Hello, I'm sorry if this was answered somewhere but I'm doing Chesters route and around the time the convention date starts, both the MC and Chesters sprites constantly have the default expression? If this is intentional that's of course ok, but I wanted to ask in case it's a bug, since the sprites have been pretty expressive up until now.
So... I'm not sure if it supposed to look like that, but in this scene, Chester's hands are overlapped with the bottom part of his costume, as if his costume is just attached on his sprites. Maybe his sprite costume could be tweaked a little?
It's not how that works. Do you think there're a copy of every art with each skin tone and hair color?) Add it is easier than you think, but still a ton of work and a big pain in the ass. However chances for it low not because of it, but because MC beard not appear in storytelling ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Technically you are right. Each art will need its own beard sprite. But at the same time - it can just be a layer that is added on top of the current arts, like it works in the Darius route. Ger is a talented artist and defennetly can nailded that work. But imho the revisiting all story and dialogues for conflicts of MC appearance with the narrative would stop Dyne from adding this to the game. All I want to say is that the pain will be a not to draw 1000 beards on current arts, but trying to implement and make it work)
You know what I think is soooo funny is how Dawn chores puts a loooot of work into there but when I see this just at first glance dawn looks better than a bunch of buff people at least make it look good this is just terrible and it's sad that this pulled just a few more than dawn this look like cringe but other people think differently than me so take this my opinion how you will I am just saying you can do better like dawn better art any way
Ps hope this was helpful rAther than rudejust a suggestion to be like the other better ones.
I do understand that art is subjective to people but the story itself was bad not really my taste I just wanted to say hey you need to fix this also I am just wondering how this has more than dawn chorus the art is just a bunch of buff people/furry's and it dose not make sense at all the story itself is not the good because it like so many others and dose not stand out BUT SOME HOW I DOSE TO OTHERS?!?????
No, you are simply wrong, the story is good and the art is good. See how stupid that sounds? Do you think the creador doesn't put effort in the vn? Mate, i know that's just your opinion, but you can keep it for yourself. If you feel like it's your tea, then I'm glad for you, but if you don't like it, just leave and go play another vn, there's no need to compare it to another vn you read or harass an artist's work.
they dont have to " fix " anything their art style is amazing and better then dawn chorus in MY opinion. dawn chorus is a good one but not my favourite. but i dont go to dawn chorus and say " this isint as good as this one that isint ment to be the same at all! " no. we like what we like and leave shit alone. both are good and you dont need to be an asshole because you want them to change everything for your liking. there is no " fixing whats wrong " to be done. " BUT MY OPINION IS MORE IMPORTANT " apparently go off
people like slimmer appearances and more muscular or chubby. just because they arent the body type you want and find attractive. that doesint mean you can shame people for what they like " its sad that its pulled more then dawn this looks cringe " its disgusting you think you can degrade people and something just because YOU dont like it. i dont like dawn chorus much. if you are more into body shaming more diverse body types then fucking leave. we dont fuck with people like you. you cant backpeddle like " its just my opinion " and go on about how you hate it 3 seconds before. no. fuck off. i HIGHLY doubt youve even played it besides seeing the reviews and huffing going into the comments to write up a storm about how awful it is from the 3 pictures you saw without knowing shit about a single character or story. blind ego rage right there. i read dawn chorus. THEN i decided i didnt like it. i didnt just look at it and go " i hate it im going to leave a nasty comment to hurt the creators feelings that will show them for adding diversity in characters and not appealing to me! "
exactly im glad someone understands that alot of people dont want teenage looking characters in art style. ( nothing wrong with younger looking characters but most people playing these games are adults and its uncomfortable for alot )
Lots of work gets put into making of any visual novel, especially as big as this one. I personally like the artstyle of ExCa and had a lot of fun playing it.
ok liisn all this was not soppuse to happen I thought that y'all just be like well that your opinion and I don't care but nope so uh every one let's just forget about all of this thanks
It kind of baffles me how you think that telling someone what they made is 'cringe' and that it would look better in another style isn't an offensive statement. Even if it's 'just your opinion', it's pretty terrible to tell anyone something like that.
