Ren'Py Life as an Innocent Waitress [v0.2.1] [Frisson Studios]

[Asmodeus88]

I am still seeing some nothing options when they are supposed to grope her, like, you expect an spank and get a nothing burger, also believe the game gives way less random spanking, I am mostly seing the pinch one but I suppose can be rng, also when Angel bends to be groped in the table the game skips it (I believe thats intended) but you dont get so see her ass, a real tragedy if you ask me.

 

[Panzergott1]

Solid update and like the additions. I just wonder what updates will look like going forward because while any focus on the Bar is great it feels a bit odd that 2 characters in the home basicly dont exist still.

That and repeating whats been said about the Reputation/Integrity. It makes sense she just stops even bothering to acknowledge the harrassment but from a gameplay perspective I wonder what the plan is.

But man the scenes are great and love the new outfit.

 

[mark_hopkiss]

so 6 months later we get the same game you have to regrind cause saves dont work and 1 outfit?

Hi Dev,
Love the game so far, guy in the train edging MC to ask her name was surprisingly hot, though hopefully in the future MC also gives back.
For the bar though, could we have a little variety in people we have scenes with? Older man is fine if there is variety but at this point it's only the older men licking me face.

Suggestions:

• Business man willing to give big tip if increasingly erotic suggestions.
• Some guys in their mid 20's celebrating and trying to get MC to give them a treat with some flirting and alcohol.
  Maybe starts with asking for a kiss for Birthday boy, building up to flashing and more later.
• People playing poker at a table, and she might bet the tip they would give if she can guess who wins.
  Double tip from them if correct, but if she loses no tip... unless she does a little request which can ofc grow in kinkiness and maybe even get double anyway if she does something erotic.
• Some guys from her school recognize her, and to keep silent she needs to entertain them. With perhaps the option to kick them out instead but have a more stressful day at school tomorrow.

These could all begin innocent and grow slowly but give some variety in who we interact with, because the not very attractive old men (I fully understand other people might like) seem to border on abusive instead of hot.
Would love some scenes where MC could even be interested in flirting back a bit. And because variety is never bad.

Don't mean to sound nitpicky because I like how the game plays, and I understand we're still very early in development. But just hope we don't focus on only the old men.

Keep up the amazing work, will support ^^

I agree with all of these.

I just finished playing this and I wish to give some feedback upon it

I do like the art, personally. I don't know if it was created with Honey Select, but I found it to be nice enough to enjoy it

Story so far was simple enough, there was a dispute of power and woman ended up dying for the most part and society is going back to normal now. It got me interested, as well as the gameplay which promised slow corruption

And speaking of corruption, it did deliver, but I do have to say the grinding needs a bit of balancing at the moment. I find the fact that you don't really get enough money when doing your bartender job a bit of an issue. You are expected, if I recall correctly, to give your landlord 400$ bucks every.. 14 days? Something like that, and once you give him the first payment, you are expected to give him 600, and I'm assuming it's going to raise even more at the time. Early game, it's more or less okay, if you spend the most amount of time you possibly can during the bartender job flirting and getting groped by clients and/or doing cleaning and getting paid by your landlord, but as the game goes on and you need to start buying a better mobile phone, a better mattress to sleep, a safe eventually.. you won't really have enough money to cover all of those expenses while still being able to pay your landlord. And there's also the fact that you will eventually break the bar's beer thingy, which will cause the MC's boss to take away a sum of money to cover for that expense.

To solve this, perhaps there could be different events during the bartender job that the player can do that can raise the players disinhibition or exhibitionism and would gain them more money, such as the player willingly sitting on someone's lap and as their disinhibition grows they can grow more bold, jerking off the clients, giving them a blowjob under the table, etc. If the MC is stressed enough, she might find herself having to do it anyways because she can't deal with the situation in a logical manner, which would add a bit more variety to the matter and the situation can maybe develop differently than if the player does it in a consensual manner. Perhaps your landlord can make you clean different different rooms, such as Kev and Ben's room (which are my favorite characters so far), or some of the other boys.. for an increased sum of money, and perhaps there could be events in such occasions that you can discover and/or purposefully trigger if your character feels comfortable enough walking around the house in underwear, for example. Or Willy's room, which from what we saw is a bit of a mess, and maybe we can discover more things that Willy might've stolen from the character other than their bra. Or maybe, depending on how much cleanliness skill points you have, you can maybe demand more money off of cleaning, could be a good idea for immersion purposes, make you feel like you actually have a say in the character's life

I also agree with one of the comments someone mentioned about adding more variety to the bartender scenes, in terms of characters. It is true that, at the moment, there are a lot of old characters attending the bar and I would very much appreciate it if we saw characters from different age ranges, such as characters that are more around the age of the protagonist, slightly older ones, more mature ones, etc. That would add some extra variety to the game and keep the events fresh

I won't say much about the skill points/sex talents, since I'm assuming there will be more ways to gain those as the game gets further developed, other than pointing out that some of the sex skills such as Being touched didn't seem to count, no matter how many times you got groped and there's also the event where the landlord forces the character to look at him while he's on his underwear, or the various bathroom events where you can watch others pee while didn't count towards the Seeing Men sexual records tab.

