Or at least rough sex would be nice.
Seconding the recommendation for some rough sex with Vanessa. Seems like the kind of girl who'd be into it.
Rough sex with Vanessa is definitely on the cards.

It won't be the dominant (no pun intended) aspect of Vanessa's route... but it is something players will be able to occasionally explore in the future (if they want to).

Nina is a qt but this update was really nice with Vanessa, crazy fun girl. Sophie scene was good but something is off with that girl and the way she acts.
So for me it's Nina, Rebecca, Vanessa.

If I were ranking right now...

999999999999: Vanessa

I kind of wish this was a space opera so I had the option to shove Vanessa out an airlock.
Vanessa has a great face, but an awful personality as character. Judge the boys by prejudices, has an unpleasant attitude, and that thing of "I´m lesbian", if it´s a joke it´s not funny, and if it´s real, disables her as a romantic interest in the game. I hope it will be possible to down her a peg or two during the gameplay in the future.

A possibility to name the savegames would be nice, with so many paths it's otherwise difficult to keep track of them.
Short answer: The chances of adding that feature is pretty low as of this moment. Sorry :(

Long answer:

I'll be honest. I'm not a pro at coding by any means.

The last time I tried to incorporate something "more" into the game, all the save files ended up becoming unusable and everyone had to restart the game. (And in the end, I couldn't even incorporate that change)

I was lucky that it happened so early in the development. I can't even imagine the nuisance it would have caused if it happened deeper into the game. But I digress.

I do want to add features like "naming the save files" and "replay scenes" in the game at some point. (For all I know, it might not even be that hard for actual programmers to do)

But after the save file fiasco, I'm afraid to try anything that I'm not a 100% sure of.

Not to mention, I barely have any time between the script and storyboard as it is.

So, these "enhancement" aspect of things have very low priority as of this moment.

Maybe, if the game garners enough support, we can hire a professional coder.. but even that's something entirely upto Jachu (the artist and creator of Underground Studio) - as we mainly need to prioritise on the visual aspects of the game first.

Short answer:
Short answer:

Then just don't worry about it.


Long answer:

There are a whole bunch of modders here on F95 who could probably implement this relatively easily.
I'm just pestering DarkAssasisn with a request for it, because he has already done the walkthrough mod.
Maybe you can learn something from the mod (code) later, if DarkAssasin can and will implement it.

My solution for games that need named saves but don't have the option - particularly like in this one where you're going to have one save (or multiple saves) for each LI you choose to pursue - is to rename a save page for each LI. That feature is built in to Renpy, so the devs don't have to do anything except not disable it. Right now I have three pages of saves: Page 1 is saves at choices I thought I might find important later and ends with the choice of whether to ask Sophia on a date. Page 2 I renamed as "Sophia," and Page 3 I renamed as "Not Sophia" (because I'm really clever that way.)

Really nice update again, I was really impressed with the animations. Vanessa is slowly growing on me and the number of choices in the gym scene was a very nice surprise and a welcome one. Another big surprise was that Sophia had the first sex scene in the game, but then again, it's easy to forget that she has been hanging out with the MC for over a month now so it makes sense when you think about it.

Still, the game needs more Nina :love:. I know I'm biased, because she is my fave, but it needed to be said.

Wait. What gym scene? I don't remember MC ever going to the gym.

I meant the other meaning of the word gym of course, so basically the basketball court. I think it qualifies for a gym, at least where I'm from, but yeah, I probably should have said basketball court.

The solution to that would be a "playa" path, where you try to mess with every girl in town, and lie to each one of them constantly.
Since this game isn't suited to harem (and devs thankfully aren't going there) It has to come with a strong backfire possibility of course, which usually piss off players/customers because people just like to have their cake and eat it... but that's a decision devs are gonna have to make, personally i would enjoy a "manwhore" path that doesn't get a happy ending.
Or a FWB path with some at least. College is rife with that. There is monogamy and craziness both.

Hello everyone,

If some of you probably know, today we posted polls on Patreon where you can somehow review our latest update. I figured out that it is important to come to know the opinions of all of our players to develop our future updates even better. As you know, every poll is available to vote on only on our Patreon but this one is an exception.

If you have some free time and already played in the latest update - feel free to answer the questions in our short questionnaire. It takes less than one minute to fill it out!

Link for the questionnaire:

Thank you so much for your time - it means a lot for us :)
