VN Ren'Py Abandoned Ecchi Sensei [Day 22-23 Final] [BlueCat]

[Dukez]

What do you mean? There are still 344 days left of this game. That's about 27 million words(conservatively), surely that means all of the 36(so far) characters will have a decently sized story arc spanning the entirety of said 344 days evenly.

Edit:

To put this in perspective, Stephen King-one of the most prolific writers in existence- has had less than 20 million words published, over the course of his decades-spanning career.

I mean after putting it like that... the script needs to get massively simplified lol. I definitely do not want to read that many words in a single product. Granted it would be over years but like, still..

I honestly wouldn't even be mad if we got any of these things.

Concept art.
Short stories with the characters. (you don't even have to animate those. literally short stories.)

literally anything.

"Sorry, guys, it's coming" once every like 2-3 months absolutely isn't worth paying to a patreon for a year and a half to see nothing.

The man's crowdfunded over 45k to not release anything to the public and it boggles my mind how he hasn't lost his entire platform yet. The only game worse than this at the moment is Yandere Sim.

I've mentioned giving pictures out for months, longer probably I don't remember when I first mentioned it but yeah the short stories would be a neat thing he could've done as well. Heck even just like a scene from the script to let people read without pictures, to fill their imagination for the time being before reading it alongside pictures in the release later would be nice since the script side is already done. Even if it's not translated it's kind of like a 'proof of work' and can be fan translated, which I'm sure someone would share in their discord so it would be 'good enough' since it's still an incomplete thing until released anyway.

Well boys it's almost time for Bluecat's bimonthly Patreon "update". Any guesses on what will be said this time? My money's on him pushing the "oh I can't get a translator" bs that Skummy's been trying to sell as of late.

my money is on HDD failure and a conspicuous lack of backups causing months of work to have to be redone.

His dog had a seizure and he peed on his backups.

He's going to announce that his game was stored in a Ukrainian server that as since been seized by Russian forces as they want his game, hence the invasion.

Always knew Putin was a troll, he'll do anything to prove he was right about it not getting released on time

Hey guys,

sorry to bother you but I had a quick question about the DM patches, apologizes if it has already been answered but seeing the last few pages and the sheer number of them, i figured it might be best to ask directly.

So, I understand that that initially the days were downloadable separatly, and so were the patches. But since then, they have been merged into full on weeks, which lead me to a few questions if you guys could help me:

1. The "week one final" DM patch is over 2gb, I assume it's the full game pre-patched already? Which would mean that we can plug and play fully patched once it's downloaded?

2. It seems that there's no merged week 3 DM patch, but just fragmented day to day ones. The problem being that the patches all share the same name, which make it impossible to just extract them since they'd just overwrite themselves, is there a workaround to make them work together at once?

3. A follow up to my second question: it seems that the day 20+21 DM patch is significantly larger than the others, which bring me to the suspicion that it might actually be the full week 3 release and that it's just a naming error?

English is not my first langage so please forgive any spelling mistake on my part.
Thank you for you help, fellow cultured lads and ladies !

Week 1 final is for week 1 day 8-14 final for week 2 week 3 is day 20-21 final it has all the days of week 3 hope that's help don't forget to turn dm path on in-game

 

[Themyschiron]

Thank you kind sir!

Wrote this a week ago and I still stand by it.

February post: Hey guys. Still haven't found a translator willing to translate 1.6 million words for 3 dollars and half a turkey sandwich. Anyway, I was gonna show everyone all the renders I did over the last 20 months but when I woke up this morning my cat had taken a screwdriver, opened my PC, removed the HDD and ate it with fava beans and a nice chianti. I promise to recover all my data within the next 12-18 months. Now on to the good news. The Swahili translations are almost finished.

Ha. But this is pretty detailed for Bluecat. All his posts are super positive, without any specific detail of what he is working on relating to actual content or anything the fans actually care about.

Here is my prediction.

"February/March Update:

Everything is going great as always. Thanks to our amazing rewrite of the game engine, merge number three, a few years from now, will only take a few days, so don't worry. Also, the translation into Esperanto is almost finished, for all you Esperanto speakers.

A big surprise for everyone. I have created a new main menu as a 3D video! Ecchi Sensei now has the greatest main menu of any AVN! And due to file compression, the menu video only takes up half the size of the original image.

Finally, what you have all been waiting for. I have very exciting news for the game. The dialog font has been converted to Helvetica Bold!

No need to thank me. Just keep the monthly donations coming, and you can expect more awesome game improvements like these!!"

This is all way to detailed for Bluecat. Plus, all his posts are very positive, without any specific detail of what he is working or anything the fans actually care about.

It's scary but I can actually see this being his response.

Prepare to be haunted be the character designs, snicker at the bad backgrounds, endeared by the zany story, impressed by the sheer girth of content, and then disappointed when it suddenly stops, and then furious to find out the game hasn't been updated in 2 years because the creator cant figure out how to put things together in Renpy and or is fleecing capital from people with sunk cost syndrome.

Kind of wish clans were a thing now on the forums, we could all band together and form a union lmao.

Perhaps bluecat should move game engines even, move on over to Godot or something so you have true full control and more capabilities if needed. Can't remember what game it was but one I've played that was made in that engine seemed to run very well, I find renpy games (even though it's... simplistic) are hit and miss in how well/smooth a game runs lol. Saw recently you can change the render and the other way of rendering the game makes it run better even though I really should not have any issues on a renpy game of all things.

Do NOT give bluecat any more ideas on how to delay the game any further

You mean you don't want a perfect game setup for the future?

Smarmint speaks like Bluecat and now you speak like Latecomer.... Shhhh be very very quiet, I'm smelling something suspicious.
