I feel like this should be on MC's choices tbh for good netorase.
He's the one who should be calling other men for Anna imo
First entry on page 1 of the thread says May/June, could be tomorrow or still several weeks away yet sadly. It'll come though.
I think this is creating an uncomfortable atmosphere that goes against the principle of game relaxation. Affects the game's visual experience and disrupts the original plot. The story originally revolves around the protagonist. This idea will ruin it. And make the narrative and choices more complex. The purpose of the game should be to relax both body and mind, to overcome any setbacks in life, rather than to find fault and continue tormenting oneself in the game!
You're right! Anna's plot and more details should be enriched. This is an excellent game, I hope you have a great time!
Adding a Rival to the Player as another photographer could be a good idea, but not that if he tries to seduce Anna. The game has already the "Sharing" tag, in case some don't know this is a type of NTR (Netorase more precisely) and some player don't like it, the good side of Netorase is that the player still owns the choice of letting it happen or not. By adding someone that will try to seduce Anna actively, then we would be inserting the tag Netorare which is the act of stealing someones lover. And way more players don't like that type and thus could hurt the game potential. However the idea of expending on Anna's back story could be a good idea, but the issue is that the main plot is not only tied to her, it's also tied to the player, so it becomes tricky to add anything from the "past of Anna and the player" into the game. However as the game is going i don't think it's bad at all. we should just trust Kal and his team, so far they are doing a great job. What i would like to see however is more freedom of action. For exemple, if you choose to free the demoness Nixxara, and Master Zhen goes away after her, it means the temple will now be empty, so what would hold the Player back from exploring the rest of the temple and finding by themselves the Chinese Dress for exemple? There's others things like this that should had been made possible to obtain on any road you take for Anna ( Lover Anna or Slut)
Damn right, broXDXD! You took the words right out of my mouth. The location utilization is kinda weak – feels like they're just shooting for the sake of shooting. Even side quest areas (like the comic store, clubhouse, forest shack, weekday coffee shop and gym) become totally irrelevant after completion.
I completely agree with you, it's just a bit sad since this is just a side game for the devs that we aren't going to be able to see much after the game being done and it won't recieve more scenes, so most definitely some locations are going to be wasted for good, I can only hope that some people do mods about this game to keep it a bit more alive since it's a really good one.
I kind of feel like the emphasis on threesomes by default dilutes the punch of her slut route. It's a compromise to keep the romance fans happy, makes it feel less hurtful to them. But why the hell should you design the slut route to appeal to the romance seekers? I want it to be like charlottes invite to the studio. You get the choice between letting her go to town on anna or joining in with her.
Lol it finally worked out
1. Interactions with River in the studio (dividing Anna, gangbang, or strap-on to his picture)
2. Interacting with Alice in the studio
3. More content with the nurse - well, nyasha
4. There is no possibility of inviting more girls to the studio, maybe more group moments with them (Katya, Phoenix, etc.)
5. More strawberries on holidays
Technically Kate is a red-head, even if she doesn't have that many scenes she's still there
I don’t know if the developers truly mean what they say about this game being just a side project, but personally, I think it has enormous potential. Leaving Anna aside for a moment, the other female characters could easily be expanded into great side stories. I believe most players enjoy harem-oriented content, and the game could truly live up to its name as Starmaker Story by allowing the MC to recruit these heroines as company members—with Anna as the main focus, of course.
Right now, the market is flooded with too many visual novels—whether hand-drawn, comic-style, or 3D—and it’s easy to get tired of them. This game’s art style could definitely carve out a unique niche and even become a standout title, since there are very few truly enjoyable games in this category. From what I’ve seen and experienced, Starmaker Story might be the only one that’s compelling enough to make me replay it multiple times.
I’m really glad to have discovered Arvus Games’ work, and I hope they continue to grow and deliver even more amazing games to players in the future！
Honestly It kind of makes me a little bit annoyed such a great game is being put on the back burner, but instead of making a big deal about it I just decided to vote with my wallet and sponsor it on Patreon. That's my way of encouraging the dev to want to work more on the game that I love.
