Thats all I wanted to say, Jed is very husbando plus he's in a band. The fan girl in me had a feild day in his route.

This game is the most realistic than the other gay themed games I've played before, I'm sooo emotionally attached to the characters (the main protagonist and his friends). And maybe because I'm so related to Mark, we're both in college, and also gae, but unlike Mark I haven't come out of the closet. It's hard to live here in asia aaaa too many homophobics..

Hello people where are you?? Too late for me to discover this great game, the community is already dead :(

I'd really like to know what's on IAN's mind while being pursued by Mark or when Mark is pursuing others. Or a game where it's you gotta stop mark from pursuing other guys. Or a game where the setting way way before the current Coming out on Top story where IAN's starting to have feelings to Mark, since Zoe said IAN is attracted to Mark for a very long time. Damn seeing him hiding his feelings or being jelous is soooo cute damnit. Anyway what are your thoughts? Sorry for bad english thoo

- Start Ian's route and play until you're at the bar with him; pick "I don't want your 'help' anymore".
- Amos appears after you talk to a bunch of people.
- Accept the ride.

There are four different routes you can go, which will unlock the different CG's. The paths are called erotic, romantic, mean and weird. To get all the CG's and endings you need to stay at one route at a time. Every time you can give four answers you need to choose the one fitting your current path, for the other junctures use polite answers or you will no longer see Amos.

Erotic Path
#1 Maybe romantic... #2 This place is nice... #3 LOL... #4 Think we could... #5 Well, actually... #6 Yes, Edy. Help me! (This will colour the verses, pick the orange ones aka. DATT ASS) #7 Clap politely. #8 Niiice... #9 Maybe... #10 I thought it was alright. #11 I've got big plans... #12 We're about to... #13 It actually sounds... #14 Point out...

Weird Path
#1 Actually, I've got this... #2 Sounds kind of cheesy... #3 I like the way... #4 Whatever... #5 Would you... #6 Yes, Edgy. Help me! (This will colour the verses, pick the blue ones aka. I Don't Mean to be Weird, But) #7 Whistle and cheer. #8 Rad... #9 Oh wow... #10 I was hoping for... #11 I don't know... #12 Maybe you could... #13 I need to tell you... #14 Talk mild trash. 

Romantic Path
#1 I'd love to. #2 This place is beautiful... #3 That's a good point. #4 *Bite your lip...* #5 I never expected... #6 Yes, Edgy. Help me! (This will colour the verses, pick the red ones aka. Evening Anthem) #7 Follow Amos' lead... #8 How romantic... #9 Take the... #10 What a great movie... #11 This might... #12 *Say nothing* #13 I'm not here to judge... #14 *Say nothing*

Mean Path
#1 Ok, this... #2 No fried chicken... #3 Cry me a river... #4 Roses are red... #5 Hey, listen... #6 Yes, Edgy. Help me! (This will colour the verses, pick the yellow ones aka. Poetry is Stoopid) #7 Hiss and boo. #8 How... quaint. #9 I'm fine... #10 Eh, not really my cup of tea. #11 I'm still thinking... #12 Just... #13 I knew... #14 Talk serious trash. 

Any chance that there will be a future new version of Coming Out on Top?  New main characters/ story... maybe at the same college... 

I loved the story and the art of it all and I for one would like MORE Coming Out on Top!

Anyone know how to get the 1st GC for Jed? I only got the bukkake one which is the second, but not the first and I have no idea how to get it. 

I am having so much trouble with this last CG! It is the 4th CG in the Main Gallery, right underneath the 1st one. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Since the walkthrough that used to be used by fans is not accessible anymore, I'm making some new ones. Starting with Ian. It does not get you ALL the CG's, so it is apparently not complete, but it does get you to the good ending with him. Feel free to comment or add things!

i have tried accessing the walkthrough multiple times but i cannot physically access their blog. it pops up on the sidebar every time and will not change when i click "read more"

i just want to get all the CGs,,,

I can get the second CG its the only one I have left any help guys

I am missing the last CG on Jed's route (bottom, left coner in the gallery) 

Can anyone help me? 

If I may, anyone is eager to find out all CGs in Amos route. 

Amos walkthrough notice

1. Follow Ian’s route first till you go to the bar.

2. Accept all his invitations, otherwise you will no longer see him. Namely, I presume weekend plan will not matter in Amos route if you say yes to date him nearly every weekend. 

3. There are 4 ending with Amos. We can literally find out what options imply. So it would not be a thing. (Though several options which apparently indicate 4 attitudes would not effect, better safe than sorry.)Being friendly leads to a good ending. Being erotic leads to a slightly divergent erotic and funny ending. Being weird leads to a rather weird ending. Being mean leads to ……a sad ending. 

(Ian's route reference: http://hoboshorts.tumblr.com/post/105080014013/coming-out-on-top-walkthrough-relatively  You can find all walkthrough from the website aside from new characters such as Amos, Jake and Tommy)

Any

1 – Think we could get or 2 – roses are red or 3 – whatever or 4 – bite your lip(I guess here implies 4 routes.Though I can’t figure out which is erotic. I presume 1 or 4 could still lead to his good ending.)
