"However, before you go thinking there isn't a lot of content, there are 13 possible animated scenes before the MC goes to sleep Wednesday night alone. Even if you blow it with every love interest available, you're still going to get 5 of them."

Hi dev, a question after reading that, if the player is still going to get 5 animated scenes despite rejecting it or screwing it up with the LI, does that mean those scenes are forced? or are they voyeur scenes where the MC spies on other characters?


Thanks.

Developer

There are a couple forced scenes in the first day, and a couple where the MC is telling a story about something that happened in his past later in the game as a means of bonding with another character. The other day one scenes are tied into the fact that the MC is a young man who takes a couple opportunities to 'handle his business himself' on what is an extremely emotionally charged day, particularly if the player decisions lead to ending the night alone. The player is given a few different options for what kind of fantasy he will imagine in the shower, or what video he (and the player) will watch on his bedroom PC while he does that. It's typical cheesy adult tube site fare. Do you want cheerleaders, pirates, or an elf princess tonight... Which movie character of the MC's favorite actress will he think about? That kind of thing. 

We all know what kind of game you're playing so I didn't that first day to be punishing if the LI you meet day one isn't your cup of tea. I also didn't want to make it automatic that the MC ends up with every girl in the game no matter what he does or what the player wants. Though I may add a linear tourist mode at some point, that's likely going to be a Patreon version feature if people actually even want it.  I am using the making of this game largely to skill build for another idea I had, so I worked some of the early experiments and rejects into the game, then recently tossed them out and re-did them because they were objectively terrible as the first few animations I ever made. 

As for voyeurism, there are no scenes in this game where the MC spies on another character in the way that is common within the genre. I'll spoil that there's an accidental walk in on someone, and an intentional walk in on someone else, but it's not an "I shouldn't be doing this, it's so wrong... but I'm going to otherwise the game stops" kind of thing. it's comedy in both cases and plays as such. Frankly I find that forced spying stuff a little off-putting as a player. Like, to each their own, I'm not here to kink shame, but it's my game and I'm not putting anything in I don't like. 

I'm not going to say you need a psychology degree to score in this game, whatever is in the water in this small Texas town has people really looking to get busy. But they basically tell you exactly what kind of content comes with pursuing them, and if you don't want it, don't like the character model, or just don't feel like it that random Tuesday, there's only that one early character that's forced on you as the player and if you don't like her, she won't appear again.

I hope that clarifies.
