Cool, could you share the link or add to the OP? I couldn't find it for some reason..

I'd simp for her :love:
yeah, I would too. *disappointed sigh*
I searched for Alexis Fawx escort after reading the above and she used to provide, at least until 2018, but her 2019 Twitter post in all caps seems to indicate she has stopped that side business. Very disappointing.

This is one excellent game, possible to ask how often you plan to release a content update. Per month?
Thanks :). I'm trying to do a major release every 6-8 weeks or so. Might change when there's a transition to working on other characters, but we'll have to see.

I've never commented on a game before but I'm really enjoying this one and wanted to inquire about a couple of minor quibbles I have so far:

1 - Why are the final scenes of each chapter mutually exclusive? I know this is a small issue that is rectified with a save/load at the right time but for completionists such as myself that would rather play both routes simultaneously it's a little inconvenient.

2 - Why was the Intervene for $20 at 17:10 on a Tuesday removed after the first chapter? I quite liked this part, the money situation is the foundation of the game and it made sense on both the love/corruption routes plus later into the game when there is less to buy except gifts it could be used for greater rewards in return for greater payouts. I'm sure there are plans for money further into the game so the last part of the sentence is just unspecific brainstorming so feel free to ignore it and I understand that it's linked to the office assistant job but every woman needs a little extra skrilla from time to time.

Other than that there is a lot here I like, the game feels well paced, the stat grinds are offset well with new content, the office job is interesting, the modelling side job is nice, the private nicknames for each other in the third chapter was inspired, I've not seen anything like that before, and finally there's Alexis Fawx... 'Nuff said.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
1 - Two main reasons, story consistency and because it's better for the structure. I'm not sure where you are in the game yet, but many of the later story events are centered around "first times". And of course it doesn't make much sense to have that happen twice. The level end story events are particularly significant milestones story wise where this comes into play. Structure wise it's best for the content to just move onto the next stage once you finish one. For consistency, avoiding bugs and avoiding any clashes between new and old content (such as a system/mechanic working differently from one stage to the next). It just makes development a lot easier.

That's the motivation anyway. I rather underestimated how many people would choose to do the two paths at the same time. In fact it seems like basically everyone does. It's something I'll have to consider when designing any future characters, so you might find things work a bit differently when we get to those.

2 - I moved away from it because I got the impression most people didn't even find it. It's only available once per week at a specific time. It was a concern I had even before releasing it publicly, and specifically asked a tester of mine if they found it, which they didn't. Honestly you might be the first player to even mention it all. It doesn't really make sense as a daily thing, and would be way too much of a money sink if it was, so its caught in a hard place where people can't find it, but it can't be present much.

Obvious solution is to make it available in a different way, but I decided to just drop it instead. The story moved on from the money troubles between the pc getting a job and jen getting her new jobs. And any good ideas I had for content coming from the shortage event could easily just be done in the paying rent or reward point events.

Saying all this though, if you like the money stuff, you might like something that's coming in the next update :devilish:

Thanks for taking the time to write so much feedback, I appreciate it! Hope you continue to enjoy the game.

1 - I like the two paths and the line between them. Mostly I like the different scenes and different feel on the love vs lewd paths. I played the game all the way through twice.
I genuinely appreciate your efforts at consistency. I had no idea the difficulty in developing games until I tried to do it. Having the idea for a game is the easy part.

2 - I'm surprised that people couldn't find the event. There is only one character that the MC has any significant interaction with and there is a button skipping time until that next interaction. IDK what more you could do short of play the game for people.
I like that scene as well and hit the back button to view all of the shots. You're right, it wouldn't make sense to have that be an issue every week. Although it would be great for the lewd path to pay Alexis to work more and more each time.
