Hi naughtyroad, great game and all but i had a question.

When do you usually do releases? Or is it more a case of "When it's done it's done"?

Edit: Also, what kind of paths are there?

 

[Bad Robot]

Some devs probably do. Trying to get every fetish tagged, no opportunity to pull in a sub left unexplored. Me, not so much. I feel in trying to do everything at once, you can't do anything very well, so I prefer to stick with trying to do just a few things but do them well.
Add to that that I do not particularly enjoy corruption scenarios, and coercion even less so. I'd never be able to write them well, nor enjoy the process if I attempted it, so I won't.

I don't agree with you here, because I totally feel like the main character is being coerced by Denise. Half the shit she pushes him into...

Well, done when it's done sound about right. Chapters are massive, and a ton of work, and they have to be just right as there's no do-over to a release.

Paths, well, almost every character can be locked out, but you can have your way with all of them without locking yourself out of anything including the current release. Any choice that will lock you out of the paths with Macy and/or Denise will give you a very clear warning message. For the others, well, if you want to have fun with them, go along with their shenanigans, if you don't care about them, then don't.

There's a bit of a reluctant caretaker path, which is to say that if you don't jump both feet into whatever crazy thing your ward(s) suggest you do with them but pick the "are you sure we should?" kind of answers, you'll find they're going to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in convincing you you definitely should.

I don't agree with you here, because I totally feel like the main character is being coerced by Denise. Half the shit she pushes him into...

You're not wrong there, but that's just youthful curiosity and enthusiasm. And you can still refuse (at the penalty of locking them out, sadly).

Oh yeah, the good ole days. I remember teen me going to the grocery store down the street (fuck knows why this shy bumbling fool did that, everyone there knew me and I'd be returning there a few times a week for years to come) to get a playboy with some actrice I really fancied, along with some groceries I didn't need, and stammering something about gift-wrapping the thing because it was d-d-definitely a gift for... eh, someone. Man, I still cringe thinking back to that.

Way better way compared to what i did. Walk in. Search for the desired products. Read a bit through them. Go to the counter where the women who sold it started a conversation with me and i babbled like an idiot avoiding all eye contact. Turning red seeing my math teacher behind me in line. But i thought he didn't notice me. Followed by a small heart attack the next day in school as he literally says to me "calculating percentages comes in handy especially when buying certain magazines right?" to which i could only nod and try to "merge" with my seat because dying on the spot was beyond my skills......

I remember the day I went to the convenience store that was on the other side of the street (which I'd never gone to before) and saw Penthouse magazine... I didn't even know there was more than one porno mag. It blew my mind when I want to an adult store and they had an entire aisle of magazines. LOL

Now I wonder if adult stores even exist anymore... Who goes to them?

Anyway, I love this game. Only thing I don't like is that I wish the MC was awake for his first blow job from his older "ward".

So true. The sad part when my adult shop closed was that many older guys got mad very easy and that was when i knew that not all of us knew about the internet or the fact that it is now open for everyone to enjoy and the fact that most elder guys have no clue of how technology nowaday works adds up to that problem. But who would have thought that porn magazines had that much effect? Ofc some of us could show it to them.
But how would you break it to them?
"Hey old fella mind if i show you something that you might fancy so you get that tickling in your balls again?"

You would be dead in 5 seconds.

I also wished the MC would have been awake when macy had her tasting but the way it happend was hot as hell and funny at the same time.
Ok are you done cleaning?
Hold up i missed a spot.
Where?
Somewhere i am sure.....

 

[a1fox3]

In this last chapter Macy gives MC a hand job and a partial blow job while MC was asleep.
Sleep sex tag added.

I am not for sure if "Oral Sex" tag is needed but Macy used her mouth to not only clean up MC spunk but she put his most of his dick in her mouth for a very long time cleaning up the mess.

But it gets the Oral Sex tag for what the girls did in the bath tub.

• Oral Sex [Sexual act involving the stimulation of the genitalia using the mouth.]
  
  Does this need the "Dilf" tag?
  Dilf [Sex act with an older man who appears to be within the age range of 30-50 (doesn't need to be a parent).]

