VN Ren'Py Cosy Cafe [v0.13.1 EA] [Cosy Creator]

[bASKOU]

I think there are quite a few of us that want to see how this game ends already. The apartment over the cafe is only so big, and Cosy's going to give the MC 11 girls? I mean, Lucy, Vicky and the Kitten already sleep in the same bed as he does, and I'm expecting Sarah to do so too, probably on Lucy's side.

There are what, 3 or 4 other rooms (minus Vicky's) that are unfurnished. I guess each room could hold two girls (depending on their relationship with each other) and I know from the looks of the planned content, there is going to be lesbians at some point, but that's always going to include the MC (the thought of Lucy and Sarah or the Kitten and Misaki or the Kitten and Akari & Misaki?) yum yum sign me up) but to get back on track, is every girlfriend he gets going to move in with him?

If I was Lucy, I'd be a little upset to be honest. I wouldn't want my first boyfriend being shared to 10 other girls. It's one of the main reasons why I stopped playing Harem Hotel. I LOVE Lin, but it got to be too much, and replace the hotel with a cafe and that's what this game is basically.

In every VN I've ever played, minus a few "ahem* family-based ones *ahem* I always was loyal and stuck with one girl and was PAINFULLY loyal to them throughout the entire game (Katie, CeCe, Jill, etc.) and kinetic harem games I don't know, very little user input. I would LOVE to be able to pick and choose who I want, but I guess if it makes sense in the end, then great. I know he wants a drama free home and all, but you don't need 11 girls to make and keep your carrot hard.

Just my two cents. I love the game, don't get me wrong and can't wait to see what happens with the next update regarding several of the girls. I guess we'll wait and see.

Nothing say that they'll stay in the appartment, as Cosy said, the story will move on and will not be stuck to when they are young adults (students or just graduated). So we can expect at some point a fastword to few months/years later. And my feeling is that the story is far from being completed. Personnaly don't want to know how it ends yet, as I want to enjoy this VN as long as possible. The MC is still young and there is a lot about his life to discover. End of a good story is always sad, as you want to know more and enjoy for as long as possible.

I think it's partially the anticipation of how it's going to go and how it's going to end. I know this game is a ways off from being done, and time-jumps are expected. I don't want to see more than five six girls living in the apartment with him (have to expect Sarah and Hannah to move in, so that's at five, which in turn, would form the inner circle mentioned earlier) and then you have Catherine MAYBE move in, but there shouldn't be any more than that in my opinion.

That would make a girl from three of the four Founding Families with Elizabeth still a good distance in the future I would assume. That's a lot of FF power under one roof.

A/N: Ever since I got into VNs (during the initial 2020 COVID lockdown,) I've only seen two games to the end that I came into as they were being developed; City of Broken Dreamers and Leap of Faith and I'd like to be around for this one to get done. I'm 6 months away from turning 50, and I hope I have a couple of more years of life (and interest) in VNs before I'm hauled off to some nursing home somewhere because of my paranoid schizophrenia bipolar bullshit, so that's why I'm already thinking about the ending to this game, which is the ONLY VN I play these days, but my collection at one point *Whistles* way too much

Is there a choice on which girls to do naughty stuff with? I do like some of them but definitely not all.

As of right now: No. The Dev stays true to the Kinetic Novel Tag without any exception so far. Future updates: I do not think so but maybe someone who is for example on the Devs Discord knows more.

Today, I stumbled upon someone, who looked kinda familiar. What do you think?

Well, if it all goes smoothly we could and should have the update maybe this time next week, which, for me at least, is going to be a long one as the update can't come soon enough.

 

[ReaperMania]

I can't wait for the next update for this! But, I know how long it takes to make a game, so I respect the creator(s) to try and complete the game as much as possible. At least where the updates are concerned

I am excited too, personally I consider us Cosy Cafe enjoyers to be lucky, Cosy pushes sizable updates out really fast compared to most devs

 

[jvbatman]

This is my most anticipated game of the year.

