Real nice introductory post! Just so you know, the patreon link in your post has a semicolon after it which is producing an error 404 when you click it. Very simply fixed obviously for anyone who looks and I'd expect most will, but might be worth editing the post to fix it just in case. Obviously want as few barriers to reaching your patreon page as possible.

Thanks for catching that! It's been fixed.

Wow...the MC isn't so much a douche canoe as a douche cruiser. Sure we can makes choices in the present but he was awful in the past.

Douche carrier? Douche tug? Anyway...

The MC being kinda fugly makes it easier to play him as a douche.. But it also makes it difficult to play him as a good guy too...

No argument there; reminds me of Rocky at the end of a fight mixed with Odo from DS9. A face that's not fully formed and been beaten all to hell.

No shit! His past character was thoroughly irresponsible and unlikeable. It does seem, though, that he is maturing as the game progresses.

But I have a couple of personal problems here. While I want the MC to become more responsible, as a player of porn games, I still want him to bang everything in sight. Oh well... That and the fact that the girl he has most wronged (Naomi) and needs to make amends to, I find to be the least attractive of all the girls. Again, oh well... :unsure: :D

Hey all, Red Dust here.

Really appreciate the support I've gotten from everyone. When I started developing this game, I had the goal of getting one person beside myself to like it--imagine how pleased I am that quite a few people seem to be enjoying it. Whether you like the game in its current state or not, know that I'm taking your constructive feedback into consideration as I strive to improve.

The first chapter of the first game is always going to have some mistakes. Regarding poor MC, he was just unfortunate to be one of the first characters created. One thing I think I'll do is show his face less. That way, everyone's blood pressure won't spike as often . And regarding Damon, he's MC's best friend and has an important role in the story, and I hope by the end of this journey you'll love the character as much as I do.

Of course, it wouldn't be a proper developer post w/out plugging my Patreon:
You must be registered to see the links
. Your contribution really helps in developing the game. Also consider joining the Discord:

, where we're building a friendly community of people who love good story-driven visual novels.

Love you all,

Great to see devs taking an active role in these forums. I really enjoyed your game on several different levels, and I think it has great potential. But alas, I'm sad to say I'm also one of those who find it very difficult to play due to the face of the MC, to the degree where I don't think I'll go on with it. Will you ever consider changing it?

If the answer is "no", then I can appreciate it, and I will still give the game a high rating and wish you the best, and lots of Patreon support. But I think the answer to this question can make a big difference to me and many others in regards to our future support of your game.

Best of luck and thanks for the great first release!

Based on feedback, I've created a poll on Patreon r.e. MC's appearance:

While I don't feel strongly about it one way or another, I want everyone to be able enjoy the game and story, so please let your opinion be known in the above. Fair note: this is not (yet) a commitment to do anything, just an assessment of folks' views.

Voted. A lot of us don't like it, but, it doesn't affect gameplay for me. To me, as I've said a lot of times in this post, it's just the classic Roman features. But, maybe I'm just justifying it so it doesn't bother me. lol

I'm one of the votes for "it negatively impacts my enjoyment"... And a simple suggestion is to show the MC's face a lot less... A LOT less... I would be happy to never see his face again. He is unattractive and, in these games, people usually want to play a well hung and somewhat attractive MC. Whenever I see the MC's goofy ass face I find it jarring, it takes me out of the story a bit. Obviously I realize that's just me but wanted to offer my two cents.

I voted, but I don't mind his face. It's the over moussed hair that irks me.

However regardless of the mc's hair, I really like this but I just know it's gonna hurt if I stay true to my man slut ways. All the LIs are really different and good. So only picking one is gonna suck on the 1st playthrough especially

Ada. Just Ada. But, make sure to keep Damon from getting close to anyone. No fun time for him. Ahahaha
