itch.io

Hi All,

I have some question regarding the buying process:

1.) I vaguely remember buying same item multiple time is not possible with itch.io. How about "pay what you want" price? Can people donate money multiple times or only once? If it is possible, and they do, can I browse who donated money and how much in total? Or does it show up as individual donation?

2.) I also vaguely remember that if somebody purchased Tier 1 item but wants to upgrade to Tier 2, they will have to ask refund, then re-buy Tier 2. Is this still true?

Thank you for your time.

Have a nice day!

Thank you for playing the game!

As it is, the MC goes along with the flow, but never tried to change the situation or relationship. Maybe this inactivity is perceived as a 'loser' trait? But this was super short KN project so no room for story development or character progression. lol.

Some did mention why they didn't like it with explanation of why, but some didn't. So I am not too sure for those who didn't explain. 

But anyhow, thank you for playing the game. Hopefully it was entertaining 5-10 min of read. :) 

Well, when I was writing this, I wrote it as MC just making FWB with Pro-chan. But yes, that is one of the most heard criticism out of all. 

The MC is a backbone-less wuss, which is not likable. 

It is okay if the MC is wuss, "BUT ONLY IF the MC tries to change or does something interesting," but the MC doesn't do neither of them, so no redemption in there.

I didn't give too much thought since this was a side gig. In hindsight, I should not have put the "What is your name?" thing there and/or make the MC not a wuss since I knew this would be a short project done with art assets from months ago. (The arts used in this VN were drawn months ago as a Patreon reward.) 

So yeah. I am acutely aware this writing is not that good. I will try to fix it if I try out making VN or KN later. Thanks for the criticism.

To others, I welcome any constructive criticism, but please hold on to just jeering. I don't want to buy more boxes of chocolate. lol. 

 TL;DR; Overall, happy with how many views and constructive criticism I got. I heard lots of mean words because this is "NTR," but few boxes of chocolate should fix my mood. Lol. 

Long version: Although I uploaded this without any ad, I still got a reasonable amount of views and download. Also, few people gave constructive criticism, which was valuable advice for me. 

On the other hand, there were lots of backlashes. Lots of people berated me out of spite of the NTR genre. (It was bad enough that Itch.io deleted most of the ratings. Creators can't delete ratings (if they could, they would be able to manipulate ratings.) They can only enable or disable ratings.)

When I was writing this, I didn't think this would count as NTR. The girl has her harem, and MC is inserting himself in there; she is not a special someone to the main character nor childhood friend. Therefore seeing her banging other guys might be shocking to MC, but it shouldn't cause emotional distress. I see the NTR genre as a type of tragedy, where one explores the catharsis of emotional pain caused by involuntary sexual harassment of his or her significant other. If the girl MC likes don't like MC back, that isn't the girl's fault. (Also, let's admit it. The MC of this story is not likable. lol) I marked this as NTR because someone is offended about it. I still don't think this short novel truly counts as the NTR, but if marking it so would save someone's emotional distress, there is no harm in doing so. (Although now I am getting messages saying they got pranked because this is not NTR, lol.)

Thank you for the feedback! I really appreciate it.

Just FYI, the Patreon link is Butter-T's Patreon, which is strictly illustration-only. We didn't make any Patreon for KN/VN because this was just a side gig we tried. If you liked the picture, it might worth looking around. But you will not find any KN/VN in there.

Butter-T, the illustrator, is busy, so I can't guarantee he would draw standing CG. He is interested (hence I could use his art for this small project), but this was a side gig after all. If he decides to draw it, I will add CGs with some modifications to the game. 

(Modifying the bus stop scene, so players can choose whether or not to leave her or continue with a proof, adding a mute button for music, etc.)

Again, thank you for your feedback! 

Ah, I see. Maybe my writing gave NTR vibe. Well, that was not my intention. The girl is extremely sexually open-minded (i.e., sleep with multiple guys and have no qualms about it). She is completely open about her relationships with other guys from the start and asks is MC ok with such relationships.

If the MC finds out about that kind of relationship later, like the NTR genre, I agree. Then it would be my blunder for not writing a warning this has NTR content. But since this one is just dating (questionable but can't find a better word) an open-relationship-minded woman, not NTR, I thought it would be fine. I added a warning sign on the webpage to give a heads up. Is there anything else?

Sorry to hear you didn't like it. May I ask what bothered you or why you didn't like it?
