VN Ren'Py Blurring the Walls [v0.5.33v2] [Torimiata]

[Griev]

Is this where I sign up for the 'disappeared for months just to drop a preview' club? Cuz I have a problem with that guy too

Jokes aside - it's technically a 'preview' but we're talking 40k words and several new scenes - not exactly a small preview.

What changed? Everything. New art pipeline (took forever to get right but worth it), completely rewritten dialogue, new scenes, full 1080p... Started as a remaster, turned into a proper remake.

Story wise, it will of course feel entirely familiar for now so if you want to wait until the whole Act 1 catches up, totally get it but it's about time stuff is actually happening.

Some decisions I’ve made might not resonate with everyone, but the game is in a place that feels much more polished and cohesive to me.

Updates will be dropping every two weeks for a while too as this is a staged release.

At one point you mentioned stalling payments until you'd completed the remake, right? I could be misremembering the actual wording though, as I'm without coffee and it's still early... but I could have sworn that was the case. I ask because you've now decided to release a "preview" with the first piece of the remake with subsequent pieces made exclusive to paid patrons. Why the change?

If I'm misremembering just roast me, or ignore my early morning ramblings...

The usual trolls are out in full force, I see no point believing anything they say.

Why does this "remaster," which took longer to develop than the older game up to version 5, include less content than the original game's initial v1 release? What do you mean "sketching"?

Your own Quote:


Not really hater, but weird seeing such statements and results (lacklucter remaster with low content that took 8 months).
Maybe try optimizing your settings, because this didn't took me 8 hours. 10 minutes all it took.



And not hater for stating terrible visual glitching. Screen flicker is crazy. You're drawing on renpy too much and it glitches the screen.

We are not Devs like you, but that does not qualify us as game experts. Thanks

You don't need to be a dev to say total of 30-50 AI CG in 8 months is BS. This remaster can be done in 2 months.
There’s not much technical improvement over the original game. If you create 5 CGs a day (from what I seem, 30min for each CG is plenty), that’s about two weeks of work. Even if you add Photoshop effects and other touches, it might take a month. Yet, the result is less content. It just doesn’t make sense why it took so long.

Don't worry, it's all the Trolls' fault, hahahahahahahhahaha

 

[luccel]

Trolls are just checking the facts Mr. Dev, you are trying to defend the product, but as someone who has played these games for a long time, if you present me with a MC with a small dick, then the dynamics are clear to understand, when you Dev create the character of an idiot, gurdone, cuckold and small dick Mc, you will excuse me, but there is only one reason, because he becomes an NTR, the NTS I played did not have this dysfunction between the characters' dicks and Mc. You think we are trolls, I think we are long-time players who understand dynamics. We are not Devs like you, but that does not qualify us as game experts. Thanks

this is one of the dumbest things i think ive ever read in an nts thread and holy fuck there are some shit takes in nts threads.

take a fucking lap, you come off as very insecure about yourself and no were in the definition of nts or ntr is dick size ever mentioned im all for hating on a dev for legit things but just cause you think dick size changes nts to ntr some how doesnt mean the game has changed form nts to ntr it just means your a skitzo

 

[Alexia@69]

Man, what a shame. Spotted this on the latest release page after months of it having not been updated and got excited, only to find out it's yet another "remake" that has less content than the initial release more than a year ago. I'm sure this time it'll be different though, right? This dev is not like the other devs, it just seems that way because everything so far points to that. But that's just people being haters, instead of looking at things objectively, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the dev's actions. I'll check again in a year, hopefully the second remake will have actual animated scenes. Seems feasible

 

[Tecton]

Amuses me how the detractors are either below 50 comment accounts or people saying the dumbest things imaginable, proving they have no idea how anything works.

Dick got smaller to emphasize how beta MC is. Usual trope for NTR and main attraction for this genre is to demean MC and make player feel like a cuck. There's difference between cucking and "swinging"/netorase.
It's not normal size. MC got tiny dick compare to Terrace or "crowd" in dream/imagination sequence. Any other male has 2-3 times bigger dick.
Your player/mc dick is tiny compared to any other male in this game. Remaster made it even smaller. This empathize that player/MC is a loser/beta cuck with tiniest dick in this tropical city.

