Ren'Py A Home in the Desert [v0.4] [Misarmor]

[Insomnimaniac Games]

Damn, I forgot to comment on the fine print! Yes, this is a *corruption* game. Using the family to make ends meet is the whole point as I said in a previous comment, I probably should have added "sharing" instead of "public sex" in the game tags, although there will be public sex too. NTR is a term I would hesitate more to use I think, it kinda reminds me of the feelsbadman kind of NTR where you see a cuck cry-fapping on a corner of a room where his lover gets railed LMAO, that surely won't happen in my game.
Also, Larry and Stanley are just good friends

Will sharing be optional? If it's not, then you lost me. Sure it may not be ntr, but people who dislike ntr probably dislike sharing as well. Could probably do something like pimping makes a ton of money, but there are other, slower ways to do it as well. Though if that's what you want to do with your game then so be it, I just won't play it.

I'm hoping for a kind of OnlyFans route where you can have sex with yourself and/or family members in front of the webcam for money without having to physically pimp them out. Doing more daring things would bring more money in such a scenario.

NTR is a rather subjective matter because what may cause jealousy in player X may not do so in player Y. For me personally it depends on the setting and it's too soon to tell, but there seems some genuine affection between the MC and some of the family members so pimping them out would probably cause jealousy for me.

But: it's your game!

That's a fantastic idea.

To be honest, I don't like the idea of multiple routes. It kinda breaks the immersion for me. As for your point, I am one that dislikes NTR but likes sharing . I really don't mind LI having sex with others if the MC is willing (or in my case even *incites* it) and if they're having sex with nameless people just providing the dicks. I guess I could try to think of ways for the girls to make money in more tame ways, but right now they're all though about with exhibitionism or public use in mind.

Alright you do you. I'm out, but good luck with your game.

This is quite a mess of a start to the game.

First why have people check the same bloody box 3 times in a row just to progress the story without proper indication.
"Read the letter" OK wtf would you leave it in the box instead of putting it in the MC inventory which the picture went into?
Same thing with the ad/phone call. Why am I having to look in a small box to make a call from a cell phone...

Then you make us physically waste so much time clicking skip 1h until you can sleep EVERY DAY FOR A WEEK!

Then when you finish the story mention oh, how about these interactions which you likely saw before but offered nothing AND STILL OFFER NOTHING!

Besides seeing MC whack one off, pic of your Mom and a partial glimpse of the one sister what is there in the game. Hell even after getting the picture MC does nothing with it.

Sandbox games is one type that needs some proper content when initially released, hell toss in something at the end just so people don't feel like they wasted their time having to blunder through the quests, it don't need to be cannon stuff just something to satisfy them.

Also don't waste peoples time by forcing them to physically have to waste in game days when there is no simple way to do so.

Another brilliant sandbox where you don't know what the fuck you're doing without walkthrough, again these idiotic wandering around empty rooms with nothing to do. God, less than 1% of developers can make a playable sandbox, stop thinking those developers are you.

Trans women exist in real life, the "XX with a dick" is the fake fantasy

Your metaphor should be more like: gold that used to be lead but was transmuted, vs. being handed a picture of "real" gold

Anyway, don't mean to derail the thread, to each their own

Gold transmuted from lead would be able to be used for everything "real" gold can be used for and have the same chemical make-up of "real" gold because it couldn't be told apart from real gold somebody didn't transmute by any metric.
Now whether the same in regards to their authenticity goes for futas and transsexuals is an ideological question not worth getting into on a porn forum, but the same can't be said for either when it comes to being able to tell them apart.
TLDNR: Bad metaphor.

I feel like you should add a small hud to the in-game screen that tells you what you need to do with the current quest. Like "Find the attic", "Pick a ladder", "Come back to the box and call the old dude", etc. If the other users didn't explain what I needed to do on this forum I wouldn't even know what the heck I should do.

In fact, that's what happened the first time I played. I just kept napping to pass the time and visit each room and nothing happened so I just thought that the game had nothing in it except the map. And as you can expect from a gamer I never found the attic on the ceiling. Gamers never look up.

Another thing, the whole box quests are a bit bad designed. You need to come back to it like 4 times. You could add a smartphone or something like that to call or message the grandpa after you interact with the box the first time and you get the phone number and that's it. Heck, the whole quests, stats and everything could be integrated there (That's what a lot of other games do too).

Finally, the "visit" of the friend. OMG, what the heck was that? "Wait until the friend visits you" and then you need to sleep for like 2-4 days straight doing nothing. I just stayed in the living room and spammed to wait 1 hour. Seriously you should have made him visit each day at 8 am that way the next day you can already talk to him. After that he disappears.

