So this game is really make male to female or it is only turn into girl with dick?
The game currently only allow feminization up to and not including gyneplastia (gender reassignment surgery). Adding it is something that is planned at some point, but I want to give the feature the proper respect it deserves and I will need to adjust a lot of content accordingly as well. It will probably be a multiple parts update gradually including other transitioning procedures such as HRT. It's going to be a lot of work, that's for sure. So for now, you can get breast enhancement surgery and what not, but that's the full extent of it.

Could we allow players the option to decline scripted sex scenes, like that first time you visit the Red Vixen?

Would help offer more freedom, RP wise, since not every character would be fine with those situations. Kinda like when the game gives the player the option to partake in gloryhole shenanigans at the fuel station. Yet while I ask of this will there be instances of forced sex in a more dangerous light, (rape, naturally), which depends on a strength/submission requirement? Much like how you can fight the armed thief at the fuel station, unless you're physically too weak to challnge him, that is...
It's a really conflicting issue for me, frankly. As much as I would love to, I feel that removing that first scripted scene would cause the game more harm than good at this point in time. One of the main complaints I get is that there isn't enough sex scenes in the game and making the first one missable would probably cause a whole lot more people missing what is essentially the first sex scene in the game. Then narratively, it would need a lot of adjustments to the story line.

Then again, I do understand where you are coming from and I tend to personally agree that avoidability would be nice. I'll have to look into the feasability of the act some more.

As for the second question, I still don't know. There are a few semi-coerced acts in game (caught at the gloryhole through the risk mechanic, notably), but they are few and far between. I think there is potential there, but I'm not too sure at which point it would become detrimental to the game.

That's fair. I'll admit I didn't progress beyond that story arc after the first sex scene. I'm assuming you meet up with that woman at a later date and she 'opens the door' for more sexual content? Or does she introduce you to other characters?

If it's the latter, we could say from a narrative standpoint she was too drunk to remember what happened that night and didn't know the player turned her down. Or she simply lies about what happened and tells you to 'just go with it' if you try to interject and say nothing happened. That way the story can progress with minimal changes while giving the illusion of choice.

What do you mean by 'detrimental to the game', btw? You mean it as in the subject matter is too dark or something else?

That is certainly an interesting way to do it, I'll think about it.

As per the detrimental part. The game is a fairly "wholesome" one, where the player is encouraged to explore what they want to become. Since you didn't move the main plotline very far, I won't go into the details too much, I hope you don't mind. There is only one real "forced" scene in the entire game, with a risk mechanic really showing that things might backfire. There are some fighting options, notably at the Gas Station, but it also comes with a risk indicator, the risk being injury as you noted.

The identity of Fresh Starts is centered on a more positive light on feminization than most other games in the genre, with the only coerced feminization path meant to be escapable (not currently, but in the future, it will be. The option is there, but it dead ends as of the time of writing this), and it is a philosophy I try to extend to a lot of the content in the game. It's honestly a difficult topic to approach and personal preferences do come into play, so the answer is that while possible there will be more of that content to be added in the future, I'm not drawn towards adding more and won't go out of my way to add more, be it coerced or forced.

I usually work with the flow when it comes to writing, which heavily influences the content added in any given update since I'm the sole writer.

All good. It's your game and, more importantly, your vision. Do what ya gotta do to make sure it remains that way. =)

how do you cheat in money?
there's multiple ways, you can either do it with the cheat codes (gained by the dog care side job) or use save editors. Personally I use save editor cuz I'm lazy to grind for the codes, but I think someone posted all the codes before, you just need to dig through the whole post

After the first sex scene with the landlord the follow up ones don't come up as an option anymore.

Hi there! Currently the secret Gym is not implemented, nor is any content for this specific subpath, but I might add some content there soon seeing there might be interest in more "masc" content. Pretty much all of the content is going towards the sissy route.

I can't trigger the cheerleading tryouts, the reminder for it also disappeared a few days prior.
You need to visit the Football Field on the 18th of september around 18h. It's set late in the day in order to allow all programs to attend it. Hope this helps!

You do not need the cheerleader uniform for practices (it's essentially in a locker). You just need to go there while crossdressing. The purchasable cheerleader outfit in the clothing folder is a costume for outside activities.

I am still wondering when we can have a female start. Cause this game would be nice to have a female start.
It's something that is planned, but it's going to be a massive update that will split my attention even more between routes so I've kept delaying it for later. I don't want to give a date, but I don't think it's likely to be done before mid-2025 and even then I'd say the chances are fairly low as I'm focussing my efforts on adding more content to the current route and subroutes.

Looks like there was a typo in the code, it would be in the evening on day september 24th (thursday). Unfortunately, I'm not going to be releasing a patch at this point in time as I've already began work on the next version, but I'll be sure to have it patched for next month's release.

Getting this error below when going to Cheerleading practice on Thursdays

Error: <<Cheerleading>>: error within widget code (Error: <<addToInventory>>: item "Wax" does not exist.)

or while cross-dressing I get the message below no matter how feminine the clothing I'm wearing

Looks like you forgot to dress-up today! You should return when you are all dolled up!


Any Ideas how to get past this?

Did you try putting on foundation right before going? Makeup is removed the moment you shower, so that might also affect it. If you can't find foundation, it's part of the "Skin Palette" at Face Forward. Hope this helps!

Yeah, I am having the same problem, I removed make up and redid the make up so foundation was on and she keeps denying me saying I need make up. This is for the ending of training for me.
