VN Ren'Py Abandoned Love and Submission [v0.08] [veqvil]

[Re-4Andrew]

You know the art in the background (wall art) actually looks similar to Andy Warhol's. I thought it looked good!

Then again I may be missing some cranial matter, so it may just be me..

I am not a critic when I say this the graphics are good, the characters need smoothed out, the bodies need worked on, but I am not sure how far you can go before it becomes a pain in the arse. And its not your game, that's just the way 3D is.

 

[Re-4Andrew]

any Walkthrough?

You have to scan back through the thread some players have given hints. But no official walkthrough has been done up yet.

 

[veqvil]

honestly might become my favorite game, I love the visuals so far

I'm really glad to hear that, I will always try to improve that game

Nice one, finished it now, graphics are not top notch but who cares when the dialogues and events are so interesting..keep up the good work; also i didnt saw the quickbar on the bottom with save, load ,quick save and so on? its supposed to be like that? i use qs often in other games so it would be useful

Thank you for your feedback
Well, I removed them except for prefs to have less on my screen, is that actually a big issue for you?
Also, I'm learning more and more about lighting and posing as well as getting more realistic emotions to improve the visual experience.

any Walkthrough?

Something like a walkthrough is planned and will be in-game Also try @Re-4Andrew way to play the game using the saves as an alternative

I try and get into the character that I am playing and when you get an email from a person that you hate and then you are forced to go on a date with this ass hole how else should you take the game but shit what the fuck am I being forced to go on a date with someone I hate.
You get an email from your ex that you have grown to hate and what else do you do but tell the bitch off.

There is so much hate for those 2 at the beginning of the game and you are forced into it.
Then you feel like an ass for doing "WHAT THE GAME TELLS YOU" about whats going on.

Having to restart the game because I can not let a helpless girl have that happen to her.

I was hoping to go with the players opinion on how bad he/she finds that break up, so I thought if you personally really hate her for that you would also reply that way, on the other hand, I wanted you to be surprised at how she changed and you might have decided different based on that anyways xD

I'm sorry for causing you to feel bad

Its the beginning story that throws the first time player off and until you see her and see how much she has changed all the player has is that beginning info and it is nothing but hate for both brother and sister and thats how most players will go is the hate route. If you go hate you don't get the full story.
You don't get his feelings that he had for her unless you go the love route the other route is nothing but hate and the hate route is what most players will go with because that is the story that the player gets until the choice is made.

You do have a point there, maybe I can add some lines which also express how you miss her a little.
Nonetheless, thank you for pointing that out, I'm happy with any type of feedback

I actually felt sorry for her when you choose to not date her again

even more since she was going to get sexually abused

but my first choice was to agree to meet her in the email, I'm not someone who reject girls in a porn game ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

That emoji though xD

Finished the latest demo. I tried all the possible routes since all the characters are sexy. Logo needs to change, it looks cheap compared to the game. The initial sex scene of the strangers came out of nowhere, kind of distracting the flow of the story. I thought the sister was the mother initially at the door when they welcome the MC. Mother and daughter models don't look related but undeniably sexy. I like that the character models don't remind me of other games. I liked the option to do nothing when I did not reply to the ex-GF email since I was on the mindset that the player would either be re-conciliatory, angry, or ambivalent. Ambivalence is a nice change of pace.

I was totally teased on the sister route. I hope for more content in the future.

Thinking on it, perhaps a first initial "flag" could be placed on the MC during the cab ride while he's thinking about things. The trip finding himself thru the Asia could have revealed to himself that he was essentially "good", "perverted" or "evil".

That yields a 3x3 grid of possibility when combined with the Fit, Psy and Tech routes:
Good Fitness: Just a big clueless loving hero jock, chicks dig heroes.
Perverted Fitness: Didn't work this hard to look good and NOT get laid!
Evil Fitness: Meat-head bully, even perhaps a little forceful and 'rape-ish'
Good Psychology: MC wants to help everyone else "know" and "accept" their kinks.
Perverted Psychology: MC wants to get into everyone's pants, slutmaking's his thing.
Evil Psychology: MC wants to control everyone absolutely, mindbreaking a definite plus.
Good Technology: Sure, he may spy and creep, but it's for their own good!
Perverted Technology: The future is now, and he's going to use it to get laid!
Evil Technology: The internet is great, it needs content though, so #SexTapes!

