Interesting start but if I explore instead of going to bed, I'm locked in the bathroom while the texts changes. Its the same regardless of doing the prologue or not. To make the scenes work, I have to 'explore' and go straight to the living room and then to olivia's room. If I visit other rooms in any other order, olivia is waiting in the living room and the pictures lock.
Great start thought, l like the design and writing so far.
I'm sorry you had to experience this.. But I can't tell you how thankful I am that you went to that extent by taking some of your own personal time to explain thoroughly what is happening on your end. This means a lot to me. I will be able to fix this thanks to your explanation. It will also create a better experience for future players.
By envious do you mean "jalous"? If you wish to get personal with this project and let me give you tips on what I know, my workflow and how I proceed in general I'd be happy to share!
I ran the windows version of 0.1.4. Playing the prologue, it keeps looping me back to the dialogue in need to turn off the lights. I'm stuck in the living room and the story keeps on progressing... Same living room artwork and the visuals don't change.
I will upload a hotfix soon and reply once again to your comment when said issue has been fixed. I'm deeply sorry you had to experience this.. (It's my first project).
As discussed with Patrons sex scenes will be animated but not fully for now. I need to find a middle ground between animating and making progress on the game.
I have this problem on the windows version (I just installed the game btw) it says image `bedroom_day` not found Also, it seems to bug whenever I go to the bathroom upstair after they asked me if I wanted to sleep or take a trip around when I first get home
I just fixed it! I will upload a hotfix tomorrow after fixing a couple more issues that have been brought up. Thank you so much for taking some of your personal time to explain to me that there is an issue and what it is!
From the bottom of my heart, I'm thanking you for all the futur players that won't have to encounter this problem.
How often will there be updates? And by that i mean the story continuing. Also i just have to say please don't ever give up on this, this is incredible bro keep it up.
that's why I believe You Have Actual Love pouring into it That's Why you are cooler than the Lazier creators that dont wanna do that I Hope this Project stays on the right Path. Have a Great week.
hey, i just downloaded the game and i LOVE the ui, aesthetically it's pretty polished, i have high expectations, what ia you used to generate the characters and animations? any advice on that?
Base Concepts are generated with ControlNet but then I have to redraw everything. Also you can't use AI to animate in detail or keep a high quality such as what's in the game. AI is cool but has it's limitations. I can give you tips and tricks I guess but the keywords are patience, practice and discipline when it comes to this. Thank you for the kind words and questions!
It will be soon for free as we are already half month. I'd say exceptionaly Wednesday of next week. After that Patreon gets an update every beginning of every months and for free around the middle.
An extremely attractive artistic style and color palette, such efforts should not be wasted, but rather encouraged, consider yourself a new “connoisseur” on Patreon.
I adore the art of this game. And so far, its super cute. Cannot wait for more. I promise that if you keep working on it, that as soon as I get financially stable, I'll become a backer. Keep up the great work! ^_^
PS: The version number makes it seem like its much more done than it is. Something like 0.02 would be more accurate. Just a suggestion! Either way, keep it coming! <3
I can ask you if you came up with the idea of the game yourself or took it from another game, if you took it from which game? I will play while you do the update.😀
I'm more focused on story as of right now and want the sex scenes to be earned so I don't know right now but you'll find extra content on the games discord!
I'm new.. I'm sorry I know I'm bad atm but I'm improving everyday! Oh and, don't worry there are heaps of updates planned for this game! You should check the discord ^^
Hello ! I've played the first version a week ago, haven't tried the new one :) I was curious about the characters, like how do you create them ? (which app or thing ?)
Stable Diffusion for concepts and then I have to redraw them to be able to animate them as you can't animate flat 2D images (I mean, u could but it wouldn't look that great honestly..).
You're probably right. I'm just delving into the Ren'py and game making universe in general. I'm trying something new and want to share the progress I make as I go. I understand your point of view and is very contructive for me to build a better aproach to this. Thank you
Thank you so much! This warms my heart a lot! Not this friday but the next one I will be releasing a big update for this game. I can't wait to have you feedbacks on it! ^^
Hello! Keep up the good work. The game looks great! I am also a Ren'Py game maker. Great to see how you used Live2D animation in game, although it seems like it would be a trouble to make android version with it. Could you tell what stable diffusion checkpoint did you use?
Hey thank you so much! I wandered on your page and saw really cool concepts! I don't like people gatekeeping knowledge so here, I'll give you all you need for "basic" character generation. I use AI for concepts and then redraw everything piece by piece so I'm able to animate them.
Wow, thanks for the detailed response. I love that opennes too. As you I also work on a new project with Live 2D animation. I saw in your code that you use Live2D files directly in the game which is good as you keep high quality
If you don't mind, I'd like to know what sources do you use to learn Lived2D as I didn't find complete courses for beginners on youtube. Here is an example of my work:
Cool! I like your responsiveness. if you don't mind I'd like to create a Discord channel where we could share the things we learn about Ren'py and everything in this sphere. I mean, I've been working on adult renpy games for 4 month and I saw that it is a pretty small community of creators. So, it might be a good idea to group up to develop our skill faster. It's ok if you don't want to.
Hey! This one looks promising. The sprites are amazing, very nice quality, and the girls are all gorgeous. The writing could be better and the story needs a bit more polishing, but generally speaking, it has good potential. Oh! And UI is nice as well.
This warms my heart so much! I'm reworking Olivia to make her more "MILFy" right now. I'm wanting to take this project really far.. You can count on me!
The UI was made by Skolaztika. You should check him out!
I just registered on itchi to comment on your text. I really love your art style and the game so far. This could become a really great game. Still i believe Olivia looks great and I just wanted to say, I hope you dont change her up to much. I think she looks great and so does the rest of cast!
Good luck on learning Ren'py. I use Ren'py as well. It took me like 5 minutes to learn it. However, I haven't learned all the hard part yet like making world maps for doing a sandbox game.
The basics were easy to learn, it’s a very practical and flexible engine! I’ve spent most of my time learning how to make and add animations using Live2D for things such as NSFW scenes or "jiggle physics". I’ve also got the basics to make a player inventory work. Is your project here on itch.io? I’m curious to see what your sandbox game is about ^^

love the game amazing start
Thank you angel! More coming soon!!!

Once again, thank you so much!
I had that same problem as well.
I've had a lot of feedback of players experiencing issues with the game.. I'm sorry I'm trying my hardest to make something decent for you all.
With the help of all said feedback I'm allowed to improve and learn a lot.
I hope you'll come across less bugs in later versions, I'll try.
I really like what you're doing and am very envious that you're just diving in. I'll happily bug hunt for you if that helps you keep momentum.
By envious do you mean "jalous"? If you wish to get personal with this project and let me give you tips on what I know, my workflow and how I proceed in general I'd be happy to share!
Nothing is more valuable to me than to help!
I ran the windows version of 0.1.4. Playing the prologue, it keeps looping me back to the dialogue in need to turn off the lights. I'm stuck in the living room and the story keeps on progressing... Same living room artwork and the visuals don't change.
I will upload a hotfix soon and reply once again to your comment when said issue has been fixed. I'm deeply sorry you had to experience this.. (It's my first project).
Have you tried not running the prologue for now?
Willl i can't wait anymore 😁 btw do u have any idea to made animation when s*x? it's more be batter i think
As discussed with Patrons sex scenes will be animated but not fully for now. I need to find a middle ground between animating and making progress on the game.
Take care!
I'll be waiting brother btw u use discord ?
I want to be friend with may i?
Sure thing, just join the game's Discord server and you'll see me on there. You can send me a friend request from there.
See you soon!
Nice art
tysm! <3
I have this problem on the windows version (I just installed the game btw) it says image `bedroom_day` not found
Also, it seems to bug whenever I go to the bathroom upstair after they asked me if I wanted to sleep or take a trip around when I first get home

Spanish?
Not yet..
How often will there be updates? And by that i mean the story continuing. Also i just have to say please don't ever give up on this, this is incredible bro keep it up.
There is at least one a month! I wish I could output more but I'm still learning and I'm alone ehe. I won't give up you can count on me!!!
Once a month is great for being a new solo developer. The art is fantastic, and so is the story. Keep it up! No need to rush it.
Thank you so much for understanding and also motivating me! It truly means so much to me, thank you
will look into this out of curiosity and hope AI isn't used too much like one I found that made me avoid stuff like this
thoughts after trying it?
which program and you using to create these amazing images
ControlNet, Photoshop (drawing).
Thought it was kind of entertaining Compared to most of those Ai Folks that was lazier
I can't tell you I don't really have time to try other games.. Thank you for the kind words, I'm pouring all my heart into this project.
that's why I believe You Have Actual Love pouring into it That's Why you are cooler than the Lazier creators that dont wanna do that I Hope this Project stays on the right Path. Have a Great week.
I hope I'll be up to your expectations! See you for next update I guess ^^
is it meant to say "return" at the end?
Definetly not.. Thank you for reporting this! It will be fixed for next update.. I'm still learning Ren'Py, sorry for the inconvenience..
Show post...
Spanish?
Translations will be a thing I don't know when.. Still learning a lot of things! I'll do my research.

Vale gracias por tenerlo en cuenta :)

I can no longer install the game. I tried updating it and it didn't so i uninstalled and now when i try to re install itch doesnt find the game.
I will update the game files today then just to be sure. Thank you so much for noticing me.
Could I know what OS you are on? (Linux, Mac, Windows, Android).
Im on windows and it seemed to have worked from the web version but not the app.
Thank you for specifying web. I know what isn't working now. I will fix it so it should launch normally from the app. I'll post a devlog about it.
Will characters moan during porn scenes and will they be loud?
Yeah they will! But about volume specifications it will depend on the scenes.
When is the update?
It will be soon for free as we are already half month. I'd say exceptionaly Wednesday of next week. After that Patreon gets an update every beginning of every months and for free around the middle.
Hey, i really liked the game so far, loved the artstyle! Are you still working on this game?
Yeah I am but with work and personal likfe it has been a been hectic lately!
An extremely attractive artistic style and color palette, such efforts should not be wasted, but rather encouraged, consider yourself a new “connoisseur” on Patreon.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm trying my hardest to net let all of you down
I adore the art of this game. And so far, its super cute. Cannot wait for more. I promise that if you keep working on it, that as soon as I get financially stable, I'll become a backer. Keep up the great work! ^_^

