Yes, the game is much improved. I was really looking forward to playing with all of these new changes, but the game is too broken right now for me to continue. Hopefully they'll fix it ... quickly.

You all miss the point that almost everything has been re-worked :) Will have to wait for v.22 - in April to play old/updated events - Start the game and read when you press the first button. C ya all in 4 months time

You, sir, miss the point of what people are complaining about. The main issue isn't that some of the old content is missing. It's that the content that is in the game is buggy. As a game dev myself I'd rather not push a game out to the public in time for Christmas without taking the time to properly test it. It's one thing for a release to have subtle bugs. Most game releases do. But it's unacceptable for OBVIOUS bugs to slip past. It's sloppy. If Fapforce5 lacks testers they need to get some. If they do have testers they should fire the ones they have and get better testers.

1. That's fair. I shouldn't have put out a release. It wasn't ready for the public. F95 admins, please remove the download links until I get a good version a few months from now.

2. I do take offense to you being so angry that you're calling on firing people 2 days before Christmas. While I've never been fired I have come across people who have and it can be life destroying. Please find it in your heart to refrain from such comments, there's other ways to express your displeasure.

3. It's a free game. With my Patreon I personally make about $300 a month. My artist and animator both make a lot more, but there isn't a budget for testers. There really isn't a budget for me. It's a labor of love. Something I do in my free time. I wanted to make a game and thought other's may enjoy playing it. Nothing more. I started the Patreon so I could afford to hire the artists to make it better. Not every game here is made by a AAA studio. Most are just people who enjoy making games in their spare time and want to share their creation with the world.

Finally. Please be kind to each other. We're all just people. I did not mean to ruin anyone's day. For those providing good criticism, thank you. I do listen and make changes / updates based on your comments.

Complaining about free meals is the most annoying thing on this website.
I understand your frustration and unfortunately, I cannot support you at the moment, but when I can I will definitely do that as your game is one of the most wholesome and you've nearly finished it - which most of the devs drop their creation after a while and ... you know this enrage people :)
I wish that you leave us (users of F95) still to be able to play it - even if this state and hopefully they'll read and acknowledge that the game is given to them for free, they could give their opinion, but at least realize it's something that they cannot do and you're doing giving them your work for free and your time to entertain them to live their fantasy through your creation.
You are one of the creators here who still reads the comments here and helps when someone is stuck or needs technical help (I've previously sent you my save file due to me thinking I got stuck, but ... I just had to click on a door to continue the story :D )
I do enjoy your game, please don't take it down.

You shouldn't need to pay testers. The vast majority of game testers will do it for free. Why? Because they love a game and want to help it be better, and because they can get their hands on the game before anyone else does (even if what they're playing is buggy).

PS - Please set up a Discord server for this game.

I prefer it in HTML because everyone can use Google Translate and put it in their original language without having to ask for a translated version, etc.

Instead of saying it's broken, tell me where it's broken, report the error, sometimes it's just you not knowing where to click

My fitness level is over 400, but Tiffany's quest hasn't started, and the gym doesn't seem to be accessible. What should I do? Is the game bugged?"

It's an update from the ground up. The gym hasn't been updated yet, that's why it's not accessible. Did you go to work? The case selections are are at Missy's after you've worked 5 days.

Yes, I did. I completed all the previous case missions, and Missy wants me to increase my fitness level.

Two posts above the post that you quoted I did give precise examples of where the game is broken. Other players have also posted bug reports with specific examples. You should read threads fully before replying in them.

You need to wear panties to work.

I've been going back and forth on whether to force the user along the path, or have the player volunteer to go along the path. When I play a game like this I always put the panties on, but in your case you haven't. So the question is how to I both have the player volunteer to wear the panties and force them if they don't. I thought of several way, but have yet to add a good way. I'm not sure how many people won't put on the panties, but as you have shown, there are some that need to be forced in some way.

I've seen the posts. and have read them many times. I've spent the past several days trying to recreate the bug without success. The saves I get sent don't save the steps the player took to create the bug. It appears that if you reload the save it works. I've been talking to some players to try and recreate the steps they took without success so far. I do want to fix it, but haven't been able to find the specific set of events that lead to that error.

I know how frustrating a bug can be. Believe me I've spent many many hours looking for bugs to fix. This one has proven more difficult than the average bug. I don't have any control / moderation powers for my own game on this site, so I can only reply in comments to tell people to wait till the next release in a few months and not to play this release.

First, please disregard my request for a Discord as you already have a nice one available to your patrons. I joined just so that I can have access to your server. It's a much better way to communicate with a dev than via F95.

I'll continue my reply over there.
