Exhibitionist will probably become a normal perk afterwards. It was always planned to be added but as part of an exhibitionist chain with a friend. I don't have time right now to do that chain but exhibitionism is a very common request so I added it like this for now until I can get the rest in.

Commando is also not an origin perk. It will eventually be obtainable by doing something like not wearing underwear for x amount of time.
Note that I said "currently" locked. I am aware that you may want to add options in the future.

Creampie lover is a bit more difficult. I can add it as a perk if Sammy keeps asking for it, but there is no way I can see to remove it. The obvious way would be if she then keeps asking to cum outside, but the creampie lover perk prevents that...
Well, redundancy with Broodmother isn't the only thing I'm thinking about here. There's also the matter of redundancy with Baby Crazy. Hence why I thought it might be a good idea to make so, unlike Baby Crazy, Creampie Lover CAN ask for Anal or Pullout. Just make it require an extra Speech Check to make it more difficult. (Though, I'm just spitballing. It's your game, so you can make your own choices.)


It works that way currently because you have both. Broodmother kinda makes the creampie lover perk redundant but is added for flavour. When you are able to get it without the broodmother origin it will then make a difference. Especially if you get it with something like the childfree perk. Sammy doesn't want to get pregnant but loves creampies so will have to keep on top of birth control.


It's how it currently works. When the option comes up, her choice puts a lot of weight in whatever direction she chose. But if she is too drunk/horny to get the option it only adds a minimal amount.
Oh. Shows what I know about game development.


It already has this, though doesn't factor in creampie perk (I need to remember to make sure it does). If Sammy is childfree she will tell them to make sure to pull out, if she is preg crazy she will ask them to come inside because she wants a baby and if she is broken she will ask for it rough.
I am aware of the different "Offer Yourself" dialogue already. I was just suggesting that, in the event you make it possible for Sammy to be a Creampie Lover without being Baby Crazy, the situation should have it's own dialogue.

I'm no game dev, but my common sense tells me it must be a bitch of a task to implement clothing system with so many options, specially in Ren'py. Btw, Sam_Tail is it ok if I ask you, are you a she/he/they? Because I have no idea how to refer when talking about you.

I gather that, among other additions, the new version will include the option to have Sammy desire pregnancy from the start without having to go into the game files to enable the console and figure out what values to then change with it? I did find it odd that that, and the related states, wasn't already an option in the cheat menu, given how much else was.

Thanks for making the game, by the way!

(Though since apparently there's also going to be an NPC named Trixie, it looks like I'll need to find another name for my PC in the new version.)

Decent amount of quality content always takes more than 1 month to produce. I hope people understand that (because usually everyone is used to monthly updates of crappy VNs)
Cath 22 of development. Too quick updates and they lack content and fail to satisfy while too long gets people upset that they have to wait.

The clothing does come with it's issues, but it is something I wanted to do right from the start so had it all planned before I even wrote a line of code. It has built and expanded more as the game develops further.

Broodmother origin will have that. And while it wont be in the upcoming release, there will be early game Emile events where depending on how you respond to her, it will effect your stats

Also no promises just yet, but I am hoping to implement a system within the character bio page where you can rename NPCs

Broodmother perk?
+300% fertility, baby crazy perk, creampie lover perk and can never ask someone to pullout.

aaand... can we hope to get start quirk that gives bonuses to fertility and creampie pleasure, but makes Sammy afraid of pregnancy and really doesn't want to get knocked up?
Something like a "fertile target", or a "breeding victim": +300% fertility, long ovulations, [motherhood fear perk], [pleasant&frightening creampies perk] and almost always begs to pullout...

it won't be very difficult to do, will it? and it will be really nice to see? please?

any chance Broodmother affects the time Sammy is grumpy after giving birth? maybe a faster decay rate because she wants to get pregnant again.

That's pretty much exactly what I'd want in a broodmother origin.
There are a lot of things to look foreword to in the next patch, but I think origins might be #1 for me.

Hey, long time lurker first time poster here. Use to lurk more without an account here.

