I just tested the password in the “Dev Notes” for the Mac version, and it works. Be careful not to include any extra spaces when you copy the password.

THIS. For some strange reason when I copy the password it picks up a leading space which results in the pasted password being incorrect. If in doubt, paste the password into Notepad and copy without that space from there. I encountered this for the Win version as well.

DEVLOG #2
We've already finished the beta version and fixed quite a few minor issues, while adding a few other features. It should be released sometime this week.

WARNING!
Saves will always be compatible between stable versions, meaning between 0.3 and 0.4. Stable versions do not include a letter in the version.
0.3A is an ALPHA version, 0.3B is a BETA version, and 0.3 is the final stable version.


Here is the changelog for version 0.3B:
Fixed : Clipping in some renders.

Added : Saves can be named now.
Added : 4 animations in the Twins' scene.

As I've already mentioned, work has begun on V0.4, but I'll never give an estimate as to when an update will be released.
I'm planning on a 2-month development cycle per update, which will result in a release every 2–3 months.

Spoiler: SPOILER V0.4

Hell yeah! Our first "new render" of the game. Looks so good!

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Turns out I had to use different app to unzip the files.
'Unarchiver works with the PW, 'Archive Utility (built into MacOS) don't. Go figure !

Cheers

I like this here but to be fair I don't know if it's a good idea to be directly doing this and comparing side by side like this. I just think it'll bring negative attention to Dynasty and put it at risk but that's just me.

You have a valid point. I've decided to delete my previous comparison posts out of respect for DG and Dynasty. I don't want to bring any negative attention to this project.

Spoiler: Results

For those that voted and saw the posts anyway, meaning you know what this post is referencing, the results were 4:4 for "Mom" and 1:9 for both "Marie" and "Lori". I had a strong gut feeling our resident badass-dev's renders would be the preferred screenshots and I'm glad I was correct.

The overarching intent of those posts (and this one) was just to say - and show that others agreed through their votes - "Keep up the amazing work @Dark Games."

I hope the sentiment was perceived as intended. Nothing but love and support coming from over here!

Fuckin Great change to the twins. They look much better. I was so sad when my favorite fetish (twincest) showed up right before being cancelled. I hope we get more of them real quick...just in case. Thanks for bringing this back.

Fuckin Great change to the twins. They look much better. Their tits were a bit janky in the original. I was so sad when my favorite fetish (twincest) showed up right before being cancelled. I hope we get more of them real quick...just in case. Thanks for bringing this back. Also...i picked to include Milfs...but honestly the only thing i wanna see out of them is 3somes with their girls. Is that potentially happening or are you going to avoid incest for whatever reason?

Edit: Also...there's a lot of loli type characters in this game. My preference tends to lean to hebe...any plans to include a few of them? The twins seemed to be close before but fixing their tits seems to have aged them down a couple years...they still look massively better than before though.

 

[DaddyMasterson]

You included your new message in your quote of the last post. At a glance, it just looks like you quoted yourself and didn't add anything. (Edit: Before the edit )

Also,

The worst part about the mother-daughter part, is that people complain, but if only they knew... Well, I'll shut up, no spoilers today.

Based on how pregnancy works, wouldn't that be statistically very low odds...unless you are referring to one of the MILFs, if they are young enough

so you're saying there is a chance? as long as the odds are non zero then save scumming will save the day =)

Okay I don't want to sound like a dumbass or something but this game needs a walkthrough and gallery mod. Idk if it's my stupidity but I just realized I missed out a lot of path and scenes cause there's no walkthrough

the Universal Renpy Mod is a thing. every time there is a menu you can see a list of all visible and hidden choices, what their conditions are to be visible, and what variables have their values adjusted making that choice. not a literal walkthrough, but useful enough as one

dragging to select text can copy an invisible trailing space, non breaking space, newline, or other non printing character depending on how the DOM of the page is designed. if you drag from right to left instead of left to right it reduces the odds of this character being picked up when its a possibility. so if you frequenty get passwords refused, just drag select from right to left to see if it helps. wont always but can sometimes

^This, and I've played Serenia. If you know, you know.

Did you just try to teach me about URM mate? I know what's a URM is as I use that whenever I play a grindy sandbox game. What I want is like the same as SSAP walkthrough (and gallery would be nice ).

 

[ontach]

For reasons that only make sense to the dev, if you go further with the twins and get all their scenes, you don't get the final scene with Lori. You just get asked to save and then the game ends. Is there a hidden time dynamic we don't know about? Or are their paths exclusive?

IMHO I think they were just being friendly and providing information about a free option for a walkthrough.

But the Walkthrough and Replay gallery is provided by Dark Games if you choose to support the project on their Ko-Fi.

While i was replying to you i doubt you didnt know what it was. Still worth mentioning in regards to a WT request comment as others might not be aware of what URM is. Actual WTs are better obviously.

That aside, i've never understood why anyone would ever even CARE if a gallery exists. You have the images/ folder to just directly open after all. its not like rpa files are any more difficult to unarchive than any other zip. i mean if the gallery had extensive filter options to limit what you were looking for i could understand, but i've seen like 3 galleries **ever** that did a good enough job on filters that it was more convenient than just opening the images/ folder directly

Wait, what? How does that work? Do you just choose to not go with Elera in the elevator and then you get a scene with Lori?

Edit: I just skipped through to see what you were talking about. Wow, I didn't know that scene existed, sweet! But to respond to the, "reasons that only make sense to the dev," comment. What makes sense to me, is that when you go through all the scenes with the Twins, their Mom enters at the end. Which means that encounter with her needs to play out for you to be able to leave and go back to your apartment to have the scene with Lori. Since that scene with the Twin's Mom isn't completed yet, the MC has no way of getting back to his apartment, yet. I don't think their paths are going to be exclusive, they just haven't been able to tie-in together yet.

If you think about it for a second, you'll understand.

Spoiler: Spoiler Twins

If you meet up with the twins and go all the way, their mother shows up, and the rest happens in V0.4. If you don't go all the way with the twins, you go home early and meet up with Lori.
So this scene with Lori will also happen after the twins in V0.4.

It makes sense, but since I don’t want to spoil anything, I won’t mention it.

Agreed, that does make sense, although it implies that there is a time dynamic - if you spend too much time with the twins, it is too late to meet up with Lori in this version. Otherwise after the twins he could have gone to his apartment and Lori.

Spoiler: Spoiler

Not at all. There’s no concept of time, it’s just a scene that happens at one point if you choose option A and at another point if you choose option B.
The scene with Lori, happens no matter which option you choose, but if you don’t want to spend more time with the twins, then you see it right away, otherwise, you see it later.
I don’t see what’s so complicated about that.
To sum it up, this scene was in the old version, so I included it. I could have cut it and only put it in V0.4, but I promised to keep all the content from V0.3. Now I’m free to do whatever I want since everything will be new to you.

No worries man. I understood what you intended. Just want to keep it lowkey for now so there is no threat to the game. Your overall point was very valid

Hey! You're the dev. Please don't mind my nitpicking, and please develop the game the way YOU feel is right. My point was: regardless of the duration of the twins' scene, or even if that scene was missed altogether if he didn't hold the elevator for Elera, he could still have had the scene with Lori. @DaddyMasterson however points out that the scene with the twins' mom needs to play out before he can do that, and that answers my question.

Waiting eagerly for V0.4.
