They can do a game on her alone, oooooooh baby. Just put her in a young teen body and tiny tits and I'm a goner.

If you need a justification you can just assume that they all have an IUD. They're quite popular these days and once inserted will provide continual birth control for somewhere between 3-12 years depending on the specific type and brand used. No pills, no condoms, just totally non-visible birth control with no maintenance or anything. And, again, at present they're common enough that it wouldn't be completely unrealistic for an entire group of a dozen or so women to all be using them.
Or look to the source. There's no reason why our MC might not have had a vasectomy.

Or dude's just firing blanks. I can't imagine smeat is good for anyone's health.
The bigger question is: who's the hairdresser? Everyone keeps their hair cut and styled and no one's pubes look like a jungle after several months of growth.
I actually considered this. And I figured that, sure, some of them might be wearing one. But all 13? Kinda felt like pushing it a bit. But, eh, it's a plot that already hangs on a convenience after convenience, so whatever.
Considered this, too. But you guys should consider the narrative implications, as they're pretty damn squicky.
I mean, the girls need to somehow be aware of his condition, considering they're the ones who initiate all the sex. And... how did that happen? After all, it's probably not something a guy would just go around and advertise, would it? Did Jack simply drop it in casual conversation whenever he could while on the boat? "Here's your martini, miss. And in case you're interested in some unprotected sex, I'll have you know that I'm totally shootin' blanks."
And if one of the girls somehow found out, spreading that information to the entire group, especially without the guy's consent, would be a pretty freakin' scummy thing to do. And the devs are obviously trying to make the entire cast of characters, from the MC to the harem, be well-rounded and likeable. (Well, Karen's an exception.)
Yeah. Out of these two, I think I'll roll with the IUDs.
While the question was evidently tongue-in-cheek, the obvious answer is the storeroom stocking enough personal grooming implements for a small army.

The short answer is that both Chase and I have kids, and the idea of getting 10 other girls pregnant while stuck on a deserted island belong up there with "and then one day, the pack of rebid ferrets managed to break out" in terms of sexual fantasies.
I'm going to assume there's just a lot of pregnancy pills in the storage, and leave it at that.
I wasn't aware that pregnancy pills inhibit hair growth. Guess you learn something new every day.
And safety razors
Like, I'm sure there's a game you could make where everyone ended up starved, filthy, diseased, knocked up and looking like someone stuck out in the wilderness area after being on Bear Grylls, and discovering the entire team (and Bear) all died of dyssentry while you were surviving on human pee and raw salmon, and now you need to make your way back to human inhabited Alaska, but... this is not that game.
It seems safe to assume they are all using some kind of birth control. It would be quite useful in their line of work.
And nobody's asking it to be. Well, at least I'm not.
But, like I said earlier: The more you start hanging lampshades at stuff...
Honestly, we're not... this is just me chilling at the end of my day with a highball and having fun. In-game it's not mentioned at all, because it's not a direction we were ever looking to take the game.
It fits in Love of Magic, which does have pregnancy, and makes a relatively large thing out of it (and not just for the main LI); it doesn't really fit in Paradise Lust, because the characters interact in different ways. I suspect that, because we're both dads, we tend to view the right point in a relationship to have kids differently.
I get the vibe that we're getting our wires crossed here... So, let me making something explicit: I'm NOT asking you guys to implement pregnancy to the game. I've zero desire to see it. Zip, zilch, nada.
The reason I brought it up was simply because I couldn't help noticing you guys coming up with narrative justifications (no matter how flimsy) to a ton of other stuff you could have just ignored, so I naturally started wondering about how pregnancies are avoided. And, well, you gave us an answer - pregnancy pills in the resort storeroom. I'm cool with that.
The only thing I'd find even cooler is you actually somehow sneaking that explanation into the game itself. But if not, I ain't going to complain.
You said yourself it's the girls that are initiating the action so it's safe to assume they would do that on the safe days since pregnancy and childbirth on a deserted island with limited medical supplies could be dangerous for the baby and mother. They would already have to be concerned about tropical diseases and even minor wounds becoming infected in that sort of setting.

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter. Its a game. That alone is any justification needed or desired. It is a game with the focus being on comedy and playful sex with beautiful women. I mean, come on, what person hasn't fantasied about being trapped on a tropical paradise with several drop dead gorgeous models and they all genuinely want to jump your bones?
That's the fantasy, it doesn't need to know about the pesky details...like contraception, medical supplies or the like. There's adventure, a mystery to uncover and a giant ass lizard (who I think we all hope will eat the douches on the island), along with sexual shenanigans.
That's all we need to know.

Droid Productions any plans to investigate that memory leak/not releasing cached assets under Linux further? By comparison Love of Magic Book 1, Book 1 redux and Book 2 all ran quite well on my system. Not sure if any of them slowed down at all after a long, extended play session or not , but if it did it was rare.
With Paradise Lust I actually need to stop what I am doing to save and then quit the game as it starts filling swap up more and more.

Yeah, we've added some fixes already... we'll continue to swat memory leaks.Droid Productions any plans to investigate that memory leak/not releasing cached assets under Linux further?

LoM's just a much less demanding game; the backgrounds are all just single compressed images, and I never really cared about booting them out of memory. PL has big-ass PSB files, spines, etc... so we need to spend some time making sure the unloading happening properly.
Yes, it's all we need to know. And I'm not that guy who, say, watches a Disney cartoon about castaways and starts pointing out all the inconveniences the characters should be suffering.
I'm only questioning stuff to the level the work sets for itself. And this particular work actually attempts to provide a bunch of narrative handwaves to some of the issues it could ignore while upholding the fantasy. But since it doesn't, someone might start wondering about the issues not yet covered.
The dev actually answered my question rather quickly after I presented it. And to a satisfactory degree, I might add, since I was perfectly happy to drop the line after that. However, some other people appeared, two weeks after I dropped it, and decided to pick it up again... And here we are. Again.
Alright, alright, my bad. It's just that the presently ongoing conversation seems to be revolving around a question I presented, so I wanted to dispel any notion that I have a problem with it.
