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!
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 agree, this game is amazing and is such a shame that it is treated as a extra thing, I know that the creator said that the other project is more rentable, but I do hope that this one is successful enough that he expands on this series, there is a spin-off planned but I would kill for some dlc where other girls also do the starmaker thing, Alice would definitely do it, Emma on her corrupted route too, and the other well something can come up lol. I just want to see this world expanded cause it's one of the best things to come out of the adult game sphere in a long time.
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
Alice and Norah content is not completed yet as Alice quest will continue in later versions.
About Ms. Kimura, no other characters will have starmaker pages. Himari and her have a chance to get more content.
Anna receives new content every version. More solo interactions are planned for the future. No selectable outfit for gameplay is planned as the amount of work for a side project would be increased by a lot, but more specific actions for specific outfits are planned, like the golden bikini during movie night.
There wont be a "Starmaker 2" but theres a chance for a spinoff to happen, not guaranteed, just a chance. (It wont have any of the current characters nor it will be in same location)
The point is that I want couple more CGs which Anna sniffs MCs cock and touches her lips and face (as a CG) when we wing it.
And It'll be much better if Joseph (and maybe even Adrian) be a literal cuck, desperate and just jerks off when we fuck Anna and Anna/MC calls both of them losers and humiliates them when praising MC and his cock. It'll be much better if this can be a route.
That would be Ken, no other plans for others to become closer to Anna. She has the extra park scenes for the slut route for your second question.
no animated scenes are planed to be implemented, only the animations during minigames. This is because of the time for production and work, remember this is a side project, its a matter of:
Current amount of content per version vs 2-3 animated scenes.
1. No plans on any body parts expansion.
2. There will be pregnancy, but it wont be a system per se. More like a series of events. Is not set in stone yet how it will be handled, but it wont be a "pregnancy system"
Hey Arvus, question about pregnancy.
You made a werewolf scene on anna's slut route. Is there a pregancy possibility from him in a future?
the werewolf scene is an easter egg and obtainable in both routes. Weekend characters are not planned to be expanded, outside of the possibility of Mei.
it would be cool if Mei ends up getting pregnant and moves to the peak city since it resulted in her divorce
if you are talking about having one on the game I ain't found it. if you are talking about the windows menu I typically have some kind of music playing so I dont mess with my sound but honestly I dont ever need to use the windows menu i'll be honest I forgot about it and will apologize for not thinking about that but to be fair most games have built in sound controls so It doesnt come up often. 
Feet - Would be nice to see this as part of Wednesday Yoga. The scene could start as a mistake (innocence/naiveite) and progress as Anna becomes more corrupted (Slut Route)
As a plus it would also be nice to see Anna start wearing her Gym outfit during Yoga after her visit (joining in variant)
That type of futa content - It is really not that kind of game, try something like Heritage by GeppettoPossum if want that kinda game...
1. No, decisions have consequences, and most if not all are advised on what the route is.
2. Animations will stay just for the minigames, low chance of having more like Alice's.
3. Maybe
4. Not impossible, but no thoughts atm
5. Already been thought out to implement those for the solo route
6. No plans to add more holidays.
1. It wont happen. Haniya and Gab are the stable relationship in starmaker, it wont have a steal route.
2. There wont be animations, as stated before is: current version amount of content vs 2-3 animations.
3. A gallery for non repeatable scenes is being thought out for after the game is fully completed, but is not a guarantee to happen.
4. Other might be able to join the basement later, but this will be after a specific quest for the character to join, and no, it wont be most of the girls.
6/7. There will be content with them in the future.
