After Steam released the Early Access for my game reviews are starting to be written. Here you can find a couple, one in English and the other one in Russian. English review https://www.sinicalanimenetwork.com/single-post/2018/10/21/General-Practitioner Russian review https://steamcommunity.com/id/arrowloki/recommended/936960/ It's really overwhelming how well the public received the game around the planet, and this last statement is also overwhelming since I happen to have players from the US to JAPAN and everything in between. 18 months ago this would've been impossible to even think about, and it's thanks to people who keep supporting this project, which is still a long way to go but it's definitely getting its final shaping as weeks pass. Please also check my website www.brunimultimedia.com for new features added like full Italian translation, partial Japanese translation (work in progress) and new download options.

Released in 0.0.10b next Tuesday will be the "Gym Random Encounters". The gym mechanic itself will be modified. How will they work? Each time you go to the gym in game you earn 1 to 5 fitness points. Fitness is a new stat in the game and will be quite useful for your success in late-game difficult examinations, and also to meet certain objectives. Also, when going to the gym there will be a 35% chance to meet one out of five new characters who attend the gym. You can either increase or decrease that chance by buying certain items in the item shop. Depending on the character they will be interested in something in particular, while giving you the chance to earn something else. Let's take Daniel for example. Whenever you find him at the gym he will talk to you about charme and fashion. He will pose you a "challenge" randomly chosen from 5 different difficulty levels. It's up to you to learn by trial and error if you're ready to challenge him. If your charme is high enough you will be rewarded with "fame" for your clinic. The number of points earned will vary depending on the difficulty of the challenge itself. If it is not your own charme will decrease by 5 points. It's always up to you to accept or decline the "challenge". The characters you can meet are the following ones. Others may be added to the game in future updates: Koola is interested in Fitness -> increases Money Stephen is interested in Sexperience -> increases Charme Daniel is interested in Charme -> increases Fame Penny is interested in Knowledge -> increases Integrity Elsa is interested in Fame -> increases Knowledge If you bet the fifth and most difficult challenge you will unlock a special event with each character. This though will be included in a future update. I hope you'll have much fun with this new addition to the game! Be safe and healthy!

You can also invite your sister/cousin at the Festival, along with her niece.

You can always skip to the update right before the festival start.

You will also experience a new hospital exam: Kamil's. This exam will test your skills in the game and its outcome will surely surprise you.

The latest public release of the game is available for free here: http://www.indiedb.com/games/general-practitioner/downloads/general-practitioner-005-clinical-methods INTRODUCING COMFORT LEVEL (CL) Every examination has been updated to include the "Comfort Level" (CL) of a patient. The CL substitutes the "Trust level" of the patient. The comfort level of a patient is calculated both by the patient's trust towards you and his/her mood, education and shyness. Every patient will have a different CL, it's up to you to raise it to a level where you can treat him/her in the best of ways. Every action will affect the CL, from asking questions to having the patient undress to examining him/her body parts. Each patient has a different mood. While a patient can be looking for professional doctors, another one could look for a more strict one. Some even prefer a playful medic, while some others are looking for more sexual stuff. It's up to you to determine your patient's character and behave accordingly. You can now reply to a patient in seven different ways: - Calm - Professional - Strict - Sensitive - Charming - Flirty - Playful Each patient will see his/her CL raise/lower based on your behaviour and his/her character. Each patient is now based on one of six archetipes (some will be added in future updates): - Normal - Doubtful - Agitated - Sad - Shy - Sensual - Tired Each archetipe works with the MC's methods in a rock/paper/scissors kind of combination. A sad patient could be stimulated by a playful answer, or even a calm one, while shy patients could get mad if they receive a flirty answer from their caregiver. The CL influences everything in the exam, from asking a patient to undress to examining him/her, up to giving a proper medical evaluation of the issue at hand. GENERAL: * Bug fixing * Added new Codex entries - Codex entries now have pictures depicting the object of the entry * Added 181 new images (as of 0.0.5a) * Improved the coding of the game, which should now be smoother on slower machines * Added a tutorial for the game - You can disable the tutorial when starting a new game. - The tutorial is always ON on Exam Mode * Added a quick menu in the lower right corner of the screen * Added a "Load" option in the contextual menu GAMEPLAY * You can now fast skip a new game directly to the new content introduced in the updates - Click "New game", perform the interview with Dr. Kirkman and then follow the instructions on screen * You can now interview and hire a new staff member from a pool of three - Perks and costs of the new staff member are outlined in the game * Vanilla mode is now completely implemented.

