This is how it should look like... did you download the Amstedam folder again for 8.2 or did you used the same as 7.2?

Hi ray3dave,I was extremely happy when the most recent version came out, I eagerly startet playing 0.8.2 - and I must say - and it's sad - that it turned out a big disappointment.

You should be able to find decent smut within half an hour of gameplay if for example you follow the Photoshoot job or the Library job. Keep Morale high to get paid a decent amount and on EASY settings you should be able to have just about everything there is to buy after 3 in game months or so.Like Girl Life but much, much worse. The grind is insane, I've been playing for a couple of hours on the EASIEST difficulty and I haven't seen one of the countless webms in the Amsterdam folder. It feels as if the game is actively mocking you for trying to play it.
That part of whoring oneself is interesting... i cannot seem to find a way to trigger those events for weeks after i find one. Is there an event that starts triggering it like the gloryhole one or is it stat based?Hi ray3dave,
Sorry to hear you were disappointed in the game. I understand you find certain/most aspects of the game take too long which is ok. I tend to dislike all the quick-no-effort-at-all-games that throw smut at you for no particular reason or without any particular effort, which is why I started to make my own game and voila
Perhaps though I overdid it in some jobs and yes I agree at the moment especially the flower job is slow. The Balans one I disagree. Yes it takes a few weeks of in game time to get to the smut (seems like you just stopped before the start), but it will come very steady when it starts and spirals towards a bad ending quickly.
Please remember though this is a BETA version of the game. A lot can and WILL change before the final version. People tend to forget it sometimes
FYI the flowershop will be extended at some point with:

Hope you give the game another try and provide me with some additional feedback. If not, no harm done and I'm sure you'll enjoy some of the other amazing games on this site.

You are welcomeThanks for your response. I am not quitting the game, but you should really make it less repetetive. At Balans I have worked 80 times now, she's getting groped, which startet at about the 45th time I worked at Balans. Come on!
I gave up Balans, only to find that she can't take the model job. Do I really have to start a new game to find the new content in that story line or is it possible to lower the reputation and then try to apply for the modeling job?
Currently broken as well as the pool encounter with him! I only found out by chance this afternoon. I mistyped a variable. Will be fixed soon.Is it still possible to get the weekend beach photoshoot, haven't been able to get it to trigger, not sure if their are requirements outside of not already having the photoshoot career which I do not have.
There are several ways at the moment (more to come at a later stage).That part of whoring oneself is interesting... i cannot seem to find a way to trigger those events for weeks after i find one. Is there an event that starts triggering it like the gloryhole one or is it stat based?
Also thanks for replying here. Its really an enjoyable game and its nice to hear that you are still updatin it.
Wow I didn't expect to get an answer from the actual developer. Thanks for your attention. As I said above your game is pretty damn nice with exciting events but when they are not completed they all lose their fun. I definetely know how hard it is to develop a game and make the players happy with it. Therefore I am waiting for the upcoming updates patiently. I would like to give some advices about the game if you are interested to hear. I played too many games like this and I know what kind of events players enjoy. I am sure you have some things planned in your mind about the future of the game but I just want to help you with it. There is a very similar game which is ''Fresh Start''. I enjoyed it very much as well. You can take some references to your game like drug or smoke addiction, room mates or neighbours maybe, etc. I wish you good luck with the developing process. Looking forward to see more about your game.Yea sorry. V0.8.2 was a little rushed just before Xmas to help you all, but unfortunately it came with a lot of bugs.
Just returned from Xmas holidays and trying to fix the issues before New Year. Not sure if I got enough time to fix it before the New Year as got lots of people coming over so need to organize the house/food/booze/fireworks etc
Is that part of the selfie thing and you replying to me just before xmas talking about a special beach event (With the donny & bill thing?) I haven't been able to trigger any such thing. I am not sure if these are related or not. I tried looking at the code and the selfie thing is a "random 1/3" kind of thing with photoshoot exp levels where donny calls you (In the text it mentions he hangs up and everything) with "donnytask".Currently broken as well as the pool encounter with him!

-Ideas are always welcome. Quite a few ideas made it to the game so if you list them here I will try (if I like them enough) to incorporate them.Wow I didn't expect to get an answer from the actual developer.

