seriously nice game. might have hit a bug somewhere late in the game. suppliers have nothing to sell me.
or maybe i was just spending too much time with the gir
If that happens, then there is a definitely a bug. Suppliers should always sell you stuff.
If they are not, it will help if you could send me your save game to investigate.
Savegames are in: c:\Users\[YOUR_WINDOWS_USERNAME]\appdata\Local\GBGameWinDX\GBGameWinDX\1.0.0.0\SaveGames\
You can also see the full path to your savegame in the Save or Load windows, as a tooltip.

Of course the big question is, if my max energy is 7 and I go to bed at night with 7, why do I wake up the next morning at 6pts??? Should I not be at max after sleeping?
After sleeping your energy restores to almost max. Still, if you already had max energy, if should not drop below max, but this is a bug.
I am sorry about that but, for now, the maximum energy you can have when you wake up is 6. I'll fix it in the next version.

It worked once, but the next time also starting at 6pts, it told me I didn't have enough energy...
There may be a bug, as I double-checked and, as long you wake up with 6 energy points, you can have anal.
If you could send me a savegame, I will investigate.

Man you've done a good job there , i like your style and your good taste with the female character specially :p .. perhaps if u add few sounds to the characters for your next updates or releases , it would be great !

Looking forward to seeing more of your work!
Thank you for your kind words!
I am planning to add both background music and moaning sounds, if I'll have enough time.
The moaning sounds part is tricky, but I hope I can make something that won't sound as a metronome. Otherwise I won't include it in the next release.
To you have any other sounds in mind?

I had one girlfriend, that just taking the trash out of the house every day wasn't good enough, she was so indoctrinated into consumerism, that she'd go nuts if the trash cans weren't set out to the road twice a week, even if they were empty.
We lived in a neighborhood where all the houses were identical, and all the neighbors drove the same cars... the "Jonses" neighborhood. I like em crazy, but not that crazy.
I think it will make more sense that she gets less crazy about the trash as your relationship improves. Maybe she will penalize you less, or expect you to take the trash out less often. Sounds reasonable?

Excellent demo! Cool mechanics, unique concept (considering what most h-games put you through), sexy chick, nice CGs + animations (those are always a welcome addition), detailed explanations and tutorial in the form of notes.

All in all, this is what most demos should aim to look like. Considering this is only version 0.0.1, I wonder how far will the game get... :p

I only worry it will turn into a repetitive grind, so I hope more varieties will be introduced to mix up the routine of waking up-cleaning-working-sexy time-bedtime. ::|:

Also I'm not a fan of installations when it comes to porn games, but meh... Whatever.

That actually makes sense, how about adding new challenges\requirements in later parts of the game in order to maintain the relationship? Perhaps different household tasks, or shopping for groceries and so on.

During a rough patch in a relationship, even the smallest irritations can be blown out of proportion by a woman, so taking out the trash, being "a man's job" is a perfect example, and good in the game. But in my experience those kinds of negative points are temporary and don't count against getting booty. Even tho my girlfriend and I were fighting, we still had "angry sex". I felt a little out of character playing, because the MC didn't even try to have sex... girlfriend+shower+boner does not equal go take out the trash and wait for the shower. Even if he got shot down behind enemy lines, you still gotta try... she does know that you are interested, and eventually leads to sex, but it came across as more of conquering a virgin, than a girlfriend you're living with and have already had sex with.

I've had my own business, my whole life, and some girls can't deal with that. Girl logic requires stability, not just financially, but in other ways as well. Where I made my own schedule, and worked whenever I want, that made some girls uncomfortable, not knowing where I was from 9-5. Part jealousy, in that I was free to do whatever, and not locked in a cage during those hours like most people, even tho she knew full well that I wasn't cheating, it was just an increased risk factor in girl logic. He's at work comfort zone, nothing to worry about.

Her being jealous is a great idea for my next game, where you opened a physical/brick-and-mortar office.

But in my experience those kinds of negative points are temporary and don't count against getting booty. Even tho my girlfriend and I were fighting, we still had "angry sex". I felt a little out of character playing, because the MC didn't even try to have sex... girlfriend+shower+boner does not equal go take out the trash and wait for the shower.
Angry sex is an excellent idea!
I don't have any idea now how the animations will be and what kind of interactions will get you there, but I would like to have it in my game!
Do you have any suggestion for the dialogs and interactions that will get you there?

