In Mr Vargas i can trust. Good luck with your game ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
You using V0.1.2? Please check that version changelog.My game crash every time after I save, just a little inconvenience on my part but all good.
Thank you! ❤️Just got that sad news...condolences. I'll be certain to support you folks going forward. Regards.
The game runs fine using an old and cheap 2014 laptop I have around.I'm not seeing any issue at all, the engine shouldn't be an issue unless trying to run it from a potato. Here's some quick figures from an i7-10875 5.1Ghz w/ 8GB RAM and an RTX2080 8GB: at main menu 7% CPU, 128MB Memory, 19% GPU running full screen at 3840x2160.
I want the game to be translated, and that's why most of the game's strings are stored in separated JSON files.Guys for now the plot looks interesting I just want to ask you one thing give support for someone to translate it into Spanish surely they would do it for free without asking anything in return, I played it in its original language but I would like more Spanish-speaking people can play and why not to support it on patreon a greeting
Thank you for the amazing feedback! ❤️After playing the game I have to say .. I am stunned by just how good it is. Have to admit I was sceptical at first - the art looked less realistic and the story sounded a bit bland, but it works incredibly well.
The music is pleasant, the engine feels smooth, Hank and Linus are both super fun, MC's special circumstance is an interesting mix-up, I like the cross-over with DH (e.g. figurines), and the girls.. Emily looks stunning, but the cold and career-driven types are not my thing. Victoria is both gorgeous and fun (thank you for listening to the feedback around her hair), and who can say no to a shy redhead like Maggie? However, Haley absolutely stole the show for me. New waifu!
Small feedback if anyone wants one:
1) It would be great if pressing "H" could show a hidden GUI (at the moment it just hides it) and/or if a right mouse click could do both (showing the main menu is a less frequent action).
2) I like that you have added blinking however I would experiment with slightly lowering its frequency and speed to make it a bit more natural.
3) While I really like how the girls look, I would work a little bit more to make it more consistent. Some of the characters look a bit off when they smile or look concerned (i.e. Leah mainly, Haley a little bit).
4) Hope you will consider adding proper (i.e. part of the main story) options to have brief "encounters" with all / some of the side girls. Would not want to date Alexis, but would not mind having an option to get closer to her for one evening.
5) Very pleased that the game will be on the lighter side. Drama in a form of working together to overcome an obstacle, deepening the bond while at it, is much more enjoyable than girls being hot / cold, 3rd party interfering etc.
Overall, an amazing effort - I did not think you could top-up Lily / Johanna, but you did it with Haley! The photo with her sticking her tongue out made her feel .. not attractive, but in the game she is composed, mature, funny, and looks gorgeous. Fingers crossed she will stay that way and turns out to be a bit like Lily (i.e. quirky but in a cute way, inexperience in the relationship department, fun to be around). The story is much more interesting when compared to first episodes of DFD and DH, which I did expect to be the case.
On a "completely" unrelated note... How is the development going? Is the team feeling good about the game? What's the release schedule looking like?You must be registered to see the links

It's going well, we're still hard at work on everything for the second release. For now, we hope to release every 6/8 weeks which will give us more time to put more into each instalment, so hopefully sometime in May for the next release.
