Ren'Py Brothel King [v0.3] [Goldo]

[Ixiah]

Once i get the first Pimp Licence and unlock the 2 next districts, i lose so much Gold, do i need to rebuild my reputation ?
Should i only upgrade once i have like 5000G so i can weather the lack of rep until it builds itself up ?

 

[Jman9]

Depends on your difficulty and setup, I guess. But you do need to re-acquire your reputation, so a buffer is advisable.

There are a few places to get new girls or girl packs. First, on F95, there is a thread here that you can check out. Second, there is a thread on the site hentaihighschool.com, which was the main forum for Brothel King, but the site is currently down, and we're not sure if and when it is coming back up. Lastly, a Google Doc was maintained by a small number of users on hentaihighschool.com, and while you can't visit the site, I have the link

Ok since we're here, I have a question on a part of game design. It is about a future feature to make the farm more interesting. It is a bit spoiler-y...

I'm not big on save scumming myself (in fact, I tend to do ironman style in every game...thanks for teaching me that habit, Resident Evil!) but I'd say that the daily/weekly random seed method would be best. It basically serves to keep the system intact while also making savescumming a pain in the ass, so that if someone wants to do more than just abort a truly doomed decision, they have to jump through hoops.

 

[Kite80]

Personally I wouldn't care about save scumming for those new mechanics, everyone knows that cheating is not a good idea if you want to enjoy a game

If the backlash is too harsh, savescummers/cheaters will find a way to get around it. Or they will complain that you've hindered them from doing so.

I do agree with that. The time investment should be carefully considered.
I reckon a minority of players play the evil playstyle and an even smaller minority also use the farm. And speaking for myself, that's not primarily because of gameplay reasons (ofcourse it is a factor) but because it thematically doesn't appeal to me.

On another note, I would be a big proponent of having a stable branch + a less advertised test branch again once we are no longer refugees on F95zone.

Actually an extra closing tag {/color} in BKfunctions.rpy line 1105, change

+ __("\n{/color}Your girl is safe, and you pocket the content of his wallet while your henchmen throw the poor sucker out in a dark alley: %s gold.{/color}") % str(cust.ent_budget))

to

[Jman9]

Doubtful. As Kite80 said, why upload an old version. So I doubt 'Traplan' is Goldo. Unless he's trying to pull a fast one on us.

I suppose that ought to get reported, for the virus report if nothing else.

 

[Leortha]

Doubtful. As Kite80 said, why upload an old version.

The one reason I can think of would be to revive an old mod. Like yours. If someone wanted to distribute your Bonanza mod they would need an old version as the base. Definitely sounds like that is not what is happening here, but that would theoretically be one legit reason for distributing an old base version.

 

[Jman9]

Well, okay, but if they have a link to Bonanza, they probably have Goldo's 0.15b link as well. This is still alive, I presume?

Not to mention that hosting anything without the author even knowing about is is a dick move. And itch.io is big enough now that letting such things slide is not quite the same as having random ad pirates host your stuff.

I don't think it's really worth all the effort to try and prevent save-scumming honestly, at least not by finding ways of punishing the behavior. Instead, why not put in additional gameplay methods for a player to achieve the desired result that they're save-scumming to get in the first place and maybe a small reward for doing so?
