Are you updating? Uninstalling the older version lets install, but you lose save files unless backed up in a way i don't know how to do but other people may.
If not updating try and clear your... i do not remember how it's called because i cannot access it on this phone so it may be something else but it is named something like: 'Android Installer' data/cache. On my old phone failed installations due to lack of space would take up space in the instalation program, actively doubling the storage space taken up by the download before installation, tripling if you manage to install and don't delete the download and copy in the installation program (i had a case where a 3.6gb game took up 11gb storage due to that)
Having fun with your games but i HAVE to say that the pp being different colour and model type are messing with the aesthetic. The characters have a greenish-grey sheen and you make the mc's pp that colour that i do not know the name of but it is the colour of an average white guy's skin tone.
Also you're kinda giving us too many things in the game that tell us how we should feel and it is disassociated from the mc's feelings. Aka you literally show us what happened and make it hard to act subjective, it's like you force us to have an objective opinion/mindset the way your story is composed. You leave too little to imagination.
Keep doing it that way until you finish doe, if you wanna make a third game you can keep it in mind. And i gotta mention that for now i didn't get that feel in LCC.
Overall, it does it's job. I am intrigued and entertained. Good job and keep working with passion.
I honestly agree with your 2nd statement. It's the way I started the game and it's hard to detract from it now that I made the game that way. But rest assured that I'm learning as I go on. I also reworked LCC for that reason, but this game might be a bit too late, so I'll just have to keep pushing on.
Forgot to mention but it's not such a small matter that Irene's survival was revealed a bit too soon perhaps? Amnesia makes up for it but yanno. Imagine being told someone's dead and you get all sad and stuff for a minute and you see the mentioned person actually lives.
I don't agree on your about giving too many things dissociated from the mc's feelings. By occasionally following different characters, often for flashbacks, the game is employing a solid storytelling device used in many great novels. It's put to good use here for "showing" some of the character's backstories rather than only "telling" them. The most moving part of the game is of course Emma's backstory, told mostly from her perspective. Sure, by expanding the scope of the narration beyond only following the mc, it creates a disconnect between the mc's knowledge and the player's knowledge, but this is commonplace in video games. It's really just a different style of storytelling to that which creates a one-to-one link between character and player knowledge: neither is inherently better or worse.
.I'm talking about literally not having any reason to side with the mc's bottled anger and frustration. We see what Gwen, Aine and Emma are like before we see what they did to the mc. We get presented reasons to think mc is taking things too hard because we only got meh examples of how they bullied him. We get to know that the mc kept following Aine around when she was bullying him by his own choice cus he was simping too early.
Basically we don't get to sympathise with the mc for getting bullied. My main focus of the rant is how we get to dismay mc's feelings of unease and frustration with ease.
Also the scenes of the other characters without mc tell us too much. Not enough left for speculation. We get to know everyone's personality.
Also Jess reveals her relation to Hera too soon after Hera's reveal. Also Hera gives you the motive literally on her debut.
Personally, I was able to empathise with the mc's experience of bullying despite the points you detailed, but I do understand that it would have been more impactful to have been shown some of the scenes rather than them being described in the abstract. That could have clarified his relationship with Aine while in school, because as is, it isn't entirely clear why he stuck with them. Simping just isn't a realistic reason. So yes, we are left wondering whether there was a good reason, or whether he is complaining over nothing.
I still personally like the scenes which delve into the detail of a character's backstory, revealing a lot about their personality and how it formed. Some games choose to trickle every character's story out over a long course of time (this is done very well in Harem Hotel). However, I like the way this game occasionally chooses to dole out large chunks at a time. Emma's chapter made the most of this, delivering a very moving and self-contained mini story, which wouldn't be the same if it was spread across multiple chapters. The developer has also decided to take a more measured pace with some characters, such as the pizza worker / runner (I forget her name), and these also clicked with me.
Nevertheless, I agree that the pacing isn't always perfect, and Jess' reveal is an example of this. I imagine pacing is very hard to get right given the serialised development cycle of these visual novels. Fifty Shades of Grey is an (extreme) example of how serialised writing can result in a meandering mess (in case you didn't know, it was originally written chapter-by-chapter as a Twilight fan fiction). I think My Bully does an admirable job of threading the needle.
