VN Ren'Py Jessica O'Neil's Hard News [v0.65] [stoperArt]

[umby]

I dont care much about the hobo, if it will be in the game i will enjoy it if not i wont miss it. But the thing i dont understand is why some say it wouldnt be possible or make any sense. I mean the hobo obviously likes to spy on people and Jessica already proofed she is not against giving sexual services for information.
Besides that i quote one of Jessicas thoughts "Ugh, I should find this guy revolting, but… It's like the idea that he's repulsive is making me so damn wet!"

stoper plays with jessica's mental dilemma practically from the beginning of the adventure. If in the next update to the fundraiser there will be the usual soup with the only difference that it takes place in an event, I think this time it will be hard to digest for his most loyal fans. After all this time I still don't understand what his problem is in providing game progress percentages, EVERYONE does it and even if there are delays (it can happen) at least this way you can support the creator much better. It is my thought I hope this post is not unjustly deleted like the previous one.

I think a progress bar is a bit meaningless, especially as Stoper is quite into emergent scenes rather than hard storyboarding. More development updates would be good though, August was about once a week, then September had only 1 at the end.

I state that I am convinced that the update for late October or early November will never come out, much more likely the end of November in my opinion. In any case I don't understand where the problem is in providing a percentage of work progress. In the same way I don't understand where the problem is in providing a render of the game for month or even two, I'm not saying to do spoilers but more than anything else that can leave the doubt about what can happen does not seem complicated to do. Also let's face it, although I have a great respect for this creator, his updates are very short compared to the average of the other games so I see no reason to keep so many secrets for about 4 months. Always my thought.

having a progress bar on the patreon page could avoid prompts like: when does the update come out?

Well some games have that (we all know those games) and still no update comes out even if the bar is stuck at 99%

Actually it doesn't.We have at least 100 games with a progress bar but the question"When is the update?" is still coming each day(or even each hour for some titles).

What I mean is that Stoper likely does not know what percentage of work progress he is at, he doesn't plan scenes meticulously before hand, he tends to just see how it feels at the time of working on it.
I agree more updates would be good, but it isn't possible to provide a concrete answer for how much is done because he doesn't know.

in this regard, I advised him to release small contents even once a week or a month, an example? Making a single scene and releasing it without focusing on anything else would serve to mask its "slowness" and to prevent it from getting too wrapped up in the whole update story. I advised him this because summing up he finds himself making an update after 4 months including postponements and delays where 200 renderings are objectively too few to justify the wait. Of course I speak as a supporter with high figures, it is obvious that if you do not pay for his support, every timing is fine.

it will be a small set but for $ 10 its not worth it

Guys when are we expecting the nexr update?

Guys when are we expecting the nexr update?

my guess is late november

 

[Bolero]

I do not think we will see an update in the next 30 days. So maybe in the second half of November, but i am just guessing.
Man i need me some Jessica fix, i would love it if mister stoper surprises us and releases it sooner. But as we all know perfection takes time.

unfortunately I also think that the update will be at the end of November, I also want to venture that there will be only one scene in this update, maybe with a couple or three choices but I'm sure there will be only the fundraising event. I know it's a pessimistic prediction, however it would be foolish not to give much space to this scene.

 

[Bolero]

I think there will be more scenes, and not just a scene at the fundraiser, but if there will be only one scene, than make it big.
I mean it has a big potential to have lots of interesting situations at the fundraiser, will be fun to see what stoper makes of it. Will probably have some different choices based on what you have chosen when Jessica had the last meeting with the major, and had those 3 choices.

Just found this game.
Its OK I suppose.
Half the game is skirting Conner and the other half is going to lunch.
So that's nice.
Kinda slow burn. Occasionally it feels like real time menutia.

The lunch part is spot on

Hey, all.

Last time I shared a wallpaper with Laura, but I thought she could use a company. So here's Jessica as well
I'm moving through the next update for the game with the pace of a tired snail. But it's coming along. I decided to dedicate the time to the fundraising event, so the update will end after it, no Friday content in it.

I probably won't finish it by the end of this month, so the beginning of November should be the likely release window. Will give you more info as soon as I see the end in sight.

Hm, nothing else to say at the moment. Back to work.

Stay safe, and thanks for the support.
