make sure you d/led 'Friends in Need' and not 'Friends Indeed' (so-called 'vanilla' version) and make sure the patch is enabled. you can download the patch on the front page, just follow the instructions. load your last save game that had patch enabled. or if you started a new game and cant do dark stuff, you have to start again or else the patch wont work even if you have it enabled.
thanks man but i play in android and i don't know how this works?

For those not in the know the best way to know which version you have is to start the game ff to the first choice, indeed will only have 2 choices while in need will have 3 choices

True, and she was forgotten for a reason, but simply because she was uninteresting to the audience. And since the update was dedicated to her and Gabby, where the hell is Gabby in that case? A couple of scenes at the end of the 10th update is damn little to claim that it is dedicated to Gabby. This is what is upsetting. Instead of the expected female characters, we are once again getting either new ones or uninteresting and forgotten old ones. In the end, this is just annoying, and what was promised was not fulfilled.
Eh the way I see it I'm not paying him so he can do what he wants. Sure, I hope the MC knocks up his cute sister in the future at some point but not gonna care too much if it doesn't happen (seems she's going to have her own story arc so maybe). I will simply get bored and move on to some other incest AVN that doesn't suck and maybe/maybe not come back to it when it gets a completed tag. As far as people paying him based simply on promises, well that's on them and their gullibility. Fools and their money...

Pretty sure I never said it was going to be a huuuuuge, Gabby update with her as the focus. In all of my dev updates, etc. I was pretty up-front about the fact that Gabby would only feature in the ending scenes, returning in Chapter 11 for more content. Now, I may have said that it was a important update for Gabby, which I'd say is true across all the paths. For the love/friendship path that means addressing the rift in their relationship. For the corruption/dark path that means an escalation in their physical contact.

In Android unless there's a prepatched .apk (unlikely, it's why a separate patch exists) you're out of luck. AFAIK you can't drop a patch in a /game folder or something straightforward like that like it is for Windows. Just another reason why there's a PC master race but not a phone or tablet master race.

URM is your friend, don't ask me to look up the variables for you, can't be bothered with it.

URM (Universal Renpy Mod) is probably the easiest way to do that once you figure it out. It can search for variables, change them, etc. You can also see when there are alternate branches available and manually chose them if you're on a different path as you play.
Thank you. I checked URM ingame, but I was not able to figure out how to find and change the right parameter, to change my relationship status with Gabby. Any hints what I need to type and do?

Ashe doesn't deserve to be brought a pot of flowers. At most she deserves to be raped, and have the flowers shoved up her asshole as a final humiliation.
but we actually rape her and she is okay with it, she respond in a really weird manner to the mc forcing her in the alley

There are quite some you can do that. Actually in most of the Android ports from the known porters (like Cebs, DA, Koga3, Wills747...) you could add a patch into the Android game. But they most of the time have already included it anyway

Just find the existing patch.rpy file in the /game folder, and use a text editor to change the False to True.
Thx. I have done that before; it didn't work, but after deleting the game and extracting it once again, it worked for some reason.

Sorry for wall, but this is just general walkthrough for URM. Go to bottom for tl;dr if you don't care lol

Start your game -> Alt + M to open it (don't know how in android etc.) -> ok for warning
You should be in variable search tab, so just search for a variable. For example, to search for gabby variables you could search 'gabby' or 'gab' or 'gb' or 'gb_' or '_gb' and so on and so forth. You basically just have to figure out how the dev names their variables. I think 'gabby' should give you all of them, or most of them anyways.

Also keep in mind, that in the search tab, where it says 'search in', you can click on 'variables' and change the search rules; if you don't know what they do, there are question marks next to them.

In that same area, you can also instead search for 'values'. That's for when you have a better idea of what the value of the variable is than what the variable is called. For example, let's say you want to change Gabby's name, but don't know what the variable is called; well, you do know what the value is, it's 'Gabby', so you can search for 'Gabby' and voila, the variable is 'gb.name' and you change her name to whatever you want. Of course, you could've also searched 'variables' for 'name' and gotten the same result (as well as all the other names you can change).

Lastly, you can search for scenes. I've never fiddled with this, so no clue how it works.

Honestly, I'd recommend just playing through the game, you can skip if you want, and when choices for Gabby pop up, there should be a blue indicator at top left 'choices detected'. Pop it open, and you can look at what each decision does under the 'code' column by hitting 'show'. If there's nothing in the code column, then it's either an inconsequential decision (cum on her tits vs her thighs or something) or itself does nothing except branch into a decision tree (look at Risa while she's changing, or don't; each leads to other specific choices unique to the decision).

If you want to be on Gabby' romance route for example, then anything that looks like it gives Gabby happy points (hpts) is good; anything that says 'romance' is good; it might not say romance or anything, so in that case, you're looking for something that affects her relationship status. In FiN, it's the 'gabbyrel' variable; well, now the problem is that the 'value' is a number; what does that number correlate to? Don't know for sure.. it's whatever the dev decided it is. I could be wrong, but for Gabby I think '0' is friend, '1' is romance, '2' is corruption, and '3' is dark; there may be others I'm not aware of, or more routes in future updates. And the numbers are not necessarily the same for all the LIs, so this is basically stuff you have to figure out yourself unless someone else knows. Also, this is could potentially screw up your save in some way, so be careful.

TL;DR Load game -> Alt + M -> ok for warning -> search variables for 'gabbyrel' and change the value to a number that correlates to the status you want. For Gabby, I think '0' is friend, '1' is romance, '2' is corruption, and '3' is dark. You could break your save, so be careful, and so on.

O_O what game did you play, because she's definitely not ok with it at all lol..

I’d rather people not post the text of the Sneak Peek posts here, and limit themselves to posting one image from anything behind the pay-walled posts of Sneak Peeks or Wanton Weekends. Also, linking to the posts on SubStar or Boosty would certainly be nice.

I see it like this: my supporters give me money for three reasons. To support development of the game, to receive exclusive content, and to get access to me as a creator.

I’ve always tried to make myself available here. I don’t throw a hissy fit when people leak broken copies of my game, and I spend time trouble-shooting errors for people who haven’t paid for my work.

But, if this place is already leaking my game a couple days after it’s released (or immediately, in case of the Beta), leaking the full text and images of my exclusive content, AND getting access to me — then what are my subscribers getting?

I generally take a positive-to-neutral view of piracy, seeing it as something that drives traffic towards my work. But, having *all* of my content reposted for free? That just doesn’t sit right with me, because it isn’t fair to my subscribers. At the very least, people could wait a week before leaking that stuff.

With a landscape like the one in this niche market, a market full of pirate seites, subscribers or patrons don't sub just to get the game or whatever. Many patreon pages have less activity than their pirate forums siblings. Patreon and the such are patronage sites, you're giving money to artists because you enjoy their works not in exchange for goods.
I understand devs trying to give some exclusive content to attract more subs, but it would be hard to avoid leaks. Better count on it and don't take it bad because I have seen some famous devs going full retarded in that situation :HideThePain:

If you look at things objectively, the truth is that you cannot ensure the exclusivity of exclusive content. That's how the internet and piracy work. So you just have to forget about it and focus on other problems. For example, you can prevent your game from leaking prematurely by sending personal copies to your patrons. It's entirely doable.
