Since it may be useful for people who are struggling to get the early upper body, I've transcribed the points from the code here.

Face
eyes 1 = +5
eyes 2 = +5
forehead 1 = +5
hair 1 = +1
hair 2 = +10
hair 3 = +10
jawline 1 = +3
jawline 2 = +3
jawline 3 = +5
lips 1 = +1
lips 2 = +2
nose 1 = +5

Upper Body
arms 1 = +1
breasts 1 = +5
breasts 2 = +5
breasts 3 = +5
hands 1 = +1
waist 1 = +3
waist 2 = +3

The optimal path is Hair 1-3 > Eyes 1-2 > Nose 1 > Forehead 1, which should unlock the upper body transformations on Day 6. Then you want to take Breasts 1-3. Those combined with Hair 1-3 have the most visual impact on the paperdoll.

Also, something you might not know, but the other transformations for lower body and genitals are actually fully modeled on the paperdoll! You have to use a save editor to manipulate your save file to add them to your character, but they are all fully modeled so far. The only ones that seem to be missing are skinProg, voiceProg and heightProg. These don't do anything yet.

Thanks to you, I've managed to hit "Tomboyish girl" by the end of current content. Which is farther than I had gotten to last time. I had barely reached enough poitns to get Androgynous.

So much unused space on the screen. Is it possible to extend the text to the other two thirds of unused screen space? Or in lieu of that having the stats and appearance and relationships displays show up there? I've been clicking around the few menus there are but I don't see any options like that currently.

Next update will let you use that space for the paper doll and/or state of selected attributes, for what it's worth.

Speaking of updates, 0.19 is now out for the public, with 0.21 released for patrons~

A very small note, but while i was having a look at the game script for 0.19, i've noticed that some of transformations had tweaked their impact on feminine appearance, and one of them just seems a little odd:

When previously each change of breast size (small, medium, large) would give +5 to feminine appearance, now the middle stage e.g. getting medium-size breasts only grants +2 to feminine looks, while other two stages remain unchanged. It just seems a bit odd and counter-intuitive, so thought it's worth a mention just in case. If the intention was to reduce the impact from breast development on feminine appearance, then setting all three stages to +4 would give the same result (+12 total) but without the unexpected jump in values..?

Would it be possible in the future to see both the front and the backside of a paperdoll? I'm sure that this idea would be both time, and resource consuming but at the same time it would be a nice touch - when we can perform lower body transformations.

amaty just a thought, after playing 0.19 -- the story has MC learn in this update to not just select but also "fully control" how their body transformations go.
You open your eyes, exhaling slowly. The transformation settled exactly how you wanted it to, exactly how you envisioned it. You guided the $referto. More than that. You //owned// it.
Click to expand...
But that also conjures an elephant into the room, which is that MC who's been reluctant of what's happening to him and want nothing more than to revert the curse... is now apparently capable of doing exactly that -- using magic in controlled manner to transform their appearance back to the way it was. Instead of just progressing with feminine transformations they don't want.

So, it may be reasonable to have MC bring that up with someone, be it Aurora of whoever, to provide some explanation why this is not an option. Because well, despite technical possibility it doesn't seem to be an option and MC not even trying to do it or thinking about it regardless of their attitude towards the curse can be a little weird. :v

Question :

Is this, or, Not, an Adult/NSFW Game ?

Over on the TFG Site, You said :
" Please do not play this game expecting an adult game " :oops:

Then, you state here, (in this thread) :

So, Just Curious . . .

If you download here, you'll get the "NSFW/Adult" version ? :cool:
And,
If you download over at the TFG Site you'll get the "Non-Adult" version ? :unsure:

Are you really that ambitious, to have two different versions ?

You get the same version of the game from all places. But you can also choose if you want to see the NSFW content which the game has, or to skip it, either the most explicit stuff, or completely.

That note about the adult content is mainly because this isn't the game's primary focus, so the amount of such content is relatively limited, even if you choose to enable it.

Finally, a game in this genre, besides The Princess Trap, that allows you to date women. Most of these games make your character immediately interested in men, forcing you to follow a male route, or wander through the circle of penises. And of course, don't just focus on adult content, I like a good story, in addition to the sexual content.

It's definitely a weird choice to go in since the player technically already had full control over the transformations. For a reluctant Ethan, it makes no sense for them to engage with the transformations willingly, and giving them the ability to control it kind of defeats the purpose and sucks the fun from that type of run. For a 100% accepting Ethan, there is now no reason not to immediately fully transform, and if the player still has to wait to trigger the transformations, then there's not really a reason to say they almost have control over it anyway.

I feel like the player should have control of the transformations while Ethan shouldn't, if that makes sense.

Someone on discord said that in version 0.22, there will be a bad ending for those who don't accept the transformations, I just don't know if it's true, but if it is, it's very sad.

Hmm, that would be rather weird, given how the game otherwise allows you to have this attitude, and explicitly states multiple times that you have a year to resolve your situation one way or another, not that you'll be getting Bad End on Week 3 if you don't toe the line. Hopefully the person on Discord simply got that wrong.

Well, I hope it's just a situation where it's like 'you feel a transformation coming on but can't prevent it,' and continuously fighting it leads to a bad end in this situation. It would show that despite Ethan having a lot of magical potential and raw power, he still has to deal with the curse and play by its rules for now. This seems more likely than just stopping a reluctant Ethan playthrough.

Yes, although I play the routes accepting all transformations, my preference is the Cheerleader and Jessica route, I want to test the route in the future where my character does not accept the transformations.

My top is

1: Jessica
2: Aurora
3: Samantha.

In all of them I accept the transformations, I do not play the male ones.

It might also explain a comment the fortuneteller can make where she states that the curse should be pushing back the more he tries to resist it. She basically states that he shouldn't be able to completely reject the curse's effects (so she assumes it must be "lying dormant" for the time being).
