Just want to point out that I'm also getting this.
By the way, how difficult would it be to add a time of day container to the top of the screen? One that says "Morning" and so on.
Another thing. Maybe add a counter to some of the repeatable events, so that May gets less flustered by them. Maybe even maxing them out shows May going along with it/encouraging it. The old man in the restaurant for example. Maybe after 5 times (or whatever you decide), May just props into his lap and spreads her legs for him to touch her. Could even be a way to introduce bonus pay as others tip her more for her eagerness.

Not by itself (so you might want to keep a save from before the sleepover) but you can see each "step" of the sleepover and choose different options if you go back to the recollection room

...There was a recollection room in this game, huh. I forgot about it completely.

Probably not very, especially since I don't use the top of the screen for anything else. Tho it might create some issues in the future. For now the day counter doesn't do anything, but in the final version I plan on making the game last 30 or 31 days, so could be a nice thing to have if that becomes a thing.
I kinda do that already, but it's pretty minor and usually just to skip a scene's introduction (you already know how it goes and who it involves, so no need to explain everything again). Rn the status quo in the game is pretty much constant, and only a few things have May becoming more comfortable with as we progress. It would be a lot of work, but I do want to expand that to more scenes sometime in the future. It's not what I'm looking to focus on rn tho, so might take a while.
I'm glad to hear! ;3
It's still a WIP and kinda broken, but yes! You can get to it from May's diary. Just pick "recall events".
I'm really happy to hear
Oh my thank you!
I don't exactly intend this game to be super deep, but I do put care in how the characters talk and act... The sleepover was a good chance to make the 3 neighbors talk to one another too, so I hope it helped too xD
Also, I won't promise another sleepover, but at the very least you can expect her to make an appearence on the Halloween update! (Along with some other characters we haven't seen in a while)
They're not the focus of the game, so not a whole lot is planned for them, but at least one May x mom scene will happen eventually!
I'm happy with everything else in this game so far, so I don't mind that they aren't a focus. I love the variety and that this game doesn't rush to it being about sex and all that. I love all the scenes we do get too. A lot of people have voiced these thoughts and I agree with them, however I thought I would also share my voice as a parent appreciator.

I feel the same. Would have been an excellent choice for May being on top... okay, she is, but also not really...
Would be nice if Betty would see May all properly dressed for the night for the first time...Hmm... I'm not a big fan of time limits, then again, normally you could achieve everything in that day limit.
Another game, Wet Summer Days, went so far to let the player play 'forever' if you got the good ending, with the mini-games re-playable. Could also work for this game...
And I wanted to note out a typo, but I couldn't find it anymore. I think it was from Ambers lines in the new Update (wanted at least put a screenshot with it, but maybe i'll find it later again).

Well thanks for sharing your opinion! xD
The parents will probably just get a little bit more of screen time (dad will at most get 1 more, as I'm happy with how things are going with him rn), and mom is planned to get some time with May too as I mentioned.
I just add things based on how much I enjoy them, how much I like a certain idea (the recent dad and mom scenes were actually suggestions I received and not 100% my idea), and how well they fit into the game. So... I'm glad you like the other things in the game too, even if not everyone gets the same treatment.
I feel you... May doesn't actually get to bring her pajamas, does she >.<
I'll still wait for probably the very last version before adding something like that. If the 30 days aren't enough to see everything (and probably won't considering the game will be at least 2x the current size by the end), I might completely scrap it, or add a way to make it go forever. Got a few ideas in mind, but don't wanna share much rn.
And if you find the typo... please let me know. I'm legit terrible with those xD
I'll admit, like others have, that I'm not a fan of timers. I'm even skipping a highly anticipated game (The Blood of Dawnwalker) because of it. I just meant in the sense that we can know how many times we could do something like the restaurant before being sent home instead of spamming Bao, lol. Not that I have an issue with spamming Bao
I also meant like shifts in dialog, where she's a bit more assertive. Like watching the movie with dad. She can simply say she wants to give him a blowjob again without him asking, or maybe just leans over and does it with no dialog other than his enjoyment.
One thing that might help (if it's not in place behind the scenes already. Maybe it is?) is May's lewd level having minor effects on dialog and/or scenes. Of course, you'd have to come up with that if it's not already there, and make it work retroactively with already existing scenes (which is a lot of work, I know. But it goes a long way to future-proofing your game). PaleGrass does something similar with the exhibition level in Lisa (which you are now also doing). Maybe each scene is a point toward her lewdness, and once you have that scene's point or variation of the same scene, you can't get more from it (to keep from grinding it out and encouraging exploration for other content to get the rest).
As far as your plans with some characters, including the parents. It is your game and story, and you have final say, but I don't think there's anything wrong with May become a very liberated character sexually by the end of the game. Including but not limited to, sleeping with both of her parents openly, etc. Maybe engaging in some degree of prostitution at the restaurant. It'll really boil down to your goals for vaginal/anal sex, and how "unhinged" or bonkers you want the sexual content to become late-game or even post-game.
Please don't take this as me trying to impose any hard or fast rules on your game. I honestly really enjoy the cuteness of May's exploration and growing awareness. The pacing still feels great, and not once have I felt that things were stagnant at any point. Here's to hoping the Sleep Over event shows May being a bit more forward in her own advances from here on out. A bit of character agency, if you will.

I get it, dw. One of the biggest problems a timer could add is making you stress out about how you spend each in-game day, become conscious of time sinks like the repeatable stuff etc. Feeling relaxed and carefree is one of the most important things in this game, and a timer could take away from that. For now it's just smth I have in mind for the far future, and if I do decide to add it, it'll have to be in a way that doesn't play against people's enjoyment.
Ahh yes yes, got you! It's something that's been on my mind for a while. The original plan would be for May's attitude to change depending on her """corruption level""", that's hinted by the term under her name, going from "innocent girl" to supposedly "lewd girl" at the end. But balancing that with the game's status quo of May being embarrassed about everything, plus the game not being linear turned out to be a little difficult >.<
So what I'm running with now is mostly she will be able to engage with more lewder activities as time goes on like intentionally undressing in the beach, going streaking etc. Ofc if she is caught or it's brought up she will still get embarrassed, so it's not a full personality change. Another thing I'm doing now is May gets more comfortable around each character as we progress in their questlines, like how she does things during the sleepover she'd never do before being more acquainted with the characters. That should become even more clear later as we progress in their individual questlines too, hopefully!
What you're suggesting is pretty much just an extension of that, but for repeatable content, so it's smth I'm definitely willing to do. Just can't say exactly when xD
As for her being more assertive, that's probably going to happen eventually too. So far her attitude change has only been from unwilling, to reluctant, to cooperative. As long as I can write her acting like that without contradicting anything, it should be good :3

There should be a save.rar right in the game's root folder (where you can find the .exe)!
Ah okay. That's way I couldn't get it to work. I thought it was something I was doing wrong. You are welcome.