Love the game Sam Tail. Found it during covid in lockdown.

Can`t wait for the next update. But having said this don`t rush it as a good update done well is best than short rushed content, like a few others have said here.

I hope to provide some constructive feed back, when I tried one of more recent test builds. Over this weekend.

I haven't lurked on all 92 pages nor read all 92 pages of messages here. That i can recall and defiantly not in one sitting. But few back pages I read before posting this. No one seems to have raised on here main topics i posting here.

Sorry for the long wall of text.

When starting as male character you can only get the male origin perk, (this makes sense to me from a story point of view. Plus worked great when their was only male option and no other perks etc for female start to choose from.)
But this feels lacking for character customisation options leads a bit to lack of immersion when i outline some my thoughts below.
When you compare it to female origin story.

I tried the female start option as I couldn`t see new perks with male start. As I really wanted choose some of these perks and see what all this talk is about.
The perks in question you can`t access in the chat with your sister Emile as a male in the start play through.
This I feels is quite a bit of a let down, for player choices and customisation/variety immersion etc.

Why can`t male origin Sam in the game have similar conversation with Emile. About how they feel about how they feeling in their new body, plus how it seems be affecting them via different hormones coursing through their brain chemistry, due to the change of gender?
Also due this missing we all miss the chance for more of background to male Sam`s old life. Eg old habits/kinks die hard and didn`t disappear from male self that existed before the car crash, these all can resurface again in Sam`s new body.

With the female start one can and in my opinion, use the option chat for perks with Emilie with the male start.
I`m talking about Emilie`s conversation with Sam about what nick name you use to call me for perks can still be had.

-Nerd: as male is easy to transfer

-Gym Bunny: some options ideas for why this can work listed here
option a; use go gym a lot. instead of doing weights cycling etc now do female cardio workouts
option b; use do heavy cardio like exercises eg long distance running trail runs marathons etc. To also men enjoy cardio classes too.

-Bimbo: had male fetish for slut-wear bimbo stuff, now due change body and chemistry compulsion now sub concisely to now want act this way. Even though Sam has forgotten a lot about past self. or something went wrong in transfer process unknow to all concerned
Also for Bimbo perk, perhaps Sam wasn't brightest in the family prior to crash as idea for you try out.

-Gamine street smart Sam before crash, to perhaps they dabbled in drugs and or prostitution for women (yes not as common in society but dose happen)
-Bambi: I think could just be copy pasted as can apply to ether male or female start without needing explain or change dialogue or explanation for such a trait.

-Exhibitionist: Sammy liked porn prior to crash of stuff done in public, to new brain chemistry as male they can`t help but want flaunt it and act way sub-conisouly due there prior life as male. Also some men like be exhibitionists too, but as women feel can better express it without fear of pervert due society double standards on body's eg male shows self aaaaa female dose it more accepted.(this is generalisation and not 100% case example)

-Broodmother: prior crash, impregnation or risk of pregnancy fetish. now manifests self in new body as wanting sub concisely. Due to Sam unable remember all past life. To perhaps quirk of hormones of the new body unknown to all, makes sam want do this. Perhaps Sam told his sister desire want to be a farther before the car crash.

Another option, is have one or maybe later on before Emilie leaves apart before first mission for you express how your feeling in new body. (as waiting to talk Emilie again after haven seems a bit long hike) This conversation makes more sense for Bimbo and or Broodmother conversations.
But also Emilie could say what was that nick name i use call my brother? Then when you hover over Bimbo or Broodmother text comes up "sis I don`t feel quite right is it normal for me feel this way as i not attracted men (atm se reply of wait what i have fight men off now as men hit on me.... due so recent woken up processing situation etc) All I want is baby inside of me..."
To with the Bimbo one "sis i don`t feel assmart as i use be able think faster eg takes me longer thinking of maths equations I just feel off. Like I should be able do this task/s easier. It`s taking me longer to think things through a bit." Due to this new body the issues are unknown to all.

I feel that it`s sad to hard lock so many of these cool new origin perks off From a male start. When one could easily change some dialogue or a perk description to affect a male sammy start. before the reporter mission or school starts. In the game.

The other perks seem in my take a bit of excessive time to acquire. Grind wise, I think the grind for some of the perks makes sense and wouldn`t be as much of issue for myself, if there was more main storyline content and or extra side story content. (note I respect and acknowledge this game is still in development. This is perfectly fine, and perfectly accetable for storyline and side arcs too for a game in development[side not again: i know your most recent focus has been on eg breast sizes clothes and other location etc again these are great for world building, as the code and lore will help out when, main story content is progressed forward.]
Plus also I think for a solo developer working by yourself your doing an amazing job progress wise! As you got more content than most other games with multi people working on them. So I hope I don`t come of as to harsh. I know what it can be like in IT as use be data archivist) The only reason raise the small content issues atm, is that in order to acquire some traits is quite a slog grind fest for my game style preferences and possibly others too. In sandbox mode with similar rinse repeat actions. without much else to break up the routine. (having worked in IT i don`t mind same few options as long as not always same option with exact same copy paste text, little varity helps keep myself others interested. but no one expects some write up 100 different version for each repeatable scene would be absurd expectation in any game)
On this note I feel perhaps maybe the requirements for perks one can acquire be lowered temporally till more content is added. For us players to acquire them, till more story content is in the game can be a good compromise i feel for players and both to your long term vision for your game, you wish to create.
Also for people doing multi play-throughs, it be nice maybe just to add a trait or two straight of the bat via-cheat menu. (I dont mind if this option isn`t added but again I wish give feed back so it not benfits my tastes but helps you cast a wide net for all potential players too for your patron etc.
Just an idea is all. It is after all your game and i respect choices and vision you have for the game, so that you create a game you enjoy to prevent you from being burnt out and hating your own project.

I really do hope something can be done as temp fix for female origin perk selection. Eg cheat option or text not as fine tuned. Then in the long term a solution can be done. To address this. In way you like for your long term vision of this great game of yours.

It`s that I find it odd to see the original idea of original game as male 2 female, go to meta game benefit of choosing to start as female to get perks you want. Note i agree the direction of female start option was best and casts a wider net for myself. But feel like core basis of this game from what I`ve seen got left out.

Also I have mixed feeling on even in female start option, with choice of one perk. As people can be complicated and have few of those perks. eg bimbo cardio bunny, cardio bunny broodmother, nerd broodmother, nerd cardio bunny etc combinations.
( I personally don`t mind being restricted to one choice as makes for trade off in a games context a bit of flavour and strategy and character background. But others I know in any game like to power game meta it all. Which why for those people i suggest not for my benefit but so you can cater to a wider audience with your net, allowing people add extra ones via cheat option. As some players like always have max stats in all fields as you and others have mentioned)

I just really dislike this idea of a hardlock of the female perks just cause you start of as a male, this seems go agaisnt the idea of this game from very start.

Apart from the hardlock issues i think perks are great way to go in this game it just they need bit more fine tuning, like not hard locking someone out.

This is more of a subjective topic and varies on each persons perspective. The grind for basic stats in game.
personally like to play any game where I feel like i not rail roaded into an excessive grind. I want to in any game not need to grind much at all. As I wish play a game like this more for story line content and perm choices i make which affect the outcomes.
I like to also play my games cheat free, and on normal mode difficulty.
But I find the stat loss in some category's a bit excessive to maintain ( I`ve lurked read last yr that you want some actions only avliable when low stats or mood etc. Which is fine in parts of new haven arc.) But the food choice option forced on me feels a bit breaking from game, the reason food gathering option breaks from the game is I player get warning Sammy is hungry away from home, this is fine. But where these vendors or somewhere else to buy food from at different locations for me pre-emmpt the auto food hunt before i get home? Eg outside school we got in game lore of food cart trolley vendors trying earn a living couldn't we find few of them. and long term wise perhaps have different vendors in different locations and times of business. eg some vendors open late 3am near all prostitute areas but ones around the hospital are shut at this time. But the fitness stat to gain from running in park from Sammy's hospital discharge bit tedious.

