VN Ren'Py Layla: Shattered Hopes [Ep.4] [OtB Games]

[7767]

Overview:
Layla is a young, ambitious, yet deeply flawed woman who chooses to leave her old life behind for the city’s promises. She’s no naive victim—just someone bold enough to gamble everything.
But the city doesn’t reward courage. It tests her morals, tempts her desires, and—if she’s not careful—breaks her spirit.
Will you guide her to triumph? Or let the corruption consume her? Every step forward costs something.
The question is—how much is she willing to lose?

Attention! The game is optimized for play with sound and sound effects enabled. I strongly recommend keeping the music and sound effects turned on. Certain story moments utilize the musical score as a powerful dramatic device. Without it, some scenes may lose much of their emotional depth and impact.​

The city doesn’t welcome her with open arms. Instead, it tests, and tempts her.

Layla: "Ew, pervert! Did you just get a boner... Can't you control that thing?!"
Ugly Bastard: "I do not command him, I'm simply his HUMBLE GUIDE."


THX for sharing...

 

[potatoHead42]

Sounds like my kinda game! Good luck dev

...thx for the share....good luck...

 

[Jarulf]

Good luck. Probably not for me, but I hope you find an audience here

The game's about whoring yourself to ugly bastards it seems.

1. Emotional impact. I believe photos convey more emotion than video. Even with today’s advanced video technology, photographs remain in high demand because they freeze decisive moments — those where time feels distilled into a single, perfect frame.

Damn. For a moment i thought Mark Jefferson had found his way into the F95 abyss.
To qoute a few lines of him:
„A picture tells a thousand stories. Which is exactly what I try to capture in my work.“
„Photography is about the eye, not the technology.“


Anyway, planned tag list looks long but not bad so far. Seems like this will have a lot freedom for choices and branches in all kind of directions. Let's see what piece of art our dear dev will create.
Or as Mr. Jefferson would say:
„You have a gift. You just have to use it. Frame the world only the way you envision it.“

Sorry, couldn't resist...but i tried, i swear!

While the game does explore darker themes, it’s not just about 'whoring yourself to ugly bastards.
I’m aiming for nuanced characters—yes, there will be some creeps (where would the drama be without them?), but also well-written, believable people.

As for mindless exploitation? Nah. There’s actually a badass storyline where Layla can thrive in the city—power, ambition, and hard choices included. Stay tuned!

My, this is interesting, you have my attention. Thank you for answering!

I played this game - it's awesome!

Well there is barely 20 min of content in 0.1 and the current tags are accurate. There is nothing but a short groping scene (fully clothed) in 0.1 and the episode ends after the train ride to town.

I like the promise of the game, so lets wait for a lot more updates.

Also OtB Games plz add an opacity slider for the textbox!
1/5 to 1/4 of the renders are basically hidden every time there is text on the screen.
And i dont feel like pressing H all the time.

Been smoking funny things??

This does make things sound a lot more interesting.

 

[AGreen289]

It's not even a demo. This is a teaser, nothing more. And then I flipped through half of it without reading it, because there is TOO much internal dialogue without any action. Absolutely not interesting at the moment.

Thanks
