BTW, if you can solve the problem of spartacus too, it would be great.

Did you mean Darthamius's problem ?

Sorry, no. I've never been able to reproduce it (even locally), nor can't see any evident reason. I guess it would be interested to know first if they've really seen and clicked all the "buttons": next/cum/end.

[hagya229]

Yep, I meant Darthamius :s. He didn't see my message because the PM I sent him is still in my outbox. I think there is really a bug though because some of those who had it could play after, just the girl hides a big part of the screen.

Hey, just sent you the package on the email. Could've sworn i sent it back awhile ago but I resent it for you. Also a special sample inside! c:

[musical74]

Did you ever upload a new version or are you still on version 8? Like to be able to download this again

I just updated it

[docsilence]

Great game. My only concern at this point is where's Ballentine's Bracelet???

[hagya229]

I don't remember exactly but it should be in some of the map south of her house.

[docsilence]

Amusingly enough I found it soon after I posted that. It was near the area south of her house.

[shadowstarthe1st]

i have one question how do you get clay?

[hagya229]

Clay is the "red goo" you find in the map called red land near your home.

I've skipped the dialogue about meeting the mermaid from Svetlana and I have no idea how to do it. And for some reason I can't trigger that dialogue on a new game. The mermaid is the last girl I need to woo, so I need some help.

[hagya229]

It's answered in the first page of this topic but in next version, there will be more hints about how to find the mermaid.

[Toyloli]

Okay. Please tell me that this game is still updating/
I found and downloaded it not that long ago - fired it up expecting the usual 10 to 15 minutes of gameplay with lots of fanservice.
Hours later I was still playing.

I love this game for the actual gameplay and that is rare with hentai games. The length of the day is just short enough to be infuriating, while just long enough to let you plan ahead and the mini games are challenging without being over the top.
I love this and I want to see it go places.

Now the Nitpicks.
Please add more dialog options. If I hear that botanist complain one more time about her breasts I will slap her.
Please give the fairies plotlnes. I love them and they are essential for gameplay - but I feel bad making them work day after day and not giving them any fun time.

Which brings me to my next point. By the time the emo tattoo girl turned up the whole "New girl, build her a house, charm and seduce her" thing was becoming old.
Fortunately I have a solution.

Entertainment
Instead of adding new girls I recommend unlock-able entertainment. Things like a movie screen, a picnic table, lookout points to watch the ocean, dance floor (I dunno be inventive);
Each one of these will unlock in the building chart based on how many girls you've charmed. (two for the theatre, three for the picnic whatever just give them flags)

Once built a number of things can happen. Invite one or more girls to an event - and you get to play a minigame. Successfully playing that minigame increases your relationship with characters and or unlocks a sex scene. But here is the new mechanic.
Give each of the girls a set of flags or values for each other. When inviting two or more girls to group activities, the result of the minigame is that they will like each other, will start to hang out together during the day time and give the player options to a) watch them going all les b) take part in threesome c) then progress from threesomes to foursomes etc.

Imagine some arbitrary day, you go to one of the houses in the morning and are told "There is a suspicious sound inside. Do you wanna peek?"
Or going down to the beach and finding the girls making out.

There are all kinds of ways to add additional scenes and content without adding more girls.

Anyhow - let me know what you think of these suggestions.

[RunningAroundInCircles]

Which brings me to my next point. By the time the emo tattoo girl turned up the whole "New girl, build her a house, charm and seduce her" thing was becoming old.

That's pretty much what I was worried about, when I said I won't give suggestions yet as you just released the game for the first time. Without other content the it just gets repetative and stagnates after a while.
On the other hand, Toyloli's solutions are also close to what I had in mind back then and as a long time fan of your game and farming and building sims, I totally second that.

But then again, let's hear your opinion, it's your game after all. I'll be glad to offer suggestions, if wanted.

[hagya229]

I know the game gets kinda repetitive. Of course, you players want a game with lot of content and features and stuff but from the "developer side", I'm more realistic. A lot of suggestions I receive are from people who underestimate greatly the difficulty to create a game (that's also why there is so much project that are started and never finished). I'll probably won't add the entertainment mechanic. First because my game is not really about unlocking sex scenes. This game is about colonizing a deserted island and making it full of life. To make it full of life, more people need to settle on the island even if their life is boring as they don't do much (going to the sea seems to be their main activity).
Second, I can only do a few scenes per month and only one animated. Lesbian things + threesomes + foursomes are a lot of scenes. It's something possible in a text only game but not in pokkaloh. (There will probably be group sex at some point though). I don't want to arbitrarily choose what lesbian scenes will happen or what threesomes. This thing happen in visual novels where everything is decided by the story of the game but the players and I won't understand why there can be lesbian sex between X and Y but not between X and Z.
Third, I'm selfish and I always do stuff the way I want :p
Fourth, the game should be ended before the end of the year. I somehow took a liking to developing eroge so I may develop another one once this one is finished.

But rejoice! In the version I just released today, there is nothing to break the repetitiveness of the game but in the next version, there will be a pirate (and so treasure hunts) and a barn with some animals (furries). In the 0.9 version, there will be a latina girl who work in a restaurant/resort (not sure yet) that will need to be corrupted to have sex with her. I try to break the monotony by adding small changes between the girls but that's about it. I'm a solo dev, not a AAA studio. I know the game could be a lot better but please play the game for what it is and not for what it could be.

Anyway, I released a new version, check the first post.

[UnsungHero]

So when's the map gonna get bigger?

Anyway

My suggestions are building options and based on leveling


A Trade Outpost for Sierra
So when she shows up she has a place to stock requests so you can make up for days where you missed requests you didn't have and can get rid of the various stockpiles of items or offers a bigger selection of rewards

The ability to mass produce items based on level, IE instead of cooking something one at a time, say at level ten, you can cook four or five in the span of one,

Some type of Fish trap, that corresponds to types of fish, that you can check daily maybe make it correspond with Sveltana?

