VN Ren'Py Completed Battle of the Bulges [v1.0] [EpicLust]

[zapallbugs]

Cheat this is not good, because the game crashed and go back to the main menü and the message you cheat came

In this game it is only usefull to cheat when you need to have something and don't have it. Eg for strength, you need it to armwrestle Mitch at the lifeguard station or on day 4 to fight the shady guy on the bus. If you don't need it, it does you no good to cheat something, and as you found out you may get caught and it is game over. Just cheat whatever you need in the place you need it and no more than you need. Then you will never get caught for cheating.

That is, if you decide to cheat. I still think you will have more fun when you don't.

also if you are gonna cheat just set it to the max which is 5+n where n is that day number, ie day 4 max strength is 9 if you do that you wont reach the cheating checks. Yet as said before cheating is pointless because as long as you do the daily workout to get +1 which can be done in several scenes that also get you lust points you wont fail any strength checks.

While I concur with sjackson, if you must cheat I advise not to do it on anything that has to do with lust points, strength, money etc. Only cheat on time and do all the rest the classic way. There are no cheat checks on time, guaranteed. Well, up to now. Maybe Tim is reading this and will suprise us in the future

I'd argue that the game is almost too easy as is

Why anyone would cheat is beyond me, especially since Tim already let's you see everything

I think there is a healthy degree of challenge. Especially in say some of the optimized routes zapalbugs has posted. I tried his most recent 10 girl run, and it wasn't a total giveaway. I'm so set in my ways, I never thought to not daydream on Day 2 in class. Thus get all the girls, along with a +1 from Teagan. Nor did I expect that getting disciplined by the principal would replace detention.

Granted I still ran into slight glitches, like drinking some 'White Bull' at Tanya's door on Day 4 (Night 2) and it went back to the first night. Also had a weird thing happen with the wet t-shirt contest where you console Halle and it seems like its 50/50 for a lust point consoling her, but even when I got the point, she disappeared. With Laura I was able to curse Jose or Damian again as well and went to the sex scene. So maybe that was buggy as well.

I did manage to get her by becoming a judge on the wet t-shirt contest. That also allows getting the col coin as it compensates for the lust loss. But you still lose a point from Chantelle and Sandy.

A small tips and tricks guide for the current version of the game as promised. Be aware that a step-by-step walkthrough is quite difficult to make due to the sandbox element and thus this guide is not a step-by-step walkthrough! I'll repost a more step-by-step walkthrough here (outdated as it only goes up to day 3) made by someone else (don't remember his/her name so sorry if you are that person) a while back and that I found lying around for those that really require a more detailed walkthrough. Have fun playing the game and most of all enjoy!

I'm late to the game, but after seeing the lengthy tips and tricks guide, I feel it is my duty to tell you that you're the hero middle earth deserves.

I am sorry about that. I reported the Tanya + White Bull to Tim and then fixed it locally on my copy. In the assumption that there would be a november bugfix update. But Tim decided to skip on that and go straight for 0.5. The double curse puzzles me a bit. I think that was fixed on the september or october update. Are you sure you are running the october update? The outcome of the non-jury version of the t-shirt contest is a bit shaky. I think in some Halle pathes there a bits of code missing, only the epiclust check in one case and both the points and ecpiclust check in others. We'll see how this turns out in the next release.

I was going with the most recent update. I do remember doing one consoling where the lust point was awarded with no epic lust. I rechecked my math because it would have been 10. For that I believe Doris won. For the other where she said, 'Well why didn't you vote for me' (no point, but given the dialogue this sounded intentional) Chantelle won.

Any news for next update?

Not before year's end I'm afraid, I fell too far behind lately. I paused December so early January for patreons.
One of the reasons being I pissfarted around too much thinking and working on a future game in parallel, which I shouldn't have. Since I offered this to my patreons yesterday as a proof I wasn't lying, I might as well post it here. It's a title screen for that potential future game. Feedback welcome.

If you have not downloaded the September update under the main download on the first page the gallery will not work. There is no cheating per se, but to open up the console it is Shift+o but there is no need for any cheat except if you are lazy and want to do something like money=50. This is not a grinding game so its got no aspect that you button mash for.

You need the october update, not the september update, for the gallery. The october update is not on the OP, but you can get it from Tim's blog here

You must be registered to see the links

I think the lawbreaker achievement is impossible without cheating (so far):
Day 2, if you see Lolly and get arrested, you go straight to the evening scenes at home, so you can't get the pass from Debby's house.
If you get the pass at 1800 (earliest possible), it's now 1900 and you don't have time to go to the beach.

You can't get into Audacious HQ on day 3 without the pass - and you can't get the pass before 1800, so you can't get the pass and visit the HQ in the same day

When you go to HQ on day 4 to steal the camera, you can't go back in to get arrested; you have to steal on day 3 to get arrested on day 4.

It's not that cheating is necessary but that you need to decide on what path to follow, and some paths are going to be exclusionary with a game that has this much time sensitive content.

This game is really fun to play, cant wait for the updates
