VN Ren'Py Echoes: The Lies We Tell Ourselves [Ep.1 Public] [Oldcat]

[7767]

Overview:
A young film student trying to escape a painful past by starting over at Oakheart University. To survive, he wears a mask—that of a charming, witty, and outgoing guy. But behind the scenes, he's just a quiet, observant director, terrified of letting anyone see the real him.
As MC, you'll navigate this new life and build relationships with six very different young women, each struggling with their own secrets and the lies they whisper to themselves. Your choices will determine if you can break through their walls—and your own—to find a genuine connection.​

Me, looking at the models like:

[WeltschmerzWanderer]

Two abandoned games and another two in the making

Three abandoned actually. [edit: Just the one after all, I stand corrected].
He does have a finished game too though. And that one was quite enjoyable for your average harem enthusiast

and one completed

3 abandoned games, 1 completed and another 2 in the making

Actually 1 Abandoned, 1 completed and 2 ongoing..

Coldcat =/= Oldcat

Is this the full episode or the free version with only 10/20% the dev was talking about?

Dis the Demo. I added that to the title v number.

 

[Cajun Fox]

Thanks

 

[DrakoGhoul]

Since I'm a fan of the dev's other work and this looks interesting. I'll check it out.

 

[Bazza95]

Thx, Bookmarked for future, will keep an eye on it see how others find it before I add it to my never ending list

Ah, I was wondering about that. I remember he used to go by Lyk4n, and did't recall any RPGM games

 

[Bob69]

Ah, I was wondering about that. I remember he used to go by Lyk4n, and did't recall any RPGM games

Yeah I canged the one game where it still said Lyk4n now they all have Oldcat in the title and will be found on LU. But for the link in the OP that links to the other games I excluded RPGM games now.

 

[AnyName'llDo]

The MC has some serious social anxiety. Interesting start. Way too soon to rate it.

 

[xmilteach]

thx

I have played this. This meme reflects my experience.

From my point of view, this developer is very average. And this is another example of a mediocre work that has no soul. It's a demo, and it lacks a lot of content. But I doubt the full chapter will be much better. The graphics are acceptable, although in Solo Leveling Myth of Slayer they are better. Endless and boring internal monologues in the form of thoughts from a soulless man who won't stop talking to himself. Seriously, the MC thinking talking to himself makes up at least 60% of the text. The scenes, like the dialogue, are insignificant and boring. Because of all this, I got so bored that I skipped a lot of text. I hope the full version is much better than this. At least the UI, menus, and galleries are very well done. But nobody plays a visual novel for the menus... If the developer intended to attract people who aren't Patreons with this work, he failed miserably. I forgot to add: only images 1, 2, and 6 appear in the demo.
