Regarding Chika
Here I will be addressing some concerns and misunderstandings regarding Chika in the update 0.3.
It's interesting to see the many reactions from the players about Chika's development so far. I see some prejudice and some are very quick to judge. If you just want quick sex and super fast relationships then my game is definitely not for you. This is more about how characters overcome their past and sufferings, and really get to know each other. Just like real life. You learn more about someone as you spend more time with them, in various different situations. You can choose to love them, or ignore them. You're not forced to go with any specific route. I guess some immediately think it's gonna be love or relationship from the start. However, it could be friendship or just wanna help someone get a better life. She helped your sister too. Many don't realize that a lot of love also starts from friendships. I would say that you shouldn't see the girls in my game as purely "Love interests". They're just more prominent characters that are featured in the stories and ones that you can interact with. I don't consider my game a typical AVN. I'm merely writing stories I want to present. That being said, you can still help Chika, without being in love with her.
A girl you met a week ago and only talked to a few times won't just magically spills all of the secrets and stories about herself. You have to know that relationship takes time, especially for someone who was hurt so many times like her, if you're really interested in her, help her open up her heart, instead of giving her another bad experience. There's a lot you need to uncover about her story to fully understand, and the truth will surprise you. This has become like a test or experiment. Some stop caring and walk away as soon as they see that there are some indications that she's a "prostitute"(the quotation marks matter, as you will understand it in future updates), and never try to fully understand her. They will miss out on some good stories, and the truth is not what everybody thinks. As for those few who's calling this NTR or not vanilla, well... All I can say is that you don't really fully understand the meaning of those tags, and you made judgement too quickly. Her story is only just starting. If you actually try to overcome your prejudice and try to uncover her, you will know more about the truth. But if you still decide against it, it's very easy to end her route as well. I didn't force you to go through with her story, it's completely up to you. What I can say is that this is not a NTR game, and is vanilla. You will understand if you're willing to play future updates and actually uncover her story.
Do you really expect every girl you see to be a complete virgin? That no girls had prior sex experience with their ex or whoever? We already have some girls that are virgins. I don't want to make it into some virgin collector game. Don't forget, MC isn't a virgin as well, he had an ex, so please stop having double standards. My game has its own unique audience. So for those who don't like it, you got like at least 1000 other AVNs to try, no need to leave useless hateful comments or reviews about that one thing you don't agree with(the toxic players). Provide some actual feedback please. It’s okay to not like her, I respect your preference. But I definitely have no respect for those that make fun of her suffering and status, or leave 1 star review just because they hate “prostitute”. They’re the exact kind of people Chika is referring to in the story, and the reason why we can’t have nice things. Everyone and every job deserve respect, even if you don’t agree with or like it. Whatever the case is, I stand by the story I’m creating, I don’t really care if some fainthearted players don’t like it because they can’t take it. If they’re not willing to try to see past their own prejudice and judgment, and watch how the story plays out, then I don’t really want them to play my game either. This is clearly not for them.
People will keep talking, while I keep cooking.

Here is an updated patched version of the game, the developer version does not work, there are various features
i think Your game is best
我喜欢你的游戏
Here's my suggestion. I hope the protagonist can be more proactive. Make unexpected moves towards the heroines to make them feel flustered. Overall, the male - lead still seems too wooden.
Enjoying the game!
Will say, quibbles with a certain convo, cops would never let Vigilantes pass, they would likely go after them harder than other criminals.
Cops have to be the top thugs, it is basically their entire reason for existence, the state maintains a monopoly on violence, all violence, even criminal violence, is answerable to the state (as they maintain the right to stop it). This is only true if cops are the top of the civil violence food chain, if someone steps in and does the cops work, then all of the civilians would start asking reasonable questions like "why do the cops get so much funding" and "why can't we, do the cops job, but better with actual community interests in mind?".
