Don't be silly, @dynewulf. No one can be disappointed by the lack of updates in January. Everyone is aware of the terrible events that you had to go through. And thank you for continuing to update the version for itch.io. Take a rest and let only memories remain of everything that happened to you .
And for the curious, updates for itch.io will be probably look something like this: February 16th - Richard Day 20 March 16th - Dwayne Day 15 + Richard Day 21 April 16th - No Update May 16th - Chester Epilogue
covid and blood clot I'm so sorry to hear that my mom had the same thing and my family almost lost her I hope he gets better soon you have my full support.
I was always waiting on Richard route since I played the first time and after playing a little bit on Dwayne route I felt that it would be my least favorite since Im one hundred percent bottom and he seemed to be too lol, but now that things have developted a little bit more, things have switched it up for me cuz Richard seems a little too into his ex and wanting to fuck my friends while Dwayne wants to see other people having sex with me, and that's something I was for sure not expecting, now I can't wait to finish Dwayne route lol, love this game and the characters, Dozer still is my favorite <3 hope you continue working on games after you are finished with this project <3
Does anyone else find Bam a little off-putting? Him always trying to grope Spencer is a bit uncomfortable ngl... Especially after he and MC make things official.
Edit: Also, do Bam and Darius ever meet? I kind of want to see them interact with each other.
And speaking of Spencer getting groped, is there any dialogue option to prevent that from happening? I'm not too keen on watching my (probably) favorite love interest in the game get grabbed by creepy, horny strangers lol. I'd rather have MC do that. I ain't into sharing.
If you're still struggling, I left a comment a month ago explaining how I did it. I had to plug my phone into a computer to move the save files because Android's newer versions have locked the folder where the save files are stored!
so guys the last time i played this game was before richard route got added (i think?)... i know atleast all the basic routes were done...and now im coming back to finally try dwayne and richard routes. pretty confused about how kitchen works..do i have to replay everything to unlock the content thats suppose to be there?
Yes, you do. When you were playing, there were no variables in the game that opened access to the Kitchen content. Now they are there and they need to be triggered. But there is a high probability that you will not be able to do this using your old save files. With the implementation of two new routes and massive changes in the beginning of the game (day 3), the old saves have been broken and may not load or will work incorrectly. You should replay the old routes again.
I have been really enjoying this vn so far I have noticed something, during my playthrough of dozars route, two images arn't loading, garden2 and resturant_garden, and is just a black screen with the characters in front of it. I thought to mention it here, but so far I really love the vn and will be looking forward to what alse you will do.
You used to get a message about nobody liking you, and the game would start over, bahaha. It's not like that anymore, and you end up on a route no matter what happens.
spencer and the Canon events gave me a rather bland taste since choices just gives different dialog even the event with the 'stabby woman' you're still going to get her to jail even if you slammed your fist on the screen wanting to see what other possibilities happen
I really love the care put in the stories. My personal favorite is Chester, I feel like I definitely would get along so well with him, plus he's pretty complex so that's a bonus.
Although MC keeps ruining the mood with his over horniness, I don't really let that stop me from really enjoying the story.
If all characters are as deep as Chester, though, then this game really is amazing and I praise the work put into it!
Whew, yeah updating on android was an interesting process. As of android 11 (and even more so in 13) file browsing software can't read/write files in the android/data folder, which is where the saves are located. Luckily I got around this by turning on USB debugging and plugging the phone into a computer, then using the computer's file browser to move stuff around.
Interestingly (or possibly intentionally) the new version installed as a completely new app for me (the old one was "EA" the new one is "ExcA") which kept my save files in place making this process a little easier.
