Originally downloaded and played it for free, but unfortunately even with it already downloaded and in my library here I was unable to download the update or even just redownload the game. Was a bit sad at first but then I just went to steam and bought it flat out. Its an amazing game and the dev is doing a great job, so I decided to help support the Dev in whatever little way I can. Keep up the great work. :)
I read somewhere a while back that this was changing from free to be a payed game, and that if you already owned and played it when it was free that you can get the updates for free once it goes payed, is this correct or do you have to pay even if you played it before when it was free ?
I'm wondering because I got it for free before it went payed and really enjoyed it but I can't get the updates for free, is there something specific that you have to do to get them for free ?
I wasn't sure how this works on itch at the time, so my recommendation was to buy it for the lowest amount possible, which was $1 iirc, turns out that that was what was necessary for itch to recognize that you "own" the game.
The next update is probably either still in the planning stages, or has just begun being worked on. As far as I can tell, BM_Rec is working on this game solo, which is a tremendous task. Give it some time, Rome wasn't built in a day after all.
I cannot get this to run on Mac.. an older version worked but that was several months ago. I usually have to right click > open twice but this time nothing happens. Usually I also have to run the .rpy file but there isn't one in the folder.
show package content on app - contents - macOS - open badmemories executable file
or
Open terminal. Paste (with a space at the end): xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine Drag the app onto the terminal, so you get something like xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Users/<username>/Games/BadMemories/Bad-Memories.app
Run that command. The app should now open properly every time without needing to locate and run the internal executable.
Please note that I don't have a mac myself, all of the above is gathered from comments of other people who played the game on mac.
Hey BM_Rec Im sad that I had to buy the game but I love this game since you I first played it back when you first made it I bet im going to enjoy it now
Just finished the newest update! Yeah, I can safely say I still love this game! I was very happy to see things move along with Rachel, Ellie is still a pure cutie and Jada is as naughty as ever! some odd turns but every story needs them.
love the special renders as well, so well thought out and in my opinion very detailed. shows alot of passion! I was sifting through the renders and just realized who Em and Jess were haha. and I think I know who "Precious" is wink wink. confident in my guess but still 50/50 between if Im right or wrong lol.
Hi, I fully realize I'm posting this question to the itch website, but it seemed like the easiest way to ask...
I was looking at this title on Steam (again, I'm aware this is itch) and in the information on Steam it lists having "Full" English Audio.. which is usually voice acting in visual novels,
Is there any voice acting in Bad Memories?? I watched a couple of videos of people playing the first few minutes and I didn't hear any, but thought maybe they were playing an older version? I assume its either that or simply the Steam store page is incorrect? Thanks in advance, heard good things about the title and the character modeling looks nicely done, I just wanted to ask about the voice overs/acting before purchasing.
No, there is no voice acting, but steam recommended to add it if in any case there will be VA in the future, and since I'm thinking about it for a while, I added it to the steam page.
Right on, the character design looks pretty well done, so definitely looking forward to giving it a shot, and would love to see VA in a future update.. Not trying to name drop another title, but I plaid Lust Theory when it was released which has it (I actually think they just hired two women to do all of it but it actually works seeing as you're never hearing them talk at the same time) but it really added to the story immersion.
I think if you add VA, it's vital that it be high quality. I'm sure we're all familiar with, for example, anime dubs where the voice acting just doesn't fit and spoils the show.
I hopped here to check for an update and was not disappointed. I will say with the change to paid, a demo version would do well for promotion. This game is fantastic and if I had anything to spare right now would definitely buy it in a heartbeat.
And congratulations, I made an account just to comment since if I were to buy it I'd need one anyway.
If you donated more than $1 USD before the price change, then in your "my collections" page, at the top there is an area showing games that you own. There is a download link there.
If you did not donate at least $1 USD before the price change, then you sadly don't "own" the game because you didn't pay for it, and will need to pay the $8.99 price to gain access to the new updates.
having the game via free download is not the same as having the game after donating for the download. let me clarify this a bit more, and i apologize in advance if something i say comes across in an offensive manner.
downloading the game via the "free download" option doesn't mean you own the game, it means that you have downloaded it as "freeware". downloading the game after donating the minimum amount set for the "purchase" of the game means that you now own a copy, as you technically paid for it.
sadly this was not made very clear in the update titled "Update News and Future Pricing" due to the fact that the creator was not entirely sure how itch.io handled things when it came to price changes. BM_Rec was not entirely sure about the effects of the price change, as evidenced by one of his replies to a previous comment. this is a direct quote from BM_Rec that you can find below if you feel like looking for it.
