Mina's role in the story has ended, right, because I don't see any updates about her Or what?

spoiler:










I hope there’s a way to bring Edd back to life; I want to know more about him and his struggles and he deserves more.

Sorry but I have a problem when I want to check out the selfies. I don't really understand but it went error when it was running a code. Yeah I don't really understand. What should I do

How do I get past the stage of the store girl? Will she remain unavailable for a period of time after having sex, or am I making a mistake in choosing, I don’t know?

I skipped the BJ and sex. After that, I could continue o

Update today or not?

Today's new update is correct

Hey man, love the game so far! Overall, what do you think the percentage is of completion? Just wondering how much is left before the story concludes. Thanks!

(-1)

I'd say we're in the last quarter of the game.  I'd expect based on the current status the final version to be around 0.28 and be done by around mid autumn next year, sans any bug fixes.  Could be wrong though.

(-1)

Excited and disappointed all at the same time. It's a very interesting story. Are you planning on making another game afterwards?

Also, I've notice the story events outpace the girls' events. I have plenty of events left but I'm at the end of the story so I can't continue. Is this by design?

Yes, and one of the bigger faults of the game as there's not enough time to go through all girls and all storylines.  Pick 3 or 4 and stick with them or you will run out of time.

I'm not the dev.

nice update!!

Played a bit of this after "Now & Then" and really enjoyed it. At this point though I think I'd rather wait for the full release (however far away that may be) and enjoy it all at once. Great work and good luck ILSP!

regarding 0.19, the one public on patreon, with two small logic issues:

story_other.rpy:6627: this should be "if marisa_end_bad_seen == "no":", otherwise the text makes no sense

story_combo.rpy:18: the two conditions blocks separated by 'or' are identical. in my game the scene triggered but you should take a look at the long list of and-chained variables

very nice release, thank you!

Just to let anyone thinking of playing this know, you absolutely have to download the fan mod from f95zone. It allows you to go through all the girls' stories. Otherwise you arbitrarily have a limit on the number of actions you can take before the story advances; you cannot see this limit, and you will receive scenes which imply you've advanced with girls you haven't had time to visit. Until the dev fixes this, the mod is necessary.

:-( such a waste of potential after Now & Then :-(

(+1)(-4)

A little harsh no? The concept is novel.

(+4)(-2)

not harsh, just as it is.

(-6)

It'd be better for you to shut up. if you don't like the concept of the game just leave, there's other people who enjoy the story.

(-4)

Damn, how many accounts do you have?

(+1)

all of them of course :D 

(+2)

The comment section is also kind of a review section, negative comments matter too lol

dm69 was kinda harsh, and didn't give us any sense of why he felt it was a waste of potential (all ears for this, btw if dm can help me decide whether or not to download), but it's not like complaining is against the rules

Your comment was a little out of pocket tho, which is where the dislikes are coming from. fwiw. I'd be surprised if a bunch of alts were involved

(+1)(-3)

thank you for information .,l,.

There a way to finish the character stories without getting the end of version scene? I want to see the rest of the story for the girls....

(+7)

A couple of bugs/issues.

When you allow Mina to become a remnant, her icon still lingers in the selection menu allowing you to keep pursuing her in the convenience store.  The same scene plays each time she is selected after turning.  Though nothing happens in this scene, it still costs you the day and can be repeated over and over.

Also, during Marisa's intro she is named Allison more than a couple of times when talking to the MC.

(+1)

Does this game have any connection with your other game? I noticed that there's that character from the clothing store in both games I liked it 😁

(+3)(-2)

Thanks for the update. Even if this game is still free when it's finished, there is no way I am not paying you money for it!

(+3)(-3)

thank you for the update! love the story line so far 

(+5)

Why is the MC not curious about the weird physics of the place? Go on top of the highest building, throw a stone up and see if it falls down again or up to the other down tacked on the sky?

(+5)(-1)

Hi dev is possible a harem ending??

(+5)(-1)

....they are dead.

(+3)(-4)

There could be something , but this is a good ways off before ending content is locked in. There are plans for threesomes, but that's some time before we get into that.

(+7)(-4)

ok i tryed it and must say that i did not expected so boring game from this dev...

if i will avoid cliches like stripper doesnt want be stripper and need be saved...or girl blackmailed by her sex tape, it is practicaly mix of short stories where u r forced to constantly hearing about other problems practicaly all time in game. after some time it started to be annoing.

After all if your will power is not decreased to zero by playing and hearing others bitching about their life, u will realize that u r hearing all that only to get rid of girls cause, well world ended and they r there only cause they need move out.

Little lost on 2 scenes in the gallery. Scene No 4 and 8 (both on the right side of the gallery) is locked and don't know how to unlock it. Anyone has the solution?

Great game btw, ILS. Loving the story. 

4 is Tina in the bathhouse and 8 is Marisa going back to her apartment after going to the bar. If you mean the far right of the gallery, with 5/10, that's two scenes for Mina if you avoid her bad ending.

