VN Ren'Py Light of My Life [Ch. 1-7 v1.0.0] [Naughty Road]

What you have developed so far.. is an honest, innovative approach to the genre. I was iffy at the start. Not my type of girls, and honestly, I was looking for something different.. to begin with.

Your design of this game.. It made me rethink things.. It made me appreciate small details... How can I explain it? Usually, while I enjoy imagery.. there was extra.. I learned to pay more attention and appreciate the artwork.. And while slightly over exaggerated, The characters' emotional expressions, that bothered me at first... Came to make more sense. I grew to find the girls beautiful and endearing.. Every little thing ties into each other, without me having to pretend to give a shit about bad coffee (for example.) At first I was frustrated slightly by a lack of imagery.. But, after focusing on the story, and nuances involved... Every little piece, became a little bit more enjoyable.

The chiding in the beginning of the game, to small but exquisitely placed humor (one of my favorite lines is from preliminaires exquis 2020)

I found your approach novel.. and think that without something of this nature... the genre would be doomed. The story hit me with some emotions.. (that i usually play games to avoid in the first place ) and it gave me another perspective, that seemed fresher..

I know I'm babbling on, but thank you, keep up the good work, and let us take more care of those girls. T.T

I'm so excited for the next update, this is one of the few H-games that actually got me emotional, so I'm looking forward to more story.

Goddamn, I travelled again and fell behind on posts... My relatives who have lives are dragging me into them and making it seem like I have one myself lol...

I make jokes about it... but DAMN you really do sound like you were here for "educational purposes"

Lol thanks, I'll take that as a compliment, intended or not... It just shows the extreme respect I have for Naughty's work and writing that I'm willing to discuss it in these terms, the same as I would any other great piece of fiction worthy of parsing with any level of minutiae.

There is this thing with fetishes that somehow change as you get older. That's my thought anyway. I can see why people go into En Tee Arghhhh because something just doesn't click forever. Eventually you start to look for something different, not necessarily better. I used to like "watersports" (the affectionate term) but now it's a neutral fetish to me. Though, fetishes also vastly change. I used to be into tentacle stuff when i was in my early teens growing up. I've since lost my liking to them. Also, can't really enjoy evil protagonists/evil games. Tried to play

because I loved Sumeragi Kohaku's incredible art and character design but... yeah, no thanks. The first scene is a brother taking his sister to school, a dozen guys rape her including him...
That's the prologue...

Anyway, Light of my life hopefully won't have any scenes THAT screwed up. Fingers crossed!

Yea, sorry I'm a filthy degenerate when it comes to fiction and I still like that game lol...

Hmm. Actually, mine haven’t changed at all in 35 years or so. I have discovered some new ones along the way, but the fetishes I had at 12 I still have at almost 50. So I think it varies from person to person.

Yep, my brain dragged me down to the gutter at age 11 and there I remain and probably will forevermore...

I remember attending a play party at what was usually a gay bathhouse. The TVs in all the rooms played gay porn nonstop. Not my jam, but whatever. I was there for my friends, not the videos. The same holds in my games. I'm not seeking out gay male games, but if a scene should occur, not a problem.

On the topic of lifetime kinks, one of mine has been strip games. I joined Dare Ring for a month to get all their videos (before they went bye bye), and I keep being tempted by Lost Bets. Unfortunately, it's usually a game for the young, so it will probably remain an unrealized fantasy. I know some players consider it a cheap, tired trope in these games, but I'm fine with it.

I'm much the same, if I'm playing a game with gay male content I'll watch/read it if it's relevant to the story. If it's just gonzo stuff I'll skip it, but for most VNs I want to see all possible story elements, which I why I get frustrated with games that have too much hard pathing. I'll usually go through the scripts and merge them all into one path and change a few lines of dialogue to make it make sense if necessary, lol. Like I remember early on with the Brooke content I was freaked out you could get locked out of her path or Macy's before I got super involved in the thread and I tore through the scripts looking for any variables that might indicate what would happen in the future lol. Fortunately (in my humble opinion) we know that's never gonna happen but it will still be interesting to see the ways the dialogue goes depending on how hard you lean one way or the other.

