I'm waiting for the end of the game so I can finally play with satisfaction and enthusiasm without that screen that says it's still in development appearing...
Okay, I just gotta say that I simply love Alex and his cocky attitude. "I'm into it," just like Connor, haha. I know there's more to Alex, but I hope he keeps his cockiness at least in his hookup route.
And I'm really impressed by the number of choices the game offers. Great work!
Thanks! Offering so many choices is a lot of work, but I think the results are worth it.
Alex's attitude is actually determined by whether you call him out on acting like a stereotypical celeb. He'll definitely retain his cockiness, but his personality will be more authentic if you go beyond the surface, regardless if you're doing a hookup route, romance route, or just stay friends.
If you want him to remain super cocky, never calling him out is a valid option! It cuts off the romance route, but if you're just looking to be fuck buds, that won't matter, of course.
I can only imagine how much work that must be. But the level of reactivity and player agency resulting from all that work is what clearly sets your game apart from the rest—alongside its great aesthetics and dialogue, of course.
And thanks for the insights regarding Alex! That makes a lot of sense. Well, since I'm a sucker (pun very much intended) for his looks and smug celeb personality, he can let it show all he wants in my playthrough, haha.
hi! is this game available for download on a Chromebook? I've tried both links provided and nothing is working :( could be that I don't know how to open it tho lol.
I'm not entirely sure if the game can work on a Chromebook. I think you may be able to use the PC version if it has Linux. If it does, once you download the file, unzip the folder then launch the game by double-clicking FreshmenPhysicalEducation.exe in the unzipped folder. You could also try the Itch.io app to download it: https://itch.io/app
But I'm not familiar with Chromebook restrictions. A Google search popped up results for turning on Linux on a Chromebook, which you may need to do first. If that doesn't work, the game may not be compatible, unfortunately.
Yes, that's where the game ends currently. It'll continue in the next story update, which is in preproduction while I finish up the next release. The next release will have a new Grind'm scenario.
The story update will pick up right where this version leaves off with playing with the toys, then lead into the following day's hangouts with Matt & Evan. Those two will be the main focus of the update with Marco and Leo as a secondary focus.
I mistyped the unlock code in the early access version of the game. I fixed that for the final release, so it sounds like you have that early version. Try redownloading the game from here and run through that section again, then it should unlock.
I don't have a time frame yet, but it shouldn't be too much longer. I no longer give specific time frames until I'm 100% certain I can meet those dates since last year proved I'm bad at estimating. I'll make a post here when I do feel confident about dates.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by updates for a testing scene. If you mean the test scene I have on Patreon, it's just a little behind-the-scenes thing someone can download if they're interested in seeing how the game began. All the status reports on there are about the progress being made on the game's next releases.
I release updates when they are ready, and I endeavor to make the time between each quicker. I am a single person making this, though, so anything that takes me out of commission (illness, family emergencies, etc.) will unfortunately cause some delays.
I can understand if it seems like nothing much is happening from your vantage point, but I do work on this pretty much every day, so progress is being made and there will be new updates soon.
Sorry for my behavior that's so insensitive of me, I clearly never thought that your sole making all these amazing work thou'. It's just how I was soooo excited for more scenes with Profs got me can't think straight sometimes. Again I'm so sorry for my actions and good luck with your amazing VN
It is not, don't click on any links that claims to have an updated version in a comment. I'll only post release info via a dev post on here, and that includes when there is an early access release elsewhere.
this is the reason why i try not to play games in development, because it's just too good and i end up hyperfixating on it when there's limited content (but no rush! there's already so much within these updates it's crazy 😭) no but seriously, this is one of the best visual novels i've played in a while, and the cgs and storyline are so well made! i definitely like marco the most since he's so flirty but respectful at the same time, but matt is definitely a close second because his model is just chef's kiss. it must be very hard to do such an ambitious project like this one, so please take your time and don't rush! this game is already amazing, and i can't wait to see what future updates have in store
Thank you so much! I really liked getting to show the side of Marco that wasn't just all flirting, all the time, and I'm glad it won you over.
As for rushing, I definitely appreciate the sentiment, but I do need to pick up the pace. There's a lot of story left to tell, and I want you all to be able to play it! I am making sure not to burn myself out, though.
Right now I'm still finishing all the art for the next Grind'm update, but I'm simultaneously working on the story update to follow. The story update will have a lot of good stuff for both Marco and Matt, so I think you'll like it!
Hello Guys, im playing this again in a new laptop after my old one died on me. I remember Dominic groping Connor but im unable to get to that. Can anyone help me out 🥲😭😭.
This is just to inform you that come of the end of May, I may stop supporting your game and you on Patreon.
I really do NOT want to do this, but Patreon made some change to how one logs into their site and, since the beginning of May, it will NOT recognize my email address. So now I cannot log into my Patreon account and I cannot get to any of the pages of the Creators I support, such as yourself, and your content there.
I contacted Patreon about this weeks ago and they have admitted they caused this problem, but they seem in no hurry to fix it, assuming they are actually even trying to correct it.
Since I cannot access your content on Patreon, there is no point in my making payments there and I will just have to buy or get what I can here on Itch.io.
I'm very disappointed by this since I have been a Patreon supporter since September 2022. I've given them until this Friday, May 30th, to solve this, but if they won't or can't fix this problem by then, well, I'll contact my bank and have Stop Payments put on all the Creators I support.
Sorry to hear that Patreon is being such a hassle! I Of course it's completely understandable not to pay for something you can't access. Thank you for the support you were able to give until now!
Thank you. This is upset to me because I really enjoyed playing your game and you offered so much extra content on Patreon that I how won't be able to get. :(
Your game is my favorite animated novel so far. I don’t mind that it doesn’t have sound cuz my imagination is more than enough. I’m considering becoming a member of your Patreon, but first I need to know when the next update is coming. I don’t think it’s appropriate to have sex with Matt or having him as a boyfriend, since he’s a childhood best friend, so my guy will be Marco. He’s so cute, and his personality is exactly my type. I hope we can choose him as a boyfriend. Very awesome job, you made him so cute and all characters as well. The stories are awesome, it feels so real. Keep the awesome job!
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it! I'm no longer guessing at release dates, since I'm really bad at estimating, but I do updates on Patreon that list out what all I've completed for the next release and what remains to be done. I don't think it'll be too much longer, though. Once I have specific dates for early access and the free release, I'll post it on here.
Marco is a romance option, so you can definitely pursue that with him. Matt will manage to find his own fun 😉

Well, I'm glad you're invested and like it 😅 More is on its way!

question, are there only three days inside of the game available? it immediately ends my game after the scene with will giving connor the toy
Yep! That's where we are at right now.
Yes, that's where the game ends currently. It'll continue in the next story update, which is in preproduction while I finish up the next release. The next release will have a new Grind'm scenario.

i can't unlock Will CG#10, the scene come up in the game but it doesn't appear in Gallery.
I mistyped the unlock code in the early access version of the game. I fixed that for the final release, so it sounds like you have that early version. Try redownloading the game from here and run through that section again, then it should unlock.
this game is amazingly well done , the story line the multiple routes the graphics ,,, please keep it up , the industry needs you
Thank you!
When is the next Patreon Release likely to come out?
I don't have a time frame yet, but it shouldn't be too much longer. I no longer give specific time frames until I'm 100% certain I can meet those dates since last year proved I'm bad at estimating. I'll make a post here when I do feel confident about dates.
Nice game. :->
Thank you!
hi, how can I unlock the second Grind'm hookup?
It hasn't been released yet. It's the focus of the next update I'm releasing, which is what I'm wrapping up creating now.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by updates for a testing scene. If you mean the test scene I have on Patreon, it's just a little behind-the-scenes thing someone can download if they're interested in seeing how the game began. All the status reports on there are about the progress being made on the game's next releases.

I can understand if it seems like nothing much is happening from your vantage point, but I do work on this pretty much every day, so progress is being made and there will be new updates soon.
can you end up with Evan? Hes really hot and yeah im just asking
You can, I added him as a romance option after popular request. He'll have some major scenes in the next story update.
Sorry for my behavior that's so insensitive of me, I clearly never thought that your sole making all these amazing work thou'. It's just how I was soooo excited for more scenes with Profs got me can't think straight sometimes. Again I'm so sorry for my actions and good luck with your amazing VN
No worries, I understood it came from a place of excitement!
That`s not an official update, or yes?
It is not, don't click on any links that claims to have an updated version in a comment. I'll only post release info via a dev post on here, and that includes when there is an early access release elsewhere.
Thank's men, i really want to see your official update jejejeje
