how do i get beta 42 on itch? Do i have to purchase beta 42 or do i get it for free? I already purchased the game but i don't see an option to get beta 42.
The game was working fine a month ago but now it crashes after the "made with unity" screen and I get a error code 2022.3.9f1_ea401c316338.... Is there a fix for this or am i shit outta luck?
Awesome! Didn't even have to delete anything. Just moved the folder contents to a different drive, booted it up and then dropped the uncorrupted stuff back in and i still had all my character data. Thanx alot!
Hello. To play it on the Quest you have to use the Oculus Link and run it from your computer using SteamVR. This tutorial might help: https://youtu.be/bey6fai0d1I
Some people seem to have downloaded the game from a pirate site where they infected the game with a virus. Be careful and only download the game from our official sources: https://linktr.ee/ZnelArts
Really sorry I supported this dev. Yeah pirates are thieves, but knowingly uploading your game infected with malware is a really crap thing to do. I'd venture to say there could be legal ramifications as well.
He only did it on pirate sites apparently, but that still is super scummy. He added malware files and uploaded it himself to the pirate sites. Look. I get piracy sucks. But hat is not the appropriate response.
Piracy might be less of a problem if they didn't charge $30 for an early access game, and then withhold months worth of updates because you don't pay them even more money on a monthly basis, and then not even let you download older versions when the newest one contains game breaking bugs
We only charge for people that believe our game is worth $30. If you don't consider it is worth that then why do you want to play it? We do not withold updates, they are ready as soon as we get them ready, Patreon builds are not good to be published publicly on stores like Itch.io
We don't have and never had malware in our game, not sure where you are downloading the game from with malware but for sure is not official and most likely is not legal
I bought the game here. I think people should pay for things. However developers should not be committing cybercrimes over what 20 preceived missed sales from people who wouldn't have bought it anyway. I read about how the dev uploaded a version with malware added to a file hosting site that begins with a K, popular amongst the piracy crowd. That is moe inexcusable than the lame excuse of this being 3 versions behind. Just be honest. Those paying the monthly get a benefit. The game is incomplete. 3 versions back is just that much earlier in the paid beta test.
is there currently a way (or will be) to do multiple actions in the non-vr mode? For example, have your left hand and right hand grab a body part while simultaneously using your tongue and "bullet"?
Right now doing one action ends the prior one. In my mind it would make sense to be able to lock, queue, or loop certain actions to be able to do them simultaneously. Probably even a free camera mode.
Mac user. After downloading and unzipping, the internal verification shows the app as damaged. My external unzip app also states the file can't be extracted. Multiple redownloads also haven't worked.
Is there a solution that is known to work with this game?
Edit: I found an up to date method that works. For anyone else who has this issue, I found the solution from the YT channel named "Solo Promoter" with the video title starting with "How to Fix App is damaged and can't be opened."
Not quite sure if you answered this question in a previous comment, but what is the difference between buying the $29.99 version here on itch VS the $19.99 instant build + permanent itch access key subscription on Patreon? I downloaded the demo on steam when it was still available and really enjoyed playing and I'm planning on buying the full version but I'm not quite sure why I would not just pay via Patreon where its $10 dollars cheaper vs itch when Patreon also gives me access to the latest build. Sorry if there's something really obvious I missed.
Hello, on Patreon you have access to the latests dev builds with the latest content. That is the only benefit of Pledging on Patreon, however you don't get free updates there once you stop your pledge.
My apologies if my confusion is just rooted in a fundamental misunderstanding but doesn't the $19.99 patreon subscription includes a permanent itch key that'll allow you to receive updates 3 versions behind? I guess my main question is that if there's a difference in buying the game for $29.99 directly or receiving a key for $19.99 instead and then canceling the subscription.
great game ! I haven’t found anything that’s even close to the graphics and realistic features found on TVS !!
my wish list would include adding additional chair options, the two are good but a kneeling in front of the chair would be good.
Plus some additional interactions after submission when the hero's are not restrained.
Also it would be nice if the heros could move with the “tool” interactions. It happened once when a “tool” was left in and the hero was moving with it by itself. It was probably a fluke, but it looked good.
Also, how do I download other characters to the menu besides the ones I create ?
you have to watch for updates and then download the new version and install it. I actually purchased the game a second time not realizing it was possible to download the update at no extra charge.
correct, you just have to log into Itch and download it again. It allowed me to buy it twice because I didn’t go through my library. I just clicked the buy it. 🤷🏽♂️.
Oh well, I would have fought to get a refund, but it’s a well done game, so I figured that it was worth it.
1.the Chair platform doesn't swivel which would be nice to have so you can see the stats screen at the same time as her dancing
2. Would there be any possibility of being able to give the subject piercings or collars WHILE experimenting on then in future updates?
3. So you think you could add a bin for the serum area cause I like to farm the ingredients and use them but then I have no space left in the fridge and a half filled capsule of breast milk with nothing to do with it
4. Is there going to be more 'torture' options in the future? Knives, waterboarding, etc
5. This isn't really important but I tried to shoot the dematerializer at the robot and it just went through it. I kinda expected something like the robot dying then a new one popping out from the roof and then going "what, did you really think that would work?" Then killing you
thanks! And keep up the good work. This is an amazing game, one of the best out there
I got this game on Patreon. When I try to play in Oculus quest 3 via Steam VR it outright pauses whole computer. Ho to play this and LaDouche-Beta-16 on Oculus (Le Douche suffers that it is showing only one frame in VR mode)
Sometimes I get the "exception has occurred" message with instructions to screenshot the info and send if to you through email or discord, I can't find either of those though, do you know where I'd find those to send it?
I bought the game off itch.io and tried to download it, but after unzipping it and trying to launch it it says the file is damaged and it won't let me open the game. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I did but it still didn't work, I think it's an issue with my computer because when I try to override it the "open anyways" isn't an option and I can't add a new developer to identified devs.
hello, cant seem to find my older comment, but anyways i just wanted to say i love the idea, found it from steam demo, would love to buy it. due to reasons i can only pay in steam, and i noticed its no longer available in steam search. will it be available in steam in the future ? THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HARD WORK, looking forward to playing it.
Hey! What do you think about the ability to import models from a computer? Like using any models that are not made in game? I know that it's so hard, but I think it'll be very impressive.
Lower the quality and check your frame rate. My game would stutter and crash on the highest quality but once I lowered it from ultra to medium and made sure fps stayed at 60, the game ran with no problems and no crashes.

