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

[Geko1711]

Getting a competent team mate in development is a great way to improve development rate. That could be hard to find someone that you trust and they have the same motivation as you.

Another great way is hardware upgrades. That can cut time off of the rendering process.

Then PaleGrass is a monster of skill! Ok he doesn't do animations, but high quality renderings, maybe better than Stoper with the Lisa game, he does a release every 2/3 months with at most a one week delay including 600/800 CG.

With the money made from the first release they could put out a decent video SK, but I think it's about the same as the one Stoper has which by the way had found as an excuse to delay the release to be broken.

No here in my opinion there are no excuses that hold! It's the commitment one can take or would have liked to take that is lacking, if you're in love with your game you'll do anything to keep going.

Never heard of that game I'm gonna check it out it looks nice from the render you showed. Different developers have different production rates. Same is true of production quality. You are always going to have that. It would be great if stoper made things faster, but nobody supports him based on rapid updates as he has never done rapid updates... It is the high quality of his updates that draw the numbers for him not how fast he is making things.

 

[AceMan07]

Do you have any idea how long it takes to build a good quality game with good content?

You need to have tons of visual art, and plenty of coding and writing to go along with it and you need to put them all together like puzzle pieces in just the right spot.

It's not a fast process. It's complex and time consuming.

Hardware limitations slow down everyone's rendering. Rendering a single render after it is posed can take hours. Then often times it goes through a photo shopping process. Posing takes a bit of time as well. That's just a single render and you are talking hours of time, and that render is not yet coded or written in. Animations are even worse.

Additionally the world doesn't stop around game development. Most developers have other jobs that they must work to pay the bills. Not to mention real life relationships as well that take time, and unfortunately we all need to sleep at some point. There are only so many hours in a day.

stoper is a hard working dev, and a bit of a perfectionist. Love the game.

You know nothing bozo look at his update patterns it has declined people doesn't care about quality much as long as there is good content an regular updates if people are paying you must do your job properly too instead of making up excuses every single time so stop defending

I guess many people don't know it and it comes out in RPG although there is a very faithful unofficial version in Ren'Py, it came out last year in July we are at the 3rd release released at the beginning of December and for February there will be the fourth, as weight has gone from 1.7 GB to 4.2 GB now thought to switch the png images that weigh too much.

I think he is more deserving to have my support than Stoper in his time.

Completely agree I love the Lisa game, the characters are very deep and real there is tons of content that doesn't feel long or boring at all. This is one of the devs I am considering supporting financially, certainly over Stoper.

the contents must correspond to the expectation, otherwise we must be satisfied, however no one comes to tell the tales of how the wait is justified by the quality because it is not like that at all.

 

[Lust&Pateron]

Are we seriously looking at a February release? Wow.

 

[TheUberstuff]

Are we seriously looking at a February release? Wow.

I doubt it will even happen in February and if it does with how little this update appears to have in it I will probably skip it and wait another 6 months+. Pretty sad/pathetic if you ask me. I will never trust another release date from this dev again.

 

[AchedCroissant]

Are we seriously looking at a February release? Wow.

I remember in another thread where they were drawing graphs and calculating that the update could probably come out on the 23rd of this month

love the arm cheer devs never mind anything in there life in think game makeing is easy and crying on a priate site lol

 

[IHATESlowburnBluBallgames]

Man recommend me some good games that fall into same or similar category as this one
Already played The Office And Anna

Have you played “Inside Jennifer”, it’s newer but last update was really good.

Played the renpy of that game. It's a nice start not that much content yet. It'll get there.

That's good of you to support an up and coming dev whose projects you enjoy. Support who you want, and don't support who you don't want. That goes for everyone. It's as easy as that.

You got understanding problem kid nobody is crying here i was just pointing out the facts get some help an then comeback with better point to the topic.

 

[BorgiaBou]

I just wanna say that stoper is doing this full time so he has no excuses of his "job" getting in his way, imo is very simple this guy is lazy and he only works when he has the mood to work, he is the kind of guy who can work 24hr without a stop but then also can take 1 week doing nothing... also he seems very pleased with what he earns from this game... so i don't care on what planet or universe you are if you do this full time and spend 8-12 hr/day/5 days per week its impposible not to release some decent content every month or every two months...

 

[yihman1]

I'm gonna be really real with you.

I am a dev, but I am a coomer too.

I am just trying to masturbate here. Was looking forward to busting a nut to Jessica again. It has been a minute and she is due. I'd like the update out here and today. That would be great. Gotta find something else to spank it to in the meantime... because that probably isn't going to happen.

I don't care if stoper takes an extra week or two if it makes it a little bit better. It's not the end of the world. There is plenty of stuff to spank it to in the mean time.

Coomer gonna coom! No need to hate on someone being little slow on updates. They will get it done when they can.

 

[SamualHand]

Stoper is slow in his updates? Is that really a news after 700 pages?
Maybe we can make Jessica a virgin? Could that be an option?

I don't even know where to begin with this. So I'll ask a simple question: where's your red line? What's the point where you'll write a game off for good? Is it seven months? Is it a ten minute playtime? Because right now it seems like you're the kind of person who will accept any excuse. Do you have a breaking point?

 

[BorgiaBou]

Haha funny you mentioned this for this dude, i mean when stoper was givin' lp a lecture about being slow...

Yeah, I canceled my pledge. This is a very promising game, but not 30+ bucks per update promising.
The author needs to revise his workflow. The Ren'Py scripting can easily be done during the rendering process, even with placeholder images if necessary. And so can optimization (of the already finished renders) and translation.

Bullshit. The guy boots about what an expert he is, then says he can't hire help, because his DAZ library is too big. You can find a coder to save you the RenPy time, you can find a writer to help you with the writing, you can find a guy to pose crowd characters or build scenes in DAZ, you can find an animator, you can find someone to do postwork...
And this crap about "people wanting cheap porn games" *using Jim Sterling's mocking voice* is pathetic. Considering how many examples of quality, well written games there are. If anything, most of the projects that get supported a lot have either quality writing and/or solid gameplay.
What a clown!

 

[Golden Trump]

The one and the only thing I am glad till now about the dev is that he hasn't given a bullshit excuse for the delay like many others do, like my PC got burnt down at the last minute or aliens invaded my home or the translator screwed up or the relative that I just created for the excuse got very ill and as far as update is concerned I already said back then that it isn't coming in Jan no matter what dev says or promises , BETA maybe on 31st . So ease up everyone and play some other game till then.

 

[gilgamesh9]

People always tend to forget that in the beginning just like every other dev stoper and all other always say and DID say, OH! once i reach a certain goal updates will be faster and better but like AWAM in has gotten slower and slower. And smaller at some times too.
