My advice to any prospective real porn devs, is to do video editing yourself to have more control of the clips. It's way more work than taking popular and easily available GIFs and webm, but it gives you a lot more options for how the results come out if you start from a 1-hour scene, and cherry-pick out some 10 second clips from there yourself.

The best way is to start from 1080p (at least) full scenes and then cut them down from there. You can crop and zoom in on aspects of the clip you want to highlight, and cut away parts you don't. Then you can also do your own color grading & maybe something to add a consistent style. Additionally, you can settle on a single consistent resolution for each clip, so that players aren't distracted by some clips being tiny / blurry and some being massive HD ones.

Video editing is way easier than it used to be, really recommend anyone who wants to give it a try, to use a noob-friendly editor like Wondershare Filmora. It's (relatively) cheap and so easy to use. Before this game I had never edited video before, very simple to pick up.
As someone who is interested in making real porn games themselves, i really appreciate this info/advice! idk if you made the music in the game yourself but if you did id be interested in learning about your process for that as well.

Afraid I didn’t make the game music myself, for the 20+ original tracks I just paid composers on fiverr. Of course I’ve also mixed in a bunch of non original tracks too…

Thanks so much for the feedback!

A few responses:
  1. Watercolor styling was done using the desktop Windows/Mac app Topaz Enhance AI, and then the Mac app "Clip2Comic" to add the final effect, with some adjustments and optimizations afterward.
  2. Jungle area is due for a total revamp at some point. Was just testing out having an explorable area, will probably make this smaller, more events in it and have arrow keys / icons for navigation rather than buttons saying forward / left etc etc. Anyhow...
  3. Desk job does need a tutorial. Many people give up since I don't do a good job at explaining it at first. Will be adding some quality of life improvements to desk job in the future, and will try to add some tutorial bits in once I do.
  4. Impregnation and pregnancy are planned. They won't be game overs. But the pregnancy will be also something more like a "montage" of scenes rather than real time game days etc etc.
  5. Opacity slider for the buttons is a good idea! I may be able to swing that. At least, I could make an option to make them slightly transparent, probably. Will mess around with the css for that at some point. But this is a reason I allow the player to view the video after they win / lose, rather than immediately skipping to the next screen.
  6. Removal of 'step' from family won't be able to happen in core game for variety of reasons. Firstly, it's not lore friendly because 80% of the time everyone's a different race from each other lol. But I won't complain if someone makes a modded version for this...
  7. Girls with pubic hair and natural tits... most of them do have natural tits. And the majority have pubic hair in some animations, but not others. You're gonna love the time travel scenes planned in future when I use vintage porn, you'll have pubes to your heart's content!! :)
  8. I do use some lesser known actresses, however they need to have a minimum of scenes so there is enough content for me to use. There will be more actresses in future scenes of course, but I think the roster of 10 "main" actresses is about as complete as I can make it. Each one I add requires hundreds/thousands of new images/videos.
  9. The CPU isn't cheating at blackjack, you are both pulling from the same deck in the code :)
4. Nice. There's not too much irl preggo porn (and especially for big-name porn stars), so I'll take what I can get.
6. Makes sense.
8. Suggestion: add the actress' name on the character select screen. Or a link to her profile on redtube or w/e

10. add cheats?
11. Bar/dating tutorial ?
12. BDSM or femdom?

10. For cheats, maybe take a look at this, it's a modded version of the game I started working on. Admittedly since fucking around with it in game more it is a bit finicky but i hope to work more on it in the near future and with updates it should get better. Might be what you're looking for.

11. My bar strat which never seems to fail is to first, buy a drink for them off rip. Doesn't matter which drink it is. I usually start with whisky and then go down the line. After that, introduce yourself/hit chat. Then, buy them another drink. If you tried Whisky the first time, go for Fruity Cocktail this time. Now you just loop this for a while. When chatting I personally alternate between "ask about her" and "mutual interest" but I haven't actually looked into if one is better than the other. At some point, you'll find out which drink is their preferred one. They'll either say it after you chat with them or after you buy them a certain drink. From this point forward, only buy them that drink. Loop for a while and then "ask to fuck".
Just keep in mind that how long you have to loop this for will depend on your stats and there is at least 1 girl who (i think) won't fuck you regardless of what you do if you dont play as the black character.

I would also like to add that there is actually a cheat menu in the most recent version of the game.

(I just made this post public recently so it might take a bit of time to reflect that)

These codes were added in 13e, which I haven't made super available yet because I don't like spamming out revisions. But anyhow , just replace the 13c html file with this one.

Ask about her will give you hints what to answer when talking about mutual interests. If you ask her about her and she tells you how conservative she is, when talking about mutual interests and she asks your opinion about equality, chances are you need to tell her you do not believe genders are equal because she believes in clear gender roles.
It also may reveal if she is on the pill or not. If she isn't on birth control you need to make sure you pull out. If you don't she'll never talk to you again.

I meant more like idk if one option increases your chances of getting to fuck them more or not. But yeah you are right about the ask about her thing revealing tips on how to answer for the mutual interest thing among other things.

Bug:
For .13c and .13e
on Firefox, Win10 (up to date)
the arrowkey/wasd minigame videos sometimes stop playing. About 1/3 of the time. Can't find any pattern to trigger.

Do they freeze for you on the final frame, or disappear? I haven’t seen this myself yet. I assume they play through once fully?

how to get fucked for jade
The only two ways to get fucked in Jade's body are:
  1. Try to purchase 1 X-Change Basic when you have less than $100 (but more than $50), after blowing the pharmacist he will ask you to fuck for an extra reward
  2. You can get fucked in the mall cop scene, but it is a hard scene to find. I believe someone made a post in this thread, but basically anytime Alexia says she's running low on cash when she gets into the car, just walk around the mall until the event triggers - going into various shops etc
Many more options for sex as the X-Changed characters will be available soon, in future updates.

Not 100% sure, but they do seem to play for some time before freezing.

On a related note, the audio and video get out of sync with some frequency. Again, not sure if they start this way or slip out of sync. The desync seems to be able to happen on most sex scenes. (minigame or not).

I should mention that the audio and video are totally separate, so having a desynced experience is expected. Oftentimes it won't be noticeable, because the sex noises are just like a cacophony of sounds.

I really like this game!
The usage of the porn scenes is awesome, the minigames are refreshing and the overall appearance is very nice.
I didn't encounter any mayor bugs or crashes.

Nevertheless I wanted to give some feedback:

- The sales minigame could need some love. At first I liked to figure out the details, choose a product and make the call. Later I found the note feature and wrote stuff down. But is becomes tedious after a few weeks. I ended just taking Screenshots of the research and product screens for the call. In a realistic sales scenario the character would have all nessessary information on screen anyways with no need to remember everything.
Maybe there could be a part where you go through random conversation line and have to appeal to the client by remembering what they like or what values they have. Like the flirting minigame, but more elaborate.

-Another point is that sometimes during the sales talk I get only negative opinions (like bulk discount, when I know that they won't get them) and bullshiting. But in a realistic scenario you would not take about that. So maybe you could tweak it so that you have always a good /neutral opinion and a bad option.

- Is there a way to call. people? I got numbers from two bar girls, but can't do anything with them.^^

- Do you have any plans to add anal content with the sex scenes?
- Do you have any plans to add rape/ blackmail content?
- Both? :>

Good luck with further development and thanks for all the work! :)
