VN Ren'Py At the Crossroads of Life: Lily [v0.02a] [Empress Games]

[FatGiant]

TIL games can't have story, only novels can. Damn. I guess I hallucinated all those great games with a good story I've played over the years.

Exactly. You hallucinated. There was no story being told. A story has a structure, continuity and sequence. Remove one of them, you get nothing. Events aren't story. If you can play them in any order, there's no structure. If you can bypass any of them, there's no continuity.

If you want a story, go for VN's, if you don't, stay where you are...

Peace

Looks like it could be fun, but the in-game discord link doesn't work.

Once again, there is a literally button that says, Continue main story top left of the screen, if you dont want to deal with the sandbox events that literally have no real meaning to the story, you don't need to deal with it.

Great, I'm waiting for the sequel.

 

[Ssato243]

[J1215]

I like the dominant Lily!
I like her strong, confident, dominant personality!
I'm looking forward to seeing this (the dominant Lily) route develop!

thx

OK, caught up with the Dev, and the Sandbox in this game isn't too bad, specially with the Universal Mods showing if there is something extra in an area, if you hover over the location. Really am liking where this going, and having Lesbian as an attribute in this game, well, I am going to pick that as much as I can using the Universals as help. Thank you so very much for this introduction, and totally looking forward for more!!!

Hi Everyone!
We’re thrilled to see so much positive feedback about our game across different platforms. Thank you all for your support—it truly means a lot to us!

We’re excited to share that we’re planning to release the next update in February. Here’s a sneak peek at what we have planned:

• Main Story: We aim to add 3 more days of progression to the main storyline.
• New Characters: Three new characters (2 female, 1 male) will be introduced, with more details about them revealed on the final playable day of the update.
• Sandbox Features: We’re expanding the optional sandbox (map-based) gameplay with more content, including:
  • Lily can work out at the gym to improve her fitness.
  • Lily can shop for new outfits at the mall.
  • Lily can try out temporary tattoos to see how they would look on her (though she won’t be able to get them done yet).
  • Continuation of the storyline involving the prostitute seen at the motel on Day 2.

We’re working hard to deliver a rich and exciting update, and we can’t wait to share it with you all. Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you again for being part of this journey with us!

My advice would be to play the game before trashing it. Your sidetrack into trollsplaining what a story is is irrelevant here, since the game has all the elements of a story.

If you want a visual story that has no interaction, read a comic book. If not, stay here.

Peace

The game here is really lacking in graphics, but that actually makes it charming, in a way. I like the writing (the translation is excellent) and the story holds a lot of promise (especially if the simplistic graphics make development faster). So far just a tease, but an enjoyable one that leaves the player anxious to see more. Will consider supporting after a few solid updates.

I like the game. The point system is nice...what would be nice is, you show the points within the decision. I checked every time the stats to see what changes I made. So it would be easier.
What, would be nice too, at the overview map, a green bulp o something like that, to see if you can do something at the location. I was looking through every thing to find a possibilitie.
Will the characters get a stats window, too?

 

[Evokerrr]

The rendering is nice.

 

[ART_obstrel]

nice start, looking forward for submissive path

 

[OVTPVT]

Good start for a new project. I don't know if the Dev is planning to add any new milf characters,but in case he doesn't, small suggestion to raise black lady's age by 10. She looks older than our cousin

 

[CutieLvr]

EmpressGames, an excellent start. Lily is a cutie, and I have a feeling this game is going to be GGGB on steroids, I hope. I, in my game will try to have Lily living a double life. Upstanding accountant during the day and a total slut/whore at night. Most tats and piercing won't be visible when she wears her work outfits, but when she is out of the office and out of her work clothes she becomes a different person altogether. She'll party with bikers and mob gangs, doing drugs, in the middle of gangbangs and even prostituting herself. Sometimes, things will get a little rough for our Lily, but, she kind of likes "rough".

P.S., would you consider throwing in a little incest?? Can make it optional. Add in some old farts and old MILFs too. Girls should be of all types, flat-chested to super D. Being able to change her wardrobe would be nice and to be able to go without underwear. Hair color changes and going with or without pubic hair.

 

[Ssato243]

i would play the lezdom dominant lily wish to know what about the love interest please

 

[Higurashika]

A bit rough at edges, but I like it. We need games like this with no drama, just "wham, bam, thank you ma'am" experience.
