VN Ren'Py Hillside [v0.16.2 rework] [DarkBlue]

[TonyMurray]

What the point of blurring Emma ass ? is there something i dont know ? wasnt there a sexy boobs/cleavage scene with Charlotte ? it got removed ? the dev dont want to give us any content ? wtf man.. im really stunlocked

The focus is on the character in the foreground. It's usual for the background to therefore be out of focus...

 

[Darklord_1965]

And judging by the pace of the game's development, it will be finished somewhere around 2030, and that's when the first scene with Charlotte will appear.

Wow, you're optimistic.

In case anyone wants it the "unlock" is skipthomas

Not sure what it unlocks.

When unlocked, high-quality images of each Gallery achievement are copied to a "HQ Images" folder in the game directory. The first HQ Gallery image is always copied, but afterwards HQ images are copied only if the game is "unlocked". This doesn't affect game play at all.

This picture is what displays when you reach the first achievement.

called Depth of Field, you see it many AVNs, games, photos, whatever. Your phone can most likely can take pictures like that too. When you have to render stuff it's also less resource intensive that way, since only the character in focus need to be rendered in full detail.

It amazes me how many people bitch about something that is free

The war between Russia and Ukraine is free for us too; does it also amaze you when people bitch about that? Or how about rain when you're on the beach? Or about your package getting delivered to the wrong address? Or a friend forgetting about your appointment? Or how about a tv show that you downloaded that sucked ass?

Plenty of stuff that's free, but just because it's free, doesn't mean you can't bitch about the quality. Paying for something doesn't give you an exclusive right to bitch. In fact, I'd argue that a negative opinion of someone that got it for free outweighs the opinion of someone that paid for it, because they got it for free and still didn't think it was worth it.

Seriously?

We're getting Lexi rip offs now.

Whelp, i'll give it a go. Lexi seems to have gone silent again.



Clever play on Little Latin Lupe Lu there.

first of all, lexi has been abandonned, second. This is not a ripoff. This is actually a decent game with good artwork.

Dude, the post you are quoting is more then 5 years old...

Looks like a bugfix update is on the way, not sure when though.

Just wanted to update you on the issues that have been reported so far. I'm aware of them and will be fixing them.

Main issue:
- inconsistency in Suzi's attitude towards the MC in later episodes. Sorry I missed this.

Typos:
Ep 06 - Lucy at the house with Emma
- Three instances of "lu Lucy"

Ep 08 - Suzi and Emma in the hot tub
- Typo: "incre3dible"

Ep10 - Charlotte's serious talk with Kaylah
- Two instances where "Kaylah" is used instead of "model"

Ep12 - Suzi and Lucy talk at the beach
- Missing "t" in "I like he way"

Love this remark, and I completely agree with you, more comments like this should shut those "fanboys" and die hard self-righteous lot up who seem to struggle with a hero complex because they always touting this argument. Beyond what you said, its a free platform to raise your opinions and this game has indeed taken ages to progress and seems will take ages more to complete in any decent way (without simply rushing its ending)

So while I love this game and feel its created very well, its simply taking way to long for the developer to produce content in a more regular way, so much so that it even warrants replaying the game or last chapters to refresh the players memory of the last events between said updates...

If anyone wants to blast through this to get current...
Q hides quick menu
Alt + W enables walkthrough to see what points are available during choices.
Has URM in it as well (alt+m), just extract to root game folder & profit!
I use it on every game, if you get a no abc error on other games delete the walkthrough _urw.rpy & _urw.rpyc from the game folder...

so aftyer all this time, the dev thought it was a good thing screrw up old saves rewriting some scripts and doing useless adjustment to UI and little shit like this?? incredible

 

[Capt. Fubar]

Dear Dev;
Thank you for upgrading DVD collection to Blu-ray. Emma can feel the difference npw... so am I.

 

[☾♄คгφη]

Nice! Another game I'm giving up playing until the tag shows it's complete... It's one of the most frustrating things a developer can do... These postponements only prove to me that the developer lacks imagination and wants to waste more time to appear to develop the game, but in fact, to change 2-3 lines of code per month and be eable to collect payments while the time probably no longer allows him to develop the game. After 5 years of game development when everyone was waiting for Charlotte to be fucked in every position, even before that happens, he starts rebuilding the game from scratch for another 2-3 years probably, until it gets back to this point. Not to mention that I wanted to see Emma fucked and possibly some threesome or foresome with her aunt and her mother. Unfortunately, I am aware the developer probably has too strong moral principles to make some purely fantasy scenes in his game. And as other users have said, after the MC fucks Charlotte, the next update will probably end the game. What a waste...

No, if you read what actually happened, then no that wasn't it at all.

Now for the bad news: old saves won’t work.

I’m really sorry about this, I know it’s a huge pain. Unfortunately, it ended up being unavoidable. I’ll create a set of saves for anyone who doesn’t want to replay everything and make them available before v0.17 comes out.


I had hoped I could do all this without breaking old saves, but because of how the code was originally structured, that wasn’t possible. To make everything more resilient going forward, I had to restructure it, which took more time than expected.

Since saves were going to break anyway, I decided to finally switch to the latest version of Ren’Py. I’d been avoiding this for a long time because the big update from Python 2 to Python 3 caused save issues back then, so I stuck with the older version. But now we're using the latest version.

Because of this extra work, I didn’t finish everything I wanted to. I planned to improve Lucy and Kaylah’s first sex scenes. The scripts are written, but the images aren’t finished yet, so the updated scenes will be included in v0.17. I also wanted to fix the achievements but have not done so. I’ll tackle that as soon as I can.

I’ll post a more detailed changelog with the release on Sunday.

Next week, I’ll start work on v0.17 and get back to posting the usual patron rewards, including weekly progress reports and pinups. The next set of preview images will likely come the following week.

Thank you for your patience and support,
DB

It wasn't rebuilt from scratch, it is the same game, but the variables fixed....also, he didn't accept payments while that was being done either, so your theory about money hungry just went out the window.

 

[19Castiel23]

I don't understand why those who play the game for free are complaining. DB is working very hard to develop this game. He is not a "money-loving" DEV like other DEVs. He has stopped the "Patreon" payments for this rework for 4-5 months. The only solution for those who played the game for free and didn't like it is to start another game, which is available on this site.

 

[indio68]

this is some bs... why rework the game this late into its story development

to milk more...

 

[SonsOfLiberty]

to milk more...

How? Payments were off.

Game is a $1 anyway most of the time, I'm sure that he's so rich, rich I tell you!!!

 

[indio68]
