You put visual novel in genre yet this is on the releases section. Your tags are also all wrong and need fixing. If you're going to bother posting, do it right.

Actually I didn't. I found this post already written by someone else.
Didn't you see the different nicks and avatars? :look:
Sorry for any problems, but I'm not the right guy to address for that :)

2- Why a Mega link when I have a google drive download link posted almost everywhere? You can download version 0.0.2 here: or directly on my Patreon page
When the links were uploaded you were still using the old hosting service so I uploaded them to an unlimited one :)

About pediatrics... why a no no? There won't be ANYTHING sexually related in pediatrics EVER. The interesting things will happen with the young patient's parent(s)! :D
In the Emergency Room series, which I'm taking inspiration with, there were plenty of pediatric cases with children undressed down to their underwear and no one cared, because the whole context was non-sexual. I think that could become fun instead.
Seems interesting and I guess I somewhat understand the confusion here. Since we're an adult game website our website is revolved around porn, sex, etc. So when something like this comes in there's always that surprise factor... But there shouldn't be in this case. I've actually got really interested in the game and have been following each and every one of your patreon posts, and I feel like this is a breath of fresh air into the forum. Nudity but not in a sexual scenario. You're a doctor and you must do what's correct while working, if you want to get anything and get into the sexual scenarios it will be outside of the clinic. I like this personally.

Now one thing that I read and so far it's my only complaint, is that you stated on your patreon that there won't be any random generated cases. Each character will have a set story. In my view that's not really the best choice... but making it all random is also not a great choice. I think that you shouldn't discard the possibility of a random generation but shouldn't focus on it yet. In the future where we have a few more patients with stories outside of office I think generating random patients with random diseases could be a great way to keep the game fresh because you'd have the patients with a set story and that you can have certain interactions with and then you could have some random patients come up so it's not a linear story. Just my opinion. Apart from that I've watched your comments, your reactions, your video (your english isn't that bad by the way) and I've got to say you seem an impeccable dev so far. Really working hard and really enjoying what he's doing.

Now switching from my personal side to my mod side, I feel I must warn you. We're a website that distributes games and if anyone send us a patreon only version we will post it... We do however thank the devs that come on here and interact with our community to get some feedback, but if you're not comfortable with coming to our website because of us sharing a version that isn't out to the public then sorry but there's no exceptions.

Thank you for your feedback. I'll think about adding randomly generated cases in the future.
About coming here to discuss I don't have any problems with that. I won't personally send links to patreon only versions because I think it's not fair. Not fair for the patrons, not for myself. I'm happy if my game is appreciated and played, and I don't ask money for it. All pledges are entirely optional and, differently from other developers on Patreon, I won't EVER release something JUST for patrons.
They will get a preview of what the final public version will be.
Let me try to explain that: if a given release is set to contain 10 features and I will need 6 weeks to develop all of them
- The public will receive all 10 features in 6 weeks
- $5 patrons will receive about 8 features in 4 weeks
- $10 patrons will receive about 6 features in 3 weeks
- $20 patrons will receive about 4 features in 2 weeks

You will then post a version which could contain many bugs and some things I could even replace in the final version, that's because the game is an alpha build and everything is always subject to change.
Many developers put a pledge-only option to release exlusive content. I think that's not fair because I'm not trying to SELL my people. I can't even block someone to steal my idea and make good money with it, but I accept that.

While I'm not asking for money I will gladly accept those who are freely given to me. That's because I don't think I'll EVER reach a point where I will leave my job for good, but with what I'm actually earning (51$) I can buy more DAZ templates and improve the game. I know the ARRRR option exist but I don't feel right to steal the artist's work that help make my game becoming good.
A person could also pledge, download the game and then retire his pledge so giving me nothing. I accept that too and I don't care. If he likes my game and my idea he'll support me, if not... I won't replace his conscience.

So I will keep coming here to answer your questions and giving you updates. I only ask you all to follow my only "Official" channel (patreon), because I've seen even here many speculations about things that won't be present in the game among other things and I can't be everywhere to control the rumors are true or false.
I'm very glad so many people talk about my game and I won't ask a single penny for it ever. I think that's enough to put me on a different light from many other developers (I'm not saying better or worse, that's for you to say, I'm just saying "different").

Problem with a Mac version is that, even if I do it, I have no way to test it before release, because I don't have access to any mac machine. I'd risk to release a broken version.

The medical examinations in 0.0.3 will be revamped with the introduction of a new dismissal system. As of version 0.0.2 the examination endings consisted in telling the patients the cause of their problem, while automatic dialogues were given about prescriptions and discharge.

Starting with 0.0.3 the dismissal part asks the player more questions, such as:

- Evaluation of the disease/illness/wound

- Prescriptions (if any)

- Discharge orders (defer to a specialist / hospital / home care)

This way I'm adding an extra layer of simulation and a new level of difficulty, since it won't be always easy to choose an option over another (especially after the first three "tutorial exams").

Rita's and Clara's examination were also changed to the new system, so since old savegames won't work in 0.0.2 it's a chance to test it right away.

You could make an MAC build and let the users here test it for you, this way they can get the game and help you test it before you make it publicly available (if it works for them that is).

Not everyone wants to deal with sex scenes, family time, hanging out with friends and so on... Somebody just wants to play the medical examinations without worrying about the staff, the incomes and everything else.

It's for these people that I've made two game modes avalaible starting with 0.0.3:

- STORY MODE is the complete experience of General Practitioner. You will live as doctor and manage your time between your job and your free time.

- EXAMINATION MODE is the game focused only on the medical examinations. You will visit one patient after another without all the other game elements (4 examinations will be avalaible in 0.0.3)

You will be able to choose your game mode after the initial interview with Dr. Kirkman (also introduced in 0.0.3)

0.0.3 will be out:

- June 5th for $20 patrons

- June 12th for $10 patrons

- June 19th for $5 patrons

- June 30th for the general public

Thank you all for following this game's development.

Ahahahah, I never heard of that game. My inspiration comes from the non erotic simulation games "Emergency Room" of Legacy Games. I also think that this genre in under-used for its potential. :D
Thank you for playing my game. I promise version 0.0.3 will entertain you even more!
