It should be open. Just go to the official Itch page and it's pinned there if I'm not mistaken. It's pretty active and the dev answers questions and replies to bug reports when he can

About those NSFW images, are they in-game atm ? Or are actually in the files but not implemented yet ? Probably we need to ave the idols above 18 for them to happen ? Either way, the mod possibilites are really good (even with stole art tough) just hope that the community embrace the game

I played this game for over 4hrs yesterday, very addictive and very entertaining. However, I was wondering where's the NTR part because I didn't encounter any of those kind of events during those passed 4hrs+.

I sure as hell never played a tycoon game . It should have proper optional tutorial hints for almost all things there is no reason not to.
Heyo, for anyone wondering, I own the game on Itchio, and the devs have said that there will be a proper full tutorial in the next update, they intended it to be there this update, but I assume people were getting impatient with the lack of release, so they had to push it out without the full tutorial.
Reason there hasn't been a tutorial beforehand is mainly because majority of the updates before the story have been focused on features, generally each new feature is explained briefly in the release notes and forumn posts on itch, but it's still a game in progress that's probably only really fun for a certain type of person (I am one of those people honestly, because I love it haha).
Just a sorta extra explanation for those people wondering why there's no tutorial.

It was fixed with Hotfix 1, but the v20 here doesn't have any of the hotfixes.
As a general rule, I don't review things here; my interests and tastes are sufficiently outside of the board's mainstream that I believe most would find my ratings misleading.
Really? I've had pretty good results with a consistent Lonely/R&B/Cool record. I'm not exactly breaking the bank, but neither do I feel like I'm rushing towards inescapable bankruptcy.
The game is still in beta. If they're still changing systems and behaviors, they'd probably rather wait until these things are finalized before including tooltips for them; otherwise, they have to duplicate a lot of effort each update, or risk leaving in inaccurate information.
That said, they do have text from the yet-to-be-implemented tutorial at their Itch page for the basics; I just wish it went further, since it was all stuff that was easy to figure out on your own.
It's based on your gender and the rival's gender. If you want to see the event through the debug menu, activate cheat mode by hitting F7 5 times. Hit F7 again and it should open up a menu with all the event listed on the right. Look for the event starting at "Story_Chapter_5_42_Sexy" Or "Story_Chapter_5_43_Real_Sex".

That's a ridiculous excuse. This would be the first beta or early access that would do that so ....
What I've done (please note that I am not wildly successful, merely doing slightly better than break even each month)...
1. Have a dedicated Production team. There's a significant difference in quality between coaches and production specialists, and retaining a novice specialist is a minor expense.
2. Make sure your songs have a "hook" - they should strongly appeal to a certain demographic. Men, women, teenagers, adults, hardcore, casuals... It needs to appeal to someone if you're going to draw a crowd. Having choreography that undercuts your genre, for instance, is no good - and a song that all genres kind of like isn't as good as one that becomes a craze with one or two groups in particular. (There is a soft cap on how much a given demo will buy, but you don't have to worry about that when you're struggling to get sales at all)
3. Make sure that your idols actually match the appeal of your song. If your song is super-appealing to women, for instance, make sure your idols are cool and good singers, so that they become fans of your idols.
4. Having a fanbase matters. People don't buy from people they've never heard about, it seems. Spending time on Promotion will ensure that you have people who will give your singles a second look. After you get established, though, it's up to you whether you want to continue with promotions or rely on your concerts to spread your fame.
5. If all of that seems like a lot of work, consider just chasing the trends for a while. You'll get a lot of casual fans that way, though it makes specialization difficult.
6. Don't release songs too often. As the game warns, it totally crashes your sales. If you don't see a warning tooltip, though, you're probably fine.
7. Consider digital releases until you get a feel for what kind of sales you can expect - or for whenever you think those sales might change. You give up a fair amount of money by doing so, but it's much safer than getting half the sales you could, or having a bunch of leftover CDs.
I hope that helps!
Honestly, it's because I've seen others use that rationale before that I assume this was the reason. I haven't seen any statements from them personally, just another person mention they were going to implement that in the future.
I mean, it's a beta; it is inherently unfinished, and the only people that are expected to be playing are those that are fairly involved in the development of the game, who will presumably be reading the developers commentary with each release.

We can filter out tags? Thought it was only search for tags not able to exclude them.

And anyone who plays the beta would report that it needs tutorial hints if they weren't there so no once again that doesn't mean anything.

You said there was no reason for a lack of tooltips, and I gave a reason that many betas aren't terribly user-friendly until they approach release. If you don't find that a sufficient reason, that's perfectly reasonable; you're free to feel frustrated if you found a game difficult to navigate. I'm just saying that there is a reason for it, and it will presumably be addressed in the future (such as how there's a tutorial coming next release).
I haven't done it myself, but I've seen others mention that you can do some things with her.CAn I date the rival girl? I have more hot for her for some reason
I don't believe there are any male idols, no.
Dude do you even read what people write in here? I'm a backer of this game. Me and every single other backer in here said, they are working on it! They wanted to release a tutorial with this update, but ran into problems, so they're releasing it in one of the next updates. Also, this game is not early access. It's in closed beta. They are listening to what the beta players say and communicate in the itchio forum and through dev commentary and changelogs. As I already said: This game has a slightly different approach to development, than most games on f95. They want a full and fleshed out gameplay loop before adding additional quality of life features. I actually think this is a great approach, because they don't lose themselves in designing unnecessary things for the game, before it even runs properly...

Tendhix have any of the backers mentioned how brutal the beginning can actually be for the game and requires save scumming to even survive the first few weeks? Hope that the devs balance things out as imo it's quite unforgiving and I find it to be quite unbalanced especially in story mode.
