Ren'Py Abandoned Joyful Days [v0.6.3.1] [Zel Dev]

[DraxisSilencer1000]

Oh no... its Lessons in Love.

Please, please that unnecessary drama with the incest and lesbian parts needs not to be imitated. That's solely the reason why LiL sucks.

What's that with the MC's name even? Its literally LiL? Where you're just Sensei? No other name allowed?

There's bugs too, I dunno how to activate the rest of the main events. Lastly, I can't seem to activate Mizuki's second event.

To get Restart you need to do all other girl's events. I guess you only have Mizuki's left, keep increasing her affection until you get it.

I've already done it, the only thing that I didn't manage to notice is that it needs to be triggered on a Saturday night. Thanks for the replies.

I feel like i've seen this one twice already, but hey, ideas are a dime a donze. Curious to see how you execute it

 

[Checkered Pangolin]

Nah bro wtf is this, you can't have an interesting plot going on. I'm trying to fap here and you're distracting me.

 

[AlBetGam]

So... this really does hit like every single point that Lessons in Love does in its intro. For those who've played more of it than I have, does it diverge as you get deeper into it or does it keep going with the strict parallels?

 

[molitar]

If sex gets added than I'll check it out.. but for now no thanks got enough non porn games to play.

As far as games heavily inspired by Lessons in Love go, I would say this is definitely a tier below something like Sensei Overnight, but it's not bad either. I enjoy the school setting, isekai formula quite a bit so I'm mostly okay with it having the predictable introduction that it has with all the standard tropes included, but I do hope the game starts to separate itself from Lessons in Love as it continues on. Like at this point, Sensei Overnight can stand alone in its own right and is a very enjoyable experience that has its own messages to convey. ReWritten seems like a generic LiL right now, but I love LiL a lot so I will see it through.

Thanks

Wouldn't it be so funny if this guy makes some changes to the story they don't like, and decides to go back and rewrite the story

 

[Zealous2907]

Those that are interested in NSFW content for the game may want to head over to the discord on the page and vote for the first girl gravure set. $5 tier on Substar required to view them. Voting ends Oct. 14th!

I found this boring and gave up. Too similar to LiL, too many fourth wall breaks, too many data dumps, the scene work is amateur at best with sprites causing characters to look too big or too small for the scene they're in only to then be swapped for in-scene models making things even more jarring. The characters are as dull as the story, sure the game is in its infancy but i gave up cause i realised i didn't give a shit about a single character, none felt remotely real. Good luck with your game, it's not for me.

This game had a name change and as a result the subscribestar link is broken, it also got a new public version recently,

on a different note I hate games that bait you into naming a character to just give them another name after, I do not play games with a named protagonist so this kind of thing really annoys me,

to be honest there should be a named protagonist tag, I also hate those games that are becoming popular lately where you are given a MC who is not actually you, they make you belive that is you but then they start going meta and honestly it just ruins the game for me, it is also supposed to be a plot twist so they dont put it in the OP,

LiL kind of started this and now it is extremely difficult to find a game in the same style but without the existential horror, so many of theese games would be much better without it, the stories are interesting and they mostly manage to be different enough to not be a complete clone but the problem remains, the horror is still there and the game is ruined for me,

anyway I just whish some games where clearer about the MC being actually not a self insert, no offence to the peaple that actually like this stuff, it just is not for me,

different peaple like different things, and they also play for different reasons, I like romance harem stuff, that could be considered boring or overdone by others but for me it is not, also games like that are much rarer than they are made out to be, especially ones where you can name the MC.

Thanks for this, you reminded me to point it out in the beginning of this thread that the person in question is their own character, not yourself. The reason for this is that I've limited what choices can be taken and will be taken in the future. If the character could be you for example, I would have made a lot more choices available. In the future, I would like to make a game that allows you to pick out your own name and along with that an abundance of choices to go along with it.

Thanks for the criticism, it's given me a better understanding on how I should be writing my characters from this point forward as I just jumped into doing this without experience whatsoever in any of the fields (writing,studio, ect) I feel like I've gotten better over the course of working on this and hope to see you giving this another chance once I manage to redo the first section of the game to a more professional level.

You and me both. I have exactly zero interest in being forced to use the inevitably stupid name devs come up with. I use the same name for ALL my games and online (unless taken) since 1994, when I was using 14.4k dial up.

 

[APTiCT]

Idk about everyone here, but my eyes aren't good enough to read the black text over black background . Android version btw.

 

[APTiCT]

Can't rate the game though, as I simply can't read anything here. But it sounds fun, so good luck!

 

[legend_shon]

good, but blue and purple jackets too colorful, you could implement uniform change rule at some point in story=)(jackets only)
