Ren'Py A Town Uncovered [v0.52a Alpha] [GeeSeki]

[RoughlySpecific]

Nothing else since... 2 years?

Technically, the Mrs Smith/Jane/John route is also a separate route. Then there’s the first hint of an Effie/Allaway/John route in the form of the one threesome scene with the two you can trigger after completing Allaway’s route, which might charitable be considered "something else".

Does someone have a save for the beginning of v0.28?
Coming back to this game after a while and lost my save...

If you start the game, it ask you if you’ve played before and lets you select how far along you got with the various routes. Given that old saves are sometimes broken, this is also much more reliable than trying to use old saves.

Be aware that the last ~5 updates (i.e. all of them since 0.28) have each added a bunch of unfinished art to the game. Some of it has been slowly phased out for actual art, but most of it remains. This next update seems intended to chip away on the pile of unfinished stuff, but progress remains glacial, according to the dev log.

I know this has been pointed out before, but the fact that this somehow hasn't been ironed out yet is still just funny to me.

It's the scribbles I find most confusing.

 

[Samhill]

Actually, looking at the change-log, I noticed a scene I never found:
"+Added Allaway x Effie x MC Effie’s Bed H-scene (Finish Miss Allaway’s story, Ask Effie at the Cafe for some fun on a Saturday)"

Edit: Checked out the Allaway x Effie scene. Seems to require waiting for Effie at her house instead of doing something else and then going there at night.

Mind explaining this a bit better? The only thing I get is a BJ scene.

Speaking of ridiculous stuff left unfixed: The sexworld versions of the threegans still have no dialogue in the mall. Or at least it is not implemented. I’m fairly sure there was a changelog line about Geeseki adding dialogue for them some time ago. Wouldn’t be surprised if the dialogue is there somewhere but they forgot to update the code to point to the dialogue instead of the old placeholder…

It's the scribbles I find most confusing.

What I’m most confused by is that the team is often working on the game maybe 0-2 days a week, if extremely open about it due to the public dev log and yet the Patreon followers keep coming. I mean

. The last change was on May 6, before that May 2 and before that Feb 25. Sometimes, there are updates for 3-4 days a week, but that is rare.

1) Complete the Allaway route.
2) On a Saturday, ask Effie to have fun with you.
3) Immediately go to her home and click the option to wait for her.

If you instead do something else first (jogging/card game/work) etc, you just get the standard Effie scene because even the most basic scenes are bugged, I suppose. Feel free to file a bug report about it.

Thanks. I went to bed to nap to get to night before.

Or better yet ask a better question, like, is it scribble free?

The Mrs. Smith and Jane storyline is bugged to high hell, I was in chapter 2.5 where it told me to go to the hallway, I did and nothing happened, so I went to sleep because the map is turned off, so I decide to use the time travel app on the computer, now although it has a different mission, I still try to do them but nothing happens and I'm still stuck inside...

 

[niarrhhh]

That's because you need 11 points for the 20q, with each "honest" answer giving you 1 point, while the "wrong" answer minus 1 point. (which is stupid, because some of the answers are total bullshit)

Here's a list of what is "true"

i know i'm quoting a commentary from 3 years ago, but i'm getting a glitch where the moment you answer the first question, the game simply throws you to the changing tent on the beach, and you get a lot errors when you go back to the cardboard fort and try to do the questionnaire again
errors are like this:

it starts off normal

then suddenly, the "it's empty" message from the beach changing room pops up

then tent...

i can only click out of the tent, and it takes me back to the beach (at daytime, despite it being late night)


that's some really fucked up stuff; whenever i try to do it again after that, i get this type of error for all answers

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
Exception: Required parameter color has no value.

[ChickenDropBox]

I don't know why I keep coming back here expecting things to have changed.

Have I ever told you the definition of insanity?

 

[RoughlySpecific]

The Mrs. Smith and Jane storyline is bugged to high hell, I was in chapter 2.5 where it told me to go to the hallway, I did and nothing happened, so I went to sleep because the map is turned off, so I decide to use the time travel app on the computer, now although it has a different mission, I still try to do them but nothing happens and I'm still stuck inside...

This has been discussed several times over the last few pages. Just follow the guide linked in the OP or in my signature.

the game simply throws you to the changing tent on the beach,

It’s curious how often this specific error comes up at different locations. I think this is the third or fourth different instance of this. No idea how to fix it, though. Write a bug report and hope that at some point within the next half-a-year Geeseki will figure out how to fix it, hopefully.

I don't know why I keep coming back here expecting things to have changed.