It's like if you walked up to a lady and said "Your baby is really ugly, so you should try making a new one with someone so maybe it'll look like that cute baby over there. That's just my opinion though." See how terrible that sounds? x3
Just have more tact when expressing your opinions next time, or try to be constructive. Constructive criticism or feedback is just fine in most cases (unless folks just don't want that). Or better yet, stick with the saying "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."
oh no now I am cringeing at myself for even doing that also now I kinda sound stupid also I kinda was drinking beer and got little tipsy when I posted that and did not have the best day and so I felt like giving my real opinion on something so now thanks to this experience I know not to do it again in the future TWT
You are kidding! It will never be possible to run this kind of game on iOS. Even if you cut out all the sex scenes, the game will not pass verification in the AppStore.
Btw you can run game on iphone through game streaming services or remote access. For example, you can added this game as third party application in Steam on your PC and play it on iphone through Steam Link. I did that when was too tired to sit at the PC and wanted to lay down with my phone.
hello, I love the game, now I play it for almost three years, I saw that you do not have a discord channel. There are some dialogs with the text bar as if they are talking on the phone when they are actually face to face. Where can I report these errors?
hello dyne! thanks for the update! I'm a die hard fan of the spencer route. I would like to ask if there is a chance of his epilogue coming out later this year. thanks!
First off, thank you so much for creating this game. This is probably going to sound pathetic and silly, but this game saved me. I have been through so much lately and was ready to end everything. I have lost so much recently, but I stumbled onto this game and somehow managed to start with Coach Grifter. I am so much like him it's scary. His story really touched me. I brought so many tears. I can honestly say I didn't want it to end and am sad it's over. I wish I had a love in real life like he has in this game. Your writing skills are just amazing. Thank you for pulling me from the brink.
Hey there, thank you for sharing this message with me. It really means a lot to hear that the work that I've done can help someone out of such a dark place. I'm really happy I can help with something like that, and I hope that you continue to see the light in this world =3
This is pretty obvious. The itch.io version is one month/two updates behind the Patreon version. And it's only updated once a month. In terms of the main game content, this is the only difference. But at different levels of support opens access to additional materials: guides on the site (for the chosen ending) and to the version of the game with a gallery (like arts from game days or music from the game)
i swear to god maria is pulling a monica from doki doki literature club, knowing everything that will/has happened. you cannot prove me that she doesn't at least have small access to the code of the game
Day 16 Maria : Is it awfully late for you to be coming back. Did your interview go alright?" Should probably be "It is awfully late--" Also is there somewhere better to post these? sorry if this is a terrible place
Typos don't have to be posted from public builds. There's a document I link through Patreon for folks to post that stuff (so with the new builds, these things are usually fixed).
check FAQ Talking about MC customization, I'm guessing it's not about money, it's about time. Dyne makes a game solo (except arts). And customization is not a priority number one right now when not all routes are completed. Maybe after they are done. Imho customization is already impressive. The choices is not wide, but it's fantastic that its changes the arts with MC in the game. Btw if someone wants to make huge donation for this task, i guess Dyne wouldn't be against it and shifle a schedule a little bit for itXD He have email for this (i'm still waiting for your reply, @DyneWulf)
I recommend coach's route!!!! It's so heartwarming, It may be quite inappropriate but the main character/you is over the age of 21. He is such a sweetheart!
OML Harold's route is so heartwarming, I loved it SO much! It almost brought me to tears, you did a GREAT job on this VN DyneWulf, i sure do hope you plan on making more!!!!
Hello! Well, I really enjoyed this game, so thank you DyneWolf for this cool vn, and with two more new characters as a bonus, this made this game more interesting, so thank you. But....., I have a slight problem. I already downloaded version 1.151 with the gallery part for the Android version from your Patreon page on my Acer Chromebook laptop , when I tried to go back to the text to explore anymore options so I can unlock everything within the gallery, it won't go backwards. Meaning that no matter how many times I hit the arrow for the text to go backwards, it keeps shuffling me back to the same text all over again, which means I can't go back and explore other options until I have that opportunity again, just like the previous versions where I did that before, and it was no problem, until this version happens. Could you please help me fix my issue? Like I said, it's not a big of a deal. Thank you.
Yes, you still do, but you'll also need to stay update on patreon when the next version for this vn is coming. So thank god this vn it's not worth for nothing.
