I played the first 7 + the 8th chapter and it's a great little story with unique looking but very well rendered and posed art, very nice. One request though is to make it a little leaner in the number of clicks to get through conversations. The dialogue is good it's just a lot of clicks to get through and a lot of repetitious art, I think you could condense some of the back and forth over dinners and other conversations and even in the sex scenes by 1/4 to 1/2 the number of clicks. It's not out of a desire to just get to the porn stuff but the sheer volume of back and forth gets to be a bit too much.
Anyway thanks and keep up the good work and consider just a little condensing of dialogue and shots with repetitive art.

You and I both know they won't click those links :ROFLMAO: maybe they read this, probably not :cry:

We need to talk about save game practices.


Since the public release is very soon to be upon us, here a short little rant about how to properly handle saves in Light of my Life, or any ren'py game for the matter.

Get that chip off my shoulder

Let me start of by saying I never really got why anyone'd want to get a random stranger's save game when starting a new chapter. Unless you care absolutely nothing about all the choices you made in the previous chapters (what are the pet names you are called or call people, what fetish did you encourage or discourage, when you had that heart-to-heart, did you comfort them, or relate to them by you struggle with that too, are you afraid of heights, and the list goes on and on and on), but you know, hey, that's up to you.

If you can't wait to click trough the text as fast as possible to see some lewd, who am I to wag a finger at you over this? Well, actually, it turns out I do have a reason, but more on that later.

But if you're invested in the storyline at all, and you used someone else's save game, just know that all those times something came up that made you scratch your head a little, those weren't continuity errors or wonky writing or the game being weird or buggy, that were choices that other person made that are playing out, and not your choices.

Don't you care about all the things we talked about?


It's so much worse though.

But that's not really what this is about. Coming in this version of the ren'py engine, . Basically what it comes down to is that when you load a save file that was not created on the device you are playing it on now, it'll warn you about it, and you need to confirm that you do.

Why was that added? Well, it turns out that , and someone can quite easily (that vid is hilarious btw). I'll wait a sec or two for that to sink in.

Why's the light on my webcam on?

So for the love of Macy, don't ever ever ever download and use a save file from a source you don't trust. And let's be honest, do you really trust ilickchihuahuas69 over at that forum you visit sometimes, even if they do post all those funny memes? And do you trust the guys he gets his saves from?

Note: you won't get this "are you sure" question loading external saves with Light of my Life immediately: saves made in chapter 6 will not trigger this in chapter 7. But saves made in the upcoming release of Light of my Life will trigger it, and it's a small step in the right direction.

My personal advice is: don't ever use a ren'py save you did not create yourself. Ever.
Id never ask for a save. Hell, after getting my pc fixed i had to do a fresh install but before i did that i made sure to save my OWN saves and put them into something where i can just redownload the saves. I once lost ALL my progress on like 20 games and have always kept saves somewhere just in case.

How many years are we waiting on ch9? You have a unique style and voice. Don't procrastinate it away.
If you don't like waiting or think the developer who logs more hours each week on this project than a person working full-time for an employer is "procrastinating it away"... you might want to consider looking for your entertainment someplace else.

He's a pirate that's made two logged comments in seven years, one of which was that one. He's entitled!

This week in one sentence: Put all my effort into making some inroads into scene 6, and that's paid off as by now, almost all of the images needed are prepared and ready to render out (and the preparation is always the most time-consuming part of production, so I'm glad to have that squared away).
