same issue :(
havn't studied what is wrong with your game, but on the off chance you tried aplying CCMod to the newest update of the game, I give you this.



version 1.0.1fj full cc mod version 9b.j preinstalled

Taken from page 1076, it has the mod preinstalled (the version I complete incidentally) and should have all the content.
From skimming though the update log it seems to mostly small fixes and little content that gets updated

Okay so I went back about twenty pages and quickly scanned over them. Really? Can't believe that no one shared the following progress report before (and I checked). ^^' Some pretty big news here!

Like, y'know... the stuff about the Gym side job! I mean, a lot of people thought all the side jobs were all wrapped up and done, and what you have in the game is all you're going to get. But hey, they're adding a gym side job that everyone was wondering about before; awesome! Plus, they're looking to port over another game for us to enjoy! Woo~!

I'm not posting the January 17th Progress Report or the Patch Notes for v1.0.4 since the news in them aren't as exciting as the one below. They mostly talk about localization and optimizing things for the Steam Deck. Anyway without further ado, here's the Progress Report that talks about the three things the team will be focusing on at the moment and in the immediate future. Cheers!

January 10th 2022: Progress Report and early 2022 Roadmap

Hello everyone, exhausted Rem here with this year's first Progress Report!
Why am I already exhausted in just the first Progress Report of the year, well... it's because I've been spending the last hour frantically debugging and fixing an issue with the v.1.0.3 release.

Phew......

Anyway, happy new years! Or has it really been already ten days into the new year... So first thing first, Karryn's Prison has been a great commercial success! Totaling all the combined sales from DLsite and Steam, Karryn's Prison has managed to sell over 50,000 copies within almost a month!!!!

This is all thanks to everyone's support and help!! Karryn's Prison managed to stay on the number one spot on DLsite for the first seven days, and managed to stay in Steam's New & Trending list for over twenty days, including during the Steam Winter Sale!! Speaking in terms of my personal expectations, KP sold much more than I was expecting in the first month on DLsite! On Steam, KP already outsold Meltys Quest's first year, but if I am to be honest about my personal expectations for Steam, I was ~kinda~ hoping that more people and outlets who never heard about KP or never played eroge before would give KP a try especially since it was trending on Steam for a few weeks. Because well, I think KP does something that is quite different from all other eroges that has come before it.

Oh well, I don't think it was bad to dream big. Speaking of which, while English outlets did not cover KP, a famous Japanese magazine that specifically covers eroges by the name of BugBug will have a 4 page feature about KP in their upcoming February 2022 edition!!!!

This is a pretty amazing accomplishment because I grew up as a child reading gaming magazines like Nintendo Power and PC Gamer, and I would re-read the articles over and over again (mostly while pooping on the toilet) and I would be starry eyed looking at all the cool new games and stuff. So to come from that point to now where, while KP isn't featured in PC Gamer and stuff, is instead featured in BugBug where other esteemed eroge companies like Alicesoft, Eushully, Key, propeller, Waffle, Guilty, dualtail, Astronauts, etcetc that I've played and respect are also featured, is a great honor! A photo of the magazine article is at the end of the post!

Now then, I want to talk a bit about the "roadmap" and what we've been doing since KP was released! Besides bug fixing and reading feedback, we've also been working on two major things.

1. First thing is what I've already talked about before release, which is working on providing localization support.
Currently, we're working on converting the rest of the ingame text to the new text system that I developed, and we've also been working with a Chinese and Russian localization team to bring Karryn's Prison into Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Russian!!!!

Now, I just want to stress that it takes time to create a high quality localization, and that anyone who can not comfortably read English or Japanese should not purchase Karryn's Prison while it is not available in the language of their choice. KP is currently being localized into Chinese and Russian, but there is no time table for when it will be finished.

2. Second thing that we've been working on... is actually not related to Karryn's Prison!
So during 2021, Remtairy did not publish any eroges from outside developers. This is mainly because well, I was way too busy and wanted to focus on Karryn's Prison above all else, as well as the fact that even if I didn't personally publish them, there are now plenty of other companies who can. And after Karryn's Prison was finished, I took a look at some of the eroges I've played and enjoyed in 2021, and realized that there was one specific eroge that still has not been translated into English, and I thought it is a real damn shame that it hasn't yet been localized into English. And I thought about it and thought about it, and decided.

You know what, if no one else is going to do it, then I'll do it myself.

And so we've contacted the developer, and they have agreed to let us publish their game onto Steam!!! I can't reveal what game or developer it is yet, but it's personal recommendation from yours truly, and it's a much, much simpler game compared to Karryn's Prison, ha. In fact, it's a very standard and simple RPGMaker eroge, but it's done right and done well, and I think it would be a shame if more people don't get to play it.