It might be thought out, right now you can see the path Anna inclines to under her heart level.
nothing fully set in stone at the moment, but the idea is only mc, as it would be really a problem if others could. Claudia has chances to get more content, but not a 100%
it would be interesting if Anna get pregnant on slut route and MC getting the news as surprise
good morning,
While some things will be fleshed out, do notice a couple of things. Anna is no saint, she had a "no touching" deal, but her intentions were always to let out her slutty side and was interested in mc. She wanting to get the cock picture is not because mc is "big", is because she wants to keep pushing him into doing her and is looking for an excuse, while also wants more views; him being big is a plus to her. Btw she does know how big mc is afterwards which she mentions to Charlotte on mondays(is just not directly said)
While a dialog to say "we are going away for the weekend" could be implemented, is not really a big thing, but we shall see.
And lastly, yes, there are some events out of place which will be reviewed after completion or fixed little by little which each installment.
Thanks for the feedback and have a nice day.
Hey there,
Thanks for the reply Dr. Muramasa. Yes, I acknowledge Annas nature but I hope there still will be some fleshing out of some logical inconsistencies or have some of the motives "on screen" instead of implied. Keep in mind if its Anna who wants it she should be the one to grope first, but right now MC is the aggressor. I believe doing all the mentioned things in the shower scene, a kiss maybe also, is the easiest way to address it all with just a few extra CGs and lines of dialogue. I would prefer a more elaborate approach with multiple scenes (I believe this first major taboo break and the very end "breeding" to be the crucial points in Annas plotline) but I do have the devs resources in mind.
Best wishes
"She wanting to get the cock picture is not because mc is "big", is because she wants to keep pushing him into doing her and is looking for an excuse" - Again I will use this example the hotel scene (before the cock pic) after the beach does not make a lick of sense going by this statement.
She has obviously got a glimpse of the package by this point and it is all she can think about. I always get the impression she could not care less really about Starmaker numbers, it is just a means to spice up her life from a failing marriage.
I will not let this die, the early game needs some major attention with one of the last 3 major releases.
Idea - This can be resolved with features that work their way into end game as well. One example that comes to mind is a "Hands of God" trait where the MC gets to learn to massage. It starts off with Anna having a bad back or something, so he offers to give her a rub. She tells him he is OK but could do with a little work. He then goes off to learn how to massage (This could be a new area like the gym or for a scaled back method online courses using the computer.) The Anna scene can then escalate and this opens up story progression and could fill in gaps, while also having the opportunity to be used for other characters
Absolutely. Also, the first vacation needs to be mandatory then to progress the cock pics or something. She can acknowledge his cock with either Leilani (oh god why does MC have such a...) or the night scene. And during the same vacation MC can oil her tits up with a completely normal reaction which feels as premature as the Tuesday shower. What do you think about my other points? Early game is where its at...some things happen too sudden or out of context right now.
💯on kissing now I think about. It does go from 0-1000 doesn't it. There should be some kissing progression. Peck on the cheek (for cleaning pots) > Quick kiss on the lips (early in corruption maybe some dialog "Sorry that was a mistake, I should not have done that") > Then to full romantic/passionate/seductive kissing (depending on playthrough choices)
Right. The dish one feels right, or for buying groceries (no acknowledgement as of now) a peck as a reward and the third time around it lands on the mouth or something. Tongue not before BJ. All groping not before BJ or some (clothed) groping event where the subsequent gropings make sense, something along the lines of "help me up...mhm...what are you..." as I outlined. Or massage as you said since she complains about back and therefore does yoga, and some progression there from safe zones to ass to tits.
cannot make a vacation mandatory, even less when specific actions need to be taken for the night scene to trigger. On the topic of sudden changes, yes, the game moves fast, and not everyone can be pleased. Theres a good chunk of users that want a slower and more meaningful transference from one point to another, while others want to get to the full spice. The way that it is now is a good middle ground.
Again, ideas are not bad, but not everything can be done, not everyone can be pleased. And yes, theres some inconsistencies/"plot incoherent moments" that are noted and will be fixed in the future.
