I have a problem bypassing Dimitri. And increase dysterity with the master. Does anyone has a trick or cheat or maybe a save file just after beating Dimitri?

is the best friend of all who are lacking dysterity, or just want to bypass any minigame

But do not be afraid, even my mod lets you try the Dimitry chanllenge at least once before you can use that feature.

Thank you. Now find a way to mod the Android version. Maybe just unzip, apply mod, rezip, reinstall apk?I

The mod can be installed on Android, just follow the instructions given in the first post of the mod's thread. And you should post all mod related questions in that thread as well.

I've never understood the dexterity mini-game. On the PC version, I just hold the spacebar and the meter fills in about a second. Is it supposed to be that easy, or is it supposed to require rapid key smashing?

Do you mean the random mini-game you can skip with cheat mode, the push-up war with Dexter during Roxxy's route or the final fight against mafia boi during the main route ? 1 is skippable, the other is trash easy with max stats and just hitting spacebar once every second and rekt Dexter or the last 1 still being skippable or rather easy with max stats ..... Basically, people dunno how to play and/or raise stats so come here and cry

Well sure, you can always cheat! Actually, it wasn't the dexterity minigame (with Somrak) that I was thinking of, but the strength minigame with Kevin. It seems to be a test of my ability to hold a key for a second.

My big question is, why does the MC still dress like if he just recently woke up,i bet if we could see his shoes he is wearing flip flops everywhere no matter the context while everyone else in town is a normal person that dresses accordingly.

Im not expecting the artist to start painting different outfits for every scene but i dont know... knowing the mc starts being a loser and ends up being the best at every class and fucking every girl in town he deserves some better wardrobe.

And this is why most mini-games/time-wasters in games are shit. I can understand games where you have the character search for the missing clues in a page (and pull up fun easter eggs to keep entertainment level high) ONCE (or twice, depending upon the game's theme).

The pregnancy "wheel spin" is a cute application and nice touch, in my opinion - because it is an apt representation of the sperm's quest. It would be interesting if there was a varying level of success - either slower/faster spinning or narrower/wider gap - depending upon age/day of the week/or RNG.

But these call-backs to old flash games of fingersmashing keys or stroking your mouse north/south east/west to maintain an erection or build stamina are lazy coding, honestly. There are better concepts for mini-games that can use current mechanics to engage players. Either commit to game play or just develop a storyline to incorporate skill growth or ditch it all and just make it a walking simulator between ejaculations.

The most likely explanation is that DC just started drawing MC without really thinking too much about it. The first character he created was Roxxy in her bikini (that's why she's on the logo) and it seems like MC was made to fit that "beachy" look.
At some point it basically reached a state where it was just too much work to change it. Sure, you can have special scenes with different outfits, but for everything else it's close to impossible. Keep in mind that especially the cut scenes have to be adapted/redrawn by hand. Given that it's a sandbox you'd probably need 2 or 3 versions of each at least and that's where the additional effort just outweighs the benefit.

Nice clothing in general is a complicated issue in 2D games.

The wheelspin is % based depending on the girl and/or if you took pills. It doesn't affect the speed just how often you can get the "good" ending. It's a start at basic RNG

Agreed. I'm willing to work a bit for the payoff, but the minigames should at least be fun and, maybe, possibly, have something to do with sex? I don't mind moving my mouse around until I've cleared the Rump hot tub, or clicked all the bugs and veggies in Diane's garden. Even pizza delivery isn't terrible. It's just not sexy.

Then there's the sewer minigame. It takes a long time, and there's no skill involved. Just make Anon crawl through human feces and occasionally stop to vomit. Who thought that would be fun?

I think that would spin the Patrons the wrong way : many dudes would get extra-mad at having to do mini-games just to get the lewds. At least now, the mini-trash is only to advance the routes/game in general. Though in some instances, you do need stats for some smex stuff (like STR for breaking Jenny's shackles), so having to play mini-junk beforehand is somewhat tied to dickage. Just farther away than "click spacebar for 20 secs to assbeat Dexter so you get to see Roxxy's tidders in this 1 scene before having to do it 5 more times before the route ends".

This.

In order to reuse art, there's a layering system with bodies, arms, faces, and sometimes extras like dicks or dick bulges. There are almost 19,000 images in the game in order for the MC and each character to have one outfit. Since the images aren't generated dynamically, a second set of clothes is another body and maybe ten sets of arms and a couple of bulges, to just cover standing and talking. To have Anon wearing that same set of clothes when he's sitting, lying on a bed, getting pushed onto a bed, riding a scooter, having breakfast, jerking off on the couch, and fucking a dozen different women... that's anywhere from hundreds to thousands of new images.

Yeah, you know - it's been so long since I actually played the game, I forgot about the garden. That's pretty decent of a diversion of a game. The pizza game isn't sexy, true and I never really liked it, myself but it is a step above button-mashing.

Ah. right. Shows how much I actually play this game.

I wasn't proposing a change to what you have to do to get to the lewds. I was talking about either removing the minigames or, at least, replacing the really pointless ones with something better. Right now, there's a few that I don't mind, a few that suck, and one that I simply hate.

Merely a week after release and the milkers are already dead, sad. At least we got a good laugh for the 1st 2-3 days