Specifically, because it's one of the few games that actually integrates romance and kinky sex which is kind of apt for the world and its setting. Makes me feel so much more invested in what's actually happening.
Put it like this if you just turned this game into a brothel sim and removed anna you would have nothing left. Her journey (and maybe some future prospects) is what makes it so interesting and fun.
No insult to the devs but the slow ass navigation system and the event system (It's kind of cool to be honest, but making a app for the player to keep track of events or even the schedule of characters is badly needed. 99% of the reason its so frustrating isnt because you have to wait for the event its that there's so many its really hard to keep track of just from memory. The calendar is helpful but it doesnt keep track of anything besides the quests and visits + you have to be in your room to use it) would have killed a lesser game.
I don't even mind the visual novel element, but most of them are just really lazy and linear. It's like you're just reading a book and clicking to get to the next page over and over. When there's actual choices, gameplay, and stats that's when it gets interesting.
It's to the point that alot of people just use the visual novel tag as "this is a book I made now come read it" when it's actually (in my opinion) a tag that means the game uses text and simple backgrounds along with images. Where a straight up novel game would be something like trials in tainted space where most interactions are actually just words and very few pictures and images.
if i'm not mistaken pregnancy will be added later on so, maybe it's already on their plans something like that. Maybe they will add cycles to anne when she's most fertile too.
In terms of money, I think there is no need to make any changes. This game is essentially a single player game, unlike MMO online games. It should not consume too much energy on how to make money. If it is too difficult to obtain, it will become less fun, and people will mechanically repeat it for money, consuming their enthusiasm for the game content. As long as the game content is rich enough, it will become better
i heard they were looking into a way to unlock or rework Adrian side of things, basically unlocking Japan trip with sharing and without sharing while also granting the players a way to make him leave (for real this time) if we want. So just gotta have some patience.
And to be honest i also am waiting for it... i hope that since we make him and Josef leave, we could instead then invite other girls to live in the apartment building. This could be a cool way on expanding Starmaker like adding more girls to turn into stars all living in the Apartment.
I agree, it would be more fun to have more girls become stars. Like Amelia or Alice would be really awesome to try out.
look for a post named " 1.7" he explained his reason right there and well... can't be helped it worries a lot of people
Hi they said the release will be this week and they have to prolong the update because all the itch io drama, we all excited for the update but dont rush the developers we need be patient and wait, they are working hard as always to give us more content of this great project we all love.
I would be proud of myself if i could understand it without using Google translater 😭
Generally agreed that some more story build up for Anna's corruption would be great! Anna trying on her own (perhaps anonymously, without her face in the photos) and failing at Starmaker would make a lot of sense in the story. Also, maybe something like Josef making fun of her/looking at her negatively for taking those sorts of pictures of herself? It would support why she doesn't want to go to Josef for this.
i know we gotten a scene with her in game but i definitely would love a quest with her in a future update and even more of the characters thats in the background
if you can invite her to the film room that my friend will be the bomb hahaha i love the character the first time i see her the same with Antonia.
dude your right that would be fire to have in the update hopefully we will see something like this in future updates
probably at the end of october. i'm sure some other upsetting event will slow development
Asked some thing between these lines once in the discord server, while not out of picture, i was told it doesn't "fit the vibe" of the game, so it's probably a hard no for some of those like prostitution and abuse, while NTR and corruption are already in the game, you literally steal Anna from your Dude.
Hi, for what i see in comments the dev is in Europe and people said that he inform in discord the release for today 31 after he sleep so i believe that maybe between the next 4 or maybe 8 hours the release will be public.

Hello there,
In case you're not aware, the farm does have some repeatable scenes for the girls as well as a secret npc which also has some repeatable scenes.
Now on the player agency on selecting what Anna wears, sorry but this wont be implemented as it would require a good amount of time for it to be done. But more scenes related to costumes will be implemented in the future. Glad you enjoyed the minigame and overall, the update.
that's a crazy side story to develop. hopefully there's some kind of random encounter regarding Anna's work
