The actual MacOS version refuses to start up. The permissions are set wrong as: -rw-r--r--
The game runs smooth with permissions: -rwxr-xr-x
To obtain this, in terminal change the permissions as: +rwxr-xr-x (really, no joke)
Enjoy, the game is worth the little effort :p

One person posted about the number of clicks to get complete a save...I think the standard 'right click' to open that menu is fine but I noticed it also had an option to load, typically the save is the immediate and only option and then if you wanted to load you would go to the menu to do so...was this intentional? Also, why, once it is saved, are there multiple clicks to get back to the game?
Yes, we made a different menu than the standard RenPy one so there's an extra click to save. As for exiting the menu afterwards you can go through the RETURN buttons or just click the right mouse button to get back to the game.

The opening of this game is almost word-for-word the beginning of a story i read in the "Incest and Taboo" category on literotica.com i mean, exactly - the sister showing up, soaking wet, on a cold rainy night, ran away from home, doesn't have any clothes but the ones she's wearing, comes out of the bedroom after she showers wearing his hoodie...
I can honestly say that I've never read any story from literotica and that Twisting Vines is a complete figment of my imagination. That being said, a girl showing up on your door, soaking wet in the rain because she ran away from home is a bit of a cliche.

Who is her and is that scene in the current game version already?
Yes, the scene is in the game. That's Bridget.

No one has reported a problem before and I haven't encountered it in testing so I don't know if this is a problem with the link here on F95 or on the official Patreon site. But anyway, thanks for helping people start the game!

I wasn't saying i thought the game is plagiarised, just that it was similar.

You're right about it being a concept that's floating in the collective perverseness of porn fans - when i searched to find the specific story i recalled, i didn't find it, but i found about three others that begin more-or-less the same way.

I didn't go far enough to see if the reason she ran away is the samew, but i wouldn't be at all surprised.

Wish i could remember the title; i'd link it.
please give me a link to this story !

Can be, I downloaded it from F95 via the Mega link and got this effect, unfortunately it is not uncommon.
Anyway, the game made a focussed, uncluttered no-nonsense impression, which is avery good thing but a bit rare. Thanks!

I kinda feel this is missing a 3rd party game walkthrough which lets us do all the branches, I kinda dislike that we're missing scenes with one walkthrough or another.

I did enjoy playing through this and exploring some of the alternative paths. Thanks for sharing it as it is.

I have a question for the developer as he is posting here:
There seems to be some extra content available via some mechanism. When you look at the images there are further sex scenes I couldn't reach in the game (I was especially interested in Stefanie, which led me to take a look :) )
Is the idea that this content is made accessible only to Patreon supporters, because from looking a the source code it appears the shared version here is missing some of the code that could make those images part of the game?

I, too, also was looking at the code for Stefanie's extra scenes. It does look like that's behind a higher Patreon tier. I hope that I am wrong.

Grmzik - The game is in development yes, but we decided to make it a 10 episode game and every episode which is released is fully complete. So no changes will be done to the existing episodes.

rochester johnconnor - Stefanie is extra content, yes. If you check out our , or (please do, fans are always welcome) you'll see that we release each episode as Regular version (the one which made its way here), Extra version (which includes extra scenes) and Full version (which additionally includes original recordings of girl sounds for some specific sex scenes ;) )

So yes, Stefanie is in the extra scenes for which you need a higher Patron tier. However, if you can't afford that, when we release a new episode the previous episode full version becomes available to one of the lower tiers.

Again, join us on where you can find out more from others who played the game and see if you like what the extras have to offer. I'm also there, along with the rest of the dev team, to answer any questions.

Okay - thanks for explaining that. The downside of that approach is that in the regular game, the interactions with the characters that you can only develop in the extra content version of the story, can then feel strangely truncated and some of the options you can reach in the regular version like 'Find Stefanie' on day 3 then lead to nothing in a way that is unexplained. The player isn't sure if the reason is some bad earlier choice on their part, as the game doesn't explicitly tell you which girls you can't pursue successfully, because they are extra content. This could give the player a poorer impression of the games quality/content than they would have otherwise (if the complete game was played).

To confirm for anyone that is unsure, the extra content paths are not there in this regular version for any day. I could see from the code that there was extra content with Stefanie on day (episode) 2 aswell as day (episode) 3. So it's not just a matter of waiting a bit longer for the next release/episode/day for the paths in the previous day to become available. There is at least one other extra content path (Bridget).

Thanks for the clarification, Iskonsko_Studio . It would be nice to know what is extra content without having to dig into the code, but I don't know how to best present that information without breaking the fourth wall. (Also, I selfishly want the Stefani content.)

I do like all the choices and how little decisions impact the future play! There's a lot going on under the hood, and I appreciate your hard work.
