It's not needed, but I want to add it. This game is focused on a post-modern setting that's going to be slowly merging with fantasy. So mystical creatures and other oddities will slowly start to make an appearance. This includes but not limited to furas and other such multi-sexed beings.

As for sex scenes, there are ways MC can have an NSFW scene with a futa that doesn't involve him taking a dick. What about MC and a futa character tag team a couple of cute babes they find out on the town? What about a mutual fap session? What about MC just railing the Futa themselves and watching as she absolutely blasts herself in the face?

Options options options!~
I wrote in a previous post that I'm not talking about male/futa or futa/male, but futa/female ...

It is silly to think that they need to have sex with each other to "function cohesively" or to care for each other lol, specially when they are just not lesbian/bi. It is a coomer fantasy the notion that all women con just turn bi for convenience or have (sexual) interest in other women, most don't, unless all your characters are bi which I guess you could do if you wanted.

About them being just "dolls for the mc to fuck/play" I dont see how they getting fucked by other girls in the "harem" is making them more "people" or "independent" or "realistic" if anything, it just shows that if they are not getting fucked one way or another then they really have nothing else going on in their lives. No ambitions, goals, hobbies, friendships, personality, nothing, all they do is sex. So that makes them more like brainless sex dolls that only think about sex, just not only for the mc but for whatever is available in their proximity.

I dont really know why make this issue a discussion of values (lol) and what not, if you like lesbian sex or have a lesbian fetish then go ahead and include it in your game. But dont make it seem like you include it for values or because it makes sense, or "empowers" the characters because really it doesn't.

A girl that has no interest in lesbian sex is not a sex doll and it doesnt make her less of a person or less of a realistic character than one that just falls in love and fucks whatever she has in front of her and needs to get fucked constantly or else she cant function or work cohesively with the group. She can be in the harem, care about the other women and consider them friends/family without having romantic feelings or sexual interest for them, she could even feel certain jelousy or a sense of competition, maybe she doesnt like/doesnt get along with a particular member, who knows. I think that makes it more interesting and makes their characters more like actual people than just the usual "Oh I fell in love with MC but I also fell in love with every single member of the harem and turned BI lol, how convenient for me, lets all have sex 24/7"

And I'm not saying that the dev should change his game, just bothered about the reasoning he is using. Just say you like lesbian so it will be in the game. Period.
If I was to ask for anything it would be to make the voyeur scenes avoidable/skippable because I just have no interest in voyeur scenes or lesbian stuff outside of threesome/foursomes,etc.
You make some solid points to this, however, I have some counter-arguments.

This game is good and I understand you (dev) are still getting the ropes, but I wish the next updates are bigger and we finally some see growth in the new one

That said, I don't know if it is happening because I'm playing on Joiplay, but the animations are showing like a popup and then go to the normal render

I was replying in kind to this specific portion where you specifically say "And if it's male/futa what's the point with girls with a dick that won't be used? "

Why then Futa in the game needed? And if it's male/futa what's the point with girls with a dick that won't be used? This is some kind of nonsense.

Thank you for the support! I am working diligently at getting better/faster. This update has been my largest to date by far, and the progress/speed will continue to rise as best as I can. As I've said in previous posts, I work a job outside of this, so I'm doing my best lol. Expansion/growth will be a small bit out still. I want it to fit thematically in the story, which I have a plan how to do, but there's no way I'd be able to fit it within the next update or two. MC has to go back and get his belongings before returning back to the new property. The growth events will be directly tied to the property, so there's a bit of a time n place gap there lol.

As for the animations issue, I think that might be because of Joiplay. Animations are working fine on my end and from the few I've talked to that have played through the new update, everything was working fine. My apologies but I'm not sure how I'd rectify the issue for better support on Joiplay.

Thinking on it now, the only thing I could think of would be that the animations are .webm files? Have you played other games and the animations work fine? If so, it could be the file type and I may need to swap them out for .avi or something.

Also, please let me know if it's every animation in the game, or only specific ones. There are 4 unique animations right now. Space-themed tit/blowjob with Lawson, Orra jerking off MC, Orra blowing MC, and then the optional condom-filling animation post-game just before the credits.

Gay stuff is avoidable thank goodness.
Love the characters. Just wish they had normal eyes for the cat girls.
Cats have irises that cover a majority of the front of their eyeball. Look up some pictures online, you'll see that cats often have very little or none of the sclera visible under normal conditions. Only becoming visible when at an extreme angle or when their eyelids are pulled back. MC, Jade, and Sylvie are Nekos. They feature hybridizations between both human and cat, thus if they have cat eyes, it would make sense for them to have legitimate cat eyes.

