I think it's generally important to see that some fetishes/narratives seem simply not compatible with others and that this fact isn't really negotiable. And that pretty much goes both ways. Just as the "non-NTR-branch" in games like Seeds of Chaos or your "typical japanese female MC RPG maker game" seems stupid, the same would be true if someone tried to implement darker stuff like curruption, NTR, mind control, rape, etc. here or in games like Summertime Saga. Once the mood of a game is set, it can't be changed without damaging the game itself.

Then again, that's really just true for a few fetishes. I don't think that anybody would argue that, for example, "a few more footjobs" would do any actual harm.

We're not talking about adding more of things that are already in the game. But in this and multiple other threads there are frequent post of the type 'this game would be better if it added so and so' or 'it's unfortunate that my super-niche kink isn't in it'. And a lot of posters' standard is simply 'it doesn't include my kinks, therefore it is vanilla'.
It gets tiring seeing the same things over and over again, when the developers have already stated they will only do what they feel is right for the game and themselves are interested in. Like even if some developer somewhere was pliable to implement something by request, does anyone even think it will be done properly ?
A certain Big Brother game comes to mind which was very poorly written, because its developer aimed to cater towards the prevalent incest trend, without understanding anything about it.

I don't wanna really prolong this discussion, because nobody here actually said anything about any specific kink/fetish, so it's kinda futile to argue about these things when there's nothing to argue about. But I'd indeed think that quite a few developers would manage to implement a lot of new content well, as long as it fits into the game in principle. That's just what decent writers do.

But most devs simply just aren't good writers (to be nice, some stories are literally worse than what an average 14 year old would write) and that does indeed show massively. I mean, I'm almost 100% sure that BigBrother would have been written very poorly in any case, even if there had been zero incest in it.

If a dev wants to include certain kinks to attract a larger audience for their game I don't have a problem with it. But I do hope they would make them optional and avoidable for those that have no interest in them or they would just wind up driving away some players while trying to attract others. I've quit a number of games that decided to add certain things I have no interest in without making them avoidable.

That seems to be the way they are headed. For instance, the whole old/young thing with Celestina is an optional questline past the introduction that is involved in Holly's route.

Hi everybody.
A couple of important announcements before the weekly report:

0.6 poll
First and foremost, if you're a Best Friend or a Close Friend tier supporter and have not participated in the 0.6 direction poll, head over to this post (

) and pick your favorite girls. So far, it seems like the winner will be either Rose or Gomira, but that might change since many of you haven't voted yet, and there are two more days left until the poll expires.

Commissioned backgrounds
SantaKlaus, the artist that we had commissioned to help Chestnut with the backgrounds, has delivered all of the artworks requested. He did a great job, and we're very happy with the outcome, so we have asked him to continue to sketch more backgrounds. This way, we'll be able to expand the world gradually beyond the 0.5 stuff.

Weekly report
Chestnut:
For most of the week, Chestnut was busy working on a cutscene from Simmone's content. It was a shortish event, but it required her to create a new and unique style to present it (not unlike the hen tea stuff without being humorous like that). We think it looks cool and sets up the mood of Simmone's story nicely. Chestnut also did

and finished all of the achievement icons, a video of which we will share with you this weekend.
Pistachio:
I finished the main dialogues, added the text to the game, and modified the code here and there to reflect the changes in the story. I also started posing some of the scenes. There's a lot more editing and posing-related coding left, but I'll gradually do them as I pose the scenes.
Next week's plans:
Chestnut will keep working on cutscenes. She may have to stop that to create additional facial expressions for sprites as I pose the scenes, but that would depend on what will be needed.
I will focus entirely on posing scenes and editing the text and the code to make sure everything feels and looks good.

That's all.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Cheers.

Hi everybody.
The 0.6 direction poll has ended, and as you can see below, the results were incredibly close. Many of you liked to see more of Gretta, but the real match was between Rose and Gomira. In the end, Rose won by a single vote.


Therefore, the 0.6 update will focus on Rose's story. It will be a side-quest similar to 0.4 in that it will conclude her story and open up threesome opportunities with Myrtle.
Although Gomira lost only by one vote, we will still run another poll for 0.7 after the release of 0.5. We believe that doing so would be fairer since it will ensure that future patrons, too, will be able to determine the game's direction.
Thank you to all of you who participated, and I hope you're happy with the results.
Cheers

So it is going to be the
ultra sexy, wanton, provocative, sensuous, randy Rose
rather than the
ultra cute, flirty, dirty, lacivious, horny Holly
or the
ultra carnal, provocative, licentious, libinous Gomira

I feel so hard ...

I've decided to play this game again, after my last playthrough on v0.2. In case you're wondering, there's absolutely nothing wrong with the game. I actually like it pretty much, I just didn't have the time to play it.

I have just a question: who is that awful person who asked the dev to change the first hidden photo? The original version was much much better IMHO. Good thing I noticed it in time and made a backup.
