Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.41.0] [Selebus]

The current composition of the Supreme Court won't overturn that particular ruling. Short of the court being expanded to add a liberal majority (which has been discussed, but will likely get stymied by a holdout Senator or two), that's not changing for a long time.

Doesn't have to be that court, the process starts all over anyway, so they would go through lower courts to get back to the supreme court. There are lower court judges who would possibly overturn the law.

I do not like Noriko. Gives me a bad vibe. Which to me, means the character has been well written. I like that I don't like her.

This game occupies way too much of my brain's idle processing, I love it.

There's love and there's dis-love,
or something.





This is great I don't know she's able to keep that posture in an anger mood, but it looks so great.

I have finished making one Fanart! I drew Ayane (although not sure it looks like Ayane)

Dude, this is perfection.

Not really, Ami has shown herself to be unstable, but not to the extent that Noriko has and it happened much faster with Noriko. Noriko being more open about it does give us some warning, especially since only the player seems to realize Ami is unstable and player Sensei does not, but her instability isn't as close to the point of boiling over. Noriko seems like one wrong move is an instant snap. Kirin is literally the only girl where feelings aren't involved, at least supposedly, so Noriko is a much bigger threat because literally the only girl safe from her finding out is Kirin. Anyone else could and probably would start a bloodbath if she found out. Though I do have to admit it would be interesting to see what happens if Ami is caught by her. It's already a compromising situation with it being both an internal family and teacher/student sexual relationship, both very big no nos even in Japan except a select few blood relations and teacher/student is definitely out completely. If a true psycho like Noriko catches them, and yes, feelings are involved in that relationship, there would be total war between those two.

As for the harem, I am very much the opposite. I tend to hide my emotions behind a somewhat emotionless facade, kind of like a kuudere, but I am not antisocial at all. It mainly appeals to me because I really want to make every girl in this particular cast of characters happy, or at least as happy as I can. That's the appeal of the game, its writing pulls the player into an emotional roller coaster and lets go about as well as a true, murder happy yandere, which is to say not at all.


I am well aware of what financial institutions do and they are within their right to do that, however, they do risk the consequences by doing so. Not everyone is just going to take crap like banning content types lying down and even those that do won't take it forever. There is always a breaking point and that point is when the strain of banning too much causes the users to jump ship. It is already happening with Patreon at a trickle, but if they go much further, that trickle will become a mighty flood. The "epic avalanche of bullshit" cannot outweigh the lack of profit coming into the company caused by listening to the "epic avalanche of bullshit" in the first place. There will come a time when it will be financially unfeasible to do so. For Patreon's sake, they better hope they make that realization before all their users jump ship.

As for the bank thing, that's why I use a service that acts as a middleman for my card, that and security. It's basically a PayPal type service. The bank only sees a payment to the service, they would actually have to trace the payment by contacting said service and getting the direct record of where the money went.

Also, someone should look into that law, it is bordering on infringement of the first amendment and, with the right judge and/or justice depending on how far the case goes, it could be overturned as unconstitutional since fiction is protected. I'm not saying it actually is unconstitutional, I'm just saying putting it through the right courts might get results against it.


None of the tags give me pause since no real people are involved, except censorship, kinetic novel, and real porn. I tend to dislike western live action porn and that means pictures as well, but JAV is a different story, especially the underground stuff that somehow escapes getting censored before distribution or the stuff that gets uncensored by a third party. In fact, the tags you listed, rape and bestiality in particular, I tend to enjoy in any form as long as it is acted or otherwise not real.


If they themselves are liberated, that is. The thing is the people who screech about drawings and 3D renders tend to either look the other way or are actively involved when real people are in danger.


That's...that's actually pretty freaking great, well done. I do see a major resemblance to the character, in fact, after pulling up one of her sprite images from my game folder, you nailed her appearance. A LITTLE dark on the eyes, hers are a bit more pale and have a lightening effect as you go down toward the bottom of the iris, or whatever the colored part is called, I forgot, but you were pretty much spot on with your work.

Yea those are valid points i just tend prefer my crazy out where i can see it. With Noriko, the MC knows she is crazy and can at least try to avoid the crazy situations. But like you said when it comes to Ami, he is clueless and i dont think would see it coming. Also i feel Noriko would be a bigger risk of self harm instead of harming others, whereas Ami i think would go ballistic and certainly harm. Not saying it's impossible that Noriko would do something like that as well, just that i find it more likely with Ami. I do agree that Noriko would be more likely to fuck up MC life in other way, such as socially by telling people about the relationships as well though to try and force him out of those relationships

And with the Harem thing, If we are talking in game then yea i am cool with a Harem. When i say i would not want a harem i mean in real life. Games are an escape and chance to do these things without the real complications of them for. Same reason that i creampie and knock every single girl when possible in these games even though in real life i am not too fond of kids.

