I'm conflicted about the girls in this game. Bella is my No.1 choice - always do her route. Now I'm doing another playthrough for Nami since she's pretty cute and obviously loves MC deeply. Still got another playthrough to have Mila route setup..

Totally stumped what one I want the most. Probably Bella but it looks like there might be a fair bit of Nami content from the previews and I doubt there will be much Bella stuff this time around.

This is the trouble with games that have a few hot chicks to choose from....decisions, decisions.

We're only at the beginning of the story and not even half of the girls haven't even got their proper introduction yet. So, I don't understand the need to have different paths for different girls for now. It's only logical to do this later.

It's not one of those usual VNs but different and seems anything is possible with no limitations, like the MC can choose from a whole lot of choices (depends on the nature of his character, behavior and personality) and alternatives, you know.

I don't see the reason for points with all the girls in that case, plus things like going to sneak out with Bella blocks the staying in with Nami scene etc. or if you say yes to dating Victoria, Mila won't go on a date with the MC first.

I don't want to get a few chapters down the line and find out I screwed up a certain girls path. You can't get max points with all the girls in one playthrough.

Plus I'm pretty much only interested in Bella, Nami and Mila, anyway.

That doesn't sound like an issue at all. Like I said, whatever the choices you make and have made, there'd be alternatives for things you missed out due to those choices in the past.

Let's say hypothetically, Nami owes you 10 dollars, but she couldn't give it you today because you had to go kick a villain's arse or Bella messed up and you ended up in the trash can. Now, would Nami try to give that 10 dollars to you the next day you show up reeking like shit or would she just keep it?

Yeah, she'd probably keep it but you get my point right?

I don't want to get a few chapters down the line and find out I screwed up a certain girls path. You can't get max points with all the girls in one playthrough and will miss scenes. Hence you need those separate playthroughs.

Not really, no.

With the new update coming soon, I am just setting up several differing paths with the girls so I see all the new content with them....rather than start from fresh once the update hits. E.g one route I have MC rude and pro Bella pretty much while not being interested in Victoria, Nami or Mila. Another route is more social MC and focused on Nami but less tolerant to Bella.

There is no mystical thing here, just covering all bases for the girls so far to see max content in the update. It might be early in the story but it's still a lot of hours content so far.

I really don't get the analogy stuff but what was an initial "not sure what girl I want, so doing various routes for content" post has gotten long winded now.
Unless, the walkthrough is wrong and all these girls +/- points mean nothing, you still have to backtrack for various choices not to lock you out of content.

Well that sucks balls.
Oh well I have enjoyed playing through again as it's been ages since I last played it.

Ya, on the bright side, if you wait until the final release of Ch4 (non-beta) I believe Ch1 is re-worked, so updated render quality. That's the one I'm looking forward to, although admittedly if it's a Beta that gets released publicly I'll grab it to play first as I have been so looking forward to Ch4.

Nojiko isn't going to be LI?? WTF!!!
Can see it already in the future people screaming and shouting the famous 3 letter word and bitching that she is having sex with someone that isn't the mc!!
I mean I am disappointed as she is a stunning character but also it's kind of refreshing to know that this isn't going down the usual incest trope where the mc chases of other guys or the mother figure has an epiphany and only needs the sons cock, yeah it would have been nice to have a choice and with how fucked up our mc it wouldn't be hard to get shut off a rival guy.

Chapter 4 BETA - Release date
Hello,

The BETA is pretty much done and the release of Chapter 4 will be tomorrow. (May 31st.)

It took a little longer as I had to wait for a few thingies.
But yesterday, everything got pretty much resolved.

Yesterday in total:
I signed a licensing deal for 210€ a month with a Band from the US.
Vesky and I also made a new deal and I bought the licenses for many of his songs. (+ access to future unreleased ones.) for 3600€.

And it wasn't planned to have the reworked Gallery in Ch4 Beta, but I spent two days on it and reworked the design.
(Many people thought it had only 5 girls in it. There was a "Next page" button hidden at the side.

The new gallery design is now pretty much the same as in WiAB. (Special milf page + cursor hovering over Nojiko.)


A superficial overview:
Almost exactly 2300 renders.
5 Cinematics. (14000 animation frames.)
(3 got scraped halfway due to Daz performing like shit and it not being worth it due to the fact that I will have to remove it with Chapter 5.)
6500 lines. (For comparison, Chapter 3.5 had 4700.)

And now, I'll finish the rest of the gallery. (Adding pictures, etc.) and then I'll be releasing it tomorrow.


I'm tired.

i don’t get what he means with “tomorrow” in his post. Technically it is tomorrow today in Europe from americas perspective. He hasn’t slept yet and it confuses me if the release date is the 30th or 31st even though he mentions it’s the 31st. Just doing gallery can’t take more than tonight and a little of tomorrow (30th)? Lmao I’ve just confused myself with this whole post… :HideThePain:
