Idle brothel (18+)

hi man awesome game would really like to have an option to on/off the clothes though some girl outfit are super sexy!

What do you do at the start because I can't figure it out

Hey man! Awesome update! This comment is not only going to be about the issues I found, but also about some of the things I need to appreciate about this new update 0.3.

So first of all, the new house is really amazing. Everything makes more sense now, from the latina nurse having her own hospital room, to the lowered ceiling of the basement. It feels a lot better now, and the new staircase is a clever way to hide walking animations between floors.

The new customer interactions are really nice as well, however I feel like there should be upgrades to increase the speed of those appearing as well, as well as the income of how much they make you. Currently, it's just a nice little detail and don't really make profit. I'm getting trillions in tips, when I have octillions in my bank.

Secondly, the UI changes are really appreciated. The settings menu has been moved away, and the new house's front door is on the right so that the HUD doesn't overlap with it. Really clever. You've also changed the upgrade names which is a lot better. However, I feel like the upgrade system needs a little bit more clarity;

When you have multiple upgrades available, it's a little difficult to separate them. The only thing really separating them is the red text, so I would recommend adding thin outlines to the upgrade boxes themselves to make it more clear. The same for the upgrade names as well, because the name of the upgrade and green text share the same background, so it can feel like part of the same text, just discolored. Try to play around with this.

I also do like the new option to buy more employees at once, but it's not immediately clear what the choices mean. 50% could either mean 50% more employees to what you have, or using 50% of your total wealth to buy as many as you can. It becomes clear that it's the latter, however there is no clarification on how many you're actually buying, just how much you're spending. This feels like an oversight, especially when there's no option to sell employees to a lower round number.

As for the rest of the UI, I'm overall enjoying the changes. Zooming is now a lot easier, and the settings include a windowed mode, but there is a small issue with that. The UI elements adapt to the window size, so on larger scales like fullscreen, for example, the shop window either partially or completely obstructs both the currency/s counter, as well as the bank total. Furthermore, it wouldn't be a bad idea to clarify what this currency is, so I can stop calling it "currency".

Next up, I really like the changes to Amy. She's been called out in the game by name, and it now makes sense what it is. Also per my request I can no longer accidentally stop the minigame, and there's upgrades to make it more worthwhile. But maybe you were expecting this, there's issue here too:

Firstly, you can keep masturbating her even after the timer is over, with the orgasm meter filling up. I assume this to be a bug, because I sure don't profit from it. Also, I do know that I wanted her to appear more through upgrades, but this feels a little too frequent. I think better upgrades would've been ones that extend the timer of the minigame itself or one that clicks it for you, for instance. I'm not complaining though, it just feels a little unbalanced.

Secondly, her minigame can be started as she's walking away, just as long as her question mark is up and you're able to click on her. To add to this, the question mark lingers for a while after she's left, presumably because she's killed off further off-screen. But no, it doesn't seem intentional. Either make the minigame unobtainable right as she starts walking away, or make the question mark hover over her as she  leaves as a way to say "Wait, come back!". This was an exploit in the previous version too, but I used it to my advantage.

Thirdly, her dialog box pops up when you click on her again after restarting the game, making the text in it incorrect. Also the layer her minigame's on shouldn't take precedent over the settings menu, because it means you can't quit the game through it while it's up. Also the contrast on the timer could be better as the countdown is light pink with no borders, and the background is a light beige. Small things.

Now for some more general stuff, maybe even nitpicks. So firstly, I'm unsure of the 2x global multiplier upgrades as they feel a little too powerful, especially since you get so many of them. I got them while I had already got everything so I don't know how it affects gameplay, but I must imagine it speeds it up quite a lot. That's why I would've gone for a 50% increase, instead. 

Secondly, I'm really liking the house as I said, but there's some minor nitpicks I have with it. The shower still doesn't have a purpose, for instance. I assume you had planned to have a showering employee there at some point, or still do, but now it's just decor. Which is fine, decor is fine, but a shower like that sets expectations especially earlier on in the game. As for the basement, I love how low it is now, you can even fit a second floor under it. It looks so much better, in all the right ways. The only issue I have with it is the chandeliers which are not centered. It does add character, but it can feel a little off to some. The chandeliers are not centered on the top floor either, but you can't notice them as easily. 

More on the customers, I like that they walk in and masturbate, despite how little it nets me. It feels like a natural progression, but I think you could tweak some of the animation durations to better match how long it would take to reach climax. I don't think a few strokes is all it needs, and the cowgirl especially does it really fast considering how slow she's going. Also there seems to be a hard limitation of one customer in the house at a time, which could be the reason behind the short sessions. If you could have more people at the same time, you could have them stay in for longer, though there's probably a good reason this isn't already the case.

Aaaand lastly, the gear icon, as well as the X in the settings menu are off-center, just by a pixel or so.

Alright, I think that was it. Amazing update. You added a lot, tweaked a lot of things, and certainly improved the game by a lot. I don't have anything else to add now, just keep doing what you do best. Sorry for the longer text!

Any plans to release this on Steam? :3

would be nice to have somewhat of instructions, i'm assuming we can't do anything with the chicks yet, but if there is i would like someone to tell me, no rush

I actually really quite like this game. It's simple, but does what it says it does. However, I do have a lot of critique, so read what I have to say with that in mind, instead of thinking that I'm complaining, because I'd really like to see where this goes. I'm trying to list these in the order of importance.

So firstly, some UI changes. The settings button is way too big, and way too close to the shop for what it does. I found myself accidentally clicking it, so I would really recommend moving it to the corner, and making it an universal "gear symbol" instead to also make it smaller.

