So, in next release we need to start a new game again :whistle:

I'm already said about some of this but I will say again to give my feedback.

These aren’t the only tags to avoid in your game.

For example, Hazel—she's a sex addict who asks every guy to sleep with her. The player can't avoid her, which is really bad.

Then there's Freya, the prostitute. I don't even know why she's there, with that "stand" on her body.

And Sadie (I think her role is femdom)—she's having fun with another guy in the basement. At least this scene has an option to avoid it.

Lastly, Eddie asks the MC to steal Andrea's panties for him. Seriously... sometimes I really don’t like his humor :(.

Please tell me these girls aren’t main characters, or even side characters—they’re just background NPCs. If they are actually important, then this is really messed up :rolleyes:.

This kind of content makes me want to ignore the game. I thought the story was getting interesting, but after seeing this…

I’ll try the next release to give it a shot. If nothing changes, I’ll just ignore it and move on.

Just played this Ep.3 update.
I think players still can’t avoid most of the scenes because all the options/choices have no real impact on the story or the pursued girls. It seems like they’re just skippable rather than truly avoidable.

For Hazel’s unavoidable scenes, there are two options, but they don’t really change anything. The dialogue is slightly different, but players still can’t avoid her.

For me, I still don’t like her character. Maybe if the dev rewrote her introduction, everyone would like her more.

I still don’t like Eddie either.

As for the basement scene, I think the dev rewrote the story for Sadie. I’m not sure why, but still—why is that dude even there?
At least players can avoid her route now.

Her femdom scenes are really fucked up :cautious:.
Maybe in the next update, Sadie will have a threesome with MC and the other guy in the basement using a strap-on :ROFLMAO:.

I think her route is meant for players who enjoy femdom, not for everyone. It’s really unfortunate that not all players can fully enjoy her route.

In Overall :
The story is starting to get interesting, but the choices don’t seem to matter. There are still unavoidable characters, and I’m not sure if players can get all the girls in a single playthrough.

I played the previous two episodes, but this one is definitely better so far—it ties everything together well compared to the other two.

completely missed that scene on the basement the first time, and yes a few render were cut (even if they still are in the images folder ).

even if it's cut, Sadie still explain to mc how she like her blood, so even if we dont see it we know that it happen anyway, and since we see her drink blood at least two times on a short period of time + what she said to the guy about it not being the first time let us assume that she do that regularly. (and since she isnt particulary close to the mc by that point there is no reason for her to stop doing that with other men than the mc )


It hardly count as ntr since mc doesnt have any feeling for her and the dynamic of the relationship they have is more superior/employes + a sub in their sexual one , but it doesnt make her particulary appealing as an li either.

Personnaly i dont dislike her per see,and i dont have anything against femdom (even the scene and how it happen seem to pop out of nowhere and mc accept it far too easily) but i have a hard time seing her as a real main love interest and not just a side girl with that kind of dynamic between them ( even more so since there isnt any close scene with her when we can already have some meaningfull moment with the others main li).

We'll see how it develop in the futur with her i guess since asside from that, i had a realy good time following the story so far.

Yea, it's always the same with femdom LI - they just using MC as a fucktoy and nothing more, there is no real connection between characters, no feelings etc. It's hard to create a good romance and lovey-dovey stuff with that dynamic.

Good option is make her switch at some point or MC sub only in bed - not a whole personality/character where he is completely dominated

We are just at the beginning of the relationship, give it time to show the romance aspect. We will get there, but they literally are just starting out, some love interests haven't even started yet, so I feel like you are judging too quick.

Damn, are these the LIS? And are they still inevitable? I was thinking about playing it but I'm going to stay away from this game. Thanks for clarifying and saving my time.

Would really enjoy more of the panty thief story, but I'm afraid I'm in the minority for this game. :-D *shrug*

Thats the joy of Choose Your Own Adventure games. That could totally be a side path if the dev wants to do it, the MC can decide to help collecting or not so those of us not interested don't have to. :)

Updated my compressed Android port of Soulmate with BAD75's walkthrough mod to Episode 3.

Got some basic gestures loaded in: swipe up for save menu, swipe down to hide UI, swipe left to rollback and swipe right to skip. Save files are now stored in the Documents folder. This sometimes means that you may need to close and re-open the port after installing so the save folder is properly created.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the ports and I'll see what I can do to get them sorted.

So am I doing something wrong or why is the Sadie route not showing complete? It just goes to the basement with that guy but not the MC.

I’ve made some adjustments to the basement storyline, so what you’re seeing is indeed correct. ;)

Replaying from the beginning to remind me of what's going on. Forgot about the cultural anachronism going on. The dev is Chinese and all the supernatural stuff is from that culture, and it looks & sounds a little odd for a bunch of westerners talking about "charms" and wtf is a ghost nun???
View attachment 4525733
If you want an American female ghost go with like Bloody Mary (I think that one is American, but if not it's a better choice for the European one) or one of the women murdered at the Salem Witch Trials. Or the Blair Witch. :D

This anachronism isn't a bad thing per se, but it strikes a discordant chord in the story. And now I see from recent posts that there's a vampire and one character is a tiger so obviously I got some things to catch up on...

Is "Meave" a misspelling of Maeve? Besides that though, my compliments to the dev, they aren't a native speaker but you can tell they're writing it in English instead of machine translating it. Or they're having it translated by another non-native speaker who is decently fluent.

Thank you so much for your suggestions. When I saw you mention ‘Ghost Nun,’ I was just as confused—WTF is that? It’s been a year since I wrote that part of the story, and I honestly have no idea what I was thinking back then.:eek:

Yes, I spelled Maeve incorrectly. She’s a character I really like from a certain game, but I must have misheard the pronunciation and have been spelling it wrong all this time. Thank you so much for pointing it out.:)

Also, it’s Saint Blackmoor who’s helping me proofread the English version. I really appreciate his assistance. Thank you Saint!:love:

Nice game. Lol it's very "straits Chinese". It actually brings back memories of various superstitions and beliefs from when I was young.

The game really need a gallery though. Would love to revisit certain scenes again without having to do a full replay.
