You’ve barely recovered from the last GTU update, and the dev team is already back with another story update!
As part of their 2024 goals on Patreon, they’re committed to monthly updates this year, so while you're diving into this version, the next one is already in production.
Changelog for GTU V0.34:
260 new renders
New animations
6 new languages added based on last month’s community poll on Patreon — check your settings to see if your native language is included! (If it is, react to this message with your country’s flag)
Vanessa’s path from the last update is now unlocked
Click to expand...
Considering that Vanessa is an alternative scene at the party, i.e. if you follow her path you will not have a scene with Anna!
If you need choose between them, it becomes obvious that the scene with Vanesa is not needed at all!

In continuation - we have a psychological conversation with Deborah - which actually could have been spent on fewer renders and a small teaser scene with Bella!

Well, no one should be surprised when people see a changelog with 260 renders, but output is 10 minutes of gameplay!

Considering kinkbr target is updating monthly, why should we expect to have longer gameplay? There is no much games that have better playout than this for a release this fast, maybe some games with bigger teams and full time job on the game.
kinkbr asked about how we want to receive updates and people that wanted faster updates won. For the others there is always a possibility to play each six months. He didn't ask for this because he have a superpower in creating games, but to know how to divide the story to reach his target.
While I'm not paying for the games, I'm greatful that I have from time to time something to relax, I take them as they are.

You know, i’d rather wait three months and get at least half an hour of play and at least 1 sex scene with a character that interests to me(600+renders)!
Otherwise, you will have to skip several updates yourself to enjoy the gameplay at least a little.

Hey kinkbr,
When you use my French translation, it would be nice if you could say thank you and above all use it without adding any mistakes and also take the images...

What do you mean everything happens pretty quickly? the game is two years old and barely has any content, this update doesn't even have any sex scene and only just a few renders

Forget about how long it's been in development. Replay the game from the beginning and you'll see that, in in-game time and character development, the relationships with the girls escalate too fast.

The best example is Sarah: at the beginning of the game no one would have told that she would throw herself at the MC and have full sex after just 3 or 4 interactions between them. They literally interact with each other a few times before fucking. They met and started off the wrong foot, then they inspectioned the rooms together, she could see that he was a nice guy who could be trusted, then one more conversation.... And suddenly, without any other warming up, she demands to be fucked. It doesn't make sense for her. It makes sense for a character like Reina, but not for someone like Sarah or even Anna.

I may be alone here, but these games are much more rewarding for me when there is a relationship build-up that makes those scenes warranted and exciting. Sometimes it seems like we can only go to extremes: either you have to milk the shit out of your game for years before anything happens, or every single girl has to be fucked right away even if it's totally out of character for her.
Those similarities to Fresh Women (again, a clear inspiration) prevent me from liking this game more than I do and from deciding to support the dev. I'm sorry, but I just wanted to be 100% honest.

not every update for every game needs a sex scene..... I do more or less agree with him . Granted im way behind on updates but I kind of agree with him sex scenes happen to fast at least last I played the game. Like with that older lady / MILF at the time it was forced no idea if it still is . It felt really weird and happened for no reason at all

Actually, I'm OK with Brenda's scene; I think it made sense at that point.
These games always benefit from some sex early on, and instead of one of those cliché dream scenes it's always better to introduce a slutty character willing to fuck the MC since day 1. AVOIDABLE, of course.
Brenda is a hot MILF with a strong personality who wants to get a taste of that naive country boy and takes advantage of him, if you decide to let her. She's a confirmed side chick anyway,

so her having sex with the MC right away is not a big deal. That was her first relevant role in the game; I assume the second one is to create some conflict with Anna to spice things up.

When I criticized how fast the relationship were progressing, I was rather thinking about the MC's roommates and Anna, the real LIs.
Reina is a weird sex addict, but the MC should have had to work more before having full sex with the others, and I include Bella even though she's a flirty one. I'm not asking for a cheap "ladder to heaven" type of relationship development (first groping, then kissing, then boobjob, etc.), but jumping straight into sex kinda ruined the experience a bit for me too.

PS: In my opinion, the fact that Monica, the celebrity isn't a main LI is another blunder. She's been hyped multiple times even in the game intro, and her looks are among the best in the game. I even remember people saying that they tried the game after seeing her in the previews. It will be a huge disappointment for many people.

(*) Sarah and Deborah BEST GYALS! :HideThePain:

Unpopular opinion, those 4 are better than some main girls, but well, happens.

huh, this is a pretty good game, but it needs some render clean ups, a bit of proofreading... and a DESPERATELY URGENT name change, and a logo change... both the name of the game and the logo, not only don't fit the game, they actually give you a very VERY wrong idea about it. :confused:
