Hello friends. I am aware that the launch of the new update is taking a long time, there are 2 main reasons for this;

1- A month ago I found out that my wife is pregnant :) and since then I have been busy with the hospital and some official procedures (I will have less time to deal with updates in the coming days)

2- I am making changes to the game's filing and update system.

In the new system I am changing some codes and files to make the game more modular.

What are these changes?

Now the player will be able to play the game by downloading only the files of the path he wants to play.

New characters, places, magazines, movies and Gates will be filed in the same way and will become operational when added to the game.

I wish you all a good day.

Why modularize 4 stat-padded pathways into separate downloads for the same character? No offense, but ... that's retarded.
I can understand if you're doing 4 different protagonists, but four different paths to have their own modules? Smdh at these new dev tricks

The reason is simple, I changed the filing system in order to avoid problems in the long run. The files I have for Routes are small but necessary to test the functioning.

I don't want players downloading files for every update for a character route they don't like, because I'm aiming to make these files really big over time.

The method is simple Download the main game, then download the path you want to play, add it to the main game folder and play. That's it.

Can you tell me which route is giving error. I will check it again. Thanks
I tried both the Dominant route and the Submissive route, and I also get a black screen on both scenes

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Routes will not work properly due to a small error in the file name. (Only for Windows)

The folder named “CharacterModules” under the game folder in the route you downloaded should be in the form of “Character Modules”, that is, you should leave a space between the two words and then add the game folder to the game folder.

I will re-upload the files

Edit: Re-uploaded links..

I opened a save and the bar that I had already unlocked disappeared and the unlocked conversations also disappeared.

can you share secrenshoots?
I thought I had sent the message along with the image and I just pressed f12 (the button that takes pictures on my PC), I use a program that lets me know which route to follow, sometimes because of it an error screen appears, and when I remove it from the GAME folder the game starts working again and this error screen only appeared at bedtime once and when I removed it and went back to my save this error occurred.


Ocorreu novamente.

I HATE sandbox games but this game does look good so i might give it a try. i hate seeing games i really like with alot of potential just to be sandbox : ( it would be better if all devs gave you clear instructions and stuff instead of having to grind 40 game days for a new event

You can't just play with the main game anyway. Download a route and put the zip folder named "game" into the main game folder. There is no problem in our tests.