The usual trolls are out in full force, I see no point believing anything they say.

The game's core themes haven't changed - still NTS-focused, same character dynamics, same story DNA. What's changed is the quality of writing, art, and overall polish.

I know some will prefer the original or not understand why it took this long - and that’s okay. For those excited about this direction, the next update drops in two weeks! For anyone else, there are plenty of other great games to enjoy.

I enjoyed this part of the remake. The increase in quality of both the writing and art is really noticeable (I really loved how much focus was given to Ayumi's ass ngl). Of course it it really disappointing that only a part of it is released after all this time. But I am hopeful that this time you will follow the set schedule and release a part of the remake every 2 weeks. Otherwise, this return will feel really hollow.

P.S. Ignore the trolls, Torimiata. They are out for blood since the update has just come out. Alyss has been really lonely without you.

but you go for a walk, I don't have to read the forums, I've played them, doing is different from saying dear friend, it's the point about the fucking differences they are an obvious reference to NTR, the NTS are oriented towards the game of sharing the couple, to joint fun, to the same expected interest, this is NTS, so, try to be more informed about what NTR and NTS mean, so maybe you won't be the one to play the fool.

You're aware not every guy has a massive dick, right? You've watched too much porn. You come across as completely oblivious. You are the porn game version of the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

Wrong. cuckolding and netorase are the same genre. Western turists are the ones bringing stag&vixen/polyamory/swinging etc elements and polluting the nts genre.

try learning the meaning of nts and ntr first ur just skitzo posting about ur feelings not what the actual definitions mean

Decision to make player with smallest dick in town still remains. Not just ~~smallest, but TINY. 2-3 times smaller

Netorase can be a lot of things. Doesn't mean it explicitly is about MC with smallest dick to make him feel beta.
And no. Cucking and Netorase can be two different things. Even your favorite japanese cuck studio atelier something that makes laziest/crappiest NTR games has a couple of netorase titles that does not involve cucking. (~~tourist)
I don't care whatever dev wants to take this game into. It can go all way into cucking/beta mc/ntr. All I'm stating facts. MC dick got even smaller in this remaster. And MC with tiny thumb size dick screams pathetic/beta while game empathizing other males with 2-3 bigger dicks.
Whatever you like playing with tiny dick MC or not, I don't care. I just stated simple fact.
Original game MC had smaller dick compared to other males. In this remaster it got even smaller - same like in NTR games where player is always a loser with pathetic small penis and your girlfriend goes to other males to feel more fun because they have bigger dicks.
Jeezz... you got a dialogue choice where MC and female protagonist talks how big Terrace dick is. She getting fun with other males who has much bigger dicks and makes her feel better will be a big thing in this game. Facts. There's a reason why main character is portrayed with visibly tiny dick.

I couldn't care less about MC's dick size lol. He could as gigantic and it wouldn't change anything for me. What I enjoy in cuckolding/netorase are the sub/maso elements and that is why I despise dilluting the genre into this polyamory chad mc bullshit.

What you enjoy doesn’t override the preferences of others. Game didn't start as cucking/loser MC/ game and those players feel betrayed with the direction it takes now.

 

[Fumikaposterblob]

I'm guessing this doesn't have any new content, just a remake of the whole thing?

 

[Joshy92]

How is the MC a loser? he has a loving girlfriend, and they are exploring their desires together. And their relationship is strong what more could someone want?

 

[Deleted member 1880043]

Not whole thing. It is a remaster of v1 (first release) and even with that it has less content (and no animations).
Full remake probably will take another year or so.

Because MC in this game is like

 

[Firaxius]

A very good remake, Torimiata, god i still love that girl, she can be so shy cute and at same time a little devil in the box. Although i'm not sure what the scale will do, but for some reason i feel the dominant mc and submisive girl is going to be him making her sleep other guys, while the tease queen side is going to be more her teasing you but at same time be more free spirited and her seeing other guys on her own free will. I might be wrong, as i only don't the dominant side, but the ending sounded like he has plans for her. Either way the story is well told and I was so hooked into it and getting myself frisky, when someone stupid disturbed me and even made angry to spoil my moment lol. Anyway keep up the good work, you sure know how to make someone hot and bothered. Very well made vn.
