VN Ren'Py Friends in Need [Ch.1 Remake v0.25] [NeonGhosts]

[Jace_Herondale]

50 girls and there is no Harem tag?
What a waste.

The number of girls does not make it a harem.

 

[Jace_Herondale]

It's just early teaser of sorts, not the whole thing the author is still working on.

It's that thing that was already released on his page a week ago?

I imagine so, yes.

 

[Anime34guy]

So there isn't a harem path?

Contains the beginning of Chapter 11, with 138 images.

I'm good

 

[citrone]

138 images? is this a joke?

 

[Joshy92]

While this teaser is very tempting, I'll wait for the whole meal. I still need to redo my game anyway since I lost my saves.

 

[Avaron1974]

So there isn't a harem path?

No.

 

[sirdrak3]

Any ideas on a rough eta or how close you are to the final version?

does taboo patch still work?

Just a teaser for chapter 11 its not an actual release not sure why it got updated as if it was.

This is what happens when devs do unnecessary remakes of the BEGINNING of a game. The progression of the game gets put on hold while he remakes some stuff we've played through already. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against remakes, but I think they should be done after the story is completed instead of pausing the game midway. That's just my 2 cents and not everyone is going to agree and that's understandable. Unless I'm missing something here I stand by it.

There are scenes with so many variables they fuck up the continuation of the story. The first date with Ashe is a mentioned example of this, and if we want that story to keep going a remake is necessary, sadly.

But it could have been have been done over 12-18 months ago..instead of having update after update after update...all the while knowing it still needed doing and would fuck everyone's saves up and force them to restart. Not a good look three years after it started.

does taboo patch still work?

Yes, assuming you have Friends in Need, the "patch" should still work. It just sets the value to True inside the patch.rpy file. You can manually do this with a text editor.

Sometimes you try to work around the problem, only to realize you can't.

yeah you are missing small detail - sometimes, by not remaking things now, you just add to the pile of work later. and then there is this thing, that in vast majority of cases devs have much more expertise in their game and what they want to do with it then average f95 user

What you are missing is that this isn't the full next update but just early sneak peek released by the author for people who'd be interested in such thing. The completed update will have full next chapter instead of just small sliver of it.

The alternative was not to get any update for a few more weeks.

This game's development has ground to a halt...

Ok that's better. usually devs pause the progression just to remake a chapter. But if that isn't the case here kudos to the dev for multitasking. I just hope the saves aren't broken.
