How??? Pls tell me
I don't know if this will work for you like it did for me. Like I said before, I tried using the app (The Unarchiver) it didn't work. I used the file archiver (Keka) and it actually downloaded all the way and the game worked.

I'f that's the case and in (let's say) 10 weeks from now a new release is released.
Well if that happens i will gladly say i was wrong and that i'm a complete idiot and will be back to my previous pledge amount including donating the amount of months that i missed.

BUT until then...Until i see it happening or even a sign of life... I will proceed to believe that's it's not going to happen :)
Someone better screenshot this, just in case! :p

Thanks, man. It is still live. Give it to next week (after the Melody release) and I’ll see if I can’t get permission to make a more official announcement or if there can be one on Mr Dots or DMD websites.
I actually went to his DMD site and purchased the latest game for download, just to show that interested consumers could be willing to support the continued work. Not sure if that makes a symbolic enough difference unless others are willing to show a similar commitment, but I'd like to see it gain a new life, even if much slower on the release path than Melody.

Quentin Tarantino mentioned that he loves to create moments of tension and stretch them and stretch them and stretch them until you can't go on.
This game brought it long past that point. It became really boring.
Tens of hours of gameplay and so little variety.

is there a way to rename your character and the daughters?

towards the end of chapter 1 the names disappeared and it has carried over to chapter 2 I was just hoping there was a way to fix it

As it's Ren Py you should be able to run UnRen on it and look at the variables, from there you may be able to work out the ones for their names and adjust them.

Can someone please tell me how to get the "Porn movie reward"?
I have found walkthrough v.0.14, there says to tell daughter the truth when watching TV at day two.
But I don't get that option, and I have tried anything I can of, and have also been searching the forum for answer, but without any luck in finding this.

Yes - at anytime you can rename yourself and your daughter. I’ve used different names for both over playing, so I have different names saved at different points, but you can click on the daisy, I think and change names.

I don’t disagree with some of that repetitiousness in some areas. At the end of 2017, I posted a discussion on that and sent those points to MDots and because the “masterbate/shower/am I going too far” circle happened two to three times in a row with imo too close in similarity. —. There might also be other areas too similar for some players’ tastes. —. I vow to keep bringing that issue up to the team because, imo, a VN is too short of a medium to have any sexual act or important character interaction be too similar to another sexual act or important character interaction.

BTW, if it is the slow pace that bugged you, that pace will still be slow (though at least we have penetration so we are moving to better things). Perhaps I will add to my tumblr blog on the importance of being vulnerable in sex and offering up oneself for further sexual activities as a “giving” of oneself. This progression of vulnerability is only edgy if the sexual activity is new from the sexual activity before it, or, if not new, is being more accepted by the sexual partner. Sexual acts that are too similar to the last sexual act between two characters loses that progression, newness, and vulnerability aspect (and thus, imo, in a corruption storyline does not progress the story).

Let me know if my concerns are in the same ballpark with your concerns.

We will start working on Episode 3 of Melody after this week’s premiere release on Friday. Then once Episode 3 is released, we will START WORK ON v18 OF DMD, which we are hoping to release around the END OF MAY!

Our intention is to release two episodes of Melody (Friday and one next month), then one of DMD (v18) in May. Then we’ll go back to work on Melody in June.
might want to put the whole post in a spoiler

Remember that these are preview pics. Most of those don't even make it into the game.
i don't think he makes his models extra young for the previews :winkytongue:
..and better mood today after his post regarding dmd?

I'm glad MrDots has made a positive response. At least this thread won't take on an "Onhold" notice, at least when there is a firm date.
But there are pitfalls aplenty as well. I personally will not play Melody. I've tried, and failed, to get interested in non-incest games. Immersion is "king" NOT implausible story lines that always lead to sex. DMD is special. Few games truly are.
I could ask a million questions about DMD but virtually none will be adequately answered at this time. To expect DMD fans to support Melody is problematical. Beauty, and immersion, is in the eyes of each person. So let each person decide for himself.
Oh well! Putter around here for a while yet...
I think what will be interesting about Melody in relation to DMD will be the art choices and render structuring. You can see MDots’ art advancing if you compare the beginning of Ch1 with the end of Ch1. But then I’m behind the MDots team primarily due to his art - and second due to his stance on adult romantic VNs. I can agree that DMD might be more engaging for many than Melody - but I anticipate both will engage me more than any other VN out there. But that may just be me and my personal preferences.

slowly but surely i believe in MrDots intention to finish dmd
he had enough reasonable opportunities to abandon, but he still tries to deliver a finished project
.

so, the wait goes on and we have further room to speculate
or we play with Melody and her girlish looking friends :heartcoveredeyes:
