I see people mentioning the "explore" button, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Do I need to unlock it somehow?

Okay, I logged onto Numbuh 2's computer, and then I could actually read the instructions on Numbuh 1's table, which unlocked exploring. Huh.

So we're just going to ignore how kukis and abbys tits keep changing size between shots? Or how this is supposed to be the KIDS next door not the teens with huge tits next door?.....I mean I suppose its good art, frankly better art than ive seen in a long time but still. A bit trippy not seeing hoagie as a rotund ball of a boy or wally as a true short king though.
This is one of the most confusing games on this site... there's no rhyme or reason to any of the progression. You just click all the interactables and things happen at random. Some may not work at all, some may decrease a stat, some may increase it, some may crash the game, some may unlock a new game mechanic that may or may not work at all. It may as well not even be a game. I have no idea what I'm doing at all times. It could play itself and it would have the exact same effect.
This does not mean it's bad, the art is great and there's tons of dialogue, but I feel like most of the content I will never get to see because I don't even know how to trigger it.
Some concrete examples: how do you even make money? I tried exploring, until suddenly I can't anymore, no idea how to enable it again. The molesting mechanic was unlocked at random but it seems to do nothing. The vial creation was also unlocked at random and seems undecipherable. Who knows what any of the items are for? Stats keep going up and down but seem to have no effect on anything. I seemingly recruited some characters but they don't want to go on quests, who knows why or how to make them do so. There's a wardrobe for the main character but seemingly no other clothes than the ones you start with. Half the stuff you can click on does not do anything, except that some actually do something at some point but you will never know because you stopped clicking on them assuming they're useless. I could keep going on and on...
Honestly Tropic you should have stuck to Supermom, you had something good going on there...

I've said it before and it still stands: devs shouldn't bother releasing a build to the public unless they have at least 1 sex scene. I tried it before and the visual style is impeccable, but I won't spend anymore time with it until there's actually some payoff for slogging through the confusing ui, map, and unclear progression.

>how do you even make money?
Mission Room, coin collecting
There's also an "Ask" option you can use to get help with the game, the characters tell you lots of stuff in the dialogue.
> The vial creation was also unlocked at random and seems undecipherable.
You open the fridge and the character tells you that he found the remains of the icecream which he brings to Numbuh 2 who makes a serum machine. "seems undecipherable" did you have trouble with the tutorial?

There's no direction, an error every 10 minutes, the shop has no point until after a "Hey the games over have fun now" message(That is also the aforementioned stroke my ego questionnaire that you the dev don't actually interact with) and even then you randomly get outfits, the potions only work on the standard outfit and no personality numbers affect how they react to the potion they're just mad for 5 days unless the potions is good which you have no way to know, the potion minigame has 11 interactable parts but all you have to do is drag one of the finite freezer items to the blender and put it in a beaker, all events are at best random and all but one of the quests you can actually track on a board thats only available in ONE ROOM are WIP nothings. And this is just what I can remember. The last part is technically not "poorly programmed" but poorly implemented, but if I, the player, can't do anything but get the quest, why am I seeing it?
The gameplay loop is "Intro you have to fail, introduction to the treehouse, skip time(either by just skipping time or interacting with someone but even that doesn't always advance time for no known reason), skip time, skip time, skip time, skip time, skip time, maybe get an event, skip time, skip time, skip time, skip time, somehow a quest unlocked but its WIP so can't do that, skip time, skip time, skip time, Hey games done having fun? No?! game closes and dokidoki type stuff ensues until you say yes the games good and click on patreon, endgame is giv yourself money and stats to actually see the character sprites, close game because it errored out." Wow. Fun.
I think members that are less than a year old or not had posted more than 100 times shouldn't be able to rate posts/games.
that's wrong, it goes against multiple rights. what it should be is account's that are known to be toxic shouldn't be aloud to rate or post