Speaking of languages, can you translate the game into Portuguese as well? Please! I would like to play the game without having to translate something all the time, you know?
Why not Conrad have a route? Like, he was ex-military with trusting issues and trauma, he was an Full straight guy bit when he meet Eric he start thinking about It. I have an ideia How his route Begin, when Eric choose "Head home" he listen some noise and decide to investigate, then he found Conrad having an breakdown.
I was thinking about It for a time and i be more Thrilled when i read in Richard route that Conrad was an ex-military.
yoooo, I'm going through Harold's route, and I keep getting the exception error, and usually I just ignore it but then I notice I keep getting it whenever Richard is in the scene. Don't know if that's any help, but its been consistent! But overall, I am loving going through Harold's route, going after Spencer next!
I don't know if it's on purpose or not, but some parts of the spencer route are missing, I don't know if I did something wrong or not but I'm curious. at least in the version i was playing
I’m on the last week or so of Darius’ route, and I must admit that the way that route is set up gives a great opportunity for an alternative sub-route where Spencer joins MC and Darius in a love triangle. Considering how much he still cares it did feel kind of sad that inviting him along isn’t an option! x3
One rather small thing that would also be great: An option to be able to choose your man’s outfit on some occasions! Some combinations look quite well on them and it would be great to be able to see them more!

Hello, I'm sorry if this was answered somewhere but I'm doing Chesters route and around the time the convention date starts, both the MC and Chesters sprites constantly have the default expression? If this is intentional that's of course ok, but I wanted to ask in case it's a bug, since the sprites have been pretty expressive up until now.
So... I'm not sure if it supposed to look like that, but in this scene, Chester's hands are overlapped with the bottom part of his costume, as if his costume is just attached on his sprites. Maybe his sprite costume could be tweaked a little?
Please let there be a discord server ,:( I need to simp over Dwayne with fellow Dwayne enjoyers T-T
also how do you move save files? :o
C:\Users\(user name)\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\ExtracurricularActivities
how do you get the beard option for the mc?
It's not how that works. Do you think there're a copy of every art with each skin tone and hair color?) Add it is easier than you think, but still a ton of work and a big pain in the ass. However chances for it low not because of it, but because MC beard not appear in storytelling ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Technically you are right. Each art will need its own beard sprite. But at the same time - it can just be a layer that is added on top of the current arts, like it works in the Darius route. Ger is a talented artist and defennetly can nailded that work. But imho the revisiting all story and dialogues for conflicts of MC appearance with the narrative would stop Dyne from adding this to the game. All I want to say is that the pain will be a not to draw 1000 beards on current arts, but trying to implement and make it work)
if i get the patreon ver will i get all the gallery and not have to redo scenes
You know what I think is soooo funny is how Dawn chores puts a loooot of work into there but when I see this just at first glance dawn looks better than a bunch of buff people at least make it look good this is just terrible and it's sad that this pulled just a few more than dawn this look like cringe but other people think differently than me so take this my opinion how you will I am just saying you can do better like dawn better art any way
Ps hope this was helpful rAther than rudejust a suggestion to be like the other better ones.
Art is subjective personally i love this art style and besides even without art a story is what matters and this story is beautiful
I do understand that art is subjective to people but the story itself was bad not really my taste I just wanted to say hey you need to fix this also I am just wondering how this has more than dawn chorus the art is just a bunch of buff people/furry's and it dose not make sense at all the story itself is not the good because it like so many others and dose not stand out BUT SOME HOW I DOSE TO OTHERS?!?????
No, you are simply wrong, the story is good and the art is good. See how stupid that sounds? Do you think the creador doesn't put effort in the vn?

ok liisn all this was not soppuse to happen I thought that y'all just be like well that your opinion and I don't care but nope so uh every one let's just forget about all of this thanks
Some folks really don't realize how much work we put into our projects, and it's a bit of a shame, haha.
Thank you too, folks! I appreciate it~
oh and this is why I never say stuff online I did not think this was offences opps sorry every one just your nahierhood crack head here

...
Hiya well opps I was not soppuse to say any of that now that I am realizing it😅 ha ha don't kill me ha ha.......ha..he he...
