Hey everyone!

Just answering few questions, don't mind me!

and is coockies second event a patreon only?

Probably a bug? What exactly do you see when you enter Rais Talk menu? Which version are you playing? Send me maybe a screenshot on dm's or discord.

I think that's because most other devs tend to update their games in larger chunks. Alex makes updates more frequently but they're fairly small.

Also, many patreons seem inactive but there's still a lot of activity on their discord servers

Yea, that's true. I could just change it up and update once per month but I'm trying to play to my strengths/weaknesses. This kind of short deadlines motivates me more to sit down after normal work and code/write/create renders as much as I can to prepare for the next Sunday. If I would have monthly updates I would probably feel less stressed/time-choked and I would give myself more days off during the week and code on weekends. So I figured, "Hey, let's try weekly. I will be more productive during the week and not only on weekends." Works (for me) so far! We will see how much I will be able to continue that cycle. So far 36 constant weekly updates and counting!

Does this game work on windows 7 (32bit-2GB RAM)?

It might have problems because Win7 is no longer supported and new drivers for engines are still being updated. It should, unfortunate I don't have the machine with Win7 to test it. Let me know if it worked! 2gb shouldn't be a problem.

Is there a way to replay scenes?

Sorry, not yet. But it will be added in the future (like bad ending but with choice "would you like to see cg or event?").

Android version?

Sorry, I will be getting into android build at much later date, near/after final release.

Hi, thanks for replying about the retro-active thing. But, concerning the core gameplay itself, perhaps you can take some inspiration from cook serve delicious? Like, 1,2,3,4 for the four positions of waiting outside and the tables? Then, press Q/W/E for the three waitresses, something like that? For the food, set some other customizable bindings? I think that'd be pretty cool.

Also, I feel that the drag-and-drop needs a little improvement on a few things;
a)Dragging and dropping is a repetitive movement that takes some precision, hitboxes might be a little small and you can't drag a waitress that's on standby- you need to click their token. If you're able to drag their model itself, it'll be an improvement.
b)When a CG pops up, the customer's patience will still continue dropping. This can prevent you from seeing an order as they time out.
c)The day can move a bit too slowly at times and too quickly at others. Please add a time-control option?
d)I seem to always see the same few mob types, I very rarely encounter female customers.
e)Currently, for me, the day-to-day gameplay is really quite uninteresting and it gets old pretty quickly.
Perhaps add a combo system? Like when you are able to chain orders together quickly without dropping patience, it would feel rewarding; getting a "Cool, Good, Great, SICK" kind of deal going?

It would feel more engaging, having to focus and remembering which table has what order and having an optimal order to deliver it in. Would be even cooler if you manage to implement keyboard controls like what I mention above. You don't necessarily have to remove drag and drop either, you can keep both control schemes!

I'd like to add that I love the direction you're going with this concept, swinging expressed in this form is really sweet and mature to me.

It's like, they're both adults and they get that they're just having some harmless fun once in a while but they ultimately still love each other - I quite enjoy it and it's a very rare sight. Usually, swinging is either really vanilla and boring or quite extreme in NTR. It's quite the breath of fresh air.

I really enjoy the game's concept so far and I look forward to it's growth. Cheers!

a) definetly something I will change/add (so you can drag maids from idle animations to clients at the whim. I will add if after I will change up the idle animations for maids for basic skin)
b) fixed, you can disable the cg in game or right click cg to quickly dispose of it
c) done, speeds added
d) luck of the draw? In the future there will be few more female clients.
e) actually your idea of combo system got me thinking about it. Something I will be looking into and probably testing soon. Thanks a lot for that proposition.
f) in the very early build (0.2.0) I did had maids control over 1,2,3 buttons so you could quickly get them to your mouse. Maybe something to comeback to? but i dont see how food/drinks would work here (qwertyui would be too confusing I think xd)

Thank you for kind words and suggestions, I really appreciate it!

Just redo the gameplay from scratch and copy tried and true methods for a cafe service type game, with unlocking recipes and cheap ingredients as the progression method.

