VN Ren'Py Life Is Vanilla [0.4.1] [Liv Productions]

[LifeIsVanilla]

Save system is broken. The map only remembers the last stage when reloading an older save. Restarting the game doesn't help either.
Maps itself is just as broken, locations like Home and College start giving errors.
And after the scene with Hanna at her home I cannot progress further.

And first time player, but I don't understand the point? Just had the beach date with Anna and Rebecca that came out of left field? It was right after the prologue, there was zero buildup for it. Like, who are these girls, some introduction would be nice. Although based on the ending of that date it doesn't seem to matter. Narrator dude felt it needed to tell Anna and mc had crazy monkey sex (which we don't see), and then somehow Rebecca and mc had crazy monkey sex (which we don't see), and then there was some sharing (which we don't see) until it fizzled out. ..Ok? Show, don't tell, dumdum. Don't need an epilogue after one date, it's meaningless.
The tutor/date with Karine was also available right after the prologue with zero buildup.

Are these scene even supposed to happen right after the prologue (I am assuming here the prologue ends when the map becomes available)? Is the questing system game just broken?

Edit: starting from the beginning is definitely borked. Starting with the bookmark after the prologue everything seems to trigger ok.

There is a 99.9% chance that I might have borked the code for the game to start from the beginning then.
I will review the code and see what I have done wrong, because that's definitely the story I want the player to follow, all characters that appear should have a proper introduction to tell the entire narrative.

This is my first game, with close to 0 code experience, and from the version 0.3 to 0.4 I had to make many changes on the variables at the end of each scene that triggers what comes next, so that definitely broke game saves, but it should have not affected a new game starting.

So thank you for letting me know jaques, once I work through the changes I'll post an update around here.

Got MILF?

MILF BODY = YES
REAL MILF = NO

Since the game is based on stories from my past, I never got lucky with any MILF, unless any of the women had a child without me knowing

It is going to be linear, because I'm just recreating stories that happened with me over the years, and since I'm not P.Diddy the game is vanilla .

The entire script of the game is already written, what I might do in the end is then create alternative scenarios to give more player choices. For now, you can choose the route, but it leads to the same destiny per say, there are some minor decisions points that lock and unlock some scenes, but it is linear at the moment.

Just to clarify the destiny ending, does that include the girl you end up with.

I understand a destined story ending.

But, have you have already decided which girl we will end up living happily ever after with?

Or we can choose who that girl is?

The one in this story will not be a choice I'm afraid, it will be the end of "this" story, it will be a person that complements the main character by having qualities from all the other girls he meet, while thinking like him in many aspects, like an encounter of 2 matching souls.

I do have a second story in the works, but I want to start and finish this game, as it is the first one I'm making, so there is a lot of learning.
The second game I will move to DAZ 3d for realistic renders and it is where I will go wild with the story, allowing more choices that have a real impact in the story, it will not be a continuation of the first game though.
These are all in my plans, but the second game should start only next year, because I still have a lot to finish in this story.

That's cool. Thanks for clarifying and that's all perfectly understandable.

I prefer to make my own choice, and I play for the romance, so I might wait until you get a bit further along to see which girl you have chosen for the MC and whether it would work for me, before I start getting into it. If it ends up being someone I don't like, that would just kill it for me.

Thanks again, and best of luck with it.

will you add pregnancy to the game?

 

[LifeIsVanilla]

will you add pregnancy to the game?

I'm afraid not, the relationships that happen in this game are a bit more casual, and none end up in pregnancy.

 

[MagicMan753]

Dang, after reading the comments this is a letdown and I guess I wasted my time. Should probably just list this as kinetic since we will be forced a girl in the end, where we get no choice of who apparently.

I just wanted my Hanna romance, shame. Had potential, but just a waste of time kinetic novel.

Ahh... okay. Appreciate the answer dude. Seems like you're making this AVN more for yourself then.

Anyway, good luck.
