VN Ren'Py Messy Academy [v0.20.5] [Messy Studios]

[Mahgni Mada]

Update 0.13 will be out to the public on Sept 4th ^^ and it has all of that included. With the way it handles jumping to day 19 during the confession, you'll choose which girl and it'll unlock things for her. But when there's upcoming content in the future that plays off of letting players unlock sexual things with other girls or other special moments while dating someone, it'll assume you've went through the game building affection.

So with that, we're hoping to have this patching of updates working before then. That way it should be only a one time thing for players to do with starting a fresh game and work their way on choices to have their save file ready for patches, or if players have save files for previous updates. Let's say update 0.11, we'd like to have it working so that someone with saved data from that update can download update 0.14, patch it onto their update 0.11 version and if they left off on day 17. They'll begin right there and can still have what stats they worked on from before. ^^

Sorry again for the late reply. That's all exciting to know, and I'm very much looking forward to Friday then I know it's cheesy, but just so you know I wish you the best with this project, it's not easy to create and collaborate something like this, especially with whats happening in the world right now. I can tell you're very passionate about fulfilling your vision, and I want to see it be successful for you after following the things you put out for many years. Good luck and stay safe

Thanks! ^^ We're pretty shocked with how well things have been on the funding side, as aside from the writing and engine work. It's the main source for the art assets and music currently, with hopes of bringing on a programmer to help out on that end by early next year if things keep up.

Oddly enough MA is approaching 1 year since we first released update 0.01, so we've come quite a long way since our first game update and managed to reach our first year, keeping up with monthly game updates without delays. We're actually going to have a public post about reaching our 1 year mark on our patreon open to the public to see on September 6th. It'll be a reflecting back kind of post just detailing much of the behind the scenes thoughts and stuff a few of us on the team recall when starting.

That would be a interesting read.

Also are you seriously telling me the project only started development one year ago?! Some people don’t even finish one version in that amount of time let alone this many! :O

 

[Messy Studios]

That would be a interesting read.

^^ It'll be a fun read for sure, plus there's some extra goodies for our supporters and fans to enjoy. While not the most exciting, it might prove to be a bit fun as part of the looking back on how the game looked.

Either way, once that post is made. I'll make mentions of it publicly here in the thread and on other sites, etc.

It's crazy! It doesn't even feel like it's been that long since things started. In a sense, real work began during summer of 2019 with pre-planning for the project and also before that was the comic. (Still dislike the comic to this day, try to forget about it.)

It's hard to believe, but we're about 55% or so into the project being done at this point. That's mainly writing and engine work, along with plenty of cg art to be added with full focus leading into next year. But things are looking pretty good for our rough targeted finish date of Winter of 2021 based on our update sizes each month.

Things of course could pop up for bumps in the road, but luckily even the few bumps in the road during this first year of the project were tackled pretty well and didn't slow us down too badly. ^^

I thought this was 0.14? I'm a bit confused.

Missing badly "diaper" in taglist...
If i would have known that crap, then i would have saved the download bandwidth.
No kinkshaming - to each their own. But there are people who are absolutely not into it.
No offence, but they could be warned before all!
Good luck with your project though

I thought this was 0.14? I'm a bit confused.

Last public update was update 0.12. My post a few days back mentioning things touched on both update 0.13 & 0.14, with the later being patreon exclusive and just released tonight.

Update 0.13 big features is the main girl's route part 1's added.

Update 0.14 big features is the side girl's route part 1's added.

(Sorry for any confusion >.< )

Sadly there isn't a "diaper" tag. Otherwise I would instantly add it to the thread taglist. Sorry about that.

To be fair, the information on the OP has a summary for the game details both a quick overview and story details. Which the overview's first line of text is "Messy Academy is an 18+ adult/porn visual novel that focuses on diapers!"

I understand some choose not to read anything and try a game with a surprise approach, aside from knowing the tags briefly. So sadly it is what it is, but yeah. If a "diaper" tag ever gets added, it'll be one of the first things added to this thread. Sorry about the issues, thank you! ^^

 

[ogr blanc]

so i gotta ask, in the "AVOIDABLE NTR" description it says:
"In Bridget and Lola's routes, there is no avoiding NTR aspects unlike days 1-19"

so is it avoidable, or not? or is it avoidable in the sense that you can pick the other routes that doesnt have it?

I wish there was a diaper tag would make searching for these types of games a hell of a lot easier and also keep any potential trolls away!

To try and explain it simply, the game begins on day 1 and then goes up to day 19 before routes begins. So day 1-19 can be seen as the common route? You'll get a good sense of characters and for NTR aspects they should be avoidable when it comes to those two girls, there is some hinting at it to let players know to avoid their route later. But nothing that should be forced or extreme, think subtle hinting with choices to look into it further to confirm it more.

To answer the question, it's avoidable in the sense of what's mentioned above. Then you avoid Bridget or Lola's route if you don't want to see any NTR on the extreme level, which is where it'd take place.

(Sorry if that's not really considered "Avoidable". I'm still trying to find the correct wording, as I can see some will still argue that it's not avoidable. But rather cut content they can't check out if they like qualities with Lola and Bridget, but dislike NTR. Simply put, sadly their personal route stories focus on NTR or aspects of it.)

I wish there was a diaper tag would make searching for these types of games a hell of a lot easier and also keep any potential trolls away!

I'm curious as to why there isn't some tags still, it feels like there's some missing that would be useful. Nothing on the levels of vndb tags, but maybe it'd be a decent time to have some new tags added.

its not that hard to explain actually, just say, if either
A)those 2 routes have POTENTIAL NTR that is AVOIDABLE(meaning those 2 routes have the possibility of ntr if you want).
or
B)those 2 routes have NTR that is UNAVOIDABLE(but ntr is only on those 2 routes).

when you try and explain the day thing it just add to the misinformation. if its avoidable, then you say how you can avoid it, if it isnt, you say that by picking either of those 2 routes you will have to deal with ntr.

when you say avoidable ntr it gives the impression that its completely avoidable. however, your explanation now makes it seems like those 2 routes have FORCED NTR instead.

my advice to avoid headache is to change the ntr description to:

ABOUT NTR
Bridget's route and Lola's route have UNAVOIDABLE NTR. The other routes are NTR FREE.

Yep it’s just a shame that most of these types of games on that website are only in Japanese since I’m too lazy to learn how to read Japanese.....

Thank you for the explaining, I'll change it to "Bridget's route and Lola's route have unavoidable NTR. The other routes are NTR free."

It isn't my wish to misinform anyone or mislead of course, it's just that NTR has had too many complaints brought up before and it seems to be one of those subjects that differs from person to person too. Hence the whole warning being there to try and be as crystal clear as to what the NTR content is in our game and let players enjoy the game in whichever way they will enjoy it as.

im not into ntr, but its a kink alot of people are into, so long you explain everything right and tell us from the start how the ntr is, most people wont have a problem. good luck with your project.