Also man I loved lost bets stuff, I was also obsessed for a few years (like 3 or 4) especially with some of the thicker girls they had on. My interest abated over time but now that you've reminded me I'll have to check them out again. Also never heard of Dare Ring but it seems a lot of their content is floating around on tubesites so I'll have to check them out too.

I play alone, in my studio while everyone is asleep... like a fking lunatic or a random school shooter...

I've tried to accept your Discord invite multiple times NR . Keeps saying "opps! Sorry can't accept invite".
Just wanted to check the status from time to time. Love the game btw. Played it through dozens of times. Look for an update for games I like, if nothing... it's time for another play through. Thank you so much.

 

[Haremm lover]

Next update?

Again, it doesn't matter who's OP. Developers are welcome to be OP.
But the moment an OP builds in paywalls, be it subtle or not, it will eventually turn F95 into just another Patreon page of theirs. An unnecessary but free redirection is annoying, yet defendable.



It's already there. In the first post, it says: Developer: ...
If you're talking about the progress indicator, I'd suggest putting it into the Developer Notes: ... Be it a progress picture behind a spoiler tag or a written number. No direct paywall link.



Exactly. And it should stay this way.



My purpose here is to prevent developer fanbases overtaking the F95 boards. It's the F95 boards. This dude has a free discord. Stop interpreting your insanity on some guy wanting to keep a thread clean from manipulative paywalls, a big reason F95 was founded in the first place.

my god dude.... are you trying to break some kind of world record or something? HOW can you not understand such a simple thing? lmao

I am glad there are dev's that actually work on their project's and write engaging story's, ( NR, Pinkcake and other's ). Where so many others put out a story/game with pretty much no story at all ( and usually crappy animation's). Or cause controversy by making micro update after micro update, stalling and such. Hell there are dev's that don't put out an update for year's ( YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE ( we all know )).

So Hat's off to Dev's that actually care about what they are doing. As well as the fan's that give them the support they deserve.


( what is this paywall stuff ? ( snicker.. snicker ))

I effing love that. It would also make a pretty good setup for a VN in itself.

Don't be. Getting ridiculed for your kinks by your own offspring who learned everything they know from you and have the guts to judge you is a nightmare.
I managed to ease the entire topic by claiming i play this game for the artistic approach in writing as inspiration. Which no one believes BUT I WILL STICK TO MY STORY TILL I DIE!

The only bright side is that they like the game so i have the high ground for now. But this is probably the hill i will die on the moment they find another game on the PC.
I also play when everyone is asleep but the funny thing about teenagers is.....they don't sleep. They are like the duracell rabbit from the commercial. They have energy for months and only drop dead tired for a couple of hours before they run again for months......

I effing love that. It would also make a pretty good setup for a VN in itself.

Hell No! The last thing my daughter needs is fuel to her god complex of moral superiority. The only way to handle her is my GF who can verbally open a can of not only whoop ass but literally a verbal Nuke on command which shuts her up for about 24 hours. It has funny moments but teenagers are a pain in the ass most of the year.

" Inappropriate Review " Hu ? ( scratch his head ) I'm pretty sure my review was correct... Oh well...

Did you maybe use some nasty words or something? I never had this issue so i am quite curious on what you have to write to get "inappropriate Review" response.

Not my type to said/write some nasty words I was complimenting the game...

A far I remembered (more or less):
" Characters are originals " (there are more compliment but I can't remember...My reviews was posted last month I think)
"Remind me some the old hentai game because the game is very long "
"No matter if the whole thing holds up" or "Does not matter if the history is very good"
"Maximum star for this game"

Thats odd. Can't think of any other reason than nasty words or insults or something similar for a review to get the "Inappropriate Review" answer. Complementing a game should not get a "Inappropriate" whatsoever. Maybe we should ask a mod for some input.