-In one of the future updates I will try to have the shower and the makeup combined somehow. So yea I get it you cheated a littleGreat game, but a can't stand the grind stuff so I did cheat a little with notepad++ I had to create a shower + make up scene so she does de hyg and looks and HP together. In qsp you can make actions fast if you remember the options and type - 1,2,1,2,1 etc- but in Twine where you have to click and click and click Is annoying as hell.
The path I took I did buy the map and took the grind fashion stat at library and took the photoshoot job for easy money. Then when I had nothing to do I got a flyer at random in the town first two options (I was trying to get rand sex scenes there), but why the hell the flyer didn't mention that the club opened only on frid-sat? I missed it on the week I found it and I visited the pub many times before I did figure that it was in the 'town menu' the Go Clubbing option. The club is great to those who took the photoshoot job but dunno why she got a STD in the first time I got there and she had condoms on her, the Booz wasn't that high for she "Forget it".
AHA you've been snooping in the code haha. The Donnytask stuff is not live yet so you cannot trigger it. It is part of the phonesystem which will be implemented in V0.9 or V1.0.Is that part of the selfie thing and you replying to me just before xmas talking about a special beach event (With the donny & bill thing?) I haven't been able to trigger any such thing. I am not sure if these are related or not. I tried looking at the code and the selfie thing is a "random 1/3" kind of thing with photoshoot exp levels where donny calls you (In the text it mentions he hangs up and everything) with "donnytask".
I think it's very hard to trigger these events trying to read in the code what to do. I'd love it if you could give us some tips on how to trigger these extra events. I also haven't managed to get the Donny bad-end event - again, I am not sure if these are all related or not.
I like the game a lot though, it has a ton of potential and a good deal of content as is! I hope you'll stay motivated because Life Choices didn't get any updates for a while and then you started pouring out work left and right again!
All but a few (like 10 in total or so) are in use.Another question I must ask to BurningSun is if all the images currently in the Amsterdam folder are in use or if there are some that are not in the game?
Thank you for your extensive post ray3dave.Thanks for your comments, BurningSun. I agree with the others that it is great to have you here and that you share your thoughts. At least we get it pretty clear what you have in mind.
I saw people complain on other games, where the MC turns into a slut out of nowhere and from one moment to the other, it always makes me smile if people take these kind of things to talk about lack of realism in these kind of games. Well... So it is understandable, why you chose to do it like you did. Once again I'd like to point out that you could balance it a bit better, because although Life Choices is a rich game filled with many great ideas and content, still after a while you've seen most of it. And 80plus Days just for one single path without big changes is really very grindy. To stick with Balans - the difference between the first step around 45 and the following is not so big, for another around 40 days you get the same repetetive workday. And there is just not so much to explore meanwhile during the rest of the day.
And as said above, I am sorry that I can't seem to be able do all jobs in one playthrough. It would be good if Lizzy could lower her reputation in order to be able to get the model job or flower shop after a while. And about the Flower Shop - a pure route in a game loaded with gloryholes? Are you kidding me? Please make something dirty out of it, you proved that you can do it.
Positive criticism: I really like the way the Health Club is turning out, can't wait for the future updates because it is pretty obvious that there could be a lot more going on at the pool, in the sauna and the gym. Great part of the update already. I have great expectations for the pole dancing stuff, it is the most obvious thing to do for Lizzy, much more believeable than the gloryhole stuff, by the way. The stuff with the bouncer is nice so far, wonder where this might lead to - it does not seem to earn Lizzy reputatrion, which seems a bit injust to me. Then I guess in the future there is more exhibitionism planned in the park, so far the girl baring her tits does not lead nowhere - but of course it would make sense. The park in general is big fun, maybe there should be some more content at the beach as well, especially the party should lead up to encounzers like the bar (pick up guys or girls). The City contains some nice new ideas, especially the nude run. I tend to avoid the city though, because there you put in lots of traps. At the same time the city offers the biggest amount of content, which is fun.
Thanks for your work, BurningSun!
No problem. I always feel better when I help people with their work. I can list some events you might want to put in to your game-Ideas are always welcome. Quite a few ideas made it to the game so if you list them here I will try (if I like them enough) to incorporate them.
-Yea I understand that incomplete events are a bummer. I try to minimize it, but Amsterdam has grown so much since the beginning it is inevitable I'm afraid.
-Fresh Start is a good game and I've played it quite a few times and it has certainly sparked some ideas that are now in Life Choices. The room mates/neighbours would make for a nice addition, however it will require quite a lot of work and I first like to finish Pregnancy, Virginity & the phone system before taking on anything big again. Small stuff will be added still though.
Glad you like the game so far & thank you for taking the time to comment.
