such a awuful interphase, and stuf, the delay on scenes is pain too , then only a few renders after so much time ,

only good chars renders if so or dencent


DEVELOPER should have go for a normal renpy game, and stop trying to tell himself that he can do a nice ( whatever this can called) no game. sould have put more work into renders and less into coding and doing this intephase

The dev is taking a break april to may would not surprise me if it gets abandoned like so many promising games
Perhaps. But unlike a lot of other cases that you find, this dev has already completed multiple games before this. I'm not saying that prevents abandonment per se, but it usually makes abandonment less likely.

Sorry it has taken awhile to respond, been away for Xmas.
As for the 'missing' images it is down to spelling error. In script5b.rpy look for the scenes 'Briefing' and change to 'briefing'.
You can do this amendment for any other missing images.
Same for this, should be scene5b.rpy

Is XLB still active? I've just checked his Subscribestar page and it still is in Vacation Mode, which should have ended on 18 June.

He is. He just posted the new game thread for X-Trek III a couple of weeks ago and commented on it since then as well. That's shown to be Completed, so it might just be that this was paused while he worked on and finished that other game. I know he's talked for awhile in the past 6 months or so that he planned to make / finish X-Trek III, so I'm personally neither surprised nor worried about the delay on this game.

Thanks for the info.
I have downloaded X-Trek III and am in the process of converting it, and X-Trek I and II, to Ren'Py versions as I did for Father Figure.

Ahh, Family Video, that brings back someone memories of childhood right there. :)

edit: also, I feel there should be a non-Cammy route. at the beginning, the very first choice could be, Do you have a sexual relationship with Cammy? Y/N. You would still have the option to seduce her of course, but it would be great to get a solo Rose route as well.

This late in the game, I understand that more than likely won't happen without rewriting a lot of the game, and the options that involve Cammy, so I know that is unrealistic, just stating an opinion. I do like playing the Cammy route, but when I play games I like to focus on each character individually, then the harem option.

That is just my personal preference, I don't want to take away from the dev's artistic expression, and I still really like this game and am eagerly looking forward to more updates in the future. This will definitely be added to my watch list.

Constructive criticism is perfectly fine of course, but at times it seems as though some folks just aren't happy unless they're complaining in the rudest, most obnoxious, self-entitled ways possible! :rolleyes: As usual it seems that it's the very vocal and rude minority that ruins things for the silent majority! It's unfortunate that you've decided to step away from F95, but it's your game and therefore it's your decision to make.

I'm really looking forward to the day when a dev just turns around and tells these nasty, self-entitled jerks "If you don't like it then fuck off and play something else!" o_O :ROFLMAO:
I know this is an older post, but I just wanted to say I completely agree with this. There is no reason to be nasty, and even when I give criticism, I try to be as decent as possible, and point out as many positives as I can. Devs can't grow unless they know what they are doing right and what they are doing wrong.. simply posting "I hate this game, go die" doesn't help anyone and is unnecessarily rude and confrontational. If you want a good gaming experience, then give honest feedback about what you are seeing and experiencing.

This is a pirate site, so interactions with the devs is relatively rare, and is a major plus (though F95 is awesome and I wish more devs were on here). So being able to have that honest interaction with a dev should be a bonus to get your voice heard, and maybe make a difference here or there with how a game progresses.

Every developer, artist etc, wants constructive criticism. It's the "constructive" part that usually fail around here :)

Just played this. Hope the dev provides an update! I very much enjoyed!
Not looking good. 339 days ago:

A Vacation Mode enabled
Xialiubei has decided to take a break from April 18, 2024 till June 18, 2024, but you can subscribe anyway.
Xialiubei has left this message for you:
The current update is taking a little longer than expected, so I am going to pause billing until it is ready.
