I think V0.4f has been put up on patreon. What's new in it?
Almost nothing, tbh. There's a fishing mini game, some dialogue fixes I noticed, you can not be a fat fairy, but Lel will still call you a fat fairy. The murder mystery storyline continues, but only for like, 5 minutes.

Can you please share the update?
You can support the creator with a few bucks and get the update right away or just wait for a few weeks until it becomes public.

I found this game a few months ago and i can say its pretty good in its current (unfinished) state - and have the potential to become a lot better.

Its not perfect by any means, but its constantly improved and updated every month.

The Good things
- Great characters
- Interesting story and dialogs
- Loot puppies
- You can choose your party to some extend ( except a few core members )
- Great renders and scenes
- alot of kinks are covered ( or at least hinted in the game ) - from standard to some pretty hardcore ones ( like, domination, humiliation, BDSM and a lot more ) with some great sub/dom content already in the game
- pretty ambitious development goals with a lot of different paths, relationships and 3 body types to chose from,
- active developer that works full time on the game, reads the forums and that actually listens to suggestions ( this was one of the things that actually convinced me to support the game )
- Loot puppies : )


Cons
- all the problems that arise from those ambitious development goals with a lot of different paths,relationships and 3 body types to chose from - so if you follow only one path / character the updates will feel a little light on content ( and probably becase the game became so complex - we dont see anymore scenes in the real world, at least for now )
- active developer that reads the forums and that actually listens to suggestions/requests ( people sometimes ask for things that are pretty hard to do )
- transformation aspect of the game can be improved - i mean you start as pretty normal ( socially awkward ) guy/girl but you accept your new body / role in the party too quickly - almost without doubts or any internal....fight. I thing this can be fixed with just a few added sentences here and there - that explain better and flesh out that part of the game.

All and all - its a project worth keeping an eye on.

That's too bad... I like being reluctant in the 'free use' roles....
The problem arises when the character acts reluctant even though the most lewd options are chosen constantly and often, it makes no sense. She has to make up her minds at some point.

I made up my mind to try to get myself into the most trouble possible while still being reluctant.
Ever heard of masochism? Some people Enjoy the pain.

A reluctante/masochist submissive only makes sense from the perspective of how she interacts with others characters, but not in a narrative sense, like her inter monologues and such, those should be clear. And even if you claim "she's lying to herself", this artifice can only work for a while before getting really annoying.

One man's irk is another man's kink, i guess... One of the hottest adult games i've played (and many others, judging by its ratings) is Chloe18, in which the MC goes through 3 whole games internally battling with being perceived as a slut while exuberantly engaging in the sluttiest acts at every corner. The whole idea behind that is that she's clinging to her innocence and modesty and that's what makes it so goddam hot - to see such image of purity surrendering herself so completely to utter lust. The fact that she just gets up and immediately starts rationalizing herself out of her depravity as a victim of circumstances might often be comical, but never annoying if you ask me, specially considering how rewarding that whole mechanic is.

Same thing with the sissy theme really, nobody in their right mind wants to be known as one, it makes every sense for the surrender to be reluctant, while still secretly desirable.

It's kind of like being an alcoholic. You hate drinking, you know it hurts you, but you still keep doing it. (only it's sex and near-rape scenarios instead of alcohol)

Good analogy, well put. Both behaviours have often the same destructive drives, which means the self-loathing usually leads to the addiction, not necessarily the other way around. When that's the case, there's a huge problem. If it's simple hedonism and self-discovery, like in Chloe's case, i'd say the shame can be more destructive than the addiction - slut away!

I tried one of the Chloe18's but threw it away too much dick not enough pussy.
Don't want to derail this thread, but that's genuinely surprising! Female protagonist, no futa or gay content, and yards of carpet-munching in those games, how much pussy does it take to get you off, man?!

All carpet-munching 0 dicks is the best as I don't play female protagonist to go after dick I play them to go after pussy. Also if she's a lesbian then that would mean there is gay content but instead of being called gay she's called a lesbian instead.

myuhinny Gotcha. Very narrowband gameplay there, but to each their own. Agree with the gay definition, it's just not the one in use on F95 tags, and it's a good compromise, since there's no word for male lesbianism :p

Please don't get me wrong. I love well-written reluctant characters, I really do. What I meant was it takes a bit of work to make them credible. For example, lets assume Sparkle reluctantly accepted to wear the bit-gag the first time, and, in the future, is ordered to do it again. It's perfectly acceptable to express reluctance in a sense that she doesn't like it/feels embarrassed, or going even further and intentionally keep doing gagged noises hoping to be punished, but not in sense she gets genuinely shocked at the request, since she already did it before. The same principle applies to the sexual acts.

It takes a lot of work to create a good narrative, and in my opinion the author has done a amazing job so far, otherwise I wouldn't even bother to post.

Agree on the amazing job. I almost missed out on this gem, the premise wasn't very appealing and i just decided to give it a go on a whim. So glad i did. Great humor, art, plot, characters... instant watch-list material.

I get what you mean and i'm all for a strong narrative. In a non-linear game i'm afraid you'll sometimes have to sacrifice a bit of continuity. As long as it's not immersion-breaking i can live with it and didn't really found myself being annoyed by it. Everyone's got a different threshold though... so good points for the dev to polish, if it's not too much of a coding minefield for a marginal gain. On a large story arch with many varying branches, piling up if statements for previous events to output a single different line or two of dialogue seems overkill for such a light-hearted adventure like this. Barring that, i'm with ya.

The loot-puppy/free-use storyline is amazing. I think the reluctance is key. I like how there is some degree of consent involved, but I'd like to see that pushed as far as possible so that we're effectively being forced into it through various means of manipulation (blackmail, exploiting our compassion, gaslighting etc.) from multiple characters. It's especially great that Lel is now starting to abuse us as well since we only got ourselves into this situation to help her. Hope to see that progress a lot further. I will try to refrain from playing any updates until there is a significant amount of new content added, though it won't be easy!

I mean after such a long time you would expect somebody to subsscribe to his Patreon and start getting the posts.

For me I'm waiting for more content with Lel - biter - Harmony - Twig - Rupaul. Not sure where Jane will fit in there once she's added but I'll probably be going after her as well. Harmony is one that I'm interested in the most since the player hasn't really done anything with her yet.
