Just finished the Game, and You've just gained a new follower Cure. This game has a lot of potential and I am even liking the Story, Unique to any other that I have played so far.

I'll will tell you this however in some of the scene the contortions of the characters are something to be desired, but of course this game is still in it's early stages and can easily be improved later on. That being said it doesn't take anything away from the story, so keep at it and keep the awesome work coming.

I'm looking forward to seeing where this story leads.. 😊👍

I've seen similar to this in my own game, sometimes if another Miner has selected a particular task, be it rubble or picking up ore/crystals, the other miners will leave it alone.

but I haven't had them go back and forth with 1 single item. I do know however that the miners are coded in the way of getting the nearest ore/crystal from a tool store regardless of which direction it is. Think of the area like the Radius when scanning with the Geological Center. they'll work from the Center point outwards in any direction.

This could be the explanation as to why they are running back and forth, but running back to the base before collecting the next resource shouldn't be happening if the Transporter has spaces available, I'll try some experimentation and get back to you.

I hope you do return to this at some point, it's a unique concept to a game, one I have yet seen repeated.

which at this point feels like a rip off .. I'm wondering how many have wasted their money here and yes, unfortunately I am one of those who have paid for nothing it seems ..

The dev is trying to squeeze out more money from people not on Patreon by forcing anyone downloading from itch to buy each version of the game .. sad really

Once again a question about Pregnancy, are so many not reading the story and just going right for the scenes .. ok I digress.

No Pregnancy is not a thing in this world, it's explained at the start of the game where in that since it was discovered that men were not needed for reproduction, women's 'cycles' become obsolete and it is only Nami who still gets normal cycles. The absence of the Y Chromosome is also the reason why Men are such a Rare gift of birth as 99.9% of pregnancies in this world are girls.

As for your Avoidable Kinks question, just scroll up, there is a list of what's in the game to avoid some scenes you just don't interact with that area however you do lose parts of the story.

Hope this helps.

First Rule of Gary;

We do not discuss Gary, he is everything and he is nothing, we acknowledge his presence, he just is.

End of transmission ..

I'm hoping for more than just 5 minutes of useless progression and new character teases...

The ManicMiners folder is there, but no Levels folder, I'll create one then save a test board, update with an edit.

Update, has the Levels folder, but still doesn't save the level, only thing in there is an Text Document labeled 'Empty!

Small thing, I'm trying to create my own Level, it saves ok, but when I try to reload the level to continue to edit it, the File folder is empty. Am I looking in the wrong place? or is the editor not 100% yet?

Dude, This is Fantastic! Not only have you kept it's original form and gameplay, but you've massively improved it with the hot keys, the camera zoom where you can go as far out as seeing the whole map, then the level creator, customising your miners DUDE, above and beyond. Can not wait until you get this fully complete, it's brilliant, awesome job.

Ok, just finished Episode 4 and I must say the Story is intriguing, setting aside the sexuality of it, it's still a good read whichever path you take. I really look forward to seeing how the story plays out. Excellent work so far Jestur.

I've given up waiting for a MNF update and moved on to other games, still get the progress reports but honestly, I'm already calling it dead

My thoughts are thus, usually at a Beach Scene, applying lotion in very lewdly suggestive areas or the shower scenes to wash off the sand are givens in most VN's featuring beaches; however we don't see other issues that could  arise when exposed to the searing heat for long periods of time, things that would effect the characters negatively yet ultimate being character closer together. for example;

1. Heat Exhaustion or Heat Stroke, causing dizziness, nausea/vomiting (granted this doesn't have to be seen obviously) high body temperature, this could be brought on by excess consumption of alcohol, see where I'm heading with this one? (more on this later)

2. Sun Burns, the mild one being home treated with cool baths/showers or more serious cases leading to flaky and dry skin, therefore needing moisturiser to be applied.

3. Dehydration, this one should be self explanatory, when being dehydrated you need 'fluids'; Water, Milk, 'Juice', you get the picture.

In just these three alone, many scene and scenarios could present itself; 2 and 3 being the more obvious scenes playable, however 1 could have an entire Chapter to the story if needs be here's a brief;

Chapter starts, everyone preparing for the trip to the beach, local or distant, could also play a factor here, being local character could walk to it, enjoy pleasant conversation, while also still being exposed to the sun and thus begins our 'problem'. If set for a distant beach, this could draw out more time as MC perhaps wants to help others pack if there were to stay in a hotel for a day or so (already this opens up more expansion to the chapter so as to be able to spread this over several days).

In both branches at this point you could perhaps throw in a blown tyre forcing the MC to help change it being the 'man of the house' and all (again this could play to the more hostile character to either tease or taunt the MC). During this pause while the MC is working up a sweat, becoming dehydrated, a lack of provisions for the trip could play a factor here too.

(Distant Beach Route) perhaps a Mix up in the hotel booking forces them all to share a room seeing as so many wish to take full advantage of the heat (this could also be a reason why Catherine turns up later than the others to the beach)

Finally at the Beach, maybe they are in luck  and there's a beach bar or even a party and Alcohol is flowing-a-plenty.

Now here is where we get to the Meat and Potatoes, consumption of Excess Alcohol can cause many of the same conditions are heat exhaustion, Dizziness, Nausea/Vomiting. (hopefully you see my vision here)

Showing clear signs of being intoxicated, 'victim' (be it MC or another Character) is teased and made fun of, they go to bed out of 'exhaustion' only to be unable to wake the following morning with fever and high temperature, thus the reality of the situation hits home and commence 'treatment' and recovery where those feeling guilty for not recognising the true symptoms of Heat Exhaustion or Heat Stroke, dependant on how far you wished to take the situation, and therefore bond over jokes or teasing of the situation.

Well this of course is just a scenario I had in my head and the more I thought about it and how it'd play out the more I've typed, only realising just now how much I've actually written -_- Anyway, I do hope this gives you some Ideas on what scenes you could use. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with though.

Ok. So just got finished with the demo and I am very much liking the game and the story so far, though a little crazy, it's fun just to see how it would all turn out. I would very much like to buy the full (current) game and am curious as to know if buying the game now, would force me to buy it again at a later date once it is updated. The only games I have purchased so far are completed games. I have not experienced purchasing game during it's production and would really like to know the answer to this.

Thank you in advance

So Far it is looking great, I can see the Potential in ZR2, you see the different plots of land waiting to be built on, so you know there is a lot to come, it'll be refined, defined and perfected, smoothing out the creases whacking those bugs until they're gone. You've done fantastic work with all 4 of the current available games, and I also know they'll only get better from here. I'll be watching ZR2 grow from day one.

the other Gemstone haven't been implemented yet so it's only the Topaz to find i believe

The Topaz is here, you need to head to Valencia Coast to the Temple where you took Evelynn at the beginning of the game. In the lower section you need to head south and find this platform, jump down to it and it'll take you to the Topaz
