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

[naughtyroad]

I'm curious, I really love the game so far but in the future will there be kinks like BDSM or Maledom added? or is it out of the question, I still like the vanilla stuff though.

Well, I do want to include some kinks, but there's two things to consider. First of all, there's a question of character. I mean, don't expect to be leading Macy around the park on a leash in an open-crotched latex dogsuit for instance. Secondly, some thing I know I couldn't write in a way that is compelling. With that I mean stuff like rape and sexual assault, coercion, or sexualized violence (when not directed at the MC that is).

Wrt other kinks, if they're fun and consensual and fit the character, sure. Without confirming anything, I can imagine Brooke having a lot of fun tying the MC to a bed, I know the footsie cadre has been hoping for some action in their neck of the woods. We already have one pregnant lady in the mix but who's to say it stops there, and there are plenty more fun kinks I can imagine doing over time. We'll have to see where the story takes us.

I know i still have my fingers crossed waiting for the update to play where the main character can impregnate the daughters.

Oh AMEN to that.

A lot of people have called the characters ugly, but that's really not true. The renders themselves are very well done.

I think the problem a lot of people are having (myself included to some extent) is the art style is very unique, and is not to everyone's taste. It's really hard to describe, but the closest comparison I can make is that the art style and the characters really give me a claymation vibe. Specifically, the character models really make me think of a more realistic Aardman Animation characters (Chicken Run, Wallace and Gromit, Flushed Away), but I'm not exactly sure why. This is not necessarily a bad thing, it certainly makes the game stand out. But it does feel strange.

 

[Deleted member 158605]

I like the characters, they are different, I get tired of the same old models. These girls look natural, and I love the youngest one's tits, very realistic variation. The characters look more like people I might meet on the street. Keep up the good work, really like the story so far as well.

So ? Is there anything coming in near Future? i think this game has pretty solid Potential,- also Storywise much and many directions to go with, Rendering is Great and something new. Hope this is not some kind of short moneymovement shit

Dev does an entire chapter per update. So they take a while to make.

When is the next update?

 

[rcbcgreenpanzer]

When is the next update?

When it's done. None of us but naughtyroad have any clue how near or far that is. And begging a dev distracts said dev from making more game!

Hey eh i did not start this to make any pressure on the Dev.

But ehm to bring an update out 0.3.3 or whatever the last update is (your prospective it is called an update cause it got fixes)
from my prospective its a waste of time,- if you have some NonMajor things to fix and correct,- do so. but don't create an freakin "version" out of that useless fix (EXCEPT the version before did not WORK properly! i played it and everything was great so there WAS no issue to really fix.)

My Point is,- for me that was basically a Money Move or atleast similar to one you know

Cause i checked the Changelog and damn really ? literally not a major fix or change whatsoever
"1 changed image" bruh ... = waste of time to "HOLD THIS GAME ACTIVE" but taking my time by developing it.

This is what i think is the issue with alot of Developers.

There are a few where I can say wow, they are actually really good, Render, Storytelling, concept of the Game, Visuals, Animations yada yada, a few really great Devs are here
This Project right here has even a different touch just cause of the look of the game its different and catches eyes.
so big + for that, good rendering, nice story so far alot to build up with and go to.
BUT then some weirdo fixing moves are coming in that literally changed nothing at all^^

Like EITHER bring an "UPDATE" out where you UPDATED the game aka DEVELOPED the game further with FutureContent.
Or don't bother wasting time uploading anything and make a Post instead.
And when you smashed a couple hundred Renders (Yes this takes Time and I respect that. But you always should put yourself a Limit on until when you want to have the Next Update ready,- its like creating your own Anime series,- they started exactly like that but they needed to be even more consistent and make it real and hold their own schedules on point and BRING stuff out before the deadtime was over you know so y.

NoOffens to you Dev. I got you but small, or you can say literally nothing changed on this current update except 1image got inserted "and if anyone wants to see that you need to play from the beginning" bruh... For 1Picture ? meh fuck that (what leads to---> you wasted your own time aswell cause for ONE picture out of 300-500+Pictures? nah I'm good .

You know what I mean ?