So no, cops wouldn't let Vigilantes go because they get the work done, especially not flashy vigilantes that specifically do their work, cops would rather no one do their work, if they aren't doing it.
P.S: WHY THE FUCK IS THE JAPANESE GIRL IMPORTING A NISSAN FROM THE US, ITS A JAPANESE CAR.
i finish the game.. its good.. i love the story.. the music.. and the charater.. cant wait to next chapter.. i hope it didt take to loong.. cant wait to play..
Awesome game with great goofy humour.
Uh can someone help when I download the android vr it wont open and just hang up
I will
nottouch grassI really like this game the characters are good and I also like the background music haha.
Anyone here please tell me how do i unlock ayase's scenes? Ive repeated the game multiple times and just cant unlock it
The first ayase scene? If it is then you should have pick her do the cat pose when you have a first meeting with her then you can unlock all her scene
Just pick the best thing you should do with/to her if you will make a choice
Just asking. Is the main story/ LI's side stories finished, cause I don't want to start the game only to know later that I must wait for an update.
it's only up to version 0.3 and there's a whole rant about one character's story having alot more to it that you will see in later updates, I'd say it's a safe bet that it's not even close to finished
Welp.. that's upsetting. Thanks for info.
how to unlock the scene after drunk and wild?
okay so this looked interesting but all the ntr arguments had me needing more info, so I read the all the comments and replies that came up in a ctl+f search
from what I can tell you start developing a relationship with her and then find out that she is actively having sex with other guys, even if there is some sob story about her situation it is still 100% ntr and I'm not interested, even if she does stop being a prostitute or whatever the situation is. for me that would just leave a sour taste and the revelation would just have me nope out feeling that it would most likely get worse from there, if you're gonna have that then what else are you likely to include (especially the way the comments describe it happening of sleeping with her, not knowing what she does meaning that she's hiding the fact, and then seeing her come out of a love hotel with some other guy)
especially if what I read about 2 other (vanilla) love interests being removed to accommodate her story is true then it seems likely the story is going to go downhill rather than improve
the main thing to me is how it unfolds, if she intentionally kept you at arms length because of her situation, then it wouldn't be ntr but if she let you close without letting you know then she is intentionally cucking you, whether she wanted to, didn't care, or felt forced to
even if I've misunderstood the depth of mc's relationship with her and it's somehow just a hook-up, it feels off because if she sleeps with the mc without whatever her usual situation involves then it means she sees something special about the mc in which case it doesn't make sense as just a hook-up, and not telling him beforehand is uber mega uncool (aka ntr)
so as far as I can see your rant about it not being ntr is just wrong and you should just own up to what you've made rather than telling everyone it's not what it is, it may not be the focus but it exists and the fact that this very niche, and incredibly divisive genre is included at all should be mentioned, e.g. "this game contains elements of ntr but it is not the main focus, if you can't handle that then this game may not be for you" rather than the way you've currently done so
It's definitely a shaky situation he's created. Also you're comment made me curious enough to redownload and sift through her scenes to refresh my memory.
After redownloading and quickly sifting through some of her scenes. Especially the controversial one. I've discovered this:
The MC's relationship with her starts as a simple friendship, he's nice to her because she helped out his (nonbiological) sister and she doesn't know why as she's been bullied her whole life, mc discovers her dad is a piece of shit so he tells her she can stay the night at his apartment, the two are basically close friends at this point (There's not a single H-scene with her before this point either), she then interrogates the MC about why he's so nice to her, reveals she gets paid for sex because her dad doesn't work, she's paying the bills as well as paying for his severe alcoholism, THEN the H-scene option appears as she assumes the MC only cares about her for sex and tries to coax him into a one-night stand. No matter what you choose, a couple days later she walks out of a love hotel with a guy. Then the MC goes to see her situation for himself and also discovers that her mother died during childbirth.
