VN Ren'Py Mastering the Pink Box [v0.10] [Studio 68 Games!]

[Maximilian87]

Many options kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Share or No
This is 2 options, asking the fucking same thing 99 times doesnt mean more options .

This game is ok cause the girls are hot .
but the progression is a joke.

i defended this game when it deserved because of the goods it has, an interesting story that will probably become way more intricate as the time goes on, all the girls, but it has to be shit on when it fucks up as well. idgaf, thats my opinion you dont need to agree.
shit update for the time it took to make. there are still multiple variables that are broken in early episodes, misplaced or innacurate.
pretty small update overall, 2 choices: share or not (im talking about content size btw). i said before, i do multiple playtrough for all scenarios, but this was a joke if you have no intention of sharing devon. but thats just my 2 cents.

Amazing update, 10/10!

Devon is easily my favorite girl after this update, I mean she was already top 3 but this pushed her over the top. She's not my favorite looks wise, but overall she definitely is. Also, I really enjoyed the teasing and dirty talk at the end, top notch.

 

[TonyMurray]

I get the "it felt short" thing, mostly because it had been built up a lot and I thought things were going to go further (and I wanted more, which is always a sign of a good game and update). I started playing it late last night and was expecting to finish it this morning, but got it done before heading to bed no later than I otherwise would have. When you look at it in the context of other updates though (for this and for other games), it's a different story.

As far as Devon goes... spoilers just in case:

Honestly, i played from the beginning just to make sure i was not wrong ( i REJECTED all the girls interactions, all the sexs, everything, still got 2 forced sexs scenes ) and i still end up DATING Devon? ( Now dont get me wrong, i just did that to see if the dating part was forced or not, is not my main save ).

Im really not a big fan of forced content, so im taking my leave.

Thank you for the share and I wish you good luck with the project.

This game isn't like Badik its not a somewhat open game narrative and relationship wise, its a game with a specific narrative, clearly Devon is meant to be the MC girlfriend, what you call 'forced' I'd call the base story. You can play a manwhore and fuck every girls around but ultimately they are mostly there as side dishes, Devon is the main dish.

Let's see, I like NTR, sharing, etc., because I like novels with the greatest possible realism, even if they are in a world of fantasy or fiction, but this novel is all about sharing and sex is no longer something intimate and special with the person you love. I understand that it's a pornographic novel and what most readers are looking for are dirty scenes. I expected Devon to be a different character; in the NTR option she seems like a trained slut, but in the non-NTR option, although much better to my taste, I don't see much of a difference. The novel is well written and I want to continue reading it, but it doesn't motivate me to invest in this work. However, I recognize the artist's talent.

Personally I find the Devon sharing way too early. I feel sharing isn't something you'd do year 1 of a relationship, you need to have strong relationship before I feel something like sharing should be considered viable, I mean otherwise you barely started a relationship, your girl end up fucking some guy and he is better at sex, so she might just move over to him because your relationship is still fairly fresh and doesn't have a solid base to stand on, so even if you could be really great for one another it feel too risky.

So yea the MC sharing Day 2 of a relationship? Its way over the top, the fact Todd whined at the pool table if you don't let him touch Devon made me frown, its like, dude the MC and Devon have been officially in a relationship for less than 24 hours, hold your fucking horse. Personally I find this game to some degree on that domain to make no sense, the MC was in a 3 week coma... 3 week, not 3 years, yet his girlfriend after a mere 3 weeks had already said fuck this and has been in a relationship with seemingly multiple guys, working for a sex club, the fuck? Did she truly not give a crap, even if you say 'its college' ITS BEEN A MONTH. Any normal human being that were in a good relationship wouldn't have already moved on in a snap of fingers like this.

Your best friend got into a relationship that sounds as if they have been together for a while... but its like a month after the accident, how the fuck is he already in a solid relationship after less than a month, how come he already knows everyone around after a single month. It feel like the Dev originally wanted to have a bigger time skip but than realized Todd wouldn't be able to justifiably share class with the MC so decided to squeeze down the time skip without taking into account just how ridiculous the time frame for all those changes is.

Beyond that, I find the 'its college' excuse straining for this game, how come it seem every other guy has a NTS or NTR fetish? Seriously look at the entire list of guys and look at the entire list of those with that fetish and you cover at least half the guys in the story... whut? Seriously, can't a girl just cheat on her boyfriend? How come so many of them are fine with it or outright want it to happen? I mean how many girls not in a relationship does the MC fuck during the game... huh... outside Devon, maybe Penny & Chloe, the rest are all in a relationship, again the 'its college' excuse would fly a lot better if the girls were just not in a relationship and fucking around, yet so many of them seem to already be involved with someone.

Look I love Devon, but yea she is probably the only element that is keeping any interest in the game for me, so long as we can keep her for the MC, I'd rather let the others be the ones sharing and getting cucked not the MC, the guy already loss in a completely unrealistic fashion is girlfriend and his parents, whom for some reason left him with peanuts, I mean how much of a fucking ass you'd have to be to say 'hey if anything happen I'd leave 2k to our son and unless he attend a specific college and...' wait a minute... how come their is a specific about attending a specific college? Did they expect to die days before even joining college? What if he already had been going somewhere else? Were they just going to say 'fuck your previous studies, you now have to move to a new college?' or what about if he had been done with college? Did the father just keep updating his will to optimize being a jackass to his son? And what about the whole girlfriend thing? Most rich people if anything would be weary of potential gold diggers, yet here it seem some part of the inheritance is directly correlated to getting a girlfriend, huh... already? Just after they die? Didn't think he might have been fucked up psychologically for a while and not be in the mood for getting a serious girlfriend? Plus again he was heading to college, expecting a serious girlfriend to come about so soon? Its ridiculous.

getting error while loading save game

All of my saves have worked fine. Did you use the walkthrough/multi mod? Could that be causing an issue?

