Still may be one... we're all proving that this tangled web needs some dialogue cleanup and will be one helluva challenge to unravel for our dear dev. I hope like hell she storyboarded this VN before starting it... or things could get real ugly later on.
As for dialogue clean up...sure Stan5851 will post a screenshot but Tess just mentioned that the Kane dialogue with Olivia right after seeing Elena is..in fact...a mistake.

Does anyone know the source of the song FarewellAlexander.mp3? It is one of the songs of the Alexander's temple scene (season 1), and it's amazingly beautiful. Who did it?

Whoa I finally played this one... great game... needs some narrative clean-ups here and there, but a really solid story and overall good writing. It is quite confusing at the begining too, but it's probably too late to fix that.

Funny, I avoided this game for a while because I thought it was a femdom fuckfest (based on comments), and it turns out there's not even that many sex scenes... okay, granted I only played the "dom" path, but still, for the overall lenght, yeah, not that much of a fuckfest.

I was considering doing another run in order to gain one more sponsor, but I'm not even sure if that changes anything... I got Veronica first, but I saw you could first get Dominique and then gain Veronica... not sure it's worth replaying all that tho. I suppose it'd be just more interesting to do like a sub path with the worst possible choices I guess...

Anyways, yeah... it was cool I guess.

Oh also: The game DESPERATELY needs a new logo and new chapter screens... those look really really low quality =(

You are right, but as promised, I am posting Tess's response.

So, our KaneDom is no stupid and it was just a mistake. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯(no big deal, the important thing is that we got it sorted out)...and I'll assume that maybe Tess will even release 0.8.1b with dialogue fixes (if enough of them accumulate to make a new version)..Well, at least that would make sense.

The sponsorship hasn't really been utilized outside of a sex scene in Ep. 7 with your first sponsor. Getting Dominique's sponsorship first will get you K7 by End of Day 4/Ep. 4, and that will give you a lead with each promotion point, but I believe you might be able to promote 2 ranks on Day 5 if you work it right. There is a story path that seems locked to [Good] Dominique's sponsorship, but I'm not aware of any such threads for other sponsors. Yes you can gain Veronica after Dominique, in fact she tells you to do so, else you will make her angry. It also looks like you can gain Alessandra's sponsorship, but for everyone that is only after the Gameshow (if you do what she likes in said show).

Max you can get currently is 3 sponsors (and a mentor)...but they don't do a great deal...yet. Yes, you should try a K1/2 run with a GoodSubKane/EvilDomOlivia hehe...hahaha...muhahaha haaa ha ahaaaaaaaaaaaa.....

I've literally (an hour ago) given Tess all her mask images, cut out and cleaned up (she lost a lot in a SSD crash), especially so she can clean up the Chapter 8 title card. I've offered to redo/do all her chapter cards going forward which was met with enthusiasm.

You can still get Dominique sponsor second if you don't meet her first btw (but yes that denies the early K7 fast-track from her).

I have a save where my MC is sponsored by everyone. It broke both the internet and the Gambit so I carefully placed that save in an archive surrounded by liquid nitrogen for safe keeping. The world is not ready for such things.

Another valid point which (at this point of all the accumulated evidence) makes our entire discussion regarding bracelets null and void. There's too many dialogue bugs in the VN to rely on details for theory...imo.
Here’s what she said (I asked) :),

“because they know only a Kane that gets to a certain point can do X at location Y -- a sub Kane won't likely see that scenario so they might plan a different alternative. Err that's a major reason K7 was mentioned, their intel is that it's a needed start (might not be correct but their belief) point to even consider what might be true later for him.”

Hm!? I'm guessing you got Dominica/Veronique, then secret subbed to Alessandra, and then did you feed the "gooey Sarlacc" in this recent update? Or what was your strategy?

I'm surprised Tess doesn't just make [rank] a variable in the dialogue, so Otto and Nadia can say the accurate rank. After all she's already doing it for MC/Sis/Bro/Friend's first and last names.

