Ren'Py Holiday Island [v0.4.5.1] [darkhound1]
That's a difficult question for a straight answer
Well, whenever a girl teases the MC using her ass (ass tease) or boobs (boob tease). It has to be an active action on the girl's side. So the MC just staring doesn't count. I probably forgot a ton of places where it could/should have been put as well and maybe have some double inside a single scene (the idea is that it only counts once per scene/event, even if it's done multiple times).
The main reason is that I have no idea myself. It all takes a lot longer than I thought.

Its ready when its ready
I began playing with DAZ a few days ago, its really fun But the rendering time is very long.... Especially if you want quality, and you want Keep your good job
This game is great and has lots of content. But my goddd its grindy. You really need to put hours into this if you want to get anywhere. And that put me off playing it for good. Just wish there was a way to make it way less grindy. Tried some cheats and they broke the game. And running around trying to find a specific scene that happens only at a certain time in a day is also a nightmare.

Choosing body type selects only which girls to be on the Island at the start, but there is no possibility to adjust the breast size.
I can only say this again and again. Don't play it like that. Just enjoy it without hunting for one specific scene for hours. Just keep playing and most of the scenes and events will "just happen". There is absolutely no need to grind all the girl's stats to max levels. The requirements will be added to all scenes,events and appointments eventually. But you can already see that you don't need super high stats for most of them.
The next version will have a lot more quests, meaning also guidance on what to do next for Amy. After that, the gameplay for one girl after the other will be changed that way.
If you want to use cheats, use companion mod from niceerotica, which is also linked on the OP of this thread.
It should be pretty save to use without breaking the game.
Hi Darkhound. I just wanted to thank you for creating and continuing to evolve such a great game. Your dedication to it really shows through with each new version. Great job. Having gotten into 3d rendering myself very recently, I understand now how much time and effort it takes to create even just one 3d image. Keep up the great work!

As has already been stated above thats for the selection of starting girls. Has no other effect.
It can be a surprise for newcomers. But that said it should not be a huge surprise,
Ren'Py games do not have an physics engine, so there is no such thing as setting an input value and characters then change accordingly. It is pre-rendered images being loaded each time.
In a Ren'py game that already has over 6000 images and 100 unique animations providing changing busts at 4 sizes (Full, Big, huge, Melon) would be another 18000 Renders and 300 Animations. So not really possible.
Of course there is also the detail with the 1st paragrah about the game stating : "parade of enormous boobs".
So while we sympathize, we do not really accept boob size complaints.
The best suggestion we can give is to have Delizia & Lacey (counts as small around here) and Brenda & Renee (medium) on the island and then be a patron and vote for your favorite girls (patreon votes = content in this game), that or move on.
Girl Ranking,

Hi everyone. This is a great game and I've already gotten some good fapping done. I do have a quick question tough: I unexpectedly unlocked a "Reward" scene (after helping Yvette with her workout) when I already had an event planned, and messed up moving the preplanned event cancelling the "reward." Is there any way to replay the event?

Yvette also has a Hell of a lot of content, one of my favorite short stacks. She is what I call "fun-size"!
Enjoy *what* exactly? what is the gameplay of this game?

I have to agree with MattoElias, it is grindy... but its worth it, but yes, again, it is VERY GRINDY.
Some scenes take at least 50-80 mouse clicks through all the dialogue... and I am not joking.
This is the only complaint I have about the game, otherwise its well done and quite fun.

Seems you don't understand the concept of grindy, you're complaining about the length of the dialogues

Added to the FAQ. Warning SPOILERS!
2) What is the object of the game? Why is there so much grinding in the game?

Just a little heads up (from the development news):
Minor improvements and changes
Minor improvements and changes
- Loading old saves with error "could not find return label..." will no longer crash the game, but will leave the scene instead. It's not a perfect solution, but at least the save game will still be useable. Unfortunately to allow this, some Ren'Py base code had to be changed. --> will be added with 0.1.9.0
