Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2025 4.0.37]

[MaxTheDark]

I heard the original game dead? But is the Mod version give new content as the game is open source?
so should i download this mod or Lab Rats 2 Original Abandoned game if i am playing for the First time?

If you get the modded version, you get the game bigger and expanded by a lot. I would recommend it as it's a much more fulfilling experience.

You can try the vanilla game first and then do the modded one, but I would recommend just going with the mod.

And yes, the game is considered dead. Rumour has it, so is the dev.

So this Mod Version still active? I mean even if the game is dead, we can expect more content?

Yes, the mod is being worked on. The modders avoid expanding anything that's already in the game, as the original dev might come back and change things around, but generally a lot of new content is being constantly added and improved.

Well, 'constantly' in a relative meaning anyway

Just to be sure,
As long as I downloaded this Mod Version it's fine right? No need for the original version to be installed right?
What i mean is, this is mod is just like another standalone game right?

That's how I've been using it. Installation instructions are in the first post. Just don't do what I did and click the Cheat option during character creation, you basically break all your game files. Wait until after the tutorial to mess with it.

Thank You for the Advice❤

So, modders hijacked the vanilla game for which dev decided to abandon, right?

Could I may suggest an extra line of code on
intended time shifting events.
If you get by chance the girl 'in trance' it would be nice to have the option to train her BEFORE time is shifting or right at the location after trigger 'leave' button.

I'm sure the answer is somewhere in the thread, but I cant seem to find it. In outfit manager when I click clothing items the don't stay on the mannequin. and even generating a random one, there's no button to accept the outfit and continue. fresh download and fresh game start.

This is no longer the case - Starbuck is already gearing up to start content writing for the pre-existing characters, and the various mod files are being implemented over the top of the files they originally extended in the

branch of mod development (so significant portions of Vren's old code is no longer going to be in the files when you download the modded version).

Have a look at the

- it absolutely is constant development. Tristimdorion is going to town on those updates.

In order to add the piece of clothing you'll need to hit the add button below the color selection. Once you're done, you'll hit the "Save Outfit" button to save the set. Once the outfit is saved, you can then select it to be used.

 

[Heruactic]

Use Unren and unpack the files.

I don't know how I missed that, Thank you.

There was more than one session early on where I forgot. I blame the blood being in the wrong location really.

Is this hinting at maybe a new half-sister is in the game?



Hay can one of you mods update the date for this instead of being over 4 years ago?

The mod was updated not to long ago.

You mean beside Kaya?

You mean beside Kaya?

I have not gotten far enough to know if she is related or not but there could be more out there.

Ooh i see i see. Well.. she is. I kinda gave that away already No, i don't think there are any other.

Yep, there is. Turns out MC's daddy dearest had at least one mistress... shocking I know, considering what a paragon of high morals his son grew up being. It was made clear by the reaction of the player's mother, but I think the scene got deleted when the writer reworked that story.
That said, I do hope the planned storyline about creating a cure for her mother gets some love in the near future. Reading through the placeholders shows great promise.

 

[redzadow]

Yeah, Kaya used to take InstaPics with Lily, and part of that revealed that Kaya was MC's half sister. However now it appears it's been reversed, or is/was being re-worked to be revealed at a later time.

 

[MisterDuck]

So, if I want to try this game, I download this version, right?
