Ren'Py Abandoned Heavy Five [Ch.2RS] [Nottravis]

[TomberryDude]

Thought I'd give this a bash seeing as the dev seems cool and someone said it was a good game.

I'm taking a break from the game for a minute because it's making me think about something. I'm some ways into chapter 2 and it seems to me the fact that the game is way more serious and does not feel like porn that trying to roleplay and be a reasonable person is keeping me from the sex scenes so far.

And I don't know how I feel about that. Anyway, the game's great. The story's very interesting, I wanna now what happens next.The characters are cool enough. I don't like all of them but in a good story, that's actually better. The dialogue's especially nice. it feels more "real" than your average smut. I don't know if that sounds like a compliment but it is one.

Not sure if I wanted to give a Hahaha reaction or like, but yeah this game does need you to play with a little attitude adjustment if you played 5 or six porngames just before with landladies. The real sex will kick off in chapter 4 though and will depend on dealing with the women in game as persons, instead of just fast forwarding to the prize, so play as you wish.

The setup of this game is that it is actually a real story and game with serious adult themes and situations and quite a few kinks. Basically it is that book I was already looking for when I was 15 years old and in all the books you read, the main character seemed to only have his dick to pee with and kissing a woman was the height of eroticism you might see in those books. Hell if you wanted anything steamy you better read those romance novels directed at women and young girls.

 

[Akamari]

The only one that's for sure Notty's is number 4. After all, that's what she keeps talking about.

Number 4 isn't "Kissing Characters for Fun!"?

That must mean those books are actually Cabbee's...

There's that but it's mostly about what I want from a game. I'm happy to play good games, but on f95 that's not necessarilly my priority. Then the game just let me know I missed about 3 opportunity for good ole smexing. One of which was obvious and i just refused it because I'm not much of a sub... That's on me.

Sarah fucking kills me. Of course the woman I find most attractive I'm "not on her radar" at all. Story of my fucking life. And then she has to "twist the knife" so to speak. Although that's more funny than anything.

 

[Akamari]

We can already rename the saves pages (6 saves per page)... renamed save means more handlings before saving, it will not be worth it IMHO.

Yep, I agree. Not really fond of being forced to rename every save. That takes time.

What I would like is more saves per page.

Well Sarah has both a bad path and a playful part available already that both have some bonuses, so do not despair. We also know that Chris will likely have 4 paths of which only one is a domme path, one is a romance and one is more likely a friendly rivalry buddy with benefits and possibly also a bad path. So do not worry about missing something on a playthrough, this is a game meant to be replayed.

A nice option to have would be locked doors! (looking at you, Chris )

She said she would drop by. You should have listened to her.

Oh I'm sure it wil make up for my lack of early options later, or when the games done or something. It's interesting that you mention a "friendly rivalry" with Chris because that exactly how I feel about what's going on between her and myself right now. And I really like it.

It seems like there could be a lot of different paths to take and that's pretty cool.

What a mean way to crush one's dreams.

Provided that typo wasn't intentional. If it was... well, I can imagine myself making a two chapter game where you duel family members. Won't be popular, but if it's for the greater good...

Yes there are and they are partially exclusive, so you will never reach all end of chapter targets in one play through. They are more a tease by Notty to show you what is in game and to pique your interest to go see them if you wish to.

 

[TheDevian]

Hmm Canto got me thinking on what other helpful options might be nice to have.

Named Saves (How else am I going to tell my Sarah sad and happy saves?)
Opacity slider (of course if you do this font needs an outline so it can stand out against all backgrounds)
Pop ups like in Wife Trainer (Ex. Mike pressed the button...again. Becca is making coffee. The important note stuff.)
Gallery (For those who want to relive things)
Editable note area (so we can keep track of the story points)
Stickers (the small head images that people keep posting, a small sad Sarah head to go along with my evil save)
Instagram filter (need to play the whole game like one of the old timey movies in the game)

Anyone have any other ideas for nice pref/options?

I am still pushing for 100 save slots per page, like Harem Hotel.

Do you taste like wabbit?

Vewy wascally...

Pop ups like in Wife Trainer (Ex. Mike pressed the button...again. Becca is making coffee. The important note stuff.)
Not sure what we mean by pop ups?

I assume something like a tool tip, that pops-up when you mouse-over something. Can't say I know for certain, have not played that one.

