I tried to send you DM with ideas but i keep getting error message.

I will look through the forum, to see if there is any restriction to send private messages and get back to you.
Feel free to share your thoughts right here! It’ll be great to discuss them with everyone else too!

Ok, so my guess is that the lawyer and ASA are connected somehow and work against MC so maybe add some twists and mystery to the story?
As far as i figured MC is smart and wealthy but his personality is a bit weak.. I feel he should be more manly

Also to expand MC ability beyond just chatting, you could expand phone usage of MC... Here are some ideas;


1. Ability to access online shops (To buy gifts, naughty toys, clothes,..)

2. Ability to access dark web and hire some private investigator or such to check on his family, asa, lawyer.. (That way you get perspective/photos from the other side, beyond just current characters)

3. Ability to buy some hacking mobile apps (hack phones, computers, cameras,..)

4. Personal visits to prison (sending pics wife-MC to daughter and vice-versa) Daughter friend visit MC at prison (They record/photo themselves)


All this would expand freedom and playability a lot imo. Anyway this is just what came to my mind
This game has such potential and i would really like to see it succeed, as well as you... Seeing that you care dearly to improve your game.

Sorry for the wall of text and I hope my ideas help you somehow

Ok now that I shared the possible ways of how to improve the game mechanism-wise, this time around I want to discuss the progression of the story

I replayed the game 3 times and I have to say certain elements feel fast-forward than they actually should be.

The best example is with the wife ...to me personally if feels so fast-moving starting with her saying "I couldn't sleep the whole night thinking about you" portraying a caring/worried/supportive wife to immediately change and become someone who isn't shy of over sexualizing herself, tricking the mc into accepting her...flirting with her college crush

Especially when before that we have (as Mr player) choices that either would encourage her into this flirty route with her college dude who had a crush on her or be completely against it and do it only as the last results

An example of that would be when the lawyer suggested the wife talk with DA for the first time and especially about the second meeting

The player got to choose between "ok I'll allow the second meeting but no fitting" and "ok sure... I have no other choice" w/o any complaints or setting boundaries bout the flirting situation

Therefore I believe that the scene of the wife trying to trick the MC into accepting her going in that dress shouldn't be happening....at the very least delayed depending on the player's previous choices ...

If the latter is an option..it can create a more realistic scenario, it would be a better way of dragging the story and creating more "secretive meetings" as an excuse for a slow change

We all know what the endpoint would be like, it just going to be appreciated more by the players if they feel they reached that state naturally rather than being enforced/rushed into it

So in a nutshell what I'm suggesting is to have a locked base choice system

So if u were against the idea of meeting up with her crush and more so again the idea of her flirting the moment the wife asked "So can I go with this dress" there should be a choice that would lock that scene from happening, evidently delaying the inevitable at best....On the other hand, if u were pro-flirting and her reaching out to him there should be a choice where you would accept her proposition

Not only this would help with all the branches you are setting up in your game but also helps progress the story more smoothly and any changes can just be explained by "Oh we had a back-and-forth text msgs or we had secretive meetings" .....etc

The art style is cool and fits the game well! And the story is interesting imo. It’s already a solid game, and I’m excited to see how it develops! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the share :)

My experience with this game:
Open it up, the bottom part is not visible and there is no button for fullscreen or "maximize window" square at least. Go into setting change resolution to smallest available hoping I can see it fully. Still bottom part is cut off. Then I realize I am stuck in settings with no way going back to main screen (button for that is probably at the bottom that is cut off).

I have played other Unity engine games with "phone theme" and it was playable. This one isn't for me. Just letting you know I am probably on the minority with such issues, but yeah can't check out the game like this. If I am just being stupid please let me know.

Hey, Lord Bradley! Thanks for bringing up this issue!

You're not dumb - if anything, I'm probably the dumb one for not including a smaller resolution. I’ve already fixed this for the next release, which should be out today or tomorrow.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and I really hope you’ll give the game another shot once the update is live!

Hello, Mr. redoubt27

I have thoroughly reviewed the materials you provided and want to state that your accusations against my client (the Wife) are completely unfounded! She is a loving mother and devoted wife, as well as a respected member of the community, who has never been implicated in anything of the sort that you are accusing her of. :LOL::LOL::LOL:

Additionally, my client (the Player) trusts his wife implicitly!