Also the mood and confidence stat can be perma ruined. With cycle of feed back in the game. I`ve been stuck in few play throughs with Sammy being raped in school setting bully's. Due shit feeling hits mood confidence increases sam`s chance of being raped in future so this feed back loop is harsh where a player can`t escape the loop without cheating. when i seen sam`s stats way raise them back up is going be a nasty grind which I dont feel like doing When I just prefer more story content. So one cant escape from this nasty feed back loop of rape bully events without using cheats. To get things back to normal within the game.

Other game play issues with perks.
with baby crazy perk, Sam still dosn`t ask for the man to cum inside her. even when she asks sometime she still says to pull out and or lets the man pull out. Even when said to cum inside.
Also sammy at times won`t offer her pussy to the client in bar or soccer boys or some random in school boys toilet.
It dosnt seem make sense to me sammy would just only offer a blow job. then wont offer anything further most the time.

Same issues with cream pies on differnt play though with that trait occurs too.

spoiler

The morning after pill dosnt seem to work for me when I used in Haven in gangbang with for mission.
Even after gangbang and when i tried replay it for hours effect before gangbang started.
note this is still case with any sex in haven can`t get that pill to work at all.
Nor did birth control shot work too in haven

Curisa question is there in game reason or coding issue as to why we can`t choose Sam`s last name. More so when institute offers a name change for a price. As in the game institute says its harder add some one to existing family, than create a new one seems odd can`t choose surname nor even as option for extra services.

All in all the version i knew wasn't complete when I played it which was fine by me as I knew this before i started a new game, I can see how much effort you put into it wow I cant wait to see it all done.
Like the scavenging, making drugs, and costumes too wow. plus other locations too. and other content you mentioned flat mates emilie returning, dancing in pub. this long delay is well worth it!

Side note I read that you disabled the dancing events this is fine. But I can`t for life of my find info on weather or not you also disabled the photographic content arc too? As i cant access it after conversation with photographer.

Long term wise will the photographer or someone else want make porn? As in video filmed then shown on projector in make shift improvised theatre? Reason ask this as we already going get glory holes around the area too. I wouldn`t find hard see the progression to this as well like post apocalypse adult theatre?
As the photographer has exp in cameras already with cross transferable skills to video. Perhaps event doing favours and buying equip from new scavengers arc and other people to acquire some these supplies plus maybe a location too? To some quests at different locations filming with others too eg dancers bar etc.

With the new bar revamp can Sammy have option without selling stocking and panties to just refuse wear them?
Also with click option to not ask buy replacements all the time.

Also i miss older version white school shirt with pink thread. Compared to new shirt design anyway we can have both designs?

Also in one play though sammy lost a clothing top and i couldn`t buy new placement same top in store.

With school bully's you could get help from soccer boys if friends with them, issue if loop starts too soon they can`t help you. or ask institute help out. As they want prevent you from hanging self off the fan.

But I don`t see how this could help with possible rapes not in a storyline, referring to ones outside the missions. I thinking of the ones randomly in public. ( i get feeling rapes be more common in future updates.)
As i like idea in pub atm, where patron approaches you near bar drunk something is about to happen but isnt implemented yet.
to i get feeling rapes outside pub too.
[side note never been able to get body writing pic in any play though with same at truck stop] I hope future update make this event easier to trigger now there`s a dinner and motel area. Plus hope in future update other areas can leave sammy looking like this or worse with different art work too]

Onto the more positives i always loved the 2d art work, as most 3d art work in games is quite horrid renders that's just meh or horrid. Plus i have a soft spot good 2d art work overall as my personal preference.
It`s great you sticking to your guns via not doing animations, as I think 2d pictures with your writing really paints and sets up scene and mood perfectly. As badly done 3d art or any animation done bad is just horrid and off putting.

Regardless I vote this game very highly and I enjoy it so much it made me want make my first post.
I vote this game 11 out 10. regardless of any issues or feed back given due how well polished this game is on this site. The fact you engage with people, and also how game is still in development as opposed to finished product needs to taken into account.
It would be wrong for anyone to be harsh on a game that is getting updates and status progress update posts. This wouldn`t be fair on you. As its not like you post I`ll deliver all this then drag it out for ages then only do a release two paragraphs of dialogue even though they did no coding or background stability fixes of known issues like some others I`ve seen do. then consider it a complete update.

Congrats on great game! Looking forward to next update plus keep up your awesome work.

Also Sam sorry for my long message before a few things I forgot to mention in it,

Two other things about the gender choice at start
is as girl you have no issue tlking your sister regardless of origin choice into buying you a thong.
Yet a chat dialogue is hard locked for Male origin. Couldn`t it go something like i want try it so there, in regards to my previous post on further perks origin options etc?
or go banter option i know you wear them sis so why you making this more of a scene.

in similar vain we never do find out about Emilie`s shaving habits for down stairs after the razor blade shaving convo.


tattoos from haven mission the back tat tramp stamp. shows up in shower all time at hom, plus half time in school showers both old shower block and new showers for pe classes/dance.

plus this tattoo after being cleaned up appears in some sex scenes all over the place.

On the note of haven make up Same issue with purple nail polish during sex scenes and also the dairy first pose where your name appears.

question will there be a beauty place later on for eg nail polish and normal hair cuts (i know we can change hair style at institute but it seems bit prices when also want keep same hair colour and no other changes done to your body.)

When you get pregnant from haven mission spoiler below

if you didnt get captured. though ether jump out or gangbang sneak in option. the baby your pregnant to lists it as tavern bar baby. client patron during your pregnancy.


With the soccer boys if your already naked from prior dares or just stripped off and went back to them after a shower. The scenes still repeat want me do a strip tease.

Also with sex options with boys, how come Sam can`t request next one to do her. instead of dialogue you talk paraphrased better hurry along or someone else might come along....
Could we have option say yes please to staying there for such a reason?

Also with soccer boys, why can`t Sammy if a former man empathise with them and be like well I not going take your money. In this screwed up world ecomony from you as make heaps from insitute etc.
But I`m going dare you do this stuff now. As when Sammy looses most time it`s just take of X clothes for rest of the night. or run around naked stuff. only once did i get a request for sex.
It be nice if sammy could get her own back eg request being eaten out, to I demand a fuck as winner. No more excuse of wearing you out.

As sammy always gets money from insitute missions and bar work, prehaps a money sink could be option for sammy to offer to pay up 200 or take on a dare not knowing what said dare could be. This could add more dynamic for even more outrageous dares limited just by imagination and programming limits too.
Along side with money sink option could be for Sammy offer help boys out slightly maybe not as in buy sex workers for erm. but hey diet of football and cheap booze seems keep them fit and health and also starving aspect...
Why not say go restaurant not my work bar have nice good healthy meal...

With boys winning a dare the randomness is from my play through skewed towards just clothes removal or running abound so boobs can jiggle stuff.
Also I feel like soccer boys dares seem bit too timid which makes sense at first this makes sense story wise getting to know a new person limits etc trust, but after they realise, if player makes certain choices and admits to being a whore to them with some of other convo dialogue doesn't seem to elicit much of anything in way of dares.(yes its good they freinds and not full on jerks to abuse Sammy but in banter dare manner seems to contradict this alongside with low randomness of a fuck dare.) The The boys not escalating the dares higher and higher. As the trust builds between them all and more sammy and boys open up about lives to each-other seems bit of a sharp contrast. I for one like see both depraived side in consensual way open up with them. whilst also keeping a human aspect to them all. eg boys offer help sammy in differnt ways as sammy helps them out too.

The friend of Sammys they get blow jobs from be fun join in on that too once you know about them banging your slut friend.


I once saw in one of my play through's soccer boys wondering at lunchtime joking about pimping sammy out for some booze. instead of them paying for some or making some themselves Sammy could be done for this. Instead of convo just left hanging as joke of she never get released back out.

in future could be cool for Sammy find boys there when shes at work or heck in way long term someone else like a teacher from school etc.