 

[TonyMurray]

Same, my save was fine (though it unexpectedly loaded a little earlier, so I was forced to play the end of the Devon sex scene again, rather than it starting up looking at her ass while she hunted out her panties...).

The only "issue" I had was because I never did get round to replaying the Pink Box event, so I didn't get the tour and sex with Crystal. When talking about it in the lecture hall with Todd, there was a missed bit of dialogue because there were three triggers depending on what happened with Crystal, and all were false for me.

yup i used multi mod i guess that's causing problem

 

[3J1E]

This is a bit of a weird one for me. I'm not into sharing at all and there's quite a lot of things I dislike about this game, forced scenes and bad scripting. But still drawn in just because I like Devon as a LI.

I really liked that the game lets you refuse to share Devon, even if it was only a short alternative scene, as I don't want to go down that path at all. It made me really dislike Todd and misty, their conversation about how they needed to take their time to share with MC and Devon makes me think that the dev will just keep pushing and pushing that path. I don't want to spend the whole game with Todd constantly whining and guilt tripping me to share Devon when I didn't even want anything to do with misty in the first place. I've said no, just want todd and misty to respect that and drop it. I'd be a lot more open to sharing with them if they'd given me a choice about misty in the first place rather than forcing it.

Made me feel less confident going forward about the dev actually respecting player choices and letting you choose who you share with and who you refuse... I realise that this probably just isn't the game for me though!

 

[Adhdclassic]

Too tired to play the whole game again but didn't Misty unknowingly know Todd and MC through a videogame and they assumed he was a boy and Todd found out when they met, she wasn't a boy.

This is a sharing game, you are correct it's not going to be right for you. This will be others sharing their girls with the MC and him doing the same. You have the choice here to not share Devon but as the developer himself says..

Event six has a lot of possible "First's" for Devon. It was a task to make all the possible options happen. I feel like the more we progress the more I won't need to do things like.. Say.. No.. Don't share Devon with your best friend Todd. Though I said I'd make it optional. So I did.
It's going to be a VERY boring game if you didn't.

 

[Anteron]

If you used the mod its probably what borked it. At least I'm assuming so for me OR they did the tried and true "dev messed with the variables because something wasn't working" and it corrupted saves.

I don't use a mod, and as I said, in this game old saves worked for me.

It's a very bad thing if you get locked out of a lot without the hated ntr.

I am not going to lie the part about just a short alternate scene is kind of upsetting, I wish it got equal treatment. Devon is core of the game, and I feel like why even make it optional, if the option DOES NOT REALLY MATTER.

I don't remember that quote from the dev, or I just didn't see it, but I just wish dev gave more to the not sharing path, instesd of including basically a "fake option" in a way.

Look, I know this is a sharing game, and I have no problem with it, but when the dev said he would make the "main girls" optional sharing, I thought this would include at least trying to give EFFORT to the other paths, but its clear he just doesn't clear about the other paths.

And my main issue honestly is Devon, I am pretty much OK sharing anyone else but Devon, maybe one other, but mainly Devon, but the Dev just says you don't matter is what it feels like. Like I said I have no problem with sharing, but I wanted Devon to be special to me, and apparently its bascially forced sharing, or get basically nothing.

I am honestly just let down by this news, I was excited to restart the whole game, I was excited to reach this new content, I was excited to play next update, cause dev said Dean will get some content. But Why should I be excited, when I am told the dev doesn't care about any path, why even have the option to refuse if I don't get equal treatment of paths.

Like I said shairng is fine, but I wanted Devon to be special. I am just letdown and disheartened, was so excited, now just feel empty and trying to find why should I play this game, when the dev doesn't even feel like he cares. Rant over.

So you expected for the MC to be out fucking every girl he can get his hands on, having threesomes, orgies and for Devon to just sit in her room and wait for him to go visit her? This game was never going to be that. She wants to be involved, she wants to join the MC on this crazy sharing adventure that he's going on in college.
Will she demand to always be there? No, I doubt it. But neither will she be ignored, that's how Garth lost her.
Or was it a more vanilla romance game that you were looking for? As much as I love this game, there are many games out there that do the vanilla thing far better.

Then just make this game kinetic then. Like I said it was just a Devon want. Make her non sharing path good too. Dev literally said we can share who we are with from the beginning. Didn't say anything about no content or very very little on those paths. Just don't give choices if this is the route he is going. I actually liked this dev, seems he took good feedback, responded here, guess I was wrong, he is just another liar and bad dev, shame, I was excited for this update.

There's no logic with harem guys. They do this all the time. Go into sharing, swinging, cheating games. Demand optional harem route and the choice not to play core game route. Dev half heartedly complies and gives choices hoping it will draw in a larger pledge base.
Backfires and harem pirates just complain more about the game and still don't financially support the dev.

 

[Wolfram99]

I think there's some fuckery on Aimee path, just the BJ in the dorm gives +10 lust when it is +1 usually.
So you can max out her lust by being vanilla.

Major path bug. The dialogue is if you've met and talked with Jenn.
