Also, if anyone wants to offer up ideas for Sonya outfits, I will take them into account. I have some ideas, but I want her to be more fan and player driven than developer.

Pretty sure that no one cares about her. If drawing costumes for Sonya takes a long time my advice is just don't bother. Also, before starting work on the next chapter of the game ask yourself: "Do I really want to spend the next 6 months reworking and shortening the same content over and over again?". I am not a game designer, but it's clear that you guys are doing a lot of things incorrectly and you can very easily mitigate the problems by keeping the gameplay simple and straightforward. Looking forward to whenever the next big content update is!

I do, tbh. I hope she gets maybe a scene, or naked someday.

This guy gets it.

Is the art good? Absolutely.

But the timeline here is absolutely stupid. This game sat, for all intents and purposes, dormant for many years. Terrible translations, no lewd scenes, poor plot, etc.. I commend Joe for trying to turn around the ship, but the pace is still nowhere close to where it should be given their massive funding pool on Patreon.

For $8k a month any competent producer could farm out 10-12 high quality (current quality level) finished scenes complete with backgrounds, small-medium animations, and expanded character catalogs (emotions, clothing, faces, etc..)

In reality, art shouldn't cost more than 2k-3k. Another 2k for a top-level Repny programmer, 1k for writing and they still have enough left over to satisfy a hungry cocaine habit.


There are other games out there turning out similar if not better art with less than half the funding.

This isn't a funding issue, this is a producer/owner issue.
It honestly blows my mind to see patreons that huge, and some developers who get mind-bending amounts of money, sometimes for literally doing fuckin' nothing for months on end. If only some people could put think a bit less with their dicks (and I realize this might be ironic to say here, but still).

With that said, kudos to JoeBanks for doing what he does. I really hope this shit can pick up some pace, 'cause beyond mind-warpingly dumb and unintuitive solutions in the point-and-click gameplay and generally being a shit gameplay experience, the level of polish from purely just the visual presentation side is great, and the art is fantastic. There's been (and are) more overpaid developers who don't do nearly as much nearly as well visually, but reading back on the timeline of this game's development makes me upset, and I wasn't even there back then.

Honestly man, if you just start at Chapter 5 you can skip that whole thing. It's confusing at first but the quest is kinda simple once you realize how it works. Just need a sample of each girl's corresponding suit for the hat. Then once he's identified their measurements and such you just gotta make copies of Hermione's suit and then leave em in their dorms on sunday(you can visit 3 dorms in a day) then when monday rolls around, Marcus should say something indicating that you did the task correctly.

Man you should have seen the last guy...I'd literally see him getting in fights with his patrons, it'd be MONTHS before any content whatsoever was added and it was minimal new content with a ton more text. Since Joe took over as a Game Designer, this game has made strides. The first 2 months alone seemed like it was mostly fixing the mess of coding and other shit hindering the game. Since then, we've been getting pretty steady content(minigames and nudity and such) Ginny being the first substantial one. And from what I understand, you pretty much have Joe to thank for that one almost directly. The art in this game has too much potential to just let it die.

Is there a way to Take off ginnys bra?
Repeated attempts will let you take off more clothes. There may be a bug in 0.4a that may prevent taking it all off cuz I saw a 0.4.1 update on patreon.
how do you unlock the additional outfits for sonya, such as the asian one
Doing achievements gives you these little wisp looking things that you spend on outfits, buying more outfits gets you gems which you can use to level her up and unlock more outfits to buy.

One in Luna's dorm, not necessary, and the one on the right, on the corridor right out of the office

Just need the things in red.
Also with the Ginny quest, she comes on Wednesdays and says "Perhaps you can take a walk around the castle and get some ideas!"
I have talked to every portrait and interacted with a lot of things but dead end.
Thanks in advance.

The only two portraits that matter for her quest are the seeker in the hallways and Flitwick at ravenclaw on saturday. Be sure to talk to macgonnagal several times too. I forget the exact steps but I know you gotta talk to her several times during. Eventually you need to drag and drop the glove onto the portrait of the seeker and she'll tell you it's a charmed glove and using it would be cheating. After that you need to send it as a gift to ginny in an informal letter. The rest should be downhill from there.
