What happened there?
Itch.io is banning some adult developer and refusing to process payment for others. It is a crack down, a bit like what happened with Gamejolt a year ago. And for a single dev trustable revenue streams are hard to come by as Paypal will blatantly steel Adult game devs, so will master card and swipe I think. So It is not a good time for indy adult game devs. At least it still host a majority of the Adult games that where already there but with out a way to process payment, it would be just an other window like the one F95 curently provides devs.

I made this post in the compression thread, but I'll make it here since it directs to the sources on Itch and here for the threads.

Seems I wouldn't be surprised if some devs that don't have many resources go belly up, or you don't see any more updates.

I've used Itch a lot, I do mean that I've bought a lot of content from there, it's usually cheap, and very easy to deal with.

Pleasantly surprised what we have are 2 distinct, unrelated games put together in one.

The puzzles are outstanding on their own and really should be put into a game of its own. I'm stumped
on the Daydreaming #7 puzzle and would love to see the solution to that. I know I am not alone needing
puzzle help. Perhaps the SKIP button should be renamed to GIVE UP where the correct solution to the puzzle is shown.
Click and then go on with the game. Of course the whole puzzle stuff could be put into a game of its own and
expanded on that.

As far as the game and story goes, I'm very much impreseed with the renders and the story has a lot of romance
and intelligence to it unlike many games/porn where it's grunt grunt me want you, ugggggh, how was that? It's
great, you are so masterful. Even 5 year olds can lie and fake things better. As an artist, I see your point adding
complicated puzzles to the game to stimulate thinking and intelligence while also thinking about sex. Like the
Spanish inquisition this was totally unexpected. Your two chief weapons are surprise, intelligence, and high quality
renders. Your three chief weapons are... Nevermind. Confess. Confess. This game is hot. Confess.

I might one day, when I have dozens of puzzles done, compile them into a separate app. But at that point it would be better suited to do so in an engine other than renpy, which would take time to recreate.

Note that there are hints and solutions available for the puzzles, both in the parent comment of this thread and on my discord. And it's certainly something to consider, to have the solutions embedded directly in the game, but it would also make it too easy to give up! I'm not forever opposed to the idea though.

And otherwise, thank you for the high praise! :)

A question about the puzzles:
Is there always a unique solution?
Can I rely on the fact that there has to be a unique solution (so if a choice would lead to multiple valid results without breaking the rules, is that choice actually invalid)?

Thanks.

Love the game so far! The story, the puzzles, the graphics, the characters (that I'd met so far).

The code would indeed accept multiple answers if they satisfy all the rules. That said, I can confirm that each puzzle really does have only a single unique solution that satisfies the rules, so you'd never see that actually occur.

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

I recently discovered the story and i must say i'm impressed, the plot is original, well written (love the literary references) the renders look really nice and the animations too, also i really love the puzzles! That is more than enough to make me feel super immersed with the story.
I wish there were more choices though but it's a pleasant experience so far, worth playing and supporting!

Besides being a fan of this game so far.
I'm just glad Tessa is participating in this thread answering questions and giving updates.
Giving me hope this game will see it through the end even if updates are slow/fast/whatever :LOL:
I know it is stil in early progress but it is active....keep it up! (no pun intended ;))

That's where you go to ask someone to make a sig banner for you.
He was asking if they already exist for this game.

I have one listed in my first message in this thread (the 3rd message).

Edit: I've added a direct link to that post in my own signature; see below.
