Hi

Firstly.. thanks for this awesome Eyes Wide Shut of a AVN.

Secondly.. I wish to draw your attention to the underuse of all perks and overuse of [Social Chameleon]. I got locked out of consoling Veronica, even though I had 18 affection points and 19 libido points and my perk was [Social Butterfly] meaning I was meant to be 'budding with social grace and charm'.. (I'm currently on the Hana date)  .. none of the other perks or points were worth what the SC perk is:

SC=10

SB = 3

SMan = 7

It would be good if this [Social Butterfly] perk meant whenever this perk check comes up, I can can change 5 points from one column to the to the other of my choosing, but that also means I am stuck lacking points in the column I switched them from until the next SB check. OR.. just increase the amount of times SB comes up.. like Veronica's affection check.. SB would get a freepass too.

Thirdly.. I would like to buy the game on itch.. I would also like to buy the soundtrack as an Album/DLC. Customary prices start at $5 and go up to a reasonable $12*. Probably not what you're used to on patreon.. around here we buy once and wait for the updates.. idea being; we're taking the chance you'll never come back, in exchange we get the game and any updates for the price you determine.

I'd definitely give yous $10 for the game and another $7 for the album.

FYI.. from reading fellow itch members comments, we're not big on subscribing.

Lastly.. and not just directed at you.. I wish Devs would take the time to upload on Itch servers so I can keep track of all my AVNs in one place.

As I said I'm on the Hana date.. but I was good to 'Ronni' (Veronica) every chance I got, except the first meeting when I chose her for the load and when it didn't upset Hana. (my perks.. Tireless; Voyeur;SB)

I also didn't take the deal with Rosalind.. because I find it a big turn off when a woman isn't into me, but at one point Rosalind mentioned her daughter not being there and it was good her daughter wouldn't see 'my coming and going' even though I wasn't. 

I hope this feedback is helpful and thanks again for this great game!

-------------------------

*of course you can pay more.. how much does a piece of rope cost and what is its length?

Two things I kept thinking.. Why doesn't Felicia just buy shares in Veronica's business and let Rosalind have a share for letting Fel win? And.. the three junior management.. K focuses on Male pleasure MC BDSM specialist focusing on Female pleasure, and H focusing on money BT and security.. then for the hierarchy, lowerhouse assistants.. Dalia assists K, Harp assists MC, Yoo-ri (or Mercedes) assists H.

Suggested band name: 'MoreHead Hills Physics Club'

Sorry for going on a bit.. TLDR.. but it's testament to how much I've enjoyed this game so far!! .. I have even more to say but it's already too long.

Hey, thanks for using your time to share your (lengthy) feedback.

Starting with the comments related to itch: We will (likely) turn on the ability to purchase the game at some point.  I've neglected to do so because Pale Carnations is ultimately a free game and we plan on using itch as a platform for the public release. However, I recognize that some devs treat it like a tip jar of sorts.

As for the music, it's all under the creative common license, so I don't believe we can sell it, but I'll look into the itch server thing. I think I didn't bother last time since I had to manually contact itch to host a file larger than 1GB.

Moving onto the direct feedback:

Yep! My biggest weakness when it comes to the project has been game design, especially working in ways to evenly apply the different perks. Your suggestion is both thematic and interesting, and while not exactly what you suggested, it's got me thinking of maybe an alternative implementation of just using it to lower the difficulty of certain social checks.

Thanks again for the feedback; I've filed away that continuity error you pointed out.

One last quick thing..

Just so I can make a playlist/album on YT (or buy the songs myself).

A few of the songs are regular Renpy stanzas, but many were not, if you could share the list, that'd be great. If not..(I realize it might be time consuming if you don't have it handy in the code) the song when (Mina finds the video) and Hana offers MC a lift.. never heard that before. That was my favorite and I'd like to buy it from the artist to listen to. I just don't know the artist and song name. I'd love to reward them for their work.. that song blew my mind!

About the possibility to donate to download the game: please do implement it! I'm averse to recurring payment systems, and I'll be more than happy to contribute with a sizeable one-off donation. You deserve it!