I don’t think it ever will. I’ve been keeping the occasional eye on the dev log. At this point I’m fairly sure the next update won’t even be worth the effort of downloading it. A total of 7 days Geeseki has worked on it by my count and the progress fits what you would expect from someone working on it for a single (if intense) week. (The hired coder has also done 15 subtasks in that time. Not sure what exactly that entails since I’m not entirely sure what "Sprite Investigation Coding" means here.)

oh that's fucked up lmao, didn't noticed it was a recurrent error cause i've only been playing from 0.32
worked my way around it by creating another save only to do the sister path, but for some reason, mom x sis path didn't open at all despite all of the story being done at that point (through the skip thing on your PC, but still), which just made me go back to the previous run (which already had been enabled, just stuck since i hadn't finished sis's storyline) and simply skip the questionnaire
kinda fucked up how the only way around some stuff (mostly the mom x sis path) is through skipping it, which was a good idea to troubleshoot stuff, but a lazy way to do so, instead of just fixing the issue at hand

 

[Hoangng]

Someone can tell me how i translate this game ?

 

[msespindola]

All right if you got to the front page there should be a link to Lewdpatcher, this will restore the incest related routes. Afterwards follow the instructions set on the phone.

You have to wait for the MC to come home to see the father having sex with the mother on the couch. After which you'll have to wait a few days before you can talk to the mother again by clicking on the door to her bedroom. She'll begin asking you for stuff and that's when you can go get the icecream from the store.

Problem I have is that the map is greyed and I cannot go anywhere now

Town of Passion, Urban Demons, Insexual Awakening?

Does anyone know games exactly like A Town Uncovered?

Nothing *quite* like ATU, but many have similar aspects.

Summertime Saga is close enough that ATU is often considered a copycat production. Comparing the two, it seems like a mainstream-version of ATU. The world is filled with big-boobed, lusty women who inexplicably want the MC’s dick and don’t look at another man regardless of how sex-positive they are. The father is conveniently dead, the aunt lives alone, the hot woman you deliver pizza to is a single mother, as is your neighbour. There are exceptions, but overall, the husbands you encounter are in sexless/unfullfilling marrriages. (Tony is impotent, the police wife is strongly anti-sex, the sexualized maid somehow managed to always escape the mayor’s attentions, the fish monster never found a mate…) Similarly, the story completely depends on the MC. He actively does everything and he is the single point of failure. He saves the various projects his teachers work on. He frees the maid from the mayor. He investigates the murder and corruption. He brings his aunt success etc etc. There are exceptions, but they are rare. Basically, the world and characters revolve around the MC.

This is in stark contrast to ATU. At least the first few segments of every storyline, including the majority of the main story, is a sort-of walking simulator. You witness the world that acts around the MC, and the other characters are much more dynamic and active than the MC. Half of the mother route the MC having to deal with the demands of a moody mother and aggressive father. The sister and Allaway route are more active, but even there the other characters do things and the relationship often progress through the simple act of witnessing what they are doing. The MomxSis route and the main story are the most extreme examples of this, though at least the main story seems to intend for the MC to act in an active role in the future. As it is, the world feels much more dynamic, I find, but the MC feels bland like soggy white bread.

Insexual(/Incestual) Awakening focused even more on the passivity/others acting on the MC, from what I recall. It also didn’t have any overarching threat or plot beyond various family members suddenly realising they really want to "explore their sexuality" with the MC. He does what others tell him to do, then pops a boner, then they do something sexual.

Town of Passion also features the MC walking around the town and starting relationships with characters while an overarching threat needs to be fought, but I the manner it does so is quite different. The MC is literally the Chosen One™ as well as only male resident. He has to solve the quests and train because that is what a Chosen One™ does and because a lewd goddess tells him to. Also an RPGM game with various "find the object" or "complete the puzzle" type quests.

I’m unfamiliar with Urban Demons, but it seems to be a corruption type game, which is quite different to any of the above.

Regarding other games that might be considered vaguely, sort-of similar:

Fantasy Valley is another Point&Click game in which you play as a young student, who is new to the city, has to investigate/solve an overarching threat and meets plenty of new characters. The world feels less sex filled compared to ATU/SS/IA, but there is still a lot. The game features a pleasant mixture of actively doing stuff and witnessing how others do stuff. The story is very different and extremely linear, but it playing through it I liked in a similar way as I liked ATU.

Solvalley School is another dating sim sandbox game. There is no big plot or goal, it’s just the MC messing around with various girls. I’m mentioning it mostly because it might scratch the itch of those who desperately want more sexworld content. The situations and characters are absurd. The MC has no morals beyond "fucking girls = good" and the women all crave a big strong man with an enormous penis (openly or secretly).

Life in Woodchester seems to be intended to be a game styled after Summertime Saga and the parts I played felt similar enough, but the custom game engine didn’t run well on my machine. Might be worth checking out.
