just thought i would drop a review/ stream of thoughts i had for the game here.
kinda unique in the sense that it's almost more of a visual novel movie/ show more than an interactive game and i think that's more of a plus than a down side honestly. it looks like there was a token effort at the start to make choices that really didn't matter before giving up those not too far in and i kind of appreciate that.
i generally like to experience everything games like these have to offer and i bounce between the various girls but in the more sandbox style ones the author can't always account for what you have seen yet so scenes with the various girls tend to be very isolated from each other with very little cross over. and the ones with choices tend to only effect if your going to miss content or not.
this style cuts out the nonsense of the choice system and the linear style allows the author to tie all the girls stories very closely together. of course this style also lives and dies on how well the author can tell their story and sell their characters cause that's all it's selling and i honestly think they did a fantastic job.
the main plot isn't gonna win any awards for how interesting it is but does a solid job being the frame work for the character interactions and porn. the characters i think are the biggest selling point here the introductions the characters have and how they get involved with the protagonist can feel a bit forced and odd like the "cat" girl getting into him by sitting in his lap and getting him hard and then she is just like "this is now my life goal".
but once they get established just watching them interact is just a joy to watch. all the girls feel unique both visually and in their personalities and just seeing them react to various events and changes in relationship status or clash/ make friends with each other is a lot of fun.
the tone is very slice of life with very little drama or danger and what little there is just shakes up the status quo more than anything. the split between the school life and work feels really odd like it's half adult life and half highschool life and if i were to guess the school was added to make the cast interact with characters they normally wouldn't interact with naturally.
i like the pacing quite a bit giving just enough time of romance fluff and everyday life for each girl while also keeping the plot going at a good pace. i actually find some of the most interesting thing about romance is how it affects their day to day life and interactions with other people and this game is loaded with that so it scratches that niche itch for me.
it's definitely highlighted in the description but i will add for emphasis this is a highly male dom fetish story. both in and out of the bedroom the male lead makes sure he is very in charge of every situation and in general will act how most dudes imagine their best self being. don't mistake the male dom for being super hard core bdsm stuff even if their is some of that cause the tone is actually extremely wholesome.
i actually think the male dom fetish is criminally under represented in this style of game so it's pretty refreshing to see. i can also see a lot of attention to detail from the author to try and make the girls more real looking by adding things like pores, some rough texture to the shaved pubes area and a bit of meat curtains on the vaginas. but i do think they go over board with the wrinkles/calluses on the knees and elbows cause i am twice their age and i still got smoother skin there than they do. it doesn't ruin it or anything but it's definitely noticeable.
overall it was a great experience and i highly recommend it to anyone reading this. i'm sad i'm all caught up and it will probably be more than a year till i see more as i let the updates stack. cudos to the author cause you did some great work here.
** just a quick edit to mention i do think the girl introduction/ getting more involved get much better from sarah onward. not sure if that is just the author getting better at writing or just having that established cast gives them more room to let the new ones breath for their introductions but i thought i would bring it up regardless.
Thanks, that's an awesome review! And just to answer the very last point: while I would say my writing certainly has improved over the course of making the game, it's more just having room to breathe. Same with the Akatsuki introduction you mentioned previously actually; in the early content I felt a lot of pressure to make things move and get things established so as not to bore the reader, meaning the first three girls were more rushed than I would like. Especially Lucy; in hindsight I would have liked to take things much slower with her, and go deeper into the story with her mother.
One of the best harem stories I have seen. The concept is just within the limits of what we can suspend for disbelief, it allows the storyline to really take hold and allow the reader to get immersed. The storyline itself is engaging, and I am looking forward to what shapes up next. The only danger I could foresee on the horizon is possible side character bloat, but the author themselves would be the best judge on how many characters you can juggle along with the story, so I will defer to them.
This has no right whatsoever to be this excellent as a work of art. The primary theme of caring for hurt people, be they desperate, neglected, afraid, isolated, whatever it is, caring for hurt people through food (philosophically the sustenance of life), meaning using food to get them to open up to being cared for (which is a primary part of treating trauma of any variety), then using food as the gateway to seeing the world in reverse as in having them make the food to care for others so they understand what was done for them and why, which is a primary component to building trust.
This then weaves into the primary conflict of leadership and use of power and institutional change. The most important moment of this is when the most likable person with that power refers to Mr. Takemura as Mr. Wong, despite little to no narrative importance. Why is that so important? It's worth considering, but I won't ruin the opportunity for some contemplation.
The story is fun for sure I enjoy it very much. I love how you turned Victoria into one of the harem and her whole attitude flips. But my fav charchter is Lucy just something about her attitude. And she's gorgeous to boot. Rachel has my eye as well. Can't wait for more I'm an android user. And can't wait for a part 3. Please
I became so invested in the story that I legitimately ended up staying up all night playing! I can't wait for more, this is one of the best VN's out there in my opinion, the scenes and animation are amazing, but the story has me enthralled!
I was never going to dl this. Silly toonporn tits, so sick of that sh*t!
