Makes the best stew, for sure. It'll be worth the wait.

Not obsessed-- I dislike it when people normalize bullying someone for not being faster about giving them the sweat of their brow while bitching about how long it's taking. Picking on someone for not giving you your freebie fast enough is not kind, compassionate, or empathetic... it's just mean--- and so is normalizing it, or understating it. It's like beating up on someone for not handing you something they made fast enough.

If you are not paying, it is free... no amount of "sophistry" changes that. If you're donating, you can stop-- because it is voluntary, as explained above--- and you'll STILL be able to get it, because *DINGDINGDING* it's free. Cease YOUR crybullying; I wouldn't have to say a thing if you'd move on from something that obviously bothers you... you know... being an adult and walking away instead of being a vindictive little whiner because you don't have your free stuff when you want it. Also: you aren't "renting" the game, you knob... this ain't Blockbuster Video. Completely irrelevant comparison.

I'll quit defending Komi when someone who actually has a horse in the race asks me to. ;) 

That would be because you lack compassion and empathy. You don't know, because your understanding is centered on yourself.

I'm not the one that's only here to cry about not getting my freebie yet.

Just to be clear:

This is NOT a purchase. The product is free. You're bashing a dev that is providing a FREE PRODUCT because he hasn't finished it yet. But I'm the asshole. Right. You're out here demanding something you didn't even purchase, but I'm the asshole. ... do you even see what you're typing?

I'm not riling anyone; I'm defending the dev. Sorry if it bothers you that I'm not just letting you and your buddies attempt to destroy Komi's livelihood and credibility for taking his time. I don't give a shit that nobody asked me to-- I've said it before:

Y'all are like schoolyard bullies, beating on this dev because you think it will get you your freebie sooner. I'd stand against dispicable behavior like that any day of the week. The real question is this: what kind of person are you for condoning it?

You did exactly what I figured you would... hell, what I literally said you would in my reply: you're on here bashing the author, with your hand out for your free stuff-- but I'm the one you think is in the wrong for calling you out on it. It's not delusion when you literally doubled down on what I said you'd do. Congrats. You played yourself. You think you're justified, posting financials (suggesting quite a few nasty possibilities with that one) calling the author slow... all the while saying "it's ok... it'll make them work faster" ... really? You really believe bashing someone so they'll hurry up and give you your freebie is good, kind, and decent behavior? Yeah... you make my point for me. 

Right, I'M the one delusional... XD XD XD

Tell me, Mr. or Mrs. Innocent criticism: if you weren't trying to suggest something nefarious, what WAS the point of bringing their financials into it? 

Allow me to reiterate: the game is FREE. Unless you're contributing to those financials, you're pressing someone to hurry up and give you your free stuff. All the while attempting to damage their bottom line (yes, I'm sure THAT will help) by posting their financials and suggesting either incompetent management or outright grift... perhaps trying to scare off his patrons, or attempting to prevent future contributors (again, SURELY, that'll help move things along...).

That goes well beyond criticism... that's deliberately trying to trash someone's livelihood... because you don't think their working fast enough.

But go on saying you're only trying to give constructive criticism... whatever helps you sleep at night. 

I'm pretty sure I'm not the delusional one... but go on and deflect. I'm pretty sure you'll keep making my point for me.

The game is free. If you don't want to donate, you don't have to. End of story. 

Really classy, belittling someone, posting their financials-- deliberately attacking someone for not giving you your handout on your schedule.

Edit: justifying bashing or bullying someone by saying it speeds things up is absolutely disgusting; it's like expounding on the benefits of a bullwhip because it makes slaves work faster. Justifying it because they do it on another site doesn't make it acceptable, either. Hurting someone that's giving you something for free is absolutely wrong. Hurtful is hurtful, period. When it's directed at someone because they didn't give you your free stuff fast enough, it's just plain shameful.

The sad part here is that most of the people I point this out to try  to say I'm the one being rude or hostile-- I'm here defending someone that is too kind to lock this all behind a paywall and shut down hostile comments. Your hostility may have come "out of the side of your mouth" as it were, but an attack is an attack whether it's passive-aggressive, backhanded, or masked with praise.

Y'all are like schoolyard bullies beating people up for kicks and lunch money. Shameful behavior.

Another edit: the only thing I "gotta" understand is that their monthly earnings are between their patrons and themselves. I don't honestly care about the data.

Because it's shitty to belittle and bully someone that's giving you a handout for free.

