Ren'Py Completed Long Live the Princess [v1.0.1] [Belle]

[Luxter]

How do you get the "Other Girls" scenes? Someone please help.

 

[Augustus Commodus]

There is currently only one other girl scene. To get it, you need to work at the tailor shop in the morning when you have 20 copper pieces in your inventory. Then agree to pay for the dress.

I'm not done yet, but so far (I think day 18 or 19) I can say I like the story, the characters are cute and likeable and when you get some action it feels somewhat natural, not the forced stuff that in some games comes pretty much out of nowhere. I just hope that there will be a chance for Belle to get laid, not necessarily by the MC, but in general. She really deserves some fun :heartcoveredeyes:

On a more serious note: The Fomoiri history really reminds me of Warcraft and the chaos orcs. :biggrin:

i played it briefly and noticed that there are very few pictures on a lot of text (day 1). does that aspect improve with the newer updates?

 

[Belle]

Is Chaucer not your thing, Belle? How about Shakespeare?

Not really, no. Never saw the appeal.

I erred on the side of caution in the first few updates, keeping renders minimal. I use more of them as the game goes on.

I am new to this so sorry if I am doing it incorrectly. I really like this game and I am very pleased that the women are built more like real women without the huge breasts etc. I have run into a problem I have just completed v12 but I am short one point in agility. I can no longer train with Samara and running rooftops with Nell does not help. Is there a way to gain more agility?

Oh man I've played a little further now (day 14) and the game is so damn good. The characters seem so believable and the dialogues are really well written and sometimes very entertaining.
However, Belle is the absolute highlight

The question has probably been asked several times before, but is it already possible to tell how many versions are planned?

 

[TheVicarious]

Love this game! It's truly one of the best ones I've played on here.

I'm also wondering about the timed event thing involving Samarra and Primrose. Is there a walkthrough for this anywhere? Just got to it but it sounds pretty difficult to finish it in one week xD

 

[RustyV]

Finally a day to recognize us pirates!

 

[crmsn7]

I can't seem to be able to go down on nell

 

[goobdoob]

Yes, Chaucer's

are interesting.

Now, where can we find some gap-toothed women?

 

[Urruah]

Hm. So, having read the story a little more thoroughly, I'm guessing that the princess is possessed by a demon. Otherwise I'm not seeing the point to Samarra's explanation of the Fomori and why the story went out of its way to tell the player about the backstory which, while interesting, is not really directly relevant so far.

I assume the crone is her sister and it's possible they switched at some point, though I'm not sure what the point of that would be. However, it was noted that they looked almost identical. Also, the crone hints very strongly that she and the princess know each other very well, but aren't on good terms anymore. However, this is only on the princess' side of things and the crone really wants to help her. And I suppose the woman at the river is probably the crone without the chameleon scale disguise. Maybe. Not convinced on it actually being a disguise instead of something more complicated. The crone's insistence on good manners is a bit at odds with her supposed character type, which is more often than not fairly foulmouthed themselves.

A body was found, but since this incident sounds familiar to Belle it seems likely that fey magic is somehow involved or some other kind of trickery. Assuming that the princess really is possessed, it would explain why the fairy queen has to wipe out humanity now or bang Dickon, apparently, since I assume that she'll end up sealing the demons away again like her predecessor before her.

What I don't really know is how Selena would have gotten possessed in the first place, but if the crone is her sister then they presumably both have magical talent that one or both may not have controlled very well.

I haven't planned a specific number of versions, so no.

If your demon theory is correct the demon could have been summoned but was too strong to subdue and turned the tables.
Good analysis though.

Well, we know it will be somewhere between 2 and 100.

Explanation:
If we're lucky, there will be a final version, and nothing ever goes quite right the first time, so we have a minimum of 2.and the current 2-digit numbering system doesn't allow for more than 100 major updates (and who has the patience to release that many?!).

But there's nothing that says Belle can't go from 0.99.0 to 1.0.0 and not be done. 1.0 is not necessarily a final release.

1.0.0 won't be a final release, but it will be a complete release. In other words, it will contain all the features required to make it a complete game with a complete story. I'll still probably keep tweaking and adding things after that point, perhaps even adding new girls, but you'll be able to play the game from start to finish and not feel like you're missing anything.

Edit: Also, please don't assume that the version numbers work as a percentage. Just because we're at version 0.12.0 doesn't mean that we're 12% of the way to version 1.0.0. This also means that it would take one massive coincidence (and seriously broken deadlines) for 0.99.0 to be the version before 1.0.0.

I didn't mean to suggest you'd go to 0.99 before 1.0; that was just a reply to @dstarfire saying you could do at most 100 updates before you were done.

In walktrough...

"...
Talk to Samarra
Present a clue
Nell is part fey.*
Truthsayer Merek was poisoned.*
Merek would have ended up bankrupting the library in a few months had he lived (Samarra’s Opinion: Respect +1)
Primrose borrowed a book about poisons and magical reagents (Samarra’s Opinion: Respect +1)
The killer had a key, or someone with a key gave him or her access (Samarra’s Opinion: Respect +1 & Clue: Merek’s tea was poisoned.
He must have smelled it, but drank it anyway. Was it a play for Primrose’s benefit?)..."

after used the clue "The killer had a key..." i don't have the next clue.
Someone Help me?

 

[ficciricci]

First of all (My first post, too) - I love this game! It is in a totally different class from anything else I've seen here - and keeps getting better - More power to Belle for 'transcending the genre'!
I've been following the thread for about three months, now - but haven't commented before because there is usually someone more clued up than me answering the queries as they arise, but this one I think I know!

after used the clue "The killer had a key..." i don't have the next clue.
Someone Help me?

The next clue is given to you by Samarra - as I understand it - because she is impressed by what you have already told her. She should then freely tell you something you didn't already know, specifically: that the poison smells very strongly. provided you have achieved 'Respect + 1 ' from Samarra, she will offer this info freely -

I hope that may help - sometimes it's hard to see the wood for the trees!
