As I said You are free to suggest an alternative I would gladly listen if there was a good alternative.
I am sorry that you are angry at me just because I locked Optional feature in a Free game.
Thank you for the interest in the game. ❤
Why do you need a suggestion for a feature every H game has as is. Either way, patreon is supposed to be for people who want to support you, not unlock things in the game. I only ever supported ICSTOR, which we all know how milfy city went (or didn't.) So begging people for money for a base feature is not a good look my dude.

Of my last 10 played AVNs 5 of them have a gallery. There's usually quite a bit of work that goes into programming them, and as I understand that's not an issue unique to renpy. Often times when a game does have a gallery it's because someone made a mod for it, or the game's being co-programmed by a modder like Shaddy who did the work.
If you want replays then just save at then start of every H scene.

SavourSaboteur gallery is not core element for a porn game. If it were every porn vn would have it. They don't.
Those games takes time to make, devs have to offer something in return for those supporting. You are free to suggest an alternative I would gladly listen if there was a good alternative.
Either way. I can see you are not interested in supporting devs. It's okay.
Yet still, thank you for the interest in the project ❤
yeah sure make the argument its not a core element (accessing previously obtained scenes in a game where many make it their objective to obtain said scenes) make the argument that its fine to lock it behind a paywall but dont try to argue it isnt scummy when locking the gallery behind a 20$ (a month) paywall i could pay a whore 20$ to give me a handjob you know? is the gallery gonna magically give me a handjob? you know what most porn developers patreons contain? early access to the next version in return for supporting the development which is offered in the 20$ tier already

but sure tell me how "oh im just looking for means to support my game development yeah sure if you wanna go down the road of an easy way to access scenes in a porn game where the objective (for many) is to collect scenes isnt a core mechanic of porn games then go for it but dont try to claim it isnt scummy

I can't invite anyone to the guild opened 3 points on the map, is that all I can do or am I missing something?

I literally can't remember my last H game without a gallery. It takes no more than an hour or two to program in (unless you are a novice/journeyman.) We are talking about a novice dev that is begging for money. You can defend him all you want, but I would like to ignore this game as there is only 3 koikatsu scenes.

seems like this dev has already lost 6 or 7 supporters on patreon because of this poor decision.

Oh thx for the game, i think that it is necessary to indicate in the game that this is all that is in the game for now)
I am kind of thinking of a way to do that.
There was quite a a bit of questions like that. I am not sure how will I exactly solve that.
Since I cannot make every dialogue part of quest.
I cannot also do checks manually for all dialogues since its very prone to errors from my side, also quite irritating if it will be missable by user.
the end screen somewhat works as an estimate but not exactly 100% accurate either. So I am not sure
I could maybe make a walkthrough but I am not fan of walkthroughs
.46 i only added back wip on the quests.

I am surprised to see how harsh people are going in on the dev over the gallery. Now I'm not a fan of locking things behind a paywall and who is really? But there are far worse things out there like actually paywalling major plot points, 1/3rd of the scenes in the game, or even nudity which other devs have done before.

A gallery is a nice qol feature that basically saves the player the effort of replaying the game to view scenes that they really liked as well as saving the player the effort of making countless saves so they don't have to play from scratch to do that. It is not a necessary feature. Though I'm always grateful when a dev decides to implement it. But nobody starts breaking down a dev's door if they don't add one so that's a clear indication that it's not a core mechanic. Now $20 a month for access to the gallery is...steep. That's not the kind of money everyone is going to to be comfortable throwing around and I'd get if people were pushing to have that reward accessible to cheaper tiers on patreon. Seeing as it is a feature a good couple people want maybe making it more accessible might even be more profitable in the long run? Who knows it's entirely up to the dev to decide that.

But yeah I don't like it when people are so harsh to a dev who has been so active in the community and stuck around regardless of any shit that they've had to deal with. This dev has a very regular update schedule and a strict but fair division between early patreon access and free access that they provide of their own volition. There is no content withheld from us on here it's all just delayed slightly. Well with the exception of the gallery. But yeah I just wanted to say remember the dev is doing this with the intention of having it be profitable as they probably spend a shit-ton of energy, time and resources to make this game into reality. That and they are a human being and not some cold, creation machine who you just throw demands at to make things happen. If you keep wearing a dev down you only make it harder for them to be passionate about their project and that could result in a game nobody is happy with.

it's seems that i can't do anything after getting released from jail and talking to the guild girl. i can only talk to kanae (the girl that guard the gate) for ask to recruit her and that's it. is that the end of the content? (sorry for my bad english)

Thank you for saying that. If I said half of this I would still have the same backlash. Yet here goes another two words...
I trully started to understand that even when devs are using this site for gaining traction why they aren't active in thier own community. There is no way to deal with this kind of pointless backlash. Alot of the people especially here would just want everything for free. Yet they can't see that a lot of the devs literally are slaving away entirety of their free time...for months. What to do they get in return? 'Make everything free you scummy idiot'...
The funny thing is...If I would make main story content paywalled, like some games do I would literally make at least 3x amount of money. There is indisputable data to support that.

If you keep wearing a dev down you only make it harder for them to be passionate about their project and that could result in a game nobody is happy with.
It's exactly like you are saying. It is AFTER I read this kind of backlash I start thinking "should I make the main story content paywalled, show them wtf it trully means core mechanic". It is not the other way around.

Either way, Thank you ❤

man this game crashes so much i haven't have a game crash this much since freaking much since like day 1 cyberpunk im not even sure what is causes the crashes either. also it seems like a lot things just.. dont work? try to skip text never works try to fix options doesn't work either or just straight up crashes weird

also over the whole gallery thing that isn't cool imo but also this is a pirate site... so we know down the line someone going post the code for it most likey later when the game has a lot more stuff ( or someone would just mess with the files and do it their self over the game) and im pretty sure the dev is doing this cause need more money and that be a easy way for more money to lock it behind 20$ for the gallery ( so ubisoft/EA levels of damn) but meh who knows not like a lot hentai game devs west wise ever get done with their games anyway at least the ones i seen

also random question why the heck can i not overwrite a save? unless im some how missing on how to do so cause atm it seems like i gotta keep make a new manual save every single time?

Thanks for trying out the game. ❤
It would be hard to identify those problems with this limited information. Some of the things were changed in .46 so we'll see if any of this helped.

Overwrite a save is todo which wasn't focused due to lower priority. There is Q.SAVE on the bottom, also under f5. Yet I will be doing this sooner rather than later.