It was meant as "is not just because he's big". She does care for the starmaker numbers, she likes the attention. As previously stated, yes, there are some inconsistencies and early game can be fleshed out, but, some things are not just fully presented to the player and instead are just briefly said on dialogs. Not that the idea of the massage is bad, but the groping is ok right now. She wants it, but also wants to play it as is not her.
I would think this would be very unlikely. Games with a school/college setting have a very hard time getting through the Steam approval process.
Dr.Muramasa, is Kal at least gonna post a teaser picture soon to softened the wound? ☺️
Sorry think you missed the intent of this request. These bullet points are items that could be part of dream sequences.
Dreaming of stuff that will already happen (e.g. blurry image of Anna going Nude using content which is already in the game) before it happens)
Dreaming of other characters in the studio and bedroom (quick contents with a couple of lines) as what if content)
My other bullet points are just ideas for a little fun as part of dreams including content that was made but will never be used. Then also have a little fun with some ideas such as quick cheap animations and different art styles. Bit like a behind the scenes feature.
No worries, no missed interpretation. There're no plans to introduce dream sequences, and the only way in which a character will be shown at the studio is by actually joining it, which will have a quest related to it for that character to join, this last point we have already stated and there's no plans to change it. Same for the animations.
You say that 😅 But that is not what I am asking. I am asking for a fun way for the developer to add some fun content or some scraps they have laying around which could never used in the game proper and at the same time using the function as way to expand the story. Every developer/artist has stuff on the cutting room floor and I am sure Arvus is no exception.
Not to come off as rude but it would be nice to have some insight into the release management of this project at times. This forum can seem like a bit of a void, with standard answers being yes, no or maybe. Never that a story (feature request) or bug will be raised and triaged with Arvus Games. Some roadmap or progress report would be nice if not for this project for future ones. (For examples Breadman handles this really well, and even his typical response to a community post is "F Ourself" 😅)
I understand Starmaker is a side project, but still it cannot be healthy working like this when it seems like nothing is truly focused and it is one project to the next.
This is a side project done only by Kal when he isn't working on RS; there's no roadmap because there's really non. If we would make a roadmap for things that are not set in stone, then people would complain when the idea changes or if it's not implemented, just like the complains about the farmlands not being part of 1.6. On the bugs side, we answer from time to time if is something known and that if it is something that will be worked on, there's a bug channel on the discord and that is managed constantly.
Requests are taken into consideration but ultimately is decided if it will be done or not, but not how until the update that will feature it comes near. Major parts of the update are what's advised here on itch, just like the post says, the major focus this time is: The new Harbor zone, and the characters that will be receiving more amount of content outside of Anna are: Emma, Frost, and Astrid.
Content I can understand but surely bugs need to be on some kind of internal ticketing system with replication steps and severities or they would just get forgotten about when working other projects?
There should be zero expectation of any release, though tiding up the process as you go has to be done. I mean for example the first post in this forum states:
Which we know is now a "maybe" so it should be removed or least have note like "(Should it be low cost, upon release of 2.0)" This type of stuff curbs expectation.
Heck I would be happy if Kal posted "Gone on holiday for two weeks, see ya later losers" from time to time. Communication is obviously a blemish which has been admitted by Kal himself in the last Patrion post for Starmaker, though nothing appears to have happened yet?
"I am asking for a fun way for the developer to add some fun content or some scraps they have laying around which could never use in the game proper".
I did answer to that, the game does have scenes that were not implemented because those didn't make sense for the game/ something else was done instead, but those won't be done into dream sequences, not in other ways.
Glad you are enjoying the game. There's a lot of routes and things to discover, most ppl find new scenes even when think all is done.
As for harem route, right now is only Anna and Charlotte, once the endings are reworked "harem route" will be tops 3 girls, ofc you still can be on solo routes with the others.
As for official relationships: Kate, Toni, and Himari (to an extent) are official relationships, Kate even having an ending.
Astrid will receive content in 1.8
As for things to spend money on, there will be more, but is not really a main thing that's been aimed for.