Now then, back to Karryn's Prison! So far, I've mentioned what we have already been working on, and will continue to work on for the first half of 2022. There's one more thing I would like to introduce to everyone that we'll be working on this year:

3. Karryn's Prison will be getting additional content!!!
Sachinama and I have discussed and debated. We want to provide a bit more content for Karryn's Prison to show our thanks to everyone. But even just as important, maybe even more so, as creative people, we have to constantly be working on something that excites us and gets the juices and blood flowing in our brain (and groin). So we debated and discussed.
After we finish converting the ingame text to the new text system so that the localization teams can fully the translate the game,
we will be working on a Gym side job.
Sachinama gave an idea about how the Gym side job would look. Then I gave mine. And Sachinama laughed and said that my idea is way too complicated and would probably take months to draw. And then Sachinama said that his idea was kind of generic and would be too boring and by-the-numbers, and then he laughed again and said let's go with my idea because it's the more interesting version.

So there you have everyone. After we finish the Gym side job, we'll re-evaluate again, and if we come up with an interesting idea together that we want to do for Karryn's Prison, we'll do it.

With these three projects, I think it will easily take up the first half of 2022. And since this week's Progress Report is already long enough, I'm going to end it here. Thank you everyone once again for supporting us, I hope everyone is safe and warm and stay safe and warm!

Great news, i think 50k sales for ero game first month is major success. Congrats again to the team.
However as for going viral, that is what i believe Rem is referring to, i think the game is too niche for that.

I will bring out some major points :
it's grindy - i think a lot of people will see the grind and just turn back

it's difficult - most players consider themselves better then playing on lowest difficulty and based on research people will rather quit the game then lower the difficulty.

it is punishing - you can easily get yourself into no escape situation. Again it gets people rage quit easily.

GoR-ish - you need to lose to see the hentai action - do not pity one's gamer self against his desire to see lewds. I think GoR ain't popular in west.

Heres a question, why hasn't Karryn's Prison been updated on the main page? It still comes u as v1.0.3c even though posts for 3d 3e and v1.0.4 have come out. I honestly don't think it showed up on the main page since like 0.9* or so. Is it just being updated to often as of late, or because its now fully released, or waiting for something inparticular?

have patience, it was only updated a day or so ago. it's not like most people here have paid for the game, it is being pirated. the moderators will get to it. if you need to have the most current version, use the version on steam, but you will have to pay for it. i think there was a link to the latest version on the previous page.

It also weakens your character as the inmates (such as the Nerds) can use the information against you.

Lol, bought it day 1 min 1.

Yeah, when you get to the second floor you'll encounter Nerds. They have an ability that gets stronger weakening Karryn with more published informaton edicts. If your low on money, which most are in this game, one title that ive found to be useful is "Excellent Leader" which gives a 5% increase to income and halfs the negative control but prevents gaining order. It requires to maintain 100 order for 10 full days straight. If you grind a little early and get it, and get edicts the increase your control you'll be able to slowly save and not have to fight as often. Downside is the more days that pass without fighting the stronger the enemies become so if you use it dont abuse it. Theirs a title better with 10% than that one but takes much longer to get, not sure on the number of 100 order to get.

So it said that to get the first exhibitionist passive you have to walk around naked but when does it trigger?
And is there a way to just cheat it into existence?

Refer to this comment.

BoohooBitch There's a thing called "Edit" which you can make use of instead of spamming 5 comments within a short interval of time.

And another one explains nothing.

Yeah, speedruns involve "grinding days" because that's how you get subsidies. That can include mini-games after the 1st floor subjugation. You will let order drop then spend yon days rising order by fighting mobs (roughly three fights, less if you buff the guards). You play this until you hit the threshold for order dropping (or longer as you only lose one extra order for each extra day). You spend your funds powering up Karryn in your preferred build because most of the prison stuff is waste. Other than increasing order with certain edicts (so riots aren't a big deal), you don't have to bother with anything else.

And if you do try to run the prison like a sim, you realize the money generation on income is so FUBAR that making a decent profit is nigh impossible. The money you spent to fix the prison is more than you'll get back making it an exercise in futility and outright inferior to just living off the subsidies and beating up inmates. And to top this low income generation, you can't enact edicts without edict points meaning that even if you do have the funds, you're gonna be waiting (though to be fair, the office edict of turning those unused points into money took this into account). But you can't wait as you have X amount of days to get shit done (except in Secretary).

