Sewer. Specifically when the cat gets there(after you feed it enough times(buy food from the king of the chuds in the arcade part of brewery). Camera goes on the collar)... but this is where that path ends for now.
Just discovered this. WOW what a concept! Love 2dCG AVN's, love cyberpunk, and especially love corruption / mind control. This is like a sip of water in a desert. Thank you Limejuice, never quit! And ignore the people whining about few sex scenes - slow burns burn hottest. 
This game is top notch. It is slow paced by any measure but it delivers very nicely. One of the top 5 games on this site for sure, and probably even top 3. I've been around for a few years now, and the worst part about this game is that there isn't enough of it. Keep up the good work Lime!
This is a *very* good game! I really hope none of the requests to slow down the corruption are taken to heart, because it's perfectly paced (maybe even a *little* too grindy in the beginning).
Specific thoughts:
- As mentioned, I think the beginning of the game is a little bit of a grind and has a little too much monetary tension. I felt like I was perfectly executing the bartending mini game (95/100 times hitting perfect pours, keeping social statuses up, efficiently using flirt to refill bar time), but I always felt like I was barely scraping by on credits.
- Related to the above, the degree to which many gameplay elements are obfuscated makes it hard to know and appreciate the value of my decisions/successes. What exactly do each of the social status effects do? How much more value do I get out of serving a perfect martini vs. a beer (and therefore, what's the cost/benefit ratio of the significantly more expensive brewing process for the latter)? Is training progress/corruption based on anything that I do while bartending/waitressing? It would be nice if the game surfaced some of these things more effectively.
- The one time that the corruption pacing actually felt off was having access to the post-waitressing scene with handjobs and window-licking many, many days before the post-bartending scene where Catherine unlocks her willingness to touch the Chuds and drink cum. I assume this is more of an oversight, since I think the first is only gated by unlocking waitressing while the second is presumably gated by a different training event.
Overall, I'm extremely excited to see the rest of the content come in! The setting and writing are top-notch, the artwork is amazing, and the gameplay is fundamentally very engaging. I hope this goes on to meet its potential as one of the top games out there!

When bartending, the 'social' status, the little text bubble icon, effectively makes your shift time drain at half the normal rate (or rather, the chuds lose interest twice as fast on any turn in which you don't keep the social icon up, whether by small talk or card tricks or flirting). Any time that icon is not lit up you want to do something to reactivate it, or you're effectively losing turns.
The heart icon means the chuds are horny. You turn it on by flirting, turn it off by using the squirt bottle, and I think that after a single round in which you're topless it goes on automatically; not sure if there are other conditions. It means that the intelligent conversation action (which would recover three turns worth of shift time if they weren't so horny) no longer works, but adds a chance every turn for chuds to jerk off (adding to Cat's arousal, and potentially leading to either a 'tip' for you to drink or an orgasm which will add a lot to your remaining shift time). So if you haven't started working topless yet, I recommend not flirting until after you've done three turns of normal activity, then done the Intelligent conversation, then flirt immediately after that. If you're topless, don't bother trying to say anything meaningful (they won't listen) and just make the customers as horny as possible.
I think that training progress/availability is linked to a hidden corruption stat, but since it's invisible I'm not 100% sure which actions advance it at each stage. I just know that the cheat chicken warns against adding more than five points at a time, because it might cause events to play out of order. My guess each story stage will require ~5 reps of whatever is the most extreme thing you're currently allowed to do, plus any secondary narrative requirements. Which does feel slightly more natural than watching a meter go up with every interaction, but there are times when I don't know if I got the same result four times in a row because I'm actually not making progress or because the change will come on the fifth interaction.
It does seem weird that we aren't allowed to know what each drink sells for. As a general rule if you aren't screwing up too much you're always going to be making a little bit more money than your expenses take up and thus making slow progress through the upgrade tree, and higher rank drinks make more profit for the same actions than lower rank ones, but you can't really plan things down to exact margins and numbers. Maybe it's supposed to represent how Catherine is good at customer service but terrible at actual business, so you gotta let your accounting bot handle all of that?
The window licking scene is locked behind the same level of training that allows topless bartending (and letting the chuds grope you). After your first topless shift at the counter, the cyborgs will get annoyed about being treated worse than the chuds, and you start doing waitressing topless too. Per your instructions to IO, if you have your top on the 'no touching' rule is strictly enforced, but if you're topless he only takes action if you ask for help or are in immediate physical danger; the cyborgs take advantage of this much more quickly than the chuds do if you're progressing both at the same time because they're bolder and more aggressive in general, so they'll put their dicks in your hands while the chuds still haven't realized they can go any further than occasionally touching your butt.
Black screen bug after the windowwasher scene. Seems to happen consistently if I reload.
I am using a save from 0.2.9 though. Is there a way to fix this that doesn't involve having to start over?
Edit: Nevermind, better to start over, tbh.

All makes sense. I mostly figured it out well enough to get by (I made it to the end of current content with all of the upgrades and the gallery fully unlocked), but I still think being able to hover over the icon to see what the status effect does would be a nice UI improvement. (As a dev with a lot of experience in Unity, I know this is far from a trivial ask!)
Yeah, I think that it would be nice to have something as simple as a "+5 Corruption" in the message log or whatever at the point where those points are gained.
The weird thing to me was that Catherine was giving handjobs to the Cyborbs and licking cum off of the window without much fanfare, but then the post-bartending scene where she gives her first handjobs to Chuds feels like it is supposed to represent a major milestone. It's a minor gripe, and fixing it well would probably require the addition of another, tamer scene that happens with the cyborgs after waitressing until Catherine crosses the "handjobs and cum-drinking" threshold.

An amazing member of the community, TirGerm, made these and sent them to me. I'm not really sure what the process is here for this kind of stuff but I'll post it here now while I look to see if there is a better place to store this.

Thanks for the shout out!
To everyone here on the thread enjoy yourselves with them and if you want to add a link to the game there is a tutorial for it right here:

Does anybody have advice for the waitressing minigame? with the 3 or 5 turns available I generally just...
get closer, then linger, then back up a bit when there are 1/2+ hands.
is that the idea? did i miss something painfully obvious?
Many thanks!

Really like the premise and what is there thus far and eagerly waiting new content.
One suggestion I have though;
Right now if you reach a certain point at the pool table, the writing says something about
"You're gonna make this a regular thing now?"
And at least in my case, I was stuck on this phase for a very long time. It just makes it feel a bit odd that she over and over does the same thing and gets the same question. (I get that stages need to repeat, but I think just the writing in particular could be adapted to make repeat viewings make a bit more sense). Maybe the bit about making it a regular thing should be a one time view, and then next stage be laid up in a way that repeat viewing makes sense writing wise too.
I will also echo statements of others in this thread. Some more transparency when it comes to what profits drinks make would be nice. Very difficult to know if it's worth serving higher level drinks when they're more expensive and we don't really know how much of a difference it makes. (It didn't feel like very much at least).
