VN Ren'Py Friends in Need [S1 v0.95b] [NeonGhosts]

[bigmen]

I have to say that i really hate when developers start remaking the game before finishing it but in this case it really feels that the story improved. The only but is that it would be a even greater game if he added animations...

Do we have ETA? i've read that is between this month (only 4 days left so i doubt it) and next month but do we know if its early, mid or late august?

Just to avoid spooking anyone about Britt's tattoo, please remember that your buddy Neon likes to fuck around and subvert expectations a bit.

Definitely not this month, and most likely late August. I'll have a new demo out this month for high-tier supporters, but I try to avoid announcing actual release dates, until I've got a more-or-less finished product in my hands.

too late, now we want a signed form that you will never ruin her

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

I assume that tattoo on britt is a henna and not permanent.

 

[bella1]

is the taboo patch supposed to be empty?

is the taboo patch supposed to be empty?

Yes. It's just a blank file that acts like a toggle.

Just to make sure I'm following correctly, Chapters 1-10 are getting various levels of changes and being re-released, and then once they've been done the new Chapter, 11, will be released?

 

[Naps-On-Dirt]

My impression wasn't that it was henna (which should look brownish) but a printable tattoo that cosplayers use. They're done on inkjet printers with special paper and typically are jet black if you don't make the effort to shade them to look realistic (and have a color inkjet printer), which most people don't do (or have the skills to.) They peel off after a day or two, depending on how sweaty/oily the part of the body they are applied to. You can scrub them off but it is annoying to do and can be a little painful. I'm sure you all wanted to know that. Just wanted to give you another comforting thought about impermanent tattoos that a model might wear to a themed photoshoot or something.
Look on Amazon for Silhouette Tattoo Paper if you're curious.

Basically, yes. Until then, I'm releasing Chapter 11 stuff to high-tier supporters as a self-contained update, which basically allows them to change variables to examine the various plot paths.

Hope your adding more lucien contents in the remake?

 

[BlenderGuy]

Nicki in the remake is adorable.
Not sure why.
I can't even hate her.

Never been a reason to hate Nicki unless you're intentionally looking for one because you want to hate her.

 

[NeonGhosts]

The Lucien stuff isn't really being touched in the "remake" stuff. That chapter's basically just having code updates, etc.

But Lucien will remain a part of the game if you're pursuing Risa's path, so we'll see more of him.

Nicki is the best! And that since the beginning!

Dev Update! 7/28/25

.. will be delayed until Wednesday. I'm writing up something to discuss some of the recent news around adult visual novels and the increasing challenges of operating in this space, and I want to take my time with it.
As penance, here's a 4K image of Nicki in lingerie. See you back here in a couple days!

Based on the statement, I am now I am worried Cassie is getting changed in some way. I have just seen so many games I enjoy go through this recently, which puts a damper on them, I really hope that isn't the case.

Neon may want to rethink having anything happen between Guy & Cassie - since that's on the Itch no-no list. He could possibly do it as part of the patched content but even then, it would have to be like nothing happened without the patch.

Why would he change Cassie? The Friends in Need version already violates the rules of all payment processors. The Friends Indeed version wouldn't contain incest anyway, so no changes are needed.

Unless he scraps the Friends in Need version altogether.
