I don't really take it personally as there seems to be a bigger anti-piracy stance on this post than anywhere else on the site, which I am incredibly thankful for.
But I do wish people would stop being so delusional in assuming things like this don't damage the profitability of games when I have, on many occasions provided specific examples of support generated by leaked vs non-leaked versions of LiL.
The biggest factor in releasing consistent content is motivation. And it's admittedly a lot harder to stay motivated when you are consistently showing people exactly how certain actions can negatively influence a product only to have nothing change as a result.
People that download leaked versions don't hurt the game and I'm glad they can't contain themselves in waiting for updates. That's great. They want it to succeed. Just don't spoil things for the people respectful enough to wait for public builds and we gucci.
People that personally leak the game are an entirely different story. They don't want the game to succeed, they just want the dopamine hit that comes from their five minutes of being the cool guy who freely gave out a thing that was still going to be free in two weeks anyway.
I make a lot of fucking money. And I am very thankful to be making a lot of fucking money.
But, I also do a lot of fucking work- and I'm trying to raise the bar for what players should expect out of developers.
I am tired of other developers in this same industry milking their players for months, sometimes years at a time, without so much as an update. That's why I have a dedicated release schedule on the 1st of every month, so people can immediately be rewarded for their patronage in seeing that I do care about and appreciate the support. It's why the current release will always be $5. It's why I added a second monthly release after the full-time stretch goal was met. This is my job.
But this is the Internet, and it's easy to fuck things up. So of course there will always be a person who is going to do just that.
Anyway, hello everyone and thank you for playing my video game. I will now go back into hiding until 0.18.0 Part 1.
Thanks for all the hard work Selebus. I was one of those that was just downloading off this site for free but after seeing how consistently you put out updates and how much I am in love with the story and characters, I decided to join as a Patron today. Hope at least for every person downloading here you can at least get a few to support the work you are putting in as well.
I’m also not sure — as with Kaori (and, of course, Maya) — that Yuki isn’t a character with one metaphysical foot outside of the dream bubble that passes for objective reality in Kumon-Mi. I mean, yes, she’s clearly yet another damaged, possibly delusional soul in this collection of painfully damaged souls, but she also seems to have some sort of connection to whatever HOPE is, and to whatever the hell is going on here (if anything is in fact going on, and the whole thing isn’t just psychotic break, and we’re not just cruising for a Brazil ending, which would disaa. So I find her interesting. Borderline creepy and scary, but also interesting.
If you can't afford it, you wait two weeks. Unless it's a "food vs. starvation" situation, "I can't afford it" means you do without. And as great as LiL is, it's not a life or death situation.
You mean the guide mod ? It does tell you how to trigger stuff. But there are 2 different progress buttons, one at the bottom of the screen during gameplay, the other in the pause menu. You wanna click the one in the pause menu, then click the name of the girl you are looking for to check. There it tells you what to do.
Without it I agree, it's kinda rough. On my first playthrough I had 100+ Maya and Yumi affection cuz i was lost.
I'm not sure where you mean. There's 3 options, 'event tracker,' 'girls', and 'progress tracker'. No matter which i click, events, girls or whatever it only shows what I have already done, not what to do next. The text in green (past events) I can click on, the ones in black (yet to happen) are unclickable.
To give an example, how do you unlock characters like Molly?
In one of those sections it may say 'Main Story Progress Needed', but nowhere on how to trigger the next main event, is it just time or something else. I must've gone thorugh nearly 100 days raising stats etc, doing different things, calls, invites, visits etc...but no main story event.
We need a mod that will say the steps required to trigger a main story event.
What's needed for the "Rewrite" event for example?

2) Complete the girls' events evenly; don't prioritize one girl over another.
3) Never, ever do Chika's event Schandenfreude before the CLASS beach event (where you have a chance to be jerked off by one of the girl in your class). Unless, that is, you want to be a bad homie...
4) Use an online cheat editor to set all character's affection and lust to 150 for easiest gameplay. Keep in mind that not all of the girls' stats are immediately editable; for example, you can only set Molly's affection to 150 after roughly 50% completion of current game.
There is no way floor 2 could ever win looking at the choices Sensei gets to make, especially with the shit Kirin pulls off. Fuck off Kirin, even HOPE is a better love interest than you.
Noriko was obviously a better sister, kirin obviously won the challenge (unbiased judge btw) Yasu's outfit was much better than sana's, and touka modeled way better (before passing out)
could someone be so nice and explain me how to get past the event where you jump from the bulding? I think it is called "There is Nothing" It just brings me back to the room with the laptop but I canßt figure out how to continue. I would appreciate the help guys

You mean the one asking for terminals and such?
Okay, that one might take some hunting. First and foremost: Turn on your sound. Selebus has embedded plot relevant details into the audio so just use headphones with this game.
Next, the clues for answering the laptop prompts are scattered across a few different events. Try to remember important numbers that have been mentioned a few times.
Sensei has only one password. Do you remember what it is? Review past events if needed.
If you really can't deal with the scavenger hunt then see the following.

The most annoying thing about this game, even when you raise all the affection and lust etc, events don't just trigger. Sometimes the event trigger is hidden or won't happen for many days.
We need a mod to that tells you what to do to trigger it. The event progress mod you download does not help with that part. We need something that says on the "main window" something like "call x girl in afternoon in 10 days" or "go to such and such location this evening" etc.
The guide/mod doesn't show what to do to unlock the next event (i.e the ones in black) .
i just think it is so weird though, cuz she has her own page and the events of the newer versions have already put at where u can find the events, but not niki's events... they're just not there
I see a lot of complaints about leaks, but it may be worth looking at it from a slightly different angle. Like, people just love the novel so much that they can't wait another two weeks before the public release, but they can't afford to be a patron. And although I admit that being a leaker is not good, downloading the leaked version is fine. And hey, maybe leaker himself is just a generous person and does not do this for profit, because I personally have no idea if they receive income from downloads and how much it can be.
So I HOPE that Selebus does not take this personally. Money will not give you happiness anyway. Praise be!

Pause the game, then look on the left side of the game window, there are other buttons there, some of which are what you are looking for. Especially the guide button, which I believe is linked to the wiki.
All character unlocks happen automatically in main story events. Main events also happen automatically with enough affection among all the girls and having seen up to a certain point on each girl's specific character events.

That last one is not necessarily a good idea, at least to that high a number. This is more likely to cause an event marathon that would leave a player unable to stop and to run into another bad homie situation as a result when that comes up again. I would say set it to no more than the minimum for their last event for the update at most.
If you do things incorrectly for seeing everything, yes. For example, choosing to tell Karin the truth in content from a few updates ago does trigger a sort of bad homie situation, but at least you told her this time instead of her finding out through the other girl in question, her own sister. If you lie, you don't see anything turn red. Everything is able to be seen at this time, just watch how you go about it and make sure your stats are up to the minimum required and you'll be fine.

The answers were given in past events, especially the Trinity 'happy' scenes, if I recall correctly. The event tracker allows for replay of events. It sounds like you hit an event tied to a certain username, which means you have most of the answers, but there is another username to use for progress.

It is possible, my tendency to mistype played hell with my run of that event once I found the answers because of that. Also be careful of case, I didn't test this, but it could be case sensitive like making sure specific letters are capitalized.