how do i get beta 42 on itch? Do i have to purchase beta 42 or do i get it for free? I already purchased the game but i don't see an option to get beta 42.
Hello, its up now on Itch, just download it from the game page https://znelartsvr.itch.io/the-villain-simulator
thanks
Is there anyway in the future for us to get a small quest standalone version
It is not in the scope, sorry
I want to turn on Vr mode,but he says-please put on your V headset,if there are any steam Vr issues,click the button below for help. *(
Hello, this has helped users with VR issues: https://thevillainsimulator.com/wiki/index.php/VR_Help
It helped, thanks
The game was working fine a month ago but now it crashes after the "made with unity" screen and I get a error code 2022.3.9f1_ea401c316338.... Is there a fix for this or am i shit outta luck?
Hello, try removing the AppData folder as explained here and see if that works:
https://thevillainsimulator.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ
Awesome! Didn't even have to delete anything. Just moved the folder contents to a different drive, booted it up and then dropped the uncorrupted stuff back in and i still had all my character data. Thanx alot!
How do we play this game using VR? I have a meta quest 3
Hello. To play it on the Quest you have to use the Oculus Link and run it from your computer using SteamVR. This tutorial might help: https://youtu.be/bey6fai0d1I
Why cant we, peiple who had payes 30 bucks on itch, have the same version than patreon
Because Patreon versions are pre-production builds not ready to be published
any plans to add male villans and allow the player to be female it would be nice since so many adult games are already only made for men
Sorry... we do not have plans for that
同意。不幸的是，这种类型的游戏很少
whats this about a virus?
Some people seem to have downloaded the game from a pirate site where they infected the game with a virus. Be careful and only download the game from our official sources: https://linktr.ee/ZnelArts
Cheers
that is unfortunate is the virus on the itch version? or just the pirate site
All official versions/platforms are safe and free of virus.
that is a relief i will some day buy it on here the one with free updates of course
Really sorry I supported this dev. Yeah pirates are thieves, but knowingly uploading your game infected with malware is a really crap thing to do. I'd venture to say there could be legal ramifications as well.
How is malware detectable in this game?
He only did it on pirate sites apparently, but that still is super scummy. He added malware files and uploaded it himself to the pirate sites. Look. I get piracy sucks. But hat is not the appropriate response.

We don't have and never had malware in our game, not sure where you are downloading the game from with malware but for sure is not official and most likely is not legal
they literally deserve it, are you mad you have a virus now?
I bought the game here. I think people should pay for things. However developers should not be committing cybercrimes over what 20 preceived missed sales from people who wouldn't have bought it anyway.

I just sponsored $19.9 on Patreon, how can I get a previous version of the game? I want to play beta33 version.
Hello, older versions are not available.
how to use cheat mod
Press O in desktop mode
Sorry, i mean whats the cheat code of beta41
Cheat Options is only for dev builds and is not available on Itch builds, sorry. We need to fix the UI to not show that. Sorry for the confusion
is there currently a way (or will be) to do multiple actions in the non-vr mode?
For example, have your left hand and right hand grab a body part while simultaneously using your tongue and "bullet"?
Right now doing one action ends the prior one. In my mind it would make sense to be able to lock, queue, or loop certain actions to be able to do them simultaneously. Probably even a free camera mode.
我在哪裡可以設置中文
Where can I set Chinese
From the Settings menu
beta 41 doesnt have it
Mac user. After downloading and unzipping, the internal verification shows the app as damaged. My external unzip app also states the file can't be extracted. Multiple redownloads also haven't worked.
Hello, that is a known issue on Mac wth some games, try googling it, there is a solution.
Is there a solution that is known to work with this game?
Edit: I found an up to date method that works. For anyone else who has this issue, I found the solution from the YT channel named "Solo Promoter" with the video title starting with "How to Fix App is damaged and can't be opened."
also, if i buy the game on here i don't have to pay monthly, right? Like on Patreon.
That is correct
thanks

Also, how do I download other characters to the menu besides the ones I create ?
Thanks, keep up the updates coming.
If possible, it would be better to allow players to choose to remove the character's shoes and socks by hand.
There is a technical limitation that prevents us from doing that. Sorry.
you probably get asked this a lot so sorry but if i buy the latest version will it update when new versions come out or do i have to buy those too?
you have to watch for updates and then download the new version and install it. I actually purchased the game a second time not realizing it was possible to download the update at no extra charge.
ok thanks so dont have to buy the next update
correct, you just have to log into Itch and download it again. It allowed me to buy it twice because I didn’t go through my library. I just clicked the buy it. 🤷🏽♂️.
Oh well, I would have fought to get a refund, but it’s a well done game, so I figured that it was worth it.
Amazing game! Just wanted to ask if there will be futas or dickgirls in the future? Or are they already in the game and I missed them?
Hello. We still don't have that planned, sorry.
👍
It's a great game, but a couple things.
1.the Chair platform doesn't swivel which would be nice to have so you can see the stats screen at the same time as her dancing
2. Would there be any possibility of being able to give the subject piercings or collars WHILE experimenting on then in future updates?
3. So you think you could add a bin for the serum area cause I like to farm the ingredients and use them but then I have no space left in the fridge and a half filled capsule of breast milk with nothing to do with it

thanks! And keep up the good work. This is an amazing game, one of the best out there
Thanks for the words and rich feedbac, here are my comments:
Thanks again for the nice comments.
Is there any sock removal, feet tickling, or worship? That would be great!
Still wondering on this, would be happy to purchase if that stuff is included :)
Is it possible to add Chinese?
It is already added
I got this game on Patreon. When I try to play in Oculus quest 3 via Steam VR it outright pauses whole computer. Ho to play this and LaDouche-Beta-16 on Oculus (Le Douche suffers that it is showing only one frame in VR mode)
OMG. Nothing short of brilliant.
Sometimes I get the "exception has occurred" message with instructions to screenshot the info and send if to you through email or discord, I can't find either of those though, do you know where I'd find those to send it?
I bought the game off itch.io and tried to download it, but after unzipping it and trying to launch it it says the file is damaged and it won't let me open the game. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Maybe the file got corrupted when downloading, try downloading it again
I did but it still didn't work, I think it's an issue with my computer because when I try to override it the "open anyways" isn't an option and I can't add a new developer to identified devs.
Hey Hey, nice game you have there :) , just one question: how do I increase submission for the chair thingy? thx alot
Hi, thanks. You have to perform the actions heroines like.
how should i use the serum？ I cant find the syringe
How do you even lick? I use a Mac I'm probably retarded because I can't figure it out.
Are all the characters in this game depicted as 18+?
yes of course!
So I have a question as description says that
"Itch.io builds will be 3 versions behind the current beta build on Patreon."
What will happen when final version will be released on Patreon?
Once we have a final version we will eventually publish it everywhere once it has been fully tested and polished.
wait what do you mean by everywhere
every platform we are or can
awesome
if I buy it for 29.99 i wll get future updates?
Yes, it won't download the new update automatically though
hello, cant seem to find my older comment, but anyways i just wanted to say i love the idea, found it from steam demo, would love to buy it. due to reasons i can only pay in steam, and i noticed its no longer available in steam search. will it be available in steam in the future ? THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HARD WORK, looking forward to playing it.
Hello, unfortunately Steam removed the game and it won't be available on Steam anymore.
DAMN IT !! shit ! I see... hmm. i guess i will find a way to get my hands on this masterpiece. thank you. ... ..... GODDAMMNIT !
again Thank you very much for your fantastic creation! keep up the great work !
shame steam is holding the game back, i know the reasons and its bogus they just worried this become the #1 seller
Hey! What do you think about the ability to import models from a computer? Like using any models that are not made in game? I know that it's so hard, but I think it'll be very impressive.
That would be so cool but is technically impossible at this point
Is there any navel tickling content here? It sounds insignificant but I'm hoping its here.
Is coming in a couple of months in beta 44
Cool, also, what the difference between the 30$ and the 8$ bundle?
$30 you will own the game forever and get free updates.
$8 you get access only to the latest dev build with all new features that will be coming soon. There wont be free updates on this mode.
I can't get this to work on VR, it crashes steamvr every time
Lower the quality and check your frame rate. My game would stutter and crash on the highest quality but once I lowered it from ultra to medium and made sure fps stayed at 60, the game ran with no problems and no crashes.
going to be honest this is one the best sex sim's i have ever played and im always on the hunt for adult games like this
Thank you!
what are some other game you tried?
