It's simple, we wanna know how hard or how easy is to play our game dear patrons. This will help us in the game development. 

If you want to be more precise, leave a comment.

Edit: Don't worry if we don't reply the comments,  we are taking notes of them all and solutions are being created for sure.

Thanks ;)

I'm not sure if I get stuck or I get bored. 1% every time I train feels like such a lackluster grindfest. So basically I train/babysit every day for 10 minutes, get bored, and then go jerk off to porn instead.

I wouldn't call it a particularly difficult game, however there are a few annoying bits. "Would you like to move to the next area?" Yes! Yes, I would, game...THAT'S WHY I CLICKED ON THE @#^@#$&^@#$ING BUTTON TO MOVE TO THE NEXT AREA!

I think it feels grindy because there's not a lot of content yet. I'd add that it also feel pointless to play further since I have invested in Chris but nothing changes yet. If I could see results from the training it would feel like it has a point.

Have a tip menu that covers all the tips you have currently uncovered. If that particular tip doesn't yet lead to anything make a note of it in the tip menu. Instead of penny just screaming at you whenever you talk to her maybe she should give a hint to what you are supposed to do, or what you haven't yet done. I don't mind grind, I don't mind random events but there should be some indicator to these things. I shouldn't have to guess that I'm able to do something now, the game should tell me. I shouldn't have to spam an option hoping that something will change I should be given an idea of what I am doing wrong. Your framework is great but it seems like the core mechanics of the games aren't clearly explained to you, You give us a good understanding of the characters motivations but give nothing on how to satisfy those motivations.

I think the game is fun, getting the new jobs are fun. I think obviously the beginning feels like a grind as does any game. I would however like to see changes to Chris, when you use the cream for bigger breasts, or fatter bottom. I think the days go by pretty fast so I have never made the $30,000 deadline. I love the new content, but I haven't found a place to buy presents for everyone. Also, as of right now, maybe I'm just OCD, but I try to get everyone to like me, and getting the dance teacher makes Chris hate you. Buy her a drink at the strip club makes her like you again but not to 5. So the last 2 sex scenes I haven't been able to find them, maybe not looking hard enough? Idk. Overall, I can't wait for the finished game!

It's also hard to do much in a reasonable amount of time do to how little money you can currently make.

Overall it's semi clear. Some things are annoying, as some character interaction options only do something after several other triggers, like buying a drink for the barmaid after you've done some dance training. It's not bad that there is this progression, but I think the better option would be to start showing that interaction option when you are far enough in the story. Otherwise it becomes very confusing, you can interact with everyone in many ways, yet the many ways are quite useless at many points in the game. This makes a bit of a clusterfuck. Also, a guide on some stats etc would be nice. For example, the bubble butt lotion; does it do anything? What bodytypes exist? And can they be achieved with training and the formula? I've trained stamina all the way up to level 5, thinking it would do something with the body type, but yeah nah. This makes the whole grind tedious because you don't know what you are grinding for! Overall pretty good, but there is definitely room for improvement!

I haven't finished the game, and only have played it for two days or so. But here's my initial impressions: The game feels grindy (repeat same action ad nauseaum), hurried (the 90 days limit feels short considering the pace of progress), and there is a lack of transparency in what you're trying to achieve. There is also things it doesn't explain. What is that beginning questionnaire? Is that for James, or for Chris? What does it even DO? The answers would be basically inverse depending on whose perspective I'd answer them. And finally, in my head canon Chris/James is a pairing, for some reason. I mean, it's not like the game presents itself as a Dating Sim, VN or anything with a deep storyline. But somehow I feel like there should be a romance of sorts between those two... I think somehow the dialogue made me feel like that is something that should happen. As a side note: are Chris's affinity checks working right? It feels weird to get "Chris¨´ +0" when I try to work up a relationship with her... What does that popup even mean... I mean +0, c¨¨'mon? As for GUI, it's mostly good, but the while the sliding menus look nice, they are seriously annoying when you're doing boring repetitive tasks again and again. I mean, they don't slow you down much but it feels like eternity when all you want to do is to go from Lab to Gym to Office and then home.