Found the old saves in Android/Data/android.build and moved them to their new home in Android/Data/extracurricular.activities.
When I launched the new version of the game my saves were there, but unlockables (extras, the alternate title screen, etc.) were not there. It looks like loading my old saves unlocks them, which is easy enough to do The only thing that doesn't seem to have transferred over is what dialogue I have "read" before, so I can't skip though seen dialogue.
The music library is not available for the public. I don't want to be toxic, but your problem has a lot of solutions. I will not give you specific recommendations, try to come to it by yourself ;)
PS. btw i was in the same spot a year ago when i wanted to add end credits music to my library on the phone to listen to it when i am in a sad mood. That one and the attempt to get a night view on CrestHaven from Coach route in good resolution to place it like wallpaper on my pc. It's funny what in the end it led me to.
I have commented on this before but felt the need to show the love again. These past several years have been so bad for me. I have been super low so many times. When I was at my lowest and had a literal plan on ending it, I stumbled onto this Novel. I just so happened to do Coaches route first. I don't think I've ever read or experienced anything like how his story made me feel. He literally saved my life, or you saved my life. I have been low many times since then and everytime I get down I always know where to find coach. I know most people will only see these novels as a cute story or as a sexual fantasy, but this is so real for me. I just want to thank the creator for writing it and involuntary saving someone who was on the literal edge. I guess if I had a question, I would be.....is this really the end of Coach Grifters story, or is there any chance of more?
The answer used to be no, I suppose. I think Dyne planned to add 35 days for each route and an epilogue. But now in Twitter and Telegram we see the announcement of a special episode with Spencer and Azaghal. In my opinion, the chance of extra days/special episodes/alternative stories was 0.01% and now its 99.99%. But I suppose it can be an extra extra content and will be only available for the patreon supporters. Like you, I also want more content with Papa Bear. It will always be not enough of him for me.
Hey, thank you so much for taking the time out to leave this comment for me to read. It really makes me glad to know that the project has helped you so much like that, and it just adds so much more fulfillment to what I do.
As it stands right now, Harold's route is done. There is more content to come that involves him, but his overall story is finished.
Some characters have problems with this scene. I don't remember which ones exactly, but Harold is definitely not one of them. His item appears on the table correctly when you are completing his route with the best ending. I assume you did not finish his route on the best ending, and just got a neutral/good ending.
Can someone explain to me what does the hotspot indicator do in the game? I tried finishing a route without it and another route with it, nothing happened or changed
This option is available for some scenes after the implementation of this feature. It show where you can click in interactive scenes. This feature has not yet been implemented for all old scenes.
Since you have already read this vn, then you are definitely not talking about Darius. Most likely you are talking about demon looking cameo character Archibald from another game See no Evil by CaptainGerBear. And like the rest cameo characters, they are not dateable.
I'm in love with this visual novel. I have been playing since summer of 2020 and never missed an update. I especially love that the characters don't remain miserable and alone if you pick another route, but find happiness regardless. To me this says that they don't need you to be happy, that there is someone for everyone. But given the chance, they will choose you. Not out of necessity, but because they actually like you.
Absolutely my favorite VN! I've replayed Darius' route 3 times now, just to re-read everything. Spencer and Coach have gotten the same treatment. I love the story, the tension, the romance... Everything is well-paced and well-written. The characters are believable and have clear motivations for what they do. I just had to leave a comment for this one; I'm aspiring to write a VN myself and I hope I'm even half as good as this.

covid and blood clot I'm so sorry to hear that my mom had the same thing and my family almost lost her I hope he gets better soon you have my full support.
Please tell me what to do if the game crashes after creating a character? (I have an android version)
(Spoiler)
I was always waiting on Richard route since I played the first time and after playing a little bit on Dwayne route I felt that it would be my least favorite since Im one hundred percent bottom and he seemed to be too lol, but now that things have developted a little bit more, things have switched it up for me cuz Richard seems a little too into his ex and wanting to fuck my friends while Dwayne wants to see other people having sex with me, and that's something I was for sure not expecting, now I can't wait to finish Dwayne route lol, love this game and the characters, Dozer still is my favorite <3 hope you continue working on games after you are finished with this project <3
They definitely made Richard nothing more than a horny washed-up divorcee.
Does anyone else find Bam a little off-putting? Him always trying to grope Spencer is a bit uncomfortable ngl... Especially after he and MC make things official.

How do you transfer files on mobile..? I don't understand, and I really don't want to lose all my save progress ._.
If you're still struggling, I left a comment a month ago explaining how I did it. I had to plug my phone into a computer to move the save files because Android's newer versions have locked the folder where the save files are stored!
yeah Android's newer versions are a bitch about that, never thought id be glad to have a potato phone
so guys the last time i played this game was before richard route got added (i think?)... i know atleast all the basic routes were done...and now im coming back to finally try dwayne and richard routes. pretty confused about how kitchen works..do i have to replay everything to unlock the content thats suppose to be there?

if all else fails: just skip choices until you end a route
There is truth in it that the writer brings some of his own into some of the characters?happy holidays
I have been really enjoying this vn so far I have noticed something, during my playthrough of dozars route, two images arn't loading, garden2 and resturant_garden, and is just a black screen with the characters in front of it. I thought to mention it here, but so far I really love the vn and will be looking forward to what alse you will do.
Quick question is there a choice to reject all of the following characters or is it a Canon event?
You used to get a message about nobody liking you, and the game would start over, bahaha. It's not like that anymore, and you end up on a route no matter what happens.
spencer and the Canon events gave me a rather bland taste since choices just gives different dialog even the event with the 'stabby woman' you're still going to get her to jail even if you slammed your fist on the screen wanting to see what other possibilities happen
Question ⁉️ Is that Novel for coach complete or still pending coz I got really addicted to the story and want to complete it.
Imho, the Coach's route need some polishing, but it is completed. All 35 days, 3 endings and an epilogue are present in the game.
i think they meant Harolds book "The Stone" (iirc atleast...) which im also really curious to read in its entirety if its completed lol
I really love the care put in the stories. My personal favorite is Chester, I feel like I definitely would get along so well with him, plus he's pretty complex so that's a bonus.

"If all characters are as deep as Chester". Dude, you can't even IMAGINE how true you are. You will be mindblown.
I WAS SO NOT READY FOR ZEE BAGUETTE CG!!! 🤣
Zee sir made me drop my croissant!

Hope this helps anyone else on Android too!
Does anyone know how to transfer the save file into the new update ?
android build keeps crushing
look at this funny spelling error on richards route
can someone tell me how to download the musics of the game, i need to know how to do it to have them as a ringtone
The music library is not available for the public. I don't want to be toxic, but your problem has a lot of solutions. I will not give you specific recommendations, try to come to it by yourself ;)

why won't it show anything for harold after you finish his route on extra

Who is the attractive lion looking character in the character sprite pic??? Is he datable????
This whole vn is just gorgeous. I love it!!!❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨
Since you have already read this vn, then you are definitely not talking about Darius. Most likely you are talking about demon looking cameo character Archibald from another game See no Evil by CaptainGerBear. And like the rest cameo characters, they are not dateable.
Aaw but he looks cool!!💔💔
Oh well!! Thanks for letting me know!!
I'll have to check out See No Evil! Looks interesting enough
I liked the Easter egg: 1-800-273-8255! ) This is great! Thank you for your work. Looking forward to the continuation😉🐻
I love this game so much. But also kinda salty that Spencer get to pull the Azaghal's route and i can't.
How do I pull the Azaghal route?
you can't.
which guy does the most with musk?
propably dozer - the alligator one, but chester allows you to borrow his underwear
Chester 100%, Dozer is musky but Chester wore the same dirty underwear for days just for me
Chester is adorable. I was so sad when his route finished. I still am! 😭
I hate his bloody route to replay the most because it has the same effect of knowing when yer gonna die. Like I cannot know when life will end
same

Gosh, Richard is just so.... perfect! ☺️ his accent, his dad-bod, his domineering nature, his caring side [squeals in fanboy] 😍
Absolutely my favorite VN! I've replayed Darius' route 3 times now, just to re-read everything. Spencer and Coach have gotten the same treatment. I love the story, the tension, the romance...

How do I get the Dwayne route started? I tried to do everything, but I get locked into someone else's route.
You should hang with the coach on day 2 You will meet Dwayne eventually
ooh okay. thank you
It is the 16th for me, so... Happy 42nd birthday, Papa Bear! ʕ •ᴥ• ʔ We will love you to end of time, and we hope you never forget that.
GOD I love this game. All the characters are LEGENDARY But I feel a specific type of bond with Darius that I can't shake.
I'm in love with harvey
Daym it was love at first sight now I don't care about dozer i just want harvey
Harvey was so handsome and yet dozer let him go
Dozer was at fault here too because the love he showed for harvey was not enough
