Hey guys, after the last poll, I feel a bit more comfortable taking my time working on the update. I really want to thank you all for your patience and support!
So, I wanted to do at least something in return and decided to release a test-version this Friday, since I have already made so many improvements.

It will showcase a lot of changes, both in functionality and Veronica's storyline, which has completely been updated. Now keep in mind that all the other content/girls will not work and may cause all kinds of bugs, so this is only for Veronica and will require you to play from the start!

Those of you that can't wait to play, or would like to help me test, will be able to download it on Friday. Those that rather wait for the full update (which I completely understand as well), will have to be a bit more patient.

Hopefully this way, everyone is happy :)

So speaking of being happy. The Walkthroughs are extremely difficult to use. Now the majority of the issue seems to be the logic flow of this game is at best Bizantine. Finding some of the events is like looking for a needle in the haystack. For example I need the massage oil. So I go to the sex store, they are out. Then I go to the spa and Amy won't give it to me. The walkthrough say I need Veronica's panties. No hint on how to get the panties from Veronica. Now I've been making Veronica take off her panties for what seems like forever, but never has there been an option to keep them. I find her in her room, no option to get the panties, no option to kiss her, feel her up or anything that might reasonably expect to happen between two people alone in her bedroom. I can ask her to give me money, or drive me, but nothing else (sometimes there's another option, but I forget what it is). Now at night the MC gets to lick her pussy, but only if she's not wearing panties. But if she is wearing panties I don't get to ask her for them.

Also also the actions mostly never change and when they do they don't make sense. Ashley, I've had sex with her once. At the beginning the MC could slide his penis between Ashley's legs and rub her pussy. Now when she comes to my room, she will blow me. There's no option to return to the pussy/penis rubbing or add sex or anything. Kissing in Ashley's room is dry humping only: even after oral sex, blow jobs, and actual sex have been added to the mix. Now Ashley will offer a blow job when you enter the room, but it's a yes or no option. But does she ever offer to put on the cowgirl clothes and fuck you? Nope.

Now don't get me wrong the game has a lot of potential, but it's logic and dramatic flow were clearly cobbled together (as opposed to designed). Now I am aware that you're trying to make things better and I hope make the story feel more realistic, interesting and organic.

So I offer these opinions in the hopes that it will help improve the game (and to, hopefully, find out how to get Veronica to part with a pair of panties).

This is one of the major reasons I wanted to go back and review/update everything (and why it is taking so long).
I improved the hint sytem, added more progression in the events (instead of repeating the same thing over and over) and made the transition to next event a bit more intuitive.

Keep in mind though, that certain stuff not being possible, has nothing do with design.
Making scenes/events costs a lot time, I could keep adding more stuff for one girl for years to come and the game (for at least that girl) would be much more immersive because of it, but most players want to see new characters/storylines added as well. So in the end, it usually comes down to the "spare" time I have for these kinds of things.

I look forward @Faerin like many others to seeing the latest released update, but more importantly, it will be worth it to see one when it's good and ready, rather than one released because of pressure or time constraints.

It is popular because it has a good well constructed storyline, good renders and great animation. It's a compliment to your work that people are so demanding of what you will do next.

I look forward to a worthy update and one that’s properly ready to be released. Keep up the good work.

Yup, as I said, I'm aware of your improvement effort and I applaud it. I'm not even expecting it to be in the next release, but the flow really needs a major rework.

Well in my opinion, you as the creator, get to control what you do. I don't really care what that is. I'll either like your efforts or not. :) But the issue that I see with the game is a lack of a controlling vision or story. Now considering that's a major issue. You've done a spectacular job in making this game. My advice is decide what your story/stories are and then make the game. You've built an interesting set of characters. I absolutely love your images, the girls are attractive and the images are visually appealing. I would also see about getting rid of the time based gating factors (I think that's what you said your attempting to do?) and replace the gating with event or action based gating (you get the next event/gate when you've complete the previous event/gate). That I have to stumble upon an event or scene by being at the right place at the right time is problematical (at least as far as I see it). But I really like large pieces of what I think you're trying to do. All projects (paid or hobbies) are always limited by what can be done, while the people eat, sleep, bath, and spend time with their families/girlfriends/friends. I'm only one opinion (and I have more opinions than average). But all software has the support/rework versus new feature problem. But in my 30+ years of software development experience I've never seen a project become successful and then stay successful without bug/enhancement being dealt with even though the profit motive of new content/features seems to pay the bills. Without the fixes, eventually the sales/support goes away. :) If nothing else use what you learned in this project to make your next project better. (Airplane mode on) Just wanted to say that we're all counting on you. Good Luck. (Airplane mode off)

Can somebody PLEASE help me with Ashley. Ive been stuck for 4 days now. Ive complimented her, ive told her goodnight, ive watched that one porn scene where she jerks me off on her face, and ive done the one bathroom scene where she leaves me with a hard-on. Shes giving me 100s of BJ's in the morning. Today she did send me a pic of Sophia in the mall and ive also been sitting in the sauna with sophia but help guys im stuck. The hint says that sometimes she meets her when she arrives from school or something like that but shes always alone. Ive even watched the map and sophia only comes on sunday. They dont even allow me in the room when sophia is there anymore and i cant do anything on the beach or the date because I only have 9 stars. HELP ME IM DESPERATE LOL. Seriously thanks to anyone who can help. Im sure youve all banged her already.

Has Sophia done more than just sit with you? It sounds like you need to work on her relationship some more first.

For starters, keep doing that, eventually Sophie will get naked and then blow you.
