My guess ... Itch is dead ... heavily infested with bots and scammers ...
Maybe the dev retreated to his Discord ... you can find the link, if you start the game in your browser (top of this page) ...
Your first objective is, to find and beat the NitenDolls ... they used to be somewhere at the hotel, but I haven´t seen them for a while ...
Your second objective is, to gather as much wealth (jewelry) as possible ... you need cash to pay the game fee ... and to reverse all (unwanted) modifications the game forced on your MC ...
In any case ... you don´t "win" the game ... you just "beat" it one way or the other ...
If the Minotaur took you from behind, you have to wait for him to recover and his dick to deflate ... it´s meant to be that way for increased humiliation ...
"Wait" when he´s done and a "clock" should appear on the image ... click the "clock" for "Long Wait" ... or keep waiting manually ... resisting just affects the increase of damage/soreness during sex ...
If the Minotaur took your snatch, you should be free after he blew his load ...
There is an option to customize your MC within the Cheat Menu ...
If you make the right choices during the intro, your MC will get a nice thong and a sundress from the market ... and on day 2 at the lakeside Sammy might get the Exhibitionist perk and loose her virginity ...
My guess is ... The Fixer is made with an older version of Renpy ... and Win11 is often incompatible with older software ...
I don´t think, Renpy is the right engine for idle animations ... I don´t know how Renpy operates, but it feels like every click/action generates a new frame/image ...
I am in for some more audio ... asside from the moody BGM I´d like some ambient sound ... maybe birds and bees for the park, a busy croud for the market, waves and seagulls for the lake side, music and mumbling voices for the bar, etc...
Dripping sounds for an overflowing pussy are mere fantasy ... but Sammy might have thoughts about it ... "I like going commando, but I do not like it running down my thighs" when overflowing or on her period ... "Leaving wet spots where ever I´ve been sitting is kind of embarassing"
Did you re-download the game ? - Just to make sure, you are not trying to run faulty/corrupted files ...
Did you try the quick-start ... skipping the intro ?
Then there is to look into your hardware and OS ... if your rig can barely handle the OS (forced upgrade Win7 ==> Win10/Win11) ... you will get into trouble with running any demanding software ...
There is a reason, I did not switch to Win10/11 ... my old lady doesn´t like them ...
The color settings are slot based ... like Schoolwear_OuterTop_Set1, Swimwear_BikiniBottom_Set2, Evening_Dress_Set2, Nighttime_UnderwearTop_Set1, etc...
The color palette is global for all outfit slots ...
Once I realized that ... I gave up on customizing the colors ... before it gets messy again, I rather stick with the given color selection/palette ...
What is our Novice supposed to do ?
How do I control her ... or pan the view ?
There is no tutorial or explanation about the controls or the objectives for our Novice ... if you run out of energy during seducing/interaction you are kind of softlocked ... the seduction-menu blocks any further interaction even after resting ...
I do not think it is worth wasting your time with this game ... for me it is unplayable at this point ...
The overlay is not directly related to drunk or horny ... it indicates, that Sammy is in a very good mood ... be it from drugs, booze or steamy quality-time ...
It starts with mood 80 ... and gets more opaque the higher the value ...
If Sammy is in a very bad mood, the flowers change to a dark pattern ...
Measured by the time I spend with ... definitely Fallout 4 (until Bethesda broke it) and Skyrim LE ... and there is Trap Quest ... I stick to this game since 2016/2017 ...
Sometimes I miss the porn version ... though some pictures were disturbing/disgusting (it´s one thing, to read about extreme body proportions or gaping holes ... seeing pictures of that is a hole different thing) ... it had to be stopped because of (possible) issues with legal rights of depicted persons and their bodyparts ...
The table behind your link shows just one alert ... all other scanners did not find any malware ... I am 99 % sure ... it is a false positive ...
I googled Jiangmin ... seems the scanner is overly sensitive every now and then ...
If you are still unsure ... redownload the file from here, their discord or F95zone ... and scan again ...
So HMA is basically on hold whilst you learn and experiment with new mechanics/codes ... you test them with LEPD to not break what you already achieved with HMA ...
