Well, the one who was upset in the first place is the Decent Monkey's loyal patron who pays him 30 dollars a month (that is 360 dollars a year). It is understandable that he is kind of disappointed with the size of the update. When you pay such a big amount of money, you expect a certain amount of work done by the developer. I mean, just imagine, you go to a store and buy a cake for 30 dolllars. You got home, you open the package, but there is only half of the cake inside. Would you be upset? I think I would. Then you call the store and the baker says to you, "If you don't like how I run my business, you can always buy cakes somewhere else. Good bye". It doesn't sound so nice, does it?)

Anyway, it is incredible how bad Decent Monkey at public relations. I mean time and again the same mistakes. He could have just said something like, "Sorry, guys, I was really busy making the transition between the episodes, coding and stuff and so I didn't have enough time to produce the amount of the content I usually do. But don't worry, the next update will be awesome." That is it, and he would have smelled like flowers, and not sounded like an asshole.
OMG! It's $30 US an update not per month. I'm not that wasteful with my hard earned.:D

Your point at the end of your post is spot on. If he had just given some kind of disclaimer stating unusual circumstances with this update I would have shut-up and quietly waited for the next one.

Hi! How can I unlock the full gallery? (or full save ep2) there are still scenes that I do not know how to get
in
FashionBusiness-EP2-v16-Extra-pc\game\Quests
and the other 3 episodes
find the file Achievements.rpy
open it with a text editor like notepad or notepad++
in the last line change false to True

this is much easier than installing those gallery mods you can find here
and gallery are ingame in left upper corner and looks like a diploma

this is for eps1,1 and shall be extracted in the game folder
and only for vers 1,1
use extract here
not extract to
View attachment Quests.rar

there are changes from eps4 v5
it shall looks like this


def check_achievement(str):
if str in achievements_labels:
achLabel = achievements_labels[str]
if (achLabel in persistent.achievements) == False:
persistent.achievements[achLabel] = True
# renpy.save_persistent()
print "Achievement reached!"
return True
return True

def get_achievement(achLabel):
if (achLabel in persistent.achievements and persistent.achievements[achLabel] == True) or debugMode == True:
return True
return True

def check_shake_achievement(video_filename):
shake_img = re.search(r'shake\_(\d+)', video_filename)
if shake_img != None:
check_achievement("img_" + shake_img.group(1))
return True

Pointing out your productivity compared too other developers isn't needed. I am well aware you beat out 98% of your peers in this regard. And when the quality of the game is added, it is surpassed by no one that I'm aware of. I'm not marking ep4v1 against other developers, I'm marking it against your previous work.
Pointing out productivity is a good thing, The vast majority of the people on this forum and in this thread, don't donate a dime imo. Yet I guarantee most of the loudest complainers are the biggest freeloaders upset and crying for a hero.

Not you but I see a lot of crying and whining and I'm always curious as to who supports and who is just an internet Karen throwline a temperature tantrum.

Being a Dik, devs regularly weekly or bi weekly post updates on productivity and what stage development is in. It's not much but as a Patreon it help to know that a game your donating money to is still active and making progress.

first of all have played eps1 and eps2 before you start eps3
not activated means that there are extra images you can't see before you activate it (only for eps3 an 4 )
and have you read the FAQ

The title Fashion business EP1-Ep2-Ep3 is beautiful, but it would have been better if the creators had put the sandbox. example ( Monica works with customers on the street. starting with doing striptease and ending with the quest where she works for the old woman on the street corner.) I was wondering is there a way for all of this to be used simultaneously?? that would be BEAUTIFUL! Does anyone understand what I mean? It would take a modder capable of making such a masterpiece.

I made some changes to the soundtracks, removing that almost ironic, very unpleasant style with a much more tragic style, I can assure you that the style of the title changes a lot.

It is kind of difficult to understand what you mean since you are obviously not a native speaker, but probably you want to play the complete street prostitution (the fallen path) branch from all episodes separately, that is, without playing other events, like a separate mini-game.

Yeah, it certainly would be nice, especially considering that that branch doesn't make much sense when Monica has other means of making money, such as working as the head of the escort service.

But I doubt that someone will make such a mod, least of all Decent Monkey. It is quite a bit of work. Well, maybe if the rest of the events in this branch are super awesome...

I would also like to see that, maybe even all branches like that. Probably in the form of a visual novel without too much clicking.

I wonder whether it would be possible for Decent Monkey to sell such a minigame on Steam. Call it something like "A Lady Fallen from Grace". That way, the ban of the Fashion Business that he received in the past won't matter, since it is a different game, will it? I would buy it myself. It is interesting what the developer himself thinks about it, after all he is lurking somewhere here.

I think 2 potential buyers in steam is too little for a "lurking dev" to want to do something like that. :KEK:

Maybe. I don't know the market. But since such, let's be honest now, mediocre games such as MILFs of Sunville are sold like hot cakes on Steam (at least I'm told so), then maybe there are more than two who will buy such a game. Probably much more. Not to mention, thousands of extremely bad games are sold there every day, including those horrible puzzle games with AI-generated pictures.

What I'm sure about is that developing such a game consisting of already-made renders and most of the story won't take nearly as much time as creating a completely new game. My guess is that it would take no more than a few weeks. I'm no Decent Monkey nor an expert on selling games, but if I were the developer, I would consider such a possibility.

Hi, is there a way to unlock the full gallery for EP3? There's too much missing in my game, don't think I'll manage to get everything.

As for EP4, I'm missing the 2nd picture of "Office" and the last one of the Photoshoot (an Extra option apparently), can someone tell me how to get them? Thanks!
