hopefully there's NTR or sharing like in College Daze, love what you've done so far!

This definitely feels quite ambitious. I love having a lot of customisation especially with basic personalities of the cast.

I was wondering where you'd go after College Daze. This was unexpected but is now highly anticipated for me.

I like the option to modify previous choices instead of digging way back into old saves to experience new event.

Love it so far! Can't wait to see where some of these options lead.

Hey yeah, that's where it ends for now but there'll be more in the future.

hello don't know if this is something that is designed but I get "Error: the passage "Intro010bStart23" does not exist" right after Nia Omari. i have the bugfix installed too.

So it'll be similar to College Daze with event hubs that you pick stuff from. There will be different events for different time periods, and sometimes events will railroad you (just like College Daze) before you can pick new stuff again. But overall it'll be a lot easier to see all of the content you want in a given period. As far as literal time passing, it'll be kept within a year because I don't want to deal with characters going on maternity leave while they deal with a newborn lol. That kind of thing will be saved for epilogues. With that in mind, the player will only have to worry about remaining popular in an abstract sense -- depending on your goals for the previously mentioned epilogues.

Sounds really cool, How will time advance will it be an every day story thing(Like the story progresses day-to-day, sort of like how college daze is at the start), will months/years pass, will there be time skips? Also will we need to get re-elected or will we be able to bypass that by being a dictator?

G28

So the player won't really need to pick up traits for themselves in the same way as characters, but they will be able to make a lot of modifications to the country and stuff, which then reflects back on them. For instance, if you decide to seize control of the country's religion, people will definitely comment on that whenever they encounter you.

G28

Yeah, I still have a lot of events planned for the first day. And some people have already started making requests for it, so moving forward will probably be a mix of updates for both games. I know splitting time between games usually isn't ideal, since it's typically just an excuse not to do much for either, but I'm hoping that it'll actually keep things fresh for each.

Caimbeul

This looks good, honestly I'm a bit supprised but I could see myself getting more into it. I would like to see more customisation for my own character, like perhaps developing traits (Which I noticed other characters might have in the future.) But that up to other people as well.

JoJo

Interesting idea with the religion and the backstory chosing for the characters. looking very fine so far :)

Nick

Looks interesting. Are you going to divide your time between the games or is this like a trailer where we're not going to see more until later in the year?

G28

Thanks, I really appreciate it!

Looks good for a first release so far and cant wait to see where this game take us
