XDDD Such dedication—wait... How are you able to access the game file on Android? Is your phone rooted?
Anyway, glad you like it! =3 If you want to know the progress, check out Living in Viellci 0.3 Full | Trello to see what I'm working on and the list to do before the full drop!
Yeah, my phone is rooted. Took a while trying to root it with my computer and not messing it up.
Reason I rooted my phone is because there is this one game that I wanted to stuff a mod into but I do not have direct or indirect access to the files, so I ended up searching for ideas how to. Now that I've done rooting and I realized I cannot unroot myself, I got myself a very good personal antivirus and made sure everything is secure.
All I do is to steal memes or images whenever I like, sometimes I steal literature, too :p
And sure! I'll make sure to get myself fully updated. I reaaaallyy really really reallyreallyreally love the game! It is one of the very few games that piqued me the most. The story is hecka interesting and the gameplay elements got me invested the moment I started playing. I am shaking my chair waiting for the actual action RPG elements like battling, crafting, and exploring!
One idea I have in mind is that maybe later in the game, instead of relying with gambling or doing nefarious ways of earning quick money, Raymond could have access to stock exchange or crypto currency. Maybe this could be introduced when Raymond would have to pay gigantic sums of money for investments or upgrades, judging with how the city resembles like a dystopian world, money would be inflated to the point that a piece of candy would cost a full dollar or so.
I don't know ways on how to balance this kind of system but it is a nice addition, unless this defeats a purpose to something you're planning, then I understand. I swear I'm not a lazy and horny bozo lmao
Oooo, I see... Yeah, the thing with Android is that it cannot be "modded" So that's why I released the Android version without custom support.
One of the members in the server also suggested adding crypto, so I might add that once I'm back into coding, but for now, I'm working on the city's street scenes~
I'm glad you liked the game! Cheers! (Don't worry ;] I get it xD)
Well, it seems that the beta has been released to collect people's opinions. Here's mine
1) It's actually a game. Visual novel with real gameplay elements is a rarity on itch. Minigames are original and there is plenty of them (though I didn't quite like more random ones like "find the x" or local RPC variant. And it's not about them being random rather than they are more simplistic.I think, something like battleships or a race roll-and-move game would be better. But I don't know, maybe it's just me)
Anyway, gameplay is high quality
2) UI is incredibly good
3) The rest of the visual part of the game (backgrounds, characters etc) seems not to be finished so I won't comment on it. Same goes for the plot
4) Music is discreet and enjoyable. But the game goes silent a lot, that's a bad decision for me. Dialogue mumbling (placeholder?) does annoy, glad it could be turned off
Overall, one of the most promising games here. Keep up the good work!
And some remarks
1) Exploration feature. Why does not walking cost energy? Is it intentional?
And a bug: entering any building resets the step counter
2)
"Slow-cooked" is a funny detail considering that cooking does not take any time
3)
Colour settings reset in the editor when reopening the tab. And it's better to call them like "color 1, 2, etc" or "main color, secondary color". Cause if changed there are no longer black and white
- exploration changed to only takes 10 minutes and no energy is intentional, scavenging will take energy instead. *knowing energy management is pretty tedious.
Entering building resets steps is intentional as well, it's going to be annoying it doesn't. Time is important.
- he plan to change the cooking system, so it might takes time.
- color changing is supposed to be "global" because if it's individual, it's going to be tedious and might caused a lag and confusion.
I'm very happy to hear the whole review of BETA! And sorry for the music part, I haven't dealt much with it, since I want to add ambiance and new music... So I leave it like that XD
The character bleeps were intentional (just like animalese from Animal Crossing)
I have to say, the UI and dialogue stuff feels pretty solid, though it seems like there's some latency(?) or a bit of a lag when opening stuff like the wardrobe/stash and going through Millie's interaction menu. Exploration also kinda feels a bit tedious/slow with the slow fade-ins and outs, and the sometimes missing direction indicators on the minimap. Edit: immediately after posting this I found out that we can zoom out the minimap, so scratch that complaint lol. Just a bunch of minor pet peeves though. Save for the understandable lack of content this game actually looks pretty solid for an early beta. Really looking forward to the full release of 0.3.
