Alpha 4.2 Release!
🕑 Added 2019-08-27 06:21:42 +0000 UTCHello everyone, Alpha 4.2 has officially been released! This version brings with it a complete overhaul to the final date with Purple Smart. It is over four times longer and contains many new lewd images. In order to see it you'll need to replay that date, however.
We are going to rework the old interactive scene back in the game as an easter egg but for right now it is temporarily disabled due to some issues that arose when upgrading several parts of our engine.
With this release also comes the very first public alpha Android build! Keep in mind that this is mostly a proof of concept and, while the game works and is playable, it may be a bit finicky. Some thing to take note of is that: 1-finger tap = left click, 2-finger tap = right click. You will need to tap once with both fingers to put an inventory item back in your bag.
In the future we will be looking at improving the user experience of the Android build.

This issue has been fixed.
StudioWhy
I have replicated the issue. We will have a fix up as soon as possible.

Heya. It seems I can never get to the stargazing part. After Purple suggests it, I'd go to the balcony at night but I don't see her. I tried redownloading the game and starting a new file but it still doesn't work.
StudioWhy
We have uploaded a fixed version. Your old saves should work fine with it.
StudioWhy
In the meantime I have replaced the builds with the older version. That should be able to run the final scene without issue.
StudioWhy
That's not good. We recently hotfixed the build and it seems to have introduced that crash. We will get up another fix ASAP.

I'm having an issue getting to the first stargazing scene... I was only able to access the lewd scene by loading an old existing save in the middle of it. The game also crashed as soon as the comet showed up : / I do love the new scene, though! I'd say it's better than the old one!
GhostBoy
Awesome! Thanks for the quick response. Good to hear that there will be a good amount of content. Once the game is out in full I'm hoping for some derpy related content :3
StudioWhy
There will be some cute-lewd content in the next date with Purple. I'd say expect for each character at the absolute bare minimum expect 6-7 'dates' for each character with one cute-lewd and one very lewd. Once we finish that for each character we will focus on adding more lewd/fetishy dates for each character.
GhostBoy
Just a quick question. Will there eventually be more dates/lewds for purple? Or is it planned to just be one lewd per character? Seeing as you're doing Blue next are you just getting basic dates done with each main, then adding more? Thanks for your time!
StudioWhy
The revised scene happen normally by replaying Purple Smart's route. The revision affected her final scene.

Hello friend, good game, but I do not understand something, you said there are new scenes, but I did not understand how to unlock them, can you help me?
StudioWhy
Blue Fast is the next character we will be doing, based on the results of an earlier patron poll.

Si también spike y las cmc.

What about Spike?
StudioWhy
The size of the project is due to the sheer number of unique sprites. In addition to sets of 'default' poses, we have hundreds of unique frames. This is in contrast to most traditional VN's which only have a few dozen poses for each character at most.

I have to assume is due using Unity as the engine instead of using something more fitting for VN like Renpy, i can just speculate about the reason, Tiarawhy has been working on stories with mini-games and seems like Unity is the first option for people who want to make games, the game might use less resources if the time for developing and implementing content for PWS would be spent on improving how the game works. I'm worried that the plans for Pony Waifu Sim is something grandiose since even small projects have a ridiculous amount of failure-rate, along with the devs going radio silent then releasing something once in a blue moon and the project being stuck forever in developement and no release. This is probably the first male human on female feral or even feral at all outside of flash games, i'm thankful that you didn't choose the second and third most used options RPG Maker and Wolf RPG, keep the good work and i hope you can be successful.

Que personaje es el siguiente de cita lasiva? Espero que flutterhsy.
StudioWhy
If you got through the lewd scene with Purple Smart and did everything else you mentioned, then you've experienced all the content there is for now. We are continuing to work on content and plan to eventually have lewd scenes with every character.
MarcoElNavegante
I know I should not complain about a free game that I really appreciate but to be 2.29gb I have very little content. I already fell in love with Twilith and we "did it" (an oral from her) after the breakfast only gives me the option to greet and spend time with her. I already bought her the hair pin for Rarity and the gloves and like Twi she only gives me 2 options to greet her and spend time with her the same with the others: I already made the aviary with Fluttershy, I already helped RD with his merchandise, AJ with the apples and Pinkie with his cake. Nothing else AJ gives me the option to buy cider to make the light bar with zecora. Should I spend a lot of time with all of them to give me more options? post. I haven't played previous versions so I don't know what changes there are.