All in all though, I enjoyed what we had so far, I even managed to get Kev to cum on the MC's tits during one of his nightly visits, though I didn't understand very well how the mini-game works which was pretty fun. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for this game and thanks to the developer for their hard work

Grinding to 300 Exhibition takes some time, but atleast it has some payoff.

A really nice update. Good amount of content.

The bar parts are nice. The new uniform especially.
Just unfortunate that she cant take that underwear home to get rid of her usual underwear.
A suggestion for the bar: Pls add more younger men (18-25) as customers. Only having the old folks there is getting old real fast

The subway was not as good as expected. Most annoying part however is the repetition as soon as you reached the end of the path. It'll always recycle the same animation.

The photo stuff was nice until the "blackmail" stuff came into play. Personally I don't like blackmail, just having "insane" fans sending her gifts via the app could've been better. Otherwise the new poses are

The home stuff:

• The cleaning improvement was barely noticeable to me. My first skillpoints will still go into this to get it atleast to lvl 3.
• Night visits had nice additions, however it seems to be plagued by the same problem as the subway: at the end the same animation gets reused all the time. Previously it was better with him having options to jerk off on her in 3 positions.
• "Landlord" path. Not my kind of thing, especially if you consider what's implied here.
• The new skill are nice. Besides the cleaning skill, the waitress skill is rather important to get quickly.
  You should however add a sign, that the lvl 5 need 2 skillpoints.

Some minor things come to mind:

• Considering MC is 19 years old: Did she grow up in a monastery? Nothing against a clueless girl, but the way she behaves is rather extreme.
• I hope the college will have some role in the future: We don't know what the MC is learning there and that the college also works on weekends also makes little sense.
• Some of the "Thoughts" need to be looked at, especially the wording. One time it says that MC is fine with her boobs being seen, yet she still immediately covers them in the bar.
• The safes somehow make no sense to me. Tbh, if I would wanna steal something and had to unlock a safe for that, I wouldn't take less, but even more to punish her to purchase such a thing. Safes could rather decrease the times money is stolen and the premium one should prevent it entirely.
• I hope you add more thing for the phone. Buying the top one just for it to double the online revenue is not worth it.
• UI: adding small buttons in the rooms to enter the rooms next to them would be nice. Always exiting to the map to change rooms get old fast.
• While properly a huge amount of work, adding some variety of clothes would be appreciated.

 

[TheUberstuff]

That's not the issue. If i want to make rent that week, let me make rent that week. Don't have me come home to have the game cheekily inform me i lost a couple days of wages and pretend it's doing me a favor just because there's content involved. It's my choice when and where to engage with it.

First off, I haven't had trouble paying rent. 2nd if you hate the game so much stop playing it. The game is what it is. I for one think its one of the best on the site. Would I change some things? Yeah there are some things I would change but the positives far out way the negatives in the game so I leave it alone. I could be a prissy little B and demand everything I want to make it a perfect game but I am not like you... sorry.

I will rephrase, if you have something constructive to say like most of the good people posting on the forum have then by all means but having an attitude makes me want to have an attitude right back when you are rude to probably the best devs on this site or at least in the top 5. Be respectful, disrespectful people get disrespect from me.

 

[dd3dash]

How do get the dropped beer scene, I never got it when grinding all the way up to 300 exhib.

dont use the Wait button, instead move around the tables so you run out of energy
with near zero energy it triggers pretty often

 

[dd3dash]

I haven't had trouble paying rent.

I bought a mattress and a safe without having to go in debt. Still did tell the landlord I didnt have mony tho

 

[Flamersx]

I'm going to give you a chance

You should copypaste this to reviews and give it however many stars you think it deserves. Well put post either way!
And I agree on much of it. The college should start to play a role eventually, where she might get blackmailed or coerced into giving students blowjobs or strip for them not to tell others about her photos or job or whatever, and you have to balance it with going to classes etc.

