This is the best news I've had all day! for us semi-paupers who supported the dev by buying the game, but not doing a monthly payment.
There's just nothing else I've played with such great character interaction and styles. being able to make all the girls extremely hot and f'able while also having them be distinctly unique, fully realized characters, and a properly kickass gripping story, is a huge task in and of itself. Add in the quality graphics and animations, nothing even comes close.
There's no better VN free or otherwise for me.
Android phones have a huge amount of different specs and different manufacturers have overlays and apps that can conflict with other apps. Try using safe mode and see if it boots, if it does there then its something on the phone breaking it. But keeping something working on all devices is something that requires a lot of man hours and resources, and this is made by 1 guy so.
really great response, thank you! And yes as a solo dev your time of course should be spent on the story and actually important things. I personally like the education level, as it makes the point that as you expand your powers and influence, you actually have responsibilities if you want to be good and do things right. it's a great way of showing, not just telling the burden of being "good" while still being fairly entertaining. If you want to be the evil sex god-king sure forget the college, the girls are only good for one thing so who cares if they are learning, maybe even add a shatter-esque way to skip the whole upkeep chore entirely for those who don't like it.
I love the world and characters, I enjoy the surprise of seeing special things on different days, and I really like seeing Lyx around town (please, I need more crazy witch-scientist goblin in my life, also I want to see what chaos would ensue were Lyx and Roxy to meet)
But yeah for me, the most boring and annoying part was the day/night cycle interrupting what I was doing, but then not having any other effect or impact besides places being open. It just feels like its the same week on repeat, so some slight change or something that happens monthly/bi-monthly (college exams, club events, harvest season? idk) would give a great feeling of time passing and the world being more alive.
You're absolutely right though, this is more of an after-main-story-development addition than something to be done soon. Keep on doing the wonderful job you are doing! (also donated because of your great response to my winging just so you know :D)
I'm sure it will be improved upon and yeah hard time gates kinda suck, though idk sometimes when it narratively makes sense, maybe a slightly different scene or outcome for taking too long might be good. But I'm more talking about like self-contained random things like oh a storm hurt the farmhouse, pay x to fix it or lose it's bonus, or exam week at the college, better study up. Kinda thing. Nothing too consequential but feels like things are happening as time goes on.
Lots of things to love about this game. The story and world is interesting and compelling, and the writing is a good balance between silly and serious. the characters look great and the scenes are hot! Dev updates and interaction is also much appreciated.
One critique though is the passage of time doesn't really matter or do anything yet, different things happen on weekends/weekdays which is great but once you get to act2 you could wait 30 days and nothing would change but your passive income. Random events/crises that can pop up anytime or other things that need upkeep or missions or whatever would be a great way to make the world feel more alive.