Surprise attack, while she's on the phone with her mother. MC makes his move, gets her all hot and bothered. Trying not to moan on the phone where mom can here, MC almost brings her to orgasm... but she stops him. she turns around, ass-up, to give her clit a break, and MC penetrates her form behind. she starts making excuses to get off the phone, but before she hangs up, MC pulls out and goes to the bedroom, leaving her on edge. she comes into bedroom saying "you better finish what you started" she rides for a while before MC throws her over an pounds.

One of my exgf wasn't the jealous type, but that switch can flip on in an instant.
I was at work, rigging characters for a new game. Very caught up in what I was doing. GF called the office, and asked for me. Someone from the team answered the phone, and asked "where's polywog" I was oblivious, and didn't know any of this until later, but someone else replied "He's boning a model" and she heard them say this. They tell me "you have a call" and I pick up the phone, but no one is on the line. 5 minutes later she's at my desk.... mad. "Where's this model you're banging?" she asks. Luckily the intern was off that day, or it might have been bloody. LMAO at the situation didn't help calm her down, but I pointed at the screen... list of bones, and she felt really stupid.
To emphasize how serious jealousy can be. I should note that 5 minutes, would have ordinarily been a 20 minute drive. She made it in 5 at the cost of a blown engine, burned transmission, and 3 bent rims. The make-up sex was worth the damages.

no, you must have missed taking out the trash on friday. 5 weekends at the parents, and no penalty here.
Yeah, well, I didn't miss it. I have a routine I did every time while I played, so It's impossible for me to have missed it.

Finally finished the game
found a lot of things very very wrong for a typical .001

First I noticed that some of the pictures move. I found that very distracting
worst of all it happens during the sex scenes, or when you try and look at the girlfriend's ass, it wiggles
I would expect these types of errors in an 0.8 or some 0.9s but not in an .001

There is an overwhelming amount of content, that makes it impossible to complete this demo in the usual 30 seconds, even with the tips provided by the developer.

The graphics almost look as if they were done by a professional, or something. Again very out of place for an .001 so be forewarned. This dev obviously has never heard of clipping, or the important role it plays in game development feedback.

His choice of models is another big issue, i'm not sure if it was the sammiches, or the girls breasts, but that typical dry mouth feeling of an .001 was absent with this one.

Another thing is the text speed. It requires some getting used to. Complete sentences appear all at once, instead of tiny allotments interposed with thousands of dots like we are accustomed to, and I won't even get into the proper grammar, and utter lack of machine-translation.

Bug

Marketing: Level 10 0 Exp. needed

You can learn Marketing all time no raise is this max level? And when this is max level why I get no message I learned all for now and close this action (and open it an next update if you reached the max. 100).

Aso he saves not the settings I play normal without sound (some Games need it then I play with it) I hear normal music when I am playing. When I start the Game Music is back on.

Thank you for reporting these issues. You are right on both and I'll try to fix them in the next version.
The tricky part with the professional skills is that learnings are not forever remembered. Soon you will start to forget, so you will need to refresh your knowledge by studying again.

Thanks for the feedback ! and yep , i would like sounds like hentai-sfx or sfx (kissing,bodies hitting,licking,etc) .. i know that can be tricky and i don't want to be annoying , as i said before .... you did a good job with your game even without audio (sfx) editing .

Found another bug.
When the girlfriend is on her pole, upside down, and she says kiss me. For some reason the blowjob scene doesn't play.

In the kitchen scenes.
1)Lick, finger, lick animation sequence.
2)finger, lick, finger... is that intentional, or did step 2 get mixed up?

Question about her work outfit... in future release, will MC be able to visit her at work. Not that her stripping at home, wouldn't be cool too, but maybe MC could kick back at the club, and get a lapdance while she's working.

I installed game but when i try to open it, appears this:
"This application requires one of the following versions of the .NET Framework:
.NETFramework, version=v4.5.2
Do you want to install this .NETFramework version now?"

It's normal?
