Game is a total grindfest. Talking gives you like 100 options, but you can choose 3 of them, leading to nothing.
Takes forever to get anywhere. The sandbox is made very bad and makes a grindy game even more grindy.
Rollback doesn't work at all, so if you choose a bad conversation option you are stuck with it and rollback just repeats the choosen bad option until you run out of conversation with this char for the day.

Thanks for warning (y) I will fix it soon.

You actually get 3 conversations every day because conversations give "Relationship points", so how do you expect the game to progress if you collect unlimited points? Only one way. The game will return to the "Harem" game that has been created hundreds of times before. There will be a "Harem" option in future updates but there will have to be some restrictions to prevent the game from becoming just a "Harem" game.

I was canceled rollback. I will look for it and fix soon.

Please continue to criticise our game, for better or worse. This is the only way we can find the best for everyone.

Best regards...

maybe you could set the game to highlight the effects of a choice after you've already selected it once or twice so that you don't have to try and memorize everyones conversation topics everytime you interact with them. the system can be fun at first...it's just later on after youve farmed her relationship points a bit and you're still having to try and remember what each character likes to talk about that it becomes tedious.

upper right corner, left of the schedule
Loaded a save to test that, but it seems to have bugged out.

I was given all the tasks again, but repeating them was not working because they were already done?

Not sure what happens.

Going to delete the folder and re-extract to see if I can duplicate in a new game.

I see, there's a problem with those "Special Talks". I had no error, like you, when I tried to see what love interests like and dislike, but I was sent back to a previous state, with less money and less points. So I stopped playing, as I didn't feel like doing all the grinding again. Let's hope next updates will work better.

Thanks for your reply. I can add a few details if it helps. I was talking with a girl at the gym (I don't remember if it was Diana or Dolores) and when I left I saw that I had to redo the recruiting task at the gym. But it wasn't like at the beginning, since I had more gold and more points than when I started.

Here are all the "conversation" outcomes for: Cassandra, Martha, Dolores, Penny and Diana. I haven't done any of the guys cos idc about them really. That being said, the way you gain relationship points feels crazy soulless now, there's literally no dialogue at all, no reasons as to why these topics are good/bad with the character etc. Just a grindfest with 0 payoff - and as it's been pointed out earlier, the special talk options don't work at all and bug the game, so the new sex scenes are locked and the current ones show absolutely nothing anyways (not even a fuzzy outline of Cass's dick in the shower!).

This has a lot of potential but its current state is unplayable at worst and boring at best. Now that what I assume to be the main feedback loop is in place though, it's in desperate need of some meat on its bones. It needs a good handful of scenes and some real dialogue, at least for when you select a topic for the first time (I'm more than fine with the neutral responses being copy/paste amongst all characters, but they should have unique responses for the ones they like and dislike, really).

The roster of characters is fine, no need to add anyone else and pad it out, it's time to make use of these relationships and have them get busy!

Hi.
First of all, thank you for your sincere opinion.
I have already added a few features that I think players will not like and that I do not like too but they will be very effective and fun in the later stages of the game. This is because the game will have a tremendous variety with future updates. Therefore, if I can't organize the features and code structure now, it is not possible to keep such a variety of events, situations and statistics in future updates with my current code knowledge.

Some of these features:

TALKS:
Currently all characters give the same answers (I hate this too), but in future updates I will add their own unique comments, especially on topics they love and hate.

RELATIONSHIP POINTS:
At the moment, earning points seems worthless because you get points from all the characters you talk to and the points you earn are safe, but in future updates, these points will start to decrease by features that will be added to the game. Especially at this stage, it will become important to talk about topics that the character you are talking to likes, as it will give you more points than usual.

PORNOGRPHIC SCENES:
I think it's important for the game mechanics that you can't have sex with everyone since relationships are still in development. And I know, it's not a documentary and players want to see fun things, so in future updates (one I'm coding right now) I will add features, locations and characters like Teasing, Fuckbody, Nightclub and Hookers.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
I'm currently working on updating the game, fixing bugs, and organizing and adding content to the website I just set up for our game.

For those who want to check it out, our game's website is

Thanks for the reply! Basically confirmed what I was thinking, it's only very early stages so a lot of this is groundwork, which I appreciate being done first instead of being added later and breaking the game lol

I apologise if any of what I said came off as rude, I had just spent ages figuring out everyone's conversation preferences and was a tad frustrated haha.

Glad to hear that you've already got plans in place for a lot of my concerns though. I very much look forward to future updates and how this shapes out, it's very ambitious and will be great if you can pull it off! (Also looking forward to eventually seeing Cass's third leg, too)
