Hi, I think I found a bug. When you get fucked by the pharmacist the first time and get the card. The value of that card is different between the value that the pharmacist tells you and the value the serendipity comics offers.

This game is just insane

l1lym I am really thinking about supporting you on SubS. with that amazing work you do.
Do you have a roadmap on the upcomming features and esitmated times for that?

Best Regard, a huge fan
Hey, thanks so much for the kind words!

My current roadmap is like this, I've pulled my message from the Discord:
1642068917628.png

From past experience, each major release will take about 1.5 months to complete. I wanted to say a month each because it's cleaner, but this last release 0.14 almost killed me lol.

This is actually because Serendipity gives you only 50% of the real value of cards - they gotta make money too! In future, I am going to add collectors looking for specific cards / sets who will pay much higher.
Since I feel like my question might have been missed, I will reply to my own comment and hopefully someone can answer me <3
Sorry for missing it! Identity is essentially your in-game health. Once it gets to 0, that means you've lost your sense of self basically. Not dead, but your character wasn't able to handle all the changes and situations, and it will result in game over (although this is not implemented). There may be a "bimbo rehabilitation" option so you can come back from it with reduced stats or something...

Femininity meanwhile is not necessarily bad. It just relates to how feminine / slutty you're becoming. I know in real life, femininity does not equal sluttiness, but this is science fiction, and X-Change pills are known to have that effect on their takers :)

Don't really comment on here but, I really appriciate this game and look forward to the next updates. Developer of this game deserves much more, there aint many games as good as this out there.
Thanks so much for saying that!
i made a post for .13C+

the online version should have it
its in the game settings menu

not sure if its still avalible for the latest build offline.


is the cheat option still available for the offline version or was that removed?
The cheat menu is now in all versions, online and offline. To access it go to Menu -> Game Settings -> and look for a pager emoji, click on it to open the cheat code enter-er thing.
Really enjoyed the game so far! One of the best ones out there even though I didn't get very far and only reached the recorrent blowjob scenes and the three work related ones. Seems to be a "bar" event but I don't know how to access it.
Hope it keeps up! Really really enjoy it!
Yes there's a few bar events. Go to the bar when you don't have much money, and play blackjack (as a guy) against Dredd. Lose enough money to get in debt, and the event will trigger! There are two sets of scenes there.

There's also a set of scenes worth trying if you don't do your chores repeatedly. 3 sets of events happen with your stepdad.

There's also a mall cop event if your stepsis gets caught shoplifting, you can offer yourself.

For tips on any of these, go to the "tip jar" in the cafe and there are some increasingly detailed instructions.

AFAIK there is no way to increase your identity and stats, so when you lose stats it kinda feels bad for taking the pills and acting slutty.

Also i think it would be better if you could adjust your initial stats manually, instead of it being a random re-roll

I stumbled onto your game a few days ago and I have to say that the amount of attention to detail and care is insanely impressive. I wish I wasn't a broke grad student so that I could actually support you on subscribestar but I'm definitely a fan of your work and really looking forward to where it goes next!

A question but will I be able to raise stats in later versions? It would feed my need to see the numbers go up! Oh and fun game I enjoyed it.

Dude, the game is awesome, can't wait till version 0.2 where big fun begins. Maybe there is way to help you out (not financial at the moment, unfortunately) to speed up the things?

This really need a system that takes notes for you automatically. It got a great concept but at this point it feels like I'm doing homework which is not fun "gameplay" and frankly stuff like the chick who after you spent a bunch of time trying to talk to her and buying drinks then going "I only date blacks", if you have a system like that, make it clear before the player spends time and resources on deadends. I don't know if there are also stuff like that with work, but if there is the same applies.

Kinda hope a mod comes out that removes the "filter" over everything. The game has a lot of good quality porn gifs in it, but the filter kinda ruins a lot of it.

There isn't a filter or setting within the game, Aphrodite edited the videos deliberately. In part it was to give the game the look and tone she wants, and in part to make it harder to match the clips to copyrighted material. There won't/can't be a simple mod of the game to change that processing; you'd have to source new video clips yourself and replace all of the video files in that come with the game.

Pity. Some of the filtering is bearable but there's several gifs that are so blocky that it might as well be censored.

Yeah, I know the ones you're referring to. I had originally used a cartoon filter that added black lines, and a lot of the older animations still have that. Now I have fully switched over to a new method that is extremely performance and compression friendly, so that I can compress videos without getting the blocky-ness etc and motion-caused compression artifacts. With each release, I go through a chunk of older videos and replace them, but it is going to be a long road to get those 100% eliminated. All I can say, is they will get less and less over time.

