Mothers and Daughters
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Max (name customizable) worked hard to finish high school and passed with the relevant grades to get into a local college. There was one thing Max failed at in high school – losing his virginity. Can you help him with that?
You can pursue all the women you meet along the way, both mothers and daughters. What will the daughters say if they find out you’re also dating their moms?
Can you juggle the demands of dating many women at once? There’s only one way to find out!
The game uses two mechanics to track your progress with each character.
Affinity is a percentage-based point system. It is calculated based on the points you could have earned with that character. For those LI's you're interested in you should aim for High Affinity.
Persona is your attitude to each character. Either a Bad Boy or Nice Guy. Each character has a preference for Bad Boy or Nice Guy.
The difficulty system doesn't change the content of the game, just your journey through it. In easy mode, the threshold for attaining high affinity will be lower than in harder difficulties.
A walkthrough hint system is only available in easy mode.
This is my first game, I hope you enjoy it.
I am a freelance developer and this game is currently a hobby development. If you want to support, great. Obviously, I'll be able to spend more time on it. Otherwise, I'll just enjoy doing this as a hobby.

Is there a way to have a notification of affinity change from choices or does one have to wait until next time you have access to the phone
In the next update, the phone will be accessible almost all the time, allowing you to see the status changes whenever you want.
Time to release 0.5.2.0 to the public before its leaked is all I can say. Its been a very long time since the last public release.
The high res of the game and life like close-ups, tempted me to purchase the game. Only to realise that there isn't much I was loosing out on the free version.
I agree with the reviews sighting that there isn't a story line as such that comes clear, but I like it so. I makes the player a story writer. I also, agree that we need more sex scenes.
The walkthroughs are also not so informative. Looking forward to background music, more sex scenes in the gallery and interesting plot twists.
I agree. The game has amazing potential but i'm waiting until we get more story or scenes with women. I love how all the female characters actually look different.
Hi dev first of all the game is great and what fetishes can we see in future
If we pay to get version 0.5.2 will we automatically get access to future updates?
Yes, you get access to future updates.
Its a sandbox!
dang the least you could do is unlock version 4 for us poor ppl
is there already a sex scene in the paid version ?
kinda messed up the only free download is from last year man other games are more up to date then this
Having played the free version, I will agree with most people's complaints about there being too many characters/branching stories, the MC looking a lot older than what his age is supposed to be, and there being no sex scenes. Personally, I don't mind the no sex scenes early on. I look at this story as a "slow burn" type of story where more effort is put into the story telling than the action. Some other people have mentioned that some of the female characters look ugly, which in my opinion, I disagree with. I think there's a wide variety of types in this game and I feel like the older women actually look their part in here unlike most VN games.
I personally think that this game has a lot of potential and a great foundation, however I feel like there are too many game mechanics/characters/stories to follow that people might get burned out. I would love to see more of this game and I'm worried that this might be too much for a small dev team to tackle.
lol read your comment and deleted the download i just did before i even played it
If you feel "too many game mechanics/characters/stories to follow", try playing LoSeSb :)
I played the free version of the game, so I'll provide a critique accordingly. Firstly forget about any sexual content or fucking with any woman in the free version, that's out of the question. Secondly in the free version, the adult content is limited to just some rubbing and very basic stuff, even those with clothes on. From a storytelling perspective, there are way too many characters, a mistake I've seen in several other games. In my opinion this stems from the writer's desire to add excessive diversity and too many plans, leading to confusion. I've seen the same mistake in a few other games where the developer stuffed the game with 40 characters, each with their own corruption subplot and separate story. However each character only consisted of 3-4 scenes in a 1-hour game to fill it up with all of them and there was no adult content whatsoever. Typically these games end up exhausting the developer due to their magnitude, and the developer decides to move on to something else. We can't even talk about the characters or their stories because there are too many so we can't spend enough time with them in the game. Every 2 minutes, a new character is introduced. Additionally, there are phone and computer mechanics that you can interact with. It's a nice idea, but adding a phone and computer mechanics, money and job mechanics, difficulty mechanics, and affinity which is percentage-based point system on top of so many characters is overkill, even a team of 10 developers cannot come up with a quality product for this game without spending a considerable amount of time (at least 8-9 months of consistent work time maybe even more) and we have SINGLE developer in this game. From a story standpoint, I couldn't see one honestly. I played the free version of the game but I'm still not sure what the story is, I can't even remember. In short, if you're going to play the free version, don't bother, it's not worth it. You could try the paid version but the issues I mentioned does not seem fixable at all. I think the paid version goes up to the 5th day, so maybe some adult scenes have been added but I'm not sure if it's worth it. It's up to you.
Great comment, and applicable to so many games
This game needs half of the systems and 1/5th of the girls. Great comment