Ugh... Could you imagine trying to search for porn using a flip phone or a blackberry?

No wonder they're angry! People tell them to go find it online and then they try to search on one of those...

The scene with Macy was hot, I just don't like sleep sex and want the MC to be a willing participant. In my playthrough I turned down Brooke (I think I wasn't supposed to introduce her as a co-worker... oops!) and the MC has fucked everyone else at work so now the only thing left is going to be either someone new or the girls... But I don't see the girls happening soon... Not complaining at all just realizing that I may have to go back and redo the Brooke decision if I want the MC to get anything. Which would be my 5th playthrough...

Man you guys make me feel like a proper little hustler. Mid 80's, I was 12 years old. Porn mags are not age restricted where I live, (neither were cigarettes back in those days if memory serves). Step 1. Convince all your scaredy ass friends that porn can be looked at, if they pitch in. 2. Take in enough money to cover the cost of dirty magazine (didn't have the lack of morals/balls/take your pick to over charge). 3. Scout proper location (little frequented tobacconist pretty far from where I lived). 4. Steel yourself and walk in and buy the dirty mag. Old man who works there couldn't care less and no chance of meeting anyone you know. 5. Let your friends read them as much as they like in your room but keep them, as you've bought them. 6. Repeat steps 1-5 until they've all grown big enough balls to buy their own porn (took a while for some of them).

LOL, in my neighborhood there were two stores that sold those mags. 1) the place run by family friends where my dad once worked or 2) the place run by immigrants who carded for EVERYTHING... So yeah, I had to wait until I was old enough to buy the mags. LOL

Of course there was always the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue...

 

[TheSidewinder]

Reading all the walks down memory lane you lot are posting is sure good fun. Enough has been said, so I won't add to it. (There's also plausible deniability. cough)

But man, oh man, youth is sure wasted on the young, innit?

 

[mannice431]

We need a gallery for this game (not just the still images, the whole scene).

If we knew in our youth the shit we know now we would do alot of things differently.
Once you realize that no one knows shit of anything in life it sure becomes easier.
Especially when u have your own kids and everyone bullshits you until you get to your dad or grandad handing you the facts: "Make sure the little fucker doesn't die and you should be fine"

Of course there was always the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue...

Catalog of female underwear.....

We need a gallery for this game (not just the still images, the whole scene).

I agree on that one but we also need a movie, merchandise, porn videos, spin off series like Conan, Space, Cyberpunk etc.

And i already know the plot of the Conan inspired one.
MC will train Denise and Macy in the Arts of War, Seduction and conquering the world with them...... also lots of lots of sex, dead ppl and goblins. Never forget the goblins. They are very important.

 

[MattShizzle]

One thing - the younger one with how little she knows about sex, you'd think she was like 10, not 18, other than her looks.

 

[MattShizzle]

The older one is hottest. Looking at her thought she would be slutty but wasn't. At least I got her not mad - anger is 2 or 3 and love at 10. I think in the next 2 updates they are ready to rape the MC. Unless they already did - technically sex with someone out of it drunk is rape but then a BJ/hand job isn't really sex.

Yeah, IKWYM, the source material is quite adamant about the state of consciousness for the patriarch though. Even so, the whole thing is avoidable without serious consequences.

Sadly not possible. There's to much variation in the scenes from your earlier decisions to save that and carry that over outside the game session. But ren'py allows for neigh on infinite saves, so make your own gallery.

Well, I did make quite sure that the MC's given his consent before, even if he's not quite sure what he signed up for.

 

[fried]

My magazine/found photos/8mm/VHS/cable stories would put all of yours to shame, but you don't see me bragging about it here ...

Let's hover near the game in discussion, please.

 

[szieve]

nice game ... the delays and timed fades and black screens are a bit annoying though...

 

[Kungpaojetli]

Truly enjoyed playing this excellent game. Thank you naughtyroad!

I hope future updates will have more MC x big "ward" contents just to balance things out.

Already prepared for that with multiple saves and games installations. But i have to say after replaying the game from start again.
The feeding of sierra..... made me spit my coffee out.