If your game's story is that in the year 2038 people are more "open minded" and more flexible in their sexuality then it makes sense why most of them are bi-curious so at least it is somewhat justified by the lore here.
But in most other games it is the coomer fantasy and porn logic the ones that turn every single supposed "heterosexual" woman (that never gave any indication of being interested in other women) into a lesbian/bi out of nowhere just as an excuse to have voyeur lesbian scenes and it gets tiring seeing to same thing happen for the Nth time , thats why I rarely play the harem route when 1 on 1 routes are also available.
While it is true that women tend to be more hetero-flexible. That only means that they are open to experiment with it if the situation arises, like in a mff threesome or with their friends while young, something that males don't do. But, when it comes to actual romantic relationships they look for men if they are heterosexual, if anyone(man or woman) can be her lover then they are not hetero, they are bi. Not to mention that there are straight women who are just outright not interested in lesbianism at all and those seem to be as rare as a unicorn in AVNs.
Voyeurism being optional would be a good QoL addition. (y)

Sure, I agree with pretty much everything you've said here. I will also add that I do intend to have MC actually get to know people. I agree 100% with "But in most other games it is the coomer fantasy and porn logic the ones that turn every single supposed "heterosexual" woman (that never gave any indication of being interested in other women) into a lesbian/bi out of nowhere just as an excuse to have voyeur lesbian scenes and it gets tiring seeing to same thing happen for the Nth time" You have my word, everyone in the game has a story to them, that dictates their actions and interests. Suffice to say, I get a bit lost in the sauce when it comes to making characters xD. It's genuinely one of my favorite parts about developing this VN and I go out of my way to really give them a world of their own details.

So if a girl is/isn't interested in getting funky with one of the other girls, she will have her reasons, and they may/may not be readily known. They may be curious to start out, as Jade will be, or they may be alright with being in a relationship with one of the other girls, but might not necessarily be interested in doing anything intimate with the other girls. I won't name which characters (To preserve immersion in the story) but I do actually have a character that's planned to be kinda exclusive to MC (more or less). She's not going to get added for a while yet, but she's a really unique character. I think people will like her quite a bit.

Like I said, you have my word that the details are planned out meticulously and will be structured in a way that tries to make as much real-world logical sense as possible. (Minus the expanding assets and second reality slipping into ours n all that lmao)

Well, if you are asking specifically for MC to fuck my avatar, the answer is no xD. That being said, I do use my avatar a lot for offshoot animations and such. Stuff ranging from simple fuck scenes to condom-filling. The next one is planned to be a cumflation animation with a curvy cutie unrelated to the VN.

As for in the game itself, my avatar was originally only intended to make cameo appearances in a Stan Lee-esk fashion lol. Though with quite a bit of appreciation/support being shown for them, I'm probably going to involve them more them I originally planned to. More than likely they'd be a wingman for MC in some capacity. Still to be determined on all that though :p I'm open to suggestions/requests regarding my avatar, but I don't want to have them too involved in the main storyline. This is MC's story, not my avatar's story. :p

I have also considered doing some sort of "See the world through my eyes" experience regarding my avatar. Essentially an optional story event where MC gets to get taken along for a ride and live vicariously in my avatar's head as they run around town doing random shit. It'd be an interesting way to implement some futa on female scenes with girls unrelated to the primary group.

I'm not into the poly/harem relationships, and would prefer to just have one partner. Is that forced in this game? The comments make it seem like I have to be ok with being with more than one person and them all messing around with each other.

Yes, harem/poly is going to be a mandatory thing in this game. Considering the plans I have for the game, it would be impossible for me to set it up in a way that allows you to pick one of the many girls and focus on her exclusively. I wanted this to be a harem/poly game, thats what it's gonna be.

Apologies my guy, I wish you the best of luck in your search!

I don't remember having problems with other games. The Space-themed works fine, the new ones don't

Gotcha! So I think it's a video format issue. The space-themed animation is a .ogg file that I assembled together as I was learning animations early on. The new ones are .webm format.

I actually went with webm specifically hoping it would be more compatible with website hosting xD so there's a bit of irony for ya lmao.

I use WonderShare12 Filmora for my video editing now, which unfortunately doesn't have .ogg format as an export option. It does, however, have .avi which is one of the other video formats Ren'py handles. So I'll swap those vids over to .avi on the next update and hopefully, that should resolve the issue. If .avi doesn't resolve the issue, I'll ensure that I jump the extra hoop to have .ogg files for online players.

Stumbled upon this late last night prowling for some relaxed monster girl content and literally purred a full minute straight upon meeting Jade the very first time. :love: (You see, after having gotten a good chuckle out of the chad option of the poll and being somewhat intrigued by the tags, I decided to dive into the "Developer FAQ" first, which ultimately led to my downloading the game without taking in any further information like previews or the like…*shrug*) This is highly enjoyable; very well done!

It's more about browser support, really, specifically some of those (Why hello there, Chromium!) being very picky about pixel format: setting the latter to YUV 4:2:0 (like -pix_fmt yuv420p for ffmpeg, for instance) should do the trick. And do stick to VP9 – it's worth it. :geek:

it just me or is the developer an ass guy considering how nice an ass pretty much all the characters that have walked in front of us have had massive asses. I am not judging I personally aint an ass guy but I can appreciate them. I got to say I am liking both the main Orra and Jade thus far. If I recall right they are going to become 'bigger' and i personally can't wait to do that specially since Orra is big in the chest department

Glad to hear you enjoyed it! xD I love all of my characters dearly, but Jade was the first one I made :3 I'm the dev and I still get giddy seeing her lmao.

Also thank you so much for the information on container format :p It's a little bit over my head, but I'll toy around with some settings and see what I can work out!~