Fantastic update Frisson_Studios

I've completed all the content there is, and here are my long train of genuine feedback when compared to 0.1.0:

1. Kev's night visits and the bar events singlehandedly make this update worthwhile.

2. The AI drops the facade a lot. In 0.1.0, I like that it maintained this AI-like verbatim, so it doesn't feel like a human pretending to be an AI (even though it clearly is) and answering Angels' questions or replies, but in this update, the dialogue for the AI drops the ball, and it feels like a human is directly replying to Angel.

It feels more like a chatbot than an AI, if that makes sense. I really like the revelation that the AI could be watching and always listening.

3. The introduction to blackmail finally made me think that the game was ready to explore a slightly darker side of content such as coercion, but the scene immediately throws cold water on “blackmail” by making it consensual and agreed by both parties. It would've been more fun if the underlying narrative that someone out there already knew Angels' real identity and could leak her information to the college, and already knew her address too, would've been much more powerful.

It would've played on the infamy mechanic, where if Angel refuses constantly, more of her pictures get leaked, leading to her infamy rising at the College and she's harassed to a greater extent, as the guys start suspecting that it might be her. If the pictures leaked at home, Kev would've recognized her moles, making the night visits even more fun and erotic.

3. The use of the word ‘girls’ while referring to breasts gets old way too quickly. I don't mind the metaphor of flower as that actually makes sense since Angel is a virgin and yet to be deflowered... but the colloquial for breasts gets too repetitive. Add some synonyms to the pool like chest, twins, cherries, jugs, or Tetas.

4. The subway events were the most disappointing and lacking. I didn't feel like there was anything new. Aside from the first kiss stolen by a molester (which was hot), there is one instance of a unique event where the Molester asks for her name and pulls up her top and gives her an orgasm... but that's about it. I wish there were some animation when the first kiss happened, as its very dialogue heavy, but the image stays static throughout.

5. On the same topic, I really like the first kiss mechanic. I hope the game keeps track of all the Angel's firsts in a similar manner. The old men at the bar asked about Angel's first which was surprising, but it was a bit jarring to read “Gentleman Train Molester” as that is just broken English.

This dialogue could be changed to ‘It was with... with a... Train Molester... but he was a Gentleman’ and replace Gentleman with any future varieties that are planned.

6. Cleaning is much better, although in the bathroom, it's still proving difficult to find the spots behind those white tiles and a semi-transparent pale pink stain that could be anywhere on the screen.

7. All the Secret Desires events were 10/10. I really hope we see the College location soon as hinted several times.

I agree with many of these, except the following:

3. I personally like how the 'blackmail' is approached here as those of us who aren't necessarily into this are given a way out of it. Your recommendation on the infamy mechanic is just far too overused imo, and defeats all purpose of "giving players' agency/control" that many voiced.

4. Its not that disappointing. It's clear the direction was to focus on this less for this update and if anything this was a bonus.

 

[tetrayrok]

Yeah, speaking from 0.1 it's a pain the first few times until you upgrade it by studying at the comp. You get both less stains, and the stains themselves are way bigger and more visible. I think at 5 (the cap) you get like 2 massive stains and you're done in that room.



Said this before, but please let me catch them in the act so i can suplex them to the downstairs neighbors and yell at the landlord to keep his spawn on a leash. I'm a patient person, but that is -100 relationship points right there. Or alternatively, have me set up a small spycam and then tell the landlord i'm deducting the money they stole off the rent he's owed as i present the footage on rent day.

You know a game is good when it invokes these kind of emotions out of a person...

 

[That other person]

Alright... after playing this update I can say that, despite a few flaws, which are understandable due to the game's early state, this game continues to be absolutely amazing.

I didn't actually get any horrible issue with the game, nothing that made me want to actually complain. That said, here's a few things I would like the dev to look at.

THE BAD!

1- After doing the waitressing a lot I eventually started skipping plenty of dialogue that was not new, that made the game a little stuttery? So maybe that was just my fault for going so fast, but yeah. It went back to normal after I reloaded and it wasn't a horrible game breaking issue, but well that happens.

2- Animations should either be randomized or you get to choose what happens. I'm talking about night visit and the train groping content. Once you reach the end of it it just repeats the same thing over and over again, and as good as it is, without a gallery or anything, it gets stuck on the last event, which is sad.

3- There is this weird issue where if you are about to get groped and you choose "let him" there's a chance of nothing happening. I changed to "no dodging" afterwards and that seemed to fix it, but yeah, that option is a little broken that way.

4- Old saves don't work. Hopefully the next update won't have us re-grind. Sad, but it happesn I guess.

THE GOOD!