I really did like the 'map' idea you showed. Too bad about the gallery, those can be nice, especially when they unlock based on the 'persistent' file, and not your save.

Same here about the sub, that is going to get messy by the sound of it. But rest assured, there will be a lot of other sexy options next time.

A couple of her things were a bit counter intuitive for me, she is a blast. Of course, it depends on your path.

Going to be well over a hundred possible endings (and that was cut down from the original idea).

 

[I'm Not Thea Lundgren!]

This.

Learning that pages can be renamed has been a huge help to me for branching games

Also, learning that you can delete saves in-game was a huge revelation for me!

Now that i saw the new number, i think i'm guilty... raised my pledge full steam ahead 3 days ago 'cause i have 4 months of pirate scum behavior to erase!
So technically, it's stable.

I did this too! I joined at the lowest level, saw what was actually there, raised my level to $15, then raised it again the next month. Got to make up for all the months I should have been pledging!

The same happened when i was playing for the first time with Chris.

Notty is setting the game to have several branching routes. So it will likely require a few playthroughs to see everything when it is done.

When Duel Family update comes out

So that is likely never, that game one of the reason you are so scared of appearing to milk? I never really got into that game, but I know that game burned a lot of people and definitely did not help newer devs to establish themselves.

Named Saves (How else am I going to tell my Sarah sad and happy saves?)
Covered now


Opacity slider (of course if you do this font needs an outline so it can stand out against all backgrounds)
Not a clue how to do else I would

Pop ups like in Wife Trainer (Ex. Mike pressed the button...again. Becca is making coffee. The important note stuff.)
Not sure what we mean by pop ups?

Gallery (For those who want to relive things)
Sadly no. I did look into it but again it seems beyond my coding abilities to understand tbh. One of the things I've noticed is that as my basic coding is apparently really complex, adding standard code fixes to things causes crashes.

Editable note area (so we can keep track of the story points)
Again probs beyond me. There are the PDA's of course for that. Especially the engineer PDA.

Stickers (the small head images that people keep posting, a small sad Sarah head to go along with my evil save)
As a downloadable thingy?

Instagram filter (need to play the whole game like one of the old timey movies in the game)

Anyone have any other ideas for nice pref/options?

Well there is a mod out there that just sets Opacity to full, if you can make your game work with that. Also some nice answer about adding standard code and the usability of them from Jack in wicked choices thread I linked. You may be running into the same thing. https://f95zone.to/threads/wicked-c...hanged-boy-v0-1-5-aslpro3d.29811/post-2366088

Yep, this isn't a simple porn game. It's much, much more than that.

 

[DA22]

Yeah, but for some people also less cause of that. Not everyone has the same needs and things they are looking for and as Thornberry already said this site may not be the place everyone looks to for a great game with story. Unfortunately I do not know of a true platform for really adult games yet.

Hey Tom

Thanks for giving my silly little game a try and I'm so very pleased you're finding something to enjoy about it.

It is, as you've guessed, a heavy story based first and foremost and is quite a slow burn for the first couple of chapters. Largely as I needed to set up quite a few things for the player and get them into the rhythm of the game, understand some of the plot and get a feel for the characters.

Three it starts to warm up and Four goes rather bonkers on the old sex front btw...

But as the guys say, there are a lot of paths and your relationships with the characters will very much depend on your choices. Chris is a good example whereby she can be an antagonist, a friend, a domme or indeed a pure romance option all depending on how you play your MC. I never saw why characters in games had to one dimensional. Why they couldn't react like...well, like we do y'know? We like people we like and we don't like people we don't. So why shouldn't they?

But for each character there is more than one path and relationship and not all of those have to be sexual. After all Amanda might not be everyone's cup of tea sexually but you still might like her. Again, I never saw why your relationship with a character in the game had to be purely defined by sex.

Sarah fucking kills me. Of course the woman I find most attractive I'm "not on her radar" at all. Story of my fucking life. And then she has to "twist the knife" so to speak. Although that's more funny than anything

As to Sarah...well, she's one of the more interesting ones pathwise. She certainly has an odd outlook on life for sure...

 

[Akamari]

Yeah, but for some people also less cause of that. Not everyone has the same needs and things they are looking for and as Thornberry already said this site may not be the place everyone looks to for a great game with story. Unfortunately I do not know of a true platform for really adult games yet.

You can't please everyone.

Adult games in every sense of the word are rare sadly.
