Hey, thanks for providing some opinions on the game. I'm going to drop a little background on this project again, just to understand where I'm coming from.

This game began life as a project by my friend Jay. It had a much lower level of art based on the old redlight district program and mods. He had a lot of story written out and sort of built and was working on it as his passion project. Covid came along and he got very very sick. He was on a ventilator for about three weeks, and then he passed.

I took over this project with what little I could figure out and the few pieces of equipment I have. Not everyone has entire render farms. So for those complaining about grainy renders. I'm doing the best I can here. I have job, I'm spending time making these renders the best I can. If I had the number of supporters on patreon some of these games have, they'd be going through a render farm. This would help a ton.

As far as saying there are bugs, show them. Don't just say there are too many bugs. I have a tester, and we aren't seeing them when we post these updates. So, unless we know what happened, we can't fix them. Please show us where these bugs are that you're finding.

As for there being no revews for the game so far, feel free to review the game. I'm not why that's shady to everyone, when you have an opinion. So review it. Actually play the game, and give us a real opinion.

That's the best I can say for your comments so far.

If you are gong to make Wreck-It Ralph the main protagonist, can you at least add Vanellope von Schweetz to the list of girls? :p

You can't do anything? What version of the game are you playing? Android, pc? I'm not having any of those issues.

Go to the bar, talk to her, then go home and spy on her in the pool and talk to her again... I did it on Saturday.
Hi sir. I tried it but I think I got some sort of an error. Check below the image. Behind the day and time, there is some message in red. Maybe is that? Because I talked to her but it just a "hello". Thanks!

Like you, me too work too much, it means that I play to relax (when I can't find better) in some spare time and for this reason I prefer stable games.
However, even playing it I would not be able to review it negatively because I respect, at least until today, your work, your commitment and your education. When the time comes I'll play it and evaluate it according to my personal judgment.
If it can help you, until today for me, as a person worth 6 stars.
The most sincere condolences for your friend .
Good work and good day.

It doesn't break the game, but it's a puzzle either way.

What happens if you run a new game? I've added and fixed a lot and saved games might have the wrong info.

Sounds like leftover info from an old save. A new game is the best way to make sure you have all the new info and best saves.

Getting around in the game is annoying. Having to drag to move around on the map and phone just sucks. Labeling the navigation arrows and clickable rooms would help navigation.

EDIT: Adding a quick travel option could help too. The game asks you if you want to go the map when you go to the front door, so maybe you could put the options to travel directly to work or other places right there and be able to skip having to navigate the map.

EDIT 2: I did experience some bugs, but none of them generated error reports. One was navigating the map. A few times when I would click and drag to go somewhere, instead of the screen staying on where I dragged too it would snap back to where I started to drag. Another might have been in the shower. I clicked to watch the wife and it showed her bent over for a few seconds, then some image quickly flashed on the screen, and then the shower was empty and time had passed. I assume there was supposed to be scene there and the game just skipped over it for some reason.

i could write a troll-comment, but instead of it i just ask the thread opener to add the incest tag on top.
it was a little misleading. Good luck for your game... i won't play it ;)
