It would be a decent game... withouth the tabletop mechanics. At least the game should include an option to remove the dice mechanics and just see the scenes.
It wouldn't be a game then. :unsure:

Sometimes it's needlessly frustrating to follow some paths I admit. I used save/load to get the right rolls a few times.

We start the game as a friend type. Can this be changed later in the game (are there choices?), or should I just play and over time it will become more of a friend type?

Can someone describe the possible types... I know a friend, spoiled, reserved. Could someone list the others and write how to get them?

How do you trigger sex scenes with MJ? (like the 'Midnight Shower Sex' in the gallery) Is there a PERV value that I need to reach? This game needs a walkthrough :p

Holy shit this game is amazing.

Would appreciate the ability to see the hidden stats; the pathways are too obscured and not easily re-approached if you've made an unknowing misstep but man, what a fantastic game in every other way.

Begging for a slutty path that includes implants and extreme bimbofication in future updates.

Hi all.

I need HELP on this, or/and advice.

I like this game, but for some reason, since the 0.57 pc version, i am getting this ERROR screen, when MJ comes to the office and greet us.
My saves are not that old that incompatibility is a thing, i think. The 0.55 version still works all fine.

This is a screenshot (from the new 0.60 pc version) of what happens always when she comes to see me.
I have always to choose IGNORE to pass that screen, then the game returns to normal:

I put below the TRACEBACK file :

You can almost certainly fix this with the same technique I describe here:
https://f95zone.to/threads/tabletop-bornstar-v0-6-basilicata.75111/post-12163550

Based on your screen shot, the variable name that must be set to "false" is "various115"

There's not a lot of hidden "stats". However there are flags that are set false/true as you make choices in the game / view the various events and side stories / as the rounds progress.
The way it is built* however does not really allow you to go back and make different choices, so instead the way to see all the different routes is to replay from the start. This is understandably annoying to some players but for now that's the way it goes. I believe that the dev intends to put in some gallery/scene replay functionality in the future, but for now the focus is on continuing and developing the story lines.

*: The game logic makes some assumptions about "constant forward progress" - that is, the progression of the events is not implemented via a decision hub style design, so the game loop does not revisit the same code location and jump to see scenes. Instead there's a number of logic ladders that fall through lots of if/else to get to the next visible scene on a route. This makes it quite difficult to "cheat" via console to progress specific routes by manually setting flags/counters - there's a lot of flags than need to be set in certain orders/or before certain round numbers to keep going on different story routes. No judgement on whether this is good or bad design - it works for the dev and he is successfully making a cool game with his own coding style.

Devs should understand that most people don't want to spend hours playing their games if the mechanics are repetitive and uninteresting. And most of the game mechanics in this sort of games are; it's not exactly a criticism, I understand that most of the devs are amateur, aren't creating an AAA game. Even AAA games sometimes have boring game mechanics (go and recollect seven blue flowers and ten red gems), but devs should understand that player's time is valuable and shouldn't make them feel that they are wasting it by playing the game; they should understand that some players are just interested in the story and characters and want to know what happens next, and grinding game mechanics are just an annoyance.

Is the Itch.io version in the bundle the complete version and will it be updated regularly (i.e. shortly after a new Patreon version)? Spending 10 bucks seems worth it, then.

Wow, this game is amazing for the genre. I'm stunned.
I actually like the mechanics overall. I just hope there will be clear path(s) on replay to see all content (incl. story).
I'd also like to know if the itch.io version will get continued updates?

As far as I know the Dev has been updating Itch.io paid version in parallel with Patreon release. For example, the date of the current v0.6 release on Itch is 60 days ago, same as the patreon version. It just took a while to get uploaded here because there aren't any subscriber who leak the releases early and it is a while before he releases the update versions for free.

The current Patreon version is 0.65 released 5 days ago. Apparently a small update that only adds a few scenes with Summer, I haven't had time to play it yet.

Then let us hope for the best, currently the 0.6 version for Windows is no longer availabe on MEGA... Maybe we get the 0.65 instead now.

It seems unlikely, unless the plan has changed recently or it's added at the very end. Basilicata mentioned in an earlier post that the pornstar route would be lesbian only.

Wait, just found that post...

I get following your route-it's your story. Financially, the porn star route is going to be a windfall if he changes his mind. That's what 90% of people hopping on are probably hoping to see/complete. Some of the VN's and their patreon supports surprise me, this game is much better than alot of them that are raking in cash.

Great game. Enjoying it regardless of planned route!

Hi,
I still don't know if there are different routes, different jobs and how to get them and what the type "reserved" is about. Are there other types available ?

There are different jobs at the end, but you will still work as a waitress for the majority of the game. The different types (spoiled, friendly, reserved) do have some impact on money and the current end-game including MJ's willingness to do certain activities, but it feels very undeveloped. The dev sort of railroads you into aiming for the friendly route.
