Version 0.3.1 Public Release Schedule

No, New Game+ is going to get added much later. We're going to need an actual ending first, and that's still far away.

In the new game+ option available yet? If so how many days do i have to play out to reach endpoint to restart is (+) option?

Sure, but I don't see the point. It should be pretty obvious to anyone playing the game right now that the princess isn't arriving in the current version anyway, so a set date is meaningless at this point. I am deliberately vague about her arrival in the game for that reason. Specifying that her exact arrival date is up in the air won't really tell players anything they have any use for right now. My opinion, anyway.

Sorry, seems I didn't make myself clear enough... I meant, make it mor obvious in the game (!) that it is still an undecided date, for when the princess will arrive... People don't read stuff here in the messages or in readmes, y'know ;) Sometimes you have to force-feed it to them ^^

That's pretty much what I'm doing. It's not that the traveling itself takes that much time, but they aren't rushing off to do the coronation right away. There are preparations for them to do in the capital too, which is my primary excuse in the story for now.

Maybe You could just make it "a yet undecided date in the near future" for the princess' arrival? Considering how travel was done in the days of old and all the stuff that can happen during such a journey, that would make it easy to somewhen put a final date into the game ;)

Not the recommended way to create a work of art, but if it works for you that's great. "Whatever turns you on..." :-)

Don't worry too much about this aspect of the game yet. There are many tweaks I can do, both to game mechanics and to story, to avoid any problems with time available before the Princess arrives. In this early part of development, it's more about throwing my ideas into the pot and seeing how they work, and then adjusting things afterward.

As I see it, the MC needs to both gain experience with seducing many different personalities of women, and learn more magic spells, before he can attempt to seduce the Princess. That will take time, and with limited daily activities I don't see how it can happen in only two months. Maybe you could have an uprising take place off camera to keep her from traveling outside of the city/castle.

New Game+ will be implemented only after we've reached the end of the story (which may happen before the rest of the game is complete. We'll see). It doesn't make much sense before that point anyway. Releases will be monthly. I'm doing this in my spare time for now, so there's only so much I can do.

In terms of in-game time? I had originally planned for one month, but it appears that there will be so much content that this will be too little time. Let's assume 1 1/2 to 2 months right now, and then we'll see where it goes based on what content ends up in the game. :)

Thank you for the kind comments. The game will be updated on a monthly schedule, with the next release appearing at the end of December.

How many month before Princess arrived?

I think you mentioned this before, but is there a way to start a New Game+ at this time? I feel like I hit the content end and now I want to go back through. Also, enjoying the game! Only thing that would make it better is faster releases, but I am betting it is a lot of work. Keep it up!

A+ for writing/story. Funny, contextual, hot. Pixie dick-hump was the best. Plus an actual mystery to unravel... A+ for renders. Real girls. Realistic proportions. Totally immersive. Fun animations, multiple perspectives. A+ for gameplay/code. WOW! Fun puzzles that make SENSE and are hot at the same time. A for project management. Nice re-use of backgrounds, scenes. That was a fuck-ton of game, well spaced, for 100 meg . Goes to A+ (and I bump up my patronage) if dev delivers on a tight monthly schedule.

Cheers all the same :)

Heh, I suppose it is. There was a surprising number of players who wondered why they weren't seeing new content after grinding for months in-game. Figured I might as well throw a little courtesy their way.

haha belle I gather "Added brief note when reaching the end of certain types of content. Because this is a non-linear game, such warnings will not appear for all content. If you find yourself grinding to discover new scenes, odds are you have seen everything." is aimed at the OCD completionists like myself eh :D cheers for the warning notes though with update .

It's just a hotfix to prevent the loading of old saves. I'll update this post to reflect this. Thanks.

My understanding working on a patch 3.1 for the use of old saves. Is this true and no content issue?