Also there are some bugs with the wait functions. If you pass the night outside spamming the 15, 30 or 1h option you get a black screen and then when it's 6-8am everything appears again. Same with some other rooms of the house. If you watch the weather with the TV the game also crashes.

As a final advice, since your game is a sandbox add a function to know where the heck the girls are. Some games add a small image of the different rooms that you can also use to tp and add a small image with the girls that are there, others use the smartphone that I mentioned.

Other than that the art is pretty awesome, the game just lacks A LOT of content and "content".

well fuck knowing that just ruin this for me

So is there an android port or is it not ready yet

 

[CamaroFan432]

1: YES, absolutely. It's actually what I meant when I put the tag "public use". Maybe I should have used the tag "sharing" for more clarity?
2: Hmm... Maybe, maybe not, would depend on the skill I guess. Thing is, I intend to make things not *too* grindy by making whatever skill-raising activity give you something else at the same time. Like working your job ALSO increasing your "creativity" stat for example.
3: Pretty good, thanks for asking . It's not every day you get to release a demo for your first game... ^^

ALSO I'm taking the occasion to clarify something: Alice does NOT have a pussy. It's said in the intro, in the game's universe female sandwiches just come with the extra schmeat every now and then... And that's it

Well, if Alice is without female reproduction organs, she is DEFINITLY NOT a futa but a dickgirl/shemale, because futas do have the whole female organs. You should correct that in your overview and inside the game to make it clear for people that are specifically looking for a futa game and not for dickgirls.

With your unavoidable sharing plans I will also definitly skip it, too. Not into the whole sharing and NTR thing. The start was good, but I won't stick around for things that are unpleasing for me to see.

Best of luck.

 

[ThatGuy010!]

A walkthrough would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Yngling]

May I ask, are you talking about actual dialogue or just the narrator speaking? They don't work the same way. I can't spacebar-skip the narrator speech, and I can skip the regular dialogue

Think the narrator part, but in most (all?) other Renpy games there is no difference.

I think what the dev is trying to say with the term "Futa" is that the MC didn't transition from male to female but instead was born as she is.

It's fantasy but not in this game's world.

I can live with that. A trans character would likely have a different personality due to being confused about gender identity and what-not. This MC is just content with the way she (?) was born.

That's because I made a custom screen for the narrator parts. I'll just add a key press action, thank you for your feedback

There is no interpretion with the term futa. Futanari is the japanese term for hermaphrodite, a person born with the complete male and female reproduction organs. Futa is just the short form for this gender. That being said, hermaphrodites are plainly fictonal. Calling a dickgirl/shemale, which do exist in the real world, futa is as wrong as saying a donkey is a horse! Just because most of the western culture is dumb and influenced by the more than ignorant porn industry, doesn't make it right to missuse a term for a very specific gender. Also, it's missleading for people like me, that are specifically looking for games with actual futas.

Hermaphrodites exist outside of fiction as well (though their sex organs are rarely functional and they're so incredibly rare that they're not really relevant for anything) and Futanari is not nearly as tightly defined in Japan as you believe it to be. You can go all the way back to doujins from the 80s and find plenty of both versions being called that (the original american shemale pornography that had a major influence on it in the 80s didn't have both sets of genitals as well for obvious reasons). The same goes for newhalf though I think that term mostly fell out of favour since then.

If it makes you feel any better people have been discussing it for literal decades and it has fuck-all to do with "western culture" being dumb and the reason why the discussion is ongoing is because the people in the actual country it originates from don't see much of a difference in too many cases to call either version wrong so it's mostly done by people (both in Japan and anywhere else) trying to insist on a certain definition and people who listen to those people. Lately the window has been shifting a bit and more people would agree with you, partially probably because of transsexuals becoming better defined in the minds of most.

I even get the distinction you're trying to make between futanari and shemales and frankly, I think it's not even a bad thing and would make a lot of stuff simpler for most people involved if everybody would agree with you (which is another part of the reason why the distinction has slowly been getting more popular), but stop trying to pretend you have some kind of authority or truth on your side here because that's really just not the case.
It's a fuzzily defined term from another country where it's still very much in use in the exact way you say is wrong, which might be a bad thing for numerous reasons but it means that at best you can argue for what it should mean and not for what it does mean even if the world would be a better/simpler place if you were actually right.

I think I prefered when you guys were upset about the lack of content in my game
