Ren'Py Adventurer Trainer [v0.2.1a] [PastryIRL]

[NotNunyo]

Still one of the greatest games on here.

Take your time. I will wait forever for the next release.

Just wanted to pass along some holiday joy to the dev.

If your still looking for personality disorders (from the DSM) for the characters...

• Psychopath hasn't been taken.
  • Promiscuous as fuck.
  • Talks abut feelings ALL THE TIME. (Like a CEO)
    • Has no clue what they are.
    • Will try to say they "love" this or that in every sentence.
• Disociative (aka Multiple Personalities) is kinda a myth, but this is fantasy who cares.
  • Wil wake up in strange places.
  • Will not remember half the conversations they've had.
  • Maybe should keep it down to only 2 persaonlities.
    • One Agressive (Any class)
    • One Passive (Any class)
• Codependentency might be hard to show in conversation
  • Will stay close to MC.
  • Will attempt to Agree with MC no matter what batshit thing he says.
  • Doesn't necessarily mean she'll sleep with him, she's not a psychopath.

Just some ideas in case you're still pondering.

Cheers,
Beau

Hey, Adventurers!

v0.2.0a is now in Public Access! It fell short of my intended targets for content, but it's still a good-sized update. Lots of gameplay/technical changes and improvements, three new H-scenes, a bunch of fixes, and a much-awaited infinite dungeon!

As always, I look forward to hearing your thoughts and hope you enjoy the newest release!

glad this game is still alive, i thought it died

 

[RoCu]

I also thought this one was dead so I never got around to play it. And just curious but are there yunyun h-scenes?

Not as long as I live

So just curious but are there yunyun h-scenes?

Yunyun has a very short basic H-scene so far but I plan to add more in the near future

The game looks good and I kind of want to try it, but I'm kind of conflicted. Is it worth the effort it would take to customize the hard scripted MC name? I saw kojos3000's post and it almost seems like the Dev is going out of there way to make it as obnoxious as possible to fix.

Tremendous update. I loved the intro videos. The only thing I wish is for, as a fervent self inserter, is that you could change the name of the MC in the beginning, and be able to change all of its various versions.

I am referring to:

Luckily I have URM so I can just do the rename text function, but it's annoying each time I see another version of the name, I'm not experienced with manipulating strings in Python/Ren'Py and making Aqua's drunken dialect based on a variable, but maybe in the case where a custom MC name is being used, an alternative could just be that when drunken-speech it is just italicized or bolded.

Any chance anyone has a more complete list to make it easier?

Brother it is a Konosuba game with Kazuma as the protagonist, it’s literally the plot.
Why is there this obsession with renaming all MCs.

The first versions before the rework had a blank name protagonist, but neither Pastry and some fans liked it so they returned with the original (Goat) Kazuma.

Not playing a game just because you cannot rename the MC is crazy imho (Especially when this one is incredible)

Making proud the Soviet Yunyun

I get it's a fan game based on an existing IP. Keeping the MC from the original story is fine, but adding an option to rename him doesn't really take anything away. Anyone that wants to keep him named Kazuma can simple name him Kazuma, people who want to self insert can name him what they want. The option for a custom name works for everyone, hard scripting the name turns away the self inserts.

Adding a custom name option isn't that simple in this case; characters often refer to Kazuma using his various (canon) nicknames like Trashzuma, Scumzuma etc., which are variations of his name. That, of course, doesn't work for custom/user-defined names.

On top of that, there are multiple cases where characters (Yunyun in particular) stammer, turning "Kazuma" into "K-K-Kazuma", or instances of Aqua being drunk and slurring the name, turning it into "Kazhuma-a ..~", neither of which would work with custom names.

Sure, I could invest time and effort to separate the two, completely ignore Kazuma's nicknames for custom characters, and maybe even have an automatic name transformation for cases like slurring/stammering... But it'd take away from the writing (which would be my biggest gripe with it), and use up a lot of my bandwith since this would require time and effort to implement and support in every new release.

this is a paody game tho bro. it makes little to no sense to rename kazuma at all. adding to that there's just WAY too many puns on his name to be worth it.

however if this was an original story with an original MC i would agree with you. but not with this game.

Fair enough, you have to do what you think is best for your story. Not really holding anything against you at all, just looking for ways to make it more relevant to my interests because I think the game looks great, I just hate hard scripted MC names.