The updates will still be free, but what I said was that I'm not sure how this works on itch and if you wanted to make sure that you keep getting the updates for free it's best to buy the game as long as you can choose the price yourself.
I'm still not a 100% sure tbh, but I guess if you can't download the update you'll have to buy the game.
do you know any fix? i got the game and my 0.6 save files keep crashing but i just push 'ignore' and it works for anywhere between 2 and 20 minutes but then it crashes again
Like in I mentioned in my previous post, it's best to start a new game. You can activate "skip seen" in preferences if you don't want to read all again.
hey..umm this game need pay to play right? so i need pay $8.99USD right...then i just want to comfirmed this ..i just need to pay once or per month? or i need to pay every single update
Hey dev, been playing this since 0.4 and will almost certainly be buying this. Just out of curiosity though, how many updates do you think you'll be able to fit into the game, with your current thoughts on the work? Also, personally i have taken quiet the liking to catherine and i was really wondering if you intend to build much more on her as a person in the story.
Doesn't matter how long it takes for the updates to me since i fill my time as needed, but i am looking forward to your work! High quality isn't always good work, but yours is 5/5 :)
I'd say the story is about 2/3 done by now, so two more updates is the absolute minimum + Rachels story, but it's more likely that the next updates are a bit smaller since the work on the last one was hell and I don't want to go through that again, so it'll probably be about 3 - 5 smaller updates.
Glad to say i purchased it and have enjoyed the new scenes very much. The scenes with Rachel are excellent, hanna is wonderfully done and i enjoy seeing more of kat in both meaning of it.
I shall await patiently for any further updates, ill also go ahead and give Weird a shot too!
I just downloaded the update to play the new stuff in the main story (I've never touched Rachel's Story part so idk if there's any issue with that) but very soon after the start of the new content the game errored for me, when Rachel was telling me the girls weren't up yet but she made breakfast for the two of us I got this:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

you need to start from day 9 when the "Day 9" text pops up on screen (when waking up early in the morning), or simply start a new game. That's because I've changed some variables to get the new map working properly.
ah okay cool ty ty I'll try that. I made a save during the section that said "hey you finished what's here" for .6 version. Can I roll back from there to the start of day 9 or does the games ability to go back not go far enough to reach the start of day 9? Just want to know if I need to start a new playthrough or not at this point lol.
yep it did a weird, it created a autosave right there at the start of chapter 10 and when I used it for some reason it didn't error. really liked the 3way great animation. Glad I got to know more about Katie too.
I wanted to buy this via Steam since paying on itchio for some reason doesn't work for me, but it just says it's not available in my region. I have vpn and tried a bunch of countries and it just keeps saying it isn't available. Where is it even available on steam?
I haven't found the cause for this yet, and it only seems to affect very few peoply, but what you can do is: show package content on app - contents - macOS - open badmemories executable file.
Okay I paid the 9 bucks to get the new update and I've downloaded the Droid version twice now but it just keeps telling me I can't open the file. Did I just waste 9 bucks?
First of all, you can download all version, not only the android version, so if you have a computer or tablet you could try that. Second, and more importantly "can't open the file" is not really anything I've seen on an android. "Can't install", yes, that usually happens when there's not enough (temporary) space to unpack/install the apk, you usually need 3-4 times as much space as the .apk file size, but I think 5gb is the minimum. Again, this is just for unpacking/installing, the game itself doesn't need that much space. You also need to enable "install from unknown sources", otherwise it just won't let you install the game.
Yes I am aware of all that. Firat of all, I don't have a tablet or PC to put it on. second of all, I am well aware of how it works when you don't have space, as you said it gives you an error while trying to install the file and I dont think my 79gb of free space is an issue. Third of all, I have 3rd party install turned on as I have downloaded numerous games from itch without issue, all apk's (including one just 6 days prior). So I guess to answer my question, yes I am just out 9 bucks.
For all of you who may be wondering, if you only added the game to your collection but did not donate at least $1 USD, then no, the updates are not free. If you donated at least $1 USD, then you technically purchased it, and there is a download button on your "my collection" page that allows you to get the updates. I double checked this myself by making another account and adding the game to my collection but not donating for it, and that account does not have the download button on the collection page, but this account (which I did donate on) does.
Just bought it, I was about to do so before you talked about the problems you had with steam. I love what I have seen so far, and I am sure that the final version will be even better. Keep up the good work!!
cheers mate , cant wait to play 0.7 finally! i paid you $10.99 because i enjoyed this game so much the last time ive played it..... and i know $2 tip on top isnt much but i wanted to give you something extra instead of only a comment in return that your work is brilliant. i hope you appreciate, keep your work going dude i will always have a look on your latest updates!
Don't mind supporting devs where it is due, but as someone on a fixed income due to a chronic disability 5-10 dollars is actually a lot to spend on something that isn't neccesary.
Devs that lock their content behind a paywall really irk me. Either make it pay to play, or do a delayed release for non patreon members, but making it impossible to obtain the rest of the story without paying is a low and dirty move.
I may be wrong, i may just not see it somewhere, so correct me if I am wrong, but that is exactly what is seems like is going on here.
You know what irks me? People who complain and outright insult others while not even having the decency to read the news right above their post, news that are available there for more than 2 months for anyone to read. Even reading some of the posts here would have propably enlightened you.
sorry not trying to made any one mad just gave my opinion that's all nor if you got hurt or something I'm really sorry. But try to think it my way too I'm one of those how don't have any money or something then what options do I have? I am sorry to say but no other option then piracy which I don't do or don't want to or even not appreciate doing so,in conclusion I/We kinda feel left out. BTW I love your work and even now I don't own or have the game so I don't know what's happening in the story rn.
Then don't buy it, nobody is forcing you, people like you really piss me of, are you seriously complaining about 10 dollars?
I'm not going to correct you, but try to make a game as good as this and then don't want a single thing in return, I would say that would be pretty hard for you.
Maybe I would undersatnd if the game was short or bad, but this game is actually good, and pretty long.
If you had been keeping up with news and announcements, it was made clear that he was going to go to a fixed price because of Steam connections. He also made it clear that if you bought it beforehand (for as little as $1 USD I might add), then you could always download the newest version here with no additional fee. I have a tight budget as well, and decided that access to a great WIP game like this one was worth at least contributing a small amount to the dev. For less than the cost of one soda, I have access to the newest releases, and I appreciate the fact that the dev was even willing to let people play it for free in the first place.
Bro i am aware but you know what i live in a country where a dollar is about 180 price so i will have to spend like 2000 money to get this and if you think i am wrong so calculate it your self PKR is my country money. I am sorry to say but i don't own that much money or something i am still in 9th class so there is no other way to get money by working cauz my parrents don't allow me
Soooo....whats the real reason now? Chronic disability payments being your only income or you're still a child in highschool and your allowance from mommy and daddy is your only income?
Hey dev. Got the game while it was still free. Do i need to pay for the game now if i want the updates ? I know the update post said they'd be free, but I can't see an option to update.
The updates will still be free, but what I said was that I'm not sure how this works on itch and if you wanted to make sure that you keep getting the updates for free it's best to buy the game as long as you can choose the price yourself.
I'm still not a 100% sure tbh, but I guess if you can't download the update you'll have to buy the game.
If you only added it to your collections, there is no download button shown on your collections page. If you paid for the game at all, there is a download button on collections page, which is how you get the newest version without having to pay again.
A Unified Payment Interface (UPI) is a smartphone application that allows users to transfer money between bank accounts. It is a single-window mobile payment system developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).
I made a lengthy explanation about how and why the pricing changes, also gave a lot of time and oportunity to buy it for the lowest amount possible on itch. Sorry mate, but that one goes on you^^
Oh fucking hell. I'm glad this isn't abandoned. I've literally found probably 100+ Masterpieces like yours then after v1.4 v4 etcetera Boom. Abandoned. It's always the greatest fear to find something Truly Amazing and then .....
If you buy it on Steam then it's for Steam only, if you buy it here it's for here only. Right now Steam has a bit more story, but the next update will make them the same.
I absolutely love this game, so rich and indepth! i have been waiting oh so patiently for the next chapter, i really hope it comes soon! I really wanna see the MC take command of the house hold and make Rachel his personal love pet!!!

Thanks a lot, see my answer to the post below for some insight.
