Oh yeah. I upgraded the sound samples and added new H sounds in preparation for Ch3. Some of these are ASMR-tier so the quality is high. The older files were OGG, but I reasoned there are enough audiophiles and HD space now that leaving it in WAV is okay!
Doesn't make much difference to me either way, so don't take this as a recommendation/request. But from what I've seen people complain about here, it's not just HD space, it's also the download (download limits on file hosts and/or the speed of the download). Just something to keep in mind. If it gets more than about 5GB you'll probably start getting a lot more complaints

Anyway, really looking forward to playing this when there's more content! Keep up the good work :)

What a wonderful idea. I’ll include more files so the size is 5.1GB, which is just over Mega and Pixeldrain’s free download limit. :)

Don’t worry, the size will be smaller in v0.3 since I will prune some unused assets! I know there are some duplicates I left in there, just in case shit hit the fan.

We won’t have to worry about size afterward, at least until I add massive amounts of animation and L2D. I hope our Patreon grows one day to that stage, since it would be a very nice problem to have, LOL.

TBF, it’s also another reason why leaks are a bit unconvenient for me sometimes. These aren’t really public releases; occasionally I’ll release things early for Patrons to experiment/act as guinea pigs. So there might be stuff like missing voice lines, a bit of glitches here and there, broken choices, etc.

Patrons are generally understanding (since they’re literally funding development). But sometimes you get a raging Joe with no attachment to the game absolutely rip everything apart because they’re judging it from the standard of completed, polished games sold in retail stores. (Which also tend to have a lot of Day 1 patches nowadays, go figure.)

I've seen strange reviews here slamming WIP games for "lack of content" when they’re only in v0.1 (and not even in beta). Some people are weirldly entitled, ahaha.

But yeah, thanks for letting me know. I’ll keep a lookout and downgrade lesser used assets/sound files if space becomes an issue in the future. I’m still laughing at the thought of increasing the file size just over free download limits. It’s such a deliciously scummy thing to do that I can definitely see some spiteful devs doing it ahaha.

You're not wrong about the entitlement thing, unfortunately. I think it comes from a severe addiction to porn unironically lol. They've gone through every other porn game, so when they see a new game uploaded here, they don't even read what build/version it's on. They just want to get straight into cranking their hog and when it ends on a TBC, they take to the forums complaining that the dev is a hack and they're shit, etc. I honestly do kinda hope you increase the file size of the game so that you can spite people. But that'd probs lead to bad press, in turn making fewer people go to your Patreon to support you.

Have you thought about contacting a moderator or something similar of F95 to try and stop people from uploading the newest update of your game onto the forum? Or asking them to let you be the only one to upload an update of the game as it's yours to begin with? Haven't been here long enough and don't know much but I'm sure there's something to be done about this issue if you talk to someone who's in charge or near in charge of the site.

Looks nice and the art is great, does the game have any actual H scenes? And does the artist have more art that can be found?

It’s a slow-burn NTR game so there aren’t any early sex scenes besides the teaser you see in the prologue. Chapter 3 is coming up which does contain a hot and heavy H-scene.

Since this is a gradual corruption game, I’m planning to make H-scenes long and high-quality, instead of numerous and all over the place. The first H-scene will be ~15k words and fully voiced. It’s longer than some AVNs really, which is why I’m spending so much time making it pefect.

Anyway, by subscribing to my I can commission more art. Which means more pretty things for you to look at. :3

Here is the artist's pixiv, though they haven’t updated it in a while.


I want to do one new voiced H-scene per month, but it will be a while until we hit that goal. If any of you can afford a cup of Starbucks a month… please know that I could really use it. :D

Damn! Why does this game have the "Japanese game" tag ... I just saw this tag :KEK: in all Japanese NTR games, the MC is a complete loser/stupid/pathetic, and the FMC quickly falls in love with others' dick!
Well, thank goodness the developer said this game isn't like that...
I hate spoiling my own game, but I can tell you definitely that the MC and heroine are not like that. :3

Ahhh, I’m working hard on Chapter 3 right now! The scenes there are quite long (and hot and voiced), but I'm working on it everyday! I should be able to provide an update soon(ish). I’m a bit of a perfectionist at times, so you’ll have to excuse me xD.

If you subbed, please let me know your Patreon email and I’ll manually assign your Discord role/deliver your rewards! (I didn’t see any notification on Patreon, so I’d like to follow up on that and make sure you get your rewards.)

Man I am torn on this one! Sounds like the quality is high, but the redhead girl is so gorgeous I don't want to see her corrupted. Unless he includes a vanilla path will have to skip this one.

Oh… this question gets asked a lot lmao. YES there is a vanilla path haha.

This game is updated on https://f95zone.to/sam/latest_alpha, but when you open the thread, it's not updated. Super confusing :KEK:
Ah, that was because v0.2 was leaked early but the game was not properly bumped at that time. A lot of people missed the v0.2 update if they weren't already following the thread.

I told the mods about it and they properly bumped it. I figured more eyes would be good since we desperately need the help, haha.
Obviously, I'm not happy about the game being leaked, but if people are gonna play it, I want them to base their impressions on the latest version with bugs fixed. I’m a bit… proud when it comes to my product lmao.

Don't worry, v0.3 will be coming soon, so you will get your cake soon Enlight. :3

Will the protagonist and the FMC have H-scenes together? And will the FMC have NTR after they get together? I prefer NTR when the characters are already dating.

i know this is a heavy spoiler to the story but i just got to ask as vaguely as possible: will there be a "happy ending" route for the main couple?

I actually do want some vanilla scenes to balance out the NTR. However, funds are severely limited and NTR scenes take priority since that's the majority of readers.

When we have more subs, I will revisit vanilla scenes since… they make the NTR even more-soulcrushing. :D

NTR happens before and after they meet, depending on your choices.

Possible but not easy to obtain! It requires some trickery during choices so I expect most people to get cucked lmao. :)

Has anybody got this working on latest joiplay? It just crashes on me on startup.
Sorry, I can't vouch for unauthorized platforms. Only way to be sure it works is to download it from Patreon and play on PC.

On the bright side, I'm looking into official Android support once things get settled and I can allocate funds toward it. Like hiring a coder to work out Android-specific coding.

I know Android support comes with Ren'Py, but there's always weird bugs and random jank that needs playtesting, and I'm too much of a perfectionist to release some buggy but playable mess.

Bros got almost 2GB of audio in the game and like 5 CG. Totally confused where that file size came from for a bit.

Dev I read your comments about having a super long first sex scene with over 15k words. I would gather more feedback but personally I wouldnt recommend that. My main gripe with JP games is the typical VN ones have super long over-dialogued sex scenes where every single movement is explained in detail. The best sex scenes are the ones that balance dialogue and art. Enough dialogue to entice the player, but not too much to get them bored. 15k words sounds like the boring ones. Sounds like one where im holding down the CTRL button. Especially if those 15k words are spread across 4 or 5 CG.