 

[NotSoTasty]

Are there any other sigs? These look kinda lame. Just a little.

would be helpful if you volunteer to make them

Eh. If I could, I wouldn't have asked. And I found ones that I'll use for now.

You are turning 50 not 80 calm down lmao

One of the main reasons why I stopped playing certain VNs (Being a DIK comes to mind) is because I knew it would be several, if not many, years for it to be completed. Stopped playing it after Ep. 8 dropped, which was what? 2 years ago now? Maybe a tad more? I didn't want to be in my mid to late 50s playing VNs when I knew my mental health was on the decline.

I've been in the psych ward more times than I care to admit or think about, so it is, to me, a reasonable concern. So while physically I will be 50, sometimes my mental health does make me feel older. Just how things are I guess.

Exercise and diet a day keeps the brain fog away~

 

[Parmenion1405]

Yeah, I know what you mean. I stopped playing some games of off the same reason. I do not blame the Devs, cos a lot of them are single Devs and do it in their (spare) free time. But if a game is intended to be this and that long, and there are only 2–5 Updates a Year and combined they make only 5-15% of the game when finished, it's difficult to keep up and be patient with the progress.

Regarding age! I was told it's only a state of mind. But if that is true, my age changes multiple times a day, sometimes inconsistent but some kind of status seems very consistent.

My Day and Age at given Time:

5:00 a.m. : Alarm goes off. I feel like 130–150 years old
5:45 a.m. : After a half liter of coffee, and a shower. Age: 30-35
6:45-9:00 a.m.: Fooling Around with colleagues at work. Age: 20
12:00 p.m: After Lunch and a bunch of Work. Age 65
3:00-4:00 p.m: End of Work, crouching home. Age 95
4:30-6:00 p.m: Surfing/Gaming or just chilling, knowing there is a household that needs attention. Age:5 (just don't want to do it, can I throw myself on the floor and cry?)
8:00 p.m: Household done, Dinner done, shower done: Age 60-80 (Falling asleep while watching news)
10:00 p.m: Wake with back pain, cos sleeping on couch isn't healthy, going to visit my bed... brain gets hyperactive: Age 15-18

And that is only a normal day, it may change depending on the Weekday the circumstances and so on. But generally that seems to be a good (even if incomplete) summary, lols


just my 2 cent (and some more rambling of an actually mid-40s guy)

Platitudes from people who don't suffer from whatever their issues are definitely don't help....

Just because it isn't sympathetic doesn't mean it isn't true. Staying fit and healthy physically can do wonders for mental health.

Just because it isn't sympathetic doesn't mean it isn't true. Staying fit and healthy physically can do wonders for mental health.

And poor mental health can do wonders for sabotaging fitness plans. Assuming the person is able bodied and actually physically capable of a consistent fitness regimen, it doesn't work well as an intervention in the vast majority of cases and is instead valuable as part of a mental health maintenance plan. Almost always someone in the throws of a deep depression isn't going to commit to a long term fitness plan without first successfully treating their depression.
Not to mention it won't do much at all to help if the issue is more along the lines of psychosis or other reality distorting mental health conditions. On a strictly mental health perspective it's really only useful for things like depression, anxiety, addictions and some sleep disorders.

If only I'd exercised my way out of my body disintegrating around me causing me to be medically retired from the career I'd spent my whole life working towards and for... Oh wait exercise is part of what contributed to that disintegration, because I have a genetic issue that makes my joints garbo and worked through the pain too much and too often.

Surely exercise would have also staved off the chronic depression that arose from seeing my entire identity evaporated overnight, with no ability to meaningfully change things.

I know I could exercise the asthma out of my lungs from the burn pit exposure! Or maybe I'll exercise the narcolepsy out of my brain from radiation exposure, that'll fix all my problems.

Idiots like them are so fucking frustrating as a chronic illness sufferer who was healthy and fit until I just fucking wasn't anymore.