So it at least gives you the option to say no to her which makes me think some of these people are exaggerating a bit because you DO know what she does before being given the option of having sex with her. Another point worth noting is that saying no to her advances gives you MORE POINTS with her than saying yes. In other words skipping the scene is "better" despite this being a porn game and everyone usually doing the opposite.
I also wouldn't say she keeps you at arms length but as close as you would keep a friend. Then randomly telling that friend a dark secret because you have no idea why they're nice to you.
It's still a very controversial choice to include it in an adult game knowing that EVERYONE hates NTR. I'm honestly just biding my time until the next update to her story so I can come to a conclusion on whether or not to dip out and forget about this game. But yeah, that's a slightly more accurate summary of this whole deal.
so if it's revealed beforehand then it's not as bad as everyone made it out to be and if it's clear that she doesn't trust you when the option comes up then it's not ntr, everyone made it seem like the reveal was a blindside and none of the "it's not ntr" crowd mentioned it (someone might have I was skimming for the most part there are alot of arguments, but if that's the case why was that not the goto defence rather than "but her story"?)
if mc knows everything and it's clear enough she doesn't trust you then it's the typical "saving a girl from forced/coerced prostitution" type story and not ntr, in which case I'll check it out, tho am curious about the supposed 2 characters removed so that she could be added, tho I have no idea if they were just proposed or if they were previously in the game and it was reworked
thanks for a coherent reply rather than most of what I read through trying to work out exactly what the whole thing was
No problem. I'm happy to help.
The "2 characters removed" thing is referencing some patreon post a while ago saying something about Yuka (Mc's nonbiological sister) and Eri (Mc's ex) being moved to the side-cast. I believe it's just a rumor by the community that they were benched for Chika. Might end up being true though.
Not really removed just lowered in terms of priority and future scene count for some reason.
that's honestly a huge relive some the comments made it sound like the author benched 2 already established LIs to make room for Chika's story, which for me would have been a huge turn off for the game cause while I'm not a huge fan of Chika's story the other character definitely make up for it IMO
"if mc knows everything and it's clear enough she doesn't trust you then it's the typical "saving a girl from forced/coerced prostitution" type story and not ntr"
Nope. It's still NTR. But instead of being cucked, it's instead NeToRase.
Which is an NTR tag. Which is still missing.
no because the english use of the ntr tag is for when an anime/manga inspired media contains cuckoldry and you can't cuck someone when there is no relationship, sharing is generally preferred as opposed to netorase (which I've seen shortened to nts to make a distinction from ntr) since there's no confusion with ntr when that's the case and sharing requires a proper relationship, atleast fwb, otherwise it's either prostitution or a casual one off hookup neither of which would count as even sharing.
I would not count the relationship described as one close enough to consider sharing since she doesn't trust you, I might change that opinion once I actually get around to playing it
I will agree vanilla sounds like false advertising tho
4 months later. And the NTR tags are still missing. Smh
There simply IS NO NTR! You might have realised that if you actually READ the story. And trust me, I personally know people like Chika and behind every single of them there is a tough story that brought them to the point of prostituting themselves! Who are you or I to judge them?
Is this game tagged as VANILLA harem?
Does it have prostitute LI?
Stop shitting on my plate and calling it a brownie. I'm not eating what you're cooking.
I'm not cooking anything. I simply enjoy the game without judging people. And, didn't even Jesus say: he who is without guilt shall throw the first stone? I'm no saint and I'm pretty sure, you ain't one either...
Where did i judge anyone?
Also give the definition of NTR.
you made me laugh with that brownie comment hahaha

我想看看有没有人提到0.3结尾小剧场的joss的游戏是什么，发现大伙都在讨论千佳，我认为在一个可选路线的免费H游里加入一个“可能"是“妓女"的角色是完全允许的，在我玩的某个游戏里，你甚至可以攻略女友的奶奶，我不认为这有什么问题，只是这不在我的癖好里，所以我没有选择与她建立恋爱关系。当然，合理表达意见和喜好是可以的，只是为什么要主动选择与自己不喜好的角色建立亲密关系然后把自己破防，在评论区到处出警呢。
所以有人知道0.3结尾的客串角色是哪个游戏的吗，谢谢各位
Any updates?

