I quite like the new stuff though one thing that did bug me was how, if you were to say have Molly pounce on you one night, the entire day goes and you get pounced on by another, Roxie or someone else, another day passes and then one more day passes and it's Molly again. I don't think it makes sense for the girls to be pouncing on the player back to back like that. I think it's a little too punishing to have any of the girls sap all 250 energy each day. I think it should instead sap 240 and leave only 10 if the player has reached that amount of energy, at least that way the entire day isn't gone. The only saving grace is that sometimes on Friday you get mail and Sunday you are immune from being pounced due to the next threshold being met.

I did find one bug and a simple error with the night visits. The bug involved the inventory briefly being displayed on a replayed scene. Not entirely sure why it happened or how attempting to recreate it caused the inventory to briefly stop working. It worked proper after going to the map and back. The error in the night visits is that, the girls, aside from Juno, don't have their names capitalized.

All in all, pretty good. Can't wait to see what's coming next and I'm happy to see the progress made especially so with the quality of life feature of just selling the crops in 1, 10, and 100 units each. I do wonder if we can ever thank the Mail Carrier at some point. She's real helpful and seems lonely on the job. The only thing I have no use for is the hot pepper since it doesn't really help out much with the crops harvested even with improved speed to approach, I do hope the other 2 wandering vendors get their scenes in the next update or the one after. They seem lonely and a bit needy. Roxie is quite an interesting addition and I wonder if her final scene is that of an Amazon position given her strong nature.

LFG! I'll be sure to report any bugs or errors I find. What a great load of content.

BAB would be my vote on it. Good to hear that the bugs are being squashed for the itchio release.

Oh yeah I'm not sure if it's fixed for part 2 but, there's some typos. In the new scene with Claire during the BJ segment it's supposed to be the player speaking and not Claire. I think it happens a second time during the climax of that scene before a choice as well. The typos I saw were during the date with Claire if I remember right. Otherwise I really do like the inclusion of the girls having a breaking point of being pent up for too long. I haven't tested much further than getting the new scenes but I really enjoyed getting to know more about Claire and her past. It fits and it's quite refreshing all things considered for a harem protagonist to be praised for how he handles the girls. Even if he left them pent up for 2 whole weeks haha. Either way, I look forward to this game's continued development and hopeful completion.

You have blessed my day, thank you. I'm happy to have continued following the development of this game.

Congrats for getting it onto Steam!

Cheers to that! I'm surprised that so far in the screenshots at least, you haven't setup a massage parlor or a hotel place just yet. Heck the Massage Parlor might be enough of a setting for an entire game based on "happy endings" and all that. But one I know for sure would be difficult yet fun has got to be a sort of Security Room where most of the time you're just watching cameras and making sure you're reporting correctly. Though I do wonder if we'll see any holiday based settings like Christmas or Halloween parties. I know whatever comes next will be a blast.

Congratulations on completing the game. It looks fantastic as a finished project. It would seem I missed out on quite a bit since I last saw it but I'm sure it's filled with a lot of fun situations and a real handful to manage. Cheers!

Just went through the update's new content. Great that we were finally able to save Akari. The scene involving the car reminds me of all things, that one edit someone made of The Pelones death scream. I can see that Yuno's next scene isn't ready yet but at least the foundation for what's coming is setup. Although... I think this is just a script oversight but for some reason after going through with Lena's massages if you've reached the max level and you've done her club scene. If you attempt to interact with her again (since she doesn't have any proper event replays just yet), she asks if you could go to the club that night. Except she isn't there. That aside, the story content did ramp up pretty naturally and I do like how the boys realize their "oh fuck" moment when catching on just how little time Akari has left. I look forward to what you got in store for the next update.

I see. Well fuck. I suppose something like JASTUSA would probably be the best spot for a game like this if payment were an option as I've seen a handful of developers move there for their rather spicy titles. Though others are fine selling it here probably because their content is more safe by comparison. It's a miracle this game still stands as is. Thank you for replying, I feel bad that I can't help by donating directly. I'll be sure to update my rating in February when the next update launches.

WOW. That is quite a read through. I bet the supporters are happy but man that's rough and a lot to take in. Completely understandable now at least why the delay happened and why we likely won't see a public release until sometime before Valentines Day. Great to see you back and even better to hear how much progress has been made since. I'm glad you took the time to write this out and present some new screenshots for what to expect. I especially look forward to the more efficient means to upgrade the crops but also adding stuff that helps make the world a bit more believable. It always felt odd that we didn't get any legit cows in this thing. There is only 1 typo in this devlog. You wrote "where changed" instead of "were changed". Either way I'm satisfied to have a more clear picture of what's coming and the serious dedication toward this project. Still though, a whole hour of animations is impressive. I just hope the next update isn't as strenuous to work on. I'm surprised you haven't made a paid option for the itchio page just yet for early adopters.

I look forward to playing it come February once it's out. I wish you the best of luck and hopefully won't have to relocate amongst other life events. Revamping is always a hard thing to do when so much is done. I just wish I knew a little bit more last year. But knowing at least eases my worries for future content and the eventual release of this game. Godspeed.

Damn. That's crazy. To be left alone for a whole year because the guy that was supposed to approve your game just... left. Great to hear it's on GOG. Happy New Year!

Fantastic, though I think there's a typo. You list it as 0.3.5 instead of 0.5.5 below the picture. Can't wait to try it out next month.

I was simply making a point that they haven't done a good job with communicating their progress. Or keeping those who aren't patrons at the very least informed of how things are going. They had this next update scheduled for the fall of this year and didn't meet it. A simple preview would've sufficed to at least let us know that they're still working on the game or why there has been a delay.

Can't wait to see it later into 2026. I really like how things are looking so far. Happy New Year!

Even if you say that it doesn't change how there hasn't been much of any developer updates here on itchio. I had hoped we'd see an update in the fall and now Winter is rolling in and nothing. No devlogs no nothing. I'd get it if you recommended I become a patron and join the discord but publicly speaking they haven't said anything since the past update earlier this year. It builds as much anticipation as it does skepticism with the new update that hasn't arrived. I can only hope they get it out soon in 2026.

Merry Christmas. I hope you get to finish this game to completion. I really enjoyed my time with the demo and honestly I don't know who to look forward to most: The Tomboy, The Strict Teacher, The Comfort Nurse, or the Shy Friend. Each of them on introduction feel realized and I hope their characterization continues. I'm not sure if things will go with the route of each of the characters or if a harem route is considered much later down the line. But if what we've got so far with Ruby, I'm sure things will be tended with good hands. Not many games out there get tomboys right and so far the impression is good. Best of luck and I will definitely be following to keep up with the latest updates.

I hope the game's next update is ready at least sometime in January. It hurt waiting and expecting it to have happened earlier this fall but I'm willing to let that pass if the next update is good. Merry Christmas, I do hope that there are better times to keep us informed at the very least instead of waiting between each year.

Even if this game isn't for me, congrats on completing your game.

Pregnancy sounds like a fine conclusion to the game even if story isn't the most focused aspect. But the way I see it, I feel the protagonist would be a sort of Johnny Appleseed making sure to help the women around him with repopulation efforts. I think Aurelie's mother would definitely play a role in such a suggestion, for real though. I'd like to see it in a future update should it be permitted. Best of luck to you and the people who helped make this game as good as it is. I can't think of any continuity errors or possible mistakes thus far. Either way, thank you and the team for making such a fun experience. It has been by far the least stressful sandbox game I've had the pleasure of playing through. I hope you are well and wish you the best of luck going forward.

Just got through the remaining content... man. You guys did a wonderful job with this game. If I could ask, will there be a proper conclusion to this game or is this the complete project as it is? I'd be curious if we could at some point have an encounter with Aurelie's mom or heck maybe some fun with Nina's security. Either way congratulations are in order you made it to 1.0 and released it.

I simply choose 1280x720  not full screen but for some reason... if you were to change it to 1600x900 your mouse detection gets displaced. As for a "monitor" I am currently stuck using my tv until I get a new one. But yeah, changing resolutions causes the mouse to not be detected correctly. And I just found another bug. If you were to change the resolution from 1280x720 to 1920x1080 your mouse doesn't register anymore. You can still close the window but otherwise can't select the options or much of anything. Hope it gets soon, I may have screwed myself over by testing this out. Is there a way to change the resolutions via a hotkey of some sort?

Error found when beating Stage 1-3 It reads as such:

___________________________________________

############################################################################################

ERROR in

action number 1

of <Unknown Event>

for object obj_guiBattle:

global variable name 'inventory' index (100274) not set before reading it.

at gml_Object_obj_guiBattle_CleanUp_0

############################################################################################

gml_Object_obj_guiBattle_CleanUp_0 (line -1)

Why is the Next button so low? I played on a different resolution and after beating Stage 1-2 I got the barrel and... now I can't hit next. Luckily just closing the game let me proceed but... why is it on the lowest resolution doesn't give you full view of the game? It just clips under the taskbar. The only work around for this would be to temporarily move the taskbar to the left of right of my screen... I hope some of this gets sorted soon. Also when on higher resolutions it gets a little finicky when selecting other resolutions. Not sure if a problem on my end or if that's just something that needs to be worked on. Edit: Windows 11 is vile for not letting me move the taskbar to the left or right like it used to be...

OK. I deleted my past save data and that fixed it... should probably warn others who have played past builds to do so. Took a bit to find it but after doing so it sorted itself out. I'll report anything else I find. It's been a while since I last played.

