Unity Venus's Club [v9.5.0.1] [Disgruntler]

[MisterL]

I like what I see and hope there will be more!

Adult management games are rare and good ones even rarer. The first impression for a demo is pretty good and I really hope you will decide to stick to your project and develop this game.

Suggestions for improvements:

- I would like the "planning"-screen bew more like the "work"-screen. Selecting rest or work via drag-and-drop for each girl would be a better and quicker solution, especially with a growing roster. Maybe special buttons for "all girls work" and "all girls rest".

- The list of girls while working should be sorted by energy and the green font (without outline/shadow) on the girl pictures are hard to read (btw. 1 or 2 decimals should be enough^^)

After installing the linked codec from the win-store I was able to see the videos (sometimes one wasn't playing if all booths were full). Regarding the format of the videos I know many other devs here using the webm-format, maybe this would be another alternative you could check out.

Good luck with your project!

PS.: Any news on that bugfix? I want to hire those two girls that you need rep to hire and my rep isn't increasing. Also, you should ask a moderator for a game developer tag.

My Reputation increases without issues though

 

[Xelnous]

Please keep working on this. I love brothel/club management games.

I downloaded the game ~24h ago and still have the bug. When did you donwload the game, since it is working for you?

a bit more than 12 hours ago apparently, it was before Tobe announced the Bugfix I believe

EDIT
Just noticed...
4th+ booth is also not displayed... yet active
Everything after Foreplay booth (Oral+) is not displayed

Summary... most Updates only show the 1st Level as purchased exceptions have been mentioned before

 

[Tobe]

Thanks for all your replies. I'm happy to see that people like my game!

Regarding the not gaining reputation bug, it should be fixed (along other things) in the new file available to download. I'm afraid that you'll have to download everything again, although the file is now a bit smaller.

Concerning video file/format, it is quite complicated to keep a relatively small file size and have some good quality videos. So I'll ask you guys: would you like higher quality videos at the cost of an increased file size (and maybe a slight loss in performance) or that I keep trying to balance quality and file size? Increased file size could easily mean doubling or more the current size.

I've read all of your remarks/suggestions/ideas and I like most of them. Expect to see some of those in the next update, along with other ideas I already had and many bugfixes, as it is clear there are still a lot.

Speaking of updates, I think I'll try to go for a two weeks schedule for updates. That means I'll try to post an update for the game around (preferably exactly) the 15th of this month.

 

[MisterL]

Ok, after downloading again I got the version including the hotfix. Was able to finish the available content and train my girls
Can't wait for more...

 

[Ardorin]

Hi. I played again from the beginning.
Now I can hired Asa and Madison, but is not necessary have the reputation over 20/30 for hired the girls.
And the clients are rich or mega rich (before poor or very poor) so more money = more easy to finish . I think the game difficult level now is very easy before was very difficult. So in the middle is the equilibrium.

Great Job. Thanks

P.D. I prefer good quality videos.

 

[Polip1339]

Great job i love this type of game, very nice gameplay loop Once i got the hotfixed version with the videos the game got a lot... harder

I was also developing a management game but never got around to finishing enough to release it, but here are some ideas i though you could also use.
Some ideas:

1. Gallery with all the videos, maybe in the future you could "unlock" videos in normal play and only view the unlocked ones. It would give players some additional video hunting goal
2. Some incentive to have at least some girls working each day? Maybe loosing rep? Right now its easier to use up all their energy and then rest them all for 2 days.
3. The "rest all" and "work all" buttons would be awesome and pretty easy to do quickly
4. Improvement on the buttons could be dividing girls into groups( group 1 rest, group 2 work then switch it up)
5. Button to skip days till all are 100 energy?
6. The planning screen rework is needed and will be more pain the more girls the game has.
7. Some other games had girls packs so that you download the main game and then the actresses you want, this could help with big file size?
8. Also it would allow outsourcing creation of girls
9. Some automation:
   1. After fully upgrading all condoms,drinks, food, stim a new upgrade that could automatically give client what he wants
   2. Upgrading booth to auto extend
   3. Upgrade to auto rest girls with energy below some value (10?) unless specifically manually set to always work
   4. Upgrade to auto work girls with 100 energy unless specifically manually set to always rest
10. Upgrades for:
    1. Income,
    2. skill gain speed
    3. More energy updates
11. More information for the player:
    1. Display money when buying upgrades/policies/ girls I didnt notice the green border till i was buying the last upgrades
    2. After money and rep display change since last day (for example 5000 (+3000) )
    3. Some indication when the client likes as a finisher
    4. When picking up a girl add a border to booth to signify if she has the right skill (the greener the border the better her relevant skill)
    5. A bar showing time left for a girl in a booth
12. Cap skills at 100?