Wow. Who is this Cal guy and how do I see more of him? Lol XD jkjk
I hope we get a threesome scene someday u.u
Yes, especially one with the MC, Spence & Darius, it would be so good!
Personally, I'd pay millions to see Richard, Dozer and Eric go at it. It would be. . . (Chef's Kiss)
I'd pay to see Darius, Spencer and MC in action!!! They have so much sexual tension.
my friend is dying to try this out is it possible to play on Iphone?
You are kidding! It will never be possible to run this kind of game on iOS. Even if you cut out all the sex scenes, the game will not pass verification in the AppStore.
Btw you can run game on iphone through game streaming services or remote access. For example, you can added this game as third party application in Steam on your PC and play it on iphone through Steam Link. I did that when was too tired to sit at the PC and wanted to lay down with my phone.

are all the dateable characters gonna have a proposal scene and epilogue ?
Yes? Most i think it depends what he has in store for the dateable characters.
But if you finish the end of each route you will see a message that says its not the end they will have an epiligue.
i belive so all but spencer as his epilogue is most likely going to be an actual wedding
hello dyne! thanks for the update! I'm a die hard fan of the spencer route. I would like to ask if there is a chance of his epilogue coming out later this year. thanks!
Omg, a route for every male character would be cool bcuz THEY'RE ALL SO HOOOOT😫😫
I would love one for Azghal.
Me too, he is just 🤌😍
And Bandit or hell Spencer brother damn he was hot in those underwear!
I prefer Spencer's father
Him too, but his brother in those underwear damn!
And now Cal in Dwaynes story! Holy Cow!
Yea😋
I still wana see his dam goofy face when you get his sweet spot😝
sadly most of the undateable guys in the game arent owned by dyne so they wont ever become a route
Who owns Azghal? I want him now lol
yooo same.
Right 😅🫠
Hi DyenWulf
In Dwayne's route for Day 9 where is the Gorilla's pants I mean wow that's something you don't see everyday
I bet Darius is like Woah he's packin
First off, thank you so much for creating this game. This is probably going to sound pathetic and silly, but this game saved me. I have been through so much lately and was ready to end everything.

I actually started playing Richard's route and absolutely love it i was, just really shocked to find out how old it is.
So i hope that in this world rhinos have a longer lifespan than humans, so that the MC and Richard can enjoy a good old age together :c
So how do the patron and Itch.io versions differ from each other?
This is pretty obvious. The itch.io version is one month/two updates behind the Patreon version. And it's only updated once a month. In terms of the main game content, this is the only difference. But at different levels of support opens access to additional materials: guides on the site (for the chosen ending) and to the version of the game with a gallery (like arts from game days or music from the game)
Thanks for the reply.
i swear to god maria is pulling a monica from doki doki literature club, knowing everything that will/has happened. you cannot prove me that she doesn't at least have small access to the code of the game
Bahaha, Maria has all sorts of things up her sleeves...
Hi DyneWulf I loved the Richard route and the new route of the OC marrying Grifter
will there be an Azaghal route?
Is there a throuple route with Darius and Lizard husbando?
There isn't, sorry! x3
Harold doesnt have a line if I have the same Birthday as him? Haha
I... never thought about that!
Not sure if this is the right place to adress this, or if it's just an error on my end, but....
On Day 9 of the Dwayne Route, Dwayne isn't wearing any pants, like for the whole day.
Not sure if that is intentional, considering he's wearing pants in the photo the MC takes of him.
Probably your end because he was ok on mine
I am having the same problem and then I get an error message.
That was a bug that'll be fixed in the next build x3 There are multiple dialog routes, and that one was overlooked with that issue.
Thanks, DyneWulf. Thought l was going crazy for a minute or l was on the wrong route.
I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but how can I play Dwayne's route?
On Day 2, hang with Coach. He'll appear after.
Day 16 Maria : Is it awfully late for you to be coming back. Did your interview go alright?" Should probably be "It is awfully late--"
Also is there somewhere better to post these? sorry if this is a terrible place
Typos don't have to be posted from public builds. There's a document I link through Patreon for folks to post that stuff (so with the new builds, these things are usually fixed).
