I haven't played since the last three updates, really doesn't bother me if this one is small or not since I'm just going to wait for another 2-3 until I play anyway

So, in the new cheat mode you start with full stats? Doesn't that mess up the story progression?

Remember boyos: whatever you think of the project's trajectory, it's been on this path for a long time now -- anyone who is a patron today is already okay with the current release schedule, and accepts it as a fact of life.

It's the sunk cost fallacy and too many people fail to see TV shows, movies and games as products. They become too emotionally attached.

When a company adopts anti-consumer practices, Sony for instance, I stop supporting them. Yes I may want to buy things but giving them money despite what they do would show a lack of spine, selling myself out for an entertainment product.

I was expecting some minor bugs but nothing compared to that. You said there's another way to pass the first day, how?

All I did was after from school and going home for the debbie on the phone event, I went to diane for a little intro. She then ask me to get a shovel and after taking one from home, I took some time from cleaning her garden. Then went to eve's rap battle and then went home.

Or you could always go home and press sleep right away.

The game is a hella buggy really. The need to fix it asap.

 

[Gutsandguts]

Right now ? nothing. But see it as the developper of this BETA GAME thought about it. Better for them to implement it as the developpment goes than after all the shit has been coded. Simple, practical logic.
I finished this release with all scenes and no bugs, so i'm quite surprised to see all the negativity here, but idk maybe i'm lucky, maybe i'm the only one that actually reads the update notes

Doesn't really seem practical at all, how many times has stuff been reworked in this game already? Makes way more sense to put endgame content at the end when everything else is finalized.
In a year or two watch him have to rework half this stuff and wonder why adding it now was worthwhile.

I waited patiently for all this time, many months, thinking MAYBE we'll get a lot of new content about the sister, a titfuck, some lewd rubbing while she's drying off from the shower making the MC cum in his pants (pretty hilarious if you ask me), a pool topless sun oil "massage", an handjob while having dinner,some good old hate sex, eventually going to a more lovey dovey ending where she lets us sleep\fuck in her bed and some hold hands sex as climax. I could even dig awakening her lewd side as a some "slutty nympho" asking to ride MC's dick at night submitting to her lust.

But we got only a couple of new scenes, which are only foreplay and some of the greatest scenes were removed, while the rest remained the old ones from a year ago.
Diane's stuff was the same as well, as the first scene of her getting scared of a shoelace in sexy underwear was a nice touch, but that "taboo" feel between Aunt Diane and MC was lost when it focused more on a pointless cow cosplay, when should have had more scenes of fucking the aunt around her house, ending with mating press her in the final scene to impregnate her (that's what she wanted, isn't it?) then move in MC's house, starting some lesbian foreplay to climax with the Mom and Aunt threesome.
This didn't even happen, but instead had more focus on a dumb "cow girl" and milking roleplay.

And 0.18 was the update i wanted the most, i waited long time for the resolution of the sister storyline, and it doesn't even go anywhere, and her "love you" still is a dead end, the sister's storyline has been fucked up, she's still a bitch and that's not really good writing. It was since 0.16 since i stopped playing SS (since originally was supposed to be the sister's update before Patreon's incest meltdown) and i can say without a doubt that the current update, and the quantity of scenes per length of update is not enough, considering also that the new "art" wasn't even implemented, so why it took so long?
There should have been at least 10 new scenes considering Roxxy's update as example, but it was like Diane's update, 2 new scenes and a couple of old ones removed, so it's as if there was no real update as the scenes number remains the same.

How can I start playing the new content immediately from a new game ?

You can't

I think they have disassociated stat progress with quest progression in attempt to cut down on bugs.

 

[xloke]

any save?

If you stick to watching the Jenny hints, you can avoid most of the other content and just go through the Jenny quests. Mostly. There seemed to be more hammering on the space bar than usual.

 

[McSlut]

i think the key difference between the roxxy update and the jenny update and why the former is more liked is because of character development. roxxy is a bitch at first but she warms up to you falls in love with you. her personality changes a lot during the story. jenny meanwhile starts of as a cunt and at the end she's still a cunt that has sex with you. i don't think every character should have the same arc, if every girl in SS starts of hating you and then falls in love with you that would be boring. but i hope at least for the eve update DC has some fresh ideas for the story and for eve as a character.

Going into tree house game breaking bug no fix I'll wait on fixes this is by far the worse update yet shame and it took forever. This seems like heavy milking the Patreon's dropped my sub this update

Same here just trap's you in treehouse. will give it a few days for DC to finish cleaning up

Can someone tell me how to enable console, I set the console command to true in console.rpy file but it still wont open ingame??

True. I think it's both the patreons and the devs fault why the game releases almost useless updates time to time. The main story should have been progressed and then the other characters affected by it gets included. Other games like a mother's love and back to the cabin seems better for me than this update.

 

[David Archibald]

can i use my saves from the previous version on the new version?

 

[macadam]

lol it's like fighting windmills! Trust me, every time there is a new update on every game... someone need to complain about the update! I'm used to it by now. Is for that, that i generally ask only if the update is playable or not. DC do always a great work. If some time there is some error, surelly he fix it. Some ppl do not understand that we download for free here. The best thing we can do is just wait, play and help DC or other developer in beta testing thing. So they can create a better game for everyone.

Anyway for me this is a great update, more incest thing, more awesome thing for me. Also the 0.18.5 is great to know
I just hope to see it very soon. Also because i need to wait for the incest patch. So for me... i need to wait a bit longer.

at difference that i dont fight them. i warn them.

i dont have power to fight. but i can report.
if i report alots, that will trigger moderators brain cell of madness, and in return, will make them come here and swipe the whole thing.

i'd never fight like this. its not my job. but nobody want to see a moderator pissed off by a chicken. trust me

I really wish they do away with the skill system at some point... It's just completely redundant and boring. At the VERY LEAST in this update they made it so that skill checks are always passed... Up until recently you still had to train for everything. It used to require like max charisma to get past the stupid shower scene with Roxy and her friends at school... That was terrible. You could race through the Roxy plot without a single charisma point, but to get through that scene you needed to spend god knows how many nights doing the stupid rap battle minigame, which was boring enough WITH the "skip minigame" option...

Not to mention that UNTIL YOU GRINDED ENOUGH, every single time you entered the school you'd get the "I stink I need a shower" cutscene.