I have a conflict with this game... Because I'm liking it, I like the characters, what's going on in the story, but the more you advance in the chapters, the more you feel that this Dev is improvising the story a bit and that's causing it becomes entangled at such high levels that it seems that everything will be resolved with "the power of the script"... Besides, it is quite noticeable that it is letting itself be influenced by other visual novels and that takes away the personality and style of this game, it starts to feel more like a mix of different visual novels
I just started playing it today and I went on playing for 14 hours. I think it's awesome. I think I have cried like this after more than 6 years, it has soo perfect story.
Please, I am begging you to release the episode 7.
Please reply my comment and tell me when it is getting released......
Jesus Christ. I haven't cried that hard in a long time. It's been a day, and still all I can think about is E's story... it will break my heart if she and Kei don't get some resolution soon. Thank you for making such a moving game, but please, don't elongate her silent suffering for too long. Oh and I hope Kei is able to sort out the harem dynamics sooner rather than later, because I can't forgive him if he doesn't start taking steps to prevent breaking his girls' hearts.
Note to new players: When you play the game, you will have to choose how to name the relationships between Kei and two of the women. Although the game defaults to 'roommate' and 'landlady', the game makes more sense if you go with more familial terminology...
I also wonder how would one make every girl happy. I hope it doesn't end on the saying "If you try to make everyone happy, no one will be happy". How's someone supposed to not try and make every one of them feel like a queen/princess. You just can't choose between them. They're all great.
Ok... I played about an hour and this is exactly like "Masamune-kun's Revenge" I am not saying that I hate this game for it. But I just want to know........
Is the story of your game as same as the anime or it's just similar at the start?
i don't think theres anything you have to know in order to play this, it does take place 3 years before MLMB but I think they are standalones until something obviously connects the two...aside from the people of course...so you're good....FOR NOW
Edit: Both are still in development atm but MBML has more.
MBIML Kei is 23 and not depresso espresso and lives with his 'close friends', LCC Kei is 24 & a very sadge boi which has been living with his colleague for 2 years.
Tell me they're not the same character, there's timetravel majumbo or alternative universe stuff at play or i'll bust your teeth!
I'm joking ofc, but it is very bad play to name two player characters Kei in 2 "heavy-story-entwined" games.
I'm all over the games of this genre at the moment and let me tell you there some very mind boggling stuff all around. So i cannot invest myself into a parallel game story to the full extent if i'm confused as hell.
I'm currently a very salty boii due to personal stuff so excuse me for the rudeness and extensive aura of stupidity and ego emanating from this. When people call me something enough i start acting it.
So far i love MBIML, i'm at Gwen's first time flashback. Everything so far is very much fun to experience.
And i feel the same vibe with LCC, although i do gotta say that the intro is the same and that is a bit of a bore. You know what part.
Has anyone else able to get Sky's 4th sex scenes? Or is it just not in the game yet? Because ive checked 3 times & i honestly dont know what i did wrong. So, can anyone give me some pointers on what choices ive to make & where? Also, 4 images from the gallery (15,16,17&18) are missing.
I might be asking too much but, can you please make another link for media fire or something? When I try to download it with mega or the other link the download won't finish.
I picked this story at random and didn't regret it. When I got to chapter 5 and got introduced to Emma's back story I just couldn't stop crying the entire time. Why do I have to be so invested in story's.
I just finished the game and loved it I can't wait for updates. This just adds more questions for the stories but the best I can do is wait and theories, and you seem like a cool person, so thanks.
Made an account just so I could say the story is amazing. I imagine it'll ultimately have a harem ending, but if there are alt endings where you pick one girl, I'm picking Emma because she's the best. Fite me.
After everything that Emma went through, she definitely deserves MC's love. Anyone who disagrees... I'll meet you in the parking lot of Denny's, and make sure you call yourself an ambulance.
Would be nice to have a similar feature to My Real Desire where you can open your phone to see what music is playing. Both this and LCC have great music tracks and it would be nice to have an easier way to find what the song title is and who the artist is if we'd like to add their stuff to Spotify playlists and such!
So I decided to try both of your games and both have made me tear up. Life changing Choices is good but I have only played what is re-mastered so far and episode 5 of My Bully is My Lover fucking destroyed me. This is not a game but am experience. Thank you.
Well when I have to describe it I would say masterpiece
I cried, laughed as well I did cum but I also learned things for life
But most importantly the story got me so sucked in that I really did feel all kind of emotions and suffered much emotional damage because some of my decision
I really liked to change some and do things an other way but I wanted to play my first run without change things I made wrong so I don't destroy the whole decision game point
So it was a real roller coaster of feelings and I just wanted to say thank you for that great experience and I can't wait to play the next part NiiChan
I had to make an account just to comment and I rarely do this but this is an exception because this is so good the plot is intriguing and each characters are interesting. I had to wake up early in the morning so I could peacefully enjoy this game.

The plot turned out well.
Emy's story is very sad it makes me cry.
Continue to develop, I will Support you.
I m still waiting episode 7.
The download doesnt work on andriod; it just says "App not installed"

Tysm I will try to do that. I appreciate the help a lot!
Was it that issue?
as i was playing this i realized that this is basically a copy of the anime masamune kun's revenge. its pretty much an near identical copy of the show
Having fun with your games but i HAVE to say that the pp being different colour and model type are messing with the aesthetic. The characters have a greenish-grey sheen and you make the mc's pp that colour that i do not know the name of but it is the colour of an average white guy's skin tone.

That was needed and intentional.

Late April or early May, he said.
Looking forward to the next update.
We must protect Emma at all costs. D:
must protec!

Is the story of your game as same as the anime or it's just similar at the start?
Just the setup, it changes a lot as it goes on. Just continue playing.
Love the story so much is episode 7 coming out soon?
Late April or early May.
ok thanks btw amazing work
I can't wait for the episode 7 haha still hoping to see EMMA again ಥ‿ಥ
So is this a continuation of 'Life changing choices'?
Or is it a standalone?
If it's a sequel i can't play it before i play the first one. So someone please educate me on the mater(?) and tell me, like, as soon as possible
i don't think theres anything you have to know in order to play this, it does take place 3 years before MLMB but I think they are standalones until something obviously connects the two...aside from the people of course...so you're good....FOR NOW
Edit: Both are still in development atm but MBML has more.
So you're saying that there are no pre-established relationships in LCC and it is a prequel?
Edit: Thanks btw
No, I suggest you play LCC first. The connections are small atm, but it's only a matter of time till it gets heavier.
Makes no sense at the beginning.
MBIML Kei is 23 and not depresso espresso and lives with his 'close friends', LCC Kei is 24 & a very sadge boi which has been living with his colleague for 2 years.
Tell me they're not the same character, there's timetravel majumbo or alternative universe stuff at play or i'll bust your teeth!

I'm currently a very salty boii due to personal stuff so excuse me for the rudeness and extensive aura of stupidity and ego emanating from this. When people call me something enough i start acting it.
So far i love MBIML, i'm at Gwen's first time flashback. Everything so far is very much fun to experience.
And i feel the same vibe with LCC, although i do gotta say that the intro is the same and that is a bit of a bore. You know what part.
I'm rAnDom as hell i know. But ye'.
I love you.
And i want you to succed.
Go at it ma' boy!
Also! Car driven is too expensive for a pair that has to live in a shared home because they lost jobs.
Nitpicky
No, they're two different characters, just the same name. And just continue playing, I won't spoil anything. XD
Great stuff, really keen for more!
EMMA!!!!!
God, this is the first time I cry playing a NSFW game... I really didn't expect that kind of story... Specially the story of emma...
Please NiiChan use more wherever you go Please i love this song so much
Has anyone else able to get Sky's 4th sex scenes? Or is it just not in the game yet? Because ive checked 3 times & i honestly dont know what i did wrong. So, can anyone give me some pointers on what choices ive to make & where? Also, 4 images from the gallery (15,16,17&18) are missing.
It's same as the third scene on the beach but only different swimsuit, so try to choose another swimsuit :)
I really like Gwen but now NiiChan make me hurt by Emma Story ;-;
NiiChan You damn it
When did this scene happen???🤔🤔
Couldn't have happened yet. This is probably concept art.
Blursed image.
Blessing: obvio
Curse: playing games with my heart
I might be asking too much but, can you please make another link for media fire or something? When I try to download it with mega or the other link the download won't finish.
You can try making a Mega account and using its app. Use the free plan.......
The download won't finish at one go..... But you can resume it again in the app.
Worked for me that way........ Hope it helps
Is this an sandbox game with animations?
i am interested to download this game :)
No sandbox, it's avisual novel. You just make choices
Oh, thats sad :(
The sandbox are boring, a lot of meaningless grinding that can be replaced with a good script
I just started up the game and rocked out to the sax song.
It's such a fucking banger!
not gonna lie best story ever I was playing it for like 5 hours straight so I was wondering
Is the game coming to a end or is there more
Episode’s to come
Apparently this game is far from ending. EP7, which may come out some time later(probably late April), is just the end of the prologue.
More to come
I picked this story at random and didn't regret it. When I got to chapter 5 and got introduced to Emma's back story I just couldn't stop crying the entire time. Why do I have to be so invested in story's.
It's a great story. Life changing choices is another one of their stories. It takes place in the same universe. Check it out
Thanks for the recommendation, I looks like a good story. I also finished Eternum I am looking forward to continue the story.
same
I just finished the game and loved it I can't wait for updates. This just adds more questions for the stories but the best I can do is wait and theories, and you seem like a cool person, so thanks.
Np. Enjoy
Made an account just so I could say the story is amazing. I imagine it'll ultimately have a harem ending, but if there are alt endings where you pick one girl, I'm picking Emma because she's the best. Fite me.
I agree
After everything that Emma went through, she definitely deserves MC's love. Anyone who disagrees... I'll meet you in the parking lot of Denny's, and make sure you call yourself an ambulance.
Excuse me but i couldn't pick one if i was held at gunpoint. They're all precious.
NiiChan, mind telling me whether or not your game punishes the player (in the long run) for trying to go harem?
I was wondering about that too. Just finished ep 6 and was wondering if I messed up getting caught with Gwen by Sky. lol.
Would be nice to have a similar feature to My Real Desire where you can open your phone to see what music is playing. Both this and LCC have great music tracks and it would be nice to have an easier way to find what the song title is and who the artist is if we'd like to add their stuff to Spotify playlists and such!
So I decided to try both of your games and both have made me tear up. Life changing Choices is good but I have only played what is re-mastered so far and episode 5 of My Bully is My Lover fucking destroyed me. This is not a game but am experience. Thank you.
Can you give me a walkthrough :D
When will ep7 come?
NiiChan ...... I want to know whats the music you used at ep6 during sky learned about the MC and Gwen?...... That song was awesome👉👈
Did a shazam of it and it is Bridges by Thomas LaVine.
Thank youuu🥲🥲🥲🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
Honestly I have listened to it quite a few times already. It is such a good song just as these games are great.
emma best character prove me wrong
I approve to this. She has such tragic past, even to the point that she got orders about hurting the person she loves.
Can't do it chief your statement is 100% the truth.
100% agree, i liked her when we first met her but after the whole episode dedicated to her story, i couldnt help but love her
Well when I have to describe it I would say masterpiece
I cried, laughed as well I did cum but I also learned things for life
But most importantly the story got me so sucked in that I really did feel all kind of emotions and suffered much emotional damage because some of my decision
I really liked to change some and do things an other way but I wanted to play my first run without change things I made wrong so I don't destroy the whole decision game point
So it was a real roller coaster of feelings and I just wanted to say thank you for that great experience and I can't wait to play the next part NiiChan
Ps. Sorry english isn't my first language xD
is there another download link other than MEGA?
Yes, there is. Check the bottom three.
@Niichan did u collab with caribidis's eternum coz i saw his art in mbml
We did, on our latest episodes.
Nii-Chan you did not make that anime in the TV... (Third Episode) not Bad XD
Hi Nii-chan, i just wanna ask a question, if this story based on the anime Masamune-Kun Revenge?
Yes, it is.
I had to make an account just to comment and I rarely do this but this is an exception because this is so good the plot is intriguing and each characters are interesting. I had to wake up early in the morning so I could peacefully enjoy this game.
I hope you're doing luck and wish you the best
Thank you for making this game
Lastly gwen is my best girl
played for funny lewd game, lost the instructions, cried. 10/10
is this only episode 6 or 1-6
1 to 6.
Wow Nii-chan.... Eternum really XD nice i mean it it is nice
Will there be harem ending for this game?
It's a harem focused game.
Nice, going to try it now
