An error screen appeared when starting the game, and to continue I had to make a change. The original file is in the attachment.

Uploading the final release right now.
Same thing as before, except the game now ends with "the Corona Virus is over".

The pool scene was actually the first update of Chapter II, which has been deleted from the final release.
Because I want to re-do the entire thing bigger (HD 1080) and with better looking characters and game flow.

I have to say I quite liked the slightly wonky faces in the current instalment. Still, as long as you continue to use models which aren't seen in 1639 other games I'm sure I'll continue to be happy. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I usually compress and I mount with version 7.4.11. I compressed your game and when I went to compile it with version 7.4.11, the error appeared. So I went to check the version that the game had been compiled and found that it was version 7.3.5. I downloaded version 7.3.5 and tried to compile and the error continued. So... I decided to change. I learn things every day, and this information about versions, I already knew.

That's odd.
Oh well, as long as it's working now :)

Thanks for noticing it and bringing it up.

Just went to update the OP with the new links for bugfix'ed version, and some (I'm sure well meaning) moderator had removed my editing rights.

Hopefully someone will correct it soon so I can upload the final version.

Man I feel like a just wasted 4 hours of my life and I cannot get it back. I played because it said complete and my curiosity was piqued. What I found was a real need for coffee like the MC just to stay awake to watch hours of senseless dancing pixels that moved and expressed in weird non-natural ways. The story was OK, but even when it started to draw me in I'm left with blue balls and a cliffhanger. The models and graphics need much improvement. The animation at times is interesting but mostly booooooring, jerky and reminiscent of cheesy porn with the equally cheesy looped soundtrack.

I agree.
Which is why I planned on bringing the game back, but done right.

I really liked the idea of the weird statue influencing people without them knowledge, and the MC "creating" vintage porn and selling it for profit. And the way the Joob-Joob would talk to the guy in his sleep.

Like you said, the game needs better looking LI's (those were okay'ish in 2019 when I first started working on the it, but are VERY dated now). And smoother animations, and more sex. And it needs to be updated to HD.

Any other suggestions?

The voodoo idle is a unique plot twist but still in the end is a form of mind control which is cliche in this genre. The mystery about the dad is the real hook to your story and is what drew me in. Abigail is an intriguing character, Mel is too pushy for my taste and a bit off on her rendering for her face and expressions, Viola is mysterious, Yolanda is kinda of ugly as is and not because she is flat chested rather like Mel her face is strange and off, Fatima is an interesting character and if you develop her story about her gypsy heritage further that would be cool. I think Joob-Joob could be a better VN if you focus on the dad mystery and the relationships with the gals, cut the runtime of the dancing scenes and replace it with more sexy content, and fix the renders you could have a successful VN.

Pertinent and helpful. Thanks.

What did you think of the MC actually walking around town, as opposed to the sandbox style clicking on the map and being instantly transported there?
