VN Ren'Py DeadMoon Survival [v0.9.1] [Hot Tomato]

[Son_of_ogre]

It makes perfect sense for this game to receive so much hate, lol. People have preferences and tastes, always have and always will. Dev made a lot of dumb decisions and fucked up his own game; what did you expect players to do? It's a thread about game discussion and not a thread of undoubted worshipping, and people do just that - write their thoughts and opinions about the game/update. Did you see at least once that someone attacked a dude who just sincerely wrote that he liked the game/update? Of course not. But if someone tries to voice his critique or displeasure with the game or dev decisions, then hell will break loose, and shit with hate and insults will pour like a river. You are just crying, then just leave the thread, look for other games, and stop bitching here, etc.

I myself dropped this edgy soyboy circus full of braindead anime logic a long time ago. But when I saw the commotion in the thread, I checked the last update on fast skip, and oh boy, it was cringe and pathetic. 10 minutes of lame fights with oversaturated bloodshed and childish psycho mode are all over the place, and after that, just like that, an unskippable/unpreventable lesbian scene while the MC, lonely, cooks his own brains in psycho juice, kek. I remember this game in the first place gave players choices to tailor the story as they want (as any normal choice-based game should), but then just like that, no content with the MC in the whole update and lesbian content now is kanon.

I saw that game disappointed even NTR lovers; well then, it's an obvious full fiasco of the developer's bad choices if neither vanilla nor NTR squads are left happy. I'm not sure that I would have liked or been impressed by this story even when I was 15.

I agree game is getting a bit of hate but aren't you paying a little bit too much attention to this game, don't tell me you secretly like this game!? T-that's means you're being Tsundere?!

There needs to be a disclaimer that this is the unofficial 0.9 update to properly set expectations.

Co writer was making a salad out of nothing to please the fanbase. And y’all are complaining like crazy.

Co Dev had this working against him:

Making his own game with chunky monthly updates.

Did not get the story beats from Tomato and had to improvise which includes the branching for OPTIONAL LESBIAN and NTR FLASHBACKS

Atleast 3 of tomatoe pseudo animations missing.

100-300 still renders missing, a lot of those transition renders to move story and dialogue along.

An entire intimate scene with mom and MC with those animations and renders.

Dev ghosted, only Tomato can correct that since he holds all the cards.

With Honey Select 2 Studio you don't need rendering, it's not DAZ3D. In the Studio you just arrange the characters, place the stage, put the lighting if necessary and take the capture and that's it, nothing else is needed, you don't have to wait any rendering time as you do with other 3D design engines.

10 months for this shitty update!!!!
The update is, 200 images of a fighting game and a little more of nothing.
Game deleted.

We got a dude who even can't read here lmao

 

[RG80100]

damn, we may never get a continuation after playing this last “mini release”. It's heartbreaking, and your text at the end was very poignant Ruykiru. great last fight scenes, great M/D scenes. We have a lot a revelation and it's surely the end. As VN fans, we're all more or less used to never-finished games, but in some cases it's hard to take.

 

[strenif]

Meh, I find it's too overdone and too many novels use it. I doubt you'd be able to replicate the gore and overall dark mood from DeadMoon there. But Daz or Blender are for sure the most realistic software to create nudes (excluding photorealistic AI models trained specifically for it, but that's another topic).

Haha. Check out Desert Stalker some time.
Dark and far more gory.

 

[FPA]

Great game, loved the renders, well written and emotional, a plethora of bodily fluids and hot taboo scenes all in a zombie apocalypse. Hentai and dystopian futures, my favourite combinations. I'm very sad the developer has disappeared, hope he´s OK and has just taken a hiatus on this project, always looked forward to the updates. Thanks to the co-developer for filling us in and releasing this half-update, it's definitely better than just an abandoned tag without explanation. Loving your other project! Hope to see more of DMS in the future.

 

[snapturtle34]

Yeah, people often forget that we developers are real living beings too, but that's mostly the curse of an anonymous internet.

Thank you so much for the update, Its sad to hear that the OG dev isnt here. Ill save this game and hope he will return one day. If you should cont the game? Honestly its up to yourself buddy. I would say, only do it if you feel for it. Would i love to see it done, sure. But its about you wanna do it. Lets hope Hot Tomato is ok and well.

 

[Immoral Player]

We need more zombie/apocalyptic or both games, and i hope to one day see a complete game on the level of deadmoon and kindread.

Now & Then is the game you seek.... I would suggest giving it a look.

 

[SergejGamer73]

I love the game and the story and scene next update can create a little more big text.

 

[Doloto2022]

wow

 

[dolfe67]

Now & Then is the game you seek.... I would suggest giving it a look.