The settings themselves also lack a lot of things that a game like this needs. First of all, a windowed mode. This is the sort of game you want to move to the background, or another monitor, but currently that is impossible. Secondly, there's no clear way to exit the settings menu, so consider adding an X to the corner. Also, the "reset save" button is way too big too. Make it smaller and hide it to make it harder to accidentally press. Lastly, one optional thing is to have the currency be in scientific notation as a toggle, but currently it's not needed since you only go up to octillion or so.

As for some QOL changes, the zooming thing is a little weird, as someone else pointed out as well. I'd much rather have a dynamic experience with the scroll wheel, or if you stick with this way of zooming, make it easier to zoom out. The current method of pressing the arrow button on the corner is way too inconvenient. I would bind this to a button like the right mouse button, since it's currently unused. The same button could be used for selling employees too, for example. Just try to have the player have more control over the game.

Speaking of control, I'd like to see more cosmetic changes. I'm only asking for something like the option to change the wallpaper, some rugs, and overall making the "brothel" seem like yours. The location for this cosmetic shop could be where the current settings location is, for instance. Something else you could find in this shop could be a sign on the house you can rename, time of day changes, or any other miscellanious thing like a font colour change. Basically a platform for personalising your game, one that you can easily expand in the future.

As for the upgrade system, it's intuitive and easy to understand, but it's a little repetitive since all new employees follow the same algorithm and overall pattern. What I suggest, and this is right out of cookie clicker, is custom names for these upgrades, with descriptions to match. That way you're also looking forward to the upgrades, and not just the "employees". Additionally, try to incentivise buying more employees of the same type by locking the upgrades behind them. There's no real incentive to get 20+ of the employees, since you get all the upgrades as soon as you unlock it. As for what I mean by the custom names, here's a few examples:

Mirror model's 2x upgrade could be called "shinier mirror", where the 10x upgrade could be "perfect reflection"

Dildo lover's 2x upgrade could be "dildo upgrade" (to reflect the change) and the 10x upgrade "more durable lube", rspectively.

I understand why this is not something you've done, but I would really like attention paid here, as well. It really does add a lot, and a certain level of personality. I also would like to see some more general upgrades, some that don't just affect the employees. Maybe something like a +5% increase on all profits, Amy appearing more and giving more, or something dynamic like getting +1% more profit on employee X for every 10 instances of employee Y. Which again, incentivises getting more employees and not just sticking to the 20 or so. Really do think about this, since this again would add a lot, and you have unlimited possibilities.

Now some smaller stuff, bugs maybe. Firstly, some of the white employees' faces are brown. I understand it could be a shading issue, or something else. Either way, it doesn't look as good as it could. This mostly affects the twerqueen and the mirror model (and strap-on by extension), but it is noticeable. Secondly, I would really like it if you couldn't prematurely stop the Amy minigame by misclicking on the collect button before the timer runs out. In fact, it shouldn't even pop up before that. Unless of course this is intentional to make it harder. Also, I would like some clarification in-game on what that minigame does. I have questions like "does clicking certain body parts matter for profit" and "Who even is this". It's only by Necrilem's comment that am I able to call her that. And just one more thing; The roof of the brothel is too wide, it should stop at the tip of the triangle. Instead, it protrudes unnecessarily. Simple fix.

But other than that, you've got a really solid game going on. There's probably something else I could've mentioned too since I do have experience with idle games, but I couldn't fit it all here. Contact me on Discord (wibiz9000) if you want more help, but I think that you'll have your hands full with these considerations. That said, most of these are suggestions, but there are some things in there that the game could really do with. However, that's for you to decide. And just like I said, try to take what I said as critique, because I still do want to see this game advance. 

Been playing for quite a while now until it became basically a waiting game.

Few suggestions here.

- Free camera panning and zooming instead of this click on zones (with really weird hitboxes), I sometimes accidentally click out of the Amy mini-game because of how zooming works right now

- Overall income/sec displayed

- % of income contribution to overall on individual listings

- move Amy, she is often covered by having "shop" open, so she is easy to miss

- So far I don't really see how this is a brothel? No customers are going in, no rooms, no one doing the deed (could upgrade/change/unlock positions starting by caressing into service into penetration with allowing you to switch depictions freely after unlocking

I cannot recommend enough to play Magic Archery and Tower Wizard (On steam). They are short and concise incremental idle/clickers that can be completed without much "leaving it on in the background" with a lot of good QoL and features that can inspire smooth gameplay experiences. They improve on things that other idlers make players lose interest in them a lot.

Can you please explain where the saves are stored? I can't reset progress and it's concerning that I can't find where the save is.

EDIT: It saves in the registry. Avoid for now.

found that the game crashes at 635 units on any girl (then again I doubt anybody could make it that far. I cheated and I still couldn't upgrade that far on the bouncer)

overall, a pretty good game, but damn is the grind heavy. I maxed out each unit instantly using cheat engine and it still took me like an hour just to get the strap on.

(also, if anyone else wants to use cheat emulator for this,  you can only really increase unit count. I would give a table, but the addresses change every time I open the game so your gonna have to find them yourself. don't increase the value to beyond 633, as going beyond will crash. I cant for the life of me find the adress for money, so tough break.)

Art is really nice too :)

The income text blocks usage of the Employees button.

Downstairs preview wont go back upstairs without exiting preview mode entirely.

The girl on the top right table is the Flexer, right? Where is the Choker? I didn't look for a while but worked out all the others to that point. I got up to secretary before I stopped.

The other commenter was spot on about save/art.

Pretty decent, though, that lack of ability to save makes it only worth playing once and for a few minutes. Good pixel work, though.
