Custom Brothel (v0.8.1)

Dunno why but the game always force close when I try to play it on mobile, descendants of the forest works fine though

This game seems like it could be interesting in theory but it doesn't seem like its viable to reach that point.

At game start and speed 3 you spend ~6 minutes out of 10 doing nothing (which remains the case for a couple of weeks when you get this down to 5 minutes out of 10).  The point at which people start experience discomfort from lack of feedback is measured in units less than seconds.  

There are almost no viable paths and the viable paths don't seem to work well ( you need one Male and one female worker and you need to hire nobody else (unless the have a wider client selection than your current hire in which case you want to swap them out as soon as they surpass them in level) and open no new rooms or you can't pay your weekly bills (because focusing on maximising level is the only way to make money). Even this will only get you through Month 2 because the best way to increase fame is to open more rooms but that's too expensive (you don't have enough clients that hiring workers for them is worth the loss of XP). 

No investments other than room upgrades are financially viable (it would take spending 2 000 in the shop to pay for the Level 1 -> Level 2 upgrade (I miscalculated this one, pre-edit , this is a net gain but it would take about 5 weeks to pay off ), for the hospital, you will probably not reach the point you can actually do street battles before you get an inevitable game over due to money (the lowest level I've seen is 12 and you're going to be ~level 9 at the end of month 1)). 

Advertising does not pay for itself until you're making multiple 1000s per day. The hiring desk is absolutely not viable in the first month (which is about 5 hours worth of real time).

Essentially every action you take is a money trap.

TL;DR: This game needs a serious accelerator pedal, either the base client rate needs to be turned up or the speed increased to ~x6 or (probably) both. The speed would only help with the boredom, increasing the client rate significantly would make it viable to hire extra staff in the early game which would create a virtuous cycle where the extra rooms and room upgrades increase fame at a more natural rate. 

is there some sort of debug or cheat menu or mode?

how do i get characters to accept my invite to my home

Your installation instructions are incomplete. And your file naming of the download files are confusing.

Game does not run, error about some vxace missing. Is the xp and ace older files or did you upgrade on run time packages. Or are those the rtp.

If I need to install additional stuff, that is needed in installation instructions, and better yet, also in game description near downlaod button.

I do not understand why a self-extractor. You could rename next version as such. like v9.selfextract.exe - and use a decent one. I can repack that with 7z to 66mb self extract instead of 83. The only reason to use a self extractor is for those that would have trouble to extract from your archive. Most just use zip format for that reason, not because it is any good for compression.

I tried the zip first and because of the error, then the exe. I do not understand the differences between those, as the exe is a self extractor, so I would assume is has the same content as the zip. But in your zip there are over 6000 files.

Anyways, will try later. Brothel games are rare.

A buggy nightmare to play. The Y key doesn't bring up anything. After clicking on the phone and selecting the help menu. I get stuck and can't exit out the menu. I have to alt-tab out and close the window and start all over again.

Can you release a version of the game in zip or rar form with all the files so it will work on joyplay?

Do this work on JoyPlay?

I have one other recommendation. No business I know of kicks a customer to the curb if they come into the place of business just before it closes.

Any Prostitute that starts working with a client before the end of the day, should be allowed to continue working until they finish that client. Right now, if anyone is not finished by the end of the day, the interaction is just terminated.

Not only is it lost income, but in the real world, bad business. Obviously, you shouldn't allow someone to fill the queue after end of day, but finish clients already being worked on seems appropriate.

I'm having problems using the game not at full screen, because the extremes of the screen are cut out.

You include codes for a lot of these and yet it's not clear what some codes are. What is Di, MC, or FC? what are c-boys?

Currently, if you go out to the street you can only recruit for you to work.  When I go outside, why can't you send them inside to work with an unoccupied worker? I'm forced to service them even if there is a mismatch between gender and preference.

A couple of other problems have also emerged.

1) There's a LOAD choice on the first sceen, but no way to save the game.

2) I made the mistake of changing it to full screen and wasn't able to change it back. I tried full screen simply bc the windowed version is tiny, and unable to be resized. But, even overwriting the game doesn't change the fact that I'm now forced into full screen with no way to change it.

3) My preferences are randomly generated, why can't I choose some of my preferences? I could see limiting my choices, but just randomly being forced into a preference is unfortunate.

How much transforming is there? Will c-boys and male herms transformations be possible? Will mpreg be possible?

running in to this crash issue after getting a few months in

edit: I found what caused this, its because i turned on the "increase client rate" in publicity

Every time I play the game crashes not sure what to do. Has multiple errors 

It's a little annoying that this game doesn't work with a mouse

It doesnt seem to work