Another idea is before Emile leaves, regards of origin and gender you play she dosnt seem bat eye lid at clothing choices.

or give some banter about it too. As before Emilie leaves you got feeling of lots fun friendly banter, then it stops just like that. and talk about what do before school etc.


I can`t find or use the pool in school anymore unless your showing and pregnant. Nor can we use it of free choice.

Also some of convosations we over hear or are part of are they possible plot hooks, tips?
one sams friends at school hours by lake will be able meet them there?
another convo comes to mind where 2 non dancing girl friends for Sam appear saying looking nice you trying find a boyfriend.

Again great game you have here, take your time for the update and don`t feel need to rush it for sake of it. Plus regardless of mine or anyone else`s input stick to your dream for goal vision you have in mind for your game as moment you deviate too much from your goal dream vision, is the moment you still hate dislike it.

Looking forward to seeing rest of your good work for this coming update.

edit: forgot mention I`m surprised all the female origin starts let you walk outside completely naked, but no matter how far along or days passed ot traits gained when starting out as a male you cant leave house unless suitably dressed.
This seems odd to me and like a hang over from when game was male start to female game.

Also Heck one can make your clothes completely fishnet with no under garments yet be told non-fishnet bathers are deemed by game to be more inappropriate. Yet for male start character can`t wear this or that issues.

it won't be very difficult to do, will it? and it will be really nice to see? please?
Adding perks is not hard. Making sure they all work together takes a lot of time testing. So for now sticking with what I have and once confident in them all, will add more later.

any chance Broodmother affects the time Sammy is grumpy after giving birth? maybe a faster decay rate because she wants to get pregnant again.
The grumpiness is from the physical trauma and pain of giving birth. That doesn't really change no matter how much you wanted the baby.

General perk stuff
With the male perk, it is that way because most people picking the make start probably want events related to the transition and getting used to the new body/hormones and other related topics.

There will be a combo of a few things to compliment this that isnt ingame yet. Main one being the Emile prologue events where you will speak to her and talk about your thoughts/feelings on the issue. This will vary from player to player as some will want to play in a more bambi direction while others might be more "yay, womans body, lets go have sex". So perks will unlock based on your conversations with her to go with the male start perk.

But there is also a hidden stat called "body confidence" that is kind of like a timer. Male start characters start at -200 and choices with Emile along with living life, working out and otherwise gaining stats will tick towards the players body confidence. Once they eventually reach 0 they will lose the male start perk and will be able to pick up one of the other origin perks.

I also didn't want to give unique male start perks because I didn't want to characterise Sammy prior to game start, and less so the male version of Sammy. It is also oddly enough a lot more difficult to properly characterise the male because people then want so many different variations. Macho man start, gay start, egg start and a lot of variations between. So I decided to just let your mind decide and how you play determines this all.

excessive grind
Stats still need balancing. There really shouldn't be any grind and it should just be about having fun with the events. But I set stat degradation to be too harsh and it is generally unpopular

With cycle of feed back in the game
In some instances like in Haven, this is intentional. The game will kick you while you are down. In other instances I kind of don't see an issue. Stats are fairly easy to raise and if I didn' knock them down on a fairly regular basis then you will be entering every event with max stats. I have tried to make it so there are fun events for low stats as well and either I would need to make it really hard to gain stats so such events are played, or have ways to knock them down.

In my case there is harsh events hurting confidence, pregnancy tanking fitness and booze/drugs tanking intelligence.

The morning after pill dosnt seem to work for me when I used in Haven in gangbang with for mission.
Even after gangbang and when i tried replay it for hours effect before gangbang started.
note this is still case with any sex in haven can`t get that pill to work at all.
Nor did birth control shot work too in haven
Morning after pill has decreasing effectiveness the later you take it and I think has a 3% failure rate if taken right after sex. So possible yours just failed. Or maybe the build you are playing has it bugged.

