nope and doesn't like this or other witch trainers which continue his game.
Interesting, I didn’t know he had that issue with the mod. It’s understandable, but I imagined he wouldn’t really… let’s say, care about it.

An update this game needs is to make it run better. It seems to be the outfits that cause the problems, for me at least. I tried playing it on my phone and going to the outfit seller takes forever to load and then lags horribly while there. Launching the wardrobe for a character takes so long, I could open have the game load a save and then close the game three times in the time it takes to load the wardrobe on android. It's better on PC but still is crazy slow and the seller lady still lags horribly. If possible that would be the update we need before anything else.

Thats supposed to be part of the next update.

It's taking forever but it's coming.

You can apparently try out parts of the update on the discord, but you need to be a bit more tech savoy than i am willing to try to be.

Oh that's cool, I can't access the discord though it won't let me join. I'll wait for the update to be posted here, thank you for informing me.

(Good feedback)
Thanks a lot for this write-up. Really well put together and gives me a lot of insight into what can be done better. It's a shame the items haven't worked in your game, because there are additional CG scenes tied just to them. I'll make sure to test them yet again to ensure it works within the new interfaces, just in case.

Akabur right now realizing he could have spread the game out and made a five figure salary dropping one update a year with 1/4 of the total content for 1/6 of the girls each time. I'd be mad at the free missed income too lol, this'll be a cash cow for another decade easily at the rate things are happening. This and Princess Trainer are literally the games that created the trainer genre in the first place.

I forgot to respond earlier to this; It is being addressed once and for all in the next update. I've implemented disk cache for parts of the Doll systems so that the renders don't cause issues.

Programming monster! Well, so that was what was causing the lag? A question that came to my mind: can DeepSeek help you solve these kind of problems?

Yes, the problem lied with the lack of proper cache implementation, which I knew how to solve circa two years ago, but Ren'Py had certain limitations that made it impossible at the time for me to implement, until one of the recent updates made to the engine.

AI is good at explaining basic programming concepts, generating boilerplate code, and doing repetitive tasks for you. It is not good for anything else at the moment, especially for niche languages like Ren'Py since all Large Language Models, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Deepseek, Qwen, Mistral will all hallucinate the answers and get lost in Ren'Py syntax, which is a mix of in-house solutions and Python, on top of Cython, GLSL, and SDL2.

The lack of codebase understanding is what kills transformer-based models for apps that are more complex than a calculator. This is not surprising; After all, it's all just linear algebra.

The only practical use I've found for AI was to employ a snarky and sassy Discord bot to remind me to get off my lazy ass and do some work. You can also poke 'her' to get dunked on. :ROFLMAO:

Can you really blame him? These "mod" devs are milking his game adding minor changes and updates full of "fixes".
They pretty much took his game, added a bit extra content and milking it releasing minor fixes.
4 years passed and there's no reason to revisit this game at all because no significant new content was ever added. Unless you like to play "dress up" game.
Their success is based on akabur content and they live off of akabur game doing bare minimum. They pretty much leeching off someone's else work.

Akabur should really send them cease and desist. That would end this charade when it would force them to redo 80% art.
