Hi all, just a very quick update.

Work's been going well this week and I'm making progress. Mainly working on the animations still and will be doing that for quite a while but this week I also spent a little more time on some E5 outfits and new environments. I "finished" everyone's outfits a while back but recently made some adjustments to a few girls which I'm really happy with. I'll most likely show you Violet's E5 outfit this week and she's looking a little more goth than previous eps with a skirt and some fishnets. I'm really happy with all the E5 outfits and I'm really glad to see that you all liked Florence's. When I've revealed more we might have a poll to vote on who's got the best style in E5. But in terms of me - I'm mainly working on the animations while I fine tune the structure of E5.

Not much else to say except thank you for your support. Your generosity allows me to build E5 and I'm really enjoying it. Hope you have a great week

For a first time player, which is more important for the best experience: the twins patch or the walkthrough mod? Because they aren't compatible. I always use walkthroughs, because I normally only do 1 playthrough and want to see everything I want to. But I also dislike twins being referred to as "dopplegangers" or whatever.

I'd skip the twins patch (and the twins themselves), since I remember them locking you out of other content, and their content isn't that well defined yet. Go with the walkthrough instead.

I mean, there is a way to view all the twins content without locking yourself out of anything. Though I don't know if you should do that on a first playthrough.

iirc you dont have to avoiding them, because you can LIE to their face
lying to them that Paris is just a friend, then you can continue their path
normally i would advise people to not be a liar, but this game rewarding you for it
go for it, everyone!
i pretty sure you have to do this in the future contents too, up until all those girls mellow down about you being a manwhore +sacrifice a lot of lewd scenes [probably not a problem if you just Q.save and then save later then Q.load for it]+ harem perk

i played 2nd saved, walkthrough mod will help you unlocking most lewd scenes
but it not all
for example, you have to choose to corrupt saki for a lil bit more content
and you need lust at level 9 to unlock lydia first scene [which i find the animation kinda ridiculous ngl lol full blast riding his dick in hot tub with a bunch of girls, Taylor did catch on you tho which is a nice detail] << i missed this the first time because i followed walkthrough green choices and didnt have enough lust point for it
this game is still like 40% of it first season, so i would suggest try walkthrough mod first
then try again by yourself when first season complete

Computer died a few months back, so I've only just gotten around to to episode 4, but lost my saves so I'm replaying through the earlier episodes. In Episode 3, does being honest with the Twins still seem to completely fuck up things with them, or is there a chance to patch things up in Episode 4?

Actually, for those doing seperate playthroughs for different girls, how have you splitting them up?

Hi all - a longer dev update where I'll be yapping a little and giving some insight into the next three episodes. But firstly - work is going ok and I've been very busy this week. Still working on animating the biggest of the lewd scenes in E5 but it's going alright - a few things slowing me down here and there but overall I'm making progress.

I really don't have much to report as we're still very early in E5 development. So instead of a dev update, one of you made a good suggestion last week to outline the timeline & core content of the remaining episodes of this season (E7 = season 1 finale, E8 = first episode season 2). I want to keep this as spoiler free as possible while still allowing you to get an idea of what's planned. There are some very minor spoilers below but nothing naming any of the main 18 girls.

EPISODE 5: Elmwood week 4 -> week 5/6

• Early November to mid November in Elmwood time
• Similar size to previous episodes
• New potential side girl introduced. She's curvier and MILFier than other Elmwood girls and I might show VIP Patreon subs a preview of her soon. But just because she's introduced this episode doesn't necessarily mean she has a lewd scene.
• No major parties like E1 or E4, just lots of smaller events & dates with many of the different love interests. These numerous smaller events make up the bulk of E5 content.
• Similar number of lewd events to previous episodes

EPISODE 6: Elmwood week 5/6 -> week 8

• Mid November to end of November in Elmwood time
• Similar size to previous episodes
• No new characters introduced
• The most flexible (in my plan) of these three episodes which will help me bridge E5&7
• Similar number of lewd events to previous episodes

EPISODE 7 (SEASON FINALE): Elmwood week 9 -> week 10 (end of first academic term)

• Early December to mid December in Elmwood time
• Biggest episode of the season
• No new characters introduced
• Major party - season will conclude after the end of term Fresher's Ball (A black tie event consisting of dinner, drinks & dancing open to Elmwood's first year students and staff)
• Larger number of lewd events but very choice dependent and you won't be able to see all of them in one play through

And then episode 8 will begin as the first week of our second term of university. So yes - Christmas happens off screen between season 1&2 as everyone will be going home for the holidays. In future, I may create an xmas dlc but that won't be part of the 21 episodes I have planned right now. There's a huge amount of content I want to fit in which is why (season 1 at least) is tightly fixed to term time.

BUT! Please bear in mind that I may change things and I do not consider this plan to be set in stone. For example - E6 might have a party that I haven't yet planned. I'm currently extremely focused on E5 but that's a very basic overview of what each of the next three episodes will be like without giving any real spoilers.

This Wednesday I'll be showing you Jordan & Chloe's outfits for E5. I'm really glad you all seemed to love Violet's outfit - that seems to be the favourite so far so we'll see if anyone can top it.

Hope you all have a great week!

I don't suspose anyone is a paying sub and can share the Violet outfit preview?

Let's see if there's anything I can do about that.

I suppose I don't much understand the point of branching storylines in a self-styled harem game.

 

[FantasyFoursome]

I suppose I don't much understand the point of branching storylines in a self-styled harem game.

My understanding is that there will be endings with small to medium-sized harems/polycules, endings with throuples, and solo relationship endings, but there won't be one ending with a harem of all 18 LIs.

Are you sure there won't be a whole harem ending among all main love interests planned?

i think harem ending IS the default ending if player choose to do every interaction with girls
but also, probably sacrifice a lot of lewd scenes+need harem perk+a lot of difficult/annoying choices to choose to achieve it
because during this E4 patch, in order to romance both paris and the twins you have to an option to lie about it to the twins = continue both the twins and paris path
and another check for the twin path with accepting their confession = lose double bj scene
and naomi is a cuckqueen, so 100% default girl if you choose to romance her and she probably okay with poly-relationship
also darth something in frat party pretty much told you beforehand about harem end that you NEED harem perk for all the girls to be okay with it
very ambitious, but doable
needless to say that most girls dont have solo ending, cheer girls is a package of 3 anyway

 

[Thedude715]

Yeah gonna agree with other comments here it seems slightly odd the the twins tries to hardlock you into just them (unless you got the perks to kind off get away with it) in what is clearly intended a harem game otherwise.

Are they going to have so much content that it would justify skipping everyone else? Seems unlikely no?
I guess we will see they were really cute being jelous "casting spells" on the protagonist.

I also tried adding a bunch of perks with the mod and was suprised there was already scenes for a few of them, "cumdrunk" came up quite a few times, before you could even get enough points to actually get it legit? Happily suprised yes! But again kinda odd.

Based on what you're saying, I take it there's no way to patch things up with them yet if you're honest with them?

I wish the dev wasn't so cagey about who is on what route. I'd rather just make multiple playthroughs to experience all the girls, instead of fumbling in the dark and potentially hurting them. I'm too much of a pussy to play through making cute girls cry.

Alongside the Cheerleaders, Katie and Violet also seem pretty chill with you dating both, so I wouldn't be surprised if those 5, plus Taylor form the core of the big harem route, with others being optional inclusions.

Those 5 would be hot. In reality any of them would probably be the death of someone my age.

True. It would certainly make an interesting obituary...
