Written guide is here.

This needs to be updated right? Especially with the slut mode ending.

(+1)

Yes, not patched for 0.6 yet- it will be done! Probably after It's release on Itch.io because it might spoil and confuse users that still have the old version.

On the devlog there's enough information for you to try and figure out if you've got everything. It lists the ammount of unique CG's and added content - It just doesn't guide you. Hopefully this helps you! Here it is:

What Open said. This will (probably) be updated a few days after the game releases here on Itch; I don't want to spoil anyone before-hand. Meanwhile, feel free to ask on SubStar if you can't find a scene (you know how many there are, so just compare that to what you've seen). On that note, I should clarify that "scene" can be confusing here. I use it to mean "a set of CG that all have the same base, with minor variations," rather than the movie definition of "a chunk of action that happens." So for example the stuff that happens in the host club is one "scene" by my terms, even though in movie terms it's three.

cant wait for the 0.6 update for some of the scenes, i have no idea where/how to find the host club ones

You need to have lost at least once for Mezz to agree to enter the Host Club - maybe that's what you're missing? Take a look at what Mezz says when you try to enter Host Club.

That "side alley" message is in the new version as well - It probably refers to the fact that the two available paths right now are in "side alleys" - since there will be another expansion adding a center path later on.

The host club comes later. After you do the side ally on the left of the gate with people telling you to get lost, you get through that whole part and then the next area afterwards. Then youll be at the part with the host club.

waiiiiit what is the lucky charm. I dunno where or what that even is. Is it the thing u get from Mahir, I forgor.

(+1)

When you wake up in Mahir's office and he tells you he needs you to deal with Khazeem for him, he tells you that you either have to do "work" for him by going to the porn shop or you can fight him instead. If you fight him and win, he'll give you the lucky charm. If you equip it, you can't get hypno'd by the hyena mobs and it makes the fights easier.

whats that 4 way cross neat the end? is it for not just the club but also for the charm too?

where is host club and where do i get lucky charm?

you get it by beating mahir. The host club is at the fork when mahir comments on your progress 

I’m curious when this will be updated 

(+1)

thanks for this, i managed to do it in one sitting and im happy to note everything still is the same

greatful for the flowchart

are we gonna get an updated version of this or the written guide??
or does this flow chart still work??

It's updated! The latest content pack scenes are in the "Jobs" section. So they don't pop out that much and the guide seems unchanged.

Here, the exert where It's mentioned: "Every full defeat to a group of hyenas in the Entertainment District I will bring you back to the plaza, and a scene in front of the strip club. Afterwards, you'll chat with Mahir and be sent to work before you're allowed to leave the plaza again. Both the porn shop and strip club are available, but you can only do one job per playthrough. There are three “frozen” defeat scenes, and three “work” scenes at the “job” of your choice. The timing of the first work scene may vary depending on whether you fight Mahir on first meeting him, but dialog will indicate this and steer you in the right direction."

The new content's at the strip club job "route". Hope this helps!

how does slut mode work no matter what i do i cant get it to work

"Losing four fights to the mobs will put Mezz in "Slut mode." Among other things, this will change the gameplay of Entertainment District I to stealth. If caught three times, there will be a small, non-full-cg scene. If THIS happens four times, there will be a final small, non-full-cg scene and a game over."

Mobs in this case is just the hyena enemies, lose to them 4 times and you'll be in slut mode.

Slut mode works by changing gameplay, and enabling and disabling the availability of some scenes. That's all.

I'm assuming this game is more for sub people than for dom people right? Or, as a dom, is there any scene that I can dom the other?

(+1)

Yeah, safe to say this game was not made with the intention of making the player feel like a dom.

This post is now ancient, but just necroing as I'm in the thread to say sorry I wasn't responding here, didn't occur to me that I wouldn't be notified of posts as I'm not OP. I'm "subscribed" to it now, so I should be in future.

But yes, to answer your question, this is definitely a game for subs.

how are you supposed to beat mahir????  that fight seems damn near impossible with his hypno move

Developer

There's a gimmick to it. Pay attention to his move icons (and mouse over them). They're different, and have different counters.

hey so im missing 2 images in my gallery (the 9th and 12th) what are those scenes and how do i get them?

(6 edits) (+1)

For the 9th you must lose the bossfight with Khazeem(the final boss) whilst not in slut mode, which means not having lost to the hyenas more than 3 times, you'll know you're in slut mode because the Ent. Dist will be in "stealth" mode, if that's so get a save before that happens.  For the 12th take a save right before meeting Mahir for the first time, then head over to the strip club and talk to the bartender. Then take the job...  And enjoy!

There's a starter save you can use that's before meeting Mahir, and a thing to unlock the full gallery inside the game files. Tell me if you need any help using them if you need to!

Thanks for taking the time to answer this one, would have taken me a while to look all this up/refresh my brain on all this again.
