I can see that — that maybe the whole ever-rebooting "simulation" (including her mother's ghost and our weirdly inconsistent point-of-view character) is happening in her head.If anything, Ami's the one who never died
Funny cause I always thought Bingoogus was always suspicious lol but turns out he's...dunceWhich one?
The magic of renpy is that you can make a good game with zero coding skills. Sel's code is a complete mess, yesI've been so invested in renpy games I always get bamboozled whenever I play proper visual novel games with much more advanced programming
That is to say...Sel can't program for shit
I actually have my own game but I abandoned it right before pandemic (cuz of college).The magic of renpy is that you can make a good game with zero coding skills. Sel's code is a complete mess, yes
We're all actually Sel's alts, except for youBeen trying to pinpoint Sel's alt for the last couple of months, gonna lay the results here once I got it
Awww shucks, love ya too dickhead.Heh. Old habits. This isn't the only place I fucking hang out, shithead. (And I mean that lovingly.)
I will remember it.The Ami being dead and being a premonition/ghost is plausible. But if the Ami is Maya and Sensei's estranged daughter theory turns out to be true I will break into the nearest animal shelter, cover myself in peanut butter, have the the animals lick said peanut butter off my naked body record it and post on here.
Shhhhhhhhh!We're all actually Sel's alts, except for you
Awww shucks, love ya too dickhead.
I mean, it isn't even the code, exactly, though he's got so many one-shot variables — it's the whole idea of game design that he seems to have completely decided not to worry about. His whole concept of user experience and logical event progression seems to be "poke around randomly for hours, clicking on buttons until something somehow works."The magic of renpy is that you can make a good game with zero coding skills. Sel's code is a complete mess, yes
The echo chamber of psychophants (misspelling intentional) praising Sensei Quest on discord and calling it "fun" makes me even more pessimistic about the survival of the human species.That being said, his idea of engaging gameplay within the constraints of the Renpy engine is still pretty fucking dumb. I just attribute this to him being a chaotic genius of sorts, to put it mildly.
It communicates exactly what he wants it to -- his contempt for us, the player.I mean, it does make me wonder if his non-interactive writing ignores pacing and plot progression as badly as his game does. Or maybe, as others have suggested, he's just trolling us and this random walk approach is somehow an experience he thinks communicates... something.
Just skip daysI can't trigger any further events and don't know how to get out of this loop.
This is the intended experience... DEPRESSION IS FUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How do we get out of it??????????????I've played version 0.36 last und updated to 0.44 yesterday and I'm stuck now. Even the guide mod doesn't help.
Sensei is depressed at home and only wants to visit a couple of places (Archery, Koi Café, Library, Pool, Bar, Cathedral) and call a couple of people (Ayane, Kaori, Niki, Nodoka, Rin, Touka, Tsubase).
I can't trigger any further events and don't know how to get out of this loop.
thanks. I "tried" that too, but I'mJust skip days
Imagine if Sel would have ability to share money and another person would be responsible for programming, animations etc.To be fair to him, Sel is first and foremost a writer, this is clearly his strength and where his talent lies.
He would never let someone else touch his game like that. It's his game. It belongs to him. Imagine having to share credits - no way!Imagine if Sel would have ability to share money and another person would be responsible for programming, animations etc.
It would be so huge.
i don't get it:He would never let someone else touch his game like that. It's his game. It belongs to him. Imagine having to share credits - no way!
It's the pride of a creator. This came up way back when the phone was being implemented to replace the generic list of names. The more people work on something, the more ownership is diluted. You have to think from the perspective of someone spending X hours a day on something almost every day for 4 years. It's "their baby" to use generic terms. It belongs to them. Credits: GAME BY SELEBUS. Now imagine there's some collaborator contributing a lot. Now it's "Game by Selebus and (Partner)." Does it make the game better? Maybe, but now it's not GAME BY SELEBUS. The external taint would rot from within. Every glance at an asset or animation or so on made by the partner would burn and sting and drive one mad. Like, we want to think of the world as a reflection of a creator's mind space, each character a voice in their head given tulpa-like sentience through self-induced madness, whispering at all times and straining against their bonds for individual agency in this world within a world, and suddenly a partner is there? A partner is inside your own mind? A partner is playing with your children like common dolls? No! It's rot! They would need to be purged to make a pure, giggling child again.i don't get it:
It takes a lot of time for him participating in side project
It takes a lot of time for quality plot for lil
He have no time for proper animations or good sandbox options (he said it frankly). Y no he just hire a man who can help him? I dont think that it will cost a lot of money\reputation risks for him.
Well Sel did say he is hiring an art team for Nothing is Beautiful when its continued in 6'ish yearsImagine if Sel would have ability to share money and another person would be responsible for programming, animations etc.
It would be so huge.