- Yes, I still need to optimize the system to reduce the lag (The image load was the main issue)
- As for the exploration, I'll see what I can do with the fade-in! (Yeah, there are supposed to be many streets there, but I haven't dealt with the drawing part yet!)
If you have suggestions for the exploration part, please feel free to tell me! <3
The closed beta was for only a few people, and they found a lot of issues XD So now, I'm fixing it, until there's almost no issue with the whole gameplay
(plus, waiting for my artists to finish their art)
Today is a closed beta test before the open beta! (I need to add more recipes, checking the clothing store, and the custom clothing if it adds or not!)
I am currently playtesting the .3 beta! (Surprisingly, there are a few systems that kinda take a bit more performance, which I already dealt with yesterday, hopefully, I don't find anymore today, so I can polish the last thing before others can playtest it!)
Then I can start making some changes to this page xD Cheers!
As the sun dips beneath the horizon, casting long shadows that seem to stretch the very fabric of time, I find myself ensnared in the relentless grip of anticipation. The promise of an update, a shimmering mirage on the distant sands of my existence, has morphed into a relentless specter that haunts my days. I now feel the brittle weight of years pressing upon my weary shoulders, each moment a droplet of languish pooling within the crevices of my soul. My fingers, once deft and nimble as they danced across the keyboard, now tremble like autumn leaves caught in an unrelenting breeze, their vitality dimmed by the inexorable passage of time. My heart, once a drum of eager anticipation, now beats a somber lullaby, each thud resonating with the echoes of broken hopes. The world outside my window unfolds in a technicolor blur, while I remain ensconced in a sepulcher of despair, waiting for a release that dances just beyond my grasp. And so, I sit, a relic of hope and yearning, my spirit tethered to an elusive dream, a testament to the folly of waiting.
For BETA release - This month (hopefully, still making progress and doing a lot of Trials and Errors with the previous system) For Public release - Hopefully early next year
To put simply, .3 Alpha uses a "prototype" half-softcoded system, while .3 Beta uses a new and mostly-softcoded system.
Means, no, Alpha save cannot be used on Beta. But! The prologue is way more different now =3 (Starting .3 The story is going to be final and you can do a comparison between Alpha and Beta to see the changes ;])
Due to my sickness (Flu - Still coughing till now) that still going on, I've been trying to cure myself while also making progress... (God I hate getting sick and delayed again...)
But I promise it will be this month... Thank you for your patience. Cheers.
There are only 5 things left I have to polish before the BETA release:
Workshop (Minigames and the daily stuff) Clothing store and Wardrobe (Clothings and sprites) Weekend option Finishing BETA Story and Objectives Music manager and Codex function
1 step before the full release? Because... it's already EA (Early Access) and i really have no understanding what you spesific mean by "finishing Beta story""
And thanks a lot - I guess sleeping is the most powerfull weapon against everything, I really feel a lot better then yesterday + the day before
: D
Also
Can you MAYBEEEE plz. Add as a joke (maybe) to sleep a week? Just so the character needs everything by waking up BUT as a buff, has 2,5 times the "normal" stamina (don't make the stamina bar longer for that, just make the bar go further then it can "normally" hold like overritting the other pixels)
I plan to add a "Player made translation" into the game, so, you can translate the line as your own, and then put it into the game, and it'll be there~
So, you don't need to wait for each update for a new language!
Still have things to polish, so maybe the end of this month =] I've been pushing myself now, headache here and there, but don't worry, once it's ready, I'll announce it.
Oh yeah I wanted to know beta version mobile support? I usually play on phone not on my laptop:v (ask here again bc still didn't want to ask in discord sorry:<)

Just noticed the update. I must check it out.
