Renders don't take long at all, just a few minutes.... Unless you have light, then it takes for-ever! LOL
The issue is; that it does all of the maths involved for how light will affect and reflect on each object in the "frame", so it has to figure how the shadows and shading will look at a given light level, and based on the light source location and intensity. I remember renders taking 2 and 3 days on a few of the maps I made for Quake. They weren't terribly large, just 5 man PvP maps, about as large as a pitch or football field.

It's the second time that I try this game, because I think it has potential.
I got a bad experience both the times, it has too many bugs and the flow of the game needs to be polished.

One or two months ago was Sarah being in multiple places at once, this time I probably got in some sort of limbo where no matter how many days passes or stats I change, nothing happens. I got the maid costume for nothing, I went for the heasmaster scene cause I like the ntr kink and, aside from the fact that the scenes seems to be always the same despite the change in lust or confidence (bad sign), one time Sarah lost a lot of stats the other she didn't. Then I don't pay the rent two times in a row to see what happens and there's no scene. At that point I wasn't motivated enough to restart. Like I said: pretty good potential but you need to polish and enrich what you have right now or people won't grow attached to it.

Hope the feedback will help you, bye

Thanks for the feedback. In 0.10 I'm replacing the current stat system and focusing on filling gaps, this means scenes for things like missing rent.

Although it can be tedious, your other option is to wait, by clicking on the clock, from 08:30 - 16:00(4pm), which is way more boring and tedious imho, plus if you work daily, by the end of week 2(I think) you have more money than you need in the current game.

I'm not really sure why this game has such a focus on time management in the first place? You're not doing anything that requires time management. For example, there is only one girl and there is generally always one optimal option.

This game would work much better if it was done as a series of linear scenes with the player able to select choices that branch the story in diffrent ways.

My advice is to either just remove the entire management sim elements entirely, or to add meaningful purpose to them.

I'm moving to a time-slot system in 0.10. The day will be split into dawn, morning, midday, early afternoon, afternoon, evening, and night. Some will be quicker than others but you'll be mainly interacting with Sarah during the afternoon and evening slots, with the others being either brief interactions, time for work, or more specific interactions such as watching a film with her.

Submission and Obedience are no longer stats. You access the submission and obedience content by first playing through the servant path.

Use the diary to guide you. Ask Sarah questions and buy her relevant gifts.

Here's my crunched version.

Lossy compression (means image/audio/video quality is reduced to make shit smaller) is used. You've been warned so no bitching.

OK so I tired this game upon the last update and besides a few things I basically couldn't trigger anything. Days passed in the game and nothing happened no matter what choices I made.

Maybe just me but I'm hesitant to try this new version unless I know I can trigger some of the events.
