when a girl becomes aroused. It could be a touch, kiss, etc. Mind control and the saber tend to also increase the lust score to increase a girls interest in the person. A girl has various stats preferences. For example in the challenge, if the girl likes art, art has a multiplier of 4. Further say that the player has an art stat of 2. So the player score for selecting art to discuss with the girl would be 4*2=8 for a score of 8.
Thank you for your clarification. I'll think about possible suggestions how to further address the issues I've raised. I appreciate your response.
Glad to hear that you like the girls. Each girl has a different personality so that pursuing each one provides a different experience.
To clarify, the Eternal has an identical daily schedule, class options, and interacts with the same girls to allow for a fair contest. I originally planed to have more interactive material between the Eternal and the MC. But players posted that they didn't care for Chet mind controlling Julia. So it will be the only material in the game where the Eternal actions effect a girl. I track the Eternals choices so that I can use actual numbers to update things such as the contest score, challenge numbers, etc. instead of trying to assign a value that will hopefully be challenging but beatable for the player to compete against. So the Eternals actions are off camera and only to determine good scoring figures for the competition. No Eternal interaction or blocking the players girls. This sounds like it matches what you indicate that you look for in a game.
As noted above, Eternals actions will not impact or block the players pursuit of the girls. The Eternals progress is purely to provide the competitor score for the contest. Every girls is fully available for the player to determine who they wish to pursue. The player shapes their character the way they want through the class and interaction choices to increase relationship levels and unlock each girls story. It's up to the player to determine if they want to focus from anywhere to one girl or build their own harem.
Thanks. I'm considering adding an option to click on a girls headshot in the journal that leads to an extended bio. The bio could list her stat preference order, gift preferences, things she likes, and an image folder to contain sexier photos she sends the player as their relationship increases.
Thank you for your post. Earth Girls is a dating sim challenge between 2 champions. In order to have a fair contest, the Eternal needs to face the same challenges as the MC. The Eternals actions are only to determine a fair number of points to show for the Eternals throughout the contest. I'd be fine with changing the narrative to the Eternals being assigned their own set of girls to interact with. I only went with the same girls to avoid questions of whether the two sets of girls allowed for a fair contest. If players prefer two sets of girls, I can add this to the explanation of the game.
SImGirls and True Love are two of the most popular dating sim games that I know. Both have a set number of days. Most traditional dating sim games I've played also have a set number of days. My goal with Earth Girls is to provide a challenging and winnable gaming experience. If a game takes place over 30 days and say even an experienced played can't average more than 10 points per day, then I can start my endings in the low 200 range. Increasing the target points from there for good and best endings. Removing the set number of days eliminates the benchmarks to determine say if the MC got close to a girl or never even went on a date with her. Unlimited days will allow the MC to exceed girlfriend level relationship points with a girl the MC didn't spend much time with. Also, the game would need to be coded to show repeating scenes to allow for the extended playing time.Also this is a dating sim? With a time limit?? How am I supposed to build a meaningful relationship with the girls if I'm limited by time? Especially if trying to go for a harem is there enough time to build something meaningful with all girls in the limited time given??
Thank you for your time
Thank you for your response I think I have a better understanding of it now I would definitely go for the two sets of girls as long as the number of girls each has then the contest would be fair sense both has same number of girls to contend with and using two sets of girls would eliminate any concern of someone else having adult time with mc's set of girls? Seen or not because both are still getting points for adult time which implies even if not actually used that the other guy is having adult time with mc's girls because he's getting points for it?
Yes, I can certainly include the narrative that the MC and the Eternal are pursuing 2 different sets of girls. As I previously mentioned, there won't be any further interaction of the Eternal with the girls. Chet's earlier mind control of Julia would need to remain as it serves to have the MC start seeing Julia as a girl instead of his best friend. I would miss the plot device of having the Eternal try and bait the MC with saying that they still have an eye on Julia. Nothing happening, but just messing with the MC's head. It would also cause an issue with the mechanics for the extra girls, Caterina & Michelle. Chet entered them in the contest to trick the MC. He's aware that they are lesbian and would thus be more difficult to receive contest points with them . They would require some effort to become more interested in the MC. But I thought that working to steal them from Chet might be interesting for players. They are purely optional and aren't part of the harem. This is why they aren't included in the journal. They will be seen speaking with Chet at times, but the MC won't see anything beyond that.
I've added scoring to each scene for the next update. This way players will receive a better idea of how the building of the stats and relationships impact the contest. The Eternal challenge with Caterina also shows the game mechanics for challenges as well as dates. I plan to have the dates share the same structure, but include more rounds and some different action options. The other mechanic players will soon see is actions such as giving gifts, dates, etc. You need to reach a certain relationship level before these options are unlocked. I believe that the addition of scoring will provide the players with a good idea of the mechanics. And the running score totals will provide the player with useful feedback on strategy options.Also appreciate the explanation of time limit like I said I was concerned there wouldn't be enough time for say the harem route but given the point system you've explained I can see where it could be done you just have to use your time wisely so thank you it would be nice to know what actual rules of the contest are so mc knows exactly what he needs to do to win? Like first one to 50 points wins or first that has all the girls at girlfriend level wins something like that instead of wondering if I have enough points or finding out your 2 points off most contests have clear guidelines on how to win? Unless I missed something which is certainly possible?
I look forward to enjoying more from this game I will also head over and take a look at your patreon
Thank you for your time