It's very fun, but the intro is pretty lengthy
Yeah, to get the hang of it, since there are going to be several mechanics the player has to understand.
Plus, to get the lore of it? I guess that's the word xD
Cheers!
Thank you for making memes as a placeholder for the 'Fool Around' option when interacting with Millie while she is sleeping.
I may have broken into my phones files and forced myself into the games code to manually copy and paste all of the memes into my personal folder.
I love you so much 💕💕
XDDD

Peak Cinema... It was worth it waiting for this update!!!

Quality review. Absolute helpful.
I can reply with the remark in NC's behalf
- exploration changed to only takes 10 minutes and no energy is intentional, scavenging will take energy instead. *knowing energy management is pretty tedious.
Entering building resets steps is intentional as well, it's going to be annoying it doesn't. Time is important.
- he plan to change the cooking system, so it might takes time.
- color changing is supposed to be "global" because if it's individual, it's going to be tedious and might caused a lag and confusion.
Hope this helps and correct NC lol
10/10 review. You are the kind of people who I like the most: no yapping and straight-forward
I'm very happy to hear the whole review of BETA!
And sorry for the music part, I haven't dealt much with it, since I want to add ambiance and new music... So I leave it like that XD
The character bleeps were intentional (just like animalese from Animal Crossing)
For the remarks, RXTeej got it correctly xD
I will add the suggestion to the list! Thank you so much! <3
It's time!
CANT WAIT TO GAMBLE YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
also good job on all the work you have done. ^v^
Thank you!
I will keep improving the game as I learn and experience more with the system! <3
I really appreciate everyone's patience!
Fanaly WHOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW its down now even its beta for the 10th of months fanaly here thankssss 😘😘😘
Yippiee

Gambling is not here yet…Aw dang it.
yeah, I really need more time to draw the city scenes xD
Finally! An update to the page!
Looking cool!
fr
Happy to hear!
waiting 🥺
It’s nearly there… just like a few weeks…
Unfortunately, I found an issue with the Android part (which does not allow custom clothing and decoration)
so, currently, I am making Android a different build than PC!
Show post...
11
11 what?
How can you enter the playtest? Is it patreons only?
Its for selected discord local members that can try the closed beta~
I missed the playtest noooooo, looking forward to the new update!
The open beta will be shown here once it's ready!
(still fixing the issue found from closed beta xD)
You said that you’ll let others play test it after you’ve playtested, so when’s that? Was that yesterday? I can’t use discord on my iphone 6.
The closed beta was for only a few people, and they found a lot of issues XD
So now, I'm fixing it, until there's almost no issue with the whole gameplay
(plus, waiting for my artists to finish their art)
Aw, I want to playtest. But you can’t have everything, so I’m looking forward the whole completed v0.3 :)
DM me on discord!
Yay let’s go
is it out on the discord?
Today is a closed beta test before the open beta!
(I need to add more recipes, checking the clothing store, and the custom clothing if it adds or not!)
Cooking
Waiting :/Jk, take your time and watch out for your health :)
Closed beta test is today =3
the discord link has expired
Will update it !
yo how do i get interest? i have 130 trust, i've finished the story but the adult books/movies wont pop up, the aphrosidiac also wont pop up
nevermind i didnt realise the SFW was automatically on, W game btw still waiting for 0.3
I am currently playtesting the .3 beta!
(Surprisingly, there are a few systems that kinda take a bit more performance, which I already dealt with yesterday, hopefully, I don't find anymore today, so I can polish the last thing before others can playtest it!)
Then I can start making some changes to this page xD
Cheers!
any day now...
2 more things to polish! (Trials and Errors is the most annoying but neat part)
Or the Dev is making the bigest update in history, or he just abandoned the project
Almost there!
You'll see the changes soon! <3
As the sun dips beneath the horizon, casting long shadows that seem to stretch the very fabric of time, I find myself ensnared in the relentless grip of anticipation. The promise of an update, a shimmering mirage on the distant sands of my existence, has morphed into a relentless specter that haunts my days.