Best regards,
Sam Goodwin, Lawyer
Why does your product load the GPU by as much as 40% when the window is active?

I would like some comments on this...

Hey, thanks for reaching out about this!

Would you mind answering a couple of questions? What's your operating system, and what processor and GPU do you have? And have you noticed similar GPU usage in other Unity projects? That info would help a lot in understanding the situation.

As for optimization, I haven’t tackled it yet since this is just the first version... but I’ll definitely add it to the development plan. Thanks for bringing it up!

Win 10 Pro, i5-10400f, 3060, cyberpunk 2077 loads the GPU in this ratio when idle. In your game you don’t even need to render frames. Therefore, such a load looks at least suspicious...

I'd say it looks like poor optimization, nothing suspicious about that.. Bare in mind this is a demo release of a porn game, if it had flawless optimization now THAT would be suspicious.

Looks like I understand your situation! I’d suggest trying to reduce the game window size. I made a tutorial slide just for you on how to do it! Please let me know how it works!

Why that resolution is not set by default? A window bottom hidden behind the task bar is a questionable design choice to get a good first impression.

It's an interesting game, one that relies solely on it's writing. If you want to play this because of the art... just don't. It's generic cookie cutter AI art. It's an interesting game but not reall my thing. Will come back once it's a bit further ahead.

Hey, I’m glad to hear you find my game interesting - hearing that really means a lot! I created over ~10,000 images to end up with the ~60 that made it into the release, so it's a bit more complex than it might seem. And as for the Patreon support you mentioned, I hope it helps me make this game one of the best in the genre - or at least I’m aiming for that! It’d be awesome if you continue giving me feedback along the way! ;)

Took me 20 minutes to clear the content.
I have to say, overall I like the build. The menu is clean, the art is beautiful (For AI at least) and the story is very interesting.
Your gameplay loop is smooth and everything is in place.
Respect for more or less keeping the characters the same. Usually AI characters look slightly different in each image. I think it would have been WAY smarter to at least partly work with sprite art instead of generating an endless amount of images... but your decision. I guess the last route is easier but way more time consuming.
Not sure if the game decisions matter, I didn't see anything huge changing... just a minor change in the reponse.
I am honestly a bit turned off because this game already feels like a freemium game from the app store with commercials popping up everywhere (1 out of 2 routes is locked beyond a paywall ( Bella's friend/Bella route). Usually games deliver some content first and then ask for support. It seems you do the opposite which is your choice and we have to accept it, and truth be told seems to be working with the insane amount of support you already got. Just be aware there are numerous NTR games with a similar idea and gameplay loop around that have around 10 to 20 times as much content as your version currently has and are available for free.

I'd honestly prefer it if we at least get a version with some content, that at least has a good amount of sex scenes before being so agressively asked to support the game.

Overall great game, with a lot of potential but a tiny amount of content, not enough to back up the long dialogue and backstory. Overall this feels like a huge waste of time because you get somewhat invested in the story only for it to end without any real payoff. It's very interesting and I'll play the next version as well. Too early to write a full review.

Just tried out the new version and i have to say, I love skip function but as of story idk...

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Either way corruption should take longer time for both playstyles "CHEATING or CUCK".

I think you don't need to rush with adding sex scenes that involve main characters, if you add different kind of sexual scenes;

1. MC watching porn on phone
2. Daughters friend sending naughty pics
3. Unknown numbers sending provoking pics/vids
4. Best friend/friend sending stuff

Another option to progress with main character development more naturally is that you could use some way to skip days/weeks;

1. Husband being frustrated and doing something bad, so they put him in a solitary cell for a week
2. Husband is transferred to different prison
3. Guards take away MC's phone (A lot could happen with wife/daughter without MC guiding them)

AI generation of images can be really a bitch... But if u generate 10.000 images, you could easily make more content per release to attract even more people to your game. :cool:

Anyway it's your game and your choice on how to do thing about anything, everything I wrote is just my honest opinion.
As always looking forward for next release ;)



P.S. If you need help with in-game music, I can maybe cook something for you since I use DAW to create music. For free ofc ;):D

Hi! Yes, you can change your name by tapping on "Player" in the contacts screen in the messenger! I'll make this option more obvious in a future update! I've attached a screenshot to make it easier to understand!
