I enjoyed the new update. Saw a few errors but they didn't ruin it and no doubt others will be able to spellcheck for you. As to the tags that have been mentioned, I am down for simple romance adding to the story and characters so whatever you give I will no doubt be fine with.
I kinda "infer" that it will use the adult romance to add to the characters and story but not go full on porn with it, I feel like it may be your simple romance that comes with a lot of detective stories, which I am down with... At least as long as it isn't dark or too depraved lol
I'm not entirely sure what a "simple romance" entails, but what I can say for certain is that these girls are genuine and heartwarming (well, for the most part).
As for the darker aspects, I can’t make any promises. I’ve been trying to use some humorous scenes to keep the overall tone from getting too heavy, but as the story progresses... forget I said anything, XD.
Well by simple I just mean your basic stuff. I guess kind of vanilla if you will. I was just saying I am fine with that type of relationship. Not that I thought the VN would have one like it necessarily.
And the game is kind of dark, bad things are no doubt gonna happen and should be expected. I guess when I was saying that, I was referring to the romances themselves. There are certain AVN's that go a bit dark and depraved with the Love interests and I kind of avoid them is all.
I guess rather than not saying the tags i will just bluntly say I hope NTR and R*** will not be a thing with the LI's... That is what I meant. lol
Just not my cup of tea
Ohhh make sense
Our views align remarkably well!
Hey dev keep up the good work any girl on girl action and group sex(ffm/fffm) in the upcoming chapters ?
I don’t particularly lean toward creating any specific type of adult scenes. Everything is prioritized to serve the story’s progression, so it’s hard for me to give you a definite answer regarding tags—sorry about that.
However, you can infer what kind of romantic scenes might appear in the future based on the existing story.
Is it updated
Yes, pal
XD
do choices even matter? there is no difference at all when i pick them and no indication if my choice raised points or not which is boring , how come no one wants to mention skip button ignores unread content? makes it hard to use when you need it
I yet to know if the choices matter, but understand it just started, you're not going to know if they really matter. Also no one mentions the skip button because there is settings option to it, you're allowing it to skip unread content. If you want to skip, without missing anything, just tap skip periodically. You skip some dialogue, but nothing major.
Bro, it’s like you’re reading my mind. I do have plans for some stats to have an impact in the future, but honestly, I’m not sure if players will even notice, haha. For me, developing the story takes priority over everything else.
I deeply regret that the game made you feel uncomfortable. After all, this isn’t a raising sim or a sandbox-style game, but rather a visual novel that leans more towards a single narrative direction. Considering my limited capacity as a solo developer juggling several part-time jobs, I’m unable to handle the workload of creating multiple branching routes. This inevitably leads to longer development times, which is unfortunate if the game has left you feeling bored.
As for the skip issue you mentioned, so far, your feedback is the only one I’ve received on this. Perhaps, as another comment suggested, you may have set an incorrect option in your settings.
So far i have enjoyed the game and the story can't wait for more updates
The time has come. Lmao
Uugh, this is so good. A good game to play while waiting for Eternum. Definitely S-Tier with Eternum. Why can't all the masterpieces just be finished, man? Why can't I just binge it. 😔😔 Overall 10/10!!! Here's an extra, 100/10!!!
Thx for ur rating bro XDD APPRECIATE!
The story is very interesting, but the female characters' breasts are a bit too large, which looks a bit strange. I hope the characters can be optimized in version 0.4
Sorry are those gyat still too big in 0.3?
XDDD
哈哈哈刚刚才玩完0.3,感觉大小是没问题的 ,不过除了瑟莉媞之外的几位女角色胸型都是偏火箭型,稍微调圆润一点看起来应该就没那么奇怪了 。玩完才反应过来作者这里能用中文回复hhh。0.3结尾的地铁部分很有意思!有点像在玩寂静岭PT!在渲染上也感觉比之前有进步!吸引人的故事、帅得一批的男主夏洛克、有趣的女孩们(特别喜欢瑟莉媞~)给我的感觉都非常非常棒!有个ui的小建议,或许能在设置中加入文本框透明度的选项。祝你在现实生活中的各方面都能顺利(看到有兼职,辛苦了),非常期待下次更新!!
謝謝你的反饋,也許我在未來重製UI的時候會加入這個選項,但目前UI重製的優先度不高
不過很高興你玩得開心!
is there going to be lesbian/bisexual/girl on girl stuff including in threesomes and if so will that be avoidable?
Ah, I think I’ve seen similar comments elsewhere. In any case, my development direction is story-driven, and adult scenes are just a seasoning within the narrative (this doesn’t mean I’m opposed to creating adult content). However, I can’t promise you what types of adult scenes Profiler will have in the future.
That said, I recommend trying to infer what kind of romantic moments might appear based on the existing storyline. I place a lot of emphasis on logical consistency.
This game has exceeded my expectations!
Thx mate, hope 0.3 exceed as well XD
Update the damn game brow or else i will shoot your house using minigun
Please dont make jokes like that 😐
Don't worry, I've already gone broke to the point of living in a park. What he's doing basically counts as vandalizing public property.
Is there no way to hide the box that the text is in? It kind of takes up a lot of the screen on android. Would be nice is there was wn option to change the transparency or hide it all together.
I'm sorry to hear you feel this way, but my current development focus is primarily on the mobile version.
There are four main reasons for this:
1. Issues with the mini-game in version 0.2 – It would encounter problems.
2. Text effects and interface designs – Many of the intricate effects and details I’ve created are difficult to fully display on mobile.
3. Music and sound effects – Especially sound effects with stereo differences, which I don’t recommend experiencing on a single-speaker mobile device.
4. Animation and visual details – The small screen on mobile devices doesn’t do justice to the animations and intricate visuals.
Perhaps in the future, when I have more resources, I’ll consider refining the mobile version. Thank you for your feedback.
Download the file which its name with apk.
What is update 0.2.1?
here u go
Profiler 0.2.1 is now available - Profiler by Divebar studio (itch.io)
Oh it's minor update thanks for this, but my all save is not working, only the end save is working.
Probably because of rephrase the text, cuz the problem.
I'll keep an eye on that, thx.