Before the initial public release of 0.2.0 version I did think about crafting of items for the cafe (get coffee beans, get milk, get water to make a latte!). But, I'm not a fan of crafting. Never was. I loved leveling up in games but not crafting. After quick fiddling with it I just dropped it because I didn't like that. I do want to focus on other aspect of the gameplay.
There will be slight changes to the main gameplay that I had in plans for some time now. Please do check out the game after few months if you will be still interested, maybe then it will be something what you will enjoy. If not, still, thank you for checking out the game and letting me know what you think!

I hate finding good games on this site, it agonizes me to wait for their completion. I see the dev is here, Covid times hit me hard muh man but as soon as I get my life on tracks I'll be supporting you, keep up the good work!

I think your current rate is awesome. The reality is that your frequent updates aren't too far off from the amount of content some games get after waiting months. So the fact that you put out updates of that size as frequently as you do is very impressive and a big reason why I support you on Patreon.

Good game! i really enjoy the management stuff and skills for the girls, the events are also fun but clicking and dragging things for too much time make hands hurt and thats not cool devs should add hotkeys or make somehow easy to do that also the grind stuff is a litle bit too high. i'll give 8/10 because i really enjoy cynthia care/take out abilities i particularly doesn't like games with koikatsu models but this one is already special for me. I really hope devs don't give up!
Note: why cynthia doesn't have tan lines in summer clothes? why man

 

[AlexTorch]

Hey RareAlexDev, if the game have a harem path, why not put in the tags? There is a lot of people that look for this tag, also putting "ntr avoidable" too, since both of the groups here don't get along well. I will be honest, at first point, i was thinking "hey, is just a brothel/cafe game" and complete skipped this game (even if liked the art) but after reading all the coments, look like you can keep just a cafe without brothel.

 

[cleanfeel]

Hello, may I ask what is your creative direction in terms of the events in the game? I am getting mixed messages from the fan mail. Is this a game where there's going to be harem path / events as well as an NTR focus one?

Is it possible to disclose the direction of the content? I went back several pages and saw that you are looking to build out the technical aspects of the game before diving into the content, both h and non-h.

Personally I don't consider any of the girls who are not in relationship with MC blowing other dudes NTR... Maybe if there is programming to make them your "girlfriend" and she does. But even in games and manga where girls accept being in a harem like the soul-less ideal of a woman by Japanese men, I find them kinda unrealistic. The modern girl in America (where I am), the one you actually want to marry, will never consent to being a sidechick. There's a reason why being a sidechick is an insult... Starter girlfriend, Sunday girl, etc.

Just curious what you as a creator think about that, because imo NTR can get pretty complex and the interpretation is pretty broad, especially on this website. In other more NTR oriented discussions, there is a distinction of cuckoldry that you personally endorse and initiate and get hard on, and ones that you did not consent and borderline rapey / blackmailey.

 

[Fanorase]

This shit is fucking great, not gonna lie. Haven't lost myself to a porn game like this in a very long time (I didn't even notice it turn dark outside lmao). The managing shit just works so well imo lmao.

Only complaint was that the cafe critic minigames obstructed the view for the customers behind, but anything other than that literally nothing much.

Immediate patron for this good shit. (I'm a sucker for NTR, and Cynthia's was just great). Can't wait to see what else happens.

 

[Diablos]

Gallery show there is a scene with Cynthia/Jock how do you trigger it?

Why the NTR tag? This is just considered swinging, and theres already a tag for that on here

 

[trashhumper]

Because it contains Netorase, which is still technically NTR. But I know what you're saying. Usually when we see the NTR tag here, we assume Netorare. Here, swinging already implies Netorase.

 

[sevendustkorn1008]

Exactly. There's already a swinging tag, so having both a swinging tag and a NTR tag insinuates the game has Netorase and Netorare. That's going to lead to confusion. I thought we got passed that on this site already, lol.

 

[alcanii]

- added new Auto Stock Perk, that after the end of the day buys the amount of stock you've chosen.
Thats pretty nice but rather useless if u dont cheat money. If u could autostock up to a certain value instead of buying a fixed value of items it would be much more usefull and rly handy without going bankrupt if u want to keep your stock up high enough

RareAlexDev read this please

 

[Saint Peverell]

So what's the kind of NTR in this game?