BC shot from the doctor is going to be removed now that item form BC is ingame. It was just a short term solution until items were put in.

Curisa question is there in game reason or coding issue as to why we can`t choose Sam`s last name. More so when institute offers a name change for a price. As in the game institute says its harder add some one to existing family, than create a new one seems odd can`t choose surname nor even as option for extra services.
Sammys last name is so unimportant that I didnt see a need to change it.

Side note I read that you disabled the dancing events this is fine. But I can`t for life of my find info on weather or not you also disabled the photographic content arc too? As i cant access it after conversation with photographer.
Photo stuff got disabled by accident but since I also need to go over that to make sure it all works with new stuff I haven't fixed the issue yet.

Long term wise will the photographer or someone else want make porn?
Long term wise I am struggling with ideas on where to take it. But yes it is supposed to be porny/sexy stuff.

Also i miss older version white school shirt with pink thread. Compared to new shirt design anyway we can have both designs?
We will see.

Also in one play though sammy lost a clothing top and i couldn`t buy new placement same top in store.
Probably a bug in the version you are playing. Clothes/shop stuff works fine now afaik

With school bully's you could get help from soccer boys if friends with them, issue if loop starts too soon they can`t help you. or ask institute help out. As they want prevent you from hanging self off the fan.
Not sure what you mean by if the loop starts too soon they cant help. But I am planning a new soccer boys free route to deal with them yourself or if they are targeting Cass. Items are in and the Mechanic characters are in so it's just a case of finding time to write the events.

But I don`t see how this could help with possible rapes not in a storyline, referring to ones outside the missions. I thinking of the ones randomly in public. ( i get feeling rapes be more common in future updates.)
As i like idea in pub atm, where patron approaches you near bar drunk something is about to happen but isnt implemented yet.
Stuff like that will be part of the world event stuff that will be added with the 0.3 stuff.

[side note never been able to get body writing pic in any play though with same at truck stop] I hope future update make this event easier to trigger now there`s a dinner and motel area. Plus hope in future update other areas can leave sammy looking like this or worse with different art work too]
Again world event stuff. Though Haven update events already has this in.

Im crying internally because broodmother perk wont make it next release
You misunderstood my post. Broodmother will be in, the Emile events wont be.

tattoos from haven mission the back tat tramp stamp. shows up in shower all time at hom, plus half time in school showers both old shower block and new showers for pe classes/dance.
Yeah bug that has been fixed.

if you didnt get captured. though ether jump out or gangbang sneak in option. the baby your pregnant to lists it as tavern bar baby. client patron during your pregnancy.
Possible you were pregnant before going in?

With the soccer boys if your already naked from prior dares or just stripped off and went back to them after a shower. The scenes still repeat want me do a strip tease.
Good catch. I should fix

Also with sex options with boys, how come Sam can`t request next one to do her. instead of dialogue you talk paraphrased better hurry along or someone else might come along....
Could we have option say yes please to staying there for such a reason?
There is just so much here that can be done. Discord suggestion wanted to offer a train, someone else wanted a bukkake. Frankly with them the options are endless and I just need to find time to add them and in such a way that it doesn't totally clutter the UI

As sammy always gets money from insitute missions and bar work
Money is unbalanced right now and I give far more than needed so players can have fun. Once properly balanced, Sammy will be as poor as everyone else.

Also I feel like soccer boys dares seem bit too timid
Dares are chosen based on sex_agree checks. Virgin Sammy will only get tame dares while a slut Sammy will have all of them available to her.

I once saw in one of my play through's soccer boys wondering at lunchtime joking about pimping sammy out for some booze. instead of them paying for some or making some themselves Sammy could be done for this. Instead of convo just left hanging as joke of she never get released back out.
Booze with them is something I want to expand on with havens Viktor and the slum. But again need to get round to writing that stuff.

I can`t find or use the pool in school anymore unless your showing and pregnant. Nor can we use it of free choice.
Pool was removed. It seemed too silly to have a functioning pool where water is scarce. So I decided I will move all swimming/bikini events to the beach.
