Oh FFS, now even RenPy devs are trying to force me to switch my OS to WindowsGarbage™.
Excuse me, why exactly do I need to have Windows10 to launch a piece of software that displays text and a bunch of 2D pictures, that also worked just fine on Windows7 merely 2 months ago?

It's true, us Renpy devs do have the power to alter the Renpy SDK to be compatible with Windows 7 but we have an agenda against them and actively disable it. /s
Ah, so then all the older builds ceased to exist then. Completely eradicated from the face of the internet within the last two months. And they also came into your house and physically forced you to update the old SDK, and replace it with the new one.
Noted.

A you problem living in a bubble using Win7 in 2025 and deluding yourself that Win10/11 is "garbage"

At that point just make the switch to Linux, and stop using a deprecated OS (or don't throw a fit when others stop supporting your deprecated OS).

That's a good point. I'm not too sure tbh. My main focus is building the game for desktop with Steam being my main goal. An Android build is an after thought that I make available just cause people have asked for it but it's not a platform I plan to put much work into as there isn't any marketplace for me to sell on there.
Unfortunately this is just what you have to deal with as an AVN dev. Most people are reasonable but there's the occasional people who aren't. Recently someone tried to hold me at ransom by rating my game 1 star because his phone couldn't run the game and demanded I fix it for him to remove his review. Easy report and got it removed for not being a review XD
Devs don't have an unlimited amount of resources. Making the game as it is takes a ton of time and dedication. We cant cater to the myriad of different demands so the best choice for me is to cater to the majority. If it means the one guy who can't run the game on Windows XP wants to rage at me because I didn't spend an evening building a version just for him, then so be it.
I could do that... And I eventually will...
But then again.
RenPy is an elaborate slideshow projector with a text display function.
The only reason why the new SDKs can't be compatible with older versions of Windows, is because MicroShaft is failing to market its Spyware-Masked-As-An-OS to people, so instead they decide to just blackmail you, saying that either you will switch to a worse product (worse as in: less stable, less resource efficient, worse UI, less secure), or they will make you unable to run anything on your rig.
Also, don't be surprised when the next Windows edition will force you to pay a subscription fee for using your PC, while also designing its libraries in such a way, that moving any of its native software to Linux will be so time-consuming, that barely anybody will be willing to do that.
And then you will be where I am today, where everyone will tell you "Just pay MicroShaft for the privilege of using your own PC, or stop whining when people don't want to support your obscure OS."
Is all of this falling on deaf ears? Clearly.
But I would rather speak up now, than wake up in a world where every piece of electronic is being held to ransom by the monopoly, aware that I said nothing when I could.
But hey, I am just an "unreasonable" idiot, who simply can't get on with the times, I guess.
That's all.
I'm out of here, since I am not really interested in starting a shitstorm, and this is clearly leading nowhere.

So just started it - so far good but weird. So let's get this straight. Five pretty girls but with attitudes that tells you "can't seduce squirrel in heat" (maybe with exception of Angel, but her posh persona is turn-off on its own). Sure, dudes are simple species that in 90 percent of cases need just good looks of a girl to get seduced but still. Besides it's kind of weird to play an erotic game where your ultimate goal is to avoid sexual encounter of any kind. It's like one of those erotic fighting games where all the sexual content are defeat rape scenes (I don't like to lose to "win"). But I'm just at the beginning. I assume there are some sexual challenges or some such thing, but if you are able to avoid them I'm probably going to do just that - I'm a gamer before I'm a lover and I do tend to "play it safe".

Just played through most of what's available, and I must say, I enjoyed it. Story is pretty funny in some places, cute in others. Definitely didn't feel like a waste of time.
I shall add it to my wishlist for now, and probably pick it up if the quality stays the same overall or improves.
A few of the animations could be slightly better with some placement of body parts, but I know it's hard to do.
I've messed with stuff like that as well and it can take hours for something to finally come out just right.

I figured it out just skip the mini game and it lets you automatically win the games.
FapYeah, this game is amazing! The concept, the execution, the girls' personalities, everything! (I haven't been so moved in ages as I was when Julia confessed on our third date.) And that music! Is there a way to download the soundtrack? Launching the game every time I want to listen to a song is... problematic ^^"
Thanks. Glad you're enjoying the game. Since people have taken to the song so much I'll post the song on youtube soon and will link it back here.
EDIT: Here it is - Enjoy!

Seriously, why aren't you already using Linux if you feel this way? I actually use Linux on all my PCs, it's great. Even managed to play all of my Steam games on it thanks to the Proton compatibility layer. And Renpy makes cross-platform builds so easy that almost all games here have a combined Windows/Linux package. I've even played some Unity-based games from here on my Linux laptop, although those need a separate download.
(It's seriously not that hard. Yes, you'll probably need the command-line once in a while, but it's not some weird mythical magic thing from decades long gone.)

Regarding the game itself, I have a question about MC's ruse... I highly doubt he anticipated the sleepover event, so won't his CCTV tampering be discovered? Or are we just supposed to not think about it too hard?
