VN Ren'Py Friends in Need [Mini-Sode: Blue Valentine] [NeonGhosts]

[MilesEdgeworth]

Nikki's character is that she fell for the wrong guy and did whatever she had to do to survive. Hence why she puts up with OP's treatment of her for so long before she finally gets fed up.

 

[Dessolos]

I feel a lot of the issues could be corrected with some heavier implications of her submissive nature in relationships. It would help people understand why she was so easily manipulated. I think she'd make more sense as a cuckquean type character since she is clearly submissive in the sack while being outspoken and outgoing in her day to day life.

I forget even tho I replayed this not to long ago. But is she submissive with the MC on the love path as well I only recall submissive scenes with the middle path when I played this for the first time like 4 or so months ago.

Not saying Neon should do this or anything. but I think when the rework of Chapter 1 happens could have best of both worlds if it was something Neon even wanted to happen. If you give her money for sex or do dark path stuff to her she does go through with porno. but if you just give her money no sex then she doesn't. Just my idea not saying it's a good one or anything probably a crappy idea tbh as im no writer.

I actually had some ideas in this direction, but it's more like: get money, she doesn't ever go to the porn shoot, but still goes with Vaughn for a few months of strange artistic nude photos. Doesn't get money: does go to the porn shoot. So, she'll always have a certain amount of debt that needs removed, but the difference is how much/how desperate she is. I dunno, I'm still kicking that around. I want to simplify a few aspects of her whole gone-and-back narrative, part of which may mean having her absent for more like six months, rather than three.

That sounds like a neat idea tbh. I'm guessing dark-pathers don't mind so much about LI purity lol I still like the idea of romancing a more broken Nicki, but this tree of events would make perfect sense!

Nah, it'd stay basically as is -- she either goes there and narrowly avoids it, or just never goes at all.

That'd also necessitate her showing up at the end of Chapter Two in a much less disheveled state, but.. I dunno! Could be fun. It'd make that initial choice to help her or not extra impactful, but I'd need to look at some of the knock-on effects.

i don't think Nikki's early story needs changing. i like it the way it is. the rollercoaster of Nikki's story on chapter 2 was why I view your game highly.
idk about other aspects of early chapters but Nikki's early story is fine the way it is. Great even.

Wasn't expecting much when deciding to play this, but I have to say, I was really impressed.

I don't agree, a summa of Nicki's story Is knew (a fiancee who liked sharing her, sex for money, a semi-slave hidden period).I am SO curios how the Dev'fantasy should take her story in the past!

I agree that I don't think her story needs changing. But I do feel like it would be nice to have two new options to her first scene. One with no sex at all (yeah, i'm super weird) and one where you just don't give her money, sex or not.
Either of those two changes may well lead rather organically to changes in her story. Seems like the writing process is full of unexpected zigs and zags for the author here. But at the same time, there was something said about how the original scene itself was a comprimise to get to the point where the game would have a chance to be noticed. If it needs a re cut to be truer to the original vision, I for one have no idea what it's going to be in the end.

But so far, NeonGhosts isn't george lucas, so I have faith.

Han shot first.

On the love path she's more of a switch than a true submissive because she has these moments of confidence in the bedroom but that also could play into the cuckquean persona

Keep cooking.

Good game, without the walkthrough my gameplay was shit, but with the walkthrough I was able to enjoy the game, this game really needs a mod.

I used the URM and UCD at the same time, but it didn't help at all, the walkthrough is really necessary!

 

[Joshy92]

Something that sets this apart from other games is the amount of choices and branching.
I think we have all played games where the choices are basically 'Do you want to see this sex scene or not'

But not this game.
It gives us meaningful choices and just as important let's us treat the girls how we want.

Yeah, that's the best course of action imo. Imagine Nicki's haters if she is gang banged before coming back

tldr; released a new version of Friends in Need with 108 new images, comprising the first bit of Chapter 9, and I revealed the winner of Gabby's costume poll. Still aiming to have the full chapter ready by the end of the month, but it'll be tight. Folks at the $15 tier will continue to get playtest versions, though.

 

[Maviarab]

It's hard...but still gonna wait for the rework to be finished before starting again
