I'm sorry it's not done yet, folks. I'm still working on it, but my entire family is still dealing with the aftereffects of what happened to us, and it's really difficult to be productive in a space where you can no longer feel safe. At the very least, I can promise it'll be out before Christmas. 

Sorry again, and thank you for your patience. This year has been one thing after another, but I'm doing whatever I can to get things back to as close to normal as possible, at least for next year.

Thank you so much. 

It has been an interesting month, unfortunately. It'll probably be a while before we feel completely safe in the house again. but we haven't had any more "unexpected visitors" for a few days, so things are slowly going back to normal.

There are suggestive/smut scenes that you're given the option to turn on or off at the start of the game.

There's also an optional 18+ patch that changes the images in the smut scenes to show full nudity.

Hi, all! I don't want to make a separate post for this because it's not guaranteed, but the release may be delayed from the 20th to another day this month. I will still be aiming for it, but we'll see how things go.

In short, there have been 3 attempted break-ins at my house as of last week. We've filed a police report, but we don't feel safe yet as neither of the suspects have been caught. We strongly suspect they'll be back again soon. :(

Yes, that's correct.

We've never sold the Expansion Pack through the Steam storefront for any period of time. I have confirmed with Steam that this is the case as of today. Please contact Steam Support directly for further clarification. 

> But my actually question is if this DLC shows in my Steam Library, so I will get these 2 route DLC, right?

The Steam code you redeemed only accounts for 1 route (Fashionista) on Steam. We're splitting it into 2 separate DLCs for Steam due to the way Steam releases work; we cannot release half of a DLC alone and place it for sale, so their pages must be split OR we'd have to wait to release the DLC on Steam for several months past the itch.io release. And the latter would make no one happy. (Elaborating on why before anyone else asks about it. ;;)

Unless Steam adds a method for us to add the 2nd DLC to the key that was already given out in the meantime, the other Steam key will be distributed via itch.io when the DLC pages are split & approved.

That's how it shows when you redeem a key for it from itch.io. You can check the Steam page for the DLC below to confirm you cannot purchase it. It simply says "This item is not yet available", with no button to add to cart. Unless you somehow hacked Steam, it is impossible to purchase at the moment.

You can't purchase the expansion pack DLC on Steam before its release; you would've gotten the key for it from itch.io. We can add more than 1 Steam key to a purchase, so the key for the other will be added on itch.io at a later time.

Yes!

The Steam DLC will be separated into 2 separate purchases 1-2 weeks prior to release. Individually, they will cost a bit more, but there'll be a DLC bundle that lets you purchase the remaining route for a discounted rate, so in the end, it'll be the same price as on itch.io. That was the best solution I could come up with, although it's a bit more convoluted than I'd like.

Yes, it will be released. We're just behind schedule due to COVID at the moment.

Thank you so much!

I'm very tired that this has come up a second time in a strangely similar manner, where the poster doesn't seem to have actually fully read the scene in question. Just to be clear, the scene is NOT rape, nor was it intentioned to be rape. The Main Character verbally consents the entire way through. The player has to go out of their way to pick the "Power through it" option (which also has verbal consent to continue) as there are 2 other options there, one of which you don't even mention? Which is to stop the anal sex entirely and switch to oral. 

I'd like to assume this was posted with good intentions, but there are so many inconsistencies with the actual game content that I'm not convinced this isn't a troll post. I'm locking this thread, and any similar threads in the future will be deleted on sight.

It's a bit ridiculous that this needs to be done, but here is proof the MC  is consenting.

-------------------------------------------------------

The main character says this prior to the scene in the shower.

MC "Good. Now, fuck me before I freeze my ass o—"

Some more lines prior to the actual sex.

            "My eyes gravitate towards his knuckles as he cracks them, the material of his shirt stretching against his toned chest as he breathes in deeply. He's figuring out what to do to me — how he'll do me. His eyes are slowly drinking in my body."
            "Everything suddenly sounds deafeningly loud in comparison to his absolute silence.

            MC "What's wrong?"

A couple of lines later, right before the sex begins.

            "I can see the lewd thoughts materialize in his head while he decides what to do with my body. Now, if only he'd do it so we can get somewhere."

            MC "Right about what?"

            BF "We should both take responsibility for our actions."

            MC_t "Sweet Samhain."

Now, during the actual sex scene.

