i just realized that itch has a filter that marked a few comments as potential spam, so i'm sorry that i didn't see some of your questions and that some of the recent comments are posted out of order. i've gone through it and approved the non-spam ones and i'll make sure to monitor that system going forward

tanku for the kind words!! means a lot :)

i'm sorry i'm seeing this so late, thank you so much for the kind words!! wake is especially influenced by novels that explore the concept of the sublime, dark romanticist stories that overwhelm ordinary human scale: mountains, storms, enormous architecture, terror, infinity, death. as an agoraphobe, he's especially receptive to literature whose entire aesthetic is awe. not only does it let him encounter enormity without being physically exposed to it—he can stand on the cliff without standing on the cliff, you know?—but he's just particularly receptive to understanding the power of that type of image, to seeing both the beauty and terror in something that makes him feel small. i'm not sure if that makes sense lol he loves all kinds of genres and writers, but these are probably his top favorites:

the count of monte cristo

the hunchback of notre drame

frankenstein

it does not ask for "full control" of your phone LMAO large games can't always be packed into a single apk, so android ports of larger renpy games often distribute the apk and the game's files separately. the phone is asking for access to the location where the game's data is stored in order to load the images, audio, video, etc. it's not easy to get games designed for pc with thousands and thousands of images to work on a very broad range of mobile devices, and this is a pretty normal and efficient way to accomplish it, but i understand if it makes you uncomfortable :]

LOL I take that as a huge compliment

all romance in the game is optional

im just messing with you lol but yeah, there are nearly 400 animations in the game. i mention it in the infographics above

stop motion?

that's up to you! i will say, though, that i'll be releasing a QoL update in the coming weeks that replaces the current UI/UX and adds a lot of photos and things to unlock so if you do want to restart, you might want to hold off a little longer 🤞

im sorry i only saw this now!! i believe when i first released my game's initial demo, it was accidentally titled love on the water, but that was years ago and was a fundamentally different game (most of that content has been replaced)

i'm not the dev, but t's absolutely normal, especially for big games. big games can't store the entire game in just the APK, so you're pretty much downloading the APK and the game files (including its audio, photos, videos, etc.) separately and then it has to ask for permission to access those files to run it

welp it gets faster 

NO LMAOOOOOO im sorry ill let the MC set a nickname for her next update just for you 🫡

"i've answered this a few times below, but there is lots of breeding talk in the game and optional impregnation content planned, but full-on pregnancy remains to be seen as i don't plan on doing any big timeskips"

currently only a minor character/not yet romanceable, but she's had a few scenes in the game. check out the 11th image in the side gallery here on itch 🫡

that is not a feature i currently provide and im sorry but this is the funniest comment i've gotten in a while 😭 im dying to know which character it is

"Rosen" and the general plot synopsis are totally made up, but "Silver Moon" is just a silly flip of "Golden Sun," and its subtitle "Nightmare Carry Close" is a flip of Kingdom Hearts' "Dream Drop Distance" haha

thank you so, so much for playing!

BANGER INCOMING

yeah, that's definitely something to keep in mind! on the other hand, though, i'm not so sure abby would be as impressed with your memory if she reminded you immediately before 🤣 in the next update, the updated gallery will be easily accessible directly from the pause menu and hopefully that'll help. i'll keep this in mind though

and if you missed frankie's lewd scenes, it means you're not on her romance path (this choice is made at the end of chapter 2 outside of the sauna). and the extra sam scene is a bug (it's a duplicate). sorry about that apis 😵‍💫

thank you for the kind words :) i think it's a good thing you found the game now as it's only gotten better over time :D

and those scenes are fully noncanon. they don't make sense at all in in relationship to her personality and the larger story, etc. She will, of course, be romanceable and have h-scenes, but they'll be earned and a lot better 

you can change his first name

yes, those two scenes with nora were removed when the first chapter of the game underwent a rewrite and visual upgrade, but i left them in the gallery so i wasn't taking content away from people. when i started the game, i felt obligated to have lewd scenes and as i grew as a developer i realized i was uncomfortable with how rushed and exceedingly unromantic those scenes felt (not to mention, the first one isn't even animated!). nora (and mrs. landa!!!) are deserving of a more romantic and emotional relationship arc

thank you so much!

thanks for the feedback apis!

for reference, every character's favorite movie (as well as their favorite food, music, etc.) is in their gallery page, which is easily accessible from the main menu! i initially tested putting a "check the gallery" popup during that scene, but in testing we thought it felt too obvious LMAO. i guess not 😭

thanks so much for playing and for always being so supportive!

the only drugs consumed during the making of this game were caffeine and boba🫡

thank you for playing!

i'm currently in the process of a major overhaul of my game's ui/ux and replay gallery, and locked scenes will come with a hint on how to unlock them, but for the most part it's super easy to see everything you want. the game is linear and pretty telegraphed. that other comment, for example: he missed a sasha scene because he rejected a prompt from another character while sasha is directly next to you in the same room :)

thank you so much for the kind words :) they mean the world to me

this won't ever be a sandbox game as i don't really enjoy sandboxes myself, but i do plan on implementing more minor, explatory point-and-click segments in the future

as far as pregnancy, i've answered this a few times below, but there is optional impregnation content planned, but full-on pregnancy remains to be seen as i don't plan on doing any big timeskips

I made the post public for you. I hope that is okay :) I'll try to be more wary of this in the future.

impregnation, yes, but full pregnancy content remains to be seen as i don't plan on doing a timeskip for, at least, a long time, and i won't be implementing any kind of super-speed pregnancy magic haha

there will be more content with liam, but there won't be any additional love interests :]

wow that's such a sweet comment >.< to think someone would try that hard to find my game, even in its early stages, means a lot!! if you're serious about starting your own game, we'd love to have you over in the discord server if you need any help! though already having a year of hs2 experience already puts you about... a year ahead of me when i started my game LMAO thank you for the comment!

my man 🤝

me too :( i hope to find a translator soon

the game is primarily written and designed with harem as the canon route, but like it says in the game's description, "there is no forced romance." you can reject anyone/everyone

thank you for checking it out anyway! there are lots of amazing games on this website, and i hope you'll find more that you like!

hello! if you are avoiding h-content with kristina (ms. behr) you won't see the two scenes with sasha in chapter 4  (the two scenes are connected)🫰

i'm sorry, but i do not use AI in any facet of my work. i don't believe it can create a truly nuanced translation of my story and characters, and i do not want to do my game or the many translators who do truly amazing work a disservice.  i'm very sorry about this, but i still hope i can provide a true, high-quality translation in the future

很抱歉，我工作的任何环节都不会使用人工智能。我不认为它能真正精准地翻译我的故事和人物，我也不想辜负我的游戏，也不想辜负那些才华横溢的译者们。对此我深感抱歉，但我仍然希望将来能够提供真正高质量的翻译。

if someone offers to translate the game for me, i would love to! but i haven't found anyone yet :((

如果有人愿意帮我翻译这款游戏，我会非常感激！但我还没找到合适的人选 :(
