How can I increase lust in the game?

To increase lust, focus on the chest or buttocks until you reach the minimum requirement for scenes to unlock.

What should I do if I get stuck peeping through the door lock hole?

If you encounter an issue where hitting E while peeping through the door lock hole causes you to become locked to the door and unable to move, report it as a bug. The developer is aware of this issue and will address it.

What improvements have been made to lighting and performance?

Lighting improvements include balancing baked lights for the scene with real-time lights for characters. Performance optimizations include disabling motion blur, adding Bloom (which can be disabled in settings), and implementing GPU Resident drawer to reduce CPU load.

What are some upcoming features and changes?

Upcoming features include autothrust, sleep sex, more emotions, character customization, and improved realism with collision between NPC soft parts and genitals. NPCs will also have personality changes on certain days and times, and Susan integration is in progress.

How can I improve the solidity of characters during interactions?

The developer suggests making dicks more solid to avoid a jelly-like appearance during penetration. The softness value may be adjustable in future character creation options.

Can I downgrade to an older version of Unity for better performance?

Downgrading to an older version is not recommended due to potential script compatibility issues and the need for new optimization features in Unity 6. The developer will only consider downgrading if there are serious bugs.

How do I talk to NPCs and complete tasks?

To talk to NPCs, you must be in front of them as shown in the help section (F1). Some NPC tasks cannot be interrupted. Currently, Stacy and Katherine are available for interaction.

What is the release schedule for new content?

New content will be released exclusively on Patreon initially but made free to everyone by the weekend or next week. The developer aims to maintain a balance between public and exclusive releases.

Relationship Management

• To improve relationships, focus on activities that your character likes and avoid those they dislike. For example, Stacy enjoys music and pets but dislikes crime and politics.
• Katherine (Maid) appreciates conversations about religion and weather, while disliking crime and politics. She also doesn't mind games and food.

Gameplay Bugs

• Be cautious of getting stuck in textures such as doors during gameplay.
• Time seems to pass quickly, limiting the amount of time you can spend talking to characters before they go to sleep.
• There is a bug where leaving and re-entering sex scenes can cause character positions to go up. Sleeping and trying again another day fixes this issue.
• If you encounter issues with interaction after leaving and entering scenes, try sleeping and restarting the game.

Dialogue Tips

• When talking to the maid, compliment her skin, work ethic, and eyes. Discuss topics like love.
• With the daughter, compliment her hair, clothing, intelligence, and skin. Talk about gaming, weather, crime, music, or pets.

Gameplay Mechanics

• At night, use F to turn on a flashlight if needed.
• To initiate sex scenes with the maid, get behind her and press space. This can be done from any position.
• Stroking the chest increases the red bar in interactions.
• Kissing repeatedly gets you closer to the character's face, allowing for more intimate moments.

Progression Strategies

• Wait until 17:20 PM to invite Stacy and play all night. Stroking her chest increases the red bar.
• Undress Stacy before initiating any sexual acts, then get behind her and press space to start the sequence.

User Interface Suggestions

• Consider adding in-game prompts for sex mechanics to make them easier to understand.
• Include HUD displays showing stat requirements for actions like following or stripping.
• Make seduction mechanics optional, especially as they are refined.
