1. 2 more months before work starts on the endings. Probably a few months away from 100% including endings and the completed gallery (minus the patreon bonus scenes). Meanwhile work on HC3 is starting up as well.I just finished chapter 1 and I have some questions on this game...
1)How much time do you think it will take for the dev to finish it?
2)It's as good as the first chapter?
3)Is this game somehow connected to chapter 1?
4)What is NTR mom content about?
To be honest, I've never been much of a fan of such antagonists from a purely developer standpoint. they don't offer much in terms of story, and always end up being quite stereotypical which doesn't allow for much room during character development. However, I understand the appeal for H scenes when the antagonists are the complete opposite of what normal women might look for in a potential partner, yet still fall prey to their schemes and end up corrupted by them.what about the antagonists? Is it possible to make them a bit more unlikeable then Edwyr/Zeno or Ezekiel. They all had the looks and appeal. It would be also interesting to have like a fat king or noble man instead of a good looking young men. And dont get me wrong, I don't mean something like a Scars of Summer-style ugly hobo, but just not the typical regular good looking womanizer and rather a very intelligent and powerful but dislikeable character (in looks and behavior - eg someone who also sexually harasses a lot of women around him because he can).
Match this with a female main character that hates such chauvinists and has a strong will and character and then let her get NTR'ed by such a person she hates. Really I would love to see a roughly similar plotline.
But...but...My name is supposed to be a slight play on words from the japanese word "Hentai". If I changed it, it wouldn't mean anything anymore^^Meanwhile I think you should really change your name N_taii ^^
By "image above the text", do you mean portraits? If so, I was kind of hesitant to have them at first, because I didn't want to force a certain character appearance on peoples' imagination, but I'm glad I added them anyway.I was really skeptical of this game at first; pixel sprite animations never really did it for me in theory. But the simple addition of images above the text really worked out well. The scenarios and their place within the larger story are *chefs kiss*. It's very rare for me to be invested in lewd games, but I'm fairly excited to see where the story goes.
I lowkey kind of wish Aywin and Zeno relationship didn't go down the corruption route, but it really makes sense considering Zeno's previous relationship and how that ended.
I made this mistake in thevery beginning of my first game, Hc1, where I added rather long maps that forced the player to walk around a lot. I got scolded, and I changed it^^ This is also the reason why I decided to make the main map kind of round, to avoid having one long horizontal map that would have players spend minutes walking from one side to the other, just to do it all over again later^^ As for the locked doors, I assume you're talking about night time? One reason I did it was to avoid having to create sleeping sprites for every characters^^The best thing is that I don't have to walk 3 hours trying to remember where is X place like other 95% of RPGM games, the fact that you just have to go to behind the mc house is just perfect, and locking the doors where there is nothing happening, more devs should just those kind of things so people stop wasting their time walking around
We'll see how it goes in the revenge ending ; )I’m still gonna hope, no matter what, that the MC goes Super Saiyan or becomes a demon. I mean, it’s cliche, but it’s a cliche I like. I still wished there was an option to kill the antagonist in the last game too, instead of Ezekiel essentially saying “understandable, have a nice day”. View attachment 1277780
Pretentious Goblin already gave a pretty complete answer, so I'll just add to it:I just finished chapter 1 and I have few questions on this game...
1)How much time do you think it will take for the dev to finish it?
2)It's as good as the first chapter?
3)Is this game somehow connected to chapter 1?
4)What is NTR mom content about?
More or less, yes. However, since there are 5 female characters in total, they all have their own reasons for falling to corruption, and the MC isn't involved in all of them.I remember playing the first game so I was wondering.
This game follows the same logic from the first game right? Focused in female corruption where the main character function is being use as a blackmail to force the female character to be corrupted right?
I really loved the start of the game, maybe some subtle scenes like the one where the old man grabs the widow boobs, the ones subtle enough that can we start seeing the characters real bad intentions. Things like that would be perfect imo, slow burns are the bestWe'll see how it goes in the revenge ending ; )
Pretentious Goblin already gave a pretty complete answer, so I'll just add to it:
1)August 10th will be the last update for the story before I start the endings. While I develop the endings, I will develop HC3 att the same time, which will result in far smaller updates for HC2 than usual, but less waiting time in-between the end of HC2 and the demo version of HC3. I don't know how long it will take me to finish all the endings, but minimum 2 months, maybe slightly more.
2)This is not my place to say that^^ However, I made the mistake to try and flesh out the story/characters too much at the beginning, thus neglecting sex scenes. So the beginning is a bit "dry" when it comes to H content, but then it picks up with almost 50 sex scenes . I'll polish the beginning and add more freeroam H events at a later date.
3)Same answer as Pretentious Goblin
4)Once again, not much more to add from the comment above ; )
I would not call it a mistake. Early sexscenes is good to show the player what they'll get and help them to get a feel for whether they may enjoy the game or not.2)This is not my place to say that^^ However, I made the mistake to try and flesh out the story/characters too much at the beginning, thus neglecting sex scenes.

Fully agree with this. NTR feels much better once you get to know the characters.I would not call it a mistake. Early sexscenes is good to show the player what they'll get and help them to get a feel for whether they may enjoy the game or not.
But your beginning here makes the setting and characters come across as much more normal and not as hyper-sexual, pornlogic driven as so often happens. The slow burn of walking around and mundanely interacting with people helps setting things up and allow us to connect with them, showing of interplay between people and their personalities without being huge text dumps (that drags down some other games). It makes the sexual acts the women are forced into stand in so much starker contrast to their normal lives (which would be lessened if the world/people was 'hypersexual') and making the corruption that much greater. It built up anticipation as we slowly saw the potential for things to go "wrong".
With all the map details, overall design/layout and all the UX work you put in I didn't feel like it dragged out or bored me.
Not sure about that, as the narrator decides how much depth to give the characters. The character described above might be stereotypical on first sight but I find turns and twists that proof you otherwise much more appealing - eg. to show how much depth such a characters can have. I must say that I found Zeno to be very stereotypical as well and did not read his dialogues a lot (cause I found them repetitive in the beginning) until I realized that there is a lot more about him. So IMO it just depends on the character traits and the story you spin around your protagonists and antagonists. The difference beeing that a character such as described above brings new and other stereotypes then the once you had until now. Actually I would really like you to overcome your preference there and try out something new. Mustn't be exactly the same as described above but please something different then the same Zeno/edwyr/ezekiel kind of archetype (with its very own stereotypes).they don't offer much in terms of story, and always end up being quite stereotypical which doesn't allow for much room during character development.
I would like it if you even go further and not only stay with a normal woman (normal just doesnt sound very interesting^^ and to be honest I really found all of the female characters in HC2 to be too normal and similar in their behavior, especially concerning how they react on the corruption they experience- eg in comparison with HC1 - and I couldnt really distinguish between them as they didnt have a lot of character) and would really like to see more different kind of women behaviors and characters in HC3. Eg. one woman having a very strong will and character beeing feministic and political active, another one beeing the naive, sweet and shy type of woman and so on.what normal women might look for in a potential partner