Okay. I've had the time to "finish" the game (full 90 days). With 33k money (although I had that at day 70'ish, I just got bored of grinding money and instead just rested until day 92 to see if anything happens at the time limit. Answer: absolutely nothing). So, final thoughts. It's potentially a very good game. Right not it's not quite there yet. The interface is slick, but gets in the way of the game. This is only because the game is very grindy and you do the same actions over and over. That means that when you move to STP hall, you sometimes have to click in excess of 20 (not kidding, depending on time of day, etc) times to get just to the lab/gym/lib and then switching between them is about 4-6 clicks depending on things. Consider that these are something you need to do almost every day and it gets amazingly annoying to see those menus slide out. Either optionally disable the sliding, or reduce the amount of clicks you need to do for repetitive tasks. Second, whenever you get the baby sitting job, it shows the house flickering on the map. You do NOT need to see that every time. The first time, it's good, but the fifth time you're wondering why you're still seeing it, and by the fifteenth time you're desperately clicking and hoping it goes away already. Third, the sex scene at the baby sitting: it needs to be conveyed more clearly it has permanent results (hp down 30 permanently). Or alternatively there's a bug and the lotion doesn't work. Fourth, the night scene between Nady and Chris is unavoidable. If you choose not to watch it (for the fifth time, and you'd rather Chris have the energy than see the scene) it will just trigger again if you try to rest. So you actually HAVE to watch it... if that's the case, why the goddamn choice? Fifth, if you don't have sex with Raya (the dance teacher, right?) at the Lotus, you'll get the new teacher at the STP just fine, but you can encounter her again at the Lotus and then have sex with her. If you do that, then the whole "new dance teacher" thing happens again at the STP... But you already had her! Sixth, it was incredibly disappointing that James didn't (at least I didn't find how) get on with Chris. I'd rather see that, than the whatever hisfacewas at the baby sitting job. I mean, yes, I understand that this is sort of 75% from the perspective of Chris, but as I identify with James a lot more than with Chris, I'd sort of like to see things happening between those two. There's a potential here for a sort of lighthearted comedy romance thing along with the raunchy sissy training. And finally, the starting questionnaire is so opaque as to be nearly impossible to understand. I suppose it changes Chris' stats and f/m ratio? If that's true, it's so hard to actually figure out what options to pick to make the choices you'd want for her. Futhermore, does it actually even matter in the game?

Yes, I'd like some clarification around the quiz at the very beginning of the game. What is its purpose?

I to am unable to unlock the new content. i have resorted to save hopping and repeated refreshes of areas to try to trigger RND events. manage to get beat up by skinheads a few times doing this but nothing more. given you seem to have to be at the right place at the right time AND stats And Random. it feels like a little much. maybe there is some sort of subtle suggesting buried in the dialog some place but with all the repetition, i find myself skipping threw most of it in favor of the speed needed to refresh attempts over and over and over... and over again. Also, they hint at possibly feminizing the James. This is what i am looking for. as James is the character that represents the player. It is ultimately the direction i wish to go in with my adventure in this game. Forced or blackmailed would be cool. Maybe as punishment of failure to pay off the debt. Or maybe threw hypnotic manipulation. Or Even maybe even threw deception. Lab products slipped into every day life routines. Chrises journey is great! But i really was hoping for main character not supporting. the Hints are honestly the only reason i keep playing. Is this part of the plan for the future by chance? If not, mark one as wishing for it please :)

Oh, and one thing I keep forgetting to mention. You should possibly remove those "this building will be here when the game is fully funded" messages. Mostly because they give the impression that the room/building ISN'T already in the game when playing the full version. That's just misleading and can give the wrong impression for people who are playing. That said, I'm strongly against sissy James. I was happy to find this game since the main character wasn't the one being feminized. There's bazillion games for those who are into M2F transformation, but only slave simulator games where the main character controls/changes someone else. This felt like a very fresh (and funny/lighthearted) take on the whole thing against the darker backdrop of the scene.
