Hah, thanks! I've mentioned before that I'd really like to do a riff on Bad Bobby one day. I think I'd have a lot of fun playing in that little universe, and using some well-worn tropes of the genre. But as always, time remains the limiting factor.
lol, man that game... everyone wants to do a spinoff, so I guess that says something good about it, yet also something bad if u think about it (i.e. wasn't satisfying enough to play, whether lack of content or something else, so u feel the need to improve its many flaws; at least thats my interpretation). for me personally, it has good character models and a very good idea base, also one of my first games i discovered with nice darker content (or at least the promise of it), but damn is the execution pretty horrible. nothing kills a boner quicker than "free roam" repeating crap over and over looking for where you're supposed to go next, just ends up being wasteful padding so the dev can say "many hours of playtime" or w/e. many devs come and go promising to properly implement it, but, I could see u being the chosen one :LOL: in an alternate universe where u have the time, ofc :p

What an incredible game! The story is gripping from the start, the characters are all interesting and rich in personality. The writing is precisely mastered, the themes reinforce this psychological/adult side sought. I really like the variety of options left to the reader and the impact it leads to.
I also hope that some choices made in previous chapters will have more or less visible consequences on the sequel (y)

Can't wait to find out what happens next, keep up the good work pal ;)

The next update should be a scene with Ashe and Viola, sex scene with Ashe and end with getting Mr. Barron out of jail with Gabby and Madison.
Correct! And time permitting, I'm going to add two more small scenes - one featuring Alex, and one with Risa.

Hah! I have a weird view of that game, which boils down to: it's not good, but I like it! I think that as this whole genre has expanded and grown, Bad Bobby has remained this weird, quaint little project that somehow still tends to work. Like, the art is a little weird, it's laden with typos, and the story is very straightforward, but there's kind of a visceral appeal to it.

I'd planned to do a riff on the scene where Bobby discovers Lucy in the shower after a night of partying, but never really had the time to futz with it.

Risa is the thirsty receptionist at Guy's building but i don't remember Alex, who is she? My memory can be shitty for names sometimes. :FacePalm: :LOL:

Alex is Nikki's archnemesis. She took umbrage at how nakedly Alex was flirting with Guy while installing the hot tub. It was memorable to me because Nikki made the funniest expression in the entire game when she was mocking her. It was like one of the Assholes from Spaceballs fucked Veruca Salt from Willy Wonka.

I don't know, man. I'm still stuck on the Ashe x Nicki long-term dilemma (if the game allows it). Hoping to see more of Ashe's tender side, if it ever arrives. Great stuff.

I'm surprised to see Bad Bobby in this thread. Aren't there several versions out there? Being able to catch shoplifters and blackmail them caught my attention, but nothing more. And that never finished being fully implemented either.

In any case, Bad Bobby and FiN are light years away. With FiN winning by far, obviously.

That's my unfinished Bad Bobby-inspired game, which I was calling Party Monster at the time. Because it takes place after a Halloween party. :D

What when? Is this on a dark path?
Sharing is putting it a bit strongly, maybe. But yes, if you force Brittani to continue the photoshoot after you wake up from getting sucker-punched by Jamie, and Nicki's on a dark path, you can have Nicki participate in the photoshoot as well. During which Brittani will grope and disrobe her, while she's in-character as a devil.
