VN Ren'Py Abandoned A.O.A. Academy [Ch.5 Gold] [TLGGAMES]

[Havik79]

Wow this game really do a good job making you fell like a shit everytime you have to choose between any of the girls, one moment you love Jenny to death them the next scene you just want to hold Rebeca and never let go, then Valery comes around, etc, etc

That is the point, you are not supposed to be dating all of them, although there is supposed to be a limited harem route, Jenny group or Ash and some girls.

Hello,
First of all, thank you for your work!
Second, all the links for the pc version are corrupted... Is it from me or from the files?

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone! I'm here to show the progress of Chapter 4.
First and foremost, I've reworked how phones work, adding some new features in the process.

The first new feature is the ability to change the wallpaper of your phone. They will be unlocked through playing the game normally, and have similar unlocking conditions to gallery images.

Chatting is mostly the same, albeit with some graphical changes.

None of those designs are finalized yet and I don't have any intention to put too much emphasis when it comes to the phone. Personally, I don't think the phone adds much when it comes to the type of story this game is telling.

Next, The current completion rate of the project is at about 2/3 of its way to the current goal. The majority of the story will go from dawn > early afternoon, and due to story reasons, most of the afternoon part of the day is skipped. I can't say too much without just spoiling the entire thing, so I'll end the conversation about the story here.

We're now close to the climax of the First season (Act I). Difficult and tough situations are about to come, and now, a lot of characters are / will be involved in the feud between Jenny and her brother, Adam.

Meanwhile, Rebecca's past is also catching up to her, with both storylines reaching the conclusion in the final release of Act I.

Release date ?
Realistically speaking, Chapter 4 should come at around early > mid-November, depending on whether I found the need to add additional scenes. I don't want to extend it any further than that if I can help it.

Thank you for all of your support! I truly do appreciate them, and they are one of the reasons why this project happened and there's no other way to return your support by producing good chapters that you can enjoy!

I was surprised with Jens route, it is definitely the better choice than Ash, being with Ash just felt like a second chance romance, almost like, shit, I think Mills and Boon was the names of the crappy books my sister read when she was younger, but it kind of feels pointless after doing Jenny's route.

Jenny feels much more important to be with her, helping her relax, and feel better (not just the mutual at the end), being someone she can trust and open up and connect with.

It's the complete opposite for me.

The Jenny stuff feels a little forced at times, like how she does something sneaky to be alone with MC. Or giving side-glances every time we talk to another girl even though we've only met 3 days ago. She feels more important because the plot currently focuses on her and Valery.

With Ashley it feels so natural. She's so genuine. No sneaky tactics to be alone with MC, No side-glances, barely asks questions when with another girl. etc.

Being with Ash just felt like making her happy, with Jen it feels like you are more important to her than for Ash, like you are for lack of a better cliche, Jenny's rock, and helping her with what she has been and will go through, and helping her with what she is missing in life.

Then again it kind of feels like that with Jenny's group, they are all a bit "broken" and need healing.

Again I think the opposite. It really feels like you are more important to Ash than Jen. You are childhood friends reconnecting and she cares so much about staying by your side again that she's willing to put aside her feelings and not be selfish. With Jenny I feel compelled sometimes to be with her and help her relax and feel better because of all the shit she is going through. And it's like she's in love with me despite knowing me for 3 days. Whilst you have history with Ashley and we are progressing so well without much of a storyline or drama yet.

The first new feature is the ability to change the wallpaper of your phone. They will be unlocked through playing the game normally, and have similar unlocking conditions to gallery images.

On a side note this Ashley wallpaper is incredible...


I'd assume act 1 focuses on Jenny's group; Jen/Val/Rebecca and a bit of Jade. So act 2 could focus on Ash/Vick/Aurora and maybe Sung Ji?

 

[Havik79]

Well that is your choice, I never felt like she was doing sneaky stuff, and so what if she is, she wants to be with us so why not try and get alone time, and given this isn't going to be a full-blown harem game, any side glances would be normal, I mean do the women or maybe men, you date like you cosying up with others.
No that is not a dig at you.

I like it, feels more natural, and hopefully will lead to her being open to more things.

At least I hope so, or I am royally fucked, because if it ever did come down to one woman, then the woman currently my wallpaper, Rebecca is going to win all day every day every time, and the others are going to end up crying into a soy latte, like some of the users here.

When that newer mod finely comes out, I will play through the different routes, but just saying, Ash just feels like a cliche romance book, but as I said, I will still play her route in future, I do like her, I do like almost all of them, except shit, Ash little buddy whose name escapes me, and not a huge fan of Vicky.

I hope there are more wallpapers for your phone, needs a Rebecca one.

 

[Ahchi]

I might be wrong, While she is not a love interest,
Dani's computer skills could be some help in future updates.

Or it could just be a red herring

ohh my god,! i've playing this game since 1ch and i have no idea how the fuck i missed that!Now im happy!