Merry Christmas!
I read somewhere a while back that this was changing from free to be a payed game, and that if you already owned and played it when it was free that you can get the updates for free once it goes payed, is this correct or do you have to pay even if you played it before when it was free ?

I wasn't sure how this works on itch at the time, so my recommendation was to buy it for the lowest amount possible, which was $1 iirc, turns out that that was what was necessary for itch to recognize that you "own" the game.
So is there anyway I could get the updates for free, or would I have to pay.
Updates are still free, it's just the game itself that isn't free anymore.
I just started playing and love this game to pieces. I have to say it's my number 2 NSFW game of all time
When is next update?
The next update is probably either still in the planning stages, or has just begun being worked on. As far as I can tell, BM_Rec is working on this game solo, which is a tremendous task. Give it some time, Rome wasn't built in a day after all.
I cannot get this to run on Mac.. an older version worked but that was several months ago. I usually have to right click > open twice but this time nothing happens. Usually I also have to run the .rpy file but there isn't one in the folder.
show package content on app - contents - macOS - open badmemories executable file
or
Open terminal.
Paste (with a space at the end):
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine
Drag the app onto the terminal, so you get something like xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Users/<username>/Games/BadMemories/Bad-Memories.app
Run that command. The app should now open properly every time without needing to locate and run the internal executable.
Please note that I don't have a mac myself, all of the above is gathered from comments of other people who played the game on mac.Gracias! That worked.
do i need to pay every time whenever you upload a new update?
No, it's a one time payment/purchase.
Hey BM_Rec Im sad that I had to buy the game but I love this game since you I first played it back when you first made it I bet im going to enjoy it now
I finally bought the game on steam and I've gotta say I don't regret my purchase it was worth the money
Getting a "can't download" message on my phone. Something is wrong with the android version
Works for me and looking at the stats, for a lot of other people, too.
Maybe there was a server problem, I'd just try again.
a quick question in ver 7.1 going to free to play ???
If you already own the game, all updates are free. If you do not own the game then no, you will need to buy it first.
Just curious if BM Rec has a Discord???
Yes, check out his creator page. https://bm-rec.itch.io
Just finished the newest update! Yeah, I can safely say I still love this game! I was very happy to see things move along with Rachel, Ellie is still a pure cutie and Jada is as naughty as ever! some odd turns but every story needs them.

I was sifting through the renders and just realized who Em and Jess were haha. and I think I know who "Precious" is wink wink. confident in my guess but still 50/50 between if Im right or wrong lol.
I really hope the next update will be out soon!

Oh? I look forward to that if you ever manage to make it a reality. Still a great game either way.

A great game, you can enjoy the whole story without making annoying choices.

And congratulations, I made an account just to comment since if I were to buy it I'd need one anyway.

Hopefully this clears things up for you.
Edit: fixed some wording issues for clarity.
The reason why I was confused was because the update post never said anything about paying if you already had the game
edited for clarity.

Why this keep happening??
This is so annoying
looks like you used an incompatible save-file. I'd start a new game if it keeps happening with other saves as well.
do you know any fix? i got the game and my 0.6 save files keep crashing but i just push 'ignore' and it works for anywhere between 2 and 20 minutes but then it crashes again
Like in I mentioned in my previous post, it's best to start a new game. You can activate "skip seen" in preferences if you don't want to read all again.
hey..umm this game need pay to play right? so i need pay $8.99USD right...then i just want to comfirmed this ..i just need to pay once or per month? or i need to pay every single update
It should be a one time purchase unless the dev decides to hike up the price for whatever reason. Once you own it, it'll be linked to your account.
It's a one-time purchase, updates are free.
that's good to know thnks ..
Hey dev, been playing this since 0.4 and will almost certainly be buying this. Just out of curiosity though, how many updates do you think you'll be able to fit into the game, with your current thoughts on the work?

ah okay cool ty ty I'll try that. I made a save during the section that said "hey you finished what's here" for .6 version. Can I roll back from there to the start of day 9 or does the games ability to go back not go far enough to reach the start of day 9? Just want to know if I need to start a new playthrough or not at this point lol.
I haven't tested it, but the game makes several autosaves, so there should be at least one that you can use.
yep it did a weird, it created a autosave right there at the start of chapter 10 and when I used it for some reason it didn't error. really liked the 3way great animation. Glad I got to know more about Katie too.