Now that you say it it's true I should've went with that... I'm new to all this sorry
Thank you so much that goes straight to my heart!
When is the next update approximately?
no definite ETA as a lot is going on in my personal life right now but I'd say a month from now
And will there be in the future what happened to the characters after a few years and will we meet them?
why not in another "Amidst Hearts" game yes
I can ask you if you came up with the idea of the game yourself or took it from another game, if you took it from which game? I will play while you do the update.😀
damn Olivia, can't wait to play this , the art is great
And where was Mia when we went to her room?
You will discover that in a new update eheh
Will you have any characters for the holiday, such as New Year, Halloween and scenes with them as an idea?
That is planned bit will it be do-able in time? I'm only 1 person working on it and a new dev also so...
Good luck finding you employees
If only I could have "employees"...
Will there be hentai scenes with Mia in the next update?
I'm more focused on story as of right now and want the sex scenes to be earned so I don't know right now but you'll find extra content on the games discord!
When is the next update approximately?
No clue as I want to take my time and make it right.. Maybe a month from sounds good.
Will there be a translation into Russian?
Translations are indeed planned but not as of right now. You can expect: Russian, Spanish, German and French.
Good luck to update and translation
Best profile pic! And thank you^^
it was going fairly well, then ended super abruptly. got a lil sad ngl. hope to see more updates in the future, this has some crazy potential.
I'm new.. I'm sorry I know I'm bad atm but I'm improving everyday! Oh and, don't worry there are heaps of updates planned for this game! You should check the discord ^^
Hello !
I've played the first version a week ago, haven't tried the new one :)
I was curious about the characters, like how do you create them ? (which app or thing ?)
Have a great day !
Stable Diffusion for concepts and then I have to redraw them to be able to animate them as you can't animate flat 2D images (I mean, u could but it wouldn't look that great honestly..).
I feel like before you post a game there should be more then 5 minutes of gameplay (not trying to be rude just didn't expect this little content)
You're probably right. I'm just delving into the Ren'py and game making universe in general. I'm trying something new and want to share the progress I make as I go. I understand your point of view and is very contructive for me to build a better aproach to this. Thank you
Take your time mate there is no rush :)
Thank you! I will from now on. Last update (1.2a) was made just to change the endscreen. Take care!
Animated scenes?
YES! I will post an NSFW spoiler on the games discord! A quick sneapeek of next update.
I'll join then
I seee future here man this can be a good game
Thank you! I'll try my best!
Looking forward to this, the characters look amazing
Thank you! Nex tupdate will make the game more official (it will be a big one)!
I love this so much the characters are so hot and cute! Iv been here when it was released i created this account just to comment on this :3
Thank you so much! This warms my heart a lot! Not this friday but the next one I will be releasing a big update for this game. I can't wait to have you feedbacks on it! ^^
wow! if you don't mind me asking what model are you using for Stable Diffusion?
Look at the comment just below you'll find everything you need! :D

Hello! Keep up the good work. The game looks great! I am also a Ren'Py game maker. Great to see how you used Live2D animation in game, although it seems like it would be a trouble to make android version with it. Could you tell what stable diffusion checkpoint did you use?
Hey thank you so much! I wandered on your page and saw really cool concepts! I don't like people gatekeeping knowledge so here, I'll give you all you need for "basic" character generation. I use AI for concepts and then redraw everything piece by piece so I'm able to animate them.
Here's the workflow:
CKPT: catCitronAnime_v10 / VAE: Grapefruit
sampler: DPM++ 2M Karras / sampling steps: 30
res : 512x768
HiRes.Fix:
Upscaler : 4x-UltraSharp / Hires steps : 15 / Denoising strength : 0.35 / Upscale by: 1.5
[If you want to make characters older you'll have to redraw their faces manually btw. ]
I got better at Live2d! Next update will feature eye, mouth and hair animations! If you want to I can give you tips.
Hope this helps!

Here is the video that made me learn Live2D:

Cool! I like your responsiveness. if you don't mind I'd like to create a Discord channel where we could share the things we learn about Ren'py and everything in this sphere.

I would love that so much! I have a pretty extensive Discord server if you'd like to join? I could create channels for us!
Where did you get this model? I can't seem to find it on civitai. I use ComfyUI by the way. hehe.
Have you tried https://huggingface.co?

Hello,
just finished it and it looks very promising, there is talent and i hope u will exploit it well ! Good luck :)
I’m really dedicated! I will do my best, your kind words really motivate me to give it my all ^^
it seems really good !
Thank you so much! I didn't think this would get this "much" traction! I'll upload a devlog on here starting today ^^
