@Bruni Multimedia Have you considered having more college age type patients? I think it would be a great idea to expand all sorts of stories, exams, etc. to have the younger crowd. Remember in those college years you see injuries, diseases, and sexual questions that you rarely see later in life. You could even make it so maybe there is a college or something nearby (maybe a town over or something). This allows for a very plausible way to increase the clinics number of patients in the future. Some of them make it to the clinic, are treated well, you get their friends since word of mouth gets around. It was just an idea bouncing around in my head for a huge influx of possible future character for you to expand into.

There's an "in development" quest related to explaining drug and STD's risks to high-school people. There will be nothing sexual with them being them underage and all, but they will cover what you are suggesting here :)

Thanks for your feedback!

hey , I have been wondering is there a game over or a penalty if I go fully perv on patients, other than low payment and low hospital reputation ?

The idea of mixing a medical simulator and a erotic "soap opera" in a game is something new, for sure, and it works, but I think the medical part is too complex for a game like this, and the story part advances too chaotically; too many characters presented at the same time and too many argumental arcs. I'm not sure if this is a game of dates, a visual novel, a game of mysteries and murders... Maybe a less ambitious approach at the beginning of the game would have been better. New story arcs could have been added after finishing the previous ones, like the chapters of a TV serie, and that would allowed a better evolution of the MC and the others. I always prefer quality to quantity. I see a lot of possible paths and possible girlfriends, but not really well developed. I would have prefered maybe a couple of main paths really well explained and presented: the sister and the nurse, for example. And then, from time to time, some short secundary stories of sexual adventures with patients, colleagues, Vanessa and her boyfriend for exploring threesomes with other characters or people who likes contents about gays...

Other problem is the grinding or "Groundhog Day Effect". The game is too repetitive. For example, the dates are always the same thing and doesn't add anything to the game. If there were only a couple of paths, the system of dates could be more polished, and not just "go to the beach twenty times with your girlfriend X and see always the same image"

Also, I think that more kinky in the scenes would be good, without forgetting the romantic part.

Anyway, THIS IS A VERY GOOD GAME. But it could be better, IMO.

Well I mean you could always have a few high school seniors mixed in their since they would be 18+. It could be blatantly stated that it is a "college sex ed preparation course" to make it extra obvious they are all older and on the verge of graduating. They could get some "hands on" instruction if you are going down the corrupt path. Also for the more straight laced path you could have one of the girls hit on him and make moves but he keeps 100% professional about it.

Thanks for the feedback, it's very appreciated!

I'm also thinking the game needs some polishing and this will happen, especially with the story chapters. When this will happen it's probably the best question, as it could happen even in Beta release since right now I'm more focused in putting and testing gameplay elements.

As for the game's genre I want to develop a Visual Novel with adult elements, where the main story will focus around the dead girl you find and sub-stories will revolve around the characters that have been introduced. The sister's story gives much background about the doctor, something like that will be added even for the other characters. Right now I'm not especially fond of how Rita's story is playing out, so expect some changes with her. As I said, the game is in Alpha release, so many things could be completely change if they actually don't work, that's why feedback like yours are gold for me!

0.0.17 Announcement

, so I understand this announcement is way less exciting, but I feel you'll like it anyways. :)
Alpha update 0.0.17, nicknamed "Our Clinic, my Family" will explore the main story arc from the Doctor's relative's story arc, which means a whole new chapter completely different from Erika's, even though the investigation over the dead girl's will be central of course.

It will also include a deeper knowledge of the relative, a chance to deepen your bond with her and learn something more about your relationship as you go further.

Other gameplay elements will be disclosed in the coming days of course, but expect a HUGE improvement of Random Medical Exams this month plus many other features!

Release dates are as follows:

August 31st for 20$ patrons
September 9th for 10$ patrons
September 16th for 5$ patrons
Late October free for all


Thanks for following the game and supporting it!

Be safe and healthy,

Maybe this game should contain a warning about hypochondria and psychosomatic condition.

If you are one of those guys that always think that are sick and even feel the symptoms of sickness, this game is not for you, IMO. Too much information about serious diseases and their symptoms without real medical knowledges can be really counterproductive.

There is already a disclaimer when starting the game.

Attached is the newly released free walkthrough up to release 0.0.13
Please remember that patrons get the latest released one each month with a 90-day early access to the file.

Please @TCMS can you upload this one to the first post? The walkthrough posted there is really old as it misses about 50 pages :)

After the bug happen I quit playing so I will wait till v0.0.16 to try again.
I think I tried in v.0.0.14 and ran into it so I just stop playing.
wait a minute...the the issue of 0.15 is actually ingame? i can't even start 0.15... due to too long file names. welp, at least 0.14 works...

Have you tried shortening the name of the game folder? Not the "game" folder inside....the main folder. I had that problem and fixed my removing any special characters from the name and making it shorter.
there is the main folder named General_Practitioner-0.0.15REP-pc and another folder inside with the actual game named General_Practitioner-0.0.15REP-pc...drag that folder out and rename it General Practitioner or w/e you choose and it will work.
