haven't been playing for long, but the game is very cute! I like the character behind the employees. the game does happen to be a bit bare in furniture but that's totally okay considering the timeframe.

1. more furniture would always be great, like maybe couches for relaxation or voyeurism-- maybe even st. andrews' cross, bondage platforms, drink bars, and swings. more options for already existing furniture would be good, too.

2. decor would be wonderful if you had the time, such as potted plants, toy stands, neon lights, erotic statues, and water coolers for well-needed hydration.

3. the sudden influx of customers in the beginning is intimidating to new players. i think it would make much more sense for your reputation to control how many customers are interested in the place. it adds incentive to keep reputation up.

4. for people like me who stress over my furniture being symmetrical. . . the free-rotate has me sweating! especially since you can't move objects once they've been placed. i think having a toggle button to snap objects in a grid system and/or the typical 8 directions would be great!

5. also, i would request a door. i don't need doors for every room, but instead this door would be like. . . the "set" entrace, y'know? like if i put that door and a bench in an empty lot, people would walk through the door before they would make their way to the entertainment. the door of course would have to be two squares wide to prevent blockage.


off the top of my head, this is all i'd like to see put into the game! even so, i'm excited to see what YOU have in mind.

I am not forcing myself to play out of misguided spite. I play this game (and others with solely female MCs) because I want to. I love the Regency Era, I love romance, and I love the pining that comes with being a lesbian in a period story. There's not many games with all three that I can live through vicariously, so some sacrifices must be made.


Not to say that it is a sacrifice to pretend to be a woman. You do not know my gender identity, therefore you do not know my limits, but it isn't as cut and dry as "being referred to as a woman is bad for me". I still identify with womanhood and its societal expectations. I still identify with sapphic relationships. I much prefer pretending to be a cis woman to be lesbian in a game because the feeling in the relationship is entirely different to me. Being a cis woman in a game whose only romance options are men doesn't feel... as fulfilling. And it's amazing that there's a Regency Era game where those lesbian relationships are at the head of the game (with a 2:1 ratio!!) and it's unapologetically lesbian. Not a half-hearted participatory award in representation.


TL;DR... I would pick a nonbinary option if I could, but I'm completely fine with being cis as long as I still get to romance ladies because the dynamics feel fuller than a hetero relationship. And please consider how already niche genres are even more limited for people who aren't cishet, so we usually have to make do with what's available.

I totally agree! I do not use she/her so it's uncomfortable to be referred to as a lady and a woman and a her. I can mostly push the feeling aside because of my love for the Regency Era and the understanding that being a "woman" is necessary for this particular story... but it still makes me go :/
