Well, I downloded the file via Pixeldrain and the compressed one, always the same error. And: it is only V07.2.R. This may soud stupid: I read the above, but where do I download "directly from LC"? Thank you.

It's normal that you can't continue, as the continuation of this path doesn't exist yet! You're playing V0.7.2 and this path only exists in V0.7.3.

What points or choices specifically do you need for it to trigger?

Need to have seen Macy in hospital at the chap3 start , then it should fire just before Caroline talks to you while you pick up Leana from school

Shitty formatting, but maybe it will cut down on some of the questions.

Thanks for this. As much as I like this game and respect Ketzal's wishes for its complexity, it has to me become very difficult and tiresome finding paths and save points. Have restarted the game several times since last update. Will try your guide.

[Edit] Thank you for your effort writing this all out! It worked.

You are a hero. Couldn't figure out how to get the Clem scene thinking it was on Alice's path and the lake.

Yeah, following the thread (I must state I do read it bec of the condescention of even a moderator), led me to believe the same. Hero indeed.

Game is frustrating, too easy to miss scenes and then you have to start over to fix it. Don't get me wrong, it looks great but I'm debating whether this annoyance is worth it. The walkthrough only shows you points, so there are many things missable. Which is the exact opposite of what a walkthrough is for. The different versions only compounds the problem as it's vague which path applies to the released update. I donated on SS but after playing the latest update I won't be renewing my subscription. I'll just wait for a gallery unlocker or a proper walkthrough to be put out.

Hope you take this as constructive criticism, good luck on your game Ketzal.

My opinion on this kind of criticism is that people want everything effortlessly. I will never understand the pleasure of playing with a guide. For me, missing scenes is the best way to discover the game. I realize now that I must be the only one who enjoys the pleasure of discovery. I didn't want the replay gallery because people only play it to unlock scenes, I don't see the point. I didn't want the WT because people only play it for points and need to be guided. That's all my opinion, and I can understand people's frustration. It's certainly the times and the ease of today's games. I'm a gamer from another time.
To come back to the game. There are two paths and that's it. Either Harem or not. You just have to choose in the office which path to take or not. The rest is just scenes based on your choices. Missing a scene is normal if you haven't made certain decisions. But again, I understand and respect some people's frustration.

I think for the most part if you follow the current wt you will get what you want. There was only one scene with Alice that I need help outside of the game to get but other than that I had no issues.

The replay gallery isnt working it comes up with errors, can someone please make a gallery unlocker mod?

 

[superpuma]

KETZAL would you please take a moment and answer my questions? Thanks.

KETZAL would you please take a moment and answer my questions? Thanks.

About? Lake scene?

 

[superpuma]

Yes, I replayed the game twice, to get the guilt points you don't get to the lake, on the way to the lake you don't get the necessary points. Should I use a specific version?

What scene are you looking to see? The lake scene is in Alice's path. Just answer the BEST CHOICES (WT activated) and choose go to the lake.

If you mean the Clem scene, it's actually here:

THIS SCENE

 

[the_666]

Does anyone know how I do to have the scene of the Surprise of the eldest daughter in the kitchen when she and the aunt are wearing an apron? When I play the blonde sister is going to wake up the MC, when he goes to the kitchen they greet him, but I don't get to see el Delicioso.

Some people want VN not play a game with choice unfortunately. When I started played Porn Games, there wasn't walkthrough mod, just some WKT in pdf made by fan who couldn't get the big picture of the dev for his game.

Thank you for this post. I think it explains a lot about your thinking behind designing this game and would be very useful as an introductory statement at the beginning of the game for new players.

Because there are certain games that are made without the joy of discovery in mind, your game stands out. But some players (ahem) may not realize this immediately, and assume that the Harem/Family path choice is just a way of simply saying "Do you want to see scenes with Cassie in the future? Y/N". Many games have a single, linear plot with Y/N choices for individual scenes, and not much more.

But you actually put in the work and are making these into two separate paths with different scenes and plots. Not everyone puts in the work. People may not realize just how much work you put in.

From this perspective, the gallery is a great idea, because it tells players that, hey, there's this other branch with a lot of content, check it out! Yet it also does not spoil anything. There may be other ways to subtly advertise this in the game too.

Anyway, I am sure that your post will help some players better appreciate your game. Good luck