What is the name of the song that is played when you meet Wintress? I can not find it. :D
Sorry, pal, but you might need to head over to my Discord channel or Patreon to access that content. The lyrics and the stories behind them are exclusive perks for my supporters.
Okay. Thank you! :)
I know that song it's
https://www.patreon.com/DiveBar :D
M8, I think he is referring Wen's theme song, I haven't uploaded to Patreon, but it is available in the Discord channel already:D
Shut the fuck up and update the goddamn game>:(

check it out!
毫不客气地说,这是一部非常精彩的作品,无论配乐或是剧情都很吸引我,希望下一个版本能有更多有趣的内容,顺便一问,一个版本的制作周期大致会处于一个多久的范围
我到0.3版本前都會是三個月為一個週期,預估會在12月底更新,後續可能要看贊助收入有沒有辦法足夠支撐基礎的生活開銷,如果沒辦法的話就得找一份正職工作,遊戲更新的週期可能會拉長至半年一更
I just finished playing this and it's really amazing,The graphics is good but it's buggy idk why. And the story is interesting I really like it.
Also the girls is so hot and beautiful they have large GYATTT, I can't focus while playing it lol.
I Can't wait for new update.
Really nigga "GYATT" your too old for that shit only kids say that... Wait hold on how old are you?
Bro
I'm 19?
I haven't received any feedback about bugs so far. Could you let me know what issues you encountered?
Kid named Sherlock becomes a detective, peak.
Welp
My childhood hero deserves this.
I can't, more like wouldn't make a huge review like @Ralkey, but I overall agree w/ his review.
This Visual Novel has tons of potential, sound effects are wonderful, and the story is interesting, pulling you in... I can see you trying animations/scenes that aren't common. 3D animation, as the camera flying around the room, while also having a POV of a drone.
I really look forward to what you make in the future, but especially this VN. You've done well for the intro/first chapter.
Appreciate you making this VN, and wish you the best.
I'll definitely going try something new, stay tuned!
Val's side boobs caught me off guard
Can't blame u.
looks interesting
Indeed :P
Just saw random discord conversation praising this so gonna give it a try. Man seeing people praise bgm,sound,girls, backgrounds, writing i really gotta sleep 1am but it seems i might need to play longer ahah. Can't wait to play and read this. Hope more people can find your work and support you!
It's a strange feeling to see people talking about Profiler in places I didn't know about.XD
Have fun!
I just found this game a accidently because of "TheRog" and this game is damn well good
A very fortunate connection.
Hi dev, I would like to ask what are the future tags and if you are planning to include ntr(I hope not) but either way, I'm not going to criticize it. I just would like to know before I play
def not goin NTR i can promise
TL;DR
This game is an absolute must-try, especially with sound and music on.
The story is being told in an understandable way for the reader, and it keeps the mystery.
The graphics look great.
And the story is really interesting, with it being creepy and mysterious at times.
The girls are also quite cute.
Lengthy review
This is all my opinion from the game.
From first opening the game to the menu, I was already delighted with what I experienced.
Normally I turn down the music, but the choice of music for the menu in this game fit perfectly with the atmosphere the game is trying to create. The little scribble sound when navigating the menu is also a delight to my ears, though it is a bit too loud.
Graphics
The background is absolutely stunning, with its warm yet natural feeling. The choice to make the train scene in the beginning a looping video is a great decision.
Alongside the great sound design, it really pulls me into the experience.
0.1
Sadly this quality doesn't always persist through the rest of 0.1, at other points the lack of proper shading becomes really obvious, making the images look flat.
Or the background will not make use of a blur.
Sometimes you can find rough edges caused by a lack of Anti-Aliasing, or the FOV is too high, or the scene composition isn't done as well.
These tiny things can make or break an image.
Though these are all minor things, it's by far not bad enough for me to discredit the game.
0.2
0.2 has a serious increase in quality compared to 0.1.
Most of the issues I had with 0.1's graphics have been fixed, such as the lack of Anti-Aliasing.
However, the bloom in the beginning is too high in my opinion.
UI
With the decision to only show parts of the full text at a time, it really makes the reading of the story approachable for people who can't focus on large bodies of text, also adds to the mysterious feeling.
And the minimalistic yet drawn feeling I get from the UI is also great.
Music / Sound
The music is great, it's not some NCS bull crap, but proper music to fit the atmosphere.
The SFX, such as the train, is also done quite well, making for a more realistic experience.
One thing I have noticed is that the music doesn't repeat smoothly.
Story
The Story is REALLY interesting.
I have nothing else to say except that it's a great read, it's both creepy and mysterious at times.
Girls
The girls are also really cute, greatly designed.
But the extreme breast size and extreme hair colors can be quite weird at times. Such as Skye's full on yellow hair and breast size at certain angles. (Though this is all my opinion on the character design)
That's all I can really say about it 😅
Conclusion
This is a great game with a really cool story and cute girls.
It is definitely a must-try.
Thank you for savoring my work; your review is like a perfectly cooked dish.
I really appreciate it.
Thx for ur time.
(P.S I luv long reviews XD)

i want to make a game, and dont know how to get started, im trying to get characters and scenes using ren'py but cant figure it out. I also don't know how to add script. please let me know about any character generators you might have or any ways that i can add script to the game.
