3. Find the Earl at his office building (top right) at Ram City.

You can travel to Ram City by interacting with the bus stop sign at Seaside carpark(where the convenience store is).
His building is at the top right of Ram City's map. Bring Shion with you.

Make sure you've spoke to Masaru. He'll ask you to go there

"i'm here for a short time before go to bakery bla bla bla"
Door is still locked...
Befriend him using gifts like curry bun or butter. After that in the quests he tells you he needs premium flour blah blah go to the Earl, then it unlocks

How can i make Erika closser to me?
Gift her gifts (she hates seafood and likes milk, loves mint CCC)

Just can't start the Earl quest after Erica's event.
Go east from Seaside village (east exit to carpark). walk around the the exit, the event should activate.


I'll make sure the event will activate easier next update.

Bro the beach bar mini games sometimes bugged only spawn 3 customer with bubble so it's impossible to clear as you can't enter the bar without certain number of order, my suggestion to let us enter with any number of order taken so you can still finnish the minigames

I am try to progress the Masaru(baking) path. I started the path and let Shion work there for a morning. Yet when I talk to Masaru he does not tell me about the Earl? What do I need to do here?

OK I wanted to try this game, but the intro is WAY too long... I read everything at first, then got bored and tried to skip. I didnt find a way to skip dialog so I held down Z... the dialogue when on and on and on and on... about 10 min in I havend moved the MC one tile. No interaction, no H scene or decission at all. Still hold Z down... dialogue went on and on...
then I just turned the game off.

This game might be a masterpiece, but Ill never find out. If you expect me to read all this and even care about it let me DO something. I didnt download a game to read a book.

7RKguy,
Found a bug: seems like scripts that changing days doesn't work properly, so I can't give presents to characters and use phone, have a message that I give a present today, same with phone call. Used phone to rewind time from one day to another before this. Date on the screen changes properly though.
Also should mention that I found access card on the back streets early in the game and now it dissapears from inventory and also can't be found in the back streets.
P.S. fingers on baker palms in the CG of the air cooler event are simply wrong, like left palm on right hand and right palm on left hand
P.S.S. can't stop keking from "corruption by fingers/hands", baker hands should be even bigger for maximum shoujo experience:LOL: good shit

Will check on the keycard bug. When you mean that it disappears from the inventory, was there something that made it disappear? I ran a check and there should be only one instance when it was removed from your inventory.

edit: changed the key pass to be absolutely unusable for the next update (just in case people used it not sure if this is your case but its a measure)

How do you rewind time with the phone because it should be only fast-forwarding time. Your game might be bugged out because you didn't go to bed and stay up way too late. The game should teleport you back but that might be a bug, so let me know.

Re: fingers/hands on cooler event. Am I having a stroke because I was staring at it and granted the art might not be A-tier but the fingers/hands look fine to me. Would help if you can clarify that but holy fuck would it be a nightmare to have to re-do all of that set of images.

I found it even before first talk to Earl, maybe it's because of this. I didn't know for exact moment when it dissapears, just found it occasionaly.

Bad wording from my side, imply fast-forward of course (second language and wrote it in the middle of the night, please understand:oops:).
you didn't go to bed and stay up way too late
Yes, never did it, always used phone to pass time for the next day (btw, please, allow jump up to 6 hours via both phone and sofa and make quick access to the phone with key without needing to open inventory every time)
The game should teleport you back but that might be a bug, so let me know.
Didn't happend at all for 10 days straight

About art:

I have to say that art quality is like 50% of success. It's up on you, but you need to pay attention to such details when they are in the focus of the scene, at least for the future events.

Oh, and while I am at it, let me talk another few things:

I'd also like to suggest a few things:
- with such disconected locations it's better to have world map where you can move between actual locations with limited time pass when you are exit one location and enter another;
- make a button to quick skip the dialogues, it was made in other games: by pressing CTRL dialogues are very quickly passed;
- make an indications of exits from locations, something like this:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
- already said about quick access to the phone and more hours in time pass;
- allow to skip prologue, game is in early stage now, some players can find game breaking bugs so the starting over could be the only solution so they don't need to read it all again. Not to mention that prologue itself is pretty long and it can easily filter some players;
- something like recollection room with access via phone, for example, would be appreciated;
- make a manual for vegetables collect work or something like "3-2-1-START" because QTE starts too suddenly;
- bar minigame should be easier - it's enough to have 3 orders with showing icons on head of the NPC who are wants to make an order all the time, not when you are "touching" them, also list of current orders could be shown on the screen so you should just make it and remember who ordered what, it would be less nervous but still have enough gameplay.

On the side note: hope that NTR plot wouldn't become too serious, it's fine as silly as it is for now, but, well, that's just me, I can't call myself true NTR enjoyer because I like certain hidden sex scenes appeal, not the process of "girl being stolen and MC becoming a cuck" itself. Also like dynamics between Shion and bar owner, hatesex should be fun.
And another thing - just by looking on the locations I can say that game is pretty ambitious, hope you wouldn't burn out, so, good luck.

Also have a few questions about game structure: seems like it's impossible to complete the plot goal of saving money just by working so far, is it intensional? And another question - with time limit during days it looks like you can't go for the more than 1 root at the same time, am I right?

I'm not sure how to reply to someone without quoting (its a long post) so here's your reply.
First off, thanks for the detailed post. You've obviously put work into it.
Re: Shion's sprite, I actually do have another sprite/pose for her with different expressions..I just need to work on it and put it in. This will be used for other routes.

