Shadows Over Manston v.016

Windows:
MAC:
Linux:

A couple of the endings to the paths were riddled with bugs, so there will be a bug fix that adds too more paths very shortly. This will only affect the Dark Hannah and Dusk paths, so the main update is unaffected.

Considering how small some of the updates for the game were, an actual changelog would be great to decide if dl would be worth it.

I dont get the point where people ask about the amount of contents in a game where there are only a couple of versions available. I mean, everyone knows the fact that the first version will be all about the introduction and that kind of stuff of the games and the next version will be a small build up to the story. Sure there are games which goes full on fap mode in the first release itself and I do realize the fact that fapping is our ultimate goal but we are playing games and games has to be full of quality contents such as good story lines and amazing adult contents. Only then a game will be enjoyable. If someone wants to just fap at something why dont they go and watch some pure porn? And this applies to each and every game. Ive seen a lot of comment sections of new games and all they do is ask 'HOW MUCH CONTENT?'. Its one of the most irritating things to read and please, everyone stop asking those questions and enjoy what you have.
I think it may have to do with them downloading and using up their data for the month if there's nothing to show for it. Atleast it not used as much as " when's the next release, any walkthroughs or is their a patch" .

I'll be honest, I'm British, we leave High School at
16. I thought I'd Americanise it because everything asset wise is American, and I thought you could get held back and have 18 Year Olds still in school this way, whereas normally they'd be too old.

Secondly to teach in a school here you have to a degree in teaching, so by making them failures forced to do gym as just a non-examined credit it would enable me to explain why exactly a cop is being given that job without the right qualifications.

I also had planned two of the characters being incredibly embarrassed about even being at school as they were supposed to graduate top of their class the year before, and this would lead to a bullying path by the other girls with non-intervention.

I'll take it onboard and have a think though, like I said, it's not in the game yet, so can be changed.

On another note, to answer the other questions, you cannot violently rape anybody in this game, nor is there any femdom (there will be lesdom if a certain route is followed, but not of the MC). I have about 20 renders left before the next update, hope to have it out by the end of the weekend.
There are also 19 yr old seniors, it just depends on their date of birth as to when they start.

Possibly it might go up to 5 minutes of content if I do? Generally speaking Devs get sponsors after proving they are serious about developing a game by releasing a series of good content updates over time. A good idea and good renders isn't all it takes to make a game commercially successful. Good content and consistent development is.

Don't get me wrong I like game, the story, the renders, everything is great.
But let's look at financially successful games. One of the best examples I can think of is GGGB.
Eva pumps out a preview, an alpha, a beta and a final as consistently as the tide comes in and goes out.
You can take her release schedule to the bank and borrow against it.
Last I looked she was making somewhere along the lines of 7k dollars a month.

I am not knocking the Dev of this game. We all have lives to lead. But jumping on me for making an observation does nothing to help him either. I am not an early adopter, I never have been. But I put my money where my mouth is when I see a game is up and running. This game isn't at that stage yet.
