Lots of great content. No plot. No love. No emotion or relationships. Perfect game for teenager.
I'm curious of the true adult level of porn VNs and or porn games to be honest that merges visuals with prose. Since it seems you know such a porngame, please share it with us.

so it makes sense to play with both settings once. I see.
Actually, TK being a bro already thought of how annoying it would be to have to replay the whole game just for variants of a few scenes. As long as you unlock the scene one way, you can watch it the other way in the Replay menu simply by flipping your Vanilla/Hardcore setting in options.

When I say, "Perfect game for a teenager", that is not an insult. A lot of successful books are for teenagers. However, real desire takes more time and frustration.
I didn't understand your remark as an insult, I was being honest when I apologized. Today I know that people looking for porn games want something with more meaning than simple sex scenes. The relationship between the characters, the player's involvement with the plot, sense of accomplishment, etc., are important things and I had no idea of this before (I thought the players just wanted porn).

So I feel a little guilty when someone who wants something with a little more meaning download my 1GB game, loses a few hours of life playing, and then discovers that it was just a comedy. Of course, it's not like I lose sleep nights because of this, but it does not hurt to write "sorry" hahha.

Anyway, with my English getting better I'm starting to feel more confident to do something with a bit more depth. As I've written here before, I'm preparing a more traditional Visual Novel, with its own graphics and no adult content, just to see if I'm able to create a fun game of this style.

Actually, my favorite is "Thinking About You". Again, mine is only one opinion. Every author has to have an audience in mind and I may not be yours. I liked your art, I thought the girls and the animations were very well done so you should be proud as you accomplished your objectives. However, I think that a large part of the success of Big Brother is due to the multiple frustrations the protagonist had before success. People started rooting for the kid.

Not sure if this message was meant for me. If so, the graphics and animations are not my merit, since I use Honey Select. As for the target audience, even mine clearly not being who wants something with something deeper, I could still have done something better in this regard. One of the things I would have liked to have done better at Solvalley was to give the player's satisfaction to feel that he won the girl. Basically there is no such thing in the game. In my next game this will be one of my goals. I want the player to feel that he has had some merit in what is happening in the game, not just following a story. But I think I've criticized my own game too much, lol. I'm going back to work!

If you plan on having any kind of grind in your next game there definitely should be a sense of satisfaction for winning her. BB never delivered that. At least not for me.

I think I just understood why I could not find Alexandra call 2 : I was in vanilla mode FailFish Besides, I want to say the dev that I find this game great as it is. Keep up the good work.

Started the game last night, and am enjoying it up to a point. I'm a bit concerned about the freshman girl who's name escapes me at the moment, but despite the declaimer at the start of the game that claims all characters represented is 18+ years old, I'm not aware of ANY high school systems where a freshman is 18 or older, unless the freshman had to repeat grades.

Besides that, plus a few borderline rapey scenes, I'm finding the humor in the game enjoyable. However, there is a bug with one of the beach house girl's dialog:

Oops! ;)

Love this game. Just when you think you've run out of girls, 3 more pop up. Hoping for an ethnic character too in the future. Not enough black girls in games to fuck. Can't wait to see more.

Love this game but have a issue with it that really hits a personal peeve of mine and that is the overuse of the word retard and its variants. It got to the point that I mentally blocked it the other issue for me was that I am out of hearts on the map lol I looked at the menu and the only girl that I can propose to is Lucy *sigh* as well that Sarah chick, think that is her name from the beach shower I only see her twiceafter that

Yeah, the Tatianna content needs a slight revisit... She is called so many names and is treated so absolutely terrible, just because her IQ is low, making her a slight bit open to manipulation... Her story line even has some dialogue between some of the Prom committee members, near the end of Tatianna's current content, that sounds so cliché and just thrown together almost, that it definitely needs a script revisit...

When you cap out your stats and the hearts stop showing up, that usually means the end of the current content has been reached... Best thing to do at that point is save game and wait for content updates... I ran into that at the end of .45 and once I started .5 it had some more content, not a huge amount more, but more... Also, there is some content that doesn't involve hearts, such as the Lottery at the market... If you win the lottery, some sexual content opens up with the woman who sells the tickets... But yeah, if the content seems to kind of end after your stats are maxed, then it's just a current version content wall... You can check out the marriage proposal to Lucy, which was a nice romantic ending, but save game first...

I didn't bother with a review update yet, mostly because there isn't enough new content in v0.5 to really spend a bunch of time critiquing it... I'll wait a few more versions...

Usualy during develepoment is bad idea to be switching from one game enigine (in this case mv) to other one (renpy) but seems that this time it worked out.
One negative thing thooght us that if you push nex (action putton) during scene it will skipp scene completely.
Also i wish that there where some way to check/know where girls are now you need check every place every day.

Other then those i think that this game is awsome and one of my favorite games in develepoment currently. and can see it having bright futere ahead (meaning that lots of peapole will enjoy it)
Renpy is currently one of the most popular engine.

thats what makes game a game. why ppl look for cheats for every game? what the point to PLAY then? same easily you can just download CG folder and look pics in just seconds.....

im 101% sure i will never understand point/any positive thing in cheating....
You don't need to. In my opinion cheating has its own charm.

And what part of having to start over and over and over again due to updates that change content in order to see it or get to the new content which can easily be behind hours (if not days) of grinding through other content over and over again did you not get (especially true in the Son of a Bitch and Big Kuyash games)? I have better things to do with my time than replay the exact same content for hours before seeing new content?

You're against cheating, well that's good. I don't cheat either when it's something new but when I have to replay the same material I've already seen 6 times, I get tired of it and thus I use the cheats to jump past that (or reduce the amount of grind it takes) then stop cheating to enjoy the new content as it's intended, usually (though in some games, being unable to get more than one of an item that is a gift and takes a large chunk out of a day to go back and get a second is something I won't stand for... aka bullshit busy work and I'm staring at you Son of a Bitch & Big Kuyash... 1/2 a day to go get flower and get back to do it once is NOT cool).
I like to cheat my game. I am not a fan of grind at all. And sometimes a little bit extra money can do some miracle. Lol.

About cheating: I do not know if it is possible to open the console in the distribution version. If it is possible, just write "money = x" (x = value you want). I did not encrypt the scripts, if someone wants to know the names of the other variables to modify, just read the script.rpy.

Yeah, the Tatianna content needs a slight revisit... She is called so many names and is treated so absolutely terrible, just because her IQ is low, making her a slight bit open to manipulation... Her story line even has some dialogue between some of the Prom committee members, near the end of Tatianna's current content, that sounds so cliché and just thrown together almost, that it definitely needs a script revisit...
Could you elaborate more? I can review these events and improve them.

About the characters being rude: you're right, but deep down all the characters are good. What happens with Tatiana is a good example: all the time she hears the other characters speak badly of her, but at the same time she is the one who receives the most sincere expressions of affection in the whole game.

The only really evil action I intend to do is at the end of Aya, but she will still redeem herself later.

It is great to see the way you think. I am sure that, with your attitude, you will keep growing. The hardest thing is to tell a story well; even a joke. You might want to read a bit on Literotica to see how good authors structure an erotic story. Learning a new language is hard. It took me five years to learn to write a publishable article in Spanish and spelling is easy in Spanish (verbs are hard).
