VN Ren'Py Abandoned Haunted University [v0.1] [Axolotl Games]

[Clemency]

Wow so much controversy around here over attractive models being used as public toilets while lousy models are used as LIs... Perhaps the developer should start a poll to see which models are deemed attractive by most people?

After all what's attractive kind of varies significantly between players and it would be good to see if the sentiment is shared by most people or just a vocal minority? If it's the former then at least there's a chance to rework the whole thing before going further...

I do not even know who is who at this point to be honest since I have not downloaded the game. Waiting for clarity on the monogamy path and more content.

I assume this girl is the sore point of contention for v0.1 fucking the roommate? Or at least I think this is the girl who fucks the roommate..?

LOL I have no idea as well since most of the time I don't play V0.1 games, too many dead ends.

If this is indeed the so called "NTR" girl, then I don't mind... She looks cheap in my book and perfect for a public toilet role, but again as I said earlier everyone has a different definition of what is hot. If it's going to be a so called monogamy one LI game with a few touch & go sex scenes with side LIs, the developer had better make sure the model for that main LI fits most people's taste.

Monogamy games are high risk compared to harems because once the physical model and character buildup does not meet the taste of enough patrons, the finances will die out eventually. It's better to have a systematic and statistical approach to collect feedback early rather than wait for things to sour later.

No. "NTR" girl is not visible in OP pictures.

Not this girl, this girl is a LI (with a bitch attidute, who had harem of simps in the school).

Ah, I see, I see. Guess I did not miss out much. I really need to get on this game's discord. Based on what people are talking about, I thought these three were the LIs:



I assume two of these are though. The ones on the left and the right are cute.

It seems so, + add girl from your previous post, because you already can go on a date-ish dinner with her and it seems she'll be big time present in the story, so she's probably a main girl as well.

Only first one confirmed is a LI. We don't know for sure about others two.
We have only 3 confirmed LI out of 7, at this point. One you showed in previous post. Second one in this post. Third one with a blue hair, who we don't see much in the game rn.

This is just what is listed in the Album, so the Others is just an assumption. Mercedes and Heaven don't appear, just the girl the roommate fucks and the bartender so far. We also apparently haven't met the other 4 LI's.

The bartender I can get down with, but I'm not interested in my roommates scraps... he straight up calls her a hooker, and considering he is in a relationship with another girl and she knows it but still bangs him on the MC's bed (which the MC is way too chill about), that's really all we need to know about her.

Oh so there are 7 LIs. Then what's all the fuss over having only one LI and the rest as sides? Was it something the developer said specifically or just speculation from some players?

You can only pick one of the seven exclusively (and they will have sex with you exclusively) but he also said you can have a "harem" of side-characters who are in a more open relationship with other guys. What he means with that (monogamy + a "harem of side characters" or monogamy is the end goal but you can choose to not commit to any of the 7 and just be a fuckboy with the side characters?), he refuses to elaborate and his discord link is not working because it is not an invite link.

Here's his post:

Hello,
The game will have important choices that will impact the story and the relationships with the LI.
But for the moment, the choices have little impact. I'll wait until I've introduced each LI properly before I really start making big choices.

The game will have 7 LI. For the moment there's only Dina, Kimberly and Sakura.
All the other characters are secondary, and it will be possible to have relationships with them without consequences.
The LIs, on the other hand, are not part of the harem aspect.
As for the number of chapters, I'm thinking about ten. The best games are those that have an end, and don't drag on unnecessarily.

I apologize in advance for my bad English.

As important as breeding those bitches? Sorry! Do you plan on implementing pregnancy and breeding content though? Much love!

Yeah speculation of "ntr shit" cause some guys has been chocked to find one girl in bed with a guy (with one big obvious warning, this is not imposed) and other sides girls talking about banging others guys...
Also, speculation this is a 0.1 prologue version, first game, everything can change and mistakes happened. I think he close his discord because he don't want to take any insults, "ntr" and cheating is sensitive over here...

I wouldn't be surprised. There's people getting all upset here that I wouldn't talk to if you offered me a thousand bucks.

I think the only real mistake the dev made was not clearly explaining what kind of harem to expect at the start of the game, to send all the thin skinned incel kiddies packing so they don't clog up the thread and go elsewhere.

That's probably what a lot of game devs should be doing moving forward. Offer a disclaimer that makes clear who they don't pander to so those kiddies take their ceaseless whining elsewhere and don't get invested in a game that hurts their fragile masculinity.

 

[Naps-On-Dirt]

I haven't finished yet but from a technical standpoint, the writing is pretty good for a non-native speaker. The only issues I've seen so far are repeated incorrect pronouns (very common in games from devs whose native language is gendered, like French and Spanish) and the occasional butchered idiom. And some spelling errors. (Chapitre 2 coming soon???)

 

[Clemency]

You know what, she is usually not my type but I can fix her casual disregard for her father's labor law violations!



Also, it's early but I like my friend group already.

Tides of Succession's dev has aced this part. Props to that guy.

Very optimistic. I noped my way out of that one. Hope she changes for the better later on, but I do require some level of acceptable personality.

Also, it's early but I like my friend group already.

That was a pretty positive surprise. A lot of games barely if ever put any male friends into a story, and if so, they're all some personalityless stereotype. Feels like there's a lot of potential for the type of friend group full of unique individuals here.

Huh. Never played that one, but looks promising. Guess I'll check it out, thanks.
But yeah, signaling to the audience what to expect and what not to expect is surprisingly important. Quality alone rarely lands, you need to signal to kind of people who'd like your story and warn away those who wouldn't.
Most of the negative reviews so far are just people who are not the audience for this game.

 

[eki6859]

I just hope he don't lose motivation and abandon his project because of this.

Plus, I agree for Kimber, I generally dont like bitchy girl with very Big curves but she has those cute moments... And the blonde girl of the trio can be promoted

What a strange approach... I've played harem or pick one LI games, but pick one LI with a harem of side girls is rare. I wonder how the game is going to be internally consistent going forward
