Oh, noooze!!! ... It's looking like no full harem! Okay, BMK, I guess it's your game and you can do what you want. I guess I'll just have to console myself eventually with replayability... :cry:

I mean there's commonality and there's inspiration but this is just clearly... idk but on my end it's kind of cringy

StudioBMK, God, these girls are so hot!! Love them all, especially Ember. I wish her hair was a deeper red though. Any chance of getting some girls from the Itty Bitty Titty Committee into your story? Those poor girls must have a weak union representation because they hardly ever get any work. They are probably doing extra work delivering for Walmart and GrubHub and Uber, just to pay their bills.
I had another idea, how about Ember runs into her boyfriend's dad, brother or uncle, say at her job and things get hot and heavy quickly? Would be kind of cool, right?
Another idea. One of those babes from the IBTC, actually has a dick!! (Femboy)
As usual, just food for thought.
Thank you!

About the rest. Hana has the smallest cup size in the game, nothing smaller. And I'm creating a game to my personal liking and hopefully others will like that too. There's an abundance of harem and NTR games out there, not this one. I'm going for a more realistic game, at least from my perspective. So no harem, NTR, cuckold or femboy.

OK, it looks better...

...but still does not please my sense of organization. Also, no way dude did that in a few hours. Completely different racks, which would have required taking down all the servers, switches, routers, etc., which would have caused a real shitstorm if done during normal work hours.
Hey man, I fully agree. This is completely due to the lack of skill on my side. I had to be creative with the before and after, I couldn't get a really good before and after with the same picture. Hopefully in the near future I will improve and I will go back and change that image (y)

Good or clean cable management isn't always the easiest to maintain if stuff changes frequently, talking from experience :)
But yeah, no way to do that in a few hours... Except this is completly new infrastructure which will replace the old one and all components were already there. But even then you would need at least two people most of the time. Try to balance a 20-30 kg router/switch or a >40 kg server with one hand while putting the screws in is something for a challenge TV show lol (except if you have a drawer system).

There's a little to say for both. IMHO there are physical differences (body type, breast size, freckles) and certainly personality differences.

I'm in good contact with the Mila AI dev and we are using a completely different AI model. But they might be somewhat trained on similar data - and the standard AI girl is always beautiful. So some similarities are to be expected I guess, especially in a more niche area such as a green eyed ginger. It's certainly not intentional.

If that is the most unrealistic part of my game, I'll take it ;)

For those NOT on the Ember path (probably no one), I've just uploaded a small patch on the first page. You can download it as well.

I made a little mistake in Day 4 when choosing your relationship with Ember. When you chose 'Friends', instead of 'Exclusive' or 'Open', the variable wasn't set correctly.

That means the different dialogues where Ember is just your friend don't work correctly in the rest of day 4 and in day 5.

To fix this:
* Put the Chapter2_day4.rpy file in your Secrets in Focus game folder and replace the existing file
* Load a save from before your relationship choice with Ember in Day 4

Chapter 3 - Day 6 will have the fixed version.

And another question in the meantime. Now that we're moving towards NSFW territory, where do we stand on pubic hair? I'm probably older than most players, so I'm pro for a nice trim. But I might be out of touch.

Are you team:
  • Bald
  • Trimmed
  • Jungle

Honestly, I grow tired of all the baldness. It just seems unnatural to me. I'm older as well and expect something to exist at least some of the time. I like to see Jungle and trimmed once in a while (as long as it isn't just a little strip). Since it is a focal point anyway it would give the characters a little individuality beyond just breast size.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing works. I am stuck at What's your name.
