Well, it's nice to see devs asking for feedback. Well, here's mine!

Just played the game. Art is nice and different from other games. Always a thumbs up in my view.
I particularly like Tammara and Hera. I'm used to long-haired nymphs, so Rissa didn't cater much to me. Lei (the pottery girl), Mamra (the evil nymph), and the fat garden lady (she's interactable, so I guess she'll be bangable in the future as well) were the least attractive ones to me. Mist Fortune is a bitch (friendzoned her traveling companion as if he was nothing and minutes later banged the MC!) and I hope she meets a terrible fate.
I hope Daddy Shark gets some more screentime. He has the potential to be a great sidekick as Liam from Acting Lessons is.

Storyline is interesting, but I didn't understand a thing about the green girl you fuck when putting a green gem on the statue. Seems similar to the Gaia girl from Steamy Paradise. I'm intrigued at the succubus Mamra sends to leech you - she asks to be saved?!
I like the Polynesian vibe, although it seems to me the game happens in modern times? The MC keeps breaking the 4th wall with stuff from today, but he lives in a place without internet, electricity, or tourists. I guess the dialogue could try to meet the story timeline (1700s-1800s?) to avoid breaking the immersion. Heck, the MC even says 'Jesus' when fucking Tammara, but nowhere in the game a Christian motif is shown - on the contrary, they have a statue of a goddess right there...
The game doesn't really explain what kept MC and Lei from dissolving in the lava. The knife has magic, but it would need a really strong one for that. IIRC, they made the knife with the crystalline metal found in the cave, right?

I liked the hint system - it's direct to the point and not cryptic at all. I only took more time trying to understand what I had to do with Lei questline, but in the end I managed to advance.

This is a great piece of art!

Animations... hit and miss. Not the best ones I've seen, but also not the worst. They're pretty simple - could get more frames (including changing facial expressions) and moving body parts. Oh, the Rissa standing scene is missing from the gallery.
The music is always the same. The lewd moments could certainly be improved with appropriate music.
I felt bad at hitting the rats in the cave. They cried! lol
The rock minigame when you train with Daddy Shark is exactly the same as the rat one... I'd suggest making it different.
You learn to fish, but don't use that knowledge anywhere in the game. Hope it'll be important in the future.

All in all, a game with potential. I'll wait for Chapter 2!

---

There's a bug: Hera keeps repeating a 'good night' text interaction every time you talk to her - even when there's new stuff for her to say.
Another one: the succubus' scene in the gallery goes to Lei's butt over the cave instead.
Thanks for this, slight correction though: It's Kissa and Marma :p

We'll factor this in!

Can anyone share a save at the 0.4.2 content end near the volcano scene(? iirc). no offence, the game is great and fun to play through, but kinda long for me to redo

Pie in the sky - patreon code to unlock scene animation? anyone have it.
It's up on our patreon if you'd consider supporting us. (Only $1 for that code)

Also, ruby ($5) has a new poll up for a bespoke scene before our next chapter.

Loading an old save either gives a bug screen or tosses me out on the main menu screen. Hahaha, nope.

Are the patreon code include in the game file? If not would you kindly share the code here consider you make it public now?
The ruby edition has an extra scene for ruby supporters, hence the name. The public build mainly includes bug fixes and additional script improvements and other features for all patreons. I honestly would share the code if we were absolutely rich from patreon, but we're not sadly.

I know it's hard decision to share the game as the dev, but what's the point of uploading patreon edition without code?

It's like torturing with carrot..

I'm just saying haha..