                    "As the water warms us, [BF_name]'s dick hardens, and my body can't take any more waiting."

                    MC "Fuck me now!"

Also during the scene.

                BF "You're okay with this, right?"

                    "[BF_name] is inside me, and not in a way I've experienced in a long time. I stand still, trying hard not to move a single muscle in my body while I adjust to the sensation."

                    BF "Hey. If you want me to..."

                    "He starts to pull out, causing my gut to tighten. It's bad — not awful but not great, either."

                        MC_t "What do you say when someone is balls-deep in your pooper!?"

                "I have to grab him by the arm to stop him from moving."

                MC "Wait a second."

And so on.

> The prick gets angry at you for not enjoying being raped analy and leaves your house to never come back. 

This is not what happens. Again, I'm not convinced you've actually read through the scene.  

iOS--almost certainly not as the game contains mature content by default and we've heard that getting games onto their shop may still result in their removal. That just isn't worth the trouble for a small developer like us. 

Android, we can't say no for sure, but the game and its UI aren't built for mobile. It would take a lot of modifications to make the game suitable for a smaller screen, the cost of which would need to be calculated.

The biggest chance the game has to be ported is if a mobile publisher asks to license the games for mobile and they do the work, but that's unlikely, so the chances are quite low.

It sounds like your game might not be updating properly. You shouldn't need to be overwriting your game folder to update it; simply unzip the new version and open the .exe once, and it should retrieve your previous save files. Just make sure to copy the patch over into the correct spot.

The graphics aren't supposed to match the action but the corresponding personality you're raising points for. Otherwise, the player might not know who that stat is intended for.

The only guide we're aware of is this one: https://signed-and-sealed-with-a-kiss.fandom.com/wiki/Bad-Boy_Boyfriend_Script

It's not up to date with the latest version of the game, but it should still work for the most part.

You will need to contact itch.io's website support directly to figure out what's going on. https://itch.io/support

Sorry about that. Fixed!

Right after I said that, I found a way to get it working again. Will have a patch out later tonight. 

Alright, thanks. I can recreate the problem, but there... doesn't seem to be any particular reason for it to happen. The code itself is unchanged from the previous version, and there are no logic errors in it. I'm honestly pretty baffled. At this point, I can only assume the bug has to do with a game engine update, maybe? I'll keep looking for ways to work around it.

Yes, that choice is meta humor, not a bug.

Fixed, thank you.

Are you playing on Normal difficulty or higher? Easy difficulty prevents you getting from the high-stat endings.

Thanks for the report. Are you using the Original Sprite DLC?

There's no outright "dom/sub" option. It's an additional choice (or branch) where your character gets to take the lead at some point during the R18 scene. That said, the flirty MC personality is more forward/dominant in general than the other personalities, in terms of overall script (including outside the smut scenes) if you're looking for more of a lifestyle option.

it is already out! Now that I think about it, I'll edit the update so there's less confusion.

I'm unfortunately not sure why it wouldn't let you download the game. You can maybe try doing the download recovery via e-mail option here: https://itch.io/support

If that doesn't work, this sounds like something you'll need to contact itch.io support for directly as I can see that you purchased the game and should have access to it. I can confirm that other users are able to download the game from itch.io without issue.

Did you get the e-mail version of the update notice we sent out through itch.io last night? At the bottom of that e-mail, there should be a direct link to download the game's latest build. That one should work. 

You should be able to just hit the Download button under the SSWK image and download the latest build. Is it giving you en error?

Yep, I checked and it looks to be attached to your account properly. You should be able to just download it from the game's store page, or by pressing "My Library" under "Explore".

Where did you purchase the game? Are you sure logged into the account you purchased it under?

It was a bug. Thanks for letting us know! It's been fixed.

The updated build has been uploaded to all storefronts already. If you're on Steam, you might need to check your update queue and enable it.

We'll look into changing it for next week. For now, if you hover over each of the choices, the text will turn dark blue.

Thank you! We're glad you're enjoying it! :)

The update is now live on Steam. It should update automatically, but you may also need to check your update queue for it.

No worries, the Steam update has been released and should be live. Just let us know if there are any issues.

Going to add this here for those who might be curious. The Kickstarter for the Expansion Pack will be moved to early next week, most likely Monday or Tuesday. The rest of this week(end), I will be taking a short break and putting out any emergency bug fixes as needed (although, hopefully, there won't be any).