Might be a fair bit more work though, so just good/evil may be a little more realistic and just assume that he's a pervert regardless if good or evil, this is a sex game, after all. The option to do "truly bad things" is rare in games though, and I definitely think there's an untapped market for it. Sleep Creeping, forced masturbation, blackmail, and rape-ish stuff don't get nearly the game representation they deserve, imo. After all, I think a lot of us play these games to do things and act in ways we never would in real life and if it's all optional/player choice, even the "sex game playing prudes" (yeah, that's a thing!) should have little to say about it.

Wow, that got a little long, sorry about that. I really shouldn't post things 35 hours into no sleep...

Thank you for your feedback .
Yes, I totally agree on many points there and in terms of the logo, I was already thinking about changing that. Amys face "age" is an issue I try to resolve by improving the lighting situation she is being in, changing the models is something I wouldn't like to do.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! I really like your grid and it's very interesting (Also the comments on each thing are hilarious, aka the future is now XDD). The Love route with every character seems to be the "Good" thing since love requires you to be well... loving XD
The perverted rout is only in combination with Psy, but you are able to pick psy and go the love route which means that the good psychology is sort of planned in this game. In terms of Tech, there definitaly are options in terms of making use of personal information or just using it for personal enjoyment.

Actually, the grid is sort of filled (at least on my papers but its more like that every spec has different ideas going on).

Gang Fitness: You are the alpha male and that's why people follow you and listen to you, but being in gang also means to share your stuff
Seduce fitness: Looking good and being irresistible makes the girls go for you even though you do nothing or just stand in the shower

Good Psy: ... had to edit this out, it was too much spoiler
Perverted Psy: Make them into sex pets you have total control over and have fun or even let them have fun with others on your command

Perv Tech: Since "send nudes" didn't always was very reliable, get them yourself
Bad Tech: As a Tech nerd there sometimes is no other way to get to the fun unless you get others secrets and ask for a little "protection money".

Please be aware that these things are just thoughts (well not all but I still keep my distance from promising stuff) and might never find their way in the game or differently.

Your 3x3 grid is awesome though I believe that I got a good portion covered by the plans so far, the more "rapish" and evil things are honestly very interesting but need way more work and I'm already worried that I'm going too "broad" another thing is the headhunting over patreon for stuff that goes this way, resulting in splitting my game into two versions and again I'm just learning to manage and work on a project, so I'm a total newbie besides being idiotic anyways XD.

I want every update in the free mode phase (0.05+) to contain a good portion of every route and the more routes I have the smaller the update on each route. Nonetheless, I'm saving this post in case I look for inspiration and also a big big thank you for putting your time into it!

 

[Hercule_Poirot]

Gang fitness? Since when was that a thing? BTW, sharing in these kind of games doesn't seem like a good decision at all. Can't you just be heroic?

"Gang fitness" would make more sense if you were evil, it seems like the opposite of an Heroic story arc.

3rd Street represent!

I don't know, sharing these women seems pretty heroic to me. It would be a crime to selflessly keep all these beauty's to oneself when one could also share them with others in need. Spread the love you know? I myself hope the blackmail route will eventually feature forsed prostitution because I am a giver not a taker. Sharing is caring after all :extremelyhappy:

It's called Underpromise and Overdeliver

Well, gang fitness would be more of an evil thing, going with fitness for seduction and also being strong counts more as the "good" variation.

3rd Street represent!

I laughed so hard XD

The power of blackmailing has no limits

Well the title "art" is really bad, with the chosen colors and all, looks like the creator of this thing isn't that good at drawing ;D

I"ll give this game a try, thank you!

but being in gang also means to share your stuff

Maybe sharing the boys around in the gang more like, kek
No but for real, playing Heroic type of character is the best in these sort of games, unless you are some self loathing sociopath that enjoys cruel and dark nonsense

Well, I totally agree on that, that's why there are "bad" guys in LaS anyway .
Protecting a woman also is a way to make them like you, if you are strong enough to do so (Good Fitness route).