The AI filtering process I use now actually is what allowed me to convince SubscribeStar to approve my game. I personally think the filtered video I use looks better than a lot of the original porn sources, but that's an opinion of course.

Here's an example of what some of the before/after looks like.
1. I go over every video and use AI to re-render it at 960x540, which gets the outlines of the actors to be much crisper than just a simple down-res and compression.
2. I use a video editor on that source to color-correct and get everything looking colorful and consistent
3. I use another tool to reduce the number of colors, which aids in finally compressing the videos without visual artifacts.

I know it will not be to everyone's taste, but I do a lot more on these clips than just 'filter' them. I also use different compression rates now on different videos, because porn clips with greater amounts of motion need higher amounts of data to keep them looking good.

But if you or anyone wants to release a mod that "removes the filter" on everything, I don't mind whatsoever! I just want the core game to end up looking like the lower picture rather than the top picture, generally speaking.

The character you pick at the start affects the porn star you see in the pics and thus the size of the tits you see.
Yep - if you want the absolute biggest tits, I'd recommend either Blake Blossom or Autumn Falls, or Ella Knox as your mc. Though I'm partial to Liya Silver's tits myself.
14a Hotfix up on tfg.
And I'll be uploading 14b today! Will add the option to wear clothes without underwear, and also to have a little blurb that describes the clothes you're wearing when hovering your mouse over the character portrait.

Good idea regarding the auto-note taking, I actually have this in my to-do list. Regarding the girls at the bar, I do believe they reveal their preferences if you talk to them enough. But I forget, I coded that so long ago. It's a good point as well. (The main reason for the girl who only dates black guys, and the girl who only dates white/asian guys, is just a restriction on what animations I gathered for them lol - may remove these preferences in future and add scenes for both)

I do regularly post writing prompts etc, so feel free to and there will be opportunities to help out occasionally. For instance, I had a lot of help writing the outfit descriptions, since there were 600+ outfits that all needed several different descriptions and stats. If I did them all myself, they would have gotten less creative over time due to the repetition. But crowdsourcing the task let them all be relatively entertaining, because everyone could just do a few of them.
A question but will I be able to raise stats in later versions? It would feed my need to see the numbers go up! Oh and fun game I enjoyed it.
Yes you will be able to level up your stats. In version 0.15 which I will be starting dev on soon, you will be able to train and increase your fitness in sex scenes in the gym (as well as in the non-sex gym minigames).

Yes, once the score multiplier is working properly, I think I will remove fully the "Player Archetype" and rather let the player apply their own stats within a range. The higher their stats, the slower their XP gains will be. In future, there may also be advantages and disadvantages you can take that will adjust your XP gain rate further. I really like the way Daggerfall handles character creation and I aim to eventually make a hyper-simplified version of it.

How is this even a porn game. It's just an extremely boring office management game. If I wanted to do actual office work I'd work in an office. There are no other job options but a really boring sales job where you actually have to do the work of matching up clients with products and convince them to buy. The system is very impressive, but completely out of place in a pornographic game. It's a boner-killer. Unless other jobs are offered in the future, I can only recommend this game to those who get aroused at researching companies and selling them products.

Edit: Also anything with the unavoidable STEP relations pisses me off, so I might be acting harsher than is deserved. Sorry. I wish they would have a different tag for stepcest so that we actual incest fetishists can stop being catfished by the tags.

My desperate last-ditch attempt to entertain you would be to recommend you try out the stripping side-job, in case you haven't triggered it (a bit hidden). Basically try losing more money than you have at blackjack with Dredd in the bar, while you're a male character. There's two separate scenes that are fairly long and involved. You might enjoy them, or you might hate them... :sneaky:

As a side note, I've removed the Incest tag in genres as it is not accurate; I am not the one who added it in the first place and am not trying to "catfish incest fetishists" as you put it.

Like I said, I was probably being too sensitive because of it, and I'm sorry if that is so. I was not accusing YOU of catfishing us. The Tag rules for the incest tag on the site automatically catfish us. This is because the incest tag on F95 is SUPPOSED to be used when there are sexual relations between step-family as well as actual incest. I am angry with that rule, not your implementation. According to how F95 erroneously defines the incest tag, this game deserves the tag. The same problem occurs because the NTR tag does not distinguish between Netorare (being cucked) and Netori (cucking someone else). I personally believe that including opposites (as the NTR tag does) or variation that many find offensive (as including step-cest in the incest tag does) should be reason enough for a separate tag. Unfortunately, as with most places in the universe, people here are . . . (avoid the "I" word Elerneron) . . . people. If the problem doesn't affect them directly they refuse to correct the issue; leading to more frustration from those whom it actually does affect.

TL;DR: I'm sorry. You're okay. The site tag rules suck. I overreacted.
