I love this game so much especially when Cotton's route is going to release and the update is really cute! But since it's the first time I bought a game in beta version I'm still not very familiar to the way getting update. Does the update influence current saves? Do you need to start a new save after updating the game or current saves works just fine?
I'm mostly interested in Cotton, so when is his route gonna be fully released? As soon as it is, I'm happy
this game has been out for so many years, and only 3 routes so far..
I mean to be fair based on the size of the team along with how busy their day to day lives are, it will take a while to implement everything since it is a lot of characters after all.
10 years maybe, this is insane
Is there a form or something for us to report bugs.
I am currently on Yolkie's route and my second child is not appearing even though it has been more than a week since the second love trial cutscene
When is this game releasing? I even forgot I purchased it..
can anyone please tell me where i can find a soft feather? and where can i find the ponpon merchandise for the god of love i have looked everywhere but i cant seem to find them?
Soft feather can be found at the snowy mountain by collecting stuff
As for the ponpon merch, if I remember correctly you need to help out the cafe owner and the general store owner and they will give it to you afterwards
i think i bought this on 2019...
Yep... is anything happening here? Anyone home?
so guess the game is not finished yet?
I'd love to preorder, though I wish I had more faith this game is ever going to be complete. 8 months for half a route is a long time.
we are now at least 2 years into development and we still only have like what? 3 interests?
they're also planing on doing more games on the side. it's a bit annoying.
Way more than two years... I paid $60 four years ago. I loved their Seiyuu Danshi game so much that at the time, funding this was a no-brainer, but I think they're in over their heads.
if i pay more if i originally paid for the release will i get access to beta if i add onto the price?
where can i find the angel statue for the priest
Is the main character always the one who is dominant (the one who fucks) (top?) I like my main characters to be submissive more so thats why I ask
With kind regards,
Cheeks ;)
Dont know if you already know this but no, both the MC and love interest can top and bot. So don't you worry:)
I kinda confused since Ban can handle alcohol well in Finn route, but he drunk with just a sip in Moocha route?
*whisper* And shouldn't Finn stop collect the farm debt once he married Ban though? Hmph!
I bought the game for 30$ but I guess that was just the preorder, to get early access i need to buy the 45$ one, So does that mean I need to spend another 15$ or would I have to purchase it again at 45$?
You need to request a refund, then rebuy it for $45
We want update!
Last update 18 aug😭
Question. You can change your character name at the start, but he still introduces himself as Ban. Is this a glitch?
For the children part, do the sprites appear pregnant at all or is it the same as usual like in harvest moon games?
Hey I'm on Finn's route and right before the baby's are born I clicked him to spend some time with him and I get the kitchen scene were I can be eather top or bottom then I get the visiting parents scene a couple of days later but it says I didn't get the kitchen scene its greyed out. unless I can trigger it again nothing is working
Plus I'm having trouble with yolkies route to I stopped his currently cuz I can't figure out why the free babysitter is not triggering and the baby's early education. plus are you supposed to see both baby's for yolkies route cuz I didn't get to see the second child until the third flower festival and didn't get to name it cuz it says child 2
I'm so close to finishing the 2 routes remaining cuz i already finished moocha so let me know thanks cuz im just missinmi one cg's from Finn's route im missing 3rd row last cg and im missing 2 cg's from yolkies im missing are first row last cg and second row Second cg I really hope those 2 cg's im missing are from the free babysitter and baby's early education if anyone knows plz im lost 😢
I have same problem. Baby 2 born scene not trigger at all. I think it was a bug.
Hello!
I have a few questions!
Is the game still in development? Or is it finished but some characters like Haves won't be available? (implying that the funding campaign didn't reach enough tiers)
And, is god just an npc? (what do you mean i want to romance god? no. nothing like that. of course.)
Either way the game looks so fun i can't wait to play it!!
still in development
Thank you!~
is the sex scenes in this game like seiyuu danshi with chibi?
I think there's a bug in the game...I have went to the spooky forest for so many times and I never once recieved material for black dye , neither am I able to befriend any of the monsters there .
In order to get black grass you need to befriend Skippy in the spooky forest when u find him use last fighting option so keep doing it till u get a cutscene
It's a rare gift so u need to check every day he only gives 1 item per day I got mine pretty quickly within 3 days hope that helps
Hello I just wanna ask if there is anything different in the 60$ and 45$ pack is there like more content in the game?
u get the fanbook in the 60 one
is there an update or something because I bought it and it said This game has files that aren't released yet. Come back to this page when the developer has released the files in order to download them
did u buy the 29.99?
yeah but I think I understand the isue
Ye the devs said this if u would like to up it to the 45
1) Contact support@itch.io, asking to refund the previous purchase with the reason (saying because you want to upgrade)
2) Repurchase the game at $45 tier or up ($60 tiers will get you a Banana Ranch Fanbook for free) this is what dev said
oh thanks for this have a nice day
Did I do sth wrong I downloaded the demo, extracted the files, and open the application BananaRanchDemo and run file but the game doesn't work, its say BananaRanchDemo.exe error It happened many times. Even though I deleted and reloaded.What should I do? Is there something wrong or is my computer doesn't support this game? (translate into Thai In case there are Thai people who meet and can help me. : คือผมโหลดมาหลายครั้งหลายรอบมากแต่มันไม่เคยเล่นได้สักทีมันขึ้นเออเร่อตลอดเลยคือผมต้องไปตั้งค่าตรงไหนรึเปล่าหรือว่าคอมผมมันไม่รองรับ)
Hi, I payed for the pre ordered version only to realise that in order to play the beta version I need to pay 45 dollars, I was wondering if I pay the difference will I be able to access the beta version?
nooo dont do that! email the devs and they will refund u and u can get the 45 one, since with itch u still have to pay the full price, they said to just email them if u had checked the update
ah wait sorry here s what dev said
I will try... thanks
lol unless u wanna pay 45 bucks 0.0 but yw
I just contacted them, I will let know if it worked.
I paid the pre-order... when will I be able to download it?
You can click to load it..
When we finish paying, it will show the load for this??
or if you accidentally press close while loading..then give this game web page again..and notice the top of this website or the game logo...
You will see the word download as well.
I also pre-order it, I never could download it ictio speak about the 29$ version where we couldn't play it
In order to download this game you must purchase it at or above the minimum price of $29.99 USD. You will get access to the following files:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure about this one..because I bought it for the first time. 45.00 ever
As for what he wrote, it should mean that when you buy this game for 29.99 .. the game may be full temporarily because the game also adds other characters to flirt all the time.
As far as I guessed..it's simple, 29.99 is that you bought it first for insurance..and add more 18 will be 45.00 and will be able to be a game that can be loaded at any time and updated every time.
This one, I guess because I just learned to buy like this and then buy the 45.00 type... you try to reply on the name of the game owner, he will probably explain himself.
So I'm not sure how to buy the 29.99 model.
According to the picture, I bought a 45.
Yes you do but me and I think him if he was on the same case, we bough the 29$ version on itch.io wich des not gain access to download the game
I wonder if there is an option where I can pay the remmaining amount to be able to dowload the game
in order to access beta its the 45 one- it says it too...yall bought the full game pre order which is 29, the 45 one is the BETA and the 60 is the BETA and full game so if u want to access beta u need to get the 45, in the update the dev said contact them to get a refund if u want to up the price for 45 since sadly itch io charges full price
We need Chinese. Because there is no Chinese, the appeal of the plot is greatly reduced for us.
Why cant i move on from when Yolkie thinks about living with me, after that date i cant get anything else
I think there was a bug preventing the marriage proposal prompt. I'll need to fix that.
Ok, thank you
Meyaoi I found a bug
Will there be an Android version of this game since seiyuu danshi has one?
Does this game will be ever finished?
Given the enormous number of characters and the speed of development, I wouldn't hold my breath... I wonder if the developers bit off a little more than they could chew.
l need a refund for it.I paid $29.99 for it, but there is no downloadable file.
I think that's because you Pre-ordered the game, so you won't get the donwloadable file before the game is finished and released.
In order to get the downloadable file you need to pay $45 USD. This gives you beta access to the finished routes, (Moocha, Finn, and this week we get Yolkie).
so if I payed 29.99... how can I change it? by donating more 15.01?
So.... when is this game gonna be finished? Any news since the last dev log?
The creator is currently working on yolkie route based on the Twitter account. I don't know if that's new
According to Twitter, yolkie route is now finished! They said the update should come in about a week. I just really wished they kept us posted here sometimes...
Well the creator is pretty busy with life and it may take longer since it's one person working on it so it may depend on their schedule
it still feels very unprofessional leaving people on here in the dark for so long. Especially when they update their Twitter more often.
Anyone know how to see the Finn CGs again? I have Married and had kids with Finn but he is still not present in the extras menu..?
No update....