There is a walkthrough you can check that's regularly updated on our Patreon.

Sorry, I mean scenes 5 and 10. Thank you

I see, so as long as you think with your pants, you can proceed with Mina's scenes. 

Can I assume the next update will be 1.0 and be the full game? AVNs don't always follow the normal game genre system....

(+1)(-1)

No, the next update will be 0.10.0. Much like Now & Then, this will have 24+ content releases.

(1 edit)

Thank you for the info. Merry Xmas and a prosperous new year! Thanks for all the hard work! Now and Then is a fantastic AVN, by the way!

(+1)

enjoyed now and then, but this one looks like no "room mate" "landlady" content or am i wrong?

(-2)

There is no "roommate" / "landlady" stuff in this one. There will be some unexpected "step-/ half-family" stuff later.

ok, will play later than, thank u for answer.

Would love to see more Elsewhere scenes, showing the weird bits of the world - not for plot reasons but just to experience more snippets of the strangeness.

(+1)(-1)

It's always funny to me to see what parts of the game people like. The Elsewhere parts were meant to give players content if they didn't want to play one girl in particular. We add a new one with every release. I may see about sneaking a few smaller ones in as we go.

Just played through the whole game in one sitting, can't wait for more XD

(+5)(-4)

You're doing it again, ILS! A strong. engaging plot with characters and relationships which feel real. No 2D stereotypes to be found here, and no boring mc. Just as in Now & Then, the mc and his story are central to the narrative, making the game so much more enjoyable by giving it real meaning. I can't wait to see how this turns out.

However, I was moved to leave a comment because there are two glaring issues that I think need to be addressed. The first is that you can't complete all the girls' events in one run! Obviously the player will want to see all the events - they are central to the game - and obviously you want the player to, so why would you prevent that? It's not like you are expected to do an X run and then a Y run for each girl or ending, like in Now & Then. On the contrary, the dialogue seems to expect you to progress with all of the girls! For example, the mc was talking about visiting Roe's home even though I hadn't had "time" to do so. After reaching the end of the update and realising I had been forced to miss a number of events, I had to load up a previous save to play them, in which I hoped I was far enough back that I still had "time" to do them all. But this didn't feel "canon",  because in my head the mc would of course progress them all. Please consider rectifying this.

Secondly, the mc is again cracking awful jokes and references during the sex scenes. This was easily the worst part of Now & Then, which was otherwise a brilliant game. Jokes during sex are almost always a turnoff; they pull you out of the mood, and I find myself trying to quickly skip through them so I can enjoy the scenes. There aren't many sex scenes yet, so this would be a great time to change the writing here.

what do u mean each girl ending? u literaly are there to get rid of them :D ending is that they will move out or fade no romance there for MC :D

(+1)

not sure if relevant but a short heads up: the variable mina_ch4_choice can stay at the default value of none if one has not enough points with her (set to bj or rame in the if part story_other::713++, but not set in else (::737).

as of 0.06 I don't see any issues, but if you need the variable later in the game something to keep in mind - none is the same as ramen but only when this scene played :)

(+1)

Tina's second 'other persons' scene can be triggered twice

the condition should be

if ( tina_story == 4 or tina_story == 5 ) and op_tina2 == "no":

(note the extra brackets, story_others::2057)

(+1)

Thanks for pointing these out. I'll look into correcting the code.

before I drop out of favour, are you even interested in such reports?

(+2)

I don't mind at all. TID is a lot more complex than Now and Then was, so I can't always test every possible variation of how people play. So, I don't mind when someone points out that something isn't working right.

(+1)

Yeah, there's one line of text impacted by this, so I corrected this for 0.07.0.

lovin this one so far im prob 20% through. this is getting me in the mood to do another play through of Now & Then.

(+2)(-2)

I'm so glad to see your writing style IS your writing style (hope makes since to you). This new game promises to be as good or better than Now and Then, which really, I didn't think could happen. Good luck, enjoying the trip on this one.

(+1)(-1)

Let's go new project ! \o/

(+1)(-1)

A promising start so far. Keep up the great work! 

(+2)(-1)

A promising start, looking forward to see the story unfold! I liked Now and Then a lot and hope this one will be at least as good.

And as I _always_ try to balance praise with (more or less warranted) negative feedback :P

The switch from "suddenly died w/o knowledge about the new situation" to "rescue the first soul" is rather fast, it feels like I missed a few paragraphs of backstory. Mira talks once or twice about the MC's new duty, he doesn't react to it and suddenly he knows exactly what to do in the bus: Talk with the old guy to lead him to the next world(?)

(+4)

While the dev may not officially support it I can verify for those interested that there is a Linux version that gets downloaded with the Windows version and it runs fine for me so far.

(+2)

Yeah, the PC build is supposedly PC/Linux compliant, but I don' t promote it because I don't have a way to properly test it.