I wanted to buy this via Steam since paying on itchio for some reason doesn't work for me, but it just says it's not available in my region. I have vpn and tried a bunch of countries and it just keeps saying it isn't available. Where is it even available on steam?
Yeah it's blocked in germany, nothing I can do about it :(
Too bad, I was really enjoying 0.6 and was looking forward to the new update (and I already guessed that you wouldn't block any country on purpose)
I really like the game. It seems that the latest Mac version 0.7 does not start on my machine...
I haven't found the cause for this yet, and it only seems to affect very few peoply, but what you can do is:
show package content on app - contents - macOS - open badmemories executable file.
Okay I paid the 9 bucks to get the new update and I've downloaded the Droid version twice now but it just keeps telling me I can't open the file. Did I just waste 9 bucks?
First of all, you can download all version, not only the android version, so if you have a computer or tablet you could try that.
Second, and more importantly "can't open the file" is not really anything I've seen on an android. "Can't install", yes, that usually happens when there's not enough (temporary) space to unpack/install the apk, you usually need 3-4 times as much space as the .apk file size, but I think 5gb is the minimum. Again, this is just for unpacking/installing, the game itself doesn't need that much space.
You also need to enable "install from unknown sources", otherwise it just won't let you install the game.
Yes I am aware of all that. Firat of all, I don't have a tablet or PC to put it on. second of all, I am well aware of how it works when you don't have space, as you said it gives you an error while trying to install the file and I dont think my 79gb of free space is an issue. Third of all, I have 3rd party install turned on as I have downloaded numerous games from itch without issue, all apk's (including one just 6 days prior). So I guess to answer my question, yes I am just out 9 bucks.
If you have some old save files, try deleting them. If you use an older android version: update your android version...
That's all I can think of at the moment, I'll keep you updated.
I've uploaded a newer version using a newer engine version as well, hope this helps.
Yeah I see no change to the file or the issue. I suppose there are no refunds when it doesn't work?
I think you can request a refund by itch directly. If they have any questions, send them my way ;)
For all of you who may be wondering, if you only added the game to your collection but did not donate at least $1 USD, then no, the updates are not free. If you donated at least $1 USD, then you technically purchased it, and there is a download button on your "my collection" page that allows you to get the updates. I double checked this myself by making another account and adding the game to my collection but not donating for it, and that account does not have the download button on the collection page, but this account (which I did donate on) does.
Just bought it, I was about to do so before you talked about the problems you had with steam.
I love what I have seen so far, and I am sure that the final version will be even better.
Keep up the good work!!
Thanks :)
cheers mate ,
cant wait to play 0.7 finally!
i paid you $10.99 because i enjoyed this game so much the last time ive played it..... and i know $2 tip on top isnt much but i wanted to give you something extra instead of only a comment in return that your work is brilliant.
i hope you appreciate,
keep your work going dude i will always have a look on your latest updates!
have a nice week mate!
Thanks a lot, apprechiate it. I think you'll like it if you liked the previous versions, I got some really nice feedback already :)
Don't mind supporting devs where it is due, but as someone on a fixed income due to a chronic disability 5-10 dollars is actually a lot to spend on something that isn't neccesary.
Devs that lock their content behind a paywall really irk me. Either make it pay to play, or do a delayed release for non patreon members, but making it impossible to obtain the rest of the story without paying is a low and dirty move.
I may be wrong, i may just not see it somewhere, so correct me if I am wrong, but that is exactly what is seems like is going on here.
You know what irks me? People who complain and outright insult others while not even having the decency to read the news right above their post, news that are available there for more than 2 months for anyone to read. Even reading some of the posts here would have propably enlightened you.
But I get it, it's easier to just complain...
sorry not trying to made any one mad just gave my opinion that's all nor if you got hurt or something I'm really sorry. But try to think it my way too I'm one of those how don't have any money or something then what options do I have? I am sorry to say but no other option then piracy which I don't do or don't want to or even not appreciate doing so,in conclusion I/We kinda feel left out. BTW I love your work and even now I don't own or have the game so I don't know what's happening in the story rn.
Then don't buy it, nobody is forcing you, people like you really piss me of, are you seriously complaining about 10 dollars?
I'm not going to correct you, but try to make a game as good as this and then don't want a single thing in return, I would say that would be pretty hard for you.
