Thank you so much for the insight! I've seen a lot of games in the 15-30 USD range and think my game is comparable (if not a bit longer). Story is about 3-5 hours depending on how much of the optional content/how quick someone goes through it.

I've played a lot of those games myself and though I enjoyed them I also really didn't think they were worth those prices for the gameplay time. So 9.99-11.99 is something I'm really comfortable with charging as a fair price. And hopefully of course will mean more people buy/play it.

My only concern with charging a somewhat lower than average price is that people might assume the game is not good/very short because of that. Think thats a valid concern?
Cant wait for full release


Love the choice If u want to top or bottom

What kind of content will there be in here? Anything dom/sub?
The first game focuses on the first few days after Sam moves in with Michael and what transpires. In this game he is still coming to terms with his sexuality so nothing super kinky happens. Though he sees some dom/sub stuff.

In the next game I'll ramp up the sex stuff to be a bit more adventurous as he gets more comfortable/confident in the gay world.

The goal for the game was too be pretty realistic/grounded and not have people have sex within seconds of meeting (except for the demo which is literally a late night hook up so that's kind of the point)

Hopefully that answers your question!

Is this a prequel/sequel? i've tried to look it up, searching the creator, etc, but it seems like this is the only game called "heatwave", i didn't even follow the dev on any social media and this is the first time i've heard of him

which is so fucking crazy de ja vu to me because i 100% sure have saw "Heatwave", that banner, and those characters before

This is the very first game. I've been trying to show it off on loads of social media so it's possible you saw it in passing somewhere on Reddit/X or something?

you're right. i saw you few months ago asking in reddit which banner is better, the day one or the night one, and the game was just called "Heatwave", that's why when i saw "Sam's story" i thought this was a spin off or something.

Good job tho, the game genuinely look interesting, the sex scene on the demo felt natural and all the characters are hot.

Current plan is for base price to be 11.99 USD, discounted to 9.99 in first week. (with steam local pricing so cheaper in countries not the US)

Do you think that's reasonable? Always open to feedback!
As long as players can refuse or avoid unwanted s*xual scenes, I would be happy to purchase this game.
