Hey Folks,

Part of the change I am making is the start of the game e.g "Intro" is now much shorter. This is done to have a better lead-up to both Ms Anna and Liza story-lines. The Intro took place over 3 days and it had the Liza drunk / sleeping pill scenes and then the getting Ms Anna drunk and taking advanage of her. The "intro" is more of get to know the family type deal but with Bobby starting to do prevert type things. So the "intro" is now only 1 day like most other VN.

I think the reason Rainces had the game with a long "intro" is that either he did not know how to create a sandbox or was on the fence about having a sandbox game.

With the shorter "intro" I can now start of all 4 charaters story-lines a lot early. Also doing this allowed me to dump some of the older code.

This was something I planned to do for a long time but kept putting it off but in the back of my mind it was alway digging at me.

**Now, you are going to say where the new content I don't give a shit about this. **

> Well in order to added new content faster I will need to have a easy way to add new script / renders. At the start it was not a issue, but as the story-lines and smaller events got added it added more "what-if" to the scripts and this lead to soft-locks or events not triggering correctly which in turn take more time.

So the plan is to post more details on Friday and release the "NEW" version this Sunday and if there are no issues I can they add back in all the new content on the next release.

Since Zip has NEVER once delivered on a promised deadline taking wagers now that it DOES NOT get released Sunday... any takers?

He will send some "test" late Friday, more likely Saturday, but the rest will not come over the weekend as he promised, a few days later or a week at best. The guy is very reluctant to work on his days off, most likely he will disappear then...

But, what is the "NEW" version about? It is just about the changes in the intro? Or is just the same but with that new version of Renpy?
Who knows .zip starts a world tour, if we follow all the route Zip does we will all end up vomiting.
the problem is that he thinks he has a clear idea of the project to follow, and what to do but we all know that we are in the open sea on the shell of a nut.
anyway the bridge always fall in down.

Half a year ago he wrote that he would throw out all the statistics. Now he writes about sandbox. He does all this just to encourage people to the project and to donate because there is no plan in sight. Whatever is released will be a fraction of the announced content.

It doesn't matter at all what he says, it doesn't matter at all, every time he says something, but does something completely different. All he does is loot donations and subscriptions, and from time to time warms up interest with at least some news and content, as a rule, some nonsense, just to stay afloat.

You know what the saddest part of his behavior is? IF he'd stop with the constant lies and actually put some real effort into delivering content in a timely fashion he'd make at least ten times the amount of money he currently gets from developing this game. Instead he'd rather scam a fraction of what he could be making out of the few suckers who don't see right through his bullshit.

There are games that provide much more content and on a regular basis . For the same amount of time Zip could do the same thing but he doesn't have time for it and does it in his free time. I don't excuse him but it's simply the truth. Then at the last minute he does everything in a hurry and the rush of work causes all these delays. Give an example. (Grandma's House) this game appeared relatively recently and it already has 5 parts . But there is another unknown: how many people are creating this game, and this causes frustration caused by waiting, seeing that others deliver on time when here you wait many months.

The only thing left to do is to accept it or abandon it.

At the moment it looks like this :LOL:

A lot of cool games have closed and a lot of crappy crap is released regularly :unsure:

Bobby's MoD 0.15.50 upgrade

Hey Folks,

This Sunday the 16th March I will be releasing the "new" version. This will be the lite version as I will be cleaning up the game content and adding it back into the main game.

There was a number of reasons for the restart and this was due to the code-base needing an overhaul, as a lot of junk built up over the past 2 years. But the main reason was the game had a lot of empty spots between story-lines and the placing was off for most of the stories.

So the first release will be small as to test the new code and also give me time to clean-up the scenes by either moving them to different points in the story or extending or adding new scenes to improve the flow.

As all the scripts are done and I am only cleaning them up and also I have all the images in 1080p so this will not take up much time.

What is changing:
  • The start of the game has changed to the "First Day" (This was first three days)
  • Game is now in 1080p
  • New version of Renpy 8.3.6
  • Improved the lighting and scenes layouts
  • Images converted to webp reduce the size of the game
  • New game opening with new and extending scenes
  • Liza after the party is now part of the sandbox and has a longer lead-up
  • Ms Anna getting drunk in the sitting room has been moved to the sandbox and there are new scenes leading up to this event.
  • Jenny story-line starts early

Release schedule:
  • 16th March - Based game release
  • 23rd March - First sets of scenes for Ms Anna,Liza, Lucy and Jenny
  • 30th March - Second sets of scenes for Ms Anna,Liza, Lucy and Jenny
  • 6th April - Fix or replace code and scenes based on feedback etc.


Anyhoo, the A.I. overlord is telling me to get back to work or it will melt my brain.

I love that it took him almost a week to write this! He probably needed that long to work on a fake schedule... So basically, around April 1st you'll get something that's what it was before with some changes...

Outra vez a treta das promessas?

# What have I told you, little man? No more promises, no more lies. I think you've spent more time figuring out what to write in this post than working in the game. A lite version? You're the lite version. Just deliver the "proper" goods when ready.
