VN Ren'Py Move the Chains [v0.2 Bugfix] [MissFortune]

[MissFortune]

How was mc was found innocent after beating an unconscious guy to the death??indeed it all started as self-defense but the moment the guy was unconscious and he kept hitting him he went from defender to aggressor.
Maybe that's one of the white privilege the game keeps mentioning.

There's more to it than what the flashbacks in the Episode 1 implied.

"Keeps mentioning"? It was said once. As a joke. He said "How does a kid like you end up here? You know, white privilege and shit?". A) Teenagers/Young Adults with no prior convictions usually get lighter sentences. B) Wealth in America

. When rich kids get in trouble in America, they're usually white. They have money to grease the right palms and get their charges dropped to something lower. Money talks (e.g. Alvin Kamara's case). This creates a false narrative that white people have it easier, that judges are biased, and thus have it significant easier. Hence privileged.

here's some stuff i noticed/thought about while playing

I wasn't going to comment any more on here but I have to respond to this
Games with single love interests are boring?
I have to strongly disagree
Have you played games like Being a Dik

Sorry but all the harem games I have played have a garbage story and a boring edgelord mc

Harem games are all the same
"guy has a girlfriend who pushes him to bang other girls"
Look at the garbage that is WVM
Barely any story
It's just soulless sex scenes

That is why I HATE harems

Who plays these games for the sex scenes that's what pornhub is for imo

My comments might sound harsh but that is what I belive

your comment sounds narrow and biased because you listed one of the most shallow harem games there is while there are a few that are more than a fuck fest sim. The have compelling plot and character development and are among the top games on this site.
You dont like harem games? Fine. You are welcome to that but dont strawman and expect to get away with it.
I dont like single LI games that much and I could just as easily say how a lot of them are contrived and have obvious plot holes and cutoffs that totally break immersion.
But I know that isn't all of them and just like the harem games I alluded to earlier, there are also some really good ones. Most games in general aren't going to be groundbreaking and single LI games are not exempt. it depends who is writing them. I'm just not into playing a game 8 times to see everything.

He was strawmaning to bud also I'm pretty sure WVM is the most popular harem game on here

Edit - it seems after looking harem hotel is the most popular But WVM is close

It is not. it has a 3..8 rating. maybe if it had a better story it would be higher but it doesnt.

You are right i just looked
Als maybe it isn't as popular as other games because there is no incest.

 

[Canto Forte]

Jocks are pimps in all party medias or the Tate brohers or many media personalities,
most of which use actual escorts and/or their former flames, long list of babes they used to go through all their time during college or uni, to boast their pimp status.

Like in this game or BADI k or VMW or AoA or you name it big finance athletes games,
but more precisely like main stream gossip collumn subjects, most if not all multi million
dollars worth athletes have a long list of hookup worthy willing girls they circle through.

That is IRL, mind you, so, go figure, games about muscle bound athletes
with good body proportions that get free girls every other night are true to life
and are popular.

You only have to look on yo tu be or tabloid interviews to get up to speed with
what most footballers or soccer players or you name it olympic or big money sports
young athletes get to every other night.

True story - Jamie foxx has been going through so many flings with girls
proposterously younger than his own daughter, that she is used to embarassment
and socially disses her father for being a pimp. That guy, mind you, is older than most
characters in our most succcessful AVNs about young protags and not athletic.

Regarding Settings ...

The list of big money athletes/rappers/singers who have successfully beaten
rape charges is huge precisely in the U S of A, where prosecutors and victims
constantly ballance real hefty out of court settlements against fleeting feelings
of justice. No amount of catfishing or jail baiting
has ever kept young girls outta clubs where they could snatch big money ballers
with one night stands.