Is there an alternate download link for Android? Nothing happens when I click the link

I have a problem with version 4.2. After the prologue, all I can do is talk to Purple in the kitchen at the beginning. Then I have only "just say hi" and "chat for a bit" with her. I have the same thing with Ponka and Fluster. In the previous version, I baked Ponka cake and made a birdhouse from Fluster and now I don't have these scenes. With Apple, Blue and Charity everything is as in the previous version. I downloaded again and without any changes. What can it be about?
Stellarator
Noted. :)
StudioWhy
Please DO submit unsolicited bug reports. All feedback is welcome!
Stellarator
Unfortunately that is kind of a catch-22. Fewer donors also leads to less content getting made.
Stellarator
Oh, I see. Thanks! I'll avoid offering further unsolicited bug reports unless you ask for testers. :)
PhoenixRage23
This may seem like a really dumb question. Is there anything to do in the game besides just clicking on the characters and "getting to know them a tiny bit better"? Am I missing some crucial part in playing to "date" the different ponies? Is there a walkthrough? Sorry for all the questions.
PhoenixRage23
I know this type of game takes a lot to make, but bigger updates with a lot more lewd scenes would probably get more patrons. Once there are more hscenes I will definitly become a paying patron to support you guys.
StudioWhy
The black screen when you kiss purple is intended. The telescope leading to the broken old lewd scene is a known issue I mentioned in the post and will be fixed soon.
Jose Fabian Gutierrez Garcia
Si guardo con frecuencia pero no se por que esta rota esa parte del juego espero que se repare.
Gabriel Petty
The Telescope is still clickable in this version and it locks you into a broken version of the old flash game, beware if you don't save often.
Jose Fabian Gutierrez Garcia
Bueno ya lo jugué y tuve varios problemas para empezar al final en la cocina cuando se da la opcion de besar a smart todo queda en negro, luego para ver el telescopio y ver el recuerdo en el balcón simple mente no se puede jugar. Por último tengo una pregunta la escena lasciva es sólo sexo oral? Perdón por el vocabulario. Eso es todo gracias.
StudioWhy
We are looking into improving the user experience for the Android port, but for now hitting the back button on Android opens the menu.
Stellarator
One note, in case it's useful: there doesn't seem to be any way to get to the menu in game on Android, so I'm relying on autosaves. Obviously it's super-alpha, but I figured I'd make a note of that. Cheers!
Stellarator
Wow... I poked at this some time ago, and it was neat but had barely any content. The android release mad me check back, and *wow* you guys have made progress. It is cute and fun and professional looking, and frankly I'd still play it without any lewds.
Connor Cluff
Okay, thanks!
StudioWhy
Right. In addition to re-working the lewd part of the date we added a lot of content before and afterwords. There is now some foreplay and a conclusion at breakfast the next day.
Connor Cluff
Alright, I was just confused because you posted a picture of Purple Smart sitting next to the viewer while the viewer scratches behind her ear at the dining room/kitchen table.
StudioWhy
The lewd scene.
Connor Cluff
Studio Why, did you rework the whole game or just the lewd scene?
Low Intelligence Creature
Update is somewhat short, but still, absolutely clean and good job! This is DEFINETLY a step in the right direction for the game.
Zizara
Alright, that was pretty cute. Twiggles wasn't my absolute fav but you guys are doing a great job of selling her. The replacement scene is fantastic too.
Dakota Moritz
Very nice job! I look forward to seeing whats next. <3
StudioWhy
I have re-built the OS version and it should be working.
StudioWhy
That's an old scrapped idea. There's nothing there since we scrapped it before we started work on it.
AllTheFoxes
Moar soon? Pretty please

A Question: What in the Hay is the BellyScene ? Pushed some Keys becouse nothing happend in the BJ Scene. Found a ComboBox where i could select Rooms and Load them. And yeah that BellyScene int loading ( Just a Loading Screen)
Tom Deer
mac version just "loading"... game will not start :-(
Gong The Hawkeye
Yep, also tried loading autosave, meddling with ~(console?) and then starting new game and skipping thru dialoges. In new game i couldn't have any events with any of main 6 when I tried talking to any of them I had only 2 options "just saying hi" and "I wanted to chat a little" and events with Applejack and Rarity didn't even start and they were just standing there like I did the events before. Then I downloaded version again and everything worked normal. It was a Windows version. If you want I can pack the broken version ans send it to you so you can have a look at what's broken.
Applestone
Great news! ^^
xBlackD
i had some problems with an earlier version but after deleting the folder in "appdata\locallow" and reinstalling everyting worked. maybe this could help you too.
Gong The Hawkeye
StudioWhy
Have you tried talking to Purple in the morning?
Gong The Hawkeye
I can't progress thru second stargazing. Game teleports me to my room then I go to a balcony and: a) If I click on Twi I just have one option "Just saying hi" b) If i click on the telescope it says that I should not touch it without Twi supervision.
