VN Ren'Py Element-174 [v0.24] [Knotty Games]

[Shyguy1369]

So confused with the Walkthrough. I tried following it for the girls I like, and still not getting scenes. Plus, one of the more recent scenes disturbed me so I will be taking a break and trying to figure out how to play to build the paths for the girls I like. Quite the confusing game indeed.

 

[:asg:]

Question about Sub-Routes, if anyone can help me.

I keep seeing mention of sub-routes, but I don't understand what the term is referring to. I assume it is either:

A. A way to view one character's scenes while being primarily involved with a different character.

OR

B. Some kind of crossover scenes that can only be achieved by having a high enough score with all girls involved. (e.g. a threesome with Trish and Emma, requiring a high score with both)

Could somebody clarify if a sub-route is option A, option B, or something else? I want to focus on one girl at a time, but I'm afraid ignoring the others might cause me to miss extra scenes if option B is true.

Some girls don't have explicit scenes until after the first week! Others are really outgoing, and you can get scenes easily with them. Maybe you just have a thing for the slow ones? Try playing them past Day 8, some of them take that long.

If not that, maybe it's trying to balance too many characters at once? Spreading too thin in a single playthrough? The walkthroughs have worked well for me, but I have a different save going for each girl.

Hopefully one of these helps. :3

 

[KnottyGames]

Yep, :asg: is correct. Some of the girls like Emma are more outgoing and have explicit scenes as early as week 1. It might be a case of spreading points across too many girls. Try to focus on no more than 3 in a playthrough in order to continue get as many sex scene as possible for a girl. Some parts might force you to choose, but sometimes they coincide which brings me to the other point...

Sub-routes are closer to the B option :asg:. They're basically additional scenes that are offered when you're maintaining two girl's routes. Sometimes they have an additional requirement like agreeing to Jules plan to corrupt Chloe. You can consider each main route like the default, with these sub-routes as variations. The likely outcome for these routes is a threesome (or sometimes direct conflict, as well), but they can also influence the story and what happens when you start the final week after you've chosen your "main girl."

 

[:asg:]

KnottyGames, thanks for the quick and thorough response to clear things up. I'll have to restart a few saves now, but at least you saved me from going too far before I realized what I was missing. Keep up the fantastic work. You're a star.

So I replayed the game just a few days ago (not in its entirety), and was wondering if the screen we see at the end of each day (attached files) was an allusion or somehow related to the real existing Lorenz attractor. Considering the fact that the concept of multiversal timelines is already touched upon, I find it quite interesting how the MC will handle this in the future game, if he does at all. (Don't know if the dev is around here, maybe it's just my apophenia playing tricks on me again, and maybe someone made this observation in the past.)

Interesting theory, and definitely looks like it's a variation of it. So you may be on to something there

that intro music hit different, love it!!!

It's definitely a Lorenz attractor that's shown everyday! Good catch!

What's up with the unskippable fade-outs? I'm trying to replay the game but those few seconds long parts are so immensely annoying. I even disabled transitions but that doesn't help.

 

[zainon]

a lot of possibilities in every choices. every character have secret to offer! GJ
btw trish is just so badass and cute at the same time hahaha

Tentacles? Poor MC...
Okay, now seriously. Is it possible to avoid / skip the tentacle scenes?

not if you want Katy

 

[Sterkh90]

not if you want Katy

I haven't played yet. Is she LI? If I want to start a romantic relationship with her, I need to let her have tentacle sex. An unusual approach, to put it mildly.

Finally got around to starting this game, and just got to chapter 2. Not going thru 57 pages of comments, but can I assume that the dev is a Douglas Adams fan? Kinda sounds like the Infinite Improbability Drive from the Heart of Gold...

I have not read any of the Hitchhiker's Guide books or anything else by Adams, but I probably should!

Most definitely....good stuff. Great game so far...really enjoying it.

 

[porokingbs]

Wow, just downloaded the game yesterday, instantly shot up to one of my favorites. Story is probably one of the most interesting, the renders look a little fuzzy at times, but the girls look gorgeous and hopefully the quality gets better with time. GL, dev!

After searching the thread for update information and finding nothing since January 2021, I'm curious if there's any information on when we might expect one. Great game.
