VN Ren'Py Karlsson's Gambit [v0.8.2B Final] [Grym Gudinna Games]

[Stan5851]

Well, I reasoned like this (in short)

We can assume a lot of things, but the best thing to do is ask the dev about it. A year ago, according to her feelings, it was
like this.

So here I agree with Maviarab and what he wrote above. Anyway, in addition to the upcoming Ep8 pt2, we have Ep8 pt3 (the final installment of the game show) waiting for us, which Tess hasn't started working on yet. And basically, the “war of all against all” won't start until episode 9+ at the earliest. That is when the first heads of serious players like the Karlsson sisters will fly. (However, it depends on our decisions, and, as Tess writes, we can save the first possible victim among the sisters if we try very hard and make certain decisions).

So, using chess terminology, I'd say we're now in the first half of the Mittelspiel, which will last (I think) at least until the end of episode 10+, after which we will be waiting for a large and extensive Endspiel (Ep/Ch 11-12+), the result of which will be ~17 different endings of the game. But, again, it all depends on Tess and how much the creative process takes her over. For example, the new update (Ep8 pt2) was supposed to be smaller, but according to her, she again didn't hold back (lucky for us) and did more scenes than planned. So time will tell.

Also, no one should be guided by the episode number .

For example, Episode 8 is divided into three parts, and as a whole I think it's as long or longer than the first 7 episodes put together.

No...12/13 chapters planned...maybe...perhaps...depends on what content is in each release. It's felxible currently and no set amount is confirmed.

Mav giving a legit answer to a stupid question? He must have gotten some good coffee today

So in short… no one is sure, but it’ll be a long time before we see the end of it… LMAO

Here in America we are celebrating Thanksgiving Day. It's simply what it sounds like; a day to give thanks. So, I am thankful to Tess for creating this wonderful story and for all the entertaining hours it has provided for me both reading it and talking about it here with good friends. I am thankful for all the friends and acquaintances I have found here (even Maviarab). I wish everyone here good health and happiness. May God bless you all.

God Bless you too man! I’m thankful for Tess and the brilliant game she made for all types of players!! And with that the community on here and on discord is Amazing!! So thank you guys for always being around!! I know I’m really the only sub player that’s active on this discussion board but yeah HAHAHA it’s great discussing things and I can’t wait to discuss even more when this latest update comes out!! (DONT ASK WHEN!!)

Spoiler: HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Definitely. Unless, of course, Tess hires new people to the team (some announcements about that, as you know, have been hanging on her Discord for a while now). But honestly, even if she does, I'm not sure it would speed up the process much. KG is Tess' brainchild, and I imagine it's a pretty intimate thing, in the sense that she'd never be willing to put the writing of dialogs (which is absolutely right) or the creation of scenes in someone else's hands..If that was Tess's main source of income, then yes, the frequency of updates would be 100% higher... she said so herself... But personally I prefer to keep everything in Tess' hands, it would be better for the game itself.

So yeah it’ll be awhile then, so who knows

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

considering that she's broken up part 3 into 2 parts, we're likely not going to even end this chapter before around this time next year.

If I'm not confused, Tess is looking for people who can professionally create animations in DAZ3D and work with light and shadow. So if such hypothetical employees are found and hired, it would certainly make a difference. I think it's more about possibly improving the quality of current in-game animations and more in-depth lighting for static renders. But if it somehow affects the speed of release of updates, I will be only glad.

This must be the aforomentioned shrinkage. Callista is certainly not going to be happy, maybe she will complain to elena.
I wonder if the shrinking will occur on all sub paths

My nature gives encourages me to admire beautiful sluts becoming more submissive, not to measure dicks with a ruler. So "no mercy for Mercy".

I saw the difference but was too busy fantasising about dominating Mercy's ass. to bother commenting on it...

Sorry...not sorry

I mean… some would say… Mercy ass is just to die for soooo…. Sub and Dom players see different uses for her

This I believe is the general shrinking of Sub Kane, but Miss Tess has talked about Kane getting a Micro pp, depending on what faction you join and what K-ranking you end up with
