Ren'Py Completed After the Inferno [v1.0] [Classy Lemon]

[Classy Lemon]

I've personally been having an issue where it seems like the cinematics/x-scenes aren't playing. Not sure if anyone else has run into it so far.

Could you try changing the volume up and down a little and see if it makes a difference? The audio has been screwing a bit with my cutscenes in the past

Thanks, yeah, that fixed it. Not sure why I turned it down.

Looks pretty neat.

 

[phreadom]

Alright, I take it back. I started playing it and the big eyes seem restricted to the women. I'm glad I tried it out. Enjoying it so far.

It was only the idea of the big eyes on the men that weirded me out.

Well, that settles it then Classy Lemon. The first release wasn't just lucky, you're actually very talented and/or hardworking with a great team. I'm comfortable leaving a glowing review now and providing financial support if I can get Patreon to cooperate. Will you be making a SubscribeStarAdult account or are you going Patreon only?

I assumed there would be a few more scenes with this release, but I didn't expect like 6 voice-acted cutscenes and half of a complete character storyarc. There are games on here that have content development go 4 times longer with 1/3 the quantity and lower quality!

I would be remiss in not providing some constructive criticism. Honestly, none of the low-hanging fruit is there like big typos, poor grammar, nonsensical actions by characters, etc. You must already have a practiced eye on this. A few things I noticed:

at this point the main thing i can think of that doesnt give this game the credit it deserves is the female models.
im pretty sure i've said they look like something from a Pixar film.

the problem is when it comes to daz or 3d games that arent the other programs like HS or Koikatsu most people are used to characters looking like this

Spoiler: images are from seperate games.

possibly the make model as well.

as you can see the models are different than what people are used to. sandbox also hurts a game but in this case as someone who doesnt like sandbox its barely even needed. but the tag can keep people away.

honey select has its model and what ppl are used to when then play a HS game.
Koikatsu is the same

compare this game to others and the art style sticks out pretty easily. whether that's good or bad who knows.

me personally i like the game but i cant deny the models are ...different.

but idk that's just my theory. as i said i like the game so far.

Considering that the game says "male protagonist" and keeps showing that character, what am I supposed to think? Seems like poor advertising to me.

I've downloaded the game and will check it out, but seriously, what a crap choice of preview images if that's the case.

That maybe, jussst maybe, it's the MC's LI. Could be that. But that is unheard of. No game ever in the history of gaming ever showed the LI of the MC before. Or any of the other chars in the game for that matter.

Don't be a prick. I pointed out that the way they were presented in the preview images made them look like the MC, and in a weird androgynous way so you couldn't tell if they were supposed to be a girl or a boy etc.

Kyra looks cute, but I don't care for Cressa. And then men, who hardly appeared in the preview images, generally look normal.

I'm glad I checked out the game, but I think the preview images could do a better job of illustrating what the game is actually like, what the men look like, etc. I think it would help a lot of people not mistakenly avoid the game thinking it was all weird big eyed people, including the men. (Even though it is weird to have the women like that, but not the men... but I'm glad the men are normal at least.)

It's definitely confusing, I had the same problem being unclear if Cressa was the MC or not but decided to check it out and I'm glad I did. I agree too Kyra is much more appealing to me than Cressa.

Thanks man, really glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the great feedback. I haven't considered Subscribestar really, is it something you can recommend perhaps?

Is there or will there be any NTR/sharing in the game?

you ever consider using inner dialogue to clear some things up?

she wanks off MC and thinks: "whoa he actually went for it? ok dont screw it up"

for example.

Maybe, I'd have to find a way to do it properly. Could be jarring to the reader to just switch character perspective.

I have no plans for it.

in most cases when a character is thinking it'll change the text font to italic or inside a parenthesis. other times where the person who is talking name is displayed it'll switch to something like MC - MC thinking.

but yeah its a pretty common thing to transition from outer dialgoue to inner dialouge.

but that's just my 2 cents.

Yeah but I mean transitioning inner dialogue between characters. So far it's all seen through the MCs perspective and all inner dialogue belongs to him.

oh yeah....fair point

Decent renders, good/original art style, but by God the writing is mediocre. The phrase "Into the inferno" is used at least 3 times in the first battle the MC's mercenary group takes part in for no reason at all. It isn't a natural phrase.

The MC breaks down into tears, after walking "into the inferno" for what seems to be different somehow to the other countless times he has done it? I

Everything is so jarring and is only worth immersing yourself in if you want the porn aspect. But even then, most of the scenes are just a single animation or render of someone else doing it. With the odd one out, being the MC doing a side-character doggy-style from an angle or two.

Fantastic intro though! Possibly the best start to a VN I have seen. But for what seems to be a novel that takes itself very seriously, the writing comes across as amateurish, and unnatural.

Sounds like your issues with the writing stems from your own comprehension skills.
Also don't downplay the sex scenes like that. While there are indeed scenes of random people doing it (it's weird that those optional extra scenes count as a negative to you), there are multiple scenes of the MC having sex, with numerous different positions and angles in addition to the still renders that were added in the new update. Not to talk about the animation that's leagues ahead of anything else on this site, and the fact that they have paid voice acting. Your statements are flawed.