I have to say keep cooking this! I say dont listen to a single soul and keep up the hustle and make what you wanna make because this is refreshing and i see a bright future for this masterpeice in the making! I've never even left a comment before and have played 50+ avns. This was mandatory for me to let you know this is fire and excited to see where you take us! Keep it up G.💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm gonna be honest, after following all the drama for a while and looking at old posts, I'm beginning to have doubts? Lose hope? I guess "become disinterested in the game" is the right phrase here. It's cool you're trying to make some more nuanced/niche/unique characters, but uhh... That's gonna require some GOD-TIER writing. So good luck with that. Hope you can pull it off without somehow making it worse.
Also just wanna point out that Chika, kinda fits in with the whole "rescue girl" trope... Emphasis on "kinda" since that trope usually refers to homeless women/women with trauma and Chika is a step away from being homeless, there's currently not enough info to determine any trauma, and then there's.... "The Drama."
I also feel like you should find a way to write Yuka and Eri as main LI's... I mean MBML managed to find a way with some of the characters in it, so it is possible. Obviously they won't/probably won't be involved in all the criminal gang violence, but they could be emotional support for the MC or some shit? Idk, it just feels a bit cheap having them in that opening scene that basically foreshadows the MC's harem only to then announce they're no longer main LI's.
Anyways, I'm just gonna sit in the back and wait for 0.4, or whatever update continues Chika's story, before announcing my final verdict. So uhh, excuse me while I go do other things for a while... And I guess I'll be back at some point to play the update? Whenever it comes out. I don't really know what to say at the end here... So uhh... Good... Good luck... I guess? Try not to make it worse? Have fun with the GOD-TIER writing required to fix this?
Ehh, good enough.
太棒了
keep up! hope to have 0.4 soon, love all of them and u too KS
Come on!We have been waiting patiently for your finished product!🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
Keep cooking. Don't mind the losers.
这游戏的剧情让我很投入，我很享受这么棒的游戏，感谢KS，我也在爱发电赞助了KS，往后更新我会继续赞助的
I'm so desperate to get the right story, how to get ayase scene can someone help me? Please
Holy shit sir KS, id been putting off playing this for a bit to see where the development goes and decided to binge play it, and all i can say is PEAK. the soundtrack selection is soo on point, with the most emotional and hard hitting songs it sends it right home for me and its amazing. i love that so much effort is put into each character and i love what you do. dont listen to the haters! keep cooking KS. thanks so much for this masterpiece
Hey KawaiiSukebe!
Been enjoying the game, left things to stew a while back when you released 0.1, I'm glad to see that the game has kept going and in such a spectacular fashion! keep it up !!
You mentioned that we should wait for future updates to understand Chika’s story more and I get that you’re building something long-term, but I think a lot of players feel blindsided by how things played out early on. When a character has an intimate scene with the MC and then immediately sleeps with another guy the next day, it creates a sense of emotional disconnect. Not because people expect every character to be perfect or pure, but because that kind of development feels more like a betrayal than a meaningful plot twist.
This isn’t about double standards either. It’s about the emotional consistency and trust between the player and the story. Players naturally form attachments to characters, especially in a romance-driven game. When one of the main love interests acts in a way that breaks that connection so soon after being introduced, it can feel jarring and even alienating. The MC’s past isn’t really the same comparison here because the issue is about what’s happening during the story, not before it.
Also, I know you’ve said that your game isn’t for everyone and that’s fair. But it’s worth pointing out that the reaction you're seeing might not just be toxicity. It might be people feeling genuinely misled. If the game includes scenes or themes that align more with NTR, like one of the main girls sleeping with someone else after a scene with the MC, then players should be given that context upfront through proper tags. That way, people who love those themes can enjoy the game and those who aren’t into it can respectfully move on. It’s not about censoring your story, it’s about transparency so expectations are set correctly.
