That's very solid feedback, thanks. It took me longer to read this as I was busy working on version 0.39.
A smartphone Health App that depicts all of Oniichan's stats is already on the agenda. It will list things like your achievements and maximum energy.
The Lewd Conversation follows the same rules as the Casual Conversation but with higher failure rates. This will be addressed in 0.39 with lower failure rates and more closely tied to her Trust. Very higher Trust will open her up to Lewd topics at the same rates as Casual topics. This is a placeholder fix that is serviceable to unlock all lewd content. In 0.4x, the Lewd conversation mechanic will be revamped to give you more agency to do the corrupting instead of relying only on her interests.
There will be a maximum negative Attraction in 0.39, capped at either -20 or 0, depending on your previous relationship choice in the New Game setup.
The RNG for Casual Conversation is skewed in favour of winning, and as you level up your Trust, good results become more likely and bad results less likely. If you had ~120 Trust you'd still be fairly low level for 0.38: 1, 100, 250, and 500. These values are tweaked in 0.39 to 1, 80, 200, and 400. The results of positive and negative outcomes are also being made more predictable from -4 or -2 in with low trust to -2 or -1 with high trust.
Her Mood influences everything, and in 0.38SS, it is already the case that a good mood protects against bad conversation results.
New mechanics to gain Attraction are introduced in 0.39 as well, like skinship.
I do want to work on the QoL of the Banking App, but that's not super high on my priorities list, currently.
Closing off: the strategy should be pretty clear now. Increase her mood to normal or superb, and then gain her trust through interactions. If an interaction goes bad, it lowers her mood instead.
Great feedback overall and much overlap with what I had in mind already, which is encouraging. I hope you'll stick around for the development ride as I flesh out the game further. Undoubtedly, more feedback will be needed in the future!
Ok, so after played this game a lot (and i mean a lot, is my free time, let me do whatever i want with it) im positive i can give some feedback:
The good things:
-You can spend time with the sister, and she is cute (except in some cases) and... really not that wholesome.
-The little scenes that are in there are good, a little of voyeurism is never bad.
-The gameplay loop is not that bad and since this is a renpy game, you can just up scroll any failed conversation, to try again (really useful in lewd conversations)
-The bank and saving's system is good and fun, i think it works
The bad things:
-The game is really grindy, and i mean really, trust is easy to get, but attraction is a real pain in the ass, the dev say that it gonna change it, but as now, is a fail, scroll up, then fail again.
-The attraction pointer is bugged, so only some conversations gonna rise the attraction points if you do it well, so you need to fail and fail again, only to find that that topic dont works to rise attraction.
-The take a bath together dont work, dont know if is not implemented or if is bugged, but never worked for me.
-The play a erogame dont give attraction points, gonna assume is broken, since the ingame tutorial say that was a way to rise attraction.
-You can only see her tits in night minigame, and yes i read that sex is not in the game, but you cannot see her pussy, if she is asleep, she wake's before you see it, and if she is awake there is a gameover before you cannot see, try it in a normal run, then with console enabled.
-The game is broken in the trust area too, why to have a conversation with her getting at max 2 points of trust, when you can see the TV with her using any of the two first option, and get at minimun 3 points without RNG?
-I choosed to be an student, and the money i got for budget dont even let me buy all the food of the week, let alone any drink, or go out with her, i needed to get money from the saving, in general a confusing system.
-The mood is another broken thing, one day she can love you, then next day hate you, and is (again) a RNG thing, i found that by saying that you are going to bed, see her portrait to know her mood, then up scrolling, canceling the interaction, and click in her again reset it.
-The smartphone and smartwatch menu is weird and annoying, pretty sure it dont work as intended since it not show all the information.
-Gonna skip the house chores part it seems to be incomplete
-We really need a weekly fee to play a game that we buy and own? Even ubisoft dont dare to go that far (EA and Activision maybe)
-Some animations are real creepy, like when she "Is shy" and all the pool part is real creepy man, the part when she talks and move the head, remenber me these south park characters terrence and phillip.
-Some drinks dont even know what are they use, like the sake or the beer, at first i think she would be deep sleep, but nothing.
Personal opinion:
-Is not a bad game, but it need a lot of work, is good since it have a lot of potential, but we all can see the alpha is really short and real grindy, it take a lot to max it, only to found that it dont work.
-Put the next version in the only subs side, i think is wrong, since you can get more feedback for the people playing, let us know about the changes so we can help, and it feel bad that a game that dont even have the basics to be a porn game dont let us access the new content, can understand it that if was somewhat complete, it feels like "Ok, you already try it, now pay to get more content" when the game really dont have much
-I really want if you can expand the nightime options, idk anything about renpy, so idk if what im about to say can be done, but have interactions clicking the places would be good, something like the game where it took inspiration, imouto monochrome and imouto seikatsu (im fan of both)
-Regarding the bush thing, i think that let the people choose what version they want is a good solution to the people complaining, since some people like it and some others (like me) not
-In the "Can i ask the dev for this?" part, i would like to request if you can add Anal in the future, to feel it complete, since oral is planned, and it not have problems with the "Never implemented" tags
-Hope the game update and do it well, is fun and all, and sorry if i stuck in some part's or anything, my english is not that good, take care, and great game
