Tbh I Don't really understand why people use walkthrough modes for our game. We did everything to make it clear: calendar, quest log with progress bar, interface tutorial and etc.
Does it really smth not clear after all of these? If so, I would be happy to hear more about it and then we can make our game better (if needed)

I can understand modes for money\facility points, but even them can be gained really easy by skipping mini-games

i agree

my mods are mostly for the fun-part - if replaying and want to be fast /overpowered etc
or trying different routes without the need of complete replay
and more importend - to prevent grinding of any form :ROFLMAO:

Well, great difference in file size:
Lust-Academy-0.2.2c-pc -> 1.61 GB
Lust-Academy-v0.3.1c-pc -> 0.84 GB
Hi there, Bear in the Night, has this question been answered? If so sorry, I haven't seen it... I would hate to see a lesser quality version of this great game. Is the image quality preserved or have you made a trade off to decrease file size?
Thanks and take care.

I hate sandbox games, but yours the only one that have my interest(in sandbox) coz of the calendar and quest log and I thank you for including this in your game. :)

just use the ingame hints and calendar?
its one of the few games where you really dont need a walkthrough mod

There is still dozens of stats to keep track off despite having very few real choices. It is either gain points, or lose points, but no divergent play despite being sandbox. Time changes without the players consent, so you have to be skipping days if you want to watch a certain scene. I get that some people like that, but going through all these hula hoops just to catch few scenes is not for me. Good luck with your game.

Not only there are dozens of skills to track off, but there is house reputation as well, girl affection, girl progress, and there is a big inventory. Do you see what am I getting it? All of this is bloat to extended artificial gameplay time with no real reward. You could have cut half stats and streamlined the magic progress and the game would have been a much better, tighter experience for it. But hey it's your game.

Bear in the Night Also the "Flirty" response to Amelie sitting in a chair is talking about the bath in the other picture and all of the Bath scene responses are for the other pic of Her sitting in the chair. I think the MC responses were mixed up probably by accident.

The game seems to be good, but buggy... After the first day at the academy when you try to sleep you are driven back to the main menu and it is impossible to pass day 4.
As I understand this problem is new to this version. Maybe the devs should perform non-regression tests before issuing a release with such a game breaker bug.

Edit: It works properly after a reinstall of the game.

dont have them - must be on your side
Bear in the Night any idea about the bug where when you go to sleep on the first night the game just kicked you out to the main menu?
i tested the save
no bug/crash here
using an outdated mod by chance? ostarion
i did use the walkthrough mod listed on the first page, lemme try removing it

Why new update make game smaller ? 0.2.2c was 1,76 GB now with new version is 0.3.1s 930 MB when you extract thats so strange.

optimization ?

strange - people always brag about game size -- a dev makes it smaller and ... well....

Hey!
We changed the compression method, which one is more effective. So that is the difference + due to the new programmer we cleaned a little bit some trash in folders. So as I said before, don't worry - nothing was cut and the game still have 60fps animations and FHD renders
