Guys? I am not on the Blue cat discord so i know nothing but is Blue Cat aware some scene/asset from ecchi sensei were taken by someone else? I was pretty sure most of the charactere models were custom made and that game is straight up using scene from ecchi sensei and just changing dialogue
https://f95zone.to/threads/now-then-v0-20-0-ilsproductions.51634/
Ps: probably authorised, that game isn’t new so i doubt i am the first one to say that, just asking since i saw nothing mentioned on this game page about authorisation and while we are a pirate website stealing asset and art is downright rude.

No, just treat them like separate games.
Based on the screenshots, it looks like it has it's own. Do you have any screenshots of the scene in question? It could be they just look similar due to the characters both being built in Illusion games?
No screenshot no, this isn’t a straight away ripoff but some of the characters look extremely similar and found themselves in the exact same situations that some of the chracter from ecchi sensei, look like he did a side by side and changed some details on the character themselves, could be wrong tho, could be a big coincidence. But an earlier comment from the start of the thread also referenced the fact the characters looked extremely similar to those from ecchi sensei, i really wonder if he didn’t start with asset from the game before modifying them during later update.
Ps:it’s also possible he took inspiration from ecchi sensei for some part.

Good old bug. Save the game just before you open the phone and load this savegame right away. Then the phone should work.

Hmm. I haven't really played Now and Then (yet), but looking at the teaser images, I don't see the resemblance to any of the Ecchi Sensei characters. I would say it is no different then how lots of Daz games use the same models with minor edits. Look at my avatar. She shows up in dozens of games with slight modifications.
I can't speak for ils productions, but I think it is just a coincidence if you see the models as similar. As RandoCard3 said, Illusion generated characters tend to have a similar look, with less variety than you see in Daz games.
I can see why he's thinking it, and there's probably some very similar point for point scenarios that are ringing around, the daughter looks strikingly like Mao of course which is probably what si setting off the alarm bells as it were, but really that's jsut the nature of using rendering softwares, shit can look similar from game to game.
Now if there was a bubblegum haired thick hipped sister and a yandere ginger tagging along as well, then we'd have a case of rip off lol
She doesn't have Mao's abs, and she's got a ton of freckles. Her body is more similar to the homeless girl or maybe Jade from Mythic Manor. I suppose Alice looks similar to the principal, but a thicc blond milf is going to be a thicc blond milf no matter what you do.
I've played Now and Then. I feel it has very little in common with this game. Though I find it to be an excellent game in its own right. Beyond the very general style common to all illusion based models, I wouldn't have considered there to be a significant resemblance.

I'm fine with that. I've waited so long already, so another month or so is nothing. I just want this merge business over and done with, so we can all move on an argue about different things for once.
Yeah i think what made me think the most of Ecchi sensei was the daughter’s and some situations similar to ecchi sensei combined to the fact her face kinda look like Mao (the fact the MC got the top of his head obscured like Matsu doesn’t help) and Alice face is nearly an 100% match for the principal but yeah i can see it’s probably a big coincidence (also i don’t play a lot of Illusions based game too, only reason i started playing Ecchi sensei were Mao abs lmfao), the game is good tho.
ps: i have weirds rectangular thingie on my screen when i type, dunno what i did to make them appear but can’t remove them, anyone know how?

I usually just copy/paste the correct Week 1 save into the Week 2 save file. Seems to work for me.

How will I know if the Dark Mind patch works? Like what is the first scene which would show it working?

When Patch is working, in the upper left corner is a figure with the name DarkMind beneath of a pantie. Also see that in the image the girls are all depraved.

At the moment, yeah they're separate, but the plan is to merge them all. That's what they're working on at the moment. The merge will come with a bunch of bug fixes, some new mechanics and the save system will actually work. It's supposedly dropping before the end of the year, so you'd be better of waiting, to be honest.