Could be but even games that dont are rated higher. I doubt smacking incest on it would suddenly make up for eerie behavior of the characters, the racoon mask makeup, and the duck face kisses. Anyway enough of that. I enjoy it for what it is but it's flaws are obvious and would not be my first recommendation, even as a harem game fan.

that's not standard english. proper nouns like should be capitalized (except when you are lazy like me heh). looks like the writer don't know english very well. just looks bad. it's different with "a god" and "God". a god is any god and should not be capitalized, but God is a proper noun refering to the christian god.

And we're expected to buy that when religion in and of itself can't decide on the matter? There's a few different versions of the bible, specifically the King James Version, that don't capitalize the 'god'. We can argue on which is correct or not, doesn't really matter. I personally find reverential capitalization dumb, my opinion. Just because it 'looks bad' doesn't mean it's right or wrong.

Not worth arguing over.

read again what i said though, i'm talking about the mc and his thoughts. he thinks she is asleep and then at least in some parts of the world that would/could be sexual assault, if she was asleep. if that isn't sexual assault where the mc lives, fine. but if it is and he doesn't even reflect on it, to me that paints the mc as pretty reckless if not dumb given his just being released. but if that's how you want to portray him, then there is no problem. i'm just trying to like the mc more, because i don't really like him.

Context is absolutely important. A) she basically sexted him. B) It's been implied that they've been close for years. C) She was laying around in her underwear, with the door unlocked, after inviting him over with said sext - all while being clear awake. D) It'd be different if she invited him over without the sext and chose to do it anyways. E) He was never charged with/for SA, which is covered more later. You're arguing semantics while disregarding context.

Again, clearly awake prior to her underwear even coming off. With ample time to stop him:

If you don't like the question mark thing, cool? It doesn't stick around more than a few seconds anyways.

I haven't played this yet Can you avoid the scene where the mc touches her in bed
It's too creepy for me tbh

You can spank her (playfully) to wake her up, or avoid the scene as a whole. It won't lock you out of her route.

Thanks' for answering I would have given a thumbs up but I reached my limit

For anyone wondering where the public update is: It's coming in a bit. Have to package the distributions and upload them. Should be a couple hours, tops.

- I've fixed the audio leveling issues. This was due to the channel the queued audio was on. That's my bad. I've added them to the SFX channel, still might need some work. But I'll need some feedback from a wider group to gauge if it's better or not.

- I've lowered the frequency of the wolf transition, should now only appear every 2-3k lines of dialogue/code or so.

- Text Properties should be fixed. It was due to an extra space on an image path. Will be adding font choices, among other smaller QoL changes to it eventually. As of right now, it's rather bare beyond stroke.

- Updated script with a "Politically Correct" Patch, felt like "Snowflake Edition" would've been too polarizing. Removes/Changes most political/sociopolitical situations/dialogue. Sans the sparse usage of 'ni**a' (thanks for censoring, F95.) and thing on renders themselves, because if that's too much for you, you're beyond help. I can't say for sure if it'll make you start over or not, so just be aware of that. I imagine it'll work fine if you implement the patch in Episode 2, without having it in Episode 1, though.

- Added Tier pages for all Patreon/SS users. Still needs a bit of design love, but it's good enough for right now.

- Will be holding back on the character page(s) for now. Need to fix some stuff up. Will be introduced with Episode 2, where they might matter a little more.

- Typos.

Snowflake Edition

I prefer this more. It gives it character. The other name is just meh.

but you are wrong because king james does capitalize God and so does every other bible versions. where have you seen otherwise? maybe you confuse it with pronouns, such as he instead of He.
it's not about showing reverence to capitalize Christian, that's just proper english. i read you're gonna release your game on steam. i think it could do very well. you should consider if it's really more important to make a petty point of showing irreverence to religious people instead of looking professional by just using proper standard english.

the fact that you still bring up her being awake when my entire point is about the fact that he thinks she is asleep shows you fail to understand what i'm saying. it's nothing to do with semantics, all context. and it's been mentioned in the thread what he was sent to prison for so i know

alright, i've said my piece. time to move on
