So, I played this for a couple of hours last night and I found it... kinda frustrating. I really want to like this game, seriously, but there are so many things about it that just annoy the crap out of me. So, incoming text walls, because I want to get a review off my chest.

First off, for reference, here are my stats after... I dunno, a few hours of grinding and looking for story.

I also had a little over $615. I screwed up my first play through and started over so I'm not certain just how long I ended up playing.

Long assed review inbound. Some small story spoilers are included, so reader beware. PLEASE NOTE, everything within is my opinion. I fully expect people to disagree with me on a great many things. All of my suggestions for the dev are just that, suggestions. It's no one's problem but my own if I some day decide to stop playing the game because the cons outweigh the pros.

That's a long review!

At any rate, I'm trying very hard to like this game and, with a bit of work, I think I really could. Right now, though, the grind just isn't worth it for the meager rewards discovered. As the MC, I never did end up getting lucky as I see is possible in the OP screenshots, so I'm not sure what I did or did not do wrong. Granted, I wasn't as exploratory and adventurous as I could have been hunting down possible events. However, due to the harsh QoL stats (hunger, et al.) loss, the rising need for cash as raising skills began costing money and buying drinks became the most reliable way to raise affection, and the required amount of time needed to devote to study to raise stats that trigger new events increased, I didn't feel as though I was really encouraged to. After a few hours, I just found myself wishing I had a day-to-day optimized walkthrough.

This game has a lot of potential. Sadly, right now it's largely untapped, but with some work and a lot of stat balancing, it could be awesome. I'll be keeping an eye on it to see where the dev takes it. Hopefully, he'll pay attention to all the feedback and make some positive changes.

Thank you for your detailed reviews.
I really need to have feedback.
I know the game is very grindy now but I'm adding new location and events at every release ( 0.3 will be ready in a couple of days).
There is so much more story to you to discover.
The stats need to be fixed ( especially Irene stats, and it will be at the next release. )
Also the UI will be useful to navigate but I rebuilt it completely from v0.1 to 0.2. In 0.3 I'll make it more "fast"
At the moment it's a problem for me to add a save point everywhere, I'm working on it but probably it will be ready in 0.4.
Also the "go thru the Living room" etc...I did it to reduce the risk of bugs.
I think you don't reach Kirsten and Rebecca house yet.
Guenda storyline will have a split. The decision you made on 0.2 will have 2 very different storyline. You can decide if you want to seduce her like a normal girl or you can continue to blackmail her ( in 0.3 I add Vito's Wife Character)
If you meet Rebecca and Kirsten at the shop before you introduce her it's an error I'll fix it. Later I'll work to the game and I'll try to find out which is the problem.
Meadow and Julian have a deeper storyline, everything will be more clear in 0.3 (or when you'll make some progress)
There isn't so much about Irene yet, the story grow slowly... she's your brother girlfriend... you know...
Yes, David will be useful for Rebecca and Kirsten. And for other Character.
The principal storyline of the game ( I know, maybe isn't explained so good) is to become a great photographer, so you have to take pics of the girls, there will be so much new events in every episode about that.

Check your DM
Sorry, my mind blanked. What's my DM?

Also, I don't know how difficult to add it would be but, would you consider maybe adding a gallery feature where we can go back and see pictures we've already taken of the girls? Maybe add it to the Use PC feature in the bedroom where we can check our page.

DM is direct message. your mail in this forum

Probably I'll add the galleries in next version. I want to find a fast way to reach it. The solution I find at the moment it's long so I didn't make it yet.

I can only fully agree with you as ridiculous grinding as the game is and as good as no rewart that is no longer beautiful and I see in the near future that is not what is improving in the opposite I fear that it remains so or even worse i'll hate such stupid useless games idk what the devs are thinking they probably

want to stretch their game to disguise that the game does not really have anything to offer in reality and here it looks quite like it does not make much sense either no fun to play

@HoneyGames This game has the same problems as "king of the beach". The videocard is used @100% at static pictures. (in a comment from snake thompson i saw also a post about high GPU use)
When you move between the areas or after a chat with someone, sometimes an old area keeps apearing or a head stays in the picture.
These 2 problems were also in king of the beach from you.
Find an easier and lighter game engine and it could be good, but for now it's not. Loading and saving are better, so thats a plus for this game.

I don't know how to use other Game engine.
I tried renpy but it's not good for the kind of game I make.
The Game I make now It's too complex and have got so much location and variables and renpy doesn't give me the same freedom
I'm really sorry you have problem to play it with your pc but if I start from the schratch to study a new software I'll lose more than one year and half of study on Unity and I'll need so much time before I can make a better game.
I solved the issues about the slow text but for other things I can't do anything.
About the bugs of the image I fix it anytime someone tells me.

@HoneyGames I like the game sofar and it's potential. I do not have a deep review but I do have a suggestion. As you progress you need to get to learn each character. It would be helpful if the progress shows what you get to learn from each character: what kind of jokes they like, what they do in sparetime and what drinks they enjoy. And of course it needs to be added to their profile after discovering this.

Your suggestion is interesting. I will try to make it possible (from v0.4, 0.3 is nearly ready)
In a couple of hour I'll release v0.3 and I'll write "what's New"

I release version 0.3 for my patreon.

I let you here a fast what's new..


First of all there are some news I'm sure you'll be happy to read.

I add a couple of savepoint, now you can save or load your game from the Map and from another Location (when you'll unlock it.)



I change also the Menu. Now You can go directly to skillz, inventory and other stats directly from the Main Window.


I add some new location but as usual you'll have to unlock it.

Kirsten will have a work and you can go where she work.

I continue the splitted storyline of Guenda. His character have 2 different storyline it depends how you behave with her in the past ( if you blackmailed or not to give her the pics)

Kirsten will have a new stats you can see in his stats page (it will appear only after you unlock it), yes it's a “sex based” stats. I don't want to spoil more but we will talk about it in the future.

You will learn more things about other characters and there are some interesting news about Meadow, Julian and Irene...

As usual there will be one more photoset for all the girls (Guenda it depends wich storyline you've choosed)... But after one specific photoset there will be an event. You will know a new character ( we'll talk about it later) and she will unlock the Model Agency where you can hire Model for your photoshooting. You knw more pic you made, more follower you gain and more money you'll earn...

Yes when you reach more than 1500 followers you'll start earn money ( money will be transfer in your account every sunday to monday night)... At 3000 follower there is the next step and you'll earn more... and more and more...

Remeber more follower a girls have more follower you earn (not ever)



Ah... I rebuilt the Sex Scene, now you have more and more option... but you have to unlock it or the girl will not happy about what you do... My suggestion is “make her cum more than you can”



I hope you'll have fun.

just started and i can point out 3 things.
1st the text is not revealed at the same pace so it looks weird
2nd the grammar and spelling really needs a lot of work
3rd the font of the letters is horrible and hard to read.

I will probably retry in couple of updates, but currently it is not of acceptable quality

i mean that it does not reveal at the same pace. 20-30 letters are revealed then a pause and then another 20-30 letters. also the revealing speed is quite slow and i have to wait to read the whole thing. would welcome an option of instant reveal of the text

I think it's because The game is heavy. In the past post someone give me some ideas to make it lighter. I'll try it.
fr me it's difficult to understand if what I change works because my pc don't have any problem to play the game.