Seems like this game unless I use a mod I'll have to run through a new game/save for each path..it makes it damn near impossible to stack these paths for one play through. Right away in it starts making you choose one way or the other here. And it's not like a little content is lost if you choose one over the other. It's quite a bit. Some paths have some good like with Jade, but other paths super pg. Only through Ch1 still rolling though this thing...see how it goes. The art is great though. Could tone down some of that skin grain on the renders, makes these young people look a bit old up close. It's a fine line between it being too smooth where it doesn't look remotely real to overly artifacts on the skin. It's close here but it's bordering on over done. (Not a complaint mind you, it's a critique because it is so good you start noticing those little things would make it next level.)

Some issues with typos as well but that can be corrected no problem..so far it's interesting..I have to figure out what the best way to play this is going to be. Single play through won't cut it. But trying to figure out where the branchings to do the saves are going to be crucial so that I don't fill up 30 pages of saves here.

I've only done one full playthrough but my first I plain restarted the game due to screwing things up.
So in terms of paths up to chapter 3 I have:
Ashley Path: Disabled
Valery Path: Disabled
Rebecca Path: Disabled
Jenny Path: Enabled
Jade Path: Enabled
Sung Ji Path: Enabled
Vicky Path: Enabled
Elizabeth Path: ??? Future Chapter
Aurora Path: ??? Future Chapter
So I failed to unlock three paths, I need to experiment more to see if more is possible in one playthrough but the game blocks you off at every turn and it's really hard to judge what the consequences will be. It doesn't feel very natural at times the way you can get knocked off paths from one decision so you can never again hang out with that girl Also said girl suddenly loses all interest in you lmao. Using mods to increase relationships probably helps but enabling other paths through mods probably would break the game

Notice that you have mention only one Ashley,
However There appears to be two Ashley paths i) Ashley-Solo, and ii) Ashley-Harem,
You also mention the Jade and the Jenny paths,
But there also appears to be a joint Jade/Jenny path as well.

Hi. Sorry, I just happened to see your post. Haven't play the game yet. From what I understood, game try to lock you to one or another girl very often. Isn't it very weird because of harem tag ? I'm just wondering about possible paths, was curious if it's possible to fool around with everybody in one playthrough. After the reading your answer to the quoted post I have a feeling that tag was added by a mistake.

If there is harem I'm not sure how that's even possible as the game pure locks you out of a couple of girls to the friendzone based on your choices (unless things change in future chapters)

Currently there is barely any fooling around at the moment x3 scenes with one girl and x1 with another it's all a slow build up. I did some experimenting just now and it's possible to end chapter 3 with all paths open apart from two of the girls. It's almost a better experience if you use the mods to boost every girls relationship to 25 at the start of the game then play from there with no worries. (as the game is not lenient when it comes to missing out on rep gains)
I ended up with Jenny/Rebecca/Jade/SungJi/Vicky/Elizabeth/Aurora enabled or open at the end of chapter 3 with only Valery/Ashley disabled... You need to make some specific choices as far as I can remember:

We were informed/warned by the game developer that there would be a harem but Not as we expect it.
Going by hints in the game i.e. The "Dreams" we will not be able to have a full Harem
as it seems that something untoward will happen to at lease one of the ladies.

Chapter 3 brought my expectations down a lot. This is supposed to be about AoA Academy not some mafia depraved awakening wanna be plot

No, It's about a a number of people associated with the A.O.A. Academy.
Chapter 3 was Val's story , why she is at the academy.
Also it opened Rebecca's story, and advanced many others

Yeah... That's not confusing at all lol

 

[Havik79]

At this point you can have either Jenny or Ashley but not both is my understanding, then possibly more on the side, how many is another question altogether.

 

[Abhai]

I liked this game, but, as I was checking if there was some news on updates, I noticed that we also have here that ridiculous notice "everyone who mentions the game who must not be mentioned will have their posts removed" (something along this line). Is it to mock the other game which started -- I think... or it was here? -- this ridiculous trend (can I mention it? or there's a penalty too? It starts with "Co..." and ends with "..ng"... let's call it "Cong"), or the dev is being serious about that? And the game ain't even a BaDIK ripoff... I hope it's just a joke or, otherwise, it would be a fucking uptight retentive ass insecurity...

has nothing to do with the dev, yet with staff/mods, as in beginning there were too many trolling comments around.
and if you check the reviews, you can see various opinions, more or less subjective ofc.
even some dumbass "reviews" are left unharmed, as that latest one made by the thing usually being flushed away, or left behind, yet here it has permission to write, or even make reviews (inclusion and all that blah-blah-rights-blaah shit).

 

[Havik79]

Oh thanks for that, needed a good laugh, no believable characters, and whings about lack of sex because real women spread their legs when you say hi.

 

[gamingdevil800]

Definitely not Valery anyway as there is also a choice that makes you choose between Jenny and Valery.
I think it's actually possible as of chapter 3 to have all of the paths enabled in one playthrough if you choose Ashley well except for Jenny
