VN Ren'Py Hard to Love [v0.27] [Qori Gaming]

[ramvivat]

He certainly was at the beginning and end...
He was a truly evil fuck at the start.

maybe... maybe not - maybe he is product of his envoinment who simply gets crazy.
but our MC?
the topic was about the MC who, apparently, is incapable of behaving as a typical older brother with common sense - that is, if he does not engage in good-natured domestic bullying of his younger sister (simply because he is the older one, and she is just a "little brat"), then at least he does not allow himself to be offended. here, the MC is a weakling, incapable of standing up for himself, unable to put an arrogant brat in her place.
well... fucked up family...

Is mc sister virgin, the one with tattoo? Because i didn't play the game after some updates, i don't know if she. I mean she was in love with mc before mc gone away from hometown or before he made a girl pregnant. And i know it is absurd to ask if a grown ass women is virgin but I mean she was in love with him, right? Maybe she stayed without any relationship.

I thought MC and his sister fucked? Maybe remembering wrong...

I don't remember either. Maybe because i played too many games in between. Last time I played this game was before season 1 was ended. I want to play this game again but I have other 5 games to play which is in my laptop. I don't have mood to play, because I get too addictive to it.
Was mc sister in relationship with other people while mc was gone?

I'm pretty sure that's a no. At least not guys - possibly girls, and as an abuser.

yes, MC's sister (amber with the tattoos) was a virgin and it is shown in a memory that her first time was with him.

✧ End of Month Update - So Close! ✧
Hey everyone! Your sleepy dev Yukana here~ (´∀｀)
The update is coming at month's end if everything goes to plan! All renders are done and post-processed in Lightroom - they look absolutely gorgeous! What's left? Programming new features, dialogue, and finishing animations.
Progress so far:
✅ 6 animations completed (some 120 frames, others 390 frames!)
5 more animations planned
Each frame gets individual Lightroom + Photoshop treatment
My poor PC is working 24/7 rendering at 8K then downscaling to FHD for those crispy texture details! Each frame takes ~20 minutes depending on complexity. Pray my hardware survives this marathon! (´；ω；`)
Big news: I'm creating ALL the music myself now! No more copyright worries for Steam release - every song is mine! Planning to add an in-game music player and maybe release tracks on streaming platforms. I know some of you don't care about music, but you've loved my previous choices, so hopefully my ear is still good? ♪(´▽｀)
Story-wise: I realized Episode 5 (this update) actually completes Act 1! It wraps up MC's main social conflicts after his long absence and advances Antonella's central plot. Act 2 starts with Episode 6, focusing on Antonella again, MC's detective career, and pre-rework characters returning.
This update features:
Hentai scenes: Amber, Elizabeth, Madison
Ecchi scenes: Paz
Technical nerdy stuff (because I'm proud): Discovered better resampling methods than bicubic and improved my denoising! I'm also re-rendering old episodes in my free time (already did ~80 Episode 4 renders) to remove AI blending and create visual consistency. Before, I rendered at 4K with compressed textures and wonky lighting, using AI to fix it. Now I've learned proper rendering techniques!
Personal life: Still battling various challenges, but hoping this month goes better. Someone suggested checking other platforms like O***iman, and I might give that a shot! Also need to revive my abandoned It**.*o page.
Love you all, take care! ♡
Yukana

 

[Gnosh]

I'm stuck here. Can someone help me?

 

[Zane Truesdale]

Do we have any info about the update? Since the release month ended and nothing happened.

I hate AI

Overview:
Near-death experience usually forces many people to reminisce about their past, bright and happy memories. So does MC, reliving his most brilliant memory - his first love. And with old wounds still open and new yet to heal, Main Character is forced to go back to his parental house and his old dysfunctional family. Being stuck there, fighting demons of past and present, he wonders about love. Why did the girl he loved abandon him and their love child? Has she ever loved him? Is she alive and still remembers him? Should he move on and try to establish something new with someone else? Maybe with a woman he always looked up to? Or with his partners or friends? Someone else entirely? Or should he focus the rest of his life on raising his daughter right? Follow the MC on his paths of uncovering truths and fixing mistakes as he tries to sort out his love life and protect his daughter in Hard to Love.​

Is V0.25 like season 3 or a remake of season 1 or 2?

 

[duckydoodoo]

Is V0.25 like season 3 or a remake of season 1 or 2?

its a remake. so far theres been new content and old content, but stories been changed. somehow its both more and less cohesive. anyway, it kinda feels like we are all caught up story length wise, but are somehow missing alot of the story we once knew and was replaced by story we didnt. so idk. but yeah a remake

Expect an update this weekend

Hey everyone... (´・ω・`)
So like... the update is basically done?? All the important stuff is there - music, sfx, dialogues, code, renders, animations... just need to add some thumbnails for a new section and achievement thumbnails...
If everything goes according to plan (which knowing my luck... probably won't lol) it should be out this weekend after I test everything like 50 times because I'm paranoid about bugs...
Thanks for not abandoning me during these months without updates... I know I'm not the most reliable dev but depression brain makes everything take 10x longer than it should... Hopefully you'll like how Act 1 ends though??
I'll post the changelog so you can see what's coming...
Bye for now...
Yukana
p.s. my cats have been judging me for staying up all night coding again... even they think i'm a mess (｡•́︿•̀｡)
