VN Ren'Py Down The Road [Ch.1 v0.30] [Banana H. Games]

[shitcrap1]

Hey everyone!

I’ve noticed some concerns regarding the development of the game, and I want to take a moment to clarify a few things.

• How many episodes are there per chapter?
Each chapter will include 4 episodes, each told from the perspective of a different main character:

• Hayden / Jack (depending on what you choose to call him)
• Vic
• Scott
• Sarah

All the stories will be interconnected, and we might see each character from the perspective of the others.

• Will the story be kinetic or branching?
I want to be upfront about this. The first chapter will be mostly kinetic, as its purpose is to introduce the four main characters
Branching is something I want to handle with care. If not done right, it can get out of hand, slow down updates, and hurt the pacing.
But I also want players to feel immersed in the story, and I believe branching is essential for that. So while I continue writing Chapter One, I’m also working on how to make branching fit my vision.

That being said, this game is not a dating sim.
Some relationships might not have a happy ending or may not go the way you expect. And not everything will be a choice.
I'll do my best to give players a fair experience, but if you're looking for a dating game or something where you're fully in control of the characters, this probably isn’t the VN for you.

• Will there be [insert tag here]?
Okay guys, being honest. If you're looking for a kink-focused game, this isn’t it
I'm constantly writing and rewriting stuff, so I really can’t make promises about what kind of sexual content the game will include
My goal is to create quality spicy content, and that’s about all I can guarantee because if I try to please everyone, I’ll just end up pissing everyone off.

I’ve already mentioned what kind of content won’t be in the game (you can find it pinned on my Patreon), but I’ll put it here again.

⚠ Disclaimer
This game will not feature any illegal content. All characters who engage in sexual acts are over 18
Content such as rape, incest (explicit or fetishized), and lolicon will never be included.

While themes like NTR, sharing, or cuckoldry will not be featured, some elements may be incorporated for storytelling purposes.

It sounds like this one is going to be very linier. It also needs the multiple protagonist tag if you are going to be switching from character to character. And from the sound of it it also needs the female protagonist tag. It a slippery slop having a vn with both sexes as a protagonist, a lot of people are likely to just pass on this one.

Not gonna lie. Pretty hard for me to immerse myself in a visual novel with more than 1 protagonist. And you want 4 protagonists? Damn.

Yarp. I never play as fem-protags. Doubly so if it's lesbian relationships, which I don't give a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut about. When it comes to lez scenes IDGAF.

Loved Haydens character, personality and his story in general on the other hand I couldn't stand Vic she comes off as sort of a bitch in not the funny kind hopefully the other MC don't feel like they have a stick up their ass like Vic does.

Overall the game has potential but needs lots of work some renders are a bit grainy, lacks music and sound effects in lots of parts of the game and finally the game needs some choices I know that the first episode is mostly kinetic but I hope that it does get some branching at least.

Although not going to lie I wouldn't mind if the whole game was about Hayden as the sole MC I am in general not a fan of multiple MCs.

do you actually play as a lesbian character as in no sexual and romantic situations with a man or do you play as a bi character? will the lesbian character be a romance option and have any sexual interactions with any of the male mcs or with the male mcs and male npcs? with you also saying that some relationships might not have a happy ending, might not go the way the player expects and not everything will be a choice that makes me think it's talking about the lesbian character or will be including them in that. i could be completely wrong about that. also is there a chance you can choose to play as the character you want or will you just be switching between characters?

I was wondering if there will be a Linux release?