It's the next best thing but inferior in eroticism imo

 

[kuine]

Ruykiru : Thank you for all your efforts. I really appreciate it! Even if it's not complete, it's one of my favorite games. I also really liked the (incomplete) update. I also think it's great how you deal with the community and keep in touch. I also think your own game is great. I can only say one thing: chapeau!

 

[laurita100493]

Hahaha, another average developer destroying his own work.
Game removed, not even worth a free download.

What do you mean destroying his own work? The actual dev didn't release this, he vanished ages ago..

 

[Kame-Sennin]

I get you point, but i think the decision of adding this type of scene to the game makes a lot of sense here, sis is basically doing the same as the MC is doing, if the game continues, there will be a point in wich the three of them will engage in something together, and it will feel more 'natural' in a certain way, because of the lesbians scenes. Most of the games you have this type of 'corruption' is just the male MC pushing people around and forcing the encounters, it will (or would) feel more natural here i think.

But...Its a porn game, i dont go that deep into storytelling or see myself as the MC, i just wanna see some hot shit and thats it.

How does makes a lot sense? for me it's disgusting, some don't have this kind of tea, for example, imagine you , or your brother 69ing with your dad? or you see your mom & sis doing it in real life? won't you feel disgust? the point here is it is not everyone's cup of tea and this is a game, so there should be atleast some option to avoid it, not only that but it's not only lesbian but it's also feels like ntr to me.

 

[Ero - Sennin]

I checked Sinful summer and now I understand why the lesbian thing ruin this game, it is true that this isn't made by dev, now I understand also why the story of this game was influenced because the dev of that Sinful summer was a co-writer, well if I am playing Sinful summer and as a female protagonist, I don't mind the G to G action, but in this game hell no, I am playing as a male !

 

[V&M]

He was making $600 at one point.
Damn. He sub count fell through the floor.

Such a shame. I supported him for a long time and was always shocked he wasn't doing better.
It's such a great game with solid writing, renders, and animations.
I wonder why it never hooked an audience.

Sorry to go against your opinion, but I believe it's the opposite of what you mentioned, and I think it's exactly because of the lack of these features you mentioned that it failed to hook the public.
I don't want to be a troll or a stalker, but this game lacked a lot of eroticism.
My opinion (and I believe that of the many people who also didn't support the game).
We live busy lives, with almost no time for fun and passing the time. And there are countless games here and elsewhere. Games that border on photorealism, renderings bordering on realism, perfect animations that are beautiful to watch.
I was a big fan of Honey Select and Koikatsu, the latter I don't even waste my time watching anymore. I still follow some of Honey Select, since some developers managed to take this engine to the limit.
But back to the game in question. Many people aren't interested in apocalyptic worlds. Very simplistic renderings and animations. But what really discouraged me was the walls of text, cliché texts, boring MC, a lot of time between one sex scene and another, and most of them without animation.
They mentioned another apocalyptic world game (Now & Then), in my opinion, superior to this one in every aspect, not to mention the absurd amount of animations.
Man, developers need to stop making female masturbation scenes, all games abuse it. I even think it's cool, but this market is already saturated with it. I personally skip all these scenes, it's become extremely boring and repetitive.
When I say that this game is just another cliché game, it's not so much the developer's fault, but incest games have already saturated the market, and I was once a big fan of this genre, but always seeing the same scenes, the same dialogues (changing a sentence here and there), but deep down it's all the same thing. There comes a time when it gets boring, it loses its charm. I used to be a big hater of NTR games, I even got banned from here because of several fights. And today, the theme I'm looking for is precisely NTR (although the vast majority of games on this theme are crap). It was something I found to keep playing, since incest games have become a ctrl-c - ctrl-v of each other.

Sorry for using the reply to your comment to express myself here.

 

[Ruykiru]

not only that but it's not only lesbian but it's also feels like ntr to me.

Ah shit, here we go again... I should stop reading these shitty takes for my own sanity.

You seem like a person who literally sees Juliet act like this in game (if you even played it):
"I wish my brother was with us but the situation is complicated because we are both having a secret relationship with Mom. There's nothing more I would like than for us all to engage in naughty incest as a family because I love my relatives so fucking much and they are the only thing I have left in this shitty world, the only thing that let me cope with everything instead of throwing myself off the first building I see."

And yet, after all that, proceed to still cry about lesbian 'NTR' or whatever that acronym means anymore in this thread. Inspiring. I wish I was that smart and had such a great ability to understand characters and their motivations in complex stories.

"Erotica is simply high-class pornography; better produced, better conceived, better executed, better packaged, designed for a better class of consumer."

I think you might not agree with that statement though, and are just seeking a quick fap. Maybe you should be looking at normal porn instead and that's why you can't appreciate a slow burn story. Or maybe the brainrot from the usual low effort incest AVN genre got to you... I know the feel, it happens to us all.