I don't remember dling but so glad I did. I have been waiting for latest instalment eagerly.
The characters really hooked me. Totally. Even the story had me in and I'm waiting for what's next.
Liked Lucy straight away. Thought I'd never like Victoria but now one of my faves. Akatsuki and Sarah were a great breath of fresh air, not having toonporn tits! A&S, easily the funniest and probably my fave girls.
Can't wait to see what happens next (haven't had chance to look at latest yet). You've got a real talent.
I love the blue and pink, by the way. No unneeded distractions nor unnecessary work for you.
Only gripe, didn't get to see Akatsuki take the plug in detail! And surely she should have had plug with tail!! ;)
Hopefully preggers will be optional and not HAVE to?
This is the first time I have ever commented on a game. Signed up just so I could say thank you!
Thank you.
Good luck and hope to see much more from you in the future.
I am eagerly awaiting updates to find out just WHAT her deal is!! I am just so invested in the characters and story now and am so sad I hit the end of the current build, I wanted it to just keep going damnit!
Unfortunately not. I looked into it when the free membership thing came out a few months ago, but patreon requires all adult content to be locked behind paid membership.
I know the MC is primarily a Male Dom, but not sure if he is exclusively a male dom. What I like about the MC is that he clearly desires to find (and appropriately reciprocate) each female's kink and love language. The question that I am curious about:
Will Female Domination ever be implemented as a kink for one of the girls? Only reason I ask is because all the current girls clearly show some form of a submissive nature, and I think it would be interesting to see a relationship dynamic of a more non-submissive female played out with the MC. (Akari or Elizabeth, maybe?)
I realy enjoy this game. Great story of MC, the Foundation familys story in backround.... amazing.... I like, that each girl has her own personality. I would realy love to see Rachal traped somwhere in cellar and spanked to cry. (she deserves it :) ). I wish you good luck
With pregnancy planned a long ways off, I was curious if there was ever going to be any planned time-skips?
Reason I ask is because I know the MC has already hinted at attending culinary school alongside Akatsuki. Pending MC dropping out of 3rd year, this would at least be somewhere around Day 200+. I am not sure if you have planned content for every day between Day 25 and when culinary school starts (honestly that would be impressive). That is, unless culinary school attendance is post-main storyline and would be a part of the epilogue (you do not have to answer this, mostly just pointless ramblings on my part)?
Yes, timeskips have been confirmed by Cosy. As the MC has said, weddings (and pregnancy) are years away in game. Even with time skips, that is also years way in dev time.
Oh man, yea you're right littlextiger. The MC claims to not even consider marriage until they are at least 21, which is 3 years (or Day 1095) away. I use the word "claims" because let's be honest, on Day 1 they also "claimed" to not be interested in getting involved with any girls and look where he is now on Day 25, lol.
What would happen if one or two girls get pregnant earlier? After all, each girl has a different personality, bond with the player character, desire, and perspective on sex. Allowing a girl who is more passionate about the player character to engage in dangerous sexual behavior first, and then wait until her belly cannot be hidden before revealing the fact that she is pregnant to others, can also highlight the character's personality traits, make the player character determined to get married, and promote the plot of other girls competing to become pregnant for the player character,
Fantastic game! Will for sure subscribe on subscribestar soon. Hope it gets updated for many more years, the story and character development is very good!
But for now brought on Itch.io too, as just saw it was possible to buy it.
Thank you! And to everyone else commenting, too! I'm kinda hesitant to respond to every comment now, which sucks, but I really do appreciate all of your support.
I love u dev for being so down to earth. You are the best dev ever. We really appreciate ur efforts. U don't have to reply every time. We can understand. We'll support u always dev. Take love.
Found this game back around the first FF party and played it through repeatedly. I couldn't get it out of my head. I've been avidly following it ever since. Cosy is a fantastic writer and has created a truly magnificent novel. Even without the pictures, 210k words is very definitely novel territory! But the renders are gorgeous as well.
This game may be a hidden gem, but it is definitely a diamond in the rough!
Glad to see the public-facing page back up, too! Welcome back!
Cosy got account suspended for replying to too many comments after last update so that could be why u are seeing this...you can join the discord cosy explains everything there if u haven't already...
Too bad, actually I think the game, the girls and the story are really well done...and I should say that I love the game...but, I like it better if you could decide who dominates who. Make more decisions. But otherwise really good work and keep up the good work.
Yes it is indeed a good read, but that's also the reason why bc it's a visual novel not a game there's not meant to be options, it's a story pre written , all the paths are pre chosen through trial and error by the dev to tget the story perfect, which I think Cosy dis a beautiful job...I personally wouldn't of chosen differently
Genuinely one of my all time favourite Visual Novels! Played more than a handful at this point and since I discovered this maybe a half a year back I've played it through three times and feel like I notice something new everytime.
The waits between updates are pleasant as well since you know how to close a chapter so damn well and that definitely deserves to be pointed out.
Every character has been deeply interesting from our great cast of main characters to our plentiful side characters and even antagonists (maybe too strong a word, but still!).
Seriously whether you've played games like Ripples and Eternum or looking to play your first AVN, I couldn't recommend this anymore!
So been playing the game and HOLY Smokes this game is really good. Looking forward to more installments eventually. This is one of the best kinetic harem games out there!!
This game's story is one of the good ones. I honestly can't wait until next chapters. It has lacks in visual department but the story is interesting and certainly it got me invested in it. Basically, that's what I expect from any VN - a good story where R18 content is a theme complimenting it.

