i don't get it. this game has so much potential where ya could play as a corrupt doctor leading a small clinic. yet all the game has become so far is a half baked wanna be doctor sim with monotone and superbly boring gameplay elements that you have to play over and over and over again in order to get the most money. and the funny thing is, if you don't know anything about certain illnesses and use wikipedia you will fall hard on the floor, 'cause wikipedia recommends totally different treatments to a certain illments than the game does xD.


...
still, thanks for the changelog!

Greetings fellow doctors!

General Practitioner launch was a huge success for the game, I really didn't expect so many people would've played the game and for a very small software house like mine (I'm basically developing the whole game by myself) it's a very exciting surprise!

Of course, releasing the game also brought some issues, as the many months of alpha and beta testing were apparently not enough to cancel every bug from the game. Still, the game is very big and with lots of branches and choices and it took me some time to find and fix everything. This is NOT an excuse but a sincere explanation of what happened in the first few days.

I apologize for any discomfort you might have experienced while playing the game.

I already released a number of fixes which took care of the most annoying bugs
(the first one on the very first day of release) and reports of annoyed players dropped a lot.

I am also listening to your feedback of course, because like I promised General Practitioner is not being abandoned after release, on the contrary you can expect a lot of free patches and DLCs in the future.

With the upcoming 1.3 patch I'm going to release in a few hours more bugs will be solved. Not only that: I'm also introducing two new functions to the game:

New Game Plus
To unlock this feature you will need to finish the game at least once (up to the point where end credits are shown) and start a new game. A menu prompt will then ask you if you wish to start from scratch or from a New game plus.



New Game+ retains the following informations for your new game:

  • Money
  • Medical Items owned
  • Relationship Levels with Romance partners (except Christina)
  • Skills
  • Waiting Room unlocks


It will NOT include people you met in the game nor already performed exams and events as they are part of the story. For the same reason other events such as pool subscription, gym subscription, Norah's meeting etc., are not unlocked.

Chapter Selection



An option to choose which chapter to play has been added to the game.

You can go to the Church to "Meditate on your life" and choose a specific chapter to jump to, even previously played ones.

Please be aware that skipping makes the game to assume certain choices have been made by default. As the in-game calendar isn't updated (that's because events can play in different days depending on choices), it also advances events ahead of time, so you could end up playing the "Christmas Dinner" event in June for example. I recommend you to use it after you finished the game at least once.



Also, many events that depend on your romance paths (i.e. Elisa's whole pregnancy story) are not available to skip upon, since not setting the proper variables would cause the game to behave erratically.

Ultimately, this feature is not the proper way to play the game and it could lead to unexpected behavior. Still, if you wish to play chapters you never saw in your first playthrough without needing to re-play the whole game, this feature is what you're looking for.

New chapters will be added in future updates, so stay tuned.

I hope you're enjoying the game, I'm working hard on it and on Yomi Alliance as well, to bring you dozens of hours of fun. If you enjoy your time with my games, then my goal has been reached!

Be safe and healthy,

ANDREA

Update 1.3 was pulled because it cause many new problems and bugs but here is the main things it tried to fix.
Just remember it was pulled and will have more in the update when it does get released again.



  • Clicking anywhere when displaying a dialogue during online shopping won't result in accidental selections anymore
  • Fixed an issue which made the game refer to male children as "girl"
  • Fixed a missing image during Aaron's Three's a Crowd conversation
  • Winning the most difficult challenge against Koola in the gym will now grant you 1000$ as intended (from 100)
  • Fixed a crashing issue during Dwayne's examination
  • Fixed an inconsistency with a dialogue line from "Living Together" chapter if you didn't invite Claudia to the Festival
  • Fixed an inconsistent line of dialogue regarding a promise you made to Claudia if you never made it in the first place
  • Fixed inconsistencies during Medical Board's advice on Kamil's first examination
  • Fixed inconsistencies with Erika's advice during some random examinations
  • The Interactive phone has been restored from earlier alpha builds.
  • New Game+ has been introduced in the game. To unlock it you will need to finish the game at least once (up to the point where end credits are shown) and to Start a new game. The game will then ask you if you wish to start from scratch or from a New game plus.

    New Game+ retains your money, medical items bought, relationship levels with every potential romance (except Christina) and skills. It will also unlock the Waiting Room right from the beginning.
    It will NOT include people you met in the game nor already performed exams and events. Other events (pool subscription, gym subscription, Norah's meeting) are not unlocked.

  • Added the "Experienced Doctor" achievement unlockable by starting a New Game Plus



Thank you for playing the game!

Be safe and healthy,





In order to investigate some issues reported with the latest 1.3 update (mostly situations that were not included in the update but ceased to function nevertheless), I restored the earlier 1.2.4 update until the cause of the issue has been found.

I apologize for the delay and I hope to bring you the exciting 1.3 as soon as possible.

Be safe and healthy, thank you for your support!

Completed? So fast? How is that possible? That's a wonderful news! Although, I expected it to be 'in progress' for next year.

Just because the game says completed dev will still add to it and will also include DLC to boot.



Where are we going next... to the stars, to hell and beyond!
Our future, your fun
Greetings fellow doctors!

As General Practitioner is approaching its Beta and Final Release due in December, we started planning our game development future for the foreseeable future, and we're excited to announce you a few projects we have in store, the first of which will be Alpha-Ready when GP will be finalized.

2020 will be full of projects I'm very excited about:
- Yomi Alliance: a sci-fi Adult RPG/Visual Novel (see next)
- The Coroner Saga: Episodes 3, 4 and 5
- New DLCs and updates for General Practitioner, many of which for free
- The Devil's Shoes, a brand new 8 hours long erotic videogame
- The Interview, a General Practitioner erotic spinoff 6 hours long

While some of our projects will be announced on a later date, today I want you to know about .

Hi all, I've made a compressed version!

General Practitioner [v1.2.4] [Bruni Multimedia] Compressed

Original Size: 2.16 GB
Compressed: 329 MB

Tools used: Unren v0.8 by Sam
Cruncher v0.4.1 by bas

This version is UNOFFICIAL. Lossy compression used. Compression reduces image/sound/video/animation quality and can cause the game to break, download at your own risk!

PC/Mac/Linux: | |

Enjoy! :D

Chill ... have fun ... devs have lots of ways to take the story ... so many medical dramas to draw
inspiration from they would go amiss should this story not stretch beyond game scope/limits.

Dev announced future updates
Okay, I thought you were trying to tell me that my compression was incomplete. :LOL:

I didn't say it was the final or complete version in my post, so I'm still kind of confused as to why you're telling me this. :ROFLMAO:
