So I just noticed that there's a new game, Jennifer, on the VGS offsite members only site. There also seems to be 1 to 3 other games that I've never seen before from him. (I've been a member of VGS Offsite until recently when he switched over to US$20 for 2 months- I don't know when he started that but it's been a few months since I've checked any of his sites)
Are Jennifer and the other newer games worth it?

Jennifer was actually released about 6 months ago, it's a pretty good game compared to his older efforts but it's kinda lackluster when compared to Maddison. Jennifer does have video and voice acting for some scenes instead of just static pictures, but I would have gladly traded this for a longer game. Additionally after like the 4th or 5th time you're going through a scene, the non-skipable video just gets annoying.
The other games (Rachel Part 3, Kelly : Solo, Strippers and Erica & Crystal) were all released today so not sure how they compare. I've been following his blog posts for the last couple months and Rachel Part 3 is supposed to be a huge game on par with Maddison so I'm hopeful for that one. The other 3 he designed to be much shorter and similar to Sarah or Office Party. I'm guessing the other 3 games were designed to be released to the free section as more member games are released since he seems to be reluctant to release his older games (as evidenced by the latest free releases being Lissete and Zoe), which I don't understand since Tammy, Nelena and Sci-Fi girls are all pretty good games. Sci-Fi Erica is kinda garbage in it's current incarnation, though I think he still wants to add to it since there are many things in the game that just don't do anything.
There were big problems with Paypal for his last 2 games so I'll probably wait a week or so to buy these in the hopes that the bugs are worked out by then.

Thanks! I ended up shelling out US$20 for it and so far it's been good. Haven't hit any rough patches with the games I've tried so far. I know exactly what you mean about those earlier games... the animation was a pleasant surprise!

Hi everyone.
This game is now free for those who haven't had a chance to play it yet.
Another lovely game that I'm really enjoying so far, despite the aforementioned slight annoyance of waiting out the videos for the umpteenth time. The videos are generally lovely enough to watch a couple of times anyway, so I don't really mind.
Now then, the main point of my post: After trying some different build-ups I found myself casually strolling through the game code (for educational purposes only, of course ) and I noticed that one part that was irritating me a lot seemed to be actually impossible:
When you take Jen to the restaurant, the meal value can never reach a proper maximum, due to what seems to be a coding bug in file "down16". The old code:
