How do I get the dyes to make the Rubik's cube and how can I do the second part of the detective mission at the love hotel?
anyone else have a character disappear and then have to force close the game and app just to regain control?
Is it only me or I can't access cotton in the extras section
In fall, year 3, the poster board in the town square is not loading on one side and calendar is not updating with new events (concert). One of the date spots won't load as an option (hot springs).
still loosing my character in the adventure scenes, only this time it is stuck like this and i have to force close the game and loose all of my progress.
I've played Finn's route and got every Scene except 'Kitchen Fun" under marriage events. Anyone know how to trigger that scene?
same here I'm trying to trigger it with no luck so far
so... anyone figure out where to find black grass or black leaves?
Only source I have found is to befriend Skippy from the Dark Forest. That is an item he randomly gives. I've received enough items from him for 5 black dye so far. Had him on the ranch for about a month. It is rare, but the only way I've found.
How can we restore employee durability?Is there anyone kind-hearted who can explain it to me
You need to assign them to the restroom at the ranch and they will recover a bit each day.
thank you
how do you get the recipe for red wine and milk coffee? and how do you get rice?
How do you get married? I've bought both the bed and the rings, what else do I have to do in order to trigger it?
The priest gives you a quest to donate to the church that allows for marriage ceremony. From memory completing other requests opens up that one.
When clicking on the question marks to collect items, sometime my character disappears. it takes a long time before he reappears and i can continue the scene.
On Cotton's route it doesn't progress to being able to buy the ring and propose. When spending time together it just keeps saying we are getting closer. Last event was the drunk scene
Is it just me or can no one else get Yolkie's second kid, I get the trial but after that nothing else happens.
I thought you can only have one baby with each character?
It happened to me as well only can see the first one one doesn't look like it has been fixed?
Is anyone else having severe crashing issues with the Android version? Haven't made it past Year 1 Day 5....
there a lot of bug and some of it make me can’t even progress in game (I play in cotton route)
1. cotton birthday not show up in calendar
2. cotton don’t join party when go outside
3. A lot of bug on cotton foreplay scene even crash sometime
4. Can’t progress story after Cotton's victory celebration
5. In year 2 game crash on flower dance. Game can’t continue playing after that.
I am playing Banana Ranch Windows Version 2.5 GB
Version 4 is this the most recent. When doing the monster the menu button is gone. Also, after clicking on a monster, then running away a new one doesn't spawn. I was also wondering if there would be a way to delete old saves like you had in Seiyuu Danshi.
Can someone please tell me where do i get all the receipt i seem to have some space in my book shelf
since the update vesion 2 snowy mountain crashes game every time after a few steps, also there don't seem to be monsters in any other biome but the 1st one with blue slimes
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
Its about 1 route per year so far so mabye, even so, Its better to get a fully fleshed out game than something thats rushed. So we should just be patient.
Lol, let's be real. I will never pay for a game that took more than 10 years to make and this game is just a VN not even a complicated game. As far as i can see they just fishing for more supporter to get money while dragging the game update. The same case with yandere simulator. I suggest you look at that game case than come back here and talk to me
Then you can simply not support the game and make your own since its so "simple", instead of whining over people trying their best. The yandere dev comment being unrelated to the situation, if you actually did a deep dive into the history of that. So instead of getting on a high horse trying to lecture people about how youre just a sad impatient disappointment who revolves their whole life over waiting on a literal dating sim, then be be my guest. Is that real enough? lol
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?
