VN Ren'Py Finding Mia [Development Thread]

[Eroguri]

Hello, guys I am Eroguri and I am the 3D artist for the development team "Untitled-Goons" which is creating "Finding Mia". We are very new developers in the scene and wanted to tease our project's development which should be coming out very soon. Since we are new developers, advice and help would be greatly appreciated.

"Finding Mia" is about - After the recent death of his father and a tragedy involving his girlfriend, the MC (Isaiah by default) returns to live with his old (Roomates) in order to set his life straight and get over the past. Unbeknownst to him, however, sinister forces are moving in the dark, seeking to pull him into a role he was born to play in a conspiracy that stretches back farther than he could ever imagine. As the player, you will decide what path his life takes and whether he will choose to lean into his newfound fate or try to defy it. With either choice you will meet several interesting people and piece together more and more of what is happening, with one ultimate goal in mind: Finding Mia.

The 4 main heroines introductions

Mia - Mia the MC’s girlfriend, had always been sweet, energetic, and caring, someone who brought warmth into his life. Before the story begins, she is believed to have been killed by an unknown entity at her home. However, with the body mangled beyond all recognition, the MC is left without any form of closure. Not wanting to give up hope, the MC undertakes a desperate search to figure out who the dead girl really was and where Mia is, ultimately ending his search in failure. That is, until recent events cause memories of the past to resurface and lead him toward the truth of what happened to her.

Alissa - Alissa is the MC’s younger (roommate) , having grown up alongside him before his departure. Always shy and a bit clumsy, yet with a mischievous side, she rarely left her home, which made the MC her only true friend. After he left, her life began to unravel; she sank into depression and self-loathing until a certain event jolted her awake to the beautiful world rushing past her. That moment filled her with determination to become more outgoing and embrace life without fear. Now, with the MC’s return, she is driven by a new resolve: to save the best friend she thought she had lost forever.

Julia - Julia is the MC’s older (Roommate). Unlike Alissa, Julia was never friendly with the MC, maintaining a standoffish attitude that caused the two to butt heads constantly. When the (Landlord) left and took the MC with him, her animosity only hardened. Pushed by her (Landlady), she poured herself into studying to secure a future. With little money, her only chance was a scholarship, and she was fortunate enough to earn a full ride. When the (Landlord) died, Julia was furious to discover that he had left her and her (Landlady) nothing, instead bequeathing everything to his (tenet) the MC. That betrayal reignited the long-buried anger she harbored toward him. Barely half a year later, she slipped up in college, got into a heated fight with a prominent professor, and lost her scholarship, forcing her to return home. Now, with MC returning to town, it’s only a matter of when, not if, she will finally explode in his face.

Anna - Anna is the MC’s (landlady). She always cared deeply for him and worried about him more than anyone, even after he left. During his absence, she was filled with a drive to nurture her two (tenants) into strong, independent women who could stand on their own. That mission drove her to reject every man who came near her, to prove to the girls that they didn’t need a (landlord) or any man to survive. As a result, her two (tenants) were nurtured in a house with no male presence at all. This lack of help, combined with holding down a full-time job while nurturing them, pushed the household to the edge of financial hardship; making them barely scrap by. Now that the MC has returned, Anna is struggling to adjust to having a man at the center of her life again, but she still understands that its up to her to help nurture him up from his terrible circumstances.

Looks interesting. I really hope Mia isn't gone, cause don't know it I want to go through that cause I like Mia's design a lot and if she comes back its not like just near end.

I do like some "landladys and roommates" stories though. Also, I hope to see what MC looks like soon, cause usually that does matter to an extent to me also.

The final thing is I am not sold on the "landlady" she looks entirely too young and like same age as of other girls.

But besides that, nice job and am excited to check out when it drops, maybe.

I really appreciate the input and will look into the landlady design. Also I hope you'll check out the release, which is coming very soon.

Love the character models, do you use G9? and how much post-processing did you use for these pictures? Thanks.

Edit: Also wondered, because now playing, you changed from Daz to Blender. What are your reasons? Your animations are the best I've personally seen in a AVN, but did you consider animating in blender, then exporting the animations then rendering in Daz? Just wondered because this is one issue I've personally tried to find a good solution to.

I do use G9 for all my characters. I used the compositor nodes in blender for the post-processing, I just increased the saturation and contrast a little. I mainly switched to Blender because of its animation capabilities. At first, I considered creating animations in blender and exporting them to Daz, but by time I created my first couple of animations, I’d grown too comfortable with Blender to switch back. I also really like how Blender’s renders look, but that’s just my personal preference.
