VN Ren'Py Light of My Life [Ch. 8 v0.8.1] [Naughty Road]

[Deleted member 6129925]

In a little bit. I need to jump through a few hoops to get it ready to release there.

its fine bro, i was just asking, i wouldnt mind, i prefere macy anyways, and its my favourite game here, ive been suporting it for 3 years on patreon.

since the game is getting so big you should start making an update patch instead of forcing everyone to downloaad 7+ gigs every release.

It's a 2GB APK. Could it be you just have an older device (or one that is more on the budget side rather than the performance side - I mean, I know my phone ain't gonna be able to lift this sucker)?

Possibly, but it has run other large (1.8 gig+) without issues or having to deal with joiplay

It doesn't seem related to that. I've got an S9 that ran the last APK fine (less compressed, so also 1.5-2 GB-ish), and it didn't work for this one (which is great in a way, I got myself a reproduction that I can work with). My wife's S22 does work fine, but one of the testers had problems with that model. I've talked with two testers that also have s9's and one of them got it working, the other didn't. Some testers tested on even older devices, where it did work.

So age, model, make, architecture, and resources don't seem to be deciding factors.

Right now my thinking is that there's settings or other apps getting in the way, but I'm not sure. Could also be related to the Gradle build that was upgraded recently for ren'py. Logcat is giving me nothing much (or rather it's giving me a ton of logs but nothing that stands out as a culprit).

I'm gonna be testing a bit more over the weekend and see if I can't pinpoint it but I didn't want to hold up the release on this.

are u really complaining about that ? lmao

 

[NoMansMind]

one of the most unique and warmhearted VNs out there. and therefore on my Steam wishlist for a very long time.
glad, it is still alive. I have nothing but the highest respect for this game - as the game has for its characters!

naughtyroad Any plans for a Halloween special?

Honestly, I'm not forcing you to do anything, but I understand what you're saying. However, updates are few and far between, so it's not like you're getting hit monthly. Even so, if it is a problem, I'd recommend getting it on

You must be registered to see the links

, where it's pay what you want (e.g. grab it for free if that's what you want), and from what I've seen, it'll handle the incremental for you if you go through their client.

Ive been waiting a long time to see the next update for this game, crossing my fingers that we get something with the sisters. The old ladies really arent my thing.

 

[ron teague]

wow its been a min cool i thought you gave up on it

People got something with Denise and Macy last update - one all the way. Why wouldn't there be something in this update? Always look on the bright side of life.

I dont remember that, I remember one of them daring the other to do something but then it never happened. Maybe I missed Chapter 6?

You must have. Chapter Five had the sequence with Macy and Denise hovering over Lou asleep in the cabin and the eruption which followed their attention. Chapter Six had the funeral for one of the owners of the diner and the opportunity with one of them happens after it. Does that sound familiar, at all?

Is a WT needed or are the game and possible choices self-explanatory

Light of My Life and Baldur Gate 3 the same month, best month ever.

 

[MrFatCat]

Oh, FFS. This is the entirety of that dialog (that's been in there since, oh, chapter 3?), meant to prevent the bombardment of people on this tread complaining about why there were sooo many words in between the tiddy bits, this gaem suchs!

Before we start: Light of my Life is a visual novel. It's got a ton of dialog, quite a bit of prose. Mercifully little experimental poetry though.
There's also a lot of pictures to go with it, and I try my best to make the writing interesting, or at the very least relevant.
However, if your usual M.O. with these things is to skip through to get to the lewd bits, you won't be getting much fun out of this game.

A: No worries. I enjoy reading. Unless the writing's bad or boring, I'm not planning to skip through it.
->     Great! I'm going to get out of your way then. Enjoy. Oh, and if it's your first playthrough, lose the walkthrough/walkthrough mod if you have it. You really don't need it. (start game)

A: If we're being honest, I don't care about story, I wanna see lewds. I'm probably skipping through most of it.
->     Right... listen, there's a ton of great stuff out there that's much more suited to your playing style. So, how about I save you and me both a lot of frustration?"
    A: Yes please, I don't like frustration.
    ->     No problem at all. Have a good one!
        (quits game, if you boot it back up, it'll pick up the conversation and lets you unlocks the gallery if you want. Starts the rest of the game.
    A: Will you just get out of my way already?
    ->    (offers to unlock the gallery for you instad if you want, starts the rest of the game)

I'm not really one to tell people how to interpret their text, but it's light hearted, friendly, it pokes a bit of fun and gets the fuck out of your way forever once you've answered it. It certainly doesn't say "hey I noticed you skip text, do you only want nudes? oh, fuck you then! *shuts off*", so that's a blatant lie.

Also, you say "Bro I like both (story and lewds)", but given what happen you clearly indicated in the game you didn't. Just chill the fudge out and don't come here whining that it says you don't like words when you yourself picked the option that says "I don't like words."

It's not a lecture whichever way you turn it.

Bro it legit shuts down the game with barely any warning. Don't try to dismiss my point because I added a little flavor to their language. Seriously your bitching about my complaint is longer than my complaint.

Hi.

So is there any penetration or not with any of the 2 MCs?

I'm not interested in finding out myself, neither in why I shouldn't get the answer.

If you don't want to be a spoiler, you can send me a private message.

Thank you for your understanding, let's see if there's anyone with common sense.

Thank you again

Also, if you're not interested in finding out yourself, why should we bother to let you know. It doesn't seem to be important enough for you. Here, let me repeat the same thing I've said to at least 2 others in the past 4 hours:

It's barely been released a few hours. The playthrough of the Chapter 7 update, only, if actually read/viewed and not speedran/skipped, it will take MANY hours (over 10, if not upwards 20 hours). There are over 10k new images in this update. Even if someone was going to tell you/show you, they haven't even seen all the content yet to give you a completely honest and realistic answer.

It's common sense.
