Hello. You have to download the APK file (Android), install it with an special permit (since you are dowloading it outside the play store) and it should be good to play.
Don't know if this has been brought to attention yet, but with the latest public release, whenever I try saving anywhere in Chapter 2, the game errors out.
Hello. No, we haven't had been noticed about an error like that. I have tested the game on computer and phone and the saving seems to work. Please let me know if that error remains with the new public update.
Love the game! It's very well thought out, the storyline keeps you engaged and the sexy CGs are great! Unfortunately I can't support Patreon right now but I would like to contribute somehow, if there's a donation option. The only drawback I found is that there are a lot of grammatical errors, too many to report one by one, and a few lines with the wrong character. Also, I wish there were more animations. But great job so far, can't wait for Chapter 2!
Hello! Thanks for playing the game! I'm glad you love it! ^_^
I'm always trying to find all the errors and and fix them whenever I can.
The other site where you can support is Gumroad (https://gumroad.com/strongerbonds). You can buy there the latest version, which is right now four updates ahead of the public release. Thanks for considering supporting the project! ^_^
Yes. Every month we create a new version with more content. Since this is basically an indie visual novel all the monthly profits (from Patreon and Gumroad) are used to get new art and paying for other stuff.
We have fixed that bug and many others. Now the current version is 2.03.2, which is already uploaded in the links sent to patrons and on Gumroad!
We apologize and we hope you enjoy the new update! Also we added a new special mini scene within the new adult scene to make up for all these inconveniences.
Hey there, I'm still getting an error with ver. 2.03.1 It always crashes after I finish the four choices in chapter 2, I can't rollback or ignore it either as it just crashes and closes right after. Any chance you could help? I got the copy from gumroad.
sorry I couldn't get the image to upload, this is the text from the error, if that helps?
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Eu não falo português mas espero que você entenda:A nova atualização já foi publicada.Agradeço por ter jogado o jogo e espero que goste da nova versão.
when i first started Stronger bonds i was so invested that i could not stop reading until i finished and i eagerly await for the next update and for the eventual encouter of the brothers and sam, however one criticism that i feel like i have to point out is the various spelling mistakes and dialogue coming from the wrong characters, i hope is fixed soon
Hello! Thank you so much for you comment! I'm glad you are enjoying the story!
And I will appreciate a lot you help with the errors you have encounter in your experience with the game. You can use this form to suggest a correction or at least help me find the lines with mistakes. Link: https://forms.gle/7qg9hEqLmpzZP7Jn7
Your twitter says v2.0 is available on gumroad but the latest version I can find is v.1.16. Also, I have a question: If I become a patreon now can I still receive the latest update or will I have to wait for the next update on June?
My apologies. Version 1.16 is in reality version 2.0. We'll change that as soon as possible. We jumped from version 1.15 to version 2.0 as we began with Chapter 2 last month.
If you join patreon now, you'd get the next version on May 31st but you wouldn't get the latest verdion. You have to be a patron before we post an update there to get that update. We post updates on the last day of the month. We do that as we don't want to charge upfront in case we don't have ready an update for that month.
This novel has such a fatastic plot, with good sex scene too. Can't wait to see where the families would go to! By the way i might have seen your comic, a big fan too.
Hello! Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you like the story so far! And I guess you are referring to MisterStallion's comics. I'll let him know you are a big fan.
hopefully after he make amends with his sons and being the ONLY straight man in the city, he did take the offer about going to a gay club so my guess is that's where it starts off.
The game itself is not a dating sim, but in some points of the story I plan to let the players take choices for some characters in romantic contexts, resulting in forming a "love bond" or breaking one.
I want to include one. I just have started researching how to do one so it might take a while to be included. But there will be a gallery in the future.
Version 1.06 will be out for the public at the end of September. Version 1.07 at the end of October. And the newest version, 1.08, at the end of November.

