hello. I've tried to open this on mac and all i'm getting is error messages saying: "The application can't be opened." I've tried doing the right-click open on it and it still won't open. This is the third time I've re-downloaded the file and it's successful unzipping and all, but the application itself won't open. The file I downloaded was the compressed mac version. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi everyone,

For those of you who don't know me, I'm the writer for the game.

I just wanted to make a short announcement regarding Caroline.


*There are some minor spoilers for 0.4 included within this post, so I would urge you to read at your own caution.*

I've been given some leeway to write scenes as I see fit based upon the images provided. In some instances, this has allowed me to develop characters' backstories beyond what ICSTOR had originally designed or envisioned.

In this instance I chose for Caroline to have several ex-boyfriends given that she's a young woman in her mid-twenties. It only seemed natural that she would have had some previous relationships by that age. I didn't anticipate that it would lead to a backlash in any way. I strongly disagree with some individuals' claims that she is "the town bicycle" or a "slut," but I'm not here to start an argument.

One of the purposes of Caroline's exes was to provide a sharp contrast of how they treated her, compared with how the player treats her. The nightclub scene served as an example of such. Gradually, as Caroline and the player do more together she realises that nothing is the same as it was with her exes. She gets butterflies in her belly with every kiss, she experiences pleasure that past partners never gave to her, and she learns that she might be able to have a healthy romantic relationship with the player.

Another reason I chose this is because I felt it fitted well with her character. Caroline is a character who strives for maturity and independence (Granted, she can't always achieve her goals on her own). It made sense for her to be proactive in her social life, as well as her work life. This is why I wrote her character as having multiple previous relationships.

The final reason is that Caroline is a character who enjoys sex. She's more than happy to use it as a reward for the player when they assist her in her shop. Why would such a character who is both fiercely independent and
positive about sex choose NOT to date and try to find a boyfriend?

I do apologise if you are unhappy with how Caroline's backstory has developed. Any blame for that lies entirely with myself, and not with ICSTOR. At present, I am working with ICSTOR to make small alterations, including editing away references to multiple previous partners. Thankfully, in this medium of art, nothing is set in stone and adjustments can quickly and easily be made to resolve potential issues.

The most productive conversation that can probably be had regarding this is: Are you happy with any of the women having former partners? (Obviously some like Linda require at least one former partner for logic's sake.)

If the answer is a resolute 'no', then I know I can irk away from it during future versions of this game.

I'll remain around for the next hour or so to answer questions - but it's an extremely active thread, so if I don't get back to you I'm probably swamped replying to other users.
First of all, thank you for coming here to discuss the game with our community, it's always cool when a developer does this :); about Caroline I can only repeat what others have said: there is nothing wrong with her having had boyfriends (it would be odd if she didn't considering her age and personality) however her mentioning them and what she did with them so often WHILE fooling around with the MC felt rather weird; of course it's not such a big deal (for me anyway) but it's something you may want to consider for future updates.

There is a way I can edit my name?
Better ask those questions in the walkthrough thread.

And as far as this talking about previous exploits during bj negative talk....it makes plenty of sense that she would do this considering its already established that shes a talker in bed from when mc fucked her ass-cheeks. Personally, I think its fine and hot when its a game. I love dirty talking sluts!! Lol

Personally I don't really have any strong opinions on the Caroline stuff since I never really cared for her. I did find her kind of frustrating personality wise this update though, she almost felt like a different character. As for the ex boyfriend stuff I think people are upset the way it was handled, not the fact that a woman in her 20s has sexual experience. I don't know about you, but I don't want to be told by a girl about all the times she's fucked a bunch of dudes bareback while in the process of grinding against me which happens in the image below. To make matters worse she won't let you fuck her yet either.

Exactly! There is nothing wrong with having sexual experience for a girl her age, however I definitely don't need to know every single detail of her past sex life :coldsweat:.

x'Dx'Dx'D. Talking dirty can be hot in some situations.

Just a small niptick but i think Caroline's hands should be touching her brothers shoulders or legs to better support herself while she moves grinding his dick against her thighs and clit instead of just being to the sides doing nothing.

This is just a guess on my part as to why there were somewhat negative impacts on Caroline compared to Linda.

Liza told the MC that Linda was very sexual during her youth (she still actually is with the MC) and swinging both ways at that but she never stated any number and/or sexual activities done to become a reference when a person is to use his imagination.

Caroline on the other hand tells the MC about her exes, flings, and other types of relationships she's had with men including the sexual activities she's had and the situations that led to such activities. There was a lot of information that could swarm a person's imagination hence the various judgments posted in this thread about Caroline. One posted that I think was on the mark was "Too much information". In my opinion, Caroline's backstory is beautiful in its own right. The way that backstory was presented caused many negative opinions about Caroline causing her to be misunderstood.

Comparing the presentation of Linda's and Caroline's past. Linda's didn't cause an "uproar" compared to Caroline's and to think that both their past sexual encounters were relatively the same (Linda's past might've been a hell lot wilder).
