Hi! I'm in the process of making major changes to the game to add a customization mode that lets you personalize Gwendolyn (that's why I haven't published in a while, changing and redoing all the animations takes a while), for the moment only patrons have access to the prototypes. If you want more info, don't hesitate to visit my discord

Hi! As the game is still in development, certain actions, no matter how much Gwendolyn loves you, will always result in a Gwendolyn reset (like the fact that you got her pregnant). I'll be adding new consequences in future updates (i.e. they won't necessarily lead to a gameover), but for the moment I'm changing the animations.

Edit: it's settled

What exactly do you mean when you say the game money is gone? (If you're talking about the money-earning mini-games, they're in maintenance, so I'm going to rework them).

Hi! I'm glad you like my game, otherwise, as far as adding girls and customization, I might do that, but it's not for now

Is it normal that the support does not respond to my emails and does not inform me of the reason why I have been de-indexed? The administrator’s response is not precise enough, and if I want to publish a new game, I would like to be informed of the exact reasons for the de-indexing so as not to repeat the mistake that is being blamed on me.

Ah ok, sorry for this misunderstanding (I am French), 

I don't know, I noticed however that I was labeled as NSFW because I was making adult games

I just realized this, so it must be something that is automatically attributed when you signal that you produce adult content

You can write the "nsfw" tag manually and it will be recognized, it's just that it doesn't suggest it when you start writing it

As far as publications are concerned, I'm the one who publishes less on Itch io, I try to favor my other networks because in my situation, itch io no longer gives me any visibility, so I try to encourage people to go and support my game where it has visibility

Hi! Unfortunately, it is not possible to continue from where you left off on the 1.0 download in the 1.3 download. This is not a patch, so you cannot transfer your data over

I got a message yesterday from the moderator https://itch.io/t/3068503/my-games-are-deindexed#post-8550236, if I understood correctly, the support team can decide not to answer if they don't want to reindex my game, you may be in this situation. However, IMO, I think it is still necessary to continue to follow up with them by email (in my case, I have unanswered questions, I particularly want to know the exact cause of my first de-indexing, if only to to prevent this from happening again if I publish a new game).

Ok

Ok, thank you for your answer. Just to be sure I understood everything, can the support staff answer me or does the fact that my games have been deindexed for this reason mean that the support staff can’t respond to my request for reindexation?

I still have not received any responses from the support by email despite my reminders, is there nothing else you can do to help me?

Hi! I have the same problem as you, my games have been deindexed for about a month, I think it might be a good idea to team up so that if the support team responds to one of us, we can then talk to them about the other developer and have them fix their problem too (I don’t know if they will do it, but it’s worth a try).

    I have another question in relation to this, since I make regular updates, but my emails have still not been answered, does this pose a problem for the support team who might check my itch.io page following my emails if I update my game? Should I wait for them to reply before updating my game?

    Edit: I just updated it because I can’t keep people waiting too long. However, should I update it every week or every two weeks? I wonder if the verification takes longer if there have been multiple updates.”

    Ok! I was waiting for the reply by e-mail, I went to the discussion board to make sure there were no other problems

    Is there any way to confirm that they received my e-mail? I know it may take a while but I still haven't heard back and it's urgent.

    Ok! Thanks

    That's what I did : 

    I had sent a message last week (the request number is 164643) I waited several days and got no answer (still not today)

    I also sent e-mails yesterday (two precisely, I sent one too many by mistake, their numbers are 165388 and 165389)

    Hi! 

    I’m not sure if I’m deindexed, banned, or restricted. I read the docs to better understand what’s going on, but it doesn’t really help. Let me explain my situation:

    Last week, one of my games was deindexed. I had sent an email that went unanswered. Since my games are NSFW, I thought I might have forgotten to include a warning. So, I created a new page for the game and made sure everything was in order. However, I just noticed that both of my games have been desindexed this time. Today, I received a message from itch.io asking me to switch from the “Collected by itch.io & paid later (aka itch.io Payouts)” system to the “Direct to you” mode, which I did. Is this related to the delisting of my games? I don’t understand what’s going on and I can’t get a response. Therefore, I would like you to help me figure out what’s wrong and find a solution to this problem.

    RELEASE [PATREON] ver. 0.1.2 

    All patrons (regardless of tier) have access to this version

    The new content focuses on stores.

    Changelog:

    1.  New power "NEGOTIATE"
    2.  The "CHANGE" power has been improved: a new "personality" is available (allowing access to a new H-scene)
    3.  The item menus have been slighty modified

    I've also put out a poll on patreon to find out whether I should implement a fighting mode (a bit like Brave New Isekai), so don't hesitate to come and support me if you'd like to take part (you've got until version 0.2 to take the poll).

    RELEASE [PUBLIC] ver. 0.1.1

    Due to some problems, I had to modify my itch.io page, I hope you like the design!

    Changelog:

    1.  Cheat mode (When you get into bed)
    2.  French translation
    3.  Bug fixes (Translating the whole game helped me spot a few problems)
    4.  The ripple effect can be removed from the options menu

    Could you tell me more precisely which scenes you're talking about?

    What OS do you play on (Windows, Mac, Android)?

    (1 edit)

    I fixed these bugs, I will publish the bugfix, do not hesitate to tell me again if there are other bugs

    Thanks for pointing this out, it's because I changed the image format (png to webp) on the thousand images I have, I must have forgotten to indicate this change on some.

    Cool!

    After the bugfixer disappeared, it is possible to see this scene by going to one of the teleporters, after having activated it. 

    By the way, it isn't possible to know that you have to delete the persistent file before seeing this scene (unless you saw it on the internet).

    I can understand that it is difficult, I am currently working on a guide.

    Did you save after seeing Mary's ghost?

    No problem! I think it's really cool that people are interested in my mini-game, I'm planning to add a mine sweeper in the next update (Brave New Isekai is my first project, so I'm trying to improve my skills by doing this kind of thing)

    Hi! 

    I'm not only saying this for you, but for all those who would have difficulties: I tested the 54 different possibilities that my mini-game proposes, and they were all possible, I can prove it to you by showing you the boxes that you have to touch if you send me the screenshot of what you find impossible, I know that the ones with 3 turns can be complicated but I tested each one of them to be sure that there is no problem (there are 18 different ones, so 1/3 of the 54 prompts).

    SPOIL (how to do this mini-game VERY easily):





















    There is also a little trick to becoming the world champion at this mini-game (Score : +9 000 000 000), you just have to touch the model.

    SPOILER:








    After the bugfixer erased her, you have to continue your game and go to one of the teleporters, activate it if it's not done, then use it, you'll then see the scene with Mary's spirit.

    I just made a new version where it is possible to reset persistent data from the main menu, maybe this will solve the problem.