Absolutely, she is a great character writing wise, but I definitely wouldn't want anything to do with her until she gets help.

That's the thing with crazy, you never know who all the crazy ones are. As for self harm, the biggest risk is actually Rin, Noriko is way too open with her apprehension toward sharing emotionally, but Rin has depression AND a history of self harm already. Ami would definitely go ballistic, possibly in a literal sense, and I feel Noriko would as well, igniting a love war between them. I could also see Noriko targeting player Sensei for social fuckery and/or elimination yandere style. He would more than likely blow up at her for fucking up his life and she would feel betrayed beyond any reconciliation and, if she really turns out to fit the yandere archetype, she'll eliminate him in a fit of 'if I can't have him, no one can.'

I'm not sure on a real life harem, it would be nice once out of the whole issue with favoritism, but it's kind of a social no no in certain areas. Not necessarily illegal, but socially unwelcome.

Why a water gun and not an M16 though ?

 

[El_Zane_123]

Why a water gun and not an M16 though ?

Cause unlike a certain other character she only appears to be crazy, she ain't actually. ^^
And for that other, actual deep-down batshit character, a flamethrower would probably fit better anyway.

 

[mannice431]

Does anyone know what the event with Kaori that gets glitchy is called? (The one with the chickens i think)

Also, people are saying Ayane has calmed down, but didn't Selebus imply sometime back that she might snap in the future?

(I think Selebus even posted a pic of yandere Ayane with crazy eyes and a knife sometime back, anyone remember that?)

That was just a fun picture I made as a phone wallpaper for myself

By all means feel free to include a yandere Ayane in a mindfuck segment, nothing would be better than that.

This game ticks all the boxes so far, vanilla, mindfuck and moe, very nice

I don't think it was only appearances, she seemed genuinely ready to do whatever it takes to be exclusive to player Sensei and for him to be exclusive to her, including murder. That said, in recent updates, she has been calming down rather rapidly and she is at the point where I can't see her as a threat in the same sense as I do Noriko, whose threat level is through the roof for potentially being the cause of one or more of the students mysteriously being found dead on campus or in a river, either that or in a bloody pile in a dark alley, that works too.

She is calming down, yes, and she did indeed seem to be at the point where she could have ended up exactly like in that picture Selebus did for fun at first. Now I see Noriko in that same situation and I REALLY don't like it, she creeps me out on a whole different magnitude of yikes. The yandere energy coming off of Ayane in the beginning pales in comparison to that coming off of Noriko. To put it into perspective, I'll use an example from outside the game, let's go with a DBZ reference, the original anime DBZ, not the remake or the sequels. If Ayane's beginning yandere level was at super saiyan levels, Noriko's is currently at Super Saiyan three. We're talking massive differences in how much of a threat even their respective beginning selves pose.

I don't think Anyone ever was a yandere material at all. Remember her reaction when Kirin caught her? She's all bravado, smoke and mirrors.

Random unrelated question to anyone who might know (this person may or may not be the dev): when will the dorm 9 be introduced?

v. 0.16.0

So, ~early June for the general public.

Or, in like a week if you become a patron and give Sel more money

Per the patron Discord, 16p1 (next week) is Miku, Makoto, Ami, and Kaori. We won't see Dorm 9 until 16p2.

Oh she definitely was, the Kirin thing is the catalyst for her current calming down phase, at least from what I can tell, since she started to calm immediately after, though it took some time for it to show. Kirin has been somewhat of a curve ball as far as the results of her interactions as they apply to the other girls. I honestly thought she would be found dead by now because of catching Ayane, which makes her a threat to Ayane's relationship with player Sensei due to the leverage she now possess as well as the ability to end that relationship on a whim by reporting it.

I see, so he's already been on them, nice. I don't do much Discord, so I tend to stick to the SubscribeStar for any updates and wouldn't have seen that. Great news that Miku and Kaori are progressing, can't get enough of that adorable weirdo with the giant spider on her chest and I've been itching to see where Miku will go with the way things ended last Miku update.

I recently replayed the game and gotta say Ayane routine feels like a joke, just something she does for fun. I bet she's all facade, to make it interesting and intriguing for Sensei and to cover for some of her insecurities.

The gun she carries is about the only part she's joking on considering it's a toy, though I could see potential self defense benefits considering most people don't check if a gun is real before acting like it is. Any potential threats to her safety would see her as armed and think twice. She is extremely serious about the relationship with player Sensei and extremely serious about wanting both sides of it to be exclusive. The only one that's all facade is Yumi as she is right now. She did genuinely hate player Sensei for early game events that transpired and what he did to her in them, but she's more keeping up appearances than anything at this point, a typical tsundere act.
