dude game have 4200 renders and 50 animations. Is that little in your opinion ?
I mean, if its spread out over 27 paths then yea I do.

Just straight up not going to replay a game 20 times to see everything. If a game is stellar I might go through it twice to see another route. When theres so many paths and it could take several updates before one you like is worked on...if feels like nothing is ever added. The thought of having to have 15 saves all on different paths saving and loading to try seeing new things makes me want to die.

As a final product it might be good to play, but doing so while in development is horrid trying to navigate it.

Good game, i like that it has several routes and the choices are useful. If it progresses well, i will consider supporting it for a few months, but i would prefer not to do it on patreon.

Are you using the 0x52 URM MOD by any chance? If so, I noticed that causes the same issue with every game I add it to. The firewall sees the connection coming from the game's exe but it's really from the Universal Ren'Py Mod (URM).

So I like the story of the game, I like the characters, and I really like that choices matter, those are always most important things for me when I'm looking for a game. That being said, like others, I do have some concerns for the future and will wait till this game is finished at this point. There are some games that have multiple routes that all get worked on in each update, so player for every route gets content in every update. Right now with the choices I've made, I haven't seen much content in this update, and I'm not interested in making multiple saves and trying things I'm not interested in. If it's like that now, how will future updates be when the branches keep expanding out, and so many options and paths to navigate through.

I would also say your responses is concerning for me, and makes me question if you will have the ability to continue this games. saying "do you want this game to fail?" and dismissing legitimate questions/concerns is a bit of a red flag. No one bashed the game or said anything unreasonable, and while I get this being personal because it's your baby that you are dedicated and working on, but you need to learn how to handle constructive criticism and disappointing comments. That's part of the process of making something and publishing it. You have a beautiful and highly potential game in my opinion, I would love nothing more than for this to be a major success, but that doesn't negate that it's far from perfect. Best of luck dev

Also guys does some of you want this game to fail ? I mean I put a lot of time and work in this game but so far I get mostly negativity I mean trolls are the loudest people here. I can very well stop posting here.
I think people who is ranting here about branching just got used to kinetic harems where you fuck all girls and see all scenes in one playthrough, they probably don't want to memorize multiple paths/saves. They are loud, but not majority.

i really hope it won't discourage you from keeping it up and sticking to your vision.
Personally I like your game, it has it style, and in some way it stands out of many other games here.

Dead wrong. I refuse to play kinetic novels, I love having meaningful choices that dictates the outcome of the game. What I don't love is waiting nearly an hour for a game to download, just for there not to be much content on the path I've chosen. How will I know next update will either, do I keep downloading and hoping my branch has content, and be forced to go on paths on don't want to have content? The more the separate paths keep branching out, the way the dev is not working on all sides per update, it's fair to question how the game will work. Some people may want to see every scene with every LI, some people like me are picky and only care about certain ones.

Plenty of Devs have "killed off" or have a LI "move away" because there were too many branches to focus on and cutting down LI's, and we have also seen Devs get so in the weeds in the branches, that they get overwhelmed and abandon the game. Making observations, asking questions, and providing feedback (both positive and negative) helps Devs with game development and might enlighten them on how to improve their game. Discrediting things you don't like, and chuck it up to "trolling", isn't the outlook you should have

Oh, I found content(although not very much). Here it turns out that you only had to choose the options marked in green. The rest either haven’t been done yet or don’t initially lead to anything.
Well, I quite liked the cosplay with white hair. It’s a pity that this is only cosplay and not her permanent appearance.)
Overall, beautiful renderings, and the plot development is promising. But there aren’t enough choices yet, and the ones that exist are too confusing.

everyone here fail to realize I am busting my ass working on this and what I get in return is only complaining if you fail to realise how this kills my will to work then you don’t understand creative process. Also this community support people that don’t give a fuck even to reply. And work for five months to produce what I did in one. Like I said 600 rendera times 20 minutes per render that alone is about 8 days of continuous work and where is animations, programming, sound design and to get what people shit all over me because their path is not the one supported atm. Or you didn’t get much content for it. And 0 patreon increase and patreon base right now is so fucking low I can’t even pay for what I used to make it. I don’t know how not to get disappointed in this community…

You did something wrong... There is a lot of content with Abbi, half a dozen endings and sexy content... It all depends on your choices... Abbi is fantastic in every scene... And the butt spanking part is very beautiful with freshly washed wet hair ... Just saying...

Um, well, Abby, it’s really okay. But only one choice works for me; in all other cases it leads to nothing. And, alas, I didn’t encounter any scenes of flogging, although I tried all the answer options. Maybe there are some other triggers at the beginning of the game that I don’t know about and that somehow affect the result?

Well, there will always be dissatisfied people. The main thing is not to confuse those who like the game and want it to be better (well, from their point of view) and those who don’t like fundamentally everything.)
So don't react so strongly to negative comments.
We appreciate your efforts. Do not despair.)
Although I don’t really understand your desire to stay on Patreon. It is unstable and has been wiping out developer accounts a lot lately. And now many are switching to Star. And in the end, no one forbids being on two platforms at once.)

why do people complain about file size? 1TB HDD now is cheap for vn games will work fine. if your storage is full try deleting your old games or games that have out of dates or even better deleting your porn videos ... lmao


music folder in the HQ version is about 600MB-ish
I think it's normal because this game has sounds and music in it (maybe the devs need to use compressed audio? "don't know what it's called"

advice to devs... "do what you like when making games"

So far, I have found three Abbi endings with sexual content:
Studio - ends in bed - or runs away
Wooden house - Butt spanking
Wooden house - Kitchen table and at the end Abbi is "naughty"
There are other versions, but they are not finished routes yet...
These determine your decision at the beginning of the game...
Faithful husband - or you fuck the doctor girl...
Halloween - strict father or lenient...
What do you choose with Emma... It's up to you...
On the way home in the car - your choice... More options...
I can't count how many possibilities there are in this game, and the "adventure" has only begun with your first daughter...

I'd say that most people in here just know the shitty truth that 95% of games started never get finished, and to be brutally honest you are a new dev, the game has been worked on for less than a year, and havent proven anything to the adult gaming community of being able to tie everything together and get a game completed.

There are a number of devs who have extremely long dev cycles for updates (like 8+ months) and still have solid support on patreon and have a strong fanbase because the have shown time and time again that the updates are worth it and the games they make are worth it in the end.

You are a single dev in an ocean of devs all trying to get support and money from the same group of people. Its not something that happens overnight, and takes a shit ton of effort and time to build up the trust from the community that you will deliver what is promised.

I'm not accusing anyone of anything, just, again, providing information.
Are you using the 0x52 URM MOD by any chance? If so, I noticed that causes the same issue with every game I add it to. The firewall sees the connection coming from the game's exe but it's really from the Universal Ren'Py Mod (URM).
Yes, that's URM.
It checks it there's an update available at startup. You can disable this in URM's settings.
