I hope you don't mind, but I figure I'll make some comments here as I play. I do really like the game, but there are a few things I wanted to note. ^_^
The scene with Violet & her BF at the start is probably out of place... It feels like it belongs after we meet Violet.
I think Act 1 could use a narrator. Scenes begin and end abruptly and the transition is rough, but a narration might help to make things flow better. If possible the 'X days later' messages should probably be done as a transition scene. Like a calendar advancing through the days.
Some of the text tends suggest you've had sex with a guy "I have had sex before, so I've seen a cock before", which seems awkward if you selected having a lesbian sexual experience before.
In the pool locker room the game suggests 'Rita' has never enjoyed female attention before... But she slept with a female friend in HS.
In the kiss scene with Haruka it suggests Rita hasn't kissed another girl... But that's only true if she's a 'virgin'.
Violet and Rita don't seem to get much time together. This feels like a consistent problem. From when she is on the list for 'I want to have sex' to into Act 2. They really need to spend way more time together. Maybe it's because I chose the boys on the 'have sex' question, but it feels like Violet doesn't even get many scenes on her own anymore. She appears only slightly more than Sara in Act 2.
My only other note is that Luna's nipples often look weirdly placed on her bobs. They feel like the are high and to the outer side almost every time she's nude.
Also in general it often feels like there isn't a lot of girl talk going on... Maybe it's just women I know (& ones from certain TV shows), but when we get together we talk about sex. But it feels like these girls barely do. Heck Rita & Violet have never talked about the alley, but if a friend caught me doing that in an alley we'd definitely have a conversation about it. Especially if we had had sex.
Also of note the stats didn't update right when the guy at the hot springs took Rita's anal virginity. The 'Anal virgin' went away, but the 'anal sec count' says 0.
*Giggles* And that marks where version 0.16 ends. At least for one play through. 'Rita' feels super like me when I was that age, so I really enjoy the game. Though I may really want her to get super kinky and visit that 'bed of roses' society. But then in this run I pretty much teased and slept with everyone just for the fun of it.
The game is good, but the dialogue feels jarring and I finally realized why. The game mostly plays itself. For instance, Rita still flirts with her guy friends regardless of what you choose, the game defaults to guys for randoms on normal mode instead of letting you choose, and core story scenes are removed on LM as well. But all in all, time moves too fast so it feels like being dragged forward in the timeline instead of drifting along (the latter I'm assuming is what you're aimimg for). I feel like this could be partially averted by having a Menu with things like character profiles unlocked as you progess - that way at least it will feel more like a game than a movie.
I agree that the timeline (particularly in Act 1) can move by too quickly. There are also some instances where the story should better reflect player decisions, or otherwise allow more agency. Act 1 is generally the most problematic in this regard, and will be overhauled in a future update.
In terms of new features, character profiles (or an in-game wiki) are on the to-do list for the future. I'd also like to add bonus unlockable scenes, accessible through the main menu, which would help fill in the gaps for various points in the story that were referenced or not included. Adding some randomized sexual encounters would also help to make the experience more interactive.
Can you have a route to end up exclusively with violet and nick. I like the ones with just the other girls, but something about sharing another girl's guy is hot. Like a route with just them though and none of the other swinger stuff which is cool, just not my cup of tea. Just wondering if that was in the works or planned. If not ill be content with cute luna and haruka. Not really into guys too much anyway.
MFF scenes with Violet, Nick, and the protagonist are indeed something I've been planning to add into the game.
In the future, the swinging scenes from earlier chapters could also be expanded with an option to back out and invite the protagonist instead. This could then turn into a guy-sharing route like you suggested.
Awesome you are the best, thanks. I like your game its a lot of fun. Too many games are creepy af made by some incels. Treat women like dolls and some of the worst are rapey AF. I played one with a succubus and fairy on your shoulders and only you can see them. no trigger warning, no content warning nothing just a violent rape scene against your sister. ive never been more mad at any dev, most disgusting thing id seen in any game. There was no choices allowed and theres an option to try and save her and the game dev laughs and says nah. anyway enough ranting about the worst game ever made in history. You made a cool story and made each character interesting. Your game has a lot of potential, and i look forward to it in the future. :)
Would recommend you go with a black cursor, rather than a light blue one, light blue on a pink background is very hard to see, and there are many instances where you can't see the text choices either. Looking forward to the next update too! :)
One underrated thing that this game has is a organical passage of time, events are spread out between eachother by days/weeks and not every single moment of Rita's daylife is shown. I've seen a lot of H-games here where events happen all to close to eachother and characters will be making love confessions a week after meeting.
On another note, is there any plans of having a Gallery option to rewatch scenes without needing to reload?
A passage of time is definitely something I felt was important, as the relationships and the protagonist's (and friends) descent into depravity takes time to build towards.
As for an in-game Gallery menu, this is the most-requested feature at the moment, and will be the first to be implemented. I would estimate it will be ready 1-2 updates from now.
Hi I'm new to this game and I have a problem saving my game. Everytime I try, it says "An exception has occured". It gives me some option like going a bit back in the game or ignoring, but it still doesn't let me make a save. It says that there are no valid save locations. Hope someone can help!
Hello, and sorry to hear you've been having problems saving. This appears to be an issue for some users with Ren'py games, when there are insufficient permissions for the program.
Right-clicking and choosing to run as administrator, or putting the Casual Desires game files in a different folder appear to be the most common fixes. Let me know if either of these works for you!
Omg this game is so cute (especially for this genre XD). Connor and Josh are especially adorable. They are such dorks and I love that you can choose both of them and not let one be left out.
Save files from older versions of the game can be transferred to newer versions, provided it was saved from the line "Chapter 12: Complete" and before.
If you encounter any issues with save compatibility, please let me know and I will look into it further.
There should be more female protagonist games that let u choose to be hetero or lesbian. Only other one i know is Naughty Lyanna. Really love the game and the lovely designed characters :) Hoping for an android version in the future but its not nessecary^^ Keep up the great work!
I'm looking into fixing this. Currently, the new chapter is hosted on external sites due to the 1 GB file size limit, but I should be able to get direct downloads enabled again for the app soon.
With Lesbian Mode on shouldn't the line of dialogue about being kissed by a guy and wanting a boyfriend be about being kissed by a girl and wanting a girlfriend or is it solely to remove content and not change things?
Is shower girl supposed to be the same name as my character or is that a weird coinkydink?
Apologies for the late reply. With today's update, I made a few changes to the dialogue regarding boys/boyfriends being mentioned, so that lesbian playthroughs will feel more natural. I'll be looking to improve this further in the future as well.
This game is fantastic! I've made one run through chapter 7. I really like how the characters are developing. I did the MC staying innocent as much as possible, and Violet as corrupted as possible. Next run through I'm going to reverse that.
One of the best things is the story isn't forced. It reads like the real world and interactions with friends, co-workers, bosses, and strangers you meet. ...and it also shows how manipulative people can steer others to do things they may not want to do.
This was a really interesting game! I liked how most of it played out. I reached the end of what's currently available and like axt113 said, am also interested in seeing the lesbian scenes expanded upon.
I'm really looking forward to seeing where this goes in the future.
I'm enjoying the game so far, I would like to see the lesbian interactions in the first few chapters expanded a bit (maybe an expanded scene with the girl in the locker room and with the pizza delivery girl, and maybe a photoshoot scene where she does some softcore interactions with another girl), but otherwise it's pretty good.

How much this game weights?
Just came across this, it oddly has a lot of parallels with my own life. It's so rare I get to play a Half-Japanese bisexual girl... xD

And back for another day!

Really enjoyed the play through. the threesome with Luna and Haruka was great! Looking forward to the teased strap-on stuff with Violet!
Is it safe to transfer saves to new versions on Android?
Yes. 0.15 saves should be compatible with 0.16.
Waiting for the full release, and i hope it won't be behind a paywall

Fun game! Excited for more beach scenes
Happy you enjoyed it! There will be lots more content involving the two guys/gals at the beach, as well as some steamy hot springs fun.
WOOO

Thank you for the advice! It works if I keep the extracted files in the 'downloads' folder
Omg this game is so cute (especially for this genre XD). Connor and Josh are especially adorable. They are such dorks and I love that you can choose both of them and not let one be left out.
Glad to hear you've been liking it! Connor and Josh are indeed dorks, which is why the MC enjoys teasing them so much. :P
the link for the mac download doesn't seem to be working anymore.. could you please update it? :)
Apologies for that. Links are now fixed.
Is there a way to update between releases so that save data is maintained?
Save files from older versions of the game can be transferred to newer versions, provided it was saved from the line "Chapter 12: Complete" and before.

Thank you, and glad to hear you like the game! I've played Naughty Lyanna as well, and have enjoyed it quite a lot.
I'll look into making an official Android version as soon as possible, since it's been highly requested.
I love Naughty Lyanna
Is this game still in development?
Yes. Each chapter comes out roughly 2 months after the previous one.
I would estimate the story is around 40% complete at the moment, so there is still much more content to come.
Sweet I can't wait I just found this yesterday and I have enjoyed it
is it possible to make the game downloadable on the itch.io app, so not only on the website?
I'm looking into fixing this. Currently, the new chapter is hosted on external sites due to the 1 GB file size limit, but I should be able to get direct downloads enabled again for the app soon.
Alright, thanks!
more Violet's POV pls
There is more Violet content in today's release. :)
I really like these character models, very high quality and cute. Can I find out in which program they were made?
And will there be an android version?
Glad you like them! I used Daz Studio to create the characters and the images.
As for an Android version, this is also in the works for the near future.
With Lesbian Mode on shouldn't the line of dialogue about being kissed by a guy and wanting a boyfriend be about being kissed by a girl and wanting a girlfriend or is it solely to remove content and not change things?

I've liked the game, I've been working on getting her maxed out as a lesbian and she's built up a nice little yuri harem
This game is fantastic! I've made one run through chapter 7. I really like how the characters are developing. I did the MC staying innocent as much as possible, and Violet as corrupted as possible. Next run through I'm going to reverse that.

Very good game, seeing the progression in each character is interesting. The choices given have a great impact without feeling limiting.
loved it
This was a really interesting game! I liked how most of it played out. I reached the end of what's currently available and like axt113 said, am also interested in seeing the lesbian scenes expanded upon.
I'm really looking forward to seeing where this goes in the future.
Nice VN can't wait to see more, are most of the characters custom haven't seen them before unlike most games on here?
Game works without any problems on Android using the JoiPlay app.
Thanks! There are some public assets used, but I customized most of the characters (especially the protagonist) to be as unique as possible.
I'm enjoying the game so far, I would like to see the lesbian interactions in the first few chapters expanded a bit (maybe an expanded scene with the girl in the locker room and with the pizza delivery girl, and maybe a photoshoot scene where she does some softcore interactions with another girl), but otherwise it's pretty good.
Thanks for the suggestions! I'll definitely be expanding the lesbian content with more/longer scenes, so those ideas would work well.
