(used MEGA) The PC version of the game works, but the Mac doesn't open at all. It tries to but instantly stops.

That old fart ruins the mood of the game. I liked earlier version 4/5 but now that old fart drops the whole shit 2/5. It's like forcibly invented and glued on. It gets the impression that dev wants to get rid of this game as soon as possible and move on to another project. Then another thing that made me wonder what the difference was medium / hard in this version. Both follow the same path.

When you choose medium you can later choose between the easy or the hard way. And yeah the old fart ruined the mood. Drop to a 0/5 for me.

OK, here are my opinions. Note it's ok to disagree with me, many people do LOL.

  • Player named characters often lead to blank, generic molds to implant themselves onto. Personally I like a character to roleplay, and not to play myself. (Especially when you are dealing with rape LOL)
  • Wife is an asshole. Feels like a stereotype so we don't feel bad about the abuse. Feels like lazy writing.
  • Dialogue is acceptable. Note it's not good, and real people do not talk like this... but for this site it's average.
  • Main character is an entitled jackass. Not really my cup of tea but I guess it fits the theme of the game.
  • Hard Rape (not like date rape) is about power and control. He doesn't really have control over the daughter... Why wouldn't she tell the police at her age? There needs to be something to explain this... Is it fear? Is it dependence because of a disability? There needs to be something.
  • Cheap animations. Two frame repeating... There are some 3 frame animations which personally I don't like... It would be better to have more stills than this, or make a proper smooth animation.
  • I am disappointed with the vaginal sex scene. Daughter loses her virginity and enjoys being raped. That just doesn't happen. Talk to a women and ask about her first time, and most say it was underwhelming. Not only that this is rape which would make her enjoy it less... If you are going to do rape then do rape, she shouldn't be enjoying this at all.
  • Game goes off the rails when the wife finds out and instead of calling the cops she gets aroused... WTF.
  • Plot is idiotic.
  • WOW the black doctor looks SOOOOOOOOO bad. You are better than this creator.
  • One plus is that there are actual different paths. A soft, and hard path that lead the game in very different directions. Very good.

This is pretty bad. Rape isn't used correctly, cheap animations, plot is dumb. What needs to be done to fix this... making each character have a personality and not be a stereotype. Obviously improving animations or removing them and having many more stills instead.

Saying that this is currently below average, and I like dark themes... 2/5

As far from what i read the comments puts dev in a tigh spot but i think this game is okay compared to some or many Japanese eroge visual novels where the whole point of logic and ethics are useless great game played every route loved the hardest, most loved the middle hard route, dev clearly pointed out defacts of modern society and how rapidly the ideology of people changing like money money no feelings valued greater than money and necessity .Graphics need a upgrade.

Hello people! I see that many people didnt like the update, in my mind it makes sense but still Im writing the story after every update so It cant be how I want it, Sasha is actually important for the plot, and he will be more important in the next updates. No one is dead in the game and there will be no NTR, some things are changed in the development, like the medium path was removed because having two paths takes a lot of time but three would be impossible for me to work with, so
do you have sex in this game cause i dont see vaginal sex tag but i do know some games dont have the tag but still have sex involve
Yes
Double U Tee Eff ... that went a bit weird.
I dont really understand what does this mean, sorry

What happened to the face?
Bad render quality due to render time, I have a list of render to re-do
Liked the soft and hard path, how change the mom and daughter personallity is really good. The onlty thing that I don't understand is the Medium Path, there are no difference between the others. You choose medium and later the game let you choose Soft or Hard, if you choose soft the only change is a dialogue and then everything is the same and that goes too for the Hard Path. I don't see the point for the Medium path.
After I added the medium path I understand that it was too much to handle in terms of time and story so i made a link from medium to soft/hard
Meh Sasha apearance wasnt necessary i would prefer a train your slave game than one with a mind control thing
Sasha is important for the plot, this game is not an rpg, is like a story based game
btw... just as info for dev.

they are an error at very end of game. something about next chapter or something. its at the very beginning so no dramatic, but still happen.

edit : i mean "very end"... fuck my english ,i need sleep -_-
Ill take a look
Is there any compressed version available?
Actually the standard version is the compressed version, images after render and denoising are 6mb and not 500kb
i hate anything that hurt a womans, be it in a game with graphics or text, i dont like this game anymore after this and not only because is fucking sick to hurt a woman, but also because the plot is the worst i have ever seen in a game. :FacePalm:
I mean its sick to hurt anyone, a man, a woman, a dog. I do understand your critic for the game, Its fine with me but I dont understand the thing about hurting a woman, no human should be hurted, in real life.


