I think the scene you mention was another scene, later. The (supposedly) daydreaming scene is the one that happens at the end of Chapter 3, after the girls meet Chris and before Aoife trains MC to dance. It's about girls coming suddenly to his new apartment when he is about to sleep. It's not about inviting him etc.
Ah, gotcha. You're right, I was thinking of the choice after the boat party. My bad.

In that case, to answer the Aoife and Lyndie question (why they were later reluctant to "play together" after they'd already done this event) I always assumed that their reluctance later is due to the later events being interactive while in this scene they are both present but Aoife is just watching, doesn't even interact sexually with MC, let alone with Lyndie. Never struck me as incongruent.

Just to clear it up they aren't dreams. I never have or will use dreams to add sexy time to my games. The reason there isn't a morning after scene is because there's a fairly substantial time skip between the third and fourth chapter. As I'm remastering things I'll look into making those sequences more clear. Appreciate the feedback.
Thanks for clearing that up! I love this VN and it's amazing that it's completed. Very nice work, can't wait to finish it :)

Just finished it and I was blown away by how good the writing is in this game. Simply superb to say the least!
e.g. Sisyphean being mentioned in a porn game is something I never imagined to be possible.
The only things to be improved are the quality of background renders and the animation during sex. Other than that I loved the characterization and how the story evolves till the end. Definitely one of the best I have ever played. ;)

They didn't, but I've completely redone the entire first chapter so it most likely got taken care of.
Are you working on a remaster for this game now that it is complete? I thought you were working on your second game.

I've been doing both. While the next game is the priority I've also been working on a remaster when I have a few moments. I'm not doing the whole game again, but it was important for me to redo the first release because I did it with a whopping two weeks of daz experience and I wanted to bring everything to a slightly more consistent level. I also made some character model changes late game that I need to fix in earlier renders to maintain consistency.

But again that's a side project, just something I do when I have a few spare minutes, probably won't put that remaster out until Autumn.

Finally I got the ending I was missing, the one with Kimberly. I had been struggling trying to get it for a while. Today, after several days playing other games instead, I have tried it once more, but this time I have succeeded.

To any of you who may be having a hard time trying to get the ending with Kimberly, eventually I discovered what mandatory step I was missing that unlocks her path. Do not accept Aoife's proposal to be her date for the party on her mom's yacht. Instead tell her that you need to think about it and go to the aforementioned party together with Kim and Chris.

This game is really good. I love the characters, they're very well written, and I felt like I really got to know them by the end.
I can't quite pin down why, but I also quite like the fact that we can't see the MC's face until the ending. Feels symbolic.

O and obviously, Lyndie best girl

MC throws a hissy fit to Christine but still lives in her house? What a wimp. Also lol at MC reacting like an anime character to most new information with monologues and whatnot.

I do have 1 point of critisism I want to express:

The chekhov's gun called Marie.
At several points, the game strongly hints at the MC's ex showing up and causing drama. We even see her face in a dream sequence.
But then... nothing. Goes completely unresolved.

But in a way it's a compliment to the writing if there's 1 minor thing that really stands out.

Apparently there was a poll to choose between her and Dru.

needless to say who won

I can't even imagine how they were going to fit her into the group in a way that wouldn't feel extremely jarring. It would be utterly out of place with the rest of the game.
as was done with Christine: at first the enemy, the one who had done God knows what, and then one of the group

there would be a rapprochement, an apology, her faults would be reduced, she would have the chance to be appreciated by someone in the group and the story would go on the same way.
