This game needs a pregnancy mechanic like Violated Heroine.
You mean the whole system like dangerous days, getting pregnant, stages, etc. Or more the fact that you can run around with a pregnant belly, have kids, etc? That would be a lot of art changes and VH used more of a layer system than the static art I currently use.

Hey, a guy can dream can't he? :D
Maybe a few more game-over cg's with preg bellies would suffice for now. :)

Hey Y'all,

I made a shitty mod:
+ all the way through
+ pubes for the blue hair and brown hair girl
+ slightly more distressed expressions

True! I just finished up a new Game Over scene and still need to write it but it does have a few pregnant bellies in it. Some future scenes will probably feature it as well, so baby steps.

And neat mod! I'm glad that someone figured out you can edit files and replace them to add things you'd like to see. Thanks for sharing it with the forum! : >

Yes, I guess it would be a lot of work to draw all the image variations.

Well....Ive mostly lurked around the forums but this game, its so far pretty nice. Arts pretty good though only 2 stages for grabs is a bit of let down, 3 I think woulda been a better gradual push, but beggars cant be choosers.

Also game freezes for me at times.
I don’t know if a windows 10 thing or I have to play in full screen.
I use windows 10 as the OS for development and I haven't noticed any issues. Are you running it on a laptop by chance? The game uses a 1024x768 instead of the default RPG MV 816x624
Is there any areas in particular it freezes (Battles for one) or any accompanying error messages or just stutter?
Oddly enough, RPG MV has a suggested 1280x768 screen size and 4GB ram. Let me know what you find out and I can see what I can do.

I am planning a larger release in April before I go on vacation but there may be a few bug fix/adjustment builds inbetween now and then. I posted a "Pulse Check" blog on itch.io for more information.
Ok Thank, good luck with the development

Hello OP,

Just a heads up: I would suggest removing the brackets in around the version number in the file name, such as "Mira Co Recuse [0.3.3c].zip". Doing a simple extraction of this compressed archive results in a folder with brackets. Sometimes games packaged and extracted (especially from small developers as found on this forum) become . This can happen not just for the game executable but also the game files. Blocked files can result in game errors, slow load times, etc. Rather than manually unchecking each file, one could run Powershell (in Administrator mode) and do something like this for example:
dir "C:\Files\Pornstash\HG\Mira Co Rescue 0.3.3c" -Recurse | Unblock-File
(Note to others: If you have any spaces or whatever in the file name then, just like the above example, you'd want to put quotes around the filepath/directory/etc. after dir command otherwise you'll run into errors. And pasting from your clipboard in Powershell is down via mouse right click, not Ctrl-V)

This would in theory remove the Blocked File flag for every file in the Mira Co Rescue 0.3.3c directory -and- all subdirectories. That's how I usually fix my blocked file problems... however this ran into a snag. What I figured out was that the brackets in the folder name somehow didn't agree with Powershell. Removing the brackets fixed it.

So, with all that said: I think it would be helpful not to use brackets in the archive file name, so when people extract, their folder names don't have brackets by default, and if they need to fix blocked files, they'll have an easier time doing so without having to troubleshoot.

I am running Win 8.1, however Win 10 runs into Blocked File issues as well, so I don't think this is an exclusive problem. I'm not a dev for I don't know how you distribute your game so it doesn't trigger Windows blocking the files (because it sees the file originating from a foreign system), though I know I don't always run into this issue with other games found on this forum.

Hope this helps. Enjoying the game thus far, thanks.

Hello there! I was not aware of this sort of an issue occurring with the game's file name. I've heard/seen some bug reports on various issues occurring with file names and odd lag so I wonder if it is in relation to what you've described. I will hopefully be posting a bug fix build soon and will update the file name to not include brackets anymore.

Thanks for posting this information! Hopefully this helps with some of the intermittent issues that have been cropping up.

And thank you. Yeah, the bracket thing will only make it easier to unblock files. Though now I've been doing some more reading on this. Apparently... all this blocked file crap has to do with NTFS alternative streams, or basically a flag that's applied to every file downloaded via most popular browsers onto a Win 8.1 or Win 10 system as part of the security system, as explained here:

So the brackets thing helps with the command I mentioned, however to solve the blocked file issue... apparently the zip that people download comes in as Blocked File, and when you extract the zip, then the files that come from it are all blocked too. However, if you unblock the zip first, then all the files that come from it (should) be unblocked as well.

Hence, when you're troubleshooting a user's bug complaint, you might want to ask if their game files are blocked, because blocked file do indeed cause issues. I've been very diligent in unblocking file with a lot of games I get from this site and it's served me well in most cases as I've noticed I don't have as many bugs as I used to when playing most games. Depending on the game it can makes a substantial performance difference.
