This "update" ends - for me at least - there, where the MC gets a visit from a lady at friday in the afternoon.
At the ABOUT-Tab in the main menue the version says 2.5, but for me it's the same as 2.0.
scenes were redone in version 2, now it is called 2.5. New scenes weren't added past where the old 2 ended. You have to restart to see the redone scenes
Well I'm about to dive in and try this new project out for the first time. But it's sad to read in the forms that this title will NOT have a harem end path choice available...but I'll still give this a chance. (I normally don't play single love interest stories...as I live that already in real life, and my fantasy is to have many or all in the end. )
Though, I would like to suggest to the developer that he consider adding future tag's to the gene section (most successful dev's do this right away, or learn the hard way and eventually add them later on). As well maybe include how some of the controversial content if present, will be handled...like it was done with the example Gene Section I provided below in the spoiler.
And, if your going to later decide to include any NTR content, or any of the other controversial content to your project, please consider mentioning it in your future tag's section. Many other new dev's learn later...that it can really affect a project fan base growth if developer's are not clear, or honest about that type of information (content).
(Controversial content = NTR, sharing, swinging, lesbian...are a few kinks that players regularly inquire about.)
History in this industry has shown that fans will likely abandon a project just because NTR was suddenly added without players knowing it was going to be a planned kink in the future. Even if an avoidable switch or an avoidable choice is added...it can still cause head-aches for a dev's bottom line, which ultimately can affect the potential of a title's ability to grow it's revenue stream...due to a shrinking fanbase. And most dev's want to keep their production alive with ongoing growing financial support.
Look, I'm listening and trying to make some changes that's all I can do. I still don't think that 38 year old Isabella is a hoe or a slut for having a couple of guys as booty call (in the past!). I've been there. She is certainly not a cum whore for thousands of guys as someone stated. But I will change that. Yeah, I get the Brooke hate and it will also be addressed. I think I'm being very reasonable, just give me some time. Thanks for the input, I honestly appreciate it.
Just a little tip as a harem player. If you want to avoid a lot of crap like that in the future and get players to stay in the game, then...
- Rule number 1: Never make a woman a escort or a whore OR a camwhore. Any romance, harem etc who hates NTR or sharing and they will not touch the game.
- Rule number 1: Never mention a woman's previous partners. That image we don't need and same thing that previous group is raising a shit storm.
- Rule number 1: Never bring a cheating ex-girlfriend into the game. Or if you do, give the player the option to make it avoidable so that her face doesn't show in any situation. It raises the anger level really drastically. It's an ex-girlfriend for a reason.
- Rule number 1: Also, never show LI's events with other men until the MC is in the picture. It goes NTR on many and that group marches out of the game. No one wants to see LI in bed with others in any situation. Also showing random people having sex is pointless because that is also hated by a large group. Or at least give an avoidable chance so it doesn't even happen in the background.
- Rule number 1: If you make a harem game and bring lesbians into it, then make those characters avoidable. A large group of harem players will not touch the game at that point if there are lesbians in the harem.
The easiest way to avoid a shitstorm is to not let anyone other than the MC near the LI. No woman no man.

didnt try this game before the dev made changes as from reading the thread it wouldnt have interested me based on the devs words i will likely try it with the changes i would like to know if there is any lesbian/bi/girl on girl stuff planned(including threesomes) planned and if there is will it be avoidable?

Yes, it ends at the same spot as the previous chapter 2. I just want to be sure that everyone has the save with the new choice in Chapter 2 (in the hotel room with Brooke). I know this is going to cause confusion, but I'm trying my best to address those issues. When I release Chapter 3 I will start with a developer's note to help those that only played the original Chapter 2. I think it should be pretty clear.
Sorry guys for any confusion. I appreciate the feedback in making this VN better. I like it way better too!
There is nothing new added after Chapter 2. All the changes are in Chapter 2. If you have a save that is earlier before Chapter 2, go there. The skip functions work great (CTRL or TAB) as they will allow you to quickly skip everything except where the new changes are. Skip will stop there.
I knew this was going to be a bit difficult, but it was early enough in the VN that I thought I could get away with making some changes.
THANKS! I struggled with Brooke for about 2 days, but when that idea hit me... I knew it was perfect! It explained everything without having to make massive changes everywhere. What I've found is that when an idea is good, it totally writes itself. I start typing and I can't stop. It's the complete opposite of writer's block; the ideas flow so fast that it's hard to keep up. That's what happened with I came up with the new idea for Brooke.

I'm new to this. I don't know how to change tags for my own game. Someone else uploads this and adds the tags. I have never specified any tags and I don't know how to...
I've been avoiding the harem topic publicly and PM'ing people personally, but since it keeps coming up: I honestly haven't decided, but I am leaning towards having it as an option. Again, optional! There will be no NTR, futa, incest, sharing or any extreme fetishes (and yes that definition can be wide ranging). Also all the sex is consensual (okay, you could argue that the sex clinic scene isn't, but I went out of my way to make that more funny and clearly she is very happy with the outcome) I'm trying to make a somewhat realistic game instead of a wild fantasy (nothing wrong with those wild fantasy games at all, that's just not this). But harem is something I'm warming to as I have become so attached to all the love interests. But again, as an option, because I also appreciate the monogamous route, and that was always the intention.

just got got done playing and as someone who would have absolutly hated alot of the things from before in really enjoyedwhat is there so far and look foreward to continuing the game. That for me does still depend on an answer to the question i had earlier regarding lesbian stuff as that is just as much a turn off for me as anything else
