RPGM A New Semester [v0.2.5] [pheno]

[pheno]

Hey so I was wondering can we get an order for the character like who gonna come after the gf for example sorry if it's too much to ask

Hey there! No trouble at all, ask whatever you'd like! To answer your question, you will get to choose the scenes and routes you want to take. I'm trying to design the game that all routes are "optional". Trying. There will have to be SOME overlap just in terms of story and characters but actual sexual content you should have control over in a sense.

Now this may change as development goes on, no promises, but that is the intended gameplay.

Now that I have the ground work finished in 0.2 I think a pure vanilla (non-NTR) route is possible, though not a priority in the slightest at the moment lol

Good evening everyone! v0.2 is FINALLY out! Just in time for the weekend!

Patch Notes:

• Complete Graphical Overhaul! (Sprites and UI are next down the line)
• Added 17 New Animations! (37 total)
• 50+ New Renders
• 8 New Playable Maps
• Added Open World "Sandbox" Gameplay Design
• Added Female MC Diary System (FMC POV)
• Added Day/Night and Weekly System
• Added Phone System (WIP)
• Added Corruption System
• Added Job/Work System
• Added Bus/Fast Travel System
• Added Misc Activities To Pass Time
• 7 New Soundtracks
  
  This update really set the foundation for the whole game. It's a MASSIVE update that I can build the rest of the game on. At the moment I know there are big pacing issues with the current events. The game can feel slow at the moment because most of the systems I added are in their basic functional state and the world/side characters don't have much going on. This is a true 0.2 build. However everything is functioning as intended! I'm very happy about that.
  
  
• Primary Routes to follow in 0.2:
• Mr D (Classroom Window @ Noon)
• Malcohm (Gymnasium Weight Room @ Afternoon)
• Jason (Locker Room @ Noon)
  
  This version WILL receive a 0.2.5 build. It's just to big and needs more refinement/compression(!). If you don't like rough edges I suggest waiting for that.
  As mentioned in a previous post I am genuinely looking for feedback on this version. A couple key areas I am looking for feedback on are:
• Pacing
• Christine's POV only being in the diary room
• Sandbox elements such as activities
• Character development (Main and Side Characters!) Whos your favorite so far?
  
  Anyway, I'm tired boss... haha enjoy the game! I'll make another post this weekend with a 0.3 teaser!

Is there a hide text option?

Is there a hide text option?

Hey there! No, not at the moment. That is planned for 0.2.5 though! I'll be adding many quality of life features in that update.

I can't progress any further cause Mark keeps running into a wall when Christine's mom asks him to come to the kitchen

don't use old saves, just start the game from the beginning

Are you on a new save? 0.2 was such a shift in everything using an old save will break the game significantly. I'll throw a warning up on the front page.

i did just that, almost back to where it was. Figured it might be something like that

Awesome! Let me know if you encounter anything else with a new save so I can note it down for the next update! Thanks!

During week 2, Christine is no longer in her bedroom in the morning when you go into her home, even though you can peep on her, and see her there, and her mother says she's there.

i don't know where to post this but i have an error in the first minute of the game when i talk for the first time to christine in her room.

 

[Shdo]

pheno will there be a plans for an nts route? or a redemption route?

 

[darkprotos78]

this is NTR?

 

[Gromov]

this is NTR?

Yes, and that's a good thing

 

[Lokeyyy]

The new update is OK like the new map/mechanic are good but the lack of scenes and the model who are not the best in my opinion make it really boring and it can be repetitive fast the game and the dev definitely have potential hope the next update gonna be better

Thank you for letting me know, I'll investigate. Thankfully by Week 2 all of her scenes are no longer connected to whether you grab her or not. You should still be able to unlock everything that's available! Next version it will be fixed!

This is the best way to post this! Thank you for reporting. This bug only happens to certain users and is related to WebM. I'm still investigating it but it's to random and only happens to random people... May I ask how you're playing the game/which version you are playing?

pheno will there be a plans for an nts route? or a redemption route?

Hey there! NTS route isn't planned however it wouldn't be hard to add at a later date due to the ground work of 0.2. I'll consider it as a route later on for sure! For now, I'm going to focus on NTR. A few people have already asked for a "Vanilla" route, which might be fun to add down the line.. like Mark interrupts the other pursuers in humourous ways haha

this is NTR?

Yes.

Hey there! Super valid feedback thank you! I'm definitely aware of the pacing issues when the game opens up. I feel the same way as you. This update is really "under the hood" heavy and most of my time was focused on systems and trying to make everything play nice and the updated graphics.

This version will get a 0.2.5 release and I plan on ironing out the pacing problems a bit more by adding more life to the world and side character content (Alice, Gwen, Lisa, Mrs Li, Anne, Melissa, etc) . By 0.3 more content will be added to the main routes which will help as well.

Thank you again for checking out this update!

Side note, do you like the diary system for seeing Christine's scenes? I'm debating whether or not just adding those scenes to the open world and having the diary as a replay only. That would help with pacing as well since most of Christine's content gets condensed into the diary after they've been unlocked.. hmm
