how do you kiss Jane ?

 

[lumpystien]

after the initial threesome, you can meet her when you go for walks outside, do that a few times and she will flash you

i cant believe i didnt think of that, thanks

 

[noobling]

How do I meet Tessa initially? I go for walks round the clock and nothing happens. Somewhere says I must do a threesome with her first. Who is that other person for the threesome?

susan

I smoked some weed and cocaine this morning, it was revealed to me by the browser debugger that the cittcode was:
"hwn2ch7" (enter this first)
"not 712ns tried and neither" (then later)

usable only in your room

Man, Hannah seems rough. Is there something I am missing or is she more of an 'end-game' kind of challenge? It seems like you either need a lot of days to build up her love, or a lot of stats to boost her attraction.

Simply choose the "I don't want to pay for sex, you're a nice girl and you deserve better than that" option when you get it after studying with her a few times.

Are you trying to have sex with her? Because I think you need to have anal with her a few times before the sex option will work. But that is also because the love requirement is quite high. Luckily the anal sex option gives decent love points.

anyone have a save before this upadte to share?

So... I just want to take a moment and say: This is unironically one of the best porn games I've ever played - and I play a lot of these kinds of games. I'm talking multiple hundreds here.

Not because of the content, but because of the design.
You've managed to create a roguelite porn game in which you not only have the (sort of) wholesome story of a nerd becoming more confident, healthier, and more successful in his love life without making the game tedious, but you also remove 99% of the busywork that other amateur game makers habitually include and it's got substantial replay value. It's short enough that it never wears out its welcome, the writing is just good enough that you can get attached to the characters, and there's smut everywhere so you can't really complain, and interactions change based on your progress.

Shit, man, how'd you manage to avoid basically every pitfall that every amateur porn game - and most professional porn game (or hell even just regular game developers) tend to tumble into? Either you are astonishingly lucky or exceptionally clever. There are unironically people who professionally make games for a living that don't design stuff this competently.

Either way I wanted to express my appreciation - not for the game (I skew more towards female protagonists engaging in debauchery - though a perverted femme nerdette going through a similar arc could be pretty adorable as a sequel) - but purely for the design and mechanics of the game itself. I had to make sure you know there's at least one person out there who sees your talent and appreciates your competence for all the elements players rarely consciously think about.

Hope y'all have a happy holiday season, too.

I wouldn't say it is gone as much as it is optional. Grinding the EXP for absolute top purchases is a slog, even optimizing it to fuck 10-12 asses a day on a shunned run.

It's just that you don't need those top purchases to see everything, they're more bragging rights.

 

[Silvertongued]

I think you maybe misunderstand - when I say busywork I'm not saying "there is no grind," I'm pointing out that there are very few, if any, wasted clicks.

That's what I mean when I said most people wouldn't even think about it: tons of games have extra clicks to take you from area to area, or things that you have to do every day for no meaningful gain, just to tread water. A lot of decisions where you aren't making decisions, but following a routine. Or days in-game where nothing of significance happens and you literally have to waste time before you can get to something new and interesting. Most games - especially porn games - have a ton of this.

Nearly every, if not every click you make in this game is a decision you've made. Even when you're doing the same thing you did last run you're still deciding to do it. You're never obligated to do it; it's never a requirement or something that is a no-brainer to do and should just be automated. Even not making certain choices is an important decision when going achievement-hunting. Everything you do has an opportunity cost but it's not one where you just go do X tomorrow instead; you have limited time, yet it's also not applying much actual pressure to you because you are being rewarded for practically everything you do. The only thing lost is your ability to experience the thing you missed, which is an excellent reason to play the next week because it also gives you rewards for doing it. Basically the point is no matter what you're doing you're thinking about the game rather than going through motions. Even the routine stuff is wholly optional, after all, and gives its own rewards.

Honestly, while you said it was a grind I found it pretty fun for the most part - and easy. It's not about just banging girls, after all, it's about successfully pursuing specific routes and setting your character up to get as many of them as you can in a single run. You are literally planning out your run in this silly porn game. When's the last time you planned anything in a porn game? Where you had to think ahead more than just a couple of steps to achieve what you want? I do agree that a fair bit of that is part of not needing to get the big ticket purchases - but again even that is a hallmark of good game design.