Maybe I would undersatnd if the game was short or bad, but this game is actually good, and pretty long.
Man, you must hate demos then.
All that baiting XD
If you had been keeping up with news and announcements, it was made clear that he was going to go to a fixed price because of Steam connections. He also made it clear that if you bought it beforehand (for as little as $1 USD I might add), then you could always download the newest version here with no additional fee. I have a tight budget as well, and decided that access to a great WIP game like this one was worth at least contributing a small amount to the dev. For less than the cost of one soda, I have access to the newest releases, and I appreciate the fact that the dev was even willing to let people play it for free in the first place.
Bro i am aware but you know what i live in a country where a dollar is about 180 price so i will have to spend like 2000 money to get this and if you think i am wrong so calculate it your self PKR is my country money. I am sorry to say but i don't own that much money or something i am still in 9th class so there is no other way to get money by working cauz my parrents don't allow me
...and that's the easiest and fastest way to get banned from an adult game.
good on you BM_Rec, it's good to see that you stay actively participating in the posts and are proactive.
Soooo....whats the real reason now? Chronic disability payments being your only income or you're still a child in highschool and your allowance from mommy and daddy is your only income?
Just bought your product. It is probably going to be the only VN I will ever spend money on. Looking forward to playing the new content :)
Hey dev. Got the game while it was still free. Do i need to pay for the game now if i want the updates ? I know the update post said they'd be free, but I can't see an option to update.
The updates will still be free, but what I said was that I'm not sure how this works on itch and if you wanted to make sure that you keep getting the updates for free it's best to buy the game as long as you can choose the price yourself.
I'm still not a 100% sure tbh, but I guess if you can't download the update you'll have to buy the game.
If you only added it to your collections, there is no download button shown on your collections page. If you paid for the game at all, there is a download button on collections page, which is how you get the newest version without having to pay again.
i want to buy this game but i can only pay with UPI
help
What's UPI? And more importantly, why is my internet so lame rn?
A Unified Payment Interface (UPI) is a smartphone application that allows users to transfer money between bank accounts. It is a single-window mobile payment system developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).
Really been looking forward to the new update! Thank you!
I already had the game i have to pay bow?
Did you buy it before?
no i had it for a while.....good game though
I made a lengthy explanation about how and why the pricing changes, also gave a lot of time and oportunity to buy it for the lowest amount possible on itch. Sorry mate, but that one goes on you^^
Thanks for the compliment though :)
Don't tell me this is abandoned now... So many devs give up.........
literally just released a test version for his patreon supporters lol...
Oh fucking hell. I'm glad this isn't abandoned. I've literally found probably 100+ Masterpieces like yours then after v1.4 v4 etcetera Boom. Abandoned. It's always the greatest fear to find something Truly Amazing and then .....
When is the next version gonna release?
suggestion for the developer of this game maybe you should take precautions and save your work on an external hard drive just in case it happens again
What do you mean? I always make backups ô.O
Hi if I have the geme installed and in my list, is the future update still free for me I'm using android. Love the game can't wait for the update.
you have to buy the game for it to stay, and the next update will increase the price to the same as Steam
Hi again, I would buy the game but I'm not sure if I think wrong. If I buy it in steam is it only for steam or is it in itch.io too?
If you buy it on Steam then it's for Steam only, if you buy it here it's for here only. Right now Steam has a bit more story, but the next update will make them the same.
You buy it on Steam, you get it for Steam. You buy it on Itch, you get it for Itch.
Right now you can still buy the Itch version for 1 buck, the Steam version is $8,99, so I'd grab the Itch version as long as it's possible.
I absolutely love this game, so rich and indepth! i have been waiting oh so patiently for the next chapter, i really hope it comes soon! I really wanna see the MC take command of the house hold and make Rachel his personal love pet!!!
*Rachel the house elf
hehe the house submissive
The Lesbian route and dominating that stuck up ( )itch is one of my favorites. Shoving my fingers to her...and making her...
naughty hehe, never played the lesbian route. May have to give it a try
If you like watching Gorgeous girls lick pussy this is for you. If you don't, skip Female mc.
not to sound rude or stereo typical for being a bi guy, who wouldnt like to see that lol
So when the next update comes out, will it be the full game?
I really love this game. When do you think another update will be out?
Thanks, a few weeks from now.