Re: Images with thumbs/palms taking you out of immersion.

irst image with the bra is actually doable if you have monstrously long fingers
Actually it's only thumb that should be actually longer than all other fingers to do so, because other fingers on the picture are not as big. But, well, I noticed it only second time while making my post, so it definetely better than later examples where you are clearly see that something not right with the hands.
So there's going to be areas where you move from place A to B and in between there's a path that you don't see/there's no need to show.
Maps shouldn't be 1 to 1 as real village of course but going west to found youself in north is clearly messing with your navigation over the world, it should be intuitive and such things breaks immersion. Also want to note another thing - sometimes you can exit from location just by walking to exit point and sometimes you need to press ENTER button, I think it should be consistent.
So the player isn't supposed to perfect all the games the first try.
Bar still feels overcomplicated for a porn game. You have a decent idea with fishing - just upgrade fishing pole and you can catch better fish with QTE, but with bar you actually need a paper and pencil to do it and still have only 2 minutes to complete it. I tried it only once and honestly don't even want to return to it.
Another strange thing btw - why Shion doesn't give you money after working, I thought that she and MC have the same goal but in fact when she is working alone it doesn't bring any money, what's the point then?
And about gifts - with how little money you recieve from work, hints from characters about favorite gift should be clear enough. For example, baker daughter clearly said about chocolate, I found choco beans on the mountain, make some chocolate and give it to her, but where should I know that baker likes almond cookies and his wife likes milk?
The one route per playthrough thing is tricky...so there's that for me to have a headache about. You don't really get why game devs like Scars make one route per playthrough until you try to do the same. And now I do but I can see why people won't like it. I'll need to think it through.
Having many roots at the same time allows you to see as many content as possible during one walkthrough, but they could conflict with each other on program level I suppose. Also some people prefer to have one antagonist at a time. I'd for example prefer to have all roots at the same time (like, baker on the morning, bar on the evening and so on), but it could be difficult on technical level, not to mention that character quests also needs to spend time on them, not just make Shion work all the time.
Regarding the seriousness of the route. I can't promise it will be light hearted/silly/fap only kind of thing but there will be five of them so...if it doesn't suit your taste, there's 4 more.
Well, looking forward for it. Hope it wouldn't be too dark at least. Could you tell what other roots would be aside from mayor and bar or it's too spoilery?
Yeah, it's actually way too big for my first game
That's what I meant that when talking about game being "ambitious". 5 roots with like near 10 scenes each other, plus, as I understand correctly mayor speech about board with NPC requests, side events - it's very big for one person. But if you made it to the end successfully - it would be quite the achievement.
And one other question - will vanilla path be actual root with some gameplay and sex events?
Oh, I have to say something about art quality. I wouldn't call it bad, seen worse, it's simple and anime-style that I appreciate (don't like western 2d style most of the times, honestly) and you even tried to make animations but you definetely need to work more with hands (yes, I know that proper hands is one of the most difficult things to draw) and with Shion head, couldn't really imagine her as an idol honestly.

Instead the Vanilla route gives you that money through a treasure.
That's what I am asking about - would you just find such treasure occasionaly or would it be separate quest? And what about shrine girl, she obviously needs to be saved from whoever fucks her, would it be a part of vanilla root (with threesome ending, of course)?
Pagedown to skip text
Oh, didn't know that, it's actually works

Nope, vanilla route that comes much later will just be pure vanilla route.
Bar game will need a lookover but its not going to be that important for content, basically players only need to play it once or twice and don't even need to succeed to unlock content. Honestly, since this is an NTR game, the protag is never going to be Mr. I can do it all so having him suck at stuff makes more sense but I can certainly see where you are coming from.

Shion doesn't give you money because you're not supposed to be able to pay it off. I can add in a line that says "she's saving it all up to give you everything at one go at the end of the month" but its not a priority.

I need to get back to game dev so I can't answer everything else but regarding routes.

Regarding your save state, I recommend going to sleep instead of using the phone to pass through 1AM-2AM. the game by right should send you back when the clock is at 3AM (I assume you hit 4AM so it misses that). I'll fix it but the access card leads you to a scene that I don't want you to miss.

It's more about current game mechanics - as a player I care about having as bigger outcome out of successful competition in mini-games as possible because prices are high and work outcome is low, but I need to make proper gifts and keep STAMINA stat high. So, side outcome from Shion would be appreciated too in such situation. Plus, you can make a resting on sofa to recover stamina for free, but is spends time, or you can use food as now but it costs money, but you don't spend time on that, something like that. Honestly, it feels strange when I found that resting doesn't recover stamina at all. So, what I want to say is that overall game feels too strict on a player for a porn game.
regarding routes
Thanks for information, seems like you are going for many hidden sex scenes, it's good (btw some curtain play would be appreciated too, same with "caught right afer sex" situations;)), I don't know much games that did it properly. But I have some questions again - firstly, I've seen casino and red light square locations on the map, it's planned for routes or some side activities? And another question - how linear are routes planned to be? I mean, there is MIND stat that can be lowered but also can be rised again or you can just ignore the mystic ability of MC and Shion affection can be both raised and lowered, is it all important?
Regarding your save state
Oh, I started game again (I guess, with current save I already lost access card), with text skip button it's already better expirience but then game suddenly froze on second day. So I have another suggestion - can you make autosaves at the start of each day, like at 0:00 or at any other point? It's very frustrating that you can suddenly lost progress.