I don't know why... but I can't even select the villager nor the barrel bomb during the waves. Instead the slot is treated as if it were empty. Was somehow able to beat the first two levels without it but is otherwise impossible until this bug gets fixed. I also for... whatever reason managed to force levels in stage 1 I haven't even reached appear by moving the pages 1 and 2 in Stage 2's page. I can view all of the gallery scenes in spite of this. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to at the moment or have earned them by either losing or winning the battles. Heck I even encountered a code error during stage 1 level 2 when beating it. I ended up aborting the thing so sadly I cannot provide the code error number. even when beating it a second time.

If anyone is stuck with the press da button segment, it's a bit of trial and error with which one you're supposed to click as seen in the screenshot. But the last one you just have to wait until the button falls asleep. That's it.

It's a fun throwback to a classic flash game. Honestly, was a bit surprised how you ended up reaching the scenes. High art with quite a surprise for how you're supposed to win the button game. Only shame is that it ended and I couldn't replay the experience in any way. Especially once I realized you could right click to hide the text box.

Great to see such progress toward development. Gave the update a go... I quite liked it. I wonder if we'll be encountering Aurelie's mother at some point. I'd be interesting to see her given just how powerful of a figure she is. Though... I do wonder what the protagonist has to eat in order to keep up with the demand of these thirsty women.

Relaying an error I found from the thread. Found a minor typo during the Beach scene with Jaiden. Vanessa says "Man like him are always a bunch of perverts" when it should be "Men". I also noticed while visiting homes in the morning, Elizabeth's option had an ' for some reason. Have not found anything else of note. Solid update, wrote full thoughts on it in the Thread.

Gave the new update a go... man. That's a lot to take in. It's nuts, though I haven't gone for the submissive route for the gym trainer, I really like how the story is progressing. Hopefully it isn't too stressful to get through the next section of development because this update had quite a bit especially with the story. Hopefully we can also get another level for the massages sometime soon if not next year at least. I'm liking how it's going so far and wish you all the best.

Really enjoying it. Found a minor typo during the Beach scene with Jaiden. Vanessa says "Man like him are always a bunch of perverts" when it should be "Men". I also noticed while visiting homes in the morning, Elizabeth's option had an ' for some reason. But I also really like some of the quality of life additions like the choice to wait until midnight when going to the fortune teller. I really like Jaiden's story for this update, the fact not only did we have a cute date but both characters stood against Vanessa. Makes me think of just what other things we can do with Vanessa when we do get content regarding her at some point. Felt like she gave the protagonist a real look down seeing as both are at the beach. She hates men but didn't seem too displeased by our appearance but more so our presence. I do hope the side characters get some more love at some point. Have not engaged with the lesbian content but for what it's worth I think the story progressed nicely. Though it did feel a light bit of a disconnect that hanging out with Jaiden after the whole fight on the beach happened. But I genuinely do appreciate how you have been handling her character, coming out of her shell to defend a friend one she has never had the pleasure of being happy with. Benefits or not, it's good to see her happy and appreciated even willing to fight for it. It's good stuff. Makes me think... aside from Samantha, how is Vanessa going to be approached content wise? I know the story is going to go places but activities with her... I imagine are going to be quite different compared to say Samantha who I hope gets a content update sometime next year or something. Looking forward to more of your work, happy to have given the latest update a go.

Amazing stuff. I'll be sure to give it a go when I get the chance. Haven't had much time lately for properly supporting your great work. I hope you have been well.

It has been a pleasure reading your work. I will be giving this a go later this evening I think.

I'll be taking a look at the updated stuff later this evening. Shame that it is no longer possible to buy it but I understand why. If there was a proper home for Shadow Island, JastUSA is probably the best place for it. They've been allowing people who have had their games sold originally on Itchio be sellable over there as well as some games on Steam that got booted. I will make sure to write another comment to share what I think of these new changes, additions, and how well things have flowed compared to the original. I hope you've been well, can't wait to see what comes next in the content side of things.

I completely understand. You did great for something so ambitious. I send you and your computer my condolences. Man. If you can report back, how far along would the final update have been? If so, not now but perhaps later, how would things conclude if development was still going on strong? I hope you will have a bright future after this. I don't expect a remake or remaster of this project anytime soon but I'm certain this experience may come handy some other day should the stars align.

Good to know. I was real happy with this update. Very satisfying to not only be able to sell the vegetables once all of their tiers were maxed but also finding the new photos in the scrap book. Can't wait to see if there'll be fun with the delivery lady and the other two weekly vendors. That and of course the Dark elf herself... feels kind of bad for her that she only leaves our roommate high and dry by her at the end of each week even if I've made over 1 Trillion. I patiently await the next content update.
