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

[frap]

...
I don't know about fun, it can be hard work. I'm writing a script for a female MC who is full vaginatarian; I'm neither! I might ask my sister for help though or certain other members of the forum It is equal parts exciting and nervewracking having someone read your work and wondering if they like it.

Hard, yes, but the end result is fun.

I recently had a short story place in a writing contest: written first person from a guy who is my ethical and moral opposite (as in he has none.) He makes a big deal about not lying about the small stuff... because he saves it up for the big lies. He gaslights his coworkers, uses them to get his way, and continues on as if he's the most reasonable person ever.

In the end, he doesn't learn his lesson, even after it costs him everything. He just gets more determined to be a better liar.

The writing part was difficult, but the joy in reading it, and really hating the protagonist... the judges thought so too.

I want to hook up Mike with Sarah... *taunts the crowd and runs*

I raise your taunt with a let's write off Mike and introduce the third male:

Poor Mike, he doesn't deserve that kind of treatment.

There's already an Eric in the game. Or did you not meet him in Chapter 1?

Soooo worth it!

 

[Akamari]

Someone else is also a liar! To the stocks with you!

Is not! Someone else only wants Sarah to be happy if she can't have him in some reality. Would Chris do instead?

I ship Mircus.... one is a giving man and the other likes to swotch switches

Nice shirt, though pink text on grey background is not ideal for legibility... I suppose you did this on purpose, so that folks would have to look closer, hmmm?

I'm not staring! I'm trying to read the small text!

 

[Dripping]

"But only after dinner
and a mumblemumble"?

 

[Nottravis]

I can't believe Amanda wouldn't have everyone's best interests at heart.

Indeed!

Or does it have anything to do with Amanda's wishes...to have horses around? *yikes at the image of Amanda riding on him across Ophion plains*

Oh heavens no, nothing like that all. Something...much different.

Some peeps are completionists, never underestimate the lows, highs and length those obsessed ones will go to.

It'd take an age! So let's say you've done a complete run through so you can hit skip on those scenes that don't change (which would still leave a lot I guess). But say 15 minutes for the other 115 walkthroughs as an average for each chapter (some are shorter like One and Two of course), but then we have to add in time for the specials which have their own paths (didn't even include those!), so the VR game has twelve different runs itself. But let's stick with 15mins for giggles. 15 x ten chapters = 150 mins x 115 (for you've done one) = 17,250 mins or 287 hours (I've also excluded bonus material, easter eggs etc).

No one is going to spend nearly 300 hours playing this surely?!!!

*wonders what render finished this time and what render is being prepared next*

*took time off naughties to do some of the upfront stuff, so Becca etc*

I couldn't read the fine print on my 27" (even at 1080p). Had to turn on the 42" and throw it up on that monitor.

[Nottravis]

.. you're a doll...

*is!*

You're more like black light. Fun to play with, until you start to notice all the stains.

*sends out for more glares!*

She does, actually! Case in point:

Good call. I put that in delib to prep the player.

That actually brings a question... where is Chris from?

Oddly enough, Amanda touches on this...

My glasses are waiting for me at Specsavers (other opticians are available); what does it say?

Indeed!

You grossly underestimate the will of the determined pervert! Not that there are any perverts here mind; I mean we're all here for the story, aren't we?

I couldn't read the fine print on my 27" (even at 1080p). Had to turn on the 42" and throw it up on that monitor.

And?

 

[Nottravis]

As long as Sarah can keep her cool, she'll be fine; I mean she did fine in the VR game... eventually

She does get a bit distracted at times....*coughs*

Loved it!

Brill!

So very true. In fact, it's often more fun to write someone you're nothing like!

*considers this proof of her innocent, wide eyed, demeanor*

It is equal parts exciting and nervewracking having someone read your work and wondering if they like it.

Tell me about it!

 

[Akamari]

See, this is how it racks up hundereds of playtime hours.

As you would say, totes would!

I may have already spent 60 hours or more... I'm doomed, aren't I?

*concedes this was her goal - is adorable like that*

"But only after dinner

But only after dinner and a movie!

As you would say, totes would!

I may have already spent 60 hours or more... I'm doomed, aren't I?

Only 60? Pfft, amateur! I may have spent upwards of 100 hours on this so far So yes, 300+ by CH10, not gonna be an issue.

*concedes this was her goal - is adorable like that*

Uh huh, adorable, yeah, let's go with adorable.
