So it seems many, many pages back, the dev talked about adding a strip game thing to this... and it was dice based? And in the changelog it mentions a "Dice" was added, but from looking at that unofficial walkthrough a few pages back, there was no mention of it.

Is this some unimplemented content, or just not in the 'free' version?

The Dice game is a random event(you must have the dice obviously). It's not in the unofficial walkthrough since when I wrote it, I hadn't had it occur, and I didn't want to 'cheat'(warp/jump command) to get it to happen. And the images posted a few pages back are from/for the next "public" release(V.8 iirc).

Can you give me an hints on how to trigger it? I don't see the Dice as something you can even buy, so I figure its acquired some other way.

The dice game was implemented in either 0.06 or 0.07, so it's definitely in the version on here. It's available on the fuck-buddy path at around diary entry 7, and you play and get one of two scenes, depending on if you win or lose. Unfortunately, I had some issues in the coding and so it's just look based now. I've yet to remedy this as it's not top of my priorities but I'm making large-scale changes in the next version so I hope it will be better then.

@lagaard I haven't had time to play this release yet... But the Dice used to be at the store, iirc the dice game was something like homeDiceLounge or homeLoungeDice?? anyway you just do a jump to the label in the console.

You have to progress to diary entry 8 in the fuck-buddy path. Then you can purchase the dice. Next raise Sarah's happiness and confidence above 50 and her lust above 80, this will allow you to choose 'Play a Game' when Sarah is watching TV. Win and you get one scene, lose and you get the other.

Walkthrough..???
Welcome to the forums... A few hints and tips
Read at least the last few pages of a thread before posting.
Search a Thread before posting a question.
At the top right side of the page is a search box
Enter: walkthrough
Select Search this thread only (Do not select any other option!)
Click Search
read the results of search and look for the one that has a file attachment, or say's something here it is...

The short answer is yes, there is one, just a few pages back.

Damnit, I completely forgot to watch this thread, and lo and behold, I missed like 20 pages.
From reading the last 2, I assume now is a good time to wait for 0.8 public?

Does...anyone else in the town buy cupcakes?
Nope. For each customer I need 4 images and they take 12+ hours each to render, so 48 hours in total. I can't really justify allocating that much render time to adding a new customer. For example, an entire scene with 7 images and an animation usually takes around the same amount of time.

0.10 (0.09 will be skipped) is where the large-scale changes are coming. 0.08 is 0.07 with an extra 2 pet scenes and a new interaction with 3 scenes. There aren't really any changes to the core gameplay.

The point of this mini-game is to grind for money, right? So "customer interactions" are not that important.

The "customer" could just be a faceless crowd lining up to order. Reactions could be simplified to text only.

After grinding for money for a while, I just want the whole process to happen faster. No complex render necessary.

That's just my opinion. Otherwise, I think you've got a great game here.

LOL I am just teasing a bit-I am just proud I have made zero mistakes in the cupcake game for several days, and was just hoping Winter would take notice and test me herself :D

I'm going to add a skip option. You probably have to complete it perfectly 3-5 times to unlock it.