Ok thank you, I will just become patreon near the end of the month to get the next version! Thanks for explaining!
nsfw?
Yes, it is a NSFW visual novel. You have to be +18 years old to play it.
Will Harry have more scenes?
Yes! In the future he will have a story line (kinda like a simultaneous route) just for his... adventures.
This novel has such a fatastic plot, with good sex scene too. Can't wait to see where the families would go to! By the way i might have seen your comic, a big fan too.
Hello! Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you like the story so far! And I guess you are referring to MisterStallion's comics. I'll let him know you are a big fan.
There appears to be an issue with Gumroads image pack 11. It's only showing the cover image u have for it. Nothing else.
Hello! Thanks for the info. We're going to see what's the problem.
Hello again! We upload the file again to see if that fixed the issue. Please check it whenever you can.
I've tried everything. how to get Ralph and Steve to retire in the locker room? :D
Hello! I have uploaded a tutorial on how to get it. You can find it on the download section.
OwO!!!!

IDK?? I was going to ask if this VN was finished... But it's look like it's not yet..
Version 1.09 is free for the public since today.
Is there any fetish kinks here I mean I would be if furry game not contain fetishes but I just want to know what fetishes are here?
I'll try to work on a list of the fetishes this game has or is going to have.
I mean like watersports(piss) fetish and any others will gonna be here
This game really in to me >w<
i really enjoy it so much
can't wait for next update
I'm glad you like it!
who is your fav character
All of them are my characters, except for Kody. And I love them all!
Who can romance Robert the Rottweiler? How can we find him?
Robert's boyfriend is Ryan, the purple bull.
So, he can't be romanced, then?
Right now no. You'll have to wait until that story line develops more.
when is the next update coming out? really enjoying this VN
I KNEW the art style was so familiar! MISTERSTALLION!!
Yes! He is the artist. He is in the credits.
I like the story, but is there a way to get updates without having to go through the whole story every update. the save files never work
Hello! There is a scene selection that should help with that issue. I'm still trying to figure out what is causing that problem.
Is samson gonna have a gay sex scene?
hopefully after he make amends with his sons and being the ONLY straight man in the city, he did take the offer about going to a gay club so my guess is that's where it starts off.
Just wait to see what happens in the second chapter, which begins after version 1.15
when is the next update coming out? btw loving this vn
I’m loving this game! Can’t wait till the next update!
What has been updated?
Check here please: https://strongerbonds.itch.io/stronger-bonds/devlog/182867/version-106-now-avail...
Will the new characters introduced in this new update be romanceable?
What do you mean by romanceable?
I mean can we date them, get them to become our boyfriends?
The game itself is not a dating sim, but in some points of the story I plan to let the players take choices for some characters in romantic contexts, resulting in forming a "love bond" or breaking one.
Is Tommy a nudist?
Samson and Tommy like to wear the fewer clothes they can. But they are not public nudists.
okay by the way is there gonna be a gallery?
I want to include one. I just have started researching how to do one so it might take a while to be included. But there will be a gallery in the future.
Ok by the way does samson
Work out in the nude?
Maybe but it is most likely he would workout at least with a jockstrap on.
when will the Version 1.06/1.07 be out?
Hello!
Version 1.06 will be out for the public at the end of September. Version 1.07 at the end of October. And the newest version, 1.08, at the end of November.
Thank you! will be waiting on that update. really like the game
Is there a option to have Samson pantsless?
Have a moment in the story there you see it.
Hello! At some moments he is.
what about going commando to?
Maybe one day but a lot of things have to happen first.
Oh ok
There is no download button wtf
Sorry. We are having some issues with the download links. Once we solve them we will enable the download botton again.
Hello! The download button should be visible again.
It is ^^ thanks a lot!

Shouldn't jake be saying this? The same thing happens also whe magnus is asking him if he has more sons
Hello!
Thanks for letting me know about these errors. I'll fix them in the next public update.