As promised version 0.0.2 is here! Before the day ends I will post a "road map" of the future contents and releases. For now I'd like you to enjoy this new version of my game and, more important, to tell me if you like it, where I need to improve it and if you find any bugs please report them to me! It's the only way I have to release a very good full game! Changelog for 0.0.2: * Revamp of user interface * Added calendar with days, months and holidays (events will be added in future updates) * Added scheduler to choose which activity to perform each morning/afternoon/evening * Added 4 new stats: charm, integrity, knowledge and clinic fame * Added 5 new activities like relax, hang out, study, explore city * Added Jack (unknown guy at bus stop) images * Revamped medical examinations: - Medical examinations will be a part of gameplay excluded from sexual activities - You can engage in sexual activities with patients if you meet and hang out with them out of the clinic. - Of course if a patient already knows you there could be many special events to unlock - There still will be nudity on medical exams but only to check the patient. * In the first three medical examination the player will receive a hint of wether you are performing good or bad on most of the choices * The graphics are now correctly set to 1280x720 without errors * Added Clara's examination * Added a "Codex" which will contain up-to-date patient and staff informations, medical info and hints on the various illnesses you may encounter in the game * Every daily action has its graphic scene loaded * Added Ray's character and workplace * Added background in the options menu and at the start download: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3FP7ZM52OC9c2xTV1V1WnVrdW8 Alternative download link directly from my Patreon page: www.patreon.com/generalpractitioner

While waiting for the release of the next version of General Practitioner I made this video that shows the new features avalaible. Forgive my english, I'm Italian and I'm not used to speak in English, I hope I'm comprehensible. And sorry for the bad quality, this is the first video ever for me, I'll improve in the future I promise https://youtu.be/toObMVIuQXE

In 0.0.2 which will be released on monday 05/22 I will introduce the Codex. It will be some sort of Encyclopedia that will contain informations about patients you visit, staff you hire and even medical conditions and guidelines. This are written in collaboration of a true doctor, but should never replace the advice of your personal family physician. In time the Codex will contain many more informations and while the medical infos are avalaible from the start, the patient and staff ones will be avalaible only when you actually meet a person. Plus, some infos will be avalaible only if you correctly assess the illness of the patient, if any, and will remain hidden if you don't.

Before I release 0.0.2 I want to complete the rendering overhaul, add at leats a picture to every activity avalaible (relax, study, hang out, work, explore city) and add a new patient with a complete examination of them. That's likely to happen over the weekend so expect a new release on monday morning, This release will be a better example of what to expect from the full game once it's complete. The game will feature a full in-game year experience. Holidays and special events will be covered and there will be some drama too. Of course you won't have to visit two patients each day, that would be boresome, but expect some surprises every time you choose to go to work. I'm very excited about the whole development. In my mind this will be more than the usual indie visual novel and you'll be surprised by the simulation part too. Of course I won't get very far without your comments about the game and the direction it takes at every release, so try the game if you wish and tell me everything you think about it!

