VN Ren'Py Abandoned Codename Ultraviolet [CH2 0.15] [EchoGames Studio]

[Fazed]

Only one girl will be lesbian, but as the previous subject comes in, the player can choose to interfere with this girl's personal taste and make her heterosexual again or keep her lesbian.

In other words, if you decide to keep her lesbian, there will be no sexual content with her, only the main participation in the story.

If you decide to convince her, you will have sexual content with her.



A lot of people consider it, so it gets confusing when it comes time to interpret it.

If we consider what a lot of people think that it will have Sequestration, compulsion, heavier issues, then no, there will be no NTR.

Wait so you are saying if I actually like lesbian content, I wont be seeing it either way....well that sucks.

About the NTR(netorare)...I'm not talking about interpretations. That is how the tag is used, it is from the Main character's perspective in any media. Anything else is bound to lead to confusion and it would literally be on every game if that were the case as some side character is always losing the MC to someone else...
Sorry if I sound aggressive, I really don't mean to be but it's really something you should get right for the visibility of your game. You would be mislabeling your game.

Sorry, what I meant to mention is that the sexual content is directly with the protagonist, the character will have sex with other girls. After all the game keeps having a harem.

It turns out that a lot of people consider Cheating to be NTR, so I end up putting everything together into one thing.

yea I understand.
But like I said when it comes to CHEATING and if it's the MC doing it,
it falls under the CHEATING tag and it's not NTR whatsoever.
now, if it's a love interest that's cheating on the MC or a girlfriend, then that in fact is netorare.

Netori is when the MC is taking other dudes girls from them, and cucking that guy in the process.

since this site have no netori tag, that gets labeled under cheating as well...

Well, I hope I understood most of the things, when I get access to the thread I will organize the contents and tags.

If you want to know more about the project, go to discord, where I can talk more openly.

I am enjoying this game, but the script needs a lot of work. No native English speaker speaks like how your characters speak, dude.

...Meaning that, by player choice, if the MC decides to pursue this character she can be bisexual and there will be lesbian content with the MC also involved?

I am not a native English speaker unfortunately, all I have is a little help from programs and some colleagues.

In short yes and no. The player will also have choices about this, like who to have sex with, whether it's just one girl or several girls. My idea for the future is to move away from the "linear" style and play the project "Open World" or "Free Roam" style. Linear style gives me a chance to keep the script focused which is my goal initially.

I would recommend using deepl + grammarly combo to get proper translations, if your own language skills are not enough. Maybe even paid versions, should you wish so. They help tremendously, when I'm too lazy to translate articles and other readables myself. Also - English lessons! Cannot overstate how much that helps. Nobody noticed that I'm not a native speaker, for example

this is exactly the combination I use. I intend to further study English to understand 100%.

Eh, I thought about trying this but I see red flags already.

You have three other games that never went past the first release. Glowing Nights came out in January and is still sitting at v0.01. Alternative Universe that came out last year in June, that never went past the demo. And My Lover Is An Android that got abandoned after the first release in April last year.

This developer has a consistent habit of abandoning games after the initial release. This is their fourth game now. None have made it past the first release. Think about that.

Sorry but those are rather large red flags. I'd rather not get invested into a game with the reputation this dev has with games, as it is more likely going to be abandoned just like the others.

I have already made it clear that this project is a reboot of Glowing Nights, so no, I did not abandon the project, I just decided to start over due to the many negative reviews about the story.

And unfortunately I always aimed my projects with the intention of having financial return as supports, unfortunately I can not stand idle wasting time doing something I just like, I need money to keep me steady with a roof over my head and food on the table, then seeing that the previous projects did not give financial return, I did not stand still and decided to bet on other ideas.

I hate to have to cancel my projects, but I can't work on top of them just because I want to. I need to generate income.

 

[itznik]

You cannot expect financial support on your first game. Start with something cool and funny plot with good renders. Then make heavy projects. Don't outsmart yourself. People actually pay for fast updates after getting popular. So work yourself and do some work. They'll support you automatically.

So it's not about the joy of making these stories, it's all about getting that cash. Got it.

You're doing it wrong then. VNs are not easy money. You don't create a version one, and expect to be rolling in dough within the first few days. It's a buildup process. You need to get rep and actually make something worth playing, and keep working on it without abandoning it, before you'll start seeing any cash roll in.

And then you went and abandoned your old patreon and started a new one when you weren't getting insta-cash. It just doesn't work like that. Sorry to disappoint and rain on your parade here, but you need to actually finish something and release a good product to start getting any form of income from this.

You'd be better off getting a job and doing VNs on the side. You shouldn't be doing this just to get money, you should be doing this because you enjoy it. The money is a bonus for doing a good job. Then after you built a good rep and made a good game, and patreons are starting to roll in, then make it an actual living. Cause right now, your rep is not good. You have a rep of abandoning games after one release and now you say you're only doing it for money.

No one wants to support a developer whose heart is not in their games, and instead, only in their wallets.

It's a tough reality, but it is reality nonetheless. Regardless of how valid your motivations are. Ofc everyone needs to eat, but being creative and chasing money tend not to mix that well. I will continue to check out your game in the future and I do hope you find a balance that works.

First of all, I don't wait a few days, my previous projects have been up for months.

Second, I had to create a new Patreon because I lost access to the first account, since I had set up Google Authenticator to have access and without it you can't easily login.

Third, if I'm doing it wrong then it's my problem, my reality, where I live, is totally different from your reality where you live, if you knew how it is to live in my country, you would know why I always focus on the financial return, working here is the same as being a slave, a lot of unnecessary effort and stress for little return, the minimum wage here is barely enough to survive, and you have to stay 14 - 16 hours a day out of your comfort to earn a pittance at the end of the month, is not work place, it's slavery. That's why I try and try to earn money with my projects, that's why I move on to another one when the one at the present moment after a good time, months, doesn't generate financial return.

 

[Deleted member 588212]

If you come again with the subject that I am doing wrong because I am aiming at this or aiming at that, I will ask you to remove my project from here, I come here asking you to publish it just to generate a little engagement and to clear doubts about the project and not to read about what I am doing wrong and the shit I already did.

 

[xmilteach]

thx

 

[jdw6]

Am I the only one who was expecting at least a character that looked like Milla, some reference to vampires, or hæmophages, and some reference to that movie?

meh, dev's attitude is enough to warrant ignoring this, regardless of what the content is or isn't.

Alright no need to get into details. Last thing we want is fuss about whos life is more shit. Do what you have to do. Criticisms will come no matter what you do. Take what is relevant and ignore the rest. Myself included if whatever I said/say offends you.

Others have already mentioned the English and flow of the dialogue in general so I wont go over that again. But besides that, it would be appreciated by many if you gave us the option to name the main character.

Other than that, the music is good and I always appreciate when sound effects are added. Not everyone does but for a few, audio is just as important an element as the images or text. So nice job there.