It's a common tactic because it throws a wide net for everyone to find "their girl." The dev wants to give you a lot of options, so you will get invested in at least one or more of the girls and keep playing. It doesn't matter if the storylines are completed, just that you come back for the next update.
You could also look at it as a positive if the dev is receptive to feedback. I like the idea of starting the game with a lot of girls, then finding out who the players like and going from there. It's like super smash brothers. There's a character for everyone. But, again, that's assuming the dev actually cares about player feedback.
Player feedback is always important.
There are many female characters because every mother needs a daughter, and every daughter needs a mother. In early story drafts, there were too many daughters whose mothers were professors at the college and had side jobs. Adding more mothers to separate those roles also meant more daughters. The characters who interest players the most will get more screen time outside the central story arc.
If we look at the game mechanics, there are essentially three. The Affinity and Persona systems are used to progress with characters, with difficulty used to raise or lower the levels needed. The phone allows the player to track that progression, and the computer is just a larger version of the phone.
Jobs are just another way for players to spend time with various characters. This is no different than agreeing to spend time with characters for other reasons, such as Kimberley's yoga class. Money was added because players simply didn't want to 'work' without a monetary reward, even though that wasn't the point. With money comes a need to spend it.
You can ignore all this and just focus on the girls. Like with modern FPS games, you don't need to gather resources, craft, or upgrade if that's not your play style.
Thank you for using paragraphs...unlike many of the commentators!
I've purchased the game and have played it, think its got the beginnings of a great game. Yes, there are binary choices - if you choose A, you miss out on B's scene/story development, etc. - but isn't that true in life as well?
Keep up the work Spin, its very much appreciated and I look forward to future updates!
Will the free version ever have more content?
how much more content is there in the paid version than the free one?
Hi, the free one is version 3, consisting of the first three playable days. The paid version is version 5, and we're currently halfway through the fifth playable day. The paid version also gives you access to future releases as the game is still in development.
I think that is plenty fair. Keep up the good work Spin256
Is the game finished or are you still planning to update it? I am considering to buy it or even supporting on patreon looks like a promising game!
It is still in progress; a lot more to add. It's a slow-burn game, focusing on building a rapport with the characters and creating sexual tension.
You should buy it, I did, and was sadface when I got to the end of the current update. I'm going through it again, looking for alternative choices so I can explore all the content. Yes, its a slow burn game, but delayed gratification is so much more rewarding than finding yourself having sex with everyone in the first few minutes of gameplay.
Ugly women, no story, too much focus on the mobile and computer interface you are only able to utilize during location decisions and freeromaing, which means it can only be accessed once per day, when you choose to go to the gym or someone's house, and at night, in your room, because that's the only time you do any location decisions or freeroaming.
The mothers all look like mummified corpses sucking on a lemon, the daughters are boring.
The only compliment I can think of, is that the backgrounds/locations/rooms look good, and proper for the setting of this game.
I would like to know what's the play time?
At an average reading speed and replaying to get multiple paths, The estimated play time is about 3h. If you skip scenes and/or don't replay for the alternative paths, playtime will be less.
plz make it in play browser
this definitely needs prego options gimmy gimmy
how's v5 coming along?
out now
niiiice
When unhooking Cath's bra there is a line referring to the MC as "Max" instead of the chosen name.
Full sentence is "It's not difficult, Max."
Thanks, will be fixed in next version.
will the free version remain at 3.3?
Yes. Unfortunately, keeping it free isn't sustainable for the amount of time I'm spending on it. Gotta eat :)
If you buy the game, you get future updates.
There are an astounding number of characters, meaningful branches and renders. This project will take years to complete but is off to a good start!
Will the be 'Preg' content?
I would also like to know if pregnancy is planned for future content.
There are no immediate plans to add pregnancy content. Due to the branching paths, it would not be easy to work that into the story at the current time. It may be considered for a future expansion.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for when the game is closer to completion. Either way keep up the good work :)
Not bad still very bare bones as far as content but love the number of girls to try and charm
What are the prerequisites for the stuff when you are helping Kimberly
If you're referring to the Saturday DIY scene with Kimberley. To stay behind when she gets changed, you need the 'bad boy' persona.
When playing in 'easy' mode, you can enable walkthrough hints that reveal information, such as any prerequisites.
The 'bad boy' persona with Kimberley is considered her solo path.
Abandoned?
Still in development. Itch has the latest full update. Patreon gets partial updates.

so glad. I like the game
Anal sex?
When the next update?
can you make an android version?
I don’t currently have the android experience or relevant hardware to build and test an android port of the game.
This is on the list for possible future development.
Android version now available.
I love the game, everything worked, however every once in awhile even though I changed the name it would still say Max.
Will there be an android version of the game
Android version now available.

Thanks for the info. I will take a look.
Good start. This was fun, if brief. I'll be watching for more.