sorry guys work been a nightmare

Hi everyone!
I hope everyone enjoyed the latest update or will for those just getting it now! I have so many bullet points I want to cover, and I think I am going to split it into this and next week because it's so long, but I will mention as much as I can right now!
1. Overall Patreon Post - This week, I will update the pinned post for the overall page and include the latest 0.8.1 links but keep up the Episode 1-7 links because they are also necessary to enjoy the game properly!
2. My main goal this week will be to write a good walkthrough for the latest release and then make a post with the link and also update it to the overall pinned post for the page. A walkthrough is not really difficult but it is very time consuming as I usually have to read the entire script slowly line by line, and lay out as much as I can in a clear manner with split paths and even color coding it in a decent way. I am not as good at this style of writing versus freeflow/creative but I always give it my all and will try and even get a little help. Given how I do a lot of small alternate dialogue for certain prior choies, I may not literally include every iteration in that sense. However, I will try and include all relevant choices from the past and how they impacted this update, the current choices and what happens, and even choices in the update and how they may be relevant beyond this episode. So that will be a primary task for me this week and I wanted to do it at home instead of while traveling because I can use nice big screens to look at the script while having another screen to write the walkthrough, etc.
3. The poll results were not that shocking to me, other than the the pure strength of Veronica with glasses! I will be creating a dom poll this week sometime, but please feel free to leave suggestions how to include people this time. I was thinking of just doing the same exact people, but I am open to suggestions! Maybe including more people?
4. I will be shopping for a new computer this month with the primary purpose of purchasing it in April right after I know my exact tax payment, haha! My assistant Anais is also going through this same process (will mention more about her and the game she is doing next time perhaps) so we are going to kind of shop together. After I get a RTX 4090 based computer, I will likely take a week to move everything over, but I will still keep rendering some on my current computer while doing that at the same time. This should be really helpful for a bit of better speed and ease of use. I'm looking forward to it, and wanted to wait until an update was out as I was worried about doing anything funny close to a release! If anyone smart about computers knows good deals, always open to hearing that too!
5. Recruitment -- I will be posting in the next week to ten days a formal post for recruitment to help out a bit, likely on here and on Discord. It is kind of jointly with Anais but I will be specific as to what I am seeking versus what she might need, etc. More on that later, but the basic needs for me right now in order of priority are 1) a little animation help if you are experienced in this work 2) abiliity to create UI looks and link them to the basic code of the game which I think is Renpy/Python (not a tech person unfortunately). I have tried MANY times to hire basic rendering/art help and it has been very difficult to find matches. But never closed to that idea. Anais will have much more specific requirements/needs (she is more tech than I) but I tend to go with vibe/feel a lot more with ideas and how I work.
6. I have very carefully considered ALL the feedback I got regarding the very evil dom path (demon flag) of the game. As I have said before, this prior episode was the most difficult for me - not the game stuff itself - but in terms of dealing with certain issues with people. Almost all of these problems originated from a small core of people that were by and large fans of this specific path. While I have certainly had my share of "normal" problems from the sub and other dom paths which is more similar to just dealing with thirsty men comparable to real day to day life, this stuff above is on a different level. Any attorney or psychiatrist familiar with certain legal definitions of certain specific behavioral terms/standards would most likely agree with my assessment that I was sometimes dealing with emotionally damaged human beings. So while I feel bad in a way of course, I also don't deserve to bear that either. I'm just a random game dev doing something I enjoy and hoping others have fun too. I never have or will deny that everything I do in life is for family/friends/me first (I wouldn't make this game if I didn't get personal enjoyment from it as it's easier to make money in other ways) but of course I want people to enjoy it too! Remember everyone, this is just a game.
So with that in mind, I am still going write/render the game the exact same as before and do the demon flag content, but I am going not going to include that entire path in the Test Version of Part II. I am going to see what happens (I don't want to tip off what I am looking at but it's more than one thing) and if certain things do/don't happen a certain way, I will then include that path in the Beta Version/Final of Part II. If it goes a certain other way, I will abandon that path for good with a sigh of resignation but acceptance. So we'll see how it goes.
Keep in mind I am NOT talking about the normal dominant Kane say trying to build a harem/fuck around or get with a specific female and trying to gain power, etc. I am talking about the more extreme dom content. (I haven't really done this too much yet but I had more planned that was a bit stronger than ever, etc.)
7. Oh yes, Part II update. I haven't got too far into things yet as I am wrapping up Part I and have the walkthrough this week. But, I did write now four scenes, and some basic rendering has started. I haven't checked the word count, but I know I have reached about Line 500 of the code for the script, and Part I ended up about 13,000 lines. I also have about 30 renders already done, three of which are included above although I am tweaking one of those with something I don't quite like entirely.
Ok, I feel like I have written a bunch, but I actually had more bullet points but will move them for next week. Most of what is not here is a bit more detail about Part II, but let's wrap up all admin/Part I stuff first. I have formally on my own sense "started" the clock on Part I starting March 1, 2024 so I tend to think in the macro sense that I want Part II doing by X date based on this start date.
Ok, I am going to get to the walkthrough a bit today and also look for the dom poll this week! Any suggestions, concerns, or anything else always feel free to contact me here or on Discord, thank you so much!

1. Looks like something went wrong at the research station (did Cole give his rescuers the slip, knocking out the 2 greatest assassins in the world? ... of course that apparently isn't the real Otto). I'm guessing that's Stefan in the middle, he was Otto's ride out, and his hair texture matches, but not his hair color. The costume is also significantly different from Cole's when he picks up his supply crate in Ep. 6, nor is the site built for more than one person, so I doubt it's Cole having recovered them from the snow.

3. I'm putting this in logical order. New character? I don't recognize the woman on screen. Since we haven't seen Amara on Good Dominique path, is this exclusive to Evil Dominique's path? I mean I doubt Amara's just hanging out somewhere (no pun intended) on the Good Dominique path with her kids while they await Kwame's fate in the program, it's supposed to be a long process.

2. This looks to be where the "new girl" is calling from.

Have now added the Timeline & Character Sheets as individual zips for those who just want those and are not interested in the save sheet. If Save sheet changes exponentially next update will add that as a seperate zip also.

Character Sheet also updated with error fixes and more characters.

Can be found on OP or here!

Tess'll be using 'em before long bud. Look at you go. I'd take a look at the sheets but deathly afraid it'll change the bias on how I write the mod's ChoiceGuide, but can see from the screenshots you put a lot of work into it (that's me putting two "buts" in one sentence, that can't be right). Guess this is a bad time to say I'm a monster PowerQuery and PivotTable dude, so not DL & opening the actual spreadsheets leaves me bummed. I'll grab another drink and wash that bummer away.
