Hey, cheers, and glad you're enjoying it.

I've not settled on the exact number of chapters yet, but you can expect season 2 to be more focused than season one, and concentrate mostly on delivering on promises made in season 1. How long it will take to make is hard to say, Season 1 took 5 years and by my reckoning well north of ten thousand hours of work to make, season 2, by its more focused nature, should take less, which isn't saying much I admit. 

Glad you enjoyed it! Join the discord  (link is on the store page), I post weekly progress updates there.

Cheers, glad you're enjoying it!

I don't understand. You can keep your choices, both for PC/Mac/Linux, where the process is transparant, and for Android, where you have to do one manual action (it is explained in game).
Make sure you use the latest versions of both season 1 and season 2, and read the release notes
For the exporting part here: Chapter 1-7 Service release version 1.0.1 - Light of my Life - Season 1 by Naughty Road
For the import here: Light of my Life S2 - Chapter 8 released! - Light of my Life - Season 2 by Naughty Road

Oh, don't worry, they're still in there, and multiplying. There's always more typos...

You mean you were looking for an excuse to run through it again? :D 

No, nothing that serious. 

Cheers, and thank you. I'm just one guy, but really happy you like it! 

LOL. I'm really happy you're enjoying it, and thank you so much for your support!

Thank you for the support! 

No, sorry. :(

I dunno really. They declined, and declined to provide details about why they declined. Just a big corporation being a big corporation. Nothing to do but shrug and move on.

Thank you, so happy you enjoyed it.

Thank you, and happy to hear you're enjoying it!

Hi Thomas,

Thank you very much. I'm sorry, femboys are not in the works for this one as the roster is quite full already.

Thank you for your kind words! 

Cheers, I'm happy to hear you're enjoying it!

Welcome!

Thank you. I'm really happy you're enjoying it!

Depends on how strict you set it up, and also sometimes virus scanners just go wild. Last year it was McAffee deciding every ren'py engine based game was malware. Oh well.

You can try to go into the properties of the zipfile you downloaded, (right click on it and select "properties" from the menu), and on the first page, check the "unblock" checkbox. Then unzip again, and try it. 

Oh, and make sure you're putting it on one of your actual harddrives, and not a network drive or external drive. Sometimes virus scanners will apply stricter policies on programs running from network or external drives.

Are you on a PC that has additional restrictions and policies set up above and beyond normal? Or a device that's been enrolled as a BYOD and might therefore have stricter than normal settings, or is issued by a company or government?

If you are running on an enrolled device, make sure you have permission from the administrator to play games on the device, and to run applications that are self-signed.

So about the message itself, it's not that defender saw a problem with the application, it's just saying the application isn't signed with a fancy, expensive publisher certificate (which it's not). I won't tell you to ignore your virus scanner warnings, all I'm saying is I'm running bitdefender myself and it doesn't have any issue with it. 

Thank you, I'm really glad you're enjoying it! 

Hi, no, sadly not. 

Please go to discord (https://discord.gg/dQtjhWqUNp), go to the "bugs-and-issues" channel, and post the issue there.

Don't forget to mention the platform (pc/linux/mac/android) and what the exact error message is.
There's a copy option on the screen. Please use that to copy the error message.

It's a great system. Too bad it doesn't work for Android and I had to go a different route there.

Nope. It's not in the cards. 

Oh, there actually is one, but I think Itch has trouble with that when you have a sale on.

Cheers. Yeah, I'd preferred to just keep adding content to the original game, but it was getting so bloated all kinds of systems were just starting to fail, from horrendous memory issues on Androids to desktops requiring many GBs of RAM to even run, and all kinds of other weird timing issues inside the renpy engine. Creating the export/import mechanism was a pain, but it just wasn't feasible to keep it in one package anymore.

Thank you!

Oh yeah, that's probably true. There's not a lot to do anymore in many ways, although you can still get with some of the other love interests in the end.

It is an interesting notion.

One of the biggest problems facing me as sole developer is time, and to create some content specifically for that path (other than skipping everything involved with the wards and creating some dialog to glue the ends together) is hard to justify. 

So we will have an ending with the MC ending up with one of the office ladies, but it won't have any special scenes that aren't available too if you're also on the wards path. 

Remaster? What remaster? All that was added to episode 7 was an export function needed in chapter 8, which is why it was released before chapter 8.

Chapter 8 is what took a year to create (2.954 manhours to be exact).

It's a few months maybe.

You are awesome! Happy holidays

Won't be too long now. Glad you're enjoying it so far!

Cheers and enjoy!

Hey Punchdrunk, glad you liked it.

Light of my Life chapters are pretty big, and take a long time to complete. Join the discord (free), patreon, or subscribestar (links in the main menu in the game and the main game here) to see weekly development updates.

Thank you! Really glad you're enjoying it!

In this visual novel, you have the option to stay on a character's romantic path, or get off of it at certain points if you prefer. 

And yes, indicating you don't want to be romantically involved with a character anymore means you don't get to give her very erotic massages anymore either. Note that the game will give you a clear warning when a choice leads to leaving a character's path.

As to characters in this game occasionally kicking you out of the bathroom or otherwise doing things for their own reasons that do not include the MC, that's life. As any guy who's ever shared a household with any number of women can attest, you are not in control here, buddy.

You shouldn't have to. Once you buy the game, you should be able to download any updates that are pushed here.
Note though, that there've not been any updates lately. The current version was released a few months ago, and apart from maybe a small bugfix, I don't expect many new updates to it.

Chapter 8 will be a new, separate download when it comes, because this chapters 1-7 together have grown too big in size, and I can't really add any more to that download. But chapter 8's not ready for release yet, and I'll put up more info about it all when it gets close.

Sadly, I wasn't able to put it up on Steam, so if you're buying, here's as good a place as any, perhaps even better.
In general, while Steam is a much larger platform in terms of users, Itch is way more developer friendly and takes a substantially smaller cut than the big boys like Steam do.

With the complexity at this point in the story (where lewd interactions are unlocked for basically every character), there's about a 3 to 4 thousands hours of production time to a single chapter, which roughly translates to about a year or so of development time.
