High scores can be saved, and the help can be found on the ISER Games website with a knowledge base and user forum. Teacher's Tools and tutorials are also available.

Haha, I can already tell this thread is going to fill with spam.
The topic is unusual... not something you generally see being developed using a game engine. That being said, the screens look clean, and very easy to navigate. I assume that you are building this for a class, that you already know wants it, because it would be kind of wierd if this was a hobby game...
To be honest, it dosent float my boat, but more power to ya'. Keep it up.

Yes, this is an unusual theme for a game, which is one reason why we developed it. It's not intended to "float the boat" of adults, as it's aimed at teens, and parents of teens who might find this a fun way to approach the sometimes uncomfortable topic of sex with their kids. We've gotten a lot of feedback (long before the release) from parents, educators, and people who work with teens (troubled or otherwise) who are very interested in this. Given the fact that this is serious game dev effort that took months of hard work (ok, a few more than planned ), I would ask people to please only post genuine comments and feedback rather than needless posts making fun of the subject matter (as it states in the forum guidelines for the Showcase II topic). And thanks Rad_Daddy for your kind words, and thanks in advance to everyone else that leaves constructive feedback :-) (btw, we plan to release a limited shareware version in the near future. I will post here when we do).

well, I can only think of a million school districts which may be potential buyers *or* there's probably some top level of the educational branch of things in this country who may be contacted as well.... Someone had to do it I believe, If I would have attempted this kind of project, it would have gone WAY off course a long time ago and the potential audience would have been way over 18 years of age Jason

We're going to be contacting as many educational institutions as we possible can in the very near future... and as far as an audience over 18, we're saving that for our next project *grin* But seriously, this was a really good project for our team to "learn the ropes" with, since there was a lot involved in not only making the game itself, but establishing an official business, coordinating a remote team, and doing marketing and legal research. If we couldn't build a "small" game, we certainly couldn't expect to build a big one, which is our next goal :-)

I had to play around a little bit. Anyway, more power to you, I hope some schools pick this up, would have made it a lot easier on my 5th grade teachers during those sex ed weeks. I'm sure I wasn't making life easier for them.
