I was a big supporter of this game for the first two seasons. I bought the game on three separate occasions.

I'm so confused... is there a way to unlock the NSFW scenes without subscribing to their Patreon? I just want to pay one time for the games like before but I don't know how and don't want to accidentally buy something I don't want. Does anyone know how to do this with a link to the right thing? Thanks in advance.

Here's an invite link from the server, hopefully it works: https://discord.gg/tKXW47vE
Though the dev hasn't been very active on Discord either... very disheartening but I hope everything is at least okay with them.

Very excited to read it! I can understand the anxiety around restarting something you've already put out, but I'm glad that you're constructing a full package that you're proud of.

Via the dev on Discord: 

"I wanted to share a quick update, since some of you may have noticed that my Patreon page is currently offline. 

Patreon removed the page following a Trust & Safety review related to a post I made on January 4 about an interactive story scenario. I submitted an appeal and follow-up information to clarify the situation, but Patreon has ultimately decided not to reinstate the account. 

To be clear: Bound by Night is still in active development, and nothing about the game itself has changed. The visual novel has been in development since 2021 and is built in Ren’Py using images I create myself in Daz Studio (not AI-generated). The Patreon page existed to support development progress, behind-the-scenes updates, and sneak peeks. 

I’m currently exploring next steps for community support and development updates. Patreon indicated I may be able to apply again in the future after a waiting period, but it’s still unclear what that would look like in practice (for example, whether a future application could be for Bound by Night specifically, or would have to be structured around a different VN). I’ve asked for clarification and will share more once I know. 

In the meantime, I don’t want anyone to feel like the project is on pause or that you’re being left in the dark. The next development update will be published directly to Itch.io at no cost to supporters, and I’ll continue posting updates through my usual channels as well. 

Most of all: thank you. Your support has meant a lot to me, and it’s a big part of what’s kept this project moving forward. I’ll post another update soon once I’ve confirmed the best path forward. 

Thank you again for sticking with me, 

Snow"

2 things:

1) how do you use the plug to advance the Ryan quest?

2) I'm having an issue where I try to go to the stadium for a game on Sunday noon, but after I click "listen to the coach," to start it, the screen just goes blank and I can't progress. It's week 12 in my game if that matters. Wondering if anyone knows anything about it.

Ok, thank you for the transparency. He is super hot :)

I'm a gay man who only plays Celebrity Hunter for the Nathan romance. I'm assuming I've got no more than one option like in CH. Is there much for gay guys like me to enjoy in this game?

Gotcha, thanks for the reply

Any m/m content or plans for m/m content in the future?

Yes I play on PC. The attached image is of the crash when I went to work the next day after breaking off with Pricsila. I'll reply with another post with an image of the bar crash report.

Having a problem with the game. Error after trying to go to the bar OR work after I broke things off with Priscila over the phone.

I believe when you buy it on itch for $10, you're getting the next episode ahead of the free version AND all future updates.

With the Patreon version, you would have to re-subscribe every month (hence why it's a subscription) to get the most up-to-date version, which seems to be 2 episodes ahead of the free version as opposed to 1.

So yes, you would get a newer version of the game for the same price or cheaper up to the first two months, but you would have to keep paying beyond that to continue getting the most recent release.

I'm not a dev and I don't sub to their patreon so idk the full details, but I believe that's how their pricing model works. Hope it helps.

Seconding the other comment. MEGA says the files are too large and exceed the transfer quota, so we have to pay to upgrade or wait over 5 1/5 hours to download for free.

I'm typically the kinda person that really only sticks with one romantic route in games like these. It just makes the route I feel most strongly about more meaningful. But I enjoyed the game so much that I decided to follow every route. There were no duds!

Diego was originally who I was deadset on, but while I still enjoyed his route, Levon ended up being my favorite. <3

Aww, I hope it wasn't too bumpy of a ride! 😅

Still loving the game, btw! Hope you get to enjoy its success, and that you can take care of yourself, too. Happy Pride!

I was one of the people who was lambasting the game because I thought I got burned on the Kickstarter. And now I feel I'm one of the game's biggest fans because it's honestly very good.

Maybe it was just that my expectations were so low, but there is a ton to this game. It's longer than I thought it'd be, lots of variety between the many routes, and treads some unexpected ground in terms of LGBTQ+ issues. It's not too deep, but it does feel like Coming Out On Top with respect to the heart that shines through in the game's writing. You can tell that the creator loved what they were doing in spite of the pain it was clearly causing them.

The inconsistency of the art holds it back somewhat, and I'm still figuring out how I feel about its structure, but overall I think AMAP is fantastic!

Always happy to see more Captain Crush <3

I think the proposed change is a great, and is usually my preferred visual method for visual novels tbh

Yup, I'm seeing it now! Thanks for the help, though!

Got it! Looks like the page just had to update, but thanks for your help! :)

Gotcha, thanks for the update! Seeing it nice and clear, now. Glad I wasn't just suddenly losing it lol

idk of I'm just ignorant or not looking closely enough, but I'm not seeing where to donate. I see at the top of the page it says 'click view bunde to support the project' and at the bottom it says "please donate on the bundle page,' but I'm not seeing where to do that on this page. I'd love to support, but ig I'm too simple to understand how >.<

I can solemnly say that I am definitely a Draco kinda guy. He seems like a world-class himbo 

OMG hell yes I had no idea Chad was gonna be a primary love interest and I'm SO here for it. Talk about a pleasant holiday surprise!