I'll still defend the concept of this game, but it is pretty clear now that the writer has never interacted with another human being in the real world.
BRUHHH

No, I dont want to move in a new project also because I still dont have anything ready to put into renpy, Im just trying to give a sense to the plot, Its the first time I write a plot by myself and I clearly have a lot to learn.
NTR? The developer said it wouldn't be in the game.
No NTR!

  • I understand, yeah, in some plots Im writing there is no Mc name choice
  • Fair enough
  • I could do better, but even my english is still bad, I hope that living in UK will help me
  • Yeah, I like a dicco as Mc
  • The daughter and wife personal choices will be explained in the next updates
  • I see, I cant make proper animations but I dont know if everyone would like a still frame instead of the 2/3frames atl
  • Well its rape but at the same time something makes her like it so this will also be explained in the next updates
  • The daughter and wife personal choices will be explained in the next updates
  • I hope that my next games will be made with a better plot
  • I think Foreman is a good looking doctor, maybe Im a little bit of an asshole to made him bald, he must hate me
  • Yep, I like to make choice that change the game flow, even if it adds a lot of work to do
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah, the first versions frames are better because I did them in Italy when I had a more powerfull pc and I also had two computers so I could make scenes while one was rendering but then I had to move to UK and I couldnt take my desktop with me and for now I dont have enough money to buy a new pc. But I do understand your review, I just wanted to reply at your impression! Thanks!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks to eveyone, I appreciate every comment, I feel sorry but at the same time I have to do what I feel.
Maybe you noticed that I didnt use the apostrophe in my replies, well Im in ubuntu live and my keyboard is not working properly, this night something happened, my ssd decided to give me a 3F0 error so now Im in panic because I dont know if Ive lose all my data or If my motherboard is broken, Ive ordered a ssd m.2 case to usb so I can try to see in my sisters pc if I still have the data or if I have to buy a new ssd and cry until I will make all my files back. I feel quite bad right now, I saw the increase in patreons so I was ready to buy a backup hard disk but I didnt expect something to happen right now. I hope to solve the problem as soon as possible.

Was typing all the following before Dev. post his reply. Happy to see him stay positive!

I saw many adverse comment in the latest update and was hesitating to download. Just go though 2 path yesterday myself. It is much better then the controversy implied.
First thing first, going though the game, we should keep in mind that MC is complete asshole. Dev. maintain his characteristic well, a longterm suppressed husband vent his anger to everyone around him. He is not to be like or associated with. It is simply a storytelling thing.
The game developed, in a matching way, a chaotic, raging and emotionally capricious atmosphere. All those are typical family abuse and mental meltdown factors, and shouldn't have judged as bad writing. The Rough Path especially scored high on presenting that; to the point I think Dev. may have faced some real case irl.
The very late plot including Sasha need more polishing. The old guy model may not fit in well but is acceptable; his weird scale of body in some screen need to be adjusted however. Though, it show a deeper back story Dev. is planning. I first downloaded in 0.3 for the unique hardcore SC, but Dev. may have surprised me with more than that. That said, I would not like to have supernatural/sci-fi factored in, including mindcontrol. Current realistic setting is already rigorous and self-consistent.

There are some plot/setting flaw that I would like the Dev. to consider on.
The daughter transformation in restaurant is too smooth and fast for my. Introducing second time abuse in car and making her blackout first may be better.
Aged 20 but still in school uniform is odd, also a bit old to be that attached to home. I do note that it mentioned she have low self esteem. Let's develop more on that: is she a marginal autism? a social anxiety?
In many cases, the family abuser will show alterative aggression and sorriness toward victim in order to maintain control. Currently, that have been implemented at Soft Path but not the Hard one.
There are still some untranslated Italians(?).

In short, 0.4 is performing well for me. Rendering to me is on average and that is enough. It is still too soon to call a miss. I am looking forward 0.5.
