Well yes, there is the "work around" with print Sc and paint, but still annoying to have to tab out to do it. Why can some games saves (usually renpy) be stored on a external drive in the game/data folder and be played from any pc you plug it in to when VNGine can not? Does the Dev decide where the save files including user data is stored or does vngine do that?
Ps. how much work would it be to port it to renpy in truth?

Yes, dev decided to store the saves there.
It is possible, but we won't to that.

It was a great update, didn't skip anything and it was long enough for this quality. What I'm missing is maybe the scene with Gaz and Bacon to go a little further (maybe a bj or something, you know, a real apology 
) Besides this it was nice to have mom have a 3some with father and son. Really tired of games where MC fucks every girl one by one and no 3somes or other male chars getting lucky. So kudos for this.
And the story and directing is great, even if in part one it could be a bit confusing sometimes, now you've reached the level of a good scifi TV Show with the added value of porn. If we were in a paralel universe where mainstream actresses would consider hardcore sex scenes as a normal part of their jobs, the tv show version of this game would be on HBO.
I'm not completely objective because I love time travel stories in general, but yours works fucking great, you also made the effort to add good music to it, and it matters to me, contrarily to a lot of other game devs not bothering to add sound.
The only thing not totally perfect (now is the nitpicking part) is the Engine.
Everything isn't as intuitive and instantaneous as with Ren'Py games. For example when you have to choose if Julia blows sleeping father while fucking son or not, I wanted to save before it, and clicked on the picture outside of the choice box, and then the choice disapeared, it just chose one of the 2 because I clicked outside of it.
It shouldn't happen, basically, for quality of life nothing should be possible outside of save/load or click one of the 2 choices.
So then I thought well, there's this "last choice" button in the menu, I will just click on it to go back. But no, it brought me back to a scene from previous update (I think) where you have to choose to cum on Nika's face or not (she's lying on her back in her bed if it helps you to find the scene). So I had to restart the game, and skip.
But skip doesn't just fluidly skip everything until the next choice, like Ren'py does, it's either not intuitive or possibly bugged, because at some point I was back at the Julia MMF scene, and I still had all the text displayed on the whole screen, as if I didn't stop skipping. So I had to save, close the game and reload. Maybe there was something to do, I tried clicking on all the letters of my keyboard, but it was faster to do what I did.
There should be no thinking to do, just copy what works from other systems.
And lastly, there's a bit of tearing in the videos, it was not super annoying, so maybe there's a "sync with monitor frequency" in the options to fix it that I didn't see, but it should be activated by default wether the option is available or not. No other game with video has this problem on my comp so it isn't because it's not powerful enough.
I realise this part about the engine was longer than the other, but it's just because it was more difficult to explain. Overall it didn't ruin more than 3% of my enjoyment. It's just quality of life stuff I'd like to see and maybe a few not game-breaking bugs to fix.

Hi, I appreciate your feedback, and since I made the engine I can give you some response to your remarks
1. Regarding the last choice, it does make a micro save every time there is a choice and practically you should be able to press it as many times as you want to go backwards until the start, ,and if it doesnt work like this then there is a bug. The whole point of this was to avoid making people having to make 5000 saves, same with the replay system. But hey, it's an old habit that come from playing renpy games where you save around every corner because you know that renpy is extremly unforgiving on that matter. VNgine is designed to be able to also jump back and test a different choice if you wish, but obviosuly some choices affect something way later down in the story.
Regarding skip feature. First of all, Ren'py doesnt even skip forwards most of the case, it only lets you skip things you have played. Please correct me if I am wrong, its intended not to skip sertain things in the game by design and wait for you to take a choice. If there is a problem with the skip its the first time I have heard about it now for a long time and feel free to make a report. What you are taking about "not stopping skipping" it sounds to me like you clicked the "dialogue history" button in the corner not skip. Skip can also be done by holding down shift FYI.
Regarding tearing in videos, this is heavily dependent on your hardware, it is a fact that some animations flow better than others, and it may just be the case with how the animation was designed, its not always perfect, its an area also where motkeyz is improving more and more through the updates. We've been able to play the game on total potato pc's and most of the time it works pretty well, but indeed it can be noticed on some animations more than others. It has nothing to do with the engine, its just a codec running on your PC as all the video is webm vp8.
So please if you actually find problems with the engine you can DM me and i will take a look at it if its something that needs to maybe be tweaked or if its an actual bug, because not everyone reports bugs unless its totally game breaking.
Thanks again for the feedback. hope that this clarifies some things.
/A

Are there any scenes with Bacon and Juli? Trying to decide if I want to let him help with photoshoot
Depends, i mean do you want it to be or not, thats what you should base your choice on
These are the choices we take in account in the development and when we decide events for various paths

This game is fun as hell. Bacons mom wins Cougar valley's best milf with Candice's sexy self just missing first place (she could quite possibly tie for first place but ive only seen her fully clothed behind the counter at the point im at). And Mau is quite possibly the best girlfriend ever. just need to get to some more nika scenes when i continue tommoro.... but from what ive played so far all I can say is thank you to the devs. My only gripe is Gaz but cant blame the devs for a character hitting too close to home. All in all 5/5 for the 4-5 hours ive played tonight... also love all the Back to the future references
Thanks for the comment, glad you like it. And for Gaz, give her some times, you will probably change you mind, best is to come!
