Love or Lust Beach Stories News

Hi everyone! Here's what we've been working on lately. New Game+ A new mode for players who have finished the game at least once. Start a fresh playthrough with all content unlocked and take it at your own pace. You'll worry less about resources and have more freedom to try different choices and discover story paths you missed the first time. Saves now also show the day number, so it's easier to find the one you need.

Patch 1.0.10 For players on AMD graphics cards:

• Fixed the green screen issue.

  [/*]

• Fixed the black screen issue. This fix should help most players, but if you still see a black screen, please let us know.

  [/*]

Thanks for playing and for sending us your reports!

[/img]Hi everyone! A new patch is out, and you'll notice a change right away. Gallery, skins, and the shop are now on your phone. 

We moved the gallery, the skin selector (Cast), and the shop out of the laptop and into your in-game phone. The gallery was hard to find before, so this should make it much easier to get to. Tutorials and in-game text are updated to match. Also in this patch

• Voice-over bug fixes

  [/*]

• Reworked the ESC behavior and fixed several ESC-related bugs in menus

  [/*]

• Fixed recipe icons at the bar

  [/*]

This is our seventh update since launch. The first few patches, right after release, focused on saves, loading, UI, and localization. More patches with fixes and new features are coming this week. Thanks to everyone reporting bugs and sharing feedback, it genuinely shapes what we fix next. See you at the bar!

[/img]Hi everyone!

A small patch is out. We fixed typos and other text errors, along with logic issues in some story branches.

If you spot anything else, let us know in the Steam discussions or on Discord.

If Love or Lust: Beach Stories shows a black or green screen when it starts, try the steps below. Before you start: update your graphics driver

Make sure you have the latest driver for your graphics card. Outdated drivers commonly cause this issue. If you have an AMD card, this problem is most likely related to it, since AMD cards sometimes behave this way with the game. Start with Method 1.

Method 1: launch the game with DirectX 11

This forces the game to run in DirectX 11 mode, which is often more stable. It works with any graphics card. Step 1. Open the game's properties in Steam

1. Open Steam and go to your Library.

   [/*]

2. Find Love or Lust: Beach Stories in the game list.

   [/*]

3. Right-click the game and select Properties.

   [/*]

Step 2. Set the launch option

1. On the General tab, scroll down to the Launch Options field.

   [/*]

2. Type the following into the field:

   [/*]

Close the Properties window. Steam saves the setting automatically.

Step 3. Launch the game. Start the game as usual. It will now run in DirectX 11. To undo this change, open the Launch Options field again and delete the text.

Method 2: Turn off MFAA (NVIDIA cards)

If you have an NVIDIA card, you can also try turning off Multi-Frame Sampled AA. Step 1. Open NVIDIA Control Panel Right-click an empty area of your desktop. On Windows 11, click Show more options first, then select NVIDIA Control Panel. Step 2. Go to Manage 3D settings In the left-hand menu, expand 3D Settings and click Manage 3D settings. Step 3. Open the Global Settings tab Make sure the Global Settings tab is selected. Step 4. Turn off MFAA

1. In the Features list, scroll down and find Multi-Frame Sampled AA (MFAA).

   [/*]

2. Click its value in the Setting column to open the drop-down menu.

   [/*]

3. Select Off.

   [/*]

Step 5. Apply the changes Click Apply at the bottom right of the window, close NVIDIA Control Panel and launch the game. Still not working?

If the screen is still black or green after both methods, send us your logs and crash reports on Discord and we will help you figure it out.

[Updated] We've added more fixes and improvements to the build; see the list below.

[/img]Hi everyone! We've released a small hotfix.

Some players found that after loading a save, objects in the trailer stopped responding to clicks, and the story couldn't move forward. This is now fixed. Your existing saves will work, so there's no need to start over.

If you still run into the problem, let us know in the Steam discussions or on Discord and attach your save file. It helps us track things down faster.

Also added in this update

• Increased the number of save slots

  [/*]

• Added the ability to rewatch the tutorial from the Gallery

  [/*]

• Improved control buttons in mini-games

  [/*]

• Fixed UI issues in the game

  [/*]

• Fixed clothing clipping for Chloe, Kiko, and Michelle

Hi everyone! Today we'd like to give you a quick update on several important features we're currently working on for Love or Lust: Beach Stories: the save system, the protagonist's home hub, and our first story DLC.

Let's start with the save system. The game will feature both automatic and manual saves. An autosave is created at the beginning of each in-game day and always occupies the first save slot. Manual saves can be created through the in-game menu. Each save slot can be named, renamed, or deleted, and you'll also see a preview image of your current scene.