IE the Basic fish trap is Mackerel, Needle fish and Turbots
The Advanced Fish trap gathers Chubs Bass and Squid
The Deep Sea trap gathers stingray and pearls and IDK Lobsters

How do you find the mermaid?

[loshi1505]

How do you find the mermaid?

read the first page, it's on there....

to the game dev
bugs!

1st
when switching between mouse and keyboard in a choice selection menu thingie if you fly off screen with the mouse adter proc-ing the choices it'll freaze up the arrows/WASD keys to not move and select things... >_< that bug took me a good 30 mins to figure out... not sure I explained it well either... but I'm sure you'll figure it out.

2nd
umm.... what..... squids now come in the form of an octopus? >_>
octopus produces ink? <_<
also a bit far fetched for 3 of them needed to produce ink though don't cha think. >_<

3rd
not really a bug per say but the hit area on larger fishes and on the boar some times doesn't register... I mean I understand the fishing hook needing to be 'near' it's head... but to have to directly touch it's mouth is a bit of a pain. >_>
and I know that arrows going though the top half of the boar without hitting it is a bug. -_-

suggestions

1st
homo rute is now open?.... can I ask no? or at least have the option of turning that one guy (not MC) into a girl for the test purposes of seeing if a modified human can conceive?... at least that'd make it less homo and slightly more hetero.... >_>
<_<
yeah I know tastes and what not... I can still request it can't I!!

2nd
mermaid only need pearls payments 2-3 times before you can have freebies.
also maybe some underwater sex is warranted.

3rd
after your first sex with the girls you unlock either gallery mode with auto and replay feature or every time you now sex them there's no longer the manual part to it....
hands free is a must for a good porn game ya know.

4th
is it me or do the girls never really interact with each other... and I'm not meaning sexually... though that should also be up for consideration later.... but I mean like they never really acknowledge each others existences at all... nor talk to or about each other...
like what is their thoughts and feeling on the MC sleeping with their neighbor and not being in a relationship with them (yet)?
how about their thoughts on the MC sleeping with everything on the island that's remotely humanoid that has a vag?
is there no friendships between the girls being made day by day like they do with the MC. (also leading into yuri if those characters happen to be more bi than hetro.)
is there a full on homo girl planed?
stuff to ponder for future updates. as all of these are options and choices you the dev should make.

5th
more of a questions spam than suggestions but....
since the furry girl can be impregnated... does that mean she will be giving birth?
is there going to be incest when they grow up? (assuming there's a female baby in the litter of course)
will birthing be one time event or happen more than once?
and of course the questionable and niche fetish of multi-generational incest: will you be able to impregnate the daughter assuming there is one? (I somewhat doubt you'll go this far but who know. *shrugs* it is your game after all.)
will any of these events happen with any of the other girls?
more stuff to ponder and decide as the game dev....

6th
seeing as the game is mostly vanilla-ish content (or at minimum sex friends like stuff) is that the niche the game will continue to go for?
(I really hope so as my personal opinion is that the rape/NTR genre needs to die)
but still another thing to think about as decide as game dev.

requests!!!

1st
all athletic girls get more muscles on them!
sure the muscles and stuff are talked about and mentioned... but they don't look very well built. >_>
at least give them some abs and biceps depending on who they are and how much the work them.
and on the flip side maybe some of the lesser athletic girls could look more skinny or pudgy depending.
different body types for the win ya know.

2nd
a loli fake or not is required... also maybe an older woman type too... like the MC's supposed to be in his 20's right?
so maybe a hot late 30's early 40's older woman that has a motherly aura would be a good fit...
heck you COULD make her a school teacher for all the kids (assuming there is gonna be some) and thus her job profession being both a teacher and doctor or something.
also for the loli-fake or not.... hmm... no idea of a good job profession... but I'm sure you'll figure out something.

3rd
as much as I like the new art the expressions are abit... under developed... like for example I like the fishing girl's initial expression before penetration.. but after... >_>
not my forte....
and although I like some of the other girls having different position preferences... all of their expressions are kinda meh....
(to be clear I'm taking the new art one, NOT the old art ones that I know will be remade at some point)
for some creative inspiration think of their personalities, next think of their preferences both sexual and how they'd respond to MC, after that think of how or if they're enjoying it, lastly think of the details like if they're in pain (due to virginity) or not.
this train of thought SHOULD (doesn't mean will) lead to better expressions over the course of their sex scenes.
(personally I hope you don't make all of them virgins or even most... but that's nothing more than my biased preference. take it as you will. )

[hagya229]

Cool numbers help me to answer!
Bugs :
1- I don't understand the bug but you're not supposed to play the game with both the mouse and the keyboard
2- You're right, in the next version, you'll only need two
3- I think it's fine like this

Suggestions:
3- The sex animations are available to play hands free for $5+ patrons
4- The pirate will talk a little about Maisha but that's all
5- She won't give birth
6- There won't be rape and lolis, that's the only thing I'm sure

[mooty]

Bellantine's expressions looks sick, like she has the flu or she's physically ill.
Anyway everytime after you had sex with her she says you're getting better everytime and soon she won't be able to keep up.
Was that just flavor dialogue or a genuine future update? Cause it would be great if the seduction and stalking level actually did something like getting some more interaction with each girl and not just a boring next button and optional extras which don't affect the character progression in any way. The scenes I especially just end up skipping because of how slow and insignificant the animations are.

I didn't mean to bump the thread for 1 suggestion btw. Feel free to send it back to page 3 until the creator replies back.
