VN Ren'Py Where the Heart Is [S1 v6.1.2024 BETA] [CheekyGimp]

[BellaSouth]

What I don't get is the people against the idea of a harem especially if its a separate route. You could always you know not go down that path. At least if it was implemented it gives people a choice. As of right now if you were sexing all the women and come towards the end and have to pick one how would you all of the others react especially Katie/Jenna knowing each other feels like a war would start especially from Katie.

Anything can be entered optionally. Sex with aliens, monster girls, resuscitate the mother, etc. But what makes a quality product is its consistency. What has been done cannot be sacrificed just to satisfy the desires of a few, who are not interested in anything except satisfying their kinks.

That's a bit overdramatic isn't it?

I don't think it's up to you, me or anybody else to decide what is consistent or not in Cheeky's game, that is in the end up to him.

Nevertheless, It's just completely weird to argue that a game would lose its consistency over adding an optional path, you don't have too choose.
You have any idea how many games have silly quests, weird easter eggs, stuff that is completely out there? You have any idea how many VNs offer routes just for fun? Key, being one of the most influential VN developers, with several classics of the genre up their sleeves has completely bonkers routes in near every game.

I really wonder what you base this stuff on, it can't be due to your experience in gaming or more specifically playing visual novels, BECAUSE that's just not what you experience playing games of any genre, certainly not visual novels.

And lastly, whenever the topic of an harem ending comes up, some people say they would like it, some say they wouldn't.
How do YOU know how many people actually want it? Or are against it like you are? Was there a poll I missed? Did somebody pass on a questionnaire I never got to see?

You have a right to your opinion, just like I do, but methinks you presume a bit too much on all fronts.

Lol, read your answer...

I don't think it's up to you, me or anybody else to decide what is consistent or not in Cheeky's game, that is in the end up to him.

Well, if you can't judge the consistency of a product, is up to you, I can read a book, see a movie and can realise if is consistent or not.

Nevertheless, It's just completely weird to argue that a game would lose its consistency over adding an optional path, you don't have too choose.

Each product must be analysed separately, it is not possible to say "oh! this one has an optional path so all other games should have it". It'd be very silly and boring.
And bringing Key as example here shows you can't separate oranges from apples.

You show great ability to determine my experience (based on nothing) but total lack of analysis of the information that this thread provides, so it leads me to think that your interest is either just to refute me or you are desperate for a Harem path.

but methinks you presume a bit too much on all fronts.

And you don't? This is my opinion, take it or leave it, but don't think you are better than me.

You do know that she isnt MCs sister right? Its not an incest game.

Depends on how you play the game my friend it is why I put 'Mom' in quotes.

To alot of people atleast a lot better than reading "your mother died" at the begining of the game... that shit is depressing.

The old "Momica" joke aside, at least your use of "mom" doesn't explicitly look like calling Monica the MC's mother.

Nah, that "a lot of people" just want to play an incest game, which is fair enough. However, this isn't one without a mod that makes extensive changes to make it so. Anyone saying "that's too depressing, so I'll play with Monica as mother!" is just bullshitting.

Almost the same thing happens in the thread for A Mother's Love - People that want it to be an incest game, when it explicitly isn't. Even to the point that there are people wanting the MC's actual mother (alive and well) to become a sex option in game.

they cant manually upgrade your tier so you will not get access to previous posts, you will only get access to the $5 posts that are posted within this month. The way i think they will handle it is that the posts that were meant for $5 patreons will also get posted for $1 patreons, and $10 posts will also be posted for $5 and so on.

I think he nailed it on the head. I imagine you might catch more teasers when cheeky posts if your a lower tier.

On a separate note, I just wanted to say thanks again after seeing the continued support from the majority of you guys here and on patreon while we struggle to slay this troublesome EP17 beast. It is really inspiring for us. I hope you guys find it worth the wait. I tried to dampen my hype a lot with the delay, but I really am looking forward to seeing the reactions to some of the things you guys will get a first look at this EP. Which will hopefully be soon (I've moved onto EP18 writing now while the rest finish putting things together for 17). It's also just the start of this evolution of the game and the future looks very sexy.

Okay so i need to ask how are any of you even getting to chapter 16 when I keep freezing on 8 are you using a different version to mine of something?

i come on daily basis in here to read the comment and give a bit of support for dev to keep going
after ep 17 i'll also visit pantreon to supporting there

Sounds like you are playing on gamecor or another unsupported browser based version that those sites have converted for their own gains (they break at the end of the EP8 party with Katie HJ IIRC). Which they messed up and never bothered fixing I might add. Get the public version pc/mac from our patreon or the pirate/android versions here for a much better experience.

Can't wait to see what you guys have worked on for ep 17. Still my favorite game and it gets better and better with each eps.

 

[God of Thunder]

Damn it's been like 5 months since this game was updated I just hope this update will be worth all that waiting.

SO far they haven't let us down, so for me there is no reason to start doubting the quality of the new content.

 

[despelote]

after 6 months there is a whole half episode? amazing. hopefully it won't be over after 10 minutes.

 

[acewinz]

I would go so far as to say that you could probably hold down skip the whole update and it would probably take longer than 10 mins. There is also also more than half the episode that will be ready for viewing even if we split it, if split it would mainly be because the finale of this update is a monster that might get pushed if we can't get all its parts in this month.

 

[KRock19]

I really like the game. There are so many different characters so that more or less everybody should find a favorite one.
I'm a total sucker for the nerdy Jenna and the feisty Debbie. A sandwich with these two young ladies would make my day
I am looking forward to how the story continues and when we finally unravel who has sent the email and if we can get away with the inheritance.....

I know this might be a strange question; but what is your writing process like? Do you layout each girl (lolz) and then decide what your interactivity is going to be like with them in that episode? Like I said before, that Excel spreadsheet must give you anxiety.

 

[MykeRosy]

I really thought he will released part 1 early May but its already end of 2nd week of May.

Personally I see it the same way as playing an RPG like "Skyrim" if you want to play the vanilla game that's fine.
However if you feel that a modded version of the game make the gameplay experience better for "you" then go ahead and enjoy that.

Personally I didn't really care either way, hell if the script had just been something like:
"You have moved to a new city and are staying with an old friend of the family..."
That would have been just fine for me, I just personally didn't want to play/watch/read a story where the MC's is being taken pity on throughout the game because his mother died.

The incest part of the mod was & is irrelevant to me, just make me a narrative I don't have to cringe over so I can enjoy the game.
Someone provided that, so that is what I play the game with.
If you don't like that some people play the game with a different narrative due to a mod, that's fine.
But there is no reason take 'shots' at people playing with the mod, just because you don't like it.

You claim that people who have an incest fetish hide behind phrases like "That's too depressing" and call it bullshitting aka lying.
First of all - there is not fact in any of that, just your personal opinion on the matter.
Secondly - I personally haven't hidden anything, I like incest tagged games most of the time, they are not a main reason why I would pick one game over another, but at least as I explained above, it was minor reason in regards to this game, simply that it changed the narrative.