And then there's the mini-games:
Bartending which take long and will net you 300g in a normal run. I've been told there's a bar title to increase tips after ten rounds without getting drunk but its negligible given the time you already put in.
Secretary job is a money pit (you waste 200g in expenses for it just existing) and doesn't generate income unless you up the riot risk. Something something tip jar, never got it.
Toilet job doesn't pay anything but increases staff efficiency which is negligible. If you want to reduce fatigue and clear your pleasure meter via orgasm, that's possible but not necessary.
Stripper job is useful for riot prevention but I don't bother as I can just go subjugate the 4th and 5th floors (cause I'm already strong enough to do so. I've seen it generate high amounts but without putting in the hours, 300g is the norm.

Yes, a speedrun involves grinding days. Now this is where you say nothing. And I go back to sleeping cause the income generation is still shit.
I'd be willing to help you, but all your posts are constant bitching about the game being too hard.

Still, here's some points for you to consider:
1. It's nigh impossible to beat prisoner on a fresh save (1st playthrough).
2. Bar job is easy 1k+ even in early game, provided you know what you're doing and don't mind getting passives.
3. Reception is mostly for the +order, not for money.
4. Staff efficiency is definitely NOT negligible, if you've bought the right edicts.
5. There are multiple ways of playing the game.
6. You suck. Try harder.

Hello, I`ve been playing the game since v0.8 and I forgot about the game for 6 months. I saw it on steam and I wanted to play it with CCMod, but right now it seems like the mod has been outdated? I just don`t understand, sorry for this question if it was answered previously.

6. You suck. Try harder.
2. Bar job is an early game job, it unlocks after beating first boss of the game. How do you expect people to know "what they're doing" at this early in the game? You can't justify bad gameplay mechanics here because players are simply not experienced yet to know what they are doing. Saying "if you have played this game for hundreds of hours like me you would know how to play" is a very bad excuse for a bad gameplay mechanic.

5. There are multiple ways of torturing yourself:
Go for a slut run -> Karryn ends up having orgasms just by being stared.
Go for a pure run -> Karryn ends up gaining unwanted passive(s) anyway.
Go for a normal run -> Lose the game anyway because losing the game and playing again with unlocked passives are the intended way to play the game, literally adding another layer of grinding for no reason.

6. No, player doesn't suck. It's the gameplay mechanics that sucks. This porn game is unnecesserily grindy and unfair to the player and it doesn't even explain shit. There is a reason why people still ask how to get light kick or how to unlock sex skills or how to unlock certain passives. It's not because they are dumb, it is because game doesn't give any explanation about anything at all. Sure starting area has npc's that try to explain stuff but they are simply not enough. And there are still some unexplained factors to things that are explained there. For example one of the npc's explain that endurance is supposed to decrease sex damage but why does Karryn still take 50% pleasure damage when making endurance build? Is it because of negative sex resist gained from passives? But if that's true than how am I supposed to make a slut build and win the game? Decreased sex damage doesn't matter when Karryn is constantly orgasming at the sight of a penis. Oh that and also you are literally punished for making a slut run because of the amount of negative passives you get. The game is like "Oh you want to enjoy scenes and progress through the game? Too bad, take this passive which makes Karryn come even faster".

And there are subsidies, which is supposed to be a risk&reward mechanic, turns out it is an instant game over, you literally lose everything if a riot happened when you were trying to earn money from subsidies. The game is like "Oh you are trying to make money in your 6 hours playthrough? Too bad, let me create a riot at the worst moment possible so you lose 6 hours of your life"
Even dark souls games which are famous for their difficulty allow you to learn and recover from your mistakes but this game? This game doesn't respect you or your time. Literally 1 mistake can ruin your entire playthrough. And sometimes it isn't even your mistake but a retarded level design, for example you can get stuck in a "losing streak" because there is an enemy blocking your way to the guard room and he never moves away. Your only way is to fight but you are too tired so you just start a losing streak until you lose your playthrough. The more time you sink into it more you realize this game is simply unfair, unbalanced and grindy. But sure you can have fun after playing for 100+ hours because now you know how to do everything. But if a game becomes fun after 100 hours is it actually fun? Especially when that game is a porn game?

A question to the veteran wardens of the prison!
I have the game version (v.8.o) up and running with the mods / edits a while ago (minor glitches like no face features during some animations/attacks but i can tolerate).
I played but not much (1st boss beaten)
However,
i see the game now is at (v1.0.3c Full), should i install the current version or hasnt there been a significant change to warrent the admittedly tedious setup process!

It is at v1.0.4 FULL right now as of writing this comment with the unofficial CCMod also made half-compatible with it(Some files are still at v1.0.2a for the mod atm).

There's no reason not to update and I don't see anything tedious having to simply drop the mod files into the game's mod loader. (I keep a separate installation for CCMod since it changes the main game files)