The game itself may not be the most amazing porn game ever made in the history of forever or anything, but from the perspective of a game designer this game gets top marks. I admit I'm kind of gushing over here just because I'm a bit of a nerd but it really is quite impressive from an amateur game maker doing (I presume?) one of their first games. I could teach a class on game design using this game, lol.

Thanks a lot for your kind words!
This Is my first and only game, I couldn't really do anything 2 years ago when I started, so I just kept improvising.
I'm very aware that my writing, narration and character depth is questionable at best, I'm doing my best to improve It over time!
English Is my 2nd language and I still rely a lot on people helping me with grammar fixes on discord.
The same has happened for coding and feedback on UI, so I can say that the community helped a lot on several things, including game design.
Even though the design Is what I have more fun thinking about, I ended up being held accountable for quality standards in writing and story that I never thought I should even worry about.
I still have many things to add, a bit of burnout to manage, but I intend to continue doing so! Unfortunately I cannot Imagine myself writing female-protagonist content, It would probably be even lower quality than my male dialogues, and I'll keep working on this one for the forseeable future.
I really appreciated your thoughts, especially considering the game design is the only thing that I feel like I'm at least decent at, thanks again <3

Oh, of course. I totally understand why you wouldn't want a female protagonist. If nothing else finding adequate video would be a tremendous pain in the butt, lol. It's not really a viable option anywhere outside my head.
Your dialogue and narration is fine, by the way. For the most part it's better than average. The characters are just unique enough that they're memorable but not so complex that it gets distracting - that's the sweet spot, IMO. My intent wasn't to suggest that your game is sub-par in any meaningful sense (it really isn't) but rather that it's... well, a porn text game. It's probably not going to be more highly regarded than, say, Dark Souls any time soon and that's through no fault of your own. It's just a totally different niche/market where, IMO, you've done quite well.

While, yeah, your community has clearly given you good advice, you're still the one who ended up making it - and you've done an excellent job here. Maybe I should poke around your discord sometime, ha.

Good luck with the burnout, though. I know how it feels. Something I've found useful is talking to people about my ideas, bouncing stuff off of them, getting their suggestions - tends to reinvigorate my enthusiasm a little once I get to essentially "experience" my idea through the eyes of someone else. It's not a permanent fix but it helps through some roadblocks.

As far as dialogue goes, well, if you struggle with that in particular you can always see if someone is willing to help you out. The porn community is filled with people who often write lengthy stories and dialogue for fun, after all. I should know, I am them. lol.

That's because you are inefficient. Money is how you make exp easy and quick.

 

[Siphon]

I considered that as an alternative but I never actually tested it, is that actually a decent way to get EXP? My best so far is 5500 on a 41-day Shunned run with a 148% mult. Might give that method a shot.

I'm guessing coding, since fast food work scales like garbage?

Yes, you can spam code like a madman and regain stress by playing videogames.

Yeah, I've considered limiting this many times, but it's not so unbalanced.
And it's a sanbox after all, so why bother if people have fun with alternative strategies.

Thanks again I know you didn't say the dialogues are subpar, buy I'm pretty convinced they are, especially the older ones that need rewriting badly.
Most of the burnout comes not from ideas and design, but from sourcing appropriate media and bend them into the story matching and coming up with at least decent dialogue and setting, It's hard and very time consuming, especially setting them up for threesomes, etc.
Doing that with female protagonist, and aiming for male actors consistency seems like a nightmare, all POVs are reverted so it's probably close to impossible to do a decent consistency job.
And yeah hop on discord if you have some spare time, would be glad to see you around!

Yeah that's why I said I wasn't surprised - after thinking about it for a couple of minutes it would've been a nightmare to find media on one actress with recurring events with the same actors and threesomes and all that jazz.
It's hard enough just doing it the way you have - which, honestly, genuinely impressive work by the way.

Also your dialogue is perfectly fine! IDK what older dialogue you're talking about but I haven't encountered anything particularly bad or anything.

And yeah hop on discord if you have some spare time, would be glad to see you around!

Too late. I'm already there. Muahaha. Feel free to hit me up if you like. Otherwise I shall quietly lurk and be spooky. Same name as my account here.