And so, I sit, a relic of hope and yearning, my spirit tethered to an elusive dream, a testament to the folly of waiting.
Oh my- that's the most longest way of "when update" ever xD
But don't worry! 4 more things to polish left before the Beta release!
Nice. Now I can use this to ask for updates in other games
Agreeed xD
I just want to ask, is there an estimated date for the public release?
For BETA release - This month (hopefully, still making progress and doing a lot of Trials and Errors with the previous system)
For Public release - Hopefully early next year
Oh and can v0.3 alpha save be used in v0.3 beta or I’ll have to restart?
To put simply, .3 Alpha uses a "prototype" half-softcoded system, while .3 Beta uses a new and mostly-softcoded system.
Means, no, Alpha save cannot be used on Beta. But! The prologue is way more different now =3
(Starting .3 The story is going to be final and you can do a comparison between Alpha and Beta to see the changes ;])
Um, it’s september by my time, will there be any update? I don’t mind waiting tho
Due to my sickness (Flu - Still coughing till now) that still going on, I've been trying to cure myself while also making progress... (God I hate getting sick and delayed again...)
But I promise it will be this month... Thank you for your patience.
Cheers.
Please take your time to heal
I'm also kind of sick (geting much better sins Cirno Day (09.09) and you were speaking out of my soul with this fact)
In summer, when everything burns because of this big fireball called "sun" ...
I hope you're getting well soon too TBOTUkN!
There are only 5 things left I have to polish before the BETA release:
Workshop (Minigames and the daily stuff)
Clothing store and Wardrobe (Clothings and sprites)
Weekend option
Finishing BETA Story and Objectives
Music manager and Codex function
Like ...
1 step before the full release? Because... it's already EA (Early Access) and i really have no understanding what you spesific mean by "finishing Beta story""
And thanks a lot - I guess sleeping is the most powerfull weapon against everything, I really feel a lot better then yesterday + the day before
: D
Also
Can you MAYBEEEE plz. Add as a joke (maybe) to sleep a week? Just so the character needs everything by waking up BUT as a buff, has 2,5 times the "normal" stamina (don't make the stamina bar longer for that, just make the bar go further then it can "normally" hold like overritting the other pixels)
Have a good one!!
By "Full release" I mean .3 release xD
and Beta story, I mean the story for the Beta version. (just like in the Alpha release)
Glad to hear! ^^ I'm also starting to get better now, the cough is not that bad anymore!
And as for a joke, it's always there ;]
Cheers!
I'm excited for the new update I hope it's done soon.
I would like to know if you are thinking of including other languages, such as PT BR
I plan to add a "Player made translation" into the game, so, you can translate the line as your own, and then put it into the game, and it'll be there~
So, you don't need to wait for each update for a new language!
Hey man this game is AWESOME, can't believe such a gem exists, the style is so cute, best wishes!
Thank you! Glad you liked it Aiden <3
If you have any suggestions or want to hop into the community, feel free to join us!
Cheers!
A week (or more) left yay
it remebers me of the game "monochrome fantasy", but youre doing a great job, i cant wait for the update
Fun fact: this is inspired by imouto ~fantasy~
Well i can really see most of the inspiration and some improvement, i love the imouto game ( both of them). Gonna try this one after release for sure
as expected
Any chance of releasing it next week?
Still have things to polish, so maybe the end of this month =]
I've been pushing myself now, headache here and there, but don't worry, once it's ready, I'll announce it.
Cheers.
Even though I haven't finished it yet, I really like the game. Most NSFW games are usually adult just to be adult. This is sweet and wholesome.
My actual target is the storytelling and the general life simulation =]
Glad you liked the 0.2 version GLiTch! ^^
Oh yeah I wanted to know beta version mobile support? I usually play on phone not on my laptop:v (ask here again bc still didn't want to ask in discord sorry:<)
Yep, beta will be available for mobile =3
Waitin
same here
Zzzzz
