Usually the creators chicken out when it comes to really dark paths. Which is sad, it's fantasy only.

Dark paths only work in games made for them. In Radiant it just makes the MC a shizo.
He would never be that top photographer with Bernie at his side if he acted like he does on that path.
I consider the dark path to be non-canon, only existing for the few very "special people" that think rape and abuse is totally cool and awesome.

I am very curious how many people looked in this direction at all. Perhaps continuing the dark path is only a waste of time and processing power.

I mean it's definitely not for me. I find no joy in being a sadist that gets off on rape and abuse.
And I think most people don't either.

It's probably only a very small selection of people, but I'd probably be willing to bet they're on some more of his expensive sub tiers on SS. It's usually the only way they can get that kind of content in their games.

So excuse my lack of tech knowledge but what is the difference between the rpa and apk for Android? This game gets mentioned a lot in the DDL thread as a clone so I want to check it out.

An apk is the file you need if you want to install a game on Android. A rpa is just an archive like a zip or rar.

Thank You but let me ask you this. The apk looks like it's just a update download. Do you know where access to the entire game is?

I assume you're talking about those. TBH I'm not sure how you install those correctly. Normally you only need the apk file to install games on android. Here it seems you need all those files.

My assumption is that you install the apk and then put the rpa files in some folder that the apk created.
Where that folder is, that I don't know.

There is a proverb that says “he who embraces much embraces little” means that it is better to focus on a few things and do them well, instead of dispersing trying to embrace everything and end up not achieving satisfactory results.

Maybe if you focused on the 3 sisters it wouldn't take forever for updates.

Well, after much thought I concluded that if I were SirD I'd probably... spend my days arguing on twitter.

Jokes aside, I agree. One of my best friends writes too, and he always reminds me of that proverb when I ask for advice. It'd be better if the game knew what made it appealing from the beginning and focused on that (obviously, it's not Brooke).

What I'm thinking about is this:
3 girls who lose their mother and come to you and you gain full custody of them, you didn't know they existed. You're not guilty of anything in the story regarding having abandoned them or anything. They need you, they have nowhere else to go.
I would also like to copy the personalities, the redhead with a body problem, the dumb and affectionate blonde, the angry and quarrelsome brunette.
What I would change would be to focus much more on the girls, on their development and a bit of the beginning, maybe not an accident, but a father who intervenes and takes his daughter away...
The development would be different, etc. Would there be other women? Yes! But much less, I think at most two or three more, depending on the story, and sex would take a while to happen, so that when it did happen it would be sensational.
I think what I love about this story is something I've never seen in such depth, you can make her feel guilty for touch her! you can make her feel guilty for having small boobs! Man, it's a game that explores the feeling of guilt, innocence, the lack of a place where a woman can go. I've never seen a game that did that, you know?

You can break all their self-confidence by telling them they're not that pretty, crazy, imagine a teenager totally in love with her father hearing that, I felt her pain when she cried, it was sensational. Yeah, I'm kind of a sadist and this game broke me to the point that I decided to become a subscriber.

Anyway, I wouldn't make a copy, but I would make a story that is inspired, mainly by the family format and sadism.
I'm thinking of several interesting dynamics, I'm so in love with this story that I want to write my own.

What do you think about this?

This is giving Yandere Simulator and Love Letter vibes.
Jk. If you really want to, then you obviously can. My advice is that you just have to make it yours. Maybe the blonde doesn't have to be dumb, or the redhead isn't insecure.
Try to think why your story is the way it is, and understand it to make it better, removing stuff that doesn't work and focusing on what does. This works even for simple stories, if you don't know what you're doing and just take inspiration, it'll feel like a knockoff.

So I was able to find a apk on work upload and I have to say so far the game is pretty good. Thanks for the help.

People like dark path, and subs even more i guess, is one of the appeals of this game like it or not.

I wouldn't say it being in last place, and behind lust by more than a little, means it's popular. Just that there's a small (23% according to those roles) group that enjoys it. It's even behind the pure path a bit, which from what I remember is the path with the least sexual content atm.
