Thanks for the kinds wordsThe supernatural elements of the game reminded of Dredge. I like that there is something else going on in the town to investigate along with the main theme of the game (NTS) since it gives the MC and Suzie possible reasons to move around the island and meet different people.
So far there doesn't seem to be a strong a sub/dom dynamic to Anon and Suzie which is very much like since alot of NTS and NTR games kinda end up going that way. This somehow seems more fun and dynamic.
As for the Art assets it looks pretty consistent which is the most important thing for AI based stuff, and the small variations are not too distracting for the most part.
The limited free room can be interesting but there needs to be more; maybe bonus events etc. beyond just the pixel hunting style stuff like polaroid to make it more meaningful to shift styles from the VN etc.
All in all pretty good so far, best of luck to the dev.
(P.S. to the dev if the please don't get into an argument with people on AI people just have wind takes on both sides of the argument with very little in the way of nuance... like hey you are "stealing Art because using AI" while being on a pirate site. Art is really expensive I understand projects like these wouldn't exactly exist with AI, I get that Artists are getting the short end of the stick but unfortunately the gene is out the bottle now. As I 100% get that no results from an AI is just 1 and done without a significant amount of "post-processing" to get it into a useable state.)
Checked Dredge out, looks cool.
I agree with you on the free-roam, and exploration events are definitely planned, otherwise I wouldn't bother making a freeroam system haha.
Thank you for the support, and I'm glad you liked the game!BananaCreamGames Well, I finished the current build(I somehow missed the first of the Ep2 polaroids). I like what I saw so far, especially the line about asking her if she would make out with a guy or GIRL(would be my choice), if he wanted her to do so. You have a new patron, for now at least, I like the characters so far and the story, as long as it doesn't get too dark.
I lived in the lifestyle for about 15 years, until covid did a number on me. Me and my partner never played alone nor did we do the cuckold thing. We either fucked while others watched us, did threesomes or couple swapping, in the same room. I even acted as a bull, along with my partner, for a cuckold guy, who was a cool person, fwiw. I just never could put myself in that situation and I never wanted to put her in that type of situation either. We just liked to have sex around or with others. Also, no playing with others without both of us involved, not a true open relationship. It was just safer that way, both emotionally and in regards to possible stds. When we did couple swap or have a threesome, always use condoms.
It is really rare to find a well written story that ticks my boxes, with good characters, both artistically and emotionally. So many games out there that are either vanilla, harem or cuckold only. Not many for those of from the swingers lifestyle.
I completely understand you not wanting to be the cuckold. There will be situations where you might doubt Suzie's loyalty but in the end, I plan on keeping her true. (Maybe an additional NTR heavy route after game is done)
Ren'py distributions are sometimes flagged as a false positives.The exe got deleted by win defefender. A virus apparently...
I didn't archive the code (except for the gallery unlock code with the password). So you can see everything. Even the archived part is easily 'unren'-able. There are no shady python modules used in the code either. What I distributed is clean.
Huh. Didn't know linux to be so case-sensitive. I'll re-release along with other fixes in a week or two. Thanks!Not a blocker, but Ren’Py throws this exception when launching 0.2:
