Ok, i'm stuck guys! How do I get past the A Beautiful Motive quest? Once I did it, the only quest avaiable is the Detroning queen one and I've already know what happens in that one... I want to progress in Lindey storyline but the game simply won't let me... If someone could help pls... Thanks a lot
dont worry mate... as you progress in act 2 or season 2 or whatever, she recovers from her coma and you will visit her day by day... and then out of quest and waits for another update... *sigh*😩
I would love to play this game but there are too many quests you can get stuck in a loop on and the quest guides are no good at getting you out of the loops. especially in venting frustration
they have the in game quest help but i feel that holds your hand too much, the wiki also has a lot more details so if youre ever stuck consider checking that out.
how do i gain access to playing something playful and spontaneous on the piano? i think im on season 1 still new to the game, any help will be appreciated!
This game has quite interesting lore, actually. It seems mainly based around an entity that I shall designate herein as the Oculus (as it seems omnipresent, or at the very least can tell what is going on). The Oculus is a seemingly godlike entity, able to make timeline changes, other universes, or simulations (depending on which realm we reside in). I believe that it is another universe or a backtracked timeline due to the number of things within it that serve no apparent purpose, and the events of Mrs. L. (see below).
I'm uncertain why the Oculus has edited our reality. Whether for pleasure, energy, or ritual purposes seems the most likely. Of these, pleasure is the least likely. The fact that this universe has events that cause pain to the protagonist (the saucer-eyed doll, the stolen locker. Oculus, Latin for eye.) seems to be against the goal, especially because, with our limited meetings of it, it seems of sound mind and body. Though, if the entity has such power as to reverse a timeline or make a new one, it's quite likely they have predictions of it being resolved. So pleasure is still not all that unlikely. Then is energy, perhaps sexual or romantic energy between entities within the realm, which may feed the Oculus somewhat. Then finally, ritual: self-explanatory. Your actions, in some way, are letting some ancient god or beast out, which shall benefit the Oculus.
Of the people who seem aware of the Oculus's presence, there are three (as I believe; add more below if you know of any). Mrs. L, Maxine (somewhat), and Cyberia (possibly). Mrs. L is obvious. she has developed an attraction to the Protag and is wearing provocative clothing, ruining his other romantic chances as such, to the Oculus's displeasure. Then, Maxine. I think she has some awareness, though whether she is aware of its causation and not just its effects is possible, but with her personality, unlikely. Then Cyberia. Of all of them, this is the most tenuous. But I do feel, as an AI absorbing all the knowledge it can, she must know some knowledge. And if not now, her rising importance in the story may mean that she will find out sooner rather than later.
In conclusion, of the facts we know, distilled: the entity Oculus, with its unimaginable power, has edited, changed, or made reality for esoteric goals, adding people (or possibly just editing their fate. Jacklyn may have existed in the original reality, but she never crossed paths with the protagonist) and changed existing ones. For example, Flora: I doubt she naturally feels attraction to her sibling—possible, but with the descriptors of her in the original reality, I think she was more disappointed. Not many know of their meddling, of which three (as I believe) seem somewhat aware on a spectrum. (Though, if any of you know anything more, add it below!)
It is likely of the Oculus (though not truly confirmed) because it follows the same personality and the fact that they know of what is going on. Plus as a video game, making another character for the one scene doesn't make much sense. While in the messages they speak of pitying your life, or lack of, and wanting to grant you another start, I am not certain if that is their actual reasoning. Because they could merely lie, and that doesn't explain why they chose us. Did they know of the MC's pathetic life, if so, how? An entity with that level of power isn't going to spend it on this, and if they did, they wouldn't spend time ensuring it goes well.
Don't think I invented this theory, more a mix of the few things I've seen people talk about, but personally I believe that Mrs. L is a succubus(based on the list of fetishes on this page and a couple random Reddit posts) and the person she talks to in certain scenes is an angel or something, someone who opposes Mrs. L's goals(which I'll explain in a sec). As for who that is, I believe it's the Janitor, someone I actually missed seeing in my playthrough lol but I know exists from the outdated wiki and a couple comments here.
I think that "the Oculus" is overseeing a kind of bet that the succubus and the angel (taking the roles of Mrs. L and the Janitor, people who were quite different in the original version of the MC's life) made. Maybe whether the MC can turn his life around and get some action, become a better person in spite of his life and all the crazy changes going on(eg. with Lindsey).
I do wonder, who and how was this world created and why does it differ so much from the "original version", especially with stuff like Isabelle's existence, Jacklyn's role in the, Flora's attraction, and Lindsey's [SPOILER]. I don't know why the bet was made either, or why the Oculus oversees it and the extent of their impartiality---if they were the one who made it, then why is the world seemingly in favor of the succubus/Mrs. L?
Wish more people knew about this game and that I could talk about it to people without being outed as a gooner, I really enjoy the story :P
Still would appreciate some sort of list for quests to see what u completed per save, like maybe add one in the phone menu? Kind of sucks if i have to wanna start new game, i'd wanna tick every quest i finish on paper, too late now ig. Regardless the game still good
its normal that im trapped in the out on the waves mission? it says i have to talk wih flora but flora is nowhere to be seen. i dont know what to do. thanks
Hello, just here to ask the author: have you noticed that Pokemon's Perrin is basically a rip off of your character Jacklyn?
I don't know when Jacklyn was made, but Perrin appeared in 2023, your game says was published in 2020, yet Perrin has the same eye shape, eye color, clothing style, face shape, hair shape, hair length, hair style, hair color(s), hair color gradient all with the exact same pattern, even the same profession (both are "art" teachers) as Jacklyn... couldn't this be considered kind of a copyright infringement or something?
At least six to seven years from now. The story hasn't even reached the halfway point yet and still has tons of content in the pipeline. As is stated above an Android port is probably going to happen, but it most likely won't be worked on until the game is close to wrapping up production.
Also to clarify, the fine folks at TimeWizardStudios are and have been working really hard on this game. The reason I say it will take that long is not because of any shirking on their part, rather it's because of how ridiculously in depth this game actually is and the sheer amount of things they are doing with it. Just wanted to clarify that point.
Encountered a soft lock! I'm stuck in the middle of "Jailbirds and Bees", as I somehow never obtained Isabelle's number, so I cannot call her. Is there any way to edit the save to give myself her number? Also, if you could make it so that you obtain her phone number when you start dating, I think that would fix my current issue.
Other than the softlock, awesome game! This is definitely in my top three VNs of all time, the characters feel pretty realistic and the writing is topnotch!
I haven't played in a few years, is the story better or does it keep continuing without any reason? Does the mc become a better person or his he still bad?
Valid question, this guy is in a unique situation and has some interesting reactions to it. I'm interested in seeing how his character will develop in further seasons. Also the story stays as good as it always has been.
Im having a big problem with season 2 quest out on the waves,im supposed to talk to flora on the boat she isnt there and there isnt another location is it bugged or im just blind and cant see the prompt