I'm already working to the next version. I have made some modifications. This is the uncomplete changelog aas of today: * Revamp of user interface * Added "History" of previous conversations * Added calendar with days, months and holidays (events will be added in future updates) * Added scheduler to choose which activity to perform each morning/afternoon/evening * Added 4 new stats: charm, integrity, knowledge and clinic fame * Added 5 new activities like relax, hang out, study, explore city * Added Jack (unknown guy at bus stop) images * Revamped medical examinations: - Medical examinations will be a part of gameplay excluded from sexual activities - You can engage in sexual activities with patients if you meet and hang out with them out of the clinic. - Of course if a patient already knows you there could be many special events to unlock - There still will be nudity on medical exams but only to check the patient. * In the first three medical examination the player will receive a hint of wether you are performing good or bad on most of the choices Some screens of version 0.0.2. Check out the game, I promise you won't be disappointed if you give it a chance. Every release of my game is FREE and always will be. Patreon is just something to try to finance new programs and templates, not the main goal. I'm doing this game for myself and for whoever wants to try it.

While I was developing 0.0.1a I wasn't sure how to manage the players' choice of events. Having them choose every day what to do via dialogue lines didn't seem to fit in properly. Adding hotspots in scenarios could have worked, but I think it will take very long time to develop properly and, more important, without mistakes on my part. So I found over the net this fantastic script from qirien (kudos, mate): https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=31571 and I'm implementing it in my game. Starting with 0.0.2 the players will have the ability to choose what to do every day. More and more options will be added in time, for now you'll have the options above avalaible. I'm also rewriting the code to have it being controlled by events instead of variable checks. While this is fairly an invisible feat for the players it will allow me to manage the code and writing the game much better. I also made a new link to download the game without the misspelling in the title. Thanks again ittaku.

Wow, THAT is big. Thank you for telling me. As you might have guessed I'm not english, I hope I won't do many mistakes, however THIS is a huge one.

VERSION 0.0.1a is out! https://ufile.io/h0vbb Please share your thoughts. It's a pre-alpha build which includes the intro, Erika and Rita characters, one full examination. Point system is already there but still not useful, so it is the money system. In the next version I will add graphics (the guy at the bus stop), another examination (Clara) and improvements to the user interface (i want to make players click on a hotspot instead than choosing a text option)

The inventory management will allow you to buy items, properties (cars, more clinics, apartments). When implemented a flag will be placed for every item you will buy or get. In every choice or conversation you will be given the chance to use something from your inventory and the game will behave accordingly. Imagine to greet your business partner and shake his hand while holding a dildo. It will be possible

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like the graphic. With time I can improve it even more! When I release the first alpha give it a try, it could be the first one of this genre you may like

Hello guys. I wanted to introduce you to my work, still in development: General Practitioner. As the name suggests this is a game where you will be impersonating a medical doctor who works and manages a small clinic in a small town. The style is that of a visual novel, but it has elements of an RPG (choices WILL matter as you progress into the story. Plus it will feature an inventory management), of a simulation and of management. You will meet many characters, not just the patients (which are all scripted and each one will be dateable) but also staff members, occasional acquaintances and more. You will earn money for each visit and with that you'll have to pay your staff and medical instruments. More instruments will unlock more patients (Dermatology, Pediatrics, Gynecology, etc. etc.). The medical part is a simulation. I'm working with a real doctor, friend of mine, who tells me what happens in medical clinics (Italian ones, since I'm Italian) and all the medical informations are real. My inspiration are the old medical simulations like the "Emergency Room series" from Legacy Games. Of course the game will feature sex and nudity. But you won't be able to just fuck everything that moves, because you could scare patients away and the clinic could close due to debts. Being a doctor, though, is a good way to make people undress, but that depends on the purpose of the exam, the patient's trust in you and even their mood. The game is still in development, I began working on it some weeks ago (I'm all by myself) and right now the introduction and the first medical examination is complete. I expect to release a pre-pre-pre-pre-pre alpha version in a few days. Since I work and have a family I can't put all my spare time on the project, but progress is smooth, since I'm a programmer and writing code is on my genetics If you wish to know more about the project (and why not, support it) take a look here: www.patreon.com/generalpractitioner These are some screenshots of what's avalaible for now, you can find others on the patreon page. Let me know what you think and thanks for just reading this. VERSION 0.0.2 is out! https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3FP7ZM52OC9c2xTV1V1WnVrdW8 Please share your thoughts.
