VN Ren'Py Karlsson's Gambit [v0.8.1 Part I] [Grym Gudinna Games]

[Sharpshooter890]

I'm like the anti- Maviarab

My primary save is just pure evil. If anything, I've often found myself wishing there were more inventive solutions to situations, or that Kane could one up Juliette entirely.

You want me to inject Dumbo? How about I roll him over into the bath and a laugh as he sinks? You want me to fuck Sam while people drown? Why don't we make the guy choose between his love and his sister, and make him choke the other with his bare hands or they all die? And that's just the surface of what immediately popped into my head as ideas during those scenes.

Most of the time I'm just disappointed in our blonde chihuahua's lack of creativity. I 100% get that Tess can't make a billion paths, but I do wish there was a side path similar to the Alessa secret-sub, but instead it's essentially just the Karlssons realizing that they've brought a monster into their facility. Kind of like if EvilOlivia kills that one pink haired guy at the start.

As for the gambit, and the company as a whole? I couldn't care less. Hell, if anything, I would welcome this road inevitably leading to Kane's death, as long as everything else is immolated as well.

"(...)because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn."

Damn, I really like those! I'd LOVE to see Juliette's face once she realizes that she's a nice and virtuous woman compared to Kane. That kind of Evil path could be very fun to play, sadly, however, it would seem that Tess won't be making much of 'extreme' content in the future. Or, perhaps, I misunderstood the posts.

I assume you know the background to this issue..Anyway, decision is still pending and Tess should announce it later in one of her patreon devlogs. Either way, there is no talk of cancelling the EvilDom path. And it may (or may not) affect only the content for demon/demoness flags.

 

[Maviarab]

Out of reactions so:

You know, we all joke about Zach being a whimp, but I know who he will become. The riddle of steel is the answer. He will sink to the lowest of K2s only to pull himself up by his own hair and fulfill his destiny as the Gigachad of KG, dethroning Kane in the process. Olivia, Jules, Deliliah, everyone will bow down to Zachy!

Yea but the massage had to do with ranking, the sisters were going to know regardless. If it doesn't affect princess eyes or sisbro, it shouldn't affect her relationship with Olivia too much

Hopefully...how it all currently works at least.

Well, at least such a combination of two opposites should be interesting. But I don't have (and don't plan to have) such a saves, and my KaneDom and Olivia (whether good, evil or mixed) have roughly the same moral/anti-moral compass.

I have one for the lulz....I doubt it will go anywhere though...I think it's wise for any Olivia romance saves...to be of the same alignment.

Correct. If she stops doing content...it will purely be for the Demon/Demoness/DemonessDomPath content (which up to last update, didn't actually exist anyway...just the scene to trigger the flags)...the Evil path will still exist.

Well it's hardly an issue really as there was no existing content for that path anyway, other than the one to actually trigger the flags. Can't miss something we never actually had right?

Operation sneaky Kane good/sub Olivia starts tonight. Lets go all in

Do we have an ETA for the final version of 0.8 P1?

Soon. Like in couple of days.

 

[aaasdasdasdsadasas]

wait, so the next version is going to be the final?

The final version of 0.8 Part 1, as opposed to the test version currently up here. Complete game is still a ways out.

 

[Maviarab]

For your information, it looks like Chapter 8 will be in 3 parts. We are nowhere near the end of the VN yet. Tess like most devs, releases a beta/test first, very ocassionally another version and then a 'Final chapter' version.

The final chapter version for v0.8 Part 1 was slated for release today (according to Tess on Discord) but things can happen. She is away on a working holiday next week so she desperately wants to get it out this weekend (hence why I assume she has been radio silent on Disco for the last few days).

Do we have an ETA for the final version of 0.8 P1?

I think I read on some page here that there were 10 chapters, so it is normal that the game is divided into parts from chapter 8 onwards, so that the waiting time is not so long and also that these final chapters will be full of content because they have to solve the mysteries and prepare for each of the endings.

Have I missed something...first I've heard of this (though would be logical if 9 and 10 are also split. I think there's still too much story to tell personally..however if each split update is of a similar size to this...then it could work for sure).

Yeah, if i´m not wrong i remember Tess said each part of the chapters will have the size of an individual chapter.

The truth is, after so many threads, I don't have a clue where I've read about the 10 chapters, but it was somewhere .

 

[PickerLewd]

I only have two saves so far waiting for ch.8, maybe I should have played more but other games appeared.
A good Kane in K4 (who deserved to be K5 but was scammed by Olivia) sponsored by Dominique and a Kane in K8 allied with Juliette and hosting events/shows with Kitty .

Wait..whut? Only TWO saves? Good god man....get on with it...you know there's a proposed 15 endings right? (maybe only 14 now if we lose the demon stuff). C'mon...mush mush...get to it...don't make me get Jules, Delilah and Kitty to punish you into making more saves!

That's what I recall Stan, thanks. It also seems to me, to be about right, 12 chapters and we have started 8. Far we know, the game show is taking up all of 8....9 will be the aftermath/faction stuff in full...that leaves 2 more for story/plot development and one (12) for the aftermath to be seen leading to our endings etc.

Thanks Stan, now I'm wondering where I read 10 chapters.
If it's going to be 12 chapters, we're a long way from the end , but it could also be that the split of chapter 8 into three parts was originally chapters 8, 9 and 10 .

Wait..whut? Only TWO saves? Good god man....get on with it...you know there's a proposed 15 endings right? (maybe only 14 now if we lose the demon stuff). C'mon...mush mush...get to it...don't make me get Jules, Delilah and Kitty to punish you into making more saves!

For now yes , I don't think I'll ever be able to play the K1 scenes unless I get them on video.
I only have one monitor and if I continue to play blindly I'll only see 4 paths at most, for the rest I'll have to use the guide I have on my phone.
Sanchomod is out of the question for me as my potato would explode.
Basically, while I have the game open, I play and read the guide in real time on my phone.
I hope Juliette doesn't punish me .