does anyone where in the save file the value for the money is...?
been stuck on the recent $1900 Lindsey quest for basically months now 😭
Ok, i'm stuck guys! How do I get past the A Beautiful Motive quest? Once I did it, the only quest avaiable is the Detroning queen one and I've already know what happens in that one... I want to progress in Lindey storyline but the game simply won't let me... If someone could help pls... Thanks a lot
i froget the name of the quest but when doing the spider egg quest, if you peeked over when she was in the bathroom it disables progress with her,
dont worry mate... as you progress in act 2 or season 2 or whatever, she recovers from her coma and you will visit her day by day... and then out of quest and waits for another update... *sigh*😩

We seriously need a new way to earn money. Scrounging for 20 bucks is tiring and time consuming
Dose anyone know why the Mrs. L's Strokees sceen is locked for me even though i'v completed it.
Perfect game, I hope that someday it will be possible to make Lindsey walk again, even if it's with hidden magic.
Good game, but you could add more to each dialog box instead of making an unnecessary amount of clicks per scene.
Has the author considered using simplified Chinese? 😈😈
is original.
good game my friend,
how do i gain access to playing something playful and spontaneous on the piano? i think im on season 1 still new to the game, any help will be appreciated!
Love the Lindsey route, but I think it's doesn't progress any further then (spoilers) the first night she comes over. 😞
Android Version plzzzzzzz
Will never work
Can't progress past the accident with the chili and Flora. Jo supposed to be blocking the mini-fridge, but no Jo on screen to click on.
just click on the fridge
I did. Something about "I know better than reaching between her legs!" Except there are no legs.
true mb
create a distraction first
grab a knife, ketchup and a cutting board

Thank you Mat Pat,
Also the strange phone conversation at the beginning was with the Oculus too right? Does that help indicate the Oculus's reasoning at all?
Good point Dedo!

Android version!!!!! Plzz
game is a really cook like it! a want more similar games
How can I take the Jo route?
We're starving here.
I promised Kate to get some dirt on Jo, and I'm still waiting for that.
Ok, I was caught so out of guard when out of nowhere I hear Sonne’s singing at the start of Sauce/Off. I respect ball.
Who is Sonne? (Sorry for not ballin').
its normal that im trapped in the out on the waves mission? it says i have to talk wih flora but flora is nowhere to be seen. i dont know what to do. thanks
Will the game be animated in any way and will it have VA for moans and stuff?
I hate that there is no way to increase stats, other then that it's a fun game so far.
you can increase them by finding books around the game, along with some choices

Uhh it's probably coincidence dude, that happens
A coincidence would be for the character to maybe share two or three characteristics, not ALL of them lemao
I'm pretty sure pokemon devs did NOT add a character from a porn game dawg
would it really be so weird though? the devs didn't seem to care anyway so wasted time, but still funny
Any update on an android release?
cuando habrá traducción al español?
preguntale a toby fox