Second Track gives an exception for some reason. Harold day 15
I may be missing something here, but did you remove the music during the love making scenes on purpose? or is that just a bug?
Sounds like a bug. I haven't removed any music like that.
Okay I realized but it only seems to be a problem on Harold day 27
How much would it cost for body modification to be in the game just curious/Also what is your ruling on mods
check FAQ
Talking about MC customization, I'm guessing it's not about money, it's about time. Dyne makes a game solo (except arts). And customization is not a priority number one right now when not all routes are completed. Maybe after they are done. Imho customization is already impressive. The choices is not wide, but it's fantastic that its changes the arts with MC in the game. Btw if someone wants to make huge donation for this task, i guess Dyne wouldn't be against it and shifle a schedule a little bit for itXD He have email for this (i'm still waiting for your reply, @DyneWulf)
If I had to make a list on my favorite characters from this VN it would be:
#1. Spencer
#2. Harold
#3. Darius
#4. Dozer
#5. Chester
#6. Dwane
Mine would be:
1. Dozer
2. Darius
3. Spencer
4. Chester
5. Coach
I actually haven't started Coach's route, but my moral self told me I shouldn't romance my professor, it's inappropriate! D:
I recommend coach's route!!!!
It's so heartwarming, It may be quite inappropriate but the main character/you is over the age of 21.
He is such a sweetheart!
OML Harold's route is so heartwarming, I loved it SO much! It almost brought me to tears, you did a GREAT job on this VN DyneWulf, i sure do hope you plan on making more!!!!
Hello! Well, I really enjoyed this game, so thank you DyneWolf for this cool vn, and with two more new characters as a bonus, this made this game more interesting, so thank you. But....., I have a slight problem. I already downloaded version 1.151 with the gallery part for the Android version from your Patreon page on my Acer Chromebook laptop , when I tried to go back to the text to explore anymore options so I can unlock everything within the gallery, it won't go backwards. Meaning that no matter how many times I hit the arrow for the text to go backwards, it keeps shuffling me back to the same text all over again, which means I can't go back and explore other options until I have that opportunity again, just like the previous versions where I did that before, and it was no problem, until this version happens. Could you please help me fix my issue? Like I said, it's not a big of a deal. Thank you.
Yes, you still do, but you'll also need to stay update on patreon when the next version for this vn is coming. So thank god this vn it's not worth for nothing.
It's because the Spanish version is incomplete, and my Renpy is having issues compiling the Spanish translations into builds.
Speaking of languages, can you translate the game into Portuguese as well? Please! I would like to play the game without having to translate something all the time, you know?
Why not Conrad have a route? Like, he was ex-military with trusting issues and trauma, he was an Full straight guy bit when he meet Eric he start thinking about It. I have an ideia How his route Begin, when Eric choose "Head home" he listen some noise and decide to investigate, then he found Conrad having an breakdown.
I was thinking about It for a time and i be more Thrilled when i read in Richard route that Conrad was an ex-military.
yoooo, I'm going through Harold's route, and I keep getting the exception error, and usually I just ignore it but then I notice I keep getting it whenever Richard is in the scene. Don't know if that's any help, but its been consistent! But overall, I am loving going through Harold's route, going after Spencer next!
I don't know if it's on purpose or not, but some parts of the spencer route are missing, I don't know if I did something wrong or not but I'm curious. at least in the version i was playing
What do you think is missing? Are you sure you didn't just get an alternate path?
I probably did it without realizing it, I just got confused,thanks<3
I just played through Harold's route
It was just amazing I had to cry it was so beautiful, sweet and incredible ❤️🐻🎾
It was unbelievably great 💗
Kudos to DyneWulf❤️❤️👍
You did a great job!!! 😁👏
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it, and I'm glad you've enjoyed it!
after the game is complete 100% do you think youll be doing another vn, either smaller or greater then what you've achieved here
I definitely want to do more! I'm not 100% on exactly what just yet though
Will it be involving any of these characters or all new. I want more time with Coach ☹️.
Thanks
I know this is late and a stretch but the genre try fantasy or sifi or both you would make hit wit those 😋
I’m on the last week or so of Darius’ route, and I must admit that the way that route is set up gives a great opportunity for an alternative sub-route where Spencer joins MC and Darius in a love triangle.