Those were ideas for now here are ideas for the future:

1. Someone mentioned it already but a MC with skills affecting the girls work
2. Interactions between MC and specific girls
3. Achievements ( everyone likes them, right? right?)
4. End game goal (thats what i struggled with in my game)
   1. Debt repayment (basically gather X money before day Y)
   2. Competing clubs (gather X rep before day Y)
5. Quests for girls, (for example abigail doesnt do Anal no matter her openess unless you have enough intefactions with her)

Possible bugs:

• I seem to be loosing rep sometimes, don't know if its a bug. Its not buying new girls i have all of them
• With multiple booths videos sometimes dont display, same goes for the money numbers, couldnt notice a pattern since so much stuff happens with 6 booths
• Sometimes starting a new game you have the effects of upgrades bought previously but you can still buy them again and weird stuff happens, restarting the game helps

Ok thanks to Evangelion-01, I might have found a solution that does not require me to reupload everything for the third time.
Try downloading and installing the codecs pack from this:

You must be registered to see the links

or, if you know how to, just download and install the h.264 codec.
After that, try starting the game again. This should hopefully solve the problem and if it does, tell me and I'll add it to the OP.



thank you for your help the game has launched a video, waiting for new updates more girls and content

 

[Evangelion-01]

• I seem to be loosing rep sometimes, don't know if its a bug. Its not buying new girls i have all of them

You loose Rep if a client leaves unsatisfied... maybe you had no girl at hand to provide service or her skills lacked

 

[defd©™]

There is a real cast. The girls in the videos are always from the same actress, with a few exception (when I couldn't find a video of a specific girl doing a specific action, I used a generic one).

That's why I don't like real porn games
when there are the most exiting action scenes the girl is not the same... so this is not my game.
Also i do not like real porn scene when the actress do not want show her face
it is very important to look at the face, eyes, body ad expression of the actress during the sex scenes that is why I prefer games with sim-actress.

Good luck

Good idea. I'll certainly add smokes in the next update.
Thanks for the bug report, I found that this problem exists for what you reported and for other as well.
Damn that is a lot of bugs...

It cdoesn't worked at least for me, but thx anyway.

 

[Sesinho]

A couple of things to say:

-Game gets serious once you have a couple of things unlocked, and boooths.

Once you have 3 booths, and 3 finishes, game turns into a lvl30 tetris. Choosing the right thing in the right time, and trying to give everyone the preferred finish requires some focus. Porn steals a lot o focus.

The planning menu becomes tedious cause you can only manage 1 girl per screen and you need 2 clics for every girl.

Reputation system must be broken, i have the issue where i get it, but cant use it to hire.

 

[ilhana123]

game is great planning system needs rework

 

[reb8]

Hey everyone! Thanks for the replies.


Yes it is. This Yakuza (Zero in my case) "minigame" was my inspiration for this game. Happy to see someone recognized it!

I see many people having problems seeing the videos and I kind of expected it. This game should work properly for people with an up-to-date Windows 10 (and specifically 10). I already know how to fix it but this should increase the size of the file.

For those interested in technical stuff, this is due to the fact that in order to minimize the file's size, I used videos in mp3 format using the h265 codec. To my knowledge (but maybe I'm wrong and if you knnow a better one, please tell me), this was the smallest sized file. But, it seems that non Windows 10 systems do not have this codec and therefore cannot see the videos. The fix is easy, I just need to convert all the videos to another frmat (I think mp4 with the h264 codec should wolrk).
Sorry for the inconvienience! I'll work on it today and try to have it fixed ad uploaded in a few hours.



Can you expand a little bit please ? Is it not doing what it should do, crashing the game or something else ?



Can you remember what you did before trying to save and it not working ? I'd be happy to read it, that would help me fix the bug. But knowing those bugs are there, I can at least try to find them. Thanks for the report!


Thank you everyone for your comments and reports. Happy to see people like my game (when it works...)!

I upgraded them to get better rest, bur girls are bot getting more energy back from resting

 

[puckofearth]

So you can accidently drag one girl over another and then she's there but the other girl disappears it seems, and the vids do wink out every so often. Also, not sure if it is possible but for the management screen it would be cool if you could use the arrow keys to move through your 'stable' so to speak.

 

[Tobe]

Hey everyone!

Thanks again for all your replies. I've read all of them and noted a lot of your good ideas. Many of them will be implemented in the future.

For those interested, I'm currently working on the next update, which will mostly be bug fixes, adding one new girl, a rework of the planning screen and one new mechanic. Depending on the time I have, it might also contain other things like some of the many quality of life improvements you suggested.

I see that some people still don't manage to see the videos. I'll try to think of a solution for that, and maybe change the format of the videos if needed.

 

[FifouWeb]

Hi Tobe,

I played some days, saved game reloaded...
Only on the first page because saving to subsequent pages seems bugged.
Now the Esc key do nothing and I can't access to save options.
However, when I start the game, I may load a previous save.
Hope this will help.

I wish you good luck for this project.

 

[anon62195]

As far as quality of life improvements go, sorting options would be nice. I like to try to prioritize the girls with lower openness which becomes more difficult the more girls you have.
