[BitingTheBullet]

Out of a total of 400 votes combined from both questions, here are the poll results.

1. Natasha - 54
2. Eliza - 48
3. April - 47
4. Savannah - 44
5. Piper - 41
6. Linda - 40

Definitely surprised that Alejandra was a sleeper waifu for a lot of guys. And also that Lili was so low. Honestly expected them to be opposites.

For those who voted for the top 6, congrats!
For those who didn't, don't fret. I might use one of the girls as a side-piece/one-off fling.

After this poll, the Official list of Love Interests are as follows:

1. April
2. Costanza
3. Eliza
4. Fiona
5. Kaylee
6. Linda
7. Natasha
8. Piper
9. Savannah
10. Sylvia
11. Torrie

Now that the selection is clear, expect future content to be focused on these ladies and for those who are vary about development burden and what not, It's okay. I've got a good amount of time in these three months to put a tight plan together without it feeling forced.

Hey, I'm finding that the skip unseen text function, even when turned off, will still skip text about 50% of the time? It's acting weirdly inconsistent.

Is it just me, or did you use two different models for Fiona...? It was particularly striking for me because one hairdo is used for a mid-30's character in Braindrop's WVM game.

Going through a skip playthrough, I checked out Eliza's path for kicking in the arcade door, but had 1/2 Strength, kept going down the branch after failing, and then got an error for the respect relationship choice.

It does rollback surprisingly cleanly, though.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

thanks for pointing it out. Definitely a mistake on my end. It's supposed to be MC_resp not MC_respect

I'm fairly sure that the persistent data got screwed up. I'm making fresh version for Windows and Mac.

Fiona's model was the exact same
Just heavier makeup around the eyes, glasses and different hairdo. It's like she's Clark Kent with glasses and Superman without em.

I'm not 100% sure on this so take this with a grain of salt. But when I was speed running through the game picking asshole choices to get rude points to see the Piper scene. I saw one with Linda I missed so either I just picked the wrong dialogue or choices or she needs rude points as well.

I dont remember putting Linda behind any rude paths. You likely ran into an alternative route for her or something.

Thanks for sharing very good review

 

[Dessolos]

I'm just happy Eliza and April made it to the list the most after their introduction they quickly become ones of my new favorites. Sylvia still my favorite character but unsure if I will or wont peruse her as a LI probably will cause every interaction with her makes me like her that much more. While I wasn't worried about Fiona , Kylee or Costanza glad they are on the list.


I'm more surprised about Natasha for me she was kind of mid for me. She is someone id go after before Piper and Torrie but everyone else before her haha. Tho I was kind a hoping June might of made it on the list was setting up to potentially be an
okay or fun storyline. As if I recall correctly she was wanting to keep things a secret from Fiona if you did date.

 

[Acsuka]

I was a bit surprised by the ranking of the girls... However, I am happy that the three girls I like are on the list. Costanza, who is a "bunny girl" and seems nice, is also MC's friend's sister, so the story will be even more interesting... Fiona, of course, because she is a red-haired and cheerful party type... Finally, the "secret favorite" Sylvia. I have very mixed feelings about her because she is "unfortunately" MC's little sister and I don't feel the "incest" is right in this game... However, I love her character because she is very cute, modest, beautiful and overall a very lovable girl...
I'm really looking forward to where this story goes and how the characters can connect with each other even more... Because I don't think the best LI is the girl who "gives herself in" first...

Anyways thanks for doing this. I appreciate all comments, even the Mommy and Alex pitchfork guys.

Your game deserves more love so glad to do my part and see some people willing to try it out and I wonder why they deleted your post mods can be weird on reddit I guess also ignore the Alex and Mom pitchfork guys they are both unhinged on f95 and on reddit that doesnt change no matter where you go lol

Who knows why. I didn't bother asking.
As for the Alex and mom crowd, I'm fine with it. I can 100% understand their frustrations from a reader/player perspective. There's a lot of things I wish the MC in my favorite manga did and sometimes I can get annoyed with the mangaka. Over the years though, I've been getting a deeper understanding at things I used to question. I guess the only difference being that I never cared enough to vocalize/comment it.

 

[BitingTheBullet]

Well if you are taking questions there is one thing that has been kind of bugging me since I played this wonderful game for the first time and my theory probably makes little to no sense especially when you consider dev time. Since the MC is away for 2 months is it safe to assume most of the girls we met at the university are side girls? Cause to me living at home away from them feels like a mini reset of the relationships of a sort cause I cant think of a reason why they would visit us or we visit them before the 2 months considering exams are close.

Cause as of right now my theory is there is 2 sets of main girls depending on a decision we probably will make about our fathers company later. I would think that decision influences if we stay at home or go back to university and which set of main girls we would be able to peruse / be near. But that theory doesnt make sense to me when you consider the dev time I think. So it's something that been on my mind alot and bugging me. If it's something you dont want to answer cause it will be spoilers about future content I understand but figure id ask anyways.

Thanks for making this wonderful game it's in my top 10.

The college girls aren't side pieces. They were set as LI way back in chapter 2.

Back when I started with old chapter 1, I was leaning towards splitting the game down the middle as you've mentioned. At the time I was a very, very gullible developer thinking I could do it with a goddamn GTX 760. I could barely load more than 2 characters yet I was a dreaming about super large crowds and wide open, detailed areas.

However, I'm changing the direction into try and incorporate both areas. I always intended to do multiple time-skips to show MCs progress into not just fitness but also education, maturity, discipline and physical appearance. This was set to take place over a 5 year period.

Now In Chapter 5, MC WILL head back to college, do his thing with the ladies, take his exams and meet up with his buddies.

Right now, the three morality stats have shown hints of coming out here and there but at the end of ch5 is when they'll (Lineage, Legacy and Descent) points come into full-play and have 3 separate paths.

I just hope my gullibleness hasn't evolved into naivete.

While I have my own biases for girls like Piper and such I am of the mind of respecting what the authors vision of things are I believe that letting devs and creators work on what they want and like brings out the best work they can create but thats my personal take on such things.

I do have to say I am very happy Piper made it to the main girls we need at least one wild type badgirl love interest for variety plus AVN need more black women they are too underrated and rare to find.

Thank you for your answer. It was always a concern of mine with this game moving forward to be honest but with your answer I feel more at ease now. While it's early in Chapter 4 I never got the feeling there were going to be alot of time skips in the game with how things been progressing with the relationships overall. So that's why I was always a bit concerned about the direction. But so far this is a top 10 game for me so I look forward to the next update I am sure I will like what you do with this game.

Also one side question I didn't think of asking till now. Is there any plans to put this on steam eventually even if it's not until the game is completed.

You're welcome.
The more I think about steam the less I want to put it there. It's almost like it's not meant to be but I'll see what the future holds.
