Thanks. Feedback is always good to hear :)
Hi, great game, so glad that you are continuing its development.

A quick question, is there a limit/end scene associated with Purple Volcanoes? The girl sends me some allusive SMSs, but so far that's it.

Indeed, the end game scene with have an extra section detailing the lasting effects of using the hypnotic/control aspects of the flowers.

I saw that, but is there something else during the game? Is there a limit of use for Purple Volcanoes?

Just to let you all know, I've not gone dormant on this again :) I've just this minute sorted out (cropped, and resized) the 32 images for the final missing finale scene. However the reason for the delay was that I got rather distracted with something else. I felt the lunchtime cafe section was a bit of a low point, were not much really happened and I had planned for more there, so thinking about the game as it is now I'm working on adding a new interaction there, were you can text the online girl (and if it goes down well I might add in the other girls) and get some responses. Some with pictures!

Still working on the content for it, but the system I've devised seems to work quite well and should cater for old saves as it checks for any missing or outdated data it needs and creates it on the fly.

Hopefully should have the FINAL Alpha release done over the weekend, and then we can head into Beta were you can all pick the game apart and point out all the inconsistencies and typos I've left in there for your enjoyment ;)

Made some adjustments to the office chats after a playthrough, should be more successful now. Failed way too often on chat. Flirting is still always risky though, unless you max out Communication. I may re-visit this in Beta, I feel your relationship level with the girls should have an equal, if not greater effect on your chance of success.

Added more options to the lunch chats, still very much experimental and not enough options to make it interesting yet. Too much repetition, but hopefully something to spice up the lunch break.
Added the final end game scene. 32 image set!

Began installing a new lunch time option to send a text message to the online girl.

That's a fair comment. Now the story is all in place I can start looking at balancing the progression some, and maybe adding some hints to the game as to what needs to happen next.

Absolutely love the game. The only downside is that my favorite side character Sarah is softcore only, and has never shown her pussy.

Thanks, that means a lot. But yes, being at the mercy of porn I always have to build my stories around the content I have, rather than creating what I need. That said that limitation does kind of feed me, having to work out situations that fit the story/world I have and the content I can find. As someone with zero artistic skill it is however also my only option ;)

when I sent Riley a "dirty" SMS I get the following error message:

Error: <<lunchTextResult>>: errors within widget contents (Error: <<set>>: bad evaluation: undefined has no properties; Error: <<run>>: bad evaluation: undefined has no properties; Error: <<run>>: bad evaluation: undefined has no properties; Error: <<if>>: bad conditional expression in <<if>> clause: State.temporary.convo is undefined)

I'm really glad you got thru to the ending of the game Rudyboy!!

I got the same error message as Big.Joe.

I finished the game in 83 days with all the achievements and points. I hadn't finished the Purple Volcano line by then, having only gotten 2 of the 7 pictures in the Rileyh2 folder, maybe in a future version that could go a little faster.

Last year I made some suggestions about seeing some content when Riley is angry. I still think that would be a nice addition.

I did like the new option to text her at lunch!

I also think it might be nice to see some more Roxy content when they are on the business trip (or during a 2nd business trip) and possibly during the endgame.

Also in my wishlist for additional content would be a 4th office girl. Then you could talk to 2 of them 1 day and the other 2 the next day, so you can get on an easy talking schedule to grind through the game. Also it would increase the length to beat the game which would let you finish the purple volcano line without having to just waste time in the endgame if you want to see it all.

Thanks again for picking this game back up! I really like it!

I'm sure it has come up before, but quicksearching about her name didn't pull anything up; is anyone else having/had an issue with the Roxy SMS? Don't see a 'close' option for it.
Nevermind, I'm dumb, as the prophecy foretold.

Hmm, I can't seem to get this to error here. I've set up a test where I can fire off the text multiple times but it seems to keep working. From the error I can see the section of code which is failing but can't quite understand why it would if the script runs fine. What I'll do is add a catch to the previous lines so if anything goes wrong with sending the type of message to this code it will fall back to a basic 'Chat' message. We'll see if that helps. If either of you are able to see what the value of variable '_type' is at the point of failure that would be great.

Ok, yes that sounds like it needs tweaking some what! I'll do a play-through concentrating on that and see if I can find a better timescale.

Last year I made some suggestions about seeing some content when Riley is angry. I still think that would be a nice addition.
I'll look into this, I've gotten so used to not really angering her that I guess I don't think about it. Interestingly high anger would increase your chance of a negative outcome in the new lunch time texts, speaking of which...

I did like the new option to text her at lunch!
Cool! Glad you like it. I need to increase the number for each option, currently there are only 3-5 for each option and it needs to be way higher for a nice feel, probably more like 15-20 for each!

I also think it might be nice to see some more Roxy content when they are on the business trip (or during a 2nd business trip) and possibly during the endgame.
I originally planned for multiple business trips, but then that fell by the way side, I may look at bringing that idea back as it frees you up for some more in-depth downtown time. Adding something to the end story for her is a great idea! Actually maybe I should have a screen for each of the office girls too.. Damn it.. feature creep!!! :D

Hmmm, whist I'm not adverse to this it would at this point take a bit of working in to make her feel an organic part of the game as the other three interlace with each other sometimes, or with the main girls story. You make a good point in relation to the chat mechanic though. I'll have a think.

Thanks again for picking this game back up! I really like it!
Cool! Glad you've had fun with it. That's all I can ask for! :)

My error code when trying the dirty text at lunch is:

Yup it's definitely failing to find a type sometimes. Odd, not sure why that would be.. most annoying.
