Hmm. No idea if that happens with the latest one, as I don't have a device I could try it on. At least I don't recall anyone mentioning any problems with it.
I've downloaded it and I'll give it a try, I've not tried it before because I have a laptop tp play games on.
Tom, thanks. I don't expect everyone to be able to be a patron and support can come in many forms. Even just peeking in and chatting about the game tbh. So...don't be a stranger
Shouldn't those links be at the OP for better visualization ?
I think, sadly, you may be right.I think that is what happened to most of us that tried to play it first time like a regular porn game, it takes a little adjustment to start playing based upon real choices instead of just jumping to the hoops to get to the smutty stuff as most games are built up. Anyone has some solar panels to polish?
Edit: Nottravis this might actually be one of the problems with popularity of the game, in a way if you start it with the wrong attitude the game might feel wrong instead of exciting. Maybe not using the right words here, but for me not reaching any of the goals at end of first chapter made me replay to see more, someone else might give up at that moment though.
Maybe? I don't know if it works correctly. Let's see what I'm Not Thea Lundgren! will have to say about it.Shouldn't those links be at the OP for better visualization ?
Well on the bright side, you might have found a perfect way to gate the game to the kind of people who will love your game.
Yeah I have no easy solution either. Only thing I could think about is a bit of extra warning in the opening tutorial, but how many of us would believe you. Edit: I guess the one who said to maybe sex up the tutorial and in-between chapters parts was saying the same thing but in a different way to keep those players on board a bit longer so they could make the adjustment.

Well, funnily enough I didn't play this like "a porn" game. Which I assume is blackmailing Sarah, submitting to Chris and jumping on Trisha at the first opportunity.
Not if they are janky versions that don't work, that would just dissuade people from trying the game again in the future.Shouldn't those links be at the OP for better visualization ?
So many games do that..hehe
From what i see games from developers who already finished one or more previous games or that start already having sex scenes on V0.1 releases tend to attract more of a crowd.
I wouldn't be surprised. I'm guilty or looking for porn first when it comes to games here. And even if i didn't, I can't blame people for what they want to consume for entertainment. All I can say is if Heavy Five keep with the quality it has now, people who want an adult game with a good story and characters will eventually come.
That is it for now, but if you also went into the cave with her, you might get an idea of how one of her paths will develop in chapters 4 and later. You also had a perfect win and loss in the game? (rollback is your friend). Yeah I also made most first choices as I would normally do, but in this game you also need to relate to the women based upon how they react to you as you would do with a real woman. This makes a big difference.
What attracts the crowd is that they already have a crowd and a completed game in their record.
Sounds like being manipulative to me. Which I suppose does get you what you want but I don't like it. I did win at strip gladiator, I'm not that much of a loser. And I did check both options on the mission.That is it for now, but if you also went into the cave with her, you might get an idea of how one of her paths will develop in chapters 4 and later.

Yep, yep. It's all about the right audience finding its way to it.
But Mike won't die in four, it's too soon to make impact and niether be satisfactory
We need a
She's Thea, isn't she ?On the whole incest thing....putting aside ACIO (see I hadn't forgot!) let's just say it's different. I'm not sure I'll put it as a tag however. It's tricky for me to explain - so I won't!
A master key and a mindmeltA nice option to have would be locked doors! (looking at you, Chris
Also, a master key and sleeping pills/hypnosis book for the MC...
I'll try to be as polite as possible but people not liking Amanda, often wake up next to an Elton John impersonator...Hey Tom
Thanks for giving my silly little game a try and I'm so very pleased you're finding something to enjoy about it.
It is, as you've guessed, a heavy story based first and foremost and is quite a slow burn for the first couple of chapters. Largely as I needed to set up quite a few things for the player and get them into the rhythm of the game, understand some of the plot and get a feel for the characters.
Three it starts to warm up and Four goes rather bonkers on the old sex front btw...
But as the guys say, there are a lot of paths and your relationships with the characters will very much depend on your choices. Chris is a good example whereby she can be an antagonist, a friend, a domme or indeed a pure romance option all depending on how you play your MC. I never saw why characters in games had to one dimensional. Why they couldn't react like...well, like we do y'know? We like people we like and we don't like people we don't. So why shouldn't they?
But for each character there is more than one path and relationship and not all of those have to be sexual. After all Amanda might not be everyone's cup of tea sexually but you still might like her. Again, I never saw why your relationship with a character in the game had to be purely defined by sex.
As to Sarah...well, she's one of the more interesting ones pathwise. She certainly has an odd outlook on life for sure...
Manipulative is the negative word, the positive one would be responsive in this case. There is a difference between saying I will just act like I want to and then expecting everyone to like that and you and being honest but also charming and not trying to ruffle any feathers unnecessarily and make a good impression.
It is rather easy to think that, isn't it?
Being honest yeah. I might have misundertood but I meant I don't tell people what they wanna hear to get favors. Does that make things more difficult, sure. But I also would feel guilty doing it. Even in a game, if I'm given a choice.Manipulative is the negative word, the positive one would be responsive in this case.

Well perfect wins and losses do give some extra eye candy, also if you went to the cave with Sarah and kept it a secret you might have a little talk with her after the VR that is illuminating and since it is part of her character, that will also be a part of her on her bad route and romance route.
So I advise Notty's bitches to *not* spam the thread (as it could be counterproductive) but instead to make their voices heard as well on the matterHi guys! Looking at the prerequisites to get a game featured on that list, I heartily recommend Heavy Five!
Not only is the dev, Nottravis, totally active in the forum, but the game's thread has already gone way past its 750th page with nary a troll, a complaint or a "when nxt update? dev is hack!" kind of message. The H5 community is active, benevolent and friendly, if a little bit chatty.
The only issue I can see is that we all feel this gem of a game deserves to be more popular
Just picture it, interesting characters, freakingly good writing, funny bits and serious ones, intelligent situations, Heavy Five's got all of that, and more. It only lacks a bit in sex scenes for now, the first three chapters being mainly focused on introducing the setup and characters, but now that the introductory period is over, next chapter is already sure to bring happiness (in the form of sex) for everyone! Lots of different kinks are also to be expected, as well as more than 100 different paths by the end of the game!
Yeah, don't feel bad, I used to be quite successful back in the day IRL, but I missed a few keys points that were critical the first time around for everyone. But like a Choose Your Own Adventure, it's designed to learn and try again. No matter how many times you play, there will almost always be something new to see.
Well, there are times when that can make sense, I mean, if you want to get with the Spice Girls, you have to get with their friends, but in most situations ...not so much. Ideally, everyone is an option, and everyone is optional.
I have my guy starting with a couple of established love interests, that he has been with for decades or more, while everyone else you have to work a bit for.
It's the 1990's though, so finding enough solar panels will be a bitch!There are times when all I want is a 'Quick Easy Fun Time' (I think that's a Japanese VN title), especially when it's really late and my mind is starting to shut down, even been one or two days when I was so tired that even typing in a name was too much trouble!
She has been one of my main suspects for some time now. That incident about the pet was a dead give-a-way!
