Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.54.0] [Selebus]

[shmurfer]

Hello, Would anyone happen to know were I can find a few saves of LiL? I played it a very long time ago but Lost my save data. I think I left off just after the second Christmas party? Any help would be appreciated, thank you

I could recommend using text skip, unseen text and after choices on, with AutoVN out loud so if you don't hear the music change you know you're stuck on a menu. Christmas 2 starts with Wakana returning to your office to apologise after overdosing on the beach. Or if you miss it, at least during Christmas 2 you have the Customer Satisfaction Survey to auto pause on. You can then disable AutoVN in the settings menu, read the readme.

And of course get the guide mod while you're at it.

This latest playthrough I'm doing is my green run and (more to the point) the first time I've committed to Stomachache and I'm kind of curious if anybody else found it uncomfortably funny.

The goofy ass look on his face caught me off guard and it's really tickling me that his go-to move for showing her how loving and enjoyable sex could be was to double finger-blast her in the fucking throat

It's obviously a dark, horrible event and I feel bad but I've been chuckling to myself for like 20 minutes lol

It... kinda works in context and with first-time surprise. The first time I saw the event, his face made me shiver a bit, because in context, that's a predator you're seeing. But on replays, as you said, it's kinda goofy when you see it. The section after the black screen still triggers me, though, Io's face there fucked me up.

The goofy ass look on his face

Maybe a little funny in the moment, but it stops being goofy when you realise that's his "I'm gonna fuck that kid" creepy face.

The goofy ass look on his face caught me off guard and [...] I feel bad but I've been chuckling to myself for like 20 minutes lol

Yeah, I can't, sorry. I tried thinking about just seeing the screenshot without prior knowledge and finding it goofy out of context, but the subject matter is so strong that it still unnerves me.

I think that, as most things, people will feel more strongly towards certain scenes (for various personal and general things). In my case... not happy thoughts. Still one of the if not best events in LiL though (albeit one I try my best not to rewatch).

No need to apologise, my one semi-useful skill is compartmentalisation so I very high tolerance to pretty much everything - I was expecting people to disagree but I was curious.

The event itself is amazing but I won't ramble about it seriously since even in the short time I've been here I know it's been talked to death lol if I do any more new playthroughs after this I doubt they'll be green.

For me, it was a mix of awkwardness and "something funny." Awkwardness because of Akira's smile, and "something funny" because of Io's expression. I think there's only one instance in the entire game where Akira's smile strikes me as not only genuine but also pleasant, and that was with Ami.

Hey everyone, quick question. When I'm doing the dorm hangout with Rin, her hair is blonde instead of the usual black. Is this some kind of bug? I'm still relatively early in the game and there has been no explanation or even acknowledgment of this so far.

I haven't been following the game for too long compared to most but so I might be a little off but from what I gather when a character changes their hair colour/style - as a few of them have done since the beginning, including Rin - their generic dorm hangout scene is eventually changed to match, and for whatever reason this change applies to the whole game instead of just from the point they changed their hair onwards. I'm not really sure if there's an actual practical reason it works like this, though.

You'll notice the same thing if you visit check out Ami and Chika's dorm hangouts, Ami's hair is short and Chika's is black.

tl;dr she's blonde because she dyes her hair in chapter 4

 

[Thomas089]

Thank you very much, thats good to know. Guess I never did Amis and Chikas hangouts since I havent seen these changes.

No worries! Just so you know a lot of events hinge on each other with main events being locked behind certain character events having been seen, so you should try to grind your affection up with all of them fairly evenly rather than focusing on one girl.

As you're new to the game I shall now hit you with the mandatory "download the guide mod" reply and tell you that you should download the guide mod (if you haven't already).

Even if you're not too fussed about seeing every event and/or would prefer to make your own decisions in the actual events, there are a total of 35 girls in this game and a few out of the ordinary triggers for some events. It can be quite time consuming at points figuring out what you need to do next without the guide.

Long story short it saves Sel a lot of time every month when he updates all of the dorm images to have new supporter messages on the whiteboards. It's easiest to have the outfit of the chapter / when he can then be bothered to change them if they're changed mid chapter.

I am trying very hard to not give the long story.

But that means Sana is spending 2 months in the "Might have driven Sara to suicide with sadness" tier for two months.

I think I've been gone for too long to react badly to it right now, but I get why you would think I would absolutely hate Sana over this considering Sara is near the top of the list.
And yeah, I'm guessing this answers both my questions about trauma and who lands on the bottom.

Honestly, when I come back(which could be anything between months to years from now), it won't be in the same capacity as before. Tierlist will be reset if not abandoned. Fun while it lasted but a new perspective on things could be healthy.
Every time I think of that brutal scene of Nodoka, I get distressed and tears start falling... fuck. I am really not built for such deaths...

Honestly, depending on how 0.50 turns out and if there isn't another big cliffhanger there, I might take that time to catch up to everything. But no guarantees

I actually started with the Guide Mod from the beginning. Saw it in the OP, read about it and was convinced it would be a good idea to use it (trying to balance affection because of said post as well). But thank you for the recommendation anyway, of course!

Dont worry about it, I'm fine with knowing the gist of it, thanks to you as well.

You don't even owe us the big reaction post if they're part of the problem. It's just fun to see new people react to the story (Though I admit most are waiting for the ramp up to the end of CH3)


When you do come back, get the fanfest content from the OP. I think you'll enjoy a particular title screen image.

The big reactions posts are actually part of the fun. Without being able to share my reactions, I would feel alone and the fun of playing would grow stale. LIL is a bit of an exception in how I do things tho. A tierlist, up to date information about how long I've played, what day I am on and so are exclusive here. It stems from how popular LIL is, the presence of enthusiastic regulars willing to give me the time of day and "accidentally" finding out about the tierlist and decided to give it a go to show others what my stance with the characters are, who are my favorites etc.
The daily reaction spoilers however are something I do for every batch of updates I play. The reason why it's daily here is because of the sheer size of the game. I could do with posting them more often on other games too but non of them are as popular and I risk getting multiple next to each other. I recognize some may not like reading too much at the same time. A little at a time, you get the idea. Half of my comments and this account's upvotes comes from LIL... if not 3 times?

I don't think much of the game backgrounds. Just initial thoughts at most. Repetitions aren't my thing.

Ps. I'm spoiling myself by lookin at the fanfest content. I fucking died laughing when I saw Noriko and Maya going at it! Their angry expressions were getting to me.

Haven't gotten to the end of Chapter 3 yet. I've been waiting to see Touka blushing at Sensei because it's been so goddamn long — she's really good at keeping a straight face.
But the current Touka is so mature that she's giving off a weird vibe... like, a mom vibe?
The kind of girl you want to cry to after work, just bury your face in her chest and have her comfort you?
I wouldn’t even think she had feelings for Sensei if her mom hadn’t actually asked her about it during that event, ngl