just thought i would drop a review/ stream of thoughts i had for the game here.
kinda unique in the sense that it's almost more of a visual novel movie/ show more than an interactive game and i think that's more of a plus than a down side honestly. it looks like there was a token effort at the start to make choices that really didn't matter before giving up those not too far in and i kind of appreciate that.
i generally like to experience everything games like these have to offer and i bounce between the various girls but in the more sandbox style ones the author can't always account for what you have seen yet so scenes with the various girls tend to be very isolated from each other with very little cross over. and the ones with choices tend to only effect if your going to miss content or not.
this style cuts out the nonsense of the choice system and the linear style allows the author to tie all the girls stories very closely together. of course this style also lives and dies on how well the author can tell their story and sell their characters cause that's all it's selling and i honestly think they did a fantastic job.
the main plot isn't gonna win any awards for how interesting it is but does a solid job being the frame work for the character interactions and porn. the characters i think are the biggest selling point here the introductions the characters have and how they get involved with the protagonist can feel a bit forced and odd like the "cat" girl getting into him by sitting in his lap and getting him hard and then she is just like "this is now my life goal".
but once they get established just watching them interact is just a joy to watch. all the girls feel unique both visually and in their personalities and just seeing them react to various events and changes in relationship status or clash/ make friends with each other is a lot of fun.
the tone is very slice of life with very little drama or danger and what little there is just shakes up the status quo more than anything. the split between the school life and work feels really odd like it's half adult life and half highschool life and if i were to guess the school was added to make the cast interact with characters they normally wouldn't interact with naturally.
i like the pacing quite a bit giving just enough time of romance fluff and everyday life for each girl while also keeping the plot going at a good pace. i actually find some of the most interesting thing about romance is how it affects their day to day life and interactions with other people and this game is loaded with that so it scratches that niche itch for me.
it's definitely highlighted in the description but i will add for emphasis this is a highly male dom fetish story. both in and out of the bedroom the male lead makes sure he is very in charge of every situation and in general will act how most dudes imagine their best self being. don't mistake the male dom for being super hard core bdsm stuff even if their is some of that cause the tone is actually extremely wholesome.
i actually think the male dom fetish is criminally under represented in this style of game so it's pretty refreshing to see. i can also see a lot of attention to detail from the author to try and make the girls more real looking by adding things like pores, some rough texture to the shaved pubes area and a bit of meat curtains on the vaginas. but i do think they go over board with the wrinkles/calluses on the knees and elbows cause i am twice their age and i still got smoother skin there than they do. it doesn't ruin it or anything but it's definitely noticeable.
overall it was a great experience and i highly recommend it to anyone reading this. i'm sad i'm all caught up and it will probably be more than a year till i see more as i let the updates stack. cudos to the author cause you did some great work here.
** just a quick edit to mention i do think the girl introduction/ getting more involved get much better from sarah onward. not sure if that is just the author getting better at writing or just having that established cast gives them more room to let the new ones breath for their introductions but i thought i would bring it up regardless.
Thanks, that's an awesome review!
And just to answer the very last point: while I would say my writing certainly has improved over the course of making the game, it's more just having room to breathe.