If any edit on a gamepage counts as an (game)update ... it´s probably the tags ... I don´t remember that No AI was a thing in 2024 ...
You might want to update the Average Session too ... it´s no longer just a few minutes, more like a couple of hours by now ... and maybe add a version number or release date to the DL-Links ... that would make obvious, when the files were updated ...
hgameartman can anybody explain please ?
The DL-Links are from 09/2024 ... More Information states the last update was one month ago ...
What was the content of that last update and where can we get it ?
Oh, I remember ... back in the early 2000s ... when file-sharing was popular ... I set up a Linux system ... after some unpleasant incidents ...
"FEHLER: Programm kann nicht ausgeführt werden. Falsches Betriebssystem."
Those times are gone ... Linux and MacOS/iOs are widespread today ... malware will run on that systems too ...
"Steam does this in some way. It is very big news, if there is malware on Steam. On Itch this happens probably about 10 times a day. Speaking about indexed projects. Maybe the scammers upload 100 a day and Itch catches 90. Those criminals do that fulltime. And even without bots, someone can easily upload several fakes an hour.
On several weekends last year I easily saw 20+ malware uploads. That 10 per day is a convervative estimate based on experience, not an exaggeration."
I wonder ... where do you get this information ...
I can´t imagine you - or anyone - randomly downloading dozens or hundreds of games daily for fun ... just to check if they´re save to use ...
Are you part of the staff or an IT expert ? - Like a hired hand to test a provider´s measurements on safety and integrety ?
I´d say ... it depends on your skills, goals and ambition ...
As a beginner it would be better to roll out a bunch of smaller projects ... to hone your skills ... to try out different genres and platforms/engines ... and to boost popularity ...
Once you have the experience and found your way ... you can start a more complex/bigger project and focus on the genre/engine that suits you best ...
Well ... somehow all those malicious games had comments disabled ... I am no creator nor did I ever published for one ... I do not know if comments can be disabled ...
As I said before ... the suspicious part is the lack of an opportunity to leave comments ... not that there not yet comments on a project ...
I just mentioned, what the corrupted games/pages had in common ... missing comments or empty profiles are no (un)safe indicators ... but they will make me extra cautious ...
I stumbled upon the games through my search filter ... they were new and I got intrigued ... I am not actively hunting scammers ...
I´ll keep in mind to copy-paste the username if necessary ... but I don´t understand much about scripting ... so the java thingy is more like "nah, better not touch" ...
Now that I think about it ... all other games I got from here could be played in browser and/or have an active communication via DM or comments ... some provide their projects on other websites too ...
Guess we have to stay alert and better avoid shiny new offers ... especially when there are no comments or an empty profile ...
And with such a flood of scams ... problably thanks to AI ... I don´t wonder anymore, why there is no answer to my reports ...
The last games I downloaded here, were all corrupted ... they contained an archive inside an archive ... the second archive - which is not scanned by default by most AV software - had a trojan inside ...
The first time I didn´t think much about it ... I had archives inside archives before ... but when the game.exe (RPGM) started a setup-routine, I was on high alert and stopped the process ... Avira approved my suspicion ... it was a trojan/malware ...
The game pages have no comment section and the provider´s profiles are hidden/private ... so there are no means of quick/direct communication ...
Is this some kind of trend or am I just unlucky here ?
I took the opportunity to skip the cave ... and went through the Alchemist´s trading menu to Morya ...
At the Guild I´m told "You don´t belong here. Go back where you came from" ... but if I "Sell All" at Morya Shop ... I´m at the Alchemist again ...
"Sell All" is broken ?!?
I´m playing the Online Version ... Firefox v115.26.0 ... Win7 64bit ...
Most games I played offer a way to reduce corruption ... be it a potion, prayers or service at a temple/church ...
How about reducing corruption by voluntary service time at the orphanage ? - That would be my idea for Beast Companions ...
I´ll try some more ... and if it doesn´t work/takes too long ... I´ll start a new and "less wild" game on the next release ...
