i like the idea. but the games are just too tedious. i dont wanna spend 40 minutes putting together furniture. its immersive, but its a lil too much. offer a skip mode, it will solve alot of the issues
Turn fullscreen on.. I nearly wasted a mouse until I tried it as last option and after all I could click on "FUCKING SHIT!!!" in the lamp scene...

I honestly thought that this game was dead =D but I've last played it back in 2021 so it was a nice expirience for me to remeber all this interesting click based quests with random expected result =D
It's the most realistic visual novel I've ever played. It turns almost all current vns into a joke. Some want to skip the minigames. Let's see, doing your daily work (sorting correspondence) can't be avoided with a "skip". Such is life. I was disappointed that such a large company where the protagonist works did not already have Windows 3.1 for workgroups. Sometimes in your work you find things like that.
Worst of all, it's an abandoned game. The best I've seen to date
PS: I suffered a little with the PC, I haven't used one like that in at least 31 years. The MS-DOS manual... honestly, chapeau!!

Appears to be just a bug fix but I do love this game, I like that this is sim versus the day cycle room clicker stuff of other games. Just wish the guy updated more.

The lewd scenes and the build up to them are worth it. One of the best I've seen.
That said, he should have added an option to skip these minigames or atleast an easy mode to be able to finish them quicker. It scared potential supporters away.
When it came out, this was my favourite game... well in the list but after the update I kinda gave up 'cause that find the spot crap was too annoying but gonna see how he left it at the end.
thank you for this, ran away screaming halfway through wallpapering and I completed the first couple of updates the first time through.

I guess no one noticed or wrote about it, but the game takes place in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. If you search for Annette n Shelby Park on maps, it will take you to the correct place where the game takes place.
Thanks for the info.
I really love this game and also support the dev a little bit in patron. But unlucky that he decided to stop developing.

Dude, the game hasn't been abandoned, it's still being developed.Thanks for the info.

It just doesn't get the value it deserves, it doesn't get enough support.
it would have been great if they would have share the assets of the females but now this game will never get finished

Had you ever do programming ? Maybe the gameplay is bad, but the programming is quite good !
No the programming is awful. Maybe a first year student might find it good. It can't even handle the base cases for most functions let alone any edge cases which is why the ikea bs bugs out and needs restarting why theres no autosave, why theres no basic mouse functionality for the idiotic minigames nor highlighting. Thats's why you can accidentally click home without any prompt during crappy minigames and lose all progress and have the mouse set invisible. That's why when loading in fullscreen it will randomly go to a small window with the buttons offering to minimize since it thinks it's still fullscreen. It's beyond amateur. The only people who would call this good are the sort of people who expect me to do their entire job when they ask a question on stack overflow.

But like Sir Anal said, you're conflating programming with game design. Those aren't the same thing.
Programming Issues
- Have the mouse set invisible — I haven't seen this once, but if it's suddenly disappearing like you describe, that would definitely be caused by a bug in the code.
- Full screen mode randomly switching while loading to a small window while thinking it's still full screen — Another bug, but another one that I haven't seen once. The game never starts in full screen mode for me, but I haven't seen the switching / dropping out bug myself at all. It sounds like a driver issue, especially because I don't see anyone else in this thread mentioning a bug like this at all. But it could be an issue with the programming, so I'll give you that one.
- Ikea bugs out — Obviously, if this is actually bugging out, that could be a programming issue. But again, never seen that happen, so it doesn't sound like a flaw in the game's code.
- No autosave — That is a developer choice. Games don't always have autosave functions programmed into them, but that's not bad programming but bad game design. Compare a variety of games on Steam, for instance: some games have autosaves only, some have both autosaves and manual saves, and some only have manual saves. It's something a programmer has to specify, which makes it game design (i.e., a choice about what's available in the game).
- No basic mouse functionality — Another choice by the developer. While there will typically be some built in, generally most gaming engines don't have clearly defined actions tied to keyboard keys, mouse buttons, etc. Those usually have to be assigned by the game developer; Ren'Py (which this is not, ofc) is an exception to that rule.
- No highlighting — This is definitely a game design issue. Again, in most gaming engines, there is no automatic highlighting for an on-hover event. On-hover will be detected, but the results of that detection must be specified by the game developer. That's not a flaw in programming, but an oversight or choice by the developer (i.e., game design).
- No prompt to avoid losing progress when returning to the main title screen — Another choice by the developer. A programming issue would be if Nerdworks tried to have the game warn but an error resulted (or the method was never called). This seems pretty clearly a choice / oversight by the developer instead in designing the user experience during the game.
