Ren'Py Life's Payback [v1.4] [Vinkawa]
As long as dev focuses on fleshing out the characters instead of adding 2 morbillion characters who all have the persoality of a rule34 still image I'm fine. The new character is nice since shes only one addition, so I don't mind that. Just don't overdo it with adding more character. On the other hand focus on making every character cohesive and fleshed out. I feel at some point you have to get to a route where you can pick between love and corruption, but without the scoring horseshit that tons of games to.
The tone sometimes does get kinda weird though. Very often the MC doesn't even seem to understand his own feelings regarding any of the girls and pretty much always the girls seem to set the tone of the scene rather than the MC. In some scenes the MC cares more of a character then in another sex scene he goes full dominance with drugs and what not. A good solution I find is to let the player choose instead depening whether or not they love a character or they just see them as a fuckdoll. I get that adding multiple approaches to the same scene takes even more time, but I feel its the best way. Letting the player choose what to do next is much better than doing this weird ass flowstate shit where the MC himself isn't always sure about his own goddamn feelings. Player choice in these things is also something not many devs do before and can work, considering how the writing goes.
Maybe that can be discussed, I'm sure there may be plenty of people that are fine with the MCs personality. But quite often this "dominant" MC seems sterile and domesticated in his reactions and sometimes I'm expecting him to say "I wanna marry you, let me dug the fuck out of you first into a coma and then put on the ring while I DT you" or some shit like that. I feel letting the player choose to be the good guy or go full ham with corruption and dominance may be the best approach.
Regardless, Im a proud supporter and I typed this with one hand only while playing the game.
More Laura when?

This is too much work for me. I'm already trying my best to spend hours on micro movements and minor details during the scenes to hopefully output the best animations in the porn game industry at some point.
I don't have time for some writing perfectionism. And before it's brought on the table I will not hire a writer because I want this game to be a product of my own.
You either have a VN guy with a huge "text per sex scene" ratio, or a guy hard working on the sex scenes. These are the only two options as a solo dev and I chose my direction.
You can always press H to imagine the dialogues instead of reading mine, but you will never be able to press any button to replace my top tier animations, so I made the right choice in that regard

Horrendously based dev, I burst out laughing at the F95 line in the game.
Hope you continue doing your thing!

The game is good, nice, and could be even great.
Dialogs are far away from boring and I see these references.
The only thing I wish to see ismore content a bit more world-building, while all mechanics are simple and only here to serve a plot porn part - I appreciate such a visionary in simplicity.
One of the 50 games on our beloved forum can be done with such passion. Your work with the community is well done and fits the humor you share in your game. I have huge respect for you and wish you good luck.
You, MiloHaze, ZeratGames are good examples of what F95 as a community is designed for.

I kind of fell out of love with Koikatsu style VN but, HOLY SHIT. I am so glad I gave this one a try. Story is great as far as a haram-esqe game can get and the animations through the system is Godly. Highly recommend this to anyone who needs that revenge kink without the overwhelming commitment of hours. Still WIP but well worth the wait on the updates!

Man, i just wanted to check the changelogs for this game to see how much it advanced to then get bombarded by f95zone lore, the post nut clarity hits people differently, thats just the way it goes.
Anyway instant download for me, respect for the custom animations.

Hey, the option to check the MC's stats vanishes after the intro, is that on purpose? I can't check my own stats, I started a new game but nothing changed

Yes, the stats are now located in the related female characters menu.
Grades for Elise, Strength for Laura, etc...

I strongly disagree with this. It's first game that I played where adding more characters is a good thing. Compared to games that add 10 more characters when there is little to no content for the existing girls.
In this game the girls get their fair share of love, as well as amazing animation and good models, not just some standard koikatsu models. I'm very happy with how this game is developing. Not every game needs to have an epic story to be good.

No porngame has an epic story what are you even talking about.
Theres tons of good porngames that have been in development over the years where characters have been stagnant while fleshing characters out more in more. More animations, more positions, you name it. While the quality of the animations is decent and polished. Going so far in even setting a few standards here and there I honestly don't agree with the assessment that adding more characters to be a good thing. To give you an example, making character outside of the confines of where the story began will take away form the player experience, going back to your home with everything done kinda does feel jarring in the sense that you feel like you're just doing a checklist, with no goal to be exciting about. While it makes progress feel kinda empty too. Besides all of that it also goes against the whole story remaster thing dev did.
Once you finished all the initial characters, progressing and going back to these places would feel kinda empty. Why not taking things deeper while getting into a relationship with them? After all, thats what the splash screen already suggests.
I feel fleshing out the characters first while adding new ones in a reasonable pace feels more of a realistic approach and its a good way to do worldbuilding. I'm sure Vin has a bunch of ideas considering the initial vision, so lets see where this goes.

People be botting fr. The scenes in this game are peak and I don't mean only the sex ones. I was happily laughing seeing such a choreographed fight scene just to fuck. Gave my highschool dxd vibes with the costume too.
