In order to make reading the FAQs simple and pleasant, we are grouping some questions into one.
The list will be updated as new questions are raised by players.

_________________________________
How do I transfer my save to a new version?
You can transfer your save by copying the "Save" and "Options" files from the "SunriseCity_Data" folder of the old version to the "SunriseCity_Data" folder of the new version and then starting the game.
Are other platforms than Windows planned?
A Mac version is planned but we don't have a release date yet.
We're not planning to make an Android version.
How long will the game be?
Although we've already defined the end of the first part of Sunrise City (Kyle's story), it's difficult to estimate how long the game will be. The main storyline is based on the hero's 3 years of studies and his fight against Nova, which should bring Sunrise City to at least 20 hours of game time.
As each episode will make the world grow (new places, characters, personal stories...) and add/deepen game mechanics, the game time can only increase.
What content is planned?
Since gameplay is very important for us in order to make a game, many features are planned such as for example:
- A battle system based on a customizable deck of skills.
- A feature for learning and improving skills.
- An investigation system with clue search on crime scenes and interrogation.
- A dating system requiring reflection and tactics.
- The management of different places (shop, clubs...) to earn money and bonuses.
- Side quests (investigations, characters' personal stories...).
- And much more.
How much time is planned between each version?
Currently, an episode takes us between 3 and 4 months. We are trying to reduce this time, but we can't do better than 2 months without really reducing the quality of the graphics or rushing the story, because we are only a team of two.
Depending on the script and the patrons' votes, the content and amount of work can vary greatly from one version to another. In order to limit the waiting time, we are now trying to make shorter versions that allow us to put in place the necessary content for the big versions.
What's the ratio of story/adult content?
Our goal is to make an adult game. We're talking about a game with its graphics, its story and its game mechanics.
We think it is possible to make a game with adult content while having an interesting story and game mechanics. There are a lot of games that are doing that and we want to be a part of it.
That's why we don't focus exclusively on adult content. We take the time to set up interesting places and characters rather than just putting one sex scene after another. We want you to create bounds with the characters and feel like a Sunrise City resident, while keeping some action and investigation. As a result, the story/adult content ratio may vary from one episode to another depending on what there is to tell, but we always try to put in adult content whenever possible.
What is planned in terms of adult content?
We try to create a believable contemporary world, and we don't want to put adult content everywhere. However, we do try to include some in the main storyline (directly or as rewards), but most of the content will be found in side content that is more freely created.
We have a lot of things planned in terms of adult content. You can already see that the characters in the prologue have a wide variety of designs, which will allow us to explore many fetishes. Note that ultimately, we'd like to have animated scenes.
Many fetishes are planned, but here are the ones we will not include: Incest, Rape, Lolicon and Shotacon. (This list is likely to grow over time).
I am a VIP tier (or have been) and my name/nickname is missing from the credits, or I would like to change/remove it.
If there is an error or oversight on our part, we apologize. Send us a PM so we can correct it.
However, you will have to wait for a future release for the change to be effective.

That's it for the FAQs, we hope we've answered your questions and that you have a better picture of what the game is going to be like.

The reason that i can put in a simply way is that many teams try to do principally a good eroge at first, but not a good game as base and doing so they fail; If i can do some examples of good games, with adult contents in development, i would say Aurelia, from Mirthal and Zombie's Retreat from Siren's Domain... you're one of these creators that are trying to create at first a good game

I want to say, about your thoughts about the adult contents, that i love what had you plan; the reasons are many and i don't want to bother you
