Ren'Py Life's Payback [v2.2.1] [Vinkawa]

[Aetpio]

Fuck updates. Im here for changelogs now.

 

[Leo D. Marstone]

Just to put in my two cents... Pregnancy does not need to be the end of anything. A certain ethnic group in my country keeps them popping just to enjoy state benefits. In a context where financial aid is to be chieved through an offspring (as is the case here) it makes sense. The more they get, the more chances for easy money.

Yeah....don't bring IRL reasons into my pregnancy fetish.


I do agree however that pregnancy doesn't necessarily need to be the end of a game. I mean if it continues after this fuck yeah xD

But the be honest a game need to be build around pregnancy for it to work in the middle of it for example. Hence many opt to let games end with it and Life's Payback is definitely not build around it.

On a side note I do have these "groups" in my country as well and it is in my best interest to keep my honest opinion about them to myself.

I don't know why people are complaining about needing a new save. The game is less grindy that it was since the rework. Also, the missing animations have been replaced by better if not the same animations just tweaked differently.

We're also getting frequent quality updates. What more can you ask for? Some games out there don't even get updates for months or years! and all of this we are getting for free.

Anyways, thanks for the update. Fuck them morons for complaining.

 

[Lmaonez]

What game is this made with?

 

[Vinkawa]

Lmao, is that difficult to say?...

Koikatsu

 

[Pyroboros]

That patchnotes rant just made my day XD. Totally agree keep up the good work.

 

[nsfwchan]

Yeah those patch notes were hilarious, keep up the great stuff dev! You blast 95% of the games here in effort, don't let random posters bring you down.

Vinkawa make the game as YOU want it. You will not be able to please everyone, so do not waste the energy to attempt to do so. People will like your game, or they will hate it. Again, nothing you can do to change that. The ones that like the game will continue to play and enjoy it. The ones that hate it, will at some point stop playing.

I am already doing the game exactly as I want it.

I will keep answering haters. I'm not willing to change them, i'm willing to shit on them.

It looks like it's hard for some of you to see a dev who's not bending the knee to anyone and hits the haters right in their face instead, but I will make you used to it, or you'll end up leaving the game and move on. I'm fine with both options.
If I have to lose thread ownership for not bending the knee to these whining bitc**, let it be so, someone will leak the game for me here anyway.
Until that time comes, every single hater coming here will get shit on. Not a single one of them will have the slightest privilege of feeling free.

 

[Kaos_Theory]

This thread is comedy gold. I enjoy watching the developers be themselves and not buckle under pressure like I've seen elsewhere. It's so refreshing to see someone proud to stand and face everything with a smile and a fire in their heart!

I haven't yet got around to diving into the latest update, but I will, as this game tickles a few of my happy places, keep the goodness coming

 

[Deathmind]

Vinkawa, Ima be so for real with you, this game didn't spark any real interest in me until I saw the changelog for the current update. Not only are you genuinely funny, but you seem to actually care about the animation quality for us degens. Props to you and I look forward to playing this game and potentially spending money to give you more financial freedom to make it better!

after playing new update

 

[T4t0rt]

This game is goddamn good. Period.

 

[sanshisan]

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

 

[Neurasiatic]

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

 

[Deleted member 55162]

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 is more 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.

 

[Shicko]

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!

 

[Michel_Le_Pêcheur]

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.

Fuck the haters.