As for the defense around Chika’s backstory or struggles, I totally understand that there’s more to her than we currently know and I respect that you want to show a more nuanced character. But I think it’s also valid for players to still feel hurt or disappointed by how her actions affect the MC and the tone of the story, especially when it's so early in the game and emotional connections are just starting to form. A tragic backstory doesn’t automatically excuse behavior that feels like betrayal in the moment and that’s something that deserves thoughtful writing and balance.
You’ve got talent and the game clearly means a lot to you. I just hope you give players the clarity they need to engage with it in good faith.
Keep cooking, just maybe give it a taste yourself before serving it to others.
extremely well put, this articulates my issues with the story perfectly.
Y'all in the comments r making a fuss for nothing which shows how unemployed people can be. The game is still not finished and people r here complaining over a character being a whore or watsoever. Ik it's ur personal opinion on what u think of the game but it is my opinion too that y'all should not judge the game so soon and let the author do his work type shi💔💔
"What I can say is that this is not a NTR game, and is vanilla."
yeah nothing screams vanilla than having an active whore in the cast that fucks other dudes after she slept with the MC.
I can't fathom how a Cuck brain interprets reality.
Edit: also romance tag? stop the cap bruv
of course you can't fathom, you're severely lacking in brain cells. Maybe if you aren't thinking with you balls, you'd understand the story and how broken the character is
yeah i know you would see your mom in her and emphasise, sorry that we dont all come from broken homes with street-working moms like you?
im going to use my right to have an opinion by saying that your uneducated unemployed moms basement dwelling dumb ass should go touch grass and get a life.
just by reading a few comments and related context from the developer tells me that you just want to pick a fight because one girl isnt exclusive to the MC in this game due to reasons related to her story as a character (this story type is quite common irl if you didnt already realize).
so either stfu and play the game or dont play it and move on.
a self-report from a furrie pfp, you don't even try to beat the allegations, do you?
nah, i just cant stand fools who hate just for the sake of hating.
take the illogical and vastly irrational words found in cancel culture, then dilute it a fair bit so it is at least somewhat logical, then slap on some fact searching and some decent arguments...
that is close to what we have here when people hate on an indie game dev who is still actively working on a game.
we the community who consume these games are what makes or breaks indie game devs and should never hate them just for a difference in opinions and/or the way the game is designed.
and hey, at least this game has actual effort being put into it instead of making every single part of it AI generated. too many people are doing that for everything including the visuals. AI is a creative utility, not a replacement for actual talent and hard work
The MC is literally messing with multiple women. Why does it bother you so that there's a woman in the cast who also "messes with other guys"? (If you actually read the story, you'd be given all the necessary context why she is the way she is.)
Damn, touch grass. Imagine getting this mad over a 3D porn game
Is it jst me or our mc looks abit like Sanz from Ateez???😭😭 Anyways I luv tis game thanks to the dev for their hardwork n dedication into makin it a masterpiece❤❤
Patiently waiting for next update<3
Honestly, idk what people are even talking about. I'm not a proffesional game reviewer, but it takes less then 2 braincells to realise that this game is awesome. I really can't wait for 0.4!!
Most beautiful game ever. It´s easily in my top 3
Great work! Real diamond in the rough. Looking forward to the next update!
Just came here to try this game but I didn't know that someone is crying in the comments because there's no one agreeing with him/her.
Yep. Seriously, can't they just enjoy the game? It’s a 🌽 game, not a debate. Plus it's still enjoyable. Right?
Yeah, if you dislike the game just don't comment or at least don't insult the hard work that the author put into developing the game.
agreed, though i enjoy pissing off those types since watching them grasp at straws makes me laugh.
though, maybe im just a tiny bit evil for enjoying bullying bullies and incendiary fools