1-It's fucking good! The new content is amazing, very nice stuff all over the place. Love me a good slowburn. The new outfit is amazing and, despite having to re-grind, I had not played the game since the first post so it was not all bad and very worth it. Also the bar reputation going up when customers are happy is great because it doesn't punish the player for perving around.

2- There's no 2, the game is amazing and I don't need more numbers! Seriously. The update was good and the devs are still awesome.

SUGGESTIONS!

1- Some degree of variation between animations when Angel is drunk or aroused, or has low energy. Maybe just the the first two.

2- Alcohol. It should affect more of the gameplay and not go down so easily. Maybe add like... some "coffee" option to the bar or something that works to get it down faster but takes a turn. It would make the skill actually useful too as I never had much issue with it.

3- Events when waitressing. Birthdays, a depressed man, a handsome fella, a lost kid, a kid trying to sneak in and drink and it's up to you if to allow it or not, a bunch of guys celebrating a bachelor party that insist on you "treating" their friend, a wealthy moron (or not really an ass, your choice), clients wanting to take you to the bathroom for some solo time. There's really a lot you can do with this and it can still have a somewhat slow progression as you have done. Please don't miss that opportunity as it would be just so good to have this kind of variety.

4- Angel only takes the train, but you can also have her go on a bus, and also even have a guy in the taxi eventually notices her and make a move. Transport should also have events as above, and some random passengers could even recognize Angel from the bar. With so many events you really would have to add a skip and randomize the animations for sure so it doesn't become annoying.

5- The guys in the house should definitely help you with the videos and pictures at some point and of course they should want to shower with you and sleep in your bed. You can charm them into not stealing your money maybe? They could also show up at the bar or in the transport. I don't know, there's plenty of meat still to this game.

6- You just know there has to be events when cleaning the house too, right? I really don't need to say more.

THOUGHTS!

Game is awesome right now, definitely worth it. I don't want to add more to the list as there's still a long way to a full game so the dev may already have many of these ideas in mind. I also don't want to make an entire wiki entry in here. But yeah this is one of those games that will get a proper review and comment from me during every update.

 

[jack_hollow_boy]

Cool, was looking forward for a new update for this one!

 

[johnie82]

anyone knows any similar games with this art style?

https://f95zone.to/threads/coming-of-age-v3-3-crazybat.1794/

 

[Synec12]

After playing the latest update and I gotta say — this is a really solid one.

Some highlights for me:

The new skill leveling system is a great touch. Makes the daily grind smoother and more rewarding.

The new bar outfit is hot af

The night visit scene? Absolutely on point.

That new scene sitting with the old guys is spicy and immersive. Would be cool to see more variety there (different types of customers, random events, etc.)

Here are some of my suggestions:

Expand the groping scene with the old patron. Maybe have him grope her pussy while asking her to clean the table or something more daring over time.

Definitely need some roommate events while cleaning the house. Also, a maid outfit would be a great addition, especially since the landlord already hinted at it.

Would love to see the college setting expanded – feels like there’s a lot of untapped potential there.

Since Kev made it clear he prefers a shaved pussy, why not add a pubic hair system?
Let it grow gradually over days, allow trimming or shaving during bath time, or have a toggle to disable it for those who prefer it smooth all the time.
Could be a fun little system and might even trigger different reactions from Kev depending on her grooming

This game is definitely one of the best AVNs I’ve played on here. Honestly, for a game still in early development, this is already something special.
Didn’t expect to get this hooked on a slow-burn, grind-style corruption sim — but here I am.
Really hoping Frission_Studios keeps the momentum going and gets all the support they deserve.
Big respect.

 

[Ayymao]

An update in 3 months is impressive, but I can't help it but feel like this is going to be yet another "realistic" corruption game with HS2/Daz3D renders that takes forever to get anywhere and is more likely to be abandoned than finished

 

[Horny Little Brother]

@Frisson_Studios great idea, it would be great if I could be Kevin and decide where and how to touch Angel's body.

even if there was a correct order for this: first step caress her belly, 2- caress her arms, 3- kiss the girl, 5..6..7.. kiss the girl again 8..9..10 kiss again?

Angel losing her virginity to her brother while she is sleeping would be very hot but I think it would be a bit easy.
After getting her used to anal sex by fingering her instead of vaginal sex, fucking the girl in the ass while she is sleeping and then telling Ben about what happened and having the twins join the night visits together...

my mind is very confused there is so much potential


in addition to all this there is not a single update about the game on the subscribestar account dude

i am your supporter but i am downloading the game from f95 please show interest in the sstar account i wrote a message to you from there i guess you didn't read that either
