Dear Witches & Wizards! Welcome to our weekly DevUpdate!
But first, here's a little voodoo dad joke:
Why did the witch doctor keep a doll in his bedroom?
...
It was his fetish.

But, as always, we want to accompany the joke with some useful information, like the release of Lust Academy season 3 v.3.7.1:

I have no idea on how to unlock this scene, any suggestions?

MC: I really want to kiss you goodbye.
Alice: Do boys have to ask permission?

I suppose it depends on your culture, but this generally has been necessary in many western nations for decades now.

Maybe it was a reference to just that.

A kiss from a girl as thank you is nice.
If a boy does it, it's assault.

Yeah, probably. I think the irony is that it's the girl who seems to find the notion odd, but in modern society it's very often portrayed that all men are just oblivious assholes and all women demand permission. Stereotypes: blech.

It's been a while since i played this game S1 iirc.
Can you reject/avoid LI's in the vn mode, or do you need to play sandbox and just ignore their events ? I remember really disliking a few, like the succubus.

 

[stoo12009]

Hmm is the android port broken for getting to Leona? Trying to touch the book at the font just kicks me straight out

It changes from situation to situation. And he loves to repeat past events in dialogues and to explan how well he understands everything and everyone.

 

[Zooooooolfr]

i have no idea how i made it to season 3 with this shitty dialogue, it looks like a third grader wrote it

Last time i played it was back when s1 was unfinished. Coming back - is there a time limit on activities in sandbox mode? I remember it ended abruptly after one of the weekend trips back in the day

In Sandbox Mode, there are 4 time phases each day, and events vary in how long they are. Some events don't even take up a full phase and others can take up multiple phases (or, rarely, even days). Most events take one phase of a day to complete. So if you run out of phases each day / days in a week, you'll get transitioned suddenly to a trip to Dale on weekends.

Going to Dale takes all of Saturday's Morning phase, so you arrive and it's Day already. On Sunday, you have only Morning and Day, and then you return to the Academy (which takes the entire Evening phase), so it will be Sunday Night when you're back.

Other than the above, nothing should end abruptly unless you're at the very end of a season, where the game might require you to create a special save that the next season will use to continue.

How is end of season defined nowadays? Is it some main questline progression?

How is end of season defined nowadays? Is it some main questline progression?

Basically each season ends with the MC and most other students returning to their homes for a few weeks / months. So the timeline goes something like this:

• Season 1 Prologue (the game introduction, at the home of Don, Olivia, Samantha, and Ashley). Then you have Year 1, Semester 1 at Cordale Academy, with all students returning home at the end.
• Season 2 Prologue (the season introduction, at the same home as previously, where some events happen while the MC's back home again). Then there's Year 1, Semester 2 (at Cordale again), with some students having gone for the semester, on exchange or personal matters. Everyone returns home at the end.
• Season 3 Prologue (the season introduction, like with Season 2, with events back home with the MC). Everyone then returns again to Cordale and you begin going through Year 2, Semester 1. More things have changed, as the MC and his classmates are in their second year (and so have different classes, for example).

So when everyone returns home (but before the game takes you through what actually happens at home), you should get the game asking you to make a save for the next season. Keep each season in a separate game folder. I have a Lust Academy folder and then a Season 1, Season 2, and Season 3 folder within that. And finally I have the folder for each update inside a season folder.

When you start the next season, you should choose to start a new game and follow the prompt to import your season save (different from a normal save you make). After it's imported, the game should just continue with the MC back home and go from there.

Not quite what i meant. I was wondering if season end trigger is doing a questline, or something like having x weeks pass which would, in fact, turn it into a time limit

When you finish all quests for the "Main" (shown on the characters screen, under the MC's portrait at the very top of the list), then the end of the semester happens. IIRC the final "Main" quest triggers the end of the season automatically (although I might be misremembering). I believe that can happen even if you leave some characters' progress unfinished, although I've never done that to confirm.

An, gotcha, thanks. That is much more clear

No Victoria, no fun. I agree.

Well I won't show a spoiler, but.....
In version 3.7.1 the MC get's bitten on his scrotum by a monster, and guess what, Victoria is very happy to suck and pump out all the poison for him lol
You will love it.
Hmm on second thoughts I will show a spoiler, but only of when he get's bitten hehe

I guess you could say, Victoria sucks the life back into him, after the monster try's to bite off his manhood..
