The ONLINE version can take a long time to load the first time because it requires you to download all of the assets on a slow (slowwwwww) server. For the OFFLINE version, if it takes more than a few seconds, it means you are experiencing an issue that has been frequently mentioned and discussed in this thread, but unfortunately you'd have to comb through more than 50 pages to glean useful information. I can't think of a specific search term that would help, so I am not making one of those "use the search function!" responses :). But several solutions have been offered:

One recommendation to try is right-click: Run as administrator. Or, if you have previously installed the online version, some have suggested deleted everything you can find in the C:users>[username]>appdata>LocalLow>sandlust games ltd folder and then running a clean reinstall. There are many posts saying they've tried both these solutions and nothing has worked, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head. Most of us have never experienced this problem, so it's hard to offer much help (sorry!), but it's been mentioned by many people, so it's a legitimate issue. Hopefully anyone who has solved it will chime in!

I used the search :p...

Question: When you give last quarter to Julia, is there something to expect after? Current level is 6/6 and all unique events have been grinded through. But the Quest log for "Progress" quest is still not finished... Don't know what to do to finish it or see more

I downloaded game and i just remembered...i tried this game before and didnt like it, its like bb but different. If dev continued with same gui, etc it would be amazing but this always happens, you play great game it gets abandoned and someone is doing remake or whatever and ruins it completely.

That decision to put two main characters with different stories is fucking stupid, but I guess the devs had no choice since the pornographic content was arriving too fast.

Wow, dev is combining the Glamour and BB. He is deleting the Alex and adding Max as secondary MC.
Guess who is coming back!!! ERIC! Yay (sarcasm), dev said that he will be optional though..
Dev said that Alex is the copy of the Kate.. I mean, you are the one who created Alex then delete yourself first.
Joke aside, adding Max will be a good addition. However, dev should one MC first. 2 doesn't work. There are examples. Finish one MC then go for another.

After the other Julia and Nick events, when Julia and Nick have gone to bed, 23:00-ish, the option will appear among the couch choices.

I decided I might as well just not play this game. It seems quite grindy and I'd rather not do that for the content that's currently in the game.

I do however, like that he's putting BB in the Glamour game. Maybe in time I'll come back to this game, but for now, I think I'll just look at pictures of it instead.

As some of you probably remember all images from BB were full screen size and it had several drawbacks. For example, characters were always wearing the same clothes in every periodic event. Which is why the game had tiers for clothing, when some big event would change what everyone was wearing. From a technical point, displaying images this way is easier, but it gets stale.
Another restriction the game had was inability to have dynamic, well, anything. The game had very rigid schedule, without players input everyone was always doing the exact same thing at the exact same time.
Glamour, on the other hand, uses sprites, so a breakfast can have Alice wearing a uniform or Ann in a bathrobe if she just came from the shower, they can have different food on the plates (unlike Julia and her never changing eggs. We plan on adding some variety in her menu too, by the way.).
And while creating sprites takes more time, we hope it will make the game more interesting and will be worth it.
Currently we're making sprites for key characters in different situations wearing different clothes in different times of day. After that we'll start working on unique events. First of them will be similar to BB, but we'll be making them more interesting and fresh so you don't have a deja vu.

Here's an example of a breakfast scene from BB:

Damm the nostalgia.

You know I kinda gave up on Glamour, mostly because of the DRM and the grind. If the game was released without those two things it would be so much better.

The other major problem is content, the game just completed a year of development and is a wide as a lake but as shallow as s puddle. The things that pisses me off even more is that the little content added is actually kind of good.

Yet here we are ready to expand to game even further this time reboting BB, in the process trowing away another year of development and the hopes and dreams of people waiting for 0.14, and playing with our nostalgia. I know this was already posted but I really think it applies here.


Such a waste really, despite all of it's flaws Glamour could be a much better game. The offline version is a start and maybe if we bitch enough DS might reduce the grind.

Oh who am I fooling, I just forget about this come back in a year and download the CG. Maybe we can be at the same level that BB was by 2020.
