If I can make a suggestion for a future update, add maybe information on when to perform an event with someone because sometimes I spend 2 in-game weeks trying to start a scene (for example, the one with Bianca and Marian). And I don't know if this is a bug, but sometimes when I visit Angelina, the action symbol (exclamation mark) appears, but she herself does not.

Also, is Bianca's pregnancy the result of sex in the living room without a condom, or do you need to go further in the plot? (At the time of writing this, I'm on my 3rd car payment, with no other clues).

I see, I usually try make very clear on the previous event what you have to do next.
For Bianca, you need to progress a bit before she can get pregnant, you will see a notification on the left corner saying that when you can.

I would like to agree that a bit more information in advance could help improve playability of the game, in particular regarding Bianca's pregnancy (and, I hope, many additional ones). To be honest, I was very excited that the possibility of pregnancy seems to be heavily baked into the game's structure, and I was intrigued to see how it plays out, but after quite a number of hours played and over 100 days into the events of the game I've yet to reach the point where any pregnancies are possible. From a story standpoint, it makes perfect sense, and even from a gameplay standpoint I could see it as a nice way to reward players for putting in the effort. That said, a couple lines of info up front to alert players to the fact that pregnancy will NOT be happening early on would help temper expectations for new players. Also, perhaps it should be stated up front on the itch.io page that currently only Bianca can get pregnant.

Now, that said, I am enjoying the game so far. It's an interesting concept, and it's clear that a lot of work has gone into it. I love the music choices, and the art is a cut above most similar-looking games. I look forward to future updates, especially ones indicating additional characters that can get pregnant. Keep up the good work!

I agree with that, I'm adding more info about how the game works. I'm, glad you are enjoying the game and I'm always open to more constructive criticism :D

Good deal. I have, I believe, finished the current build, at least insofar as the story progression and bonus content (which, frankly, is how I read this version of the pregnancy content). I am very intrigued as to what comes next, particularly as regards to Aurora's suggestion and Maribel's apparent kink (love that one scene). I am saddened that the first pregnancy goes by so fast, but again I see how it fits plot-wise, and if Akira comes up with a good solution for, I guess, blunting the force of Bastet's power that'll hopefully mean the subsequent pregnancies (of which I still hope there will be many) can be even more fun.

That said, a couple of notes/ suggestions? It's interesting that Bianca's status never changes from "This girl cannot get pregnant yet" (or whatever the phrase was). Dare I hope it only changes once the girls can become pregnant independent of the plotline, or was that just a minor thing you decided to leave for now? I also noticed her milking stats did not change... yet, despite the clearly higher yield. Incidentally, I love the milking scene where Bianca's pregnancy is finally incorporated fully, but it feels like rather a big jump to me from just milking her like normal; maybe a scene with a cute little bump and somewhat bigger boobs where they comment on her already increasing yield? I know that devs probably dread pregnancy fans because fully incorporating such a complex process into these games takes a lot of extra work; just know any and all such work is much appreciated! Along those lines, adjustments to pregnant characters' appearances in standing CGs and as many cutscenes as you dare would be equally appreciated, as would any efforts to make pregnant bellies look as good as breasts do in the game (I know that is a huge weakness in the Koikatsu studio/ character generator, even with some of the better mods out there). And perhaps pregnant versions of the lewd scenes we have on replay with Bianca (and later others)? I have lots of thoughts, but I've already said enough for now. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to an update!

things like that are limited by the systems I made for the game when I first start coding the backend, like the "This girl cannot get pregnant yet" bug, but I plan to fix that in the near future even more since pregnancy is a core part of the game