Was not expecting to see a Lucy cameo in the latest version of That New Teacher. Was a pleasant surprise!
Yeah, Rogue (the dev of TnT) is a great guy - he's helped me out on a few occasions when I've got stuck with things.
How do I find your discord
There's a link at the top of the page.
I really love it when she showed off her new pink phone too hehee. She was so cute. Cannot wait for yours new update.

10 out of 10 this game rocks awesome story can't wait to see more keep up the great work
About how long for the next update
the story🔥🔥
Hold up, THE WRITING IS THIS FIRE???
"...you overcooked the Shrimp!" - lol - that was a good one!
This has no right whatsoever to be this excellent as a work of art. The primary theme of caring for hurt people, be they desperate, neglected, afraid, isolated, whatever it is, caring for hurt people through food (philosophically the sustenance of life), meaning using food to get them to open up to being cared for (which is a primary part of treating trauma of any variety), then using food as the gateway to seeing the world in reverse as in having them make the food to care for others so they understand what was done for them and why, which is a primary component to building trust.

Also I guess there are boobs.
The story is fun for sure I enjoy it very much. I love how you turned Victoria into one of the harem and her whole attitude flips. But my fav charchter is Lucy just something about her attitude. And she's gorgeous to boot. Rachel has my eye as well. Can't wait for more I'm an android user. And can't wait for a part 3. Please
Just wanted to comment that the Discord link seems to have expired.
Clicking it seemed to take me the the invite landing page just fine. I think Cosy set it up as a forever-invite.
It sends me to the landing page, but when I click 'join' it tells me the link is either invalid or expired.
This game changed my life
I became so invested in the story that I legitimately ended up staying up all night playing! I can't wait for more, this is one of the best VN's out there in my opinion, the scenes and animation are amazing, but the story has me enthralled!
That's awesome, glad you liked it!
Choosing beggar over here.
Would like it if the update posts said what day they go to. I hate being blindsided with it suddenly ending without me knowing its approaching
Since release, all updates have been 1 or 2 full days.
Cosy has stated that the upcoming version (0.11) will be a single day.
Perhaps going forward, it might be in the release notes, but just brace for it when you go to sleep. If you happen to make it to a second day, huzzah!
Hey, that's no problem at all. I'll try to remember next time!
I was never going to dl this. Silly toonporn tits, so sick of that sh*t!
I don't remember dling but so glad I did. I have been waiting for latest instalment eagerly.

Thank you.
Good luck and hope to see much more from you in the future.
Absolutely love this!
I can't help but wonder if rachel will turn out to be a hardcore masochist.
I am eagerly awaiting updates to find out just WHAT her deal is!! I am just so invested in the characters and story now and am so sad I hit the end of the current build, I wanted it to just keep going damnit!
I'm off the mindset she shouldn't be an LI, then again I'm sure we did have a similar mindset for some of the LIs early on. Cosy be cooking.
Can someone give me a mega download link? Whenever I download it from google it says "Download Forbidden". I'm on Android
Hey, sorry, I can't post download links here anymore, but if you join the discord I can give you them there.
you could post a download on patreon for those who wait for the free download
Unfortunately not. I looked into it when the free membership thing came out a few months ago, but patreon requires all adult content to be locked behind paid membership.
that sucks i cant download here since its over 5
I'm playing android and all character bios are unmet in part 2.
They will unlock when you get to the end.
I know the MC is primarily a Male Dom, but not sure if he is exclusively a male dom. What I like about the MC is that he clearly desires to find (and appropriately reciprocate) each female's kink and love language. The question that I am curious about:

(Akari or Elizabeth, maybe?)
Nope, there won't be any femdom. It would be completely at odds with the MC's personality, he's not even remotely submissive. Sorry!
You don't have to apologize, I completely understand. That's what sexual compatibility is all about and it makes complete sense.
Was just mostly curious.
I realy enjoy this game. Great story of MC, the Foundation familys story in backround.... amazing.... I like, that each girl has her own personality. I would realy love to see Rachal traped somwhere in cellar and spanked to cry. (she deserves it :) ). I wish you good luck
wil their be pregnancy someday in the future
By the way I love the story
Personally, to some extent I think that pregnancy content is inevitable. ALL of this is conjecture, by the way, since I am not the developer.
EDIT: I had a really long rant but removed it because I didn't want potential spoilers.
Eventually, yes. But not for a long time.
With pregnancy planned a long ways off, I was curious if there was ever going to be any planned time-skips?
Reason I ask is because I know the MC has already hinted at attending culinary school alongside Akatsuki. Pending MC dropping out of 3rd year, this would at least be somewhere around Day 200+.

Pretty good
Want to play a drinking game? Every time he smacks their butt, take a drink :P
No thank you, I don't want to die of alcohol poisoning, lol.
LOL i know right
Is there any difference between 0.10 and 0.10.1?
Its very minor: some script/grammar fixes.
Per Cosy on the 0.10.1 Public Release dev log above:
"
Though those of you that did manage to get 0.10 before it was taken down should probably just wait for 0.11 before getting it again.
"One the best games out there animation and story wise and the dev is pretty good
Fantastic game! Will for sure subscribe on subscribestar soon. Hope it gets updated for many more years, the story and character development is very good!
But for now brought on Itch.io too, as just saw it was possible to buy it.
I just noticed I can now buy the game here! :-)
So I happily did!
Looking forward to the future updates!

how can I install on iOS?
before I login, your page now says
"This page isn't available right now"
when I login, it works just fine.
They censoring it?
Cosy got account suspended for replying to too many comments after last update so that could be why u are seeing this...you can join the discord cosy explains everything there if u haven't already...
Wow that sucks!
Let me guess.... it's an automated bot that does it?
Correct until human verification unfortunately...
Thanks for the info! :-)
i can't wait for the next update this game is fantastic
i play it for the 4 time again
Too bad, actually I think the game, the girls and the story are really well done...and I should say that I love the game...but, I like it better if you could decide who dominates who. Make more decisions. But otherwise really good work and keep up the good work.

tried to open the. game but I get hit with a "application can't be opened" any. help with this
Did you try opening it with Admin?
I've had this issue randomly.
Anyone have link for ddiscord the link is expired
The Discord link at the beginning of this page seems to work just fine.
Genuinely one of my all time favourite Visual Novels!
Played more than a handful at this point and since I discovered this maybe a half a year back I've played it through three times and feel like I notice something new everytime.
The waits between updates are pleasant as well since you know how to close a chapter so damn well and that definitely deserves to be pointed out.
Every character has been deeply interesting from our great cast of main characters to our plentiful side characters and even antagonists (maybe too strong a word, but still!).
Seriously whether you've played games like Ripples and Eternum or looking to play your first AVN, I couldn't recommend this anymore!
So been playing the game and HOLY Smokes this game is really good. Looking forward to more installments eventually. This is one of the best kinetic harem games out there!!
Another amazing continuation of the storyline, truly cant express how I feel about it.
This game's story is one of the good ones. I honestly can't wait until next chapters.
It has lacks in visual department but the story is interesting and certainly it got me invested in it. Basically, that's what I expect from any VN - a good story where R18 content is a theme complimenting it.
