VN Ren'Py Light of My Life [Ch.8 v0.8.2] [Naughty Road]

[afterlights]

Gotta say.... I've been noticing this game for a long time and I was struggling with playing it or not. All because of..... yeah the graphics....
But I kept seeing the very positive (and numerous) reviews so I went and tried it ; saying to myself "Welp, might not be the graphics you're used to but you had the same problem with Photo Hunt and it went very well, it grew on you. So let's try it"

And boy, do I feel stupid....

That game is wonderful. It is beautifully written (I had trouble breathing more than once), the visuals are gorgeous and immersives, the characters are so much human and so endearing.... and beautiful too, the graphics grew on me like I thought.

I feel like a prime idiot for letting the peculiar appearances of the characters bother me. No more, I'm hooked now and happy to be so.

Thanks a lot and a great bravo to naughtyroad, truly one of the best games on F95.

I'm right there with you. I've seen it in "Latest Updates" and have passed it by. It's all-around a well-made game, from the story and its devlopment to the characters and their growth. Even the character models, with their rich expressions, have a kind of hybrid realism-caricature that's endearing. Like if Aardman made a porn novel.

So when asked about if I want to go serious with Brooke my only option is "no", did I do something wrong or is there a choice between the daughters and her (and no harem) and I goofed?

Very well deserved winners and I'm honored to even be mentioned along with such high quality devs. Congrats to all.

They seem to have missed or downplayed your deep community involvement, which is a large part of your development process: you interact with all types and that engages fans, creates patrons, etc. It was mentioned for their number one pick and I wonder how that was glossed over for your entry: maybe I missed it, but the criteria was a bit opaque to me.

Regardless, I do believe all the positive qualities just mentioned and feel the game's success is as much due to your handiwork as your community involvement.

How's the lewd content in this new chapter? Not expecting anything great with the daughters just yet but what about others? Running on a tight schedule these days so let me know if it's worth playing

It's worth it!

It's worth it!

Great then, I'll give it a go. Thanks for the info

It's worth it!

Seconded.

This update is my first playthrough, and Ch. 5 pays off.

I had two choices, but I'm not sure of the statistics or events needed to trigger that. (Maybe the during the dinner date at the restaurant?) Regardless, I chose "No."

 

[naughtyroad]

It was a good update but as chapters go it was very short. Only three days in game.

There's less in-game time covered, but it had roughly the same number of scenes as the previous update, so it has roughly the same amount of content as previous chapter.

Telling Macy you want to be involved with Brooke locks her out. You probably have the option enabled that hides menu options that lock out Macy and Denise, so you didn't see that option.

This is by far my most favouritest thread ever. So full of raw emotions - humour, sorrow, anger, joy. I find myself revisiting it frequently to check on updates and am never disappointed. The last ~10 to 20 page update has been awesome and I look forward to the coming weeks.

Oh yeah, and the games pretty good too.

Oh yes. This thread is a major part of the game. I'm quite fond of the 'WHENS THE UPDATE' QTE but I'm never quick enough for it. The others ITT are much quicker on the trigger. There should be another in 4 or 5 pages time tho.

Hell yes.

BUT a word of warning.
It is not a 10 minute-in fap material, which you can simply pick up and be done with it in a jiffy.

Read the text, and the attachment to the characters will grow for you.
As well as your lust.

does anyone have the game save data before the update?

 

[Miðgarðsormr]

I noticed something which now raises a question that naughtyroad surely can explain.

In the beginning you get a foreshadowing in which the MC acts like he is talking with his wife which as we find out later actually macy in the event in which she and the MC are going to THE Bar (Macy was conceived there) to drink and dance and in general have some fun. Surely you all remember that one.

However we also get another Scene in the game that reminds us alot about the pictures in the museum where both Denise and Macy almost naked drink wine with the MC on the couch which looks oddly similar to lot and his daughters/wifes.

My question therefore is.

Is this just a similarity or did i hit the jackpot with my assumption that this is what is going to happen?

Possible answers:
Yes, No, Maybe, Banana!

PS: Banana means yes. It always does. Just so you know.

After going through the gallery again, I am missing splish-splash for some reason and gropy wakeup is not the first wine bed scene

 

[slashimus]

Just wanted to drop in and say that I am very impressed with this game so far. It might actually be my favorite game in the whole genre. I really like how believably the characters act and interact with one another and the art style, while took some getting used to, is now just about my favorite too.

Good job Naughtyroad!

I wanna say banana, but it sort did happen already, in a way, didn't it?

Oh, yeah, you're right about that, it's not. It's a wakeup scene with M+D though, the first wake-up scene after drinking is with M only.

With regards to the other scene, I have a hard time explaining why you wouldn't see that, as I can't reproduce. My builds, no mods, not otherwise touched? If you open the console and enter persistent.unlock_cabin_bathroom_rub = True, does that unlock it?

Ah fair enough. Btw, I gotta say that what you've created is really a work of art, erotica and not "mere pornography". You have your own distinctive visual style that's quite excellent and the storytelling has been some of the best I've seen on this page. The tone of the story is also superb; the notion of dealing with grief as part of a "porn game" is something that took real courage to try and it lends a real intimacy to the whole endeavor that is vanishingly rare in this genre.

(To go a bit into the visual style again, it really is a nice mix of realistic and stylistic: the slightly exaggerated proportions that still follow reality far closer than the vast majority of games featuring sexualized barbie/anime dolls is a breath of fresh air. Still wish I had more than the preggo for us chunky lovers tho)

If you ever go through a remaster though, I think the forest chapter had a bit too much visual reuse of the hiking animation, but that's the only thing I could mention that was negative. I especially think you shouldn't feel rushed or pushed, that's what happened with ICSTOR and in the end they burned out and have disappeared and it would be a real shame to see this work of art unfinished.

I would genuinely for instance love a spinoff, with the fantastic elements for instance, especially if it let you go a bit more wild with fetishes and subjects (preggoing gobbos is far to rare for instance)
