HOW CAN I ADD GIRLS?

Adding new girls is very easy for anyone with the ability to copy/paste/rename a
file. It takes 3 easy steps:

1) Create a new folder in the 'game\girls\' directory; the folder name will be the
girl's name. A structure like 'FIRSTNAME LASTNAME' works best, but simpler or more
complex names are possible. Names should be under 40 characters in total for
optimal display.

2) Copy all the pictures you want to use for that girl in that folder.

3) Rename all the picture files using some of the tags below (it might not be
necessary if you got the girl pack from another sim brothel game, since many common
tags are supported).

A picture can have several tags in its name: for instance 'maid_anal_sex123.png'
will receive the 'maid', 'anal' and 'sex' tags.

There is only one mandatory tag and it is 'profile'. You must have at least one
picture with this tag as a part of its name for the game to work. For other tags,
the profile picture will be used if it is missing.

Done! If you're starting a new game, that's it. If you're using a saved game, the
new girls will become available at the start of the next week in-game.

Tags that are recognized as of this version:

�
For profiles: �profile�, �battle_sprite��, �beauty�, �card�, �ent� :
�profile�, �model� : �profile�, �quest�, �shop�, �swim�
�
For portraits: �portrait�
�
For resting: �rest�, �ecchi�

For the waitress job: �wait�, �waitress�, �bunny�, �maid�

�
For the dancer job: �dance�, �dancing�, �sing�, �strip�
�
For the masseuse job: �massage�, �masseuse�, �naked�, �nude�
�
For the geisha job: �geisha�, �date�, �etiquette�, �kimono�
�
For service: �service�, �blowjob�, �oral�, �mast�, �titty�

For sex: �sex�, �fuck�, �XXX�

�
For anal: �anal�, �ass�
�
For fetish: �fetish�, �bdsm�, �beast�, �best�, �bondage�, �hardcore�

�
For lesbian/group sex: �group�, �les�

Finally, if you want to make a girl folder with all the possible pictures used by
the game as of this version, you will need all of the following tags (or one of
their equivalent): �profile�, �portrait�, �rest�, �wait�, �dance�, �massage�,
�geisha�, �service�, �sex�, �anal�, �fetish�, �group�, �les�

WHAT IS THIS GAME?

As a fan of the original Sim Brothel and some of the games it inspired, as well as
games like Slave maker, I have wanted for a long time to 'make it my own', and try
my hand at coding.

I first encountered Ren'py when I made a small mod for the excellent game 'Ashford
Academy', and since then I've been interested in the possibilities offered by
Ren'py to a non-coder like myself. This is why I embarked on this project a couple
of years ago, tinkering with Ren'py and Python until I could get it to a passably
playable state. I have now decided to release it to the world, to see if I can get
some people interested in playing it and giving some feedback.

My philosophy for this game was simple: to make the game I wanted to play. It had
to have some story and flavor, a user-friendly UI, and quality art. I also wanted
to reduce micro-management to an acceptable level. For this reason I took the
liberty of withdrawing some traditional Sim Brothel features that I personally
found annoying, such as juggling girls between many brothels.

This game is not an open-ended project. I am just one guy and my goal is to deliver
a finished game in a realistic time frame, complete with a full story and balanced
mechanics. After that, lack of time and focus means that I won't be able to keep
adding new features, but I'll gladly hand this over to the community.

By the way, anyone feel free to tinker with the code and mod anything you like
about this game, although a serious word of warning is in order: I am no
programmer, I used this project as an opportunity to teach myself some coding with
ren'py and python. Therefore, the game is poorly written, with A LOT of redundant
and badly written code. If I could I'd start it all over and clean up everything,
but I'm afraid I lack the time and energy to do it for the time being. So if you do
have a look under the hood, then good luck, and, uh, sorry�

WHAT'S IN THIS VERSION?

As of this version ([version_number]), the game's core mechanics are working and
more or less complete. There is no story as of yet, although there is a fairly long
introduction scene and interesting gossip and events in town for flavor.

In the next version, I will focus on reducing the number of bugs and improving game
balance with people's feedback, then extend the story through Chapter 1.

As it is a one-man project, the game has not been extensively play-tested: it is

more likely than not that it is poorly balanced and ridden with bugs. As of this
version there's a very real possibility that you might mess up a saved game.
{b}Play at your own risks!{/b}. But if you do, I would love some feedback.

HOW CAN I HELP?

Play the game! By now I've spent so much time working on this game that I have
genuinely zero idea if it's any good. If you spot a bug, a typo (I am not a native
speaker), have some ideas to improve gameplay, game balance or fun, please speak
up, this will help me enormously.

Although I won't rework all game mechanics from scratch, I am expecting to make a
lot of adjustments to make the game more balanced and fun, so all your suggestions
will be read and welcome.

If you're an experienced programmer and want to look under the hood or tinker with
the game, by all means, do it! (Keep in mind that I don't really know how to code,
however, so expect to be horrified by what you see.)

Finally, if you have some art to recommend such as good hentai series or music that
fit the flavor of the game, by all means, do it.
