Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.53.0] [Selebus]

[DeSkel15]

Random, but It's a little odd that it seems like Tsuneyo is one of the few people that actually pays attention to Ayane:

Kind of hoping Tsuneyo mentions Ayane has been looking scared at some point. It's nice to know someone is actually paying attention to her. Even if it just so happens to be someone else possibly related to a god like Yasu.

Haha, I feel the same way - I wish I could share this with friends, I don't know if I'm shallow but I definitely feel some things about this story are profound and unique, but at the same time, it definitely wouldn't work as well if the main themes weren't as... unsavory as they are? And I feel like a good chunk of the game is a subversion of the harem porn game genre -- like, you think you can have sex with all the characters at the start, and there's definitely some shock value in there going in expecting a normal porn game, but by chapter 3 to quote the sonic kid you learn that boy oh boy do your actions indeed have consequences

Agreed with the sharing with friends part. I really would've shared this with a lot of people if Sensei wasn't literally a predator (especially in Chapter 1), not to mention the various wizard scenes. I feel like you have to read to the 3rd reset at least to truly understand this game.

The tags alone stop me from doing that, thank bob for this forum or I'd never get to discuss it.

How did you make it so that you don't have a background in the text and there's a shadow?
Is this a mod?

[er3z]

in the end of the first osako event, is that selebus talking about himself?

 

[saerav]

First off get the hell outta here, this sounds amazing. I love the chords you used and the dissonance you use in that one reoccurring melody. Second, you should try posting this in the discord; if it get popular and as long as you don't charge Sel (since he has a big thing about using free music XD) maybe he'll consider using it. Who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Third, if possible could you share the sheet music lol. I would like to play this

I'm glad people liked it because I had second thoughts about sharing it xd
You and er3z are very kind with your words, thank you.
Umm, I will rethink some parts and make the song a little better and maybe put a bit more production on the sound and rerecord it before I do anything new with it. The thought of sending it to Selebus on the off chance he likes it did cross my mind, though i'd have to make like a burner discord account, can't imagine using my real one for something like that lol.
I am not the best with sheet music, but i'll try to write something up maybe this weekend and send it your way!

He doesn't allow anyone to send him music lol, your best chance is to send it to the Discord and hope that he sees it. Or maybe make some custom Koi animation with it.

That sounds like too much effort and it probably isn't good enough anyway. I'll just keep making music for my own enjoyment I think

Some things I wanted to ask about:

He has stopped sharing them altogether afaik. Even to $100+ patrons.

Doing god's work. I'd buy them if they were still available, no idea why he's so protective of Koikatsu cards. Maybe to sell more image requests for $50+.

Ah, I see. I think I was still skipping over a lot of texts when it came to these events, I must've gotten the chronology of events wrong. Will have to read more carefully on this 2nd playthrough. Is it ever explained why Noriko doesn't tell Niki about Sensei while he's tutoring her, then?

Well this happens in (or rather right before) the very first reset, and I think that's still during a summer season, but I think she wears this jacket in quite a few of those early events and also out in the hallways when you see her, so what you say is still possible. Maybe she just wrote it off as him waking up on his own.

in particular the scene where Maya gives us a handjob

Feels weird to say 'us' for this game, i do not at all project onto Akira... no fuckin' way.

I did at first but then I grew to hate him and stopped. It's really a credit to the storytelling that I'm still invested despite not being able to relate to the mc.

Well that understandable, for the first chapter or so he was pretty much a blank slate harem MC who was just there to lure girls into sex for our gratification.

That might be what Sel intended which would be why you don't learn his name until chapter 3, by then you are supposed to see him as an actual character instead of a blank slate mc.

Yeah, after the story starts to shift towards the end of chapter 1 i struggle to see why anyone would still be projecting onto him.

Niki was NOT okay. You can see it in her letters, she was having a full blown mental breakdown over how he ghosted her. Their parents desperately wanted her to move on, and if Noriko had brought him up at all during those that period 1) Niki likely would have gone off the deep end completely, and 2) her parents likely would have pulled the plug on her tutoring.

That this also meant she'd have him all to herself also played a large part.

Once she was reuinited with him again in the classroom, I think she was more inclined to share with Niki because 1) Niki was in a much better headspace 2) Noriko was already going to have to share him with others, so the "all to herself" angle wasn't applicable anymore.

Its just a bad force of habit when discussing main characters i guess. I try to scrub it out of my posts when i accidentally do it but it slipped by that time.
