Ren'Py Abandoned Hero's Harem Guild [v0.1.2.3b Public] [Komisari]

[Mark Macabre]

I love the game, komisari.
But dude. You're procrastinating way too much, relying on people to pay you on patreon in order stay afloat.

Get your big boi pants on again, and get back to how you used to update this game.
You really have a gem here that people love, so please dont do a Yandere Sim.

I've followed your game, almost from day one. The story is captivating, the characters are lively and the world is made so well.
But through the years, you've become more distant from the game, and even the people that follow this gem of a game.

You can still revive this and bring it back in the top 10 on F95, Itch and more. But you gotta get serious again, you've fallen off Hard.

I know i'm being a bit harsh, but you need to know how the community views this game, and your effort on it.

I mean, we waited almost 2 years for a halloween update...

I have to ask what's the music for the shino bar scene its...so sweet.

 

[Komisari]

I have to ask what's the music for the shino bar scene its...so sweet.

It's Shino's theme, created for the game!
Expect more original music for most scenes, I will probably upload them on youtube after the update!
The song is called Wet Butterfly, created by ALKA.

Still getting the following error when I try to run on the Mac:

I think it's been over a year since I last looked here.
I take it the do-over of the prologue has been finished.
Would my assumption be realistic that we can expect chapter one within the next 2 yearsor so?
Of course I'm aware there can be no guarantees, but I'll try not to put too much time between my re-playthrough and the first actual chapter.

gta 6 or new update ??? lets see

Out in 2 years, oh boy. Just image how long its going take for Chapter 3 to get here (if Ch.2 even it gets here). Komi is either insane or clueless or both to commit to an outrageously long and ambitious project while refusing help.

 

[UnDeaD_CyBorG]

Well, people are free to have hobbies. Not every project is started just to be finished.
Though I like to keep somewhat realistic expectations.

 

[swdefert]

the auto function should also advance the "arrow" thing during the scenes, it gets kinda annoying

Mmm... I thought I already did that, I will add it to the to-do list and do it in the next update!

I'm not refusing help, please, read previous comments.

I wouldn't have made that comment if I didn't read those comments.

Oh well.

This is the embodiment of the "WEG version 0.0.0.0.1 4 years in dev pls sub to patreon" meme.
Talk about confused development this shit drags so much ass.

The guild management is irrelevant there is no reason to use it cause you gain almost nothing and its annoying to remove girls before progressing with them again.
The fishing/collecting "minigames" give you jack shit and become obsolete the second you can go into the mines.
This is no game its just the default "Talk to girl until bar full and then go to place at 1 of 4 time zones for event, repeat" uhg.
Just its missing all the QoL features that make that kind of stuff bearable.
Basic functionality like seeing where girls are and quick navigation to your bed are bought upgrades.
Why can you only pin 5 girls to the sidebar? why? Do enjoy making things worse for no reason?
What is up with the "wait 2 days" to reveal the event every time? You do realise that's just going to make me click the bed twice to skip it?

Please just make this a full on VN and stop pretending its a game when everything that isn't character dialogue only exists to waste my time.
This "game" is 90% padding it starts off with heavy grind and quickly devolves into just sleeping and spam talking to girls to get to their events for like an hour straight.
The longer this has been in development the more meandering it has become.
I don't want to see cutscenes that are literally just regular scenes but you cant control them.
I don't want to see fight scenes that I as the player never have any influence over.
I don't wanna see characters crying and hugging each other in a heartfelt reunion.
And stop showing us the fucking MCs face. Is he modelled after the dev and this is some NTR by proxy shit??
Why the hell is he an autonomous character anyway??

This a koikatsu game so the dev could shit out 30 different sex scenes all around the house in an hour.
Different positions, character outfits and scenes that are repeatable, that's the kind of shit people want.
Not drama about demons in generic 5 inhabitant fantasy town b located inside a bubble disconnected from all reality and world building.
Who the fuck reads or cares about the story anyway? If I want to read good fantasy I'm grabbing a book not a fucking WEG.
The story is supposed to be a vehicle for the porn but here the porn just exists to bait you into reading a shitty vn.
Who knows maybe we would already be at chapter 3 if the dev focused on what people actually want and expect: A game about managing and fucking a fantasy guild full of cute girls.

I mean realistically why would you actually add anything of value when you make 6k a month just doing nothing?
This sort of yandere simulator tier project is why patreon shouldn't allow monthly charges on videogames.
This is a shit game and an even worse visual novel and it only took what 4 years?
Hilarious looking at my 1.5 year old review where I talk about this game having no content and nothing has changed since.
4.5/5 game on f95 everybody.

Rant over good night.

This game might not be for you.

The game might not be for you, I'm sorry.
There are lots of others good games that have exactly what you want.

In this specific case, I'm trying to do something different and/or unique, in a way!

But thanks for trying it out, anyway!

Have you, actually, played Snowy Update? Because your description here fits to this.
Can't say anything about shitting out elapsed time though.

Please just make this a full on VN and stop pretending its a game

Ugh, you are wrong here. If dev decided to make a game then they have a full right to this.
Though quality of execution is a completely different matter

 

[doomngloom]

I tried using the search, but didn't find anything. so anyone know a way to skip the time consuming intros when you start up the game, so I can just get to the main menu fast? the first couple times or so you run it, it makes sense to have them, but after that they just feel tedious to me, and make me say "let me play already".

 

[Suee]

I had some busy days out of the computer, will resume literally today!

Any updates? The Trello page seems to have stalled, but I just assumed you were working in the background and just forgot to update it.