XD

XD

Heh... how novel. Proves my point again, though. XD

Your second post is much more reasonable... Glad you saw the light, at least.

You keep making my points for me... and resorting to personal insults is the last resort of a beaten opponent. Name calling, especially... Pandy? I'm flattered. It's hard to make anyone believe you aren't mad when you turn to toxic behavior like name calling and references to sexual deviancy. No argument against you? My guy, you just got finished saying I was goading you, and that's why you responded... if you aren't flamed, why you making it personal?  

XD

You'll still take that update for this free game when it arrives, won't you, big guy... XD

If you don't get it, you don't get it. This game has sat in the top ten most popular adult games on Itch for a long time... so long, in fact, that Komisari could turn this into a demo page, turn off comments, and only offer updates to his patrons... leaving you to wonder (and comment) to yourself. At least then they could develop in peace, instead of having to come here to defend themselves against cyberbullies that think it's good form to post financials in public forums, or to try to chase people off (how very classy). You didn't pay a dime for this game, but you're here to complain that it's not done yet? ... who's the "Yandere"?

The best part is this: you'll return, and take the free update, because Komisari is too kind to do what I described above. You'll be 'eating that crow' in private, but we'll still know. ;) Enjoy.

This developer made this game with NO previous knowledge of game development. It's got an engrossing story, great humor, developed characters, minigames-- literally hours of content (and very few bugs-- in fact I've never run into one, although I'm told there are a few, I've never been able to reproduce them) and days of it if you're a completionist. It's been in the top ten most popular adult games on Itch.io since I joined the site, which is why it was one of the first I ever downloaded-- for all of these very good reasons. The developer is active in their Discord community, offering sneak peeks, progress reports, and a great group of deviants to chat with while you explore it all. It will keep you playing longer than many paid titles on Steam, and it's free.

Are you still wondering why people love this game, or this dev?

Again: IYKYK. If you don't... well, my guy, your words don't carry as much weight as you think they do. ;) 

A couple things to remember when it comes to any adult game/AVN: Sounds = file bloat... it gobbles up space. Voice acting (yes, even for just moans) is both expensive to hire, and hard to find. Plapping noises are different: you can make those easily with the right materials, and you can reuse them as needed. CH has a pretty large cast of characters, so you'd need a pretty diverse range of voices for moans, grunts, whimpers, gasps, and whatever else you can think of... now you have higher overhead (considering Vert is building this AVN on nothing but donations, that isn't a small thing) and a massive sound file (all fun and games until you're at the mercy of mega or mediafire)... As nice as it would be (for some of us-- others would mute any sounds so we could continue playing without traumatizing anyone walking past the door) a lot of folks don't know how much they're asking for when they ask for moans or voicing. 

Make a save the morning of the date. You can't rewind, but you can reload. Charlotte's date was much harder to get right-- had to reload three times to get the perfect date.

*literally, *would, *You're, *assumptions, *you're (again)... I've never seen anyone get so shook they completely misspell that much of the first sentence they type, especially since the reply window is spell-checked... being literate (and articulate) helps when you're trolling a public forum (or attempting to, anyway) my guy.  XD

Hmm, right, why would you lie about that? Clearly you're very pleasant and polite, on here bashing folks that can't even defend themselves-- mainly because your identity is hidden behind a throwaway account here on Itch... but you're right about one thing-- I'm one of them.  The way you're running your keys right now? I guarantee I'm 100% correct in those 'assumption(s)'. XD

I'm going to plug the Patreon real quick, because Vertigo doesn't like to 'toot his own horn', so to speak: Lowest tier is dirt cheap, once per month, and you get sneak-peeks, frequent devlogs, and early access for less than lunch at Chipolte... once per month. This dev is worth it. Play this game-- it'll prove my point. If you absolutely can't, at least rate the game-- a little love goes a long way! The discord is a great group of folks, too, and that's free!

Gonna plug this again, because this dev is definitely worth the extra mile:
The top tier of NCrow's Patreon membership is cheaper than getting lunch at McDonald's... and it's only once a month. Just some information-- food for thought, so to speak. It's awesome getting the updates right out of the gate, and the devlogs are usually full of sneak-peeks... plus you can connect to the Discord and chat with NCrow and the rest of the community. Lowest tier is about as expensive as an energy drink at the gas station... and again, it's a once per month thing. HIGHLY recommend.If you've played this game, you already know it's big enough and awesome enough to deserve a tip-- the game is free, and it's in the TOP 5 top rated games on Itch. Worth it!

The update so far is outstanding, and the animation is everything we've come to love from this dev-- so much attention to detail, and the sheer number of animations is kinda crazy for just one update! No generic KK-basic-H-animation, here... and no spoilers beyond that. Tier 2 and 3 for patrons released a couple hours ago, with the promise of finishing touches still to come... Seriously, if you haven't considered supporting, try it for a month-- it's worth it! 

La actualización hasta ahora es sobressaliente, y la animación es todo lo que hemos llegado a amar de este desarrollador: tanta atención al detalle y la cantidad de animaciones es una locura para una sola actualización. Aquí no hay animación genérica de KK básica en H... Y no hay spoilers más allá de eso. Los niveles 2 y 3 para los patrocinadores se lanzaron hace un par de horas, con la promesa de los últimos retoques aún por llegar... En serio, si no has pensado en apoyar, pruébalo durante un mes: ¡merece la pena! ~Traducido por Google para todo el español Hablando en los comentarios~

It's out for tier 2 and 3 for patrons, currently... released a couple hours before you made this comment, actually... and it was totally worth the wait-- you'll see!

With comments like that, I'm rather doubtful you 'left' the Discord. I'd have to guess you got the boot-- probably for trolling... Unsurprising, considering you're trolling here on an account less than three months old. XD

En Discord, el momento del día es importante durante la semana (a las 8:00 p. m. CST); los fines de semana, en cambio, hay tanta actividad que resulta difícil seguir el ritmo de las conversaciones. No obstante, el enlace de arriba es correcto. Es posible que simplemente hayas tenido mala suerte con el horario. Utilicé el Traductor de Google para escribir esto, así que espero que se entienda bien.

I wish I could post some of the stuff I've seen in the devlog section of the Discord... game play vids less than a week old that show new inventory mechanics--- and so much more. Seriously, the Discord is FREE. Go look, if you doubt.

Again: IYKYK. If you don't... well, my guy, your words don't carry as much weight as you think they do. ;) 

I would 100% be on board with that, if NCrow decides to, but there again, it may be cost-prohibitive... guess we shall see. =)

hmm... not real sure why it's not letting you see. Do you have menus? can you show a screen grab?

Android or iPhone?

First: that's not even supposed to be operational until September-- Way, WAY after this update hits. I'd say at least 2-3 updates away (this one is extra large, hence the extra time) and Second: Google has already stated there will be a way for devs to register/identify their apps... and that is IF Third: it won't be possible to disable the blocker to begin with... which Google is still debating, as it may lose custom-- the argument being that owner's choice is a major feature of Android OS.Try not to panic. There is also the Fourth: Jailbreaking is not a new concept. You just know some enterprising person will find a workaround. ;)

Pro Tip: once she becomes available, visit her often. ;)

Check your quests, but also check the hints offered on the ladies' profiles-- sometimes you'll find something that wasn't very obvious will help you progress...

If you join the Patreon (I believe there is a free tier-- no perks, but devlogs, etc.) you will feel better about the wait... also, join the Discord! NCrow is active there (they like to lurk, LOL)... that part is always free! =D Rest assured, the new update is coming very soon. The main reason it's taking so long is that NCrow has something rather large coming-- I'm not gonna spoil anything-- but it's really big compared to some of the other updates. This is info straight from the Patreon, and it's been in the works for a while. NCrow won't let you down... have a little faith, or join the Discord, and know for sure!

I'm gonna copy/paste for a sec here, because this has come up before... in the end, it's up to NCrow, of course, but previous discussions brought up various points that must be considered:
------------VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV-------------

<I'm not sure how likely that is-- for two reasons: voice acting is expensive (it's different with plap noises or wet noises because anyone can make them) and the second reason is file bloat-- sounds are big files-- with such a diverse cast, it would blow up the size of the game very quickly, and GW is already not so small. It's all fun and games until you're DLing 7-8 gigs on the downloader, at the mercy of the server connection speed. I get what you mean, I'm just not sure the logistics are as feasible as we'd like them to be. NCrow is good, but we don't want to break them...>
These points were brought up in the Discord under much the same circumstances. NCrow may try it anyway, but between cost and bloat <shrug> I wouldn't blame them for avoiding the headache, especially with a cast that big... and re using voices seems a bit cheesy-- I don't think NCrow would dishonor the ladies like that... even the mean ones.
