Hey! Im trying out your game, and before starting it up I noticed that you wrote on this page "Your comments to this first version of Crossroads are highly appreciated, and will be taken into account for updates." and so I figured I'll write down my thoughts while I play

Just for the very beginning there are 2 things that I wanted to observe (rather state my observation) here, and a question that I wanted to ask!

1. Is the game supposed to be silent? I have a feeling it is just considering what I paraphrased from you ^ there.

2. In that initial character name creation/gender ""choice"" - I can definitely understand wanting to have a small gag about not being able to go forth as a woman considering it would be a lot to expect that you'd done that when this is the first game for y'all and its only on version 1.1 - but having it boot back to menu is not a good feeling. Since I know Ren'py, I know I can fast forward back to that point fairly quickly, but my advice would be if you want to keep that joke in - rather than having it boot back to menu like that - it should just loop back to your character waking up. He could remark like "Oh god am I in a neverending loop? Last time i woke up as a girl and freaked out - thank god I'm a guy again now.... what was my name again??" or something of that nature.

Question: Is there a way I can contact y'all outside of leaving a comment here? I figure I'll probably take some pretty detailed notes so it would be nice to not clog up the comments section of your games page yk?

Looking forward to seeing what you were able to create!

don't die in the pit

You should look it up! In fact I'll link to it right here! Just a cool in-joke in gaming, and it also just worked in a compare-contrast sense for that comment.
Also I don't know why I didn't realize that you had said this in your comment on 4/19 but Mario does have the ability to crouch in his 2D side-scroller titles. I can say with certainty that it's a mechanic in Super Mario Bros 3, and now that I'm thinking on it its definitely in 2 as well, but I'm almost certain that it was even in the original Super Mario Bros. Maybe I misunderstand what you mean but in 2 and 3 it's a pretty important mechanic for gameplay, specifically for 3 because of the flutes.

Samus does have the morph-ball ability, so you are right that she turns into a ball. Theres a very famous Metroid meme titled "Why can't metroid crawl" that I was making a reference to. Sorry if i ended up confusing you with that.

You can't rapid-fire because the shoot button already functions as a charged shot when held. I do agree though that remapping the secondary Jump or Shoot key on controller (for keyboard I think Shift would make the most sense) to be a continuous stream of uncharged shots would be a beneficial change. However, it would break the games' balancing if the player could auto-fire at anywhere near the rate of the Jet-Ski. Either it would need to be probably ¹∕₃ the rate of the Jet-Ski, or fire in 3 shot bursts. Have a feeling that 3 shot bursts would be a better fit in a few ways.

There's absolutely no chance that they add crouching or crawling to this. It's a pretty faithful implementation of the original couple Mega Man games' design philosophy, and just as Metroid can't crawl, Mega Man can't crouch

This game is ingenious and I love that it now exists. I saw that you were planning to make an expanded version of this, which seems like a no brainer to me because I feel like the potential/possibilities for expanding on this are beyond vast. Good luck in your endeavors, and thanks for making something that is simultaneously unique, interesting, and genuinely fun!

Doggy, but i think within media i prefer cowgirl

The only suggestion I can think of that is maybe not super obvious and hopefully manageable to ask, is key bindings for the different commands when having sex/streaming. My idea for that is:

1 - Manual
2 - Slow
3 - Medium
4 - Fast
(Or use `123 a-la the sims)

Tab - Hide/Unhide comments
Q - Toggle X-ray vision

A - Hand
S - Mouth
D - Remove
Z - Unzip
X - Position change menu
C - End Stream prompt menu

Also, I think it would be cool if you added a second Iris slot to allow heterochromia. Have it so the Left Eye governs both unless you have an Iris in the right slot, yk? Similar to how mono/stereo inputs & outputs work in audio engineering, where the Left input defaults to mono if there is nothing in the Right input.

Idk if this is a thing in some way, as im sure there's a lot of stuff I havent seen, but i think it would be cool if you could make MC smarter via spending time on websites so he can answer some of Sexbots questions when initiating dialogue, like the stock anomalies etc.

Thanks for making a truly awesome game! Im excited to see how it continues to develop :)

She does sorta have an excitement meter, which is the omega symbol on her lower abdomen, as it fills in like a meter until she orgasms, then emptying/resetting.

actually im dumb, i either needed to install flash properly which i for some reason forgot to do, or simply needed to run the .sfw version instead of the macOS one

Hey, im also having trouble getting this to run on mac. I tried following this link but its broken :/ what should i look up to get there?
