HTML College Daze [v0.510b] [G28]

[Gorse]

As of now, after the first playthrough of v0.064b, this one's certainly one of the best story-related html-games around here.

Many branches with multiple choices enrich the well-written plot and the replay-ability. So far I liked that content and the freedom of choice within it.


While the story itself is quite intoxicating, unfortunately the visual content (still images & gifs) is often not that appealing...

The pics (photo images)

- often are too small and only average quality
- sometimes don't fit into the given context (situations, places...)
- don't follow the narration in some scenes
- could be more than only one or two per scene, particularly in the hotter scenes

The gifs (animated images)

- are almost all of low quality
- are bangin' ugly (even in scenes with beautiful actresses)
- are even smaller than the pics

As there are ways to improve the visual content without enlarging the file size of the game too much.
Maybe a different arrangement of the content in the scenes on the screen would help, too.

So I can only encourage you to give it a thought, G28.

You are more than welcome to create your own image packs. All of the files are there in the images folder.

Hey Mr. G28, when do you think you'll release the next update I'm super excited for it!

The way Monday works is the evening portion has a bunch of events that you can do three of in any order, so I'm trying to get as many of those done as I can before the next public release so I'm not spammed by "What does red link mean????".

Just make all the red links go to your Patreon page.

Just make all the red links go to your Patreon page.

Actually, that has potential.

 

[Prinplup]

Modded for timetravel for the first 8 days and I've also patched some events to make them repeatable. No timetravel across days though, although I hope to eventually extend the character pages with helper cheats to adjust variables directly.
Hopefully I'll be able to finish the rest by this week.
Saves are transferrable between this and the original game.

G28Here hey I have been meaning to mod your game to add a few loops to redo things but every time I try to import the html in twine nothing happens, am I doing something wrong? or is not supposed to be opened in twine?

It's a big file so your comp might not be able to handle it.

It could also be that it is just taking a while. If your computer can actually open it, it does take it a while to load in.

So it ends up being a waiting game.

the pictures can be replace by you. find better version you want if you don't like the ones in the game. just replace the picture with the exact same name.

 

[Nomine sine]

Thanks for the game.

 

[Prinplup]

Last day added. There was some weirdness with the clues when finding Zahra, but it might have been due to me timetravelling rather than a bug. There are also some unreachable scenes to impregnate Kayla, which will probably be added next version.

Thanks for the advice - G28 mentioned that in other words as well.
Guess I only can't change the sizes of the images implemented in the game, or can I ?

Whether possible or not, my comment was only a suggestion to maybe improve the overall quality (and in some scenes the quantity) of images. Not necessarily their content, cause that's much more personal preference than "objective" criteria.

But nevertheless I like the main plot and appreciate that there is some depth in it (which most of these "games" lack)

 

[Deleted member 2282063]

The writing in this is honestly surprisingly good and I really like the characters. The core-mechanic is also really simple but satisfying and makes it easy to play the way you want and avoid content you don't wanna see. This is honestly just really great and checks all my boxes and I can't wait for it to be finished.

 

[themagiman]

Needs an update.

 

[The Grifter]

Needs an update.

Public release comes usually when a game-day is finished. As of now, multiple branches of decissions/dialogue are still under developement - for example, only two of the nightime events are done as of now, the one for Emma and the one for the Monica/Rio duo.
So, better don't ask for a leak of the current version, I'm completely with G28 here in that we do NOT need another five pages of posts asking why there's an error after red text links... the idea of linking those to the Patreon page instead really has its charm.

Or "what is a red link" question.

I worked a way to redirect broken links as Genius_Vorcha suggested but not to patreon. That would lead to losing unsaved game progress.

The next public release will be November 10th (U.S. time). That should give me enough time to cover everything I want to cover for Monday, but even if there are some missing scenes, I'll still release it then.
