Ahhhhh! The sandboxing is slog central, there's such promise here, feels like some kind of spiritual successor to A Spell For All, but that traversal just kills me.

Trying to figure out which words to click on to advance is a real pita.
I'm about half color blind so can't tell any difference if they are different colors unless they are really drastically different. Red and bold for example....
I made it past a few screens, but that was it. Please consider changing that.
Thank you very much
Best of luck,

Cheers

Hey there, right now the game is in an alpha state, the content in the game is limited so I would suggest waiting a while until I add more quests in. Also I am aware that progression can be a bit confusing and am addressing this in multiple ways for v0.12
Hi!
Sorry if that came out the wrong way, it wasn't meant as hostile criticism.
I'm looking forward to the update, because the progression and how to proceed in a game is core functionality for me.

Hoping to see us being able to control our dad plus our friend and his parents later on.

Plus some impregnation later on if possible.

Hey there, and I do plan on adding some content like this, but not for a while as I'm not sure how popular they would be. But thanks for the ideas and I will keep note :)

So I am a little lost. Mia, Mom, and Veronica are at 2/5 with no more love or corruption progression. I am trying to work on Ava. I have read all five books, My Influence level is 1, and it says I need to train more with the mentor guy. Only I can not find him at all, Dad's study is always locked, repeated exploration of the forest finds nothing new (the only area with "new" things to find). What am I supposed to do?

Pretty solid start, if it keeps up will be worthy of patronage.

Personally I would like more family members, but what can I do, it's what I like. But I understand that can undermine the story and balance of the game.

Got the following error when mowing Mia lawns
Error: <<if>>: bad conditional expression in <<elseif>> clause (#1): expected expression, got '<='

Also Librarian offered MC a job but nothing new pop out. I tried reading a lot to see if it triggered someting. I maxed out Intelligence but nothing hapenned.
Is it normal ? Did I miss something or is it a bug ?

Very minor complaint but hopefully also easy to fix - maybe it's because I'm mildly red-green color deficient (which is actually pretty common), but I can barely see the links to progress the story. I have to run my mouse cursor over the last few sentences of each page looking for the hyperlink. Suggest having that text underlined or highlighted better.

Other than that, a solid game so far.

The Influence v0.12 Released

Hey everyone, I am replying to this thread to let everyone know that I've just released a new version of the game.

It's been over a month since the last update, and I must admit that progress has been very slow as life has been very busy for me, and this update doesn't have as much content as I wished it to have. However I didn't want to delay a release any longer.

I expect development to speed up for the next few weeks, however unless there are bugs which need my immediate attention then I wouldn't expect another update for at least two weeks as I would prefer releasing with more content.


Version 0.12 Changelog:

- Added discord icon and link to in game sidebar.
- Fixed stuck in school bug.
- Fixed skipping prologue skipping Mia influence event 1.
- Mia influence event 1 is now triggered from Mia's screen and not visiting her house.
- Change requirements to trigger Mia's first 3 vanilla events.
- Fixed back button not working on firefox.
- Fixed Jake cafeteria event repeating forever in cafeteria.
- Player can now be flashed while working in general store.
- Added a guide on the sidebar which contains character locations, how to increase influence, strength, intelligence, willpower, and how to earn money, etc.
- Updated schedules for Belle, Mia and Ava.
- Added Author's Note screen on starting game.
- Added credit and changelog pages.
- Fixed influence button disappearing on Mia screen.
- Added library reading room.
- Added Gym reception, updated Gym images.
- Reduced Gym membership from $150 to $120.
- Reduced Swimmers from $150 to $120.
- Can now workout at the Gym with Ava.
- Ava Pool intro event with two endings.
- Can now talk to Ava at her home, in the library and the gym.
- Implemented Partial Zoe schedule.
- Can race Ava at Pool after completing her Intro pool event for money.
- Can now read with Ava in the library.
- Player can now be randomly flashed while reading in the library.


Final Release Notes

Thank you to everyone who has played my game, commented, liked the thread, pledged on patreon, and any other method's of supporting the game, I appreciate the support.

I am also very open to ideas for content sidequest wise, so if you have any ideas please let me know.

Zoe is broken in the clothing store Error: <<if>>: <<else>> must be the final clause

<<if $influence < 2>> However, you quickly brash the thought of revenge aside as you ultimately realize that your ability is simply too weak to break someone as strong-willed as <span class="zoetext">Zoe</span>, and you would rather not get caught in the process. <<else>> However, you quickly brash the thought of revenge aside as you ultimately realize that even though your abilities may be strong enough to break <span class="zoetext">Zoe</span>, the store is simply way too busy to attempt something that risky, perhaps an evening when <span class="zoetext">Zoe</span> is working? <<elseif $influence >= 2 && $period == 4>> Take a risk and [[Influence Zoe->zoe-clerk-influence1-event1]] <</if>>

"Come on honey don't eat with your mouth full." Replies your Mother.

After playing so many html games, I have found out that I prefer good story to naked pics/vids. Even if a game is still in early stages, it should have attractive story with as little as possible grammar errors, so that the reading is pleasant and I can enjoy playing every new update.
Some developers try to update only pics/vids + some story and check the grammar only once a while. I hope this case is different.
I wish you good luck!

P.S. I know punctuation in English can be difficult, i. e. in RenPy games. With no irony -> How difficult is it to change the first sentence to:
--"Come on, honey, don't speak with your mouth full," replies your mother. -- in html games?

Can you pick a porn star and stick with them? It's confusing as hell when characters change into three different people.

Sooooo.....yeah spell for all vibes. Which I am ok with. If you are going to follow someone follow the best.
Your choice of background color with your next link is. How do I put this politely.
It's just ass
I have bad eyesight. And the color palette is not helping.
My other gripe not so much complaint. I went into the folders and looked for content. There are a lot of empty folders. Which tells me you have several versions stacked up for regular release.
You could have given us one sex scene. BJ ok but give us at least one taste of ass.

Oh and if you want to avoid the "A Spell for All" vibe. How about using a different picture for Vincent than the same picture as a spell for all. Just saying
