First of all, I absolutely love games like these and I see what you're going for. Usually to get games with this big a setting, you need to look at Russian QSP games or something.
I had a question about Faoud though. I am now on day 182 and I've completed the flowershop job to it's current end (I think?). I must admit, I've altered the parameters a bit to speed things up, giving 3 exp every time I work there. The whole Mo thing is done and long gone. She's not even thinking about him any more. I thought somewhere at the end of the flowershop job you were supposed to meet Faoud or something? I even see Faoud being mentioned in changelogs, saying his men should appear in the locker rooms at the gym? I've been going to the pool every day that it's possible, but I've seen no sign of them. Neither do I see a coffeeshop? Only the one you walk past and increases your weed desire?
Regarding the balancing of money, I kinda get what people are talking about, but it is supposed to be a porn game, so not going down a somewhat perverted road should be impossible, in my opinion. In a 'vanilla' (unaltered) game, I manage to keep myself afloat by working at the flower shop (cuz I wanted to see if something else would happen), working the streets and drinking liters of tea to raise my morale + health. In the beginning of the game, I might have been save scumming (look it up) to find wallets with €100 in them, but it works... What I do agree on is that now I seem to have to work for half a year to save up for a year membership at the gym. As the gym gives quite a bit of content, I'd propose to lower the price of the year one.
On a sidenote, I'm Dutch, so props to setting the game in Amsterdam
Dunno if you need any help with the Dutch sentences, cuz I think I've seen some spelling/grammar errors.

I really enjoy this game. But, I had a look at the roadmap and personally, I find it dissapointing. I'm not really into pregnancy stuff. I was hoping for more locations and that the events could be made longer. For instance, right now, if her luck is low, she ends up in a back street. Either she gets mugged or groped. But supposing it goes a bit further depending on the choices you select? Also, supposing she actually had the option of visiting these "bad" places? Maybe it would go badly, but perhaps there might be a chance some kind of financial reward...? So for instance, she might find a wallet with e200 in it.
I was hoping she could visit Henry more than once a week. ...I could go on, but, recoding just for pregnancy seams a waste of effort.
Correct. Though I understand the issue. It is a difficult balance between
1) having enough money to force the player to make choices
2) not having too much so that there is no challenge at all
3) having too little making it too stressful for the player.
The game is still in Beta and more paid jobs will eventually be coming hopefully that will make it easier for players in the long run. If not I simply will need to increase the pay per job. For now though I keep it as it is with making small tweaks here and there.

She indeed should not be able to loose her virginity on the streets. There are so many scenarios on the streets/park/beach that I had to block that possibility. Sounds silly as well to me that a girl would willingly on the streets sell her virginity for 20 Euros or so. Online may be a different scenario though
New update... hmm I honestly don't know. There is still so much to do (you'll understand once it is out) that it is difficult for me to see the end at this time. Typically it takes about 2-3 months per update and the last one was at the end of July so that normally would mean somewhere this month. I'm trying to get it done, but I wouldn't be surprised if it rolls into November as -again- there is a lot to do still.

Hey eosar,
Thank you for the ideas. I'm not promising anything, but..... if you would do some digging you will see that I tend to build in things that are suggested from time to time.
Residents in and around the house is planned... or at least in my head it is. I got some ideas to spice up stuff around the house.
The pub needs more love too, will happen at a later stage for sure.
Cheers

Hey Shadowhunter9,First of all, I absolutely love games like these and I see what you're going for. Usually to get games with this big a setting, you need to look at Russian QSP games or something.

Great to hear you love the game! Yeah I've looked into converting it to QSP. I even started with it, but then decided to drop it as it would be too much work and cost too much time to learn the different coding that is used in QSP. This was a long time ago and looking at the size of the game now, it would have probably been better if I had changed at the time. Too late now though.
Regarding the flowerjob and Faoud:
The flowerjob will be spiced up in the future as right now it is by far the slowest one and nothing much is happening. In principle that is not a bad thing as not all jobs should be throwing smut at the player at all times I think, however, it is really slow lol. So it will see some changes in the future.
At the end of the flowerjob (after the scene with Mo in his house on the bed with flowerpetals), you should encounter Faoud and his men in the next morning. Mo left the house and Faoud comes to pay him a visit, but finds you instead.
At that moment, depending on Lizzy's stats, there will be a variety of choices.
The different choices lead to different paths.

Yea the balancing of the money is difficult and I keep trying to get it right, but it is hard. Some like the way it is, some hate it and some get by. Hopefully at some point the perfect balance is found. I'll keep your notes and the ones before you (see my previous post) in mind for the next updates.
Please let me know what I've done wrong in the spelling. Google doesn't always work well and slang sites may have thrown me from time to time with certain explanations/words. In certain cases I may have done it wrong on purpose like with Mo for example. His English is semi-broken and so is his Dutch.

Hey vulf,
First of all I'm happy to hear that you enjoy the game. Always nice to hear that. So thank you.
Secondly, I get you, my time (re)coding the game for the pregnancy stuff could be used for other things. And you are right, it is true that building in the pregnancy will cost me a lot of time, preventing me from building other stuff.
Unfortunately for you though, I believe it is 'needed' in order to build in more risk for Lizzy and to 'simulate' (*cough*) 'real' life situations/choices. It is also a big fetish which people like and I like to build in stuff people like.
That being said, please let me know your ideas about bad events based on luck or intelligence etc. I promise that if I like them I will build them in sooner rather than later. (Some people on this forum as well on the TFG forums will know this is true).
Also, between here and the pregnancy update and also after the pregnancy update there will be a lot of opportunities for me to build in additional ideas/scenarios, so please, don't be too disappointed.
So I hope to see you come back here and fire off some of your ideas.
Take care
BurningSun

You could ask the community for help to change to QSP so it is not a one person job

I have a couple of ideas which I'm not sure could work in the game but what if Lizzy could buy a flat or even a house whether it's in Amsterdam or any of the future cities if she earns enough cash? Another idea is if Lizzy can get a computer and decides to make money online but we as the player can choose what she wants to do like for example simple things like a blog, a Youtube channel (obviously don't use the YouTube name), making content and depending on her sex life she could start her own porn site, a porn blog and if there is an escort option she could have a website or blog on that.

I don't want to sound rude for calling this out, but that sounds just like Kseniya from Girl Life.
Erm, yeah. Now that you mention it, I suppose it does. I haven't played Girl Life for a while. Never made the connection. Well, even if I didn't think of it, it would still work - It would add another dimension to the game. Girl Life has a very fine resolution - You can keep going down into sub levels.