Anyway. Keep up the Great Work. Like I said i like this game so keep the RealUpdates coming with FutureContent. And Stick or Focus on this Game for a while,- cause I really believe just because of the Visuals (cause its different yet very appealing) and added on that the Storytelling (the way you started it and lead it so far) is very captivating so ye. Keep it up

Well no not really a waste of time I'd still go back and replay it for that one picture because I am so immersed in this story besides you can get caught up again with the story if you replay it after an update for me playing this one is time well spent.

Why wouldn't they upload a new version? It's not like devs are uploading typo fixes, even minor version changes for the most part have noticeable improvements. 0.3.3 of this game specifically introduced the gallery feature, which alone is substantial enough to warrant a new version. No one's forcing you to download a newer version - personally, I tend to wait 2/3 major updates before I re-download a game. If your complaint is "devs are wasting time uploading that could be better spent on other stuff", the fact is uploading a new version takes a very small amount of time in the grand scheme of things. Most devs probably just upload a new version while they're waiting on renders or something.

Also, if we're talking about this from a "business/marketing" perspective, there's a pretty big incentive for devs to update their game on a regular basis (even for minor updates). Updates let patreons and fans know how work is progressing on the game, and perhaps more importantly, updates puts your game back at the top of the list, and likely gets more people talking about it, bumping threads, etc. Maybe it's not an ideal system but that's how it works.

Translations: v0.3.3 Brazilian Portuguese by Moricano

First of all I liked the girls and plot, their renders have a unique charm that I have not seen in others VNs that use 3DCG <3.

Second, I'd like to know how I can have the Dev's blessing for a spanish translation I think is a story that no one should miss.

Cheers for the kind words and appreciation, that's what keeps me motivated to keep going with this game.

I understand the concerns you voice, and I fully understand where they come from. Let me address some of those points, and at the same time clarify how I think about developing this game.

First of all, please note that the 0.3.0 and 0.3.3 were released pretty close to each other and contained some pretty vital changes, starting a boatload of grammar en display issues and some important quality-of-life improvements for Android users in 0.3.2 (which followed 0.3.0 that is the original chapter 2 release) and followed by a fix for an issue that crashed the game for a bunch of users in 0.3.3.
As you can tell by the release notes, I also clearly indicate if it's worth downloading again or not if you already played through the chapter, so you can spare yourself the trouble of playing it through again and finding nothing new.

I develop this game with the idea that the average player will play through content just once, and I have only one chance to do it right. If it's borked (different players have different thresholds for borked), a player won't come back. When they feel that way, it's on me for not delivering.

So, those 'minor' things really need to be addressed, because I can't let a borked version sit here for several months and have wave after wave of players be turned off by it. If anything, I need to show my supporters that I am worthy of their trust and generosity and dedicated to fixing stuff that's broken, instead of flinging low quality shit out there to collect a quick buck while leaning back.

As to money schemes: my supporters are awesome, each and every one, and I am still blown away by their generosity on the daily, but I'm no gumdrop or icstor raking it in by the boatload, not by an order of magnitude at least. If it was about the money, I'd be contracting in my evening hours instead, so I could double my dayjob salary.

I'm doing this because I love doing this, not because I hope to get rich easy. I hope that shows from the content I create, because in the end, that's the only thing that matters.

Thank you, and please do! I'd love you to create a translation and bring the girls to regions I cannot. Feel free to DM about any questions you may have.

 

[Small tits are best]

quality is king and at the moment Naughtyroad you have the crown (quality over quantity any time) Keep it up

I'll do my best, you can count on me to make that possible. Thanks a lot.

Love the game so far, can't wait for Chapter 3.

Keep up the good work.

 

[hmorphone]

Discovered the game last night, couldn't put it down til I hit the (current) end...
Loved it, very immersive and also more believable then many I've played.
Didn't care much for Macy at first but she's grown on me quite a lot.
Denise owns it for me, can't wait to see more of her (and her plan lol)!
Brooke was quite easy to resist, I'll leave that at that...

Naughtyroad - Good stuff man!!! (really good!)

 

[CassidyPRO]

Does this game plan to have any animated scenes in the future?

i hope not
