VN Ren'Py My Dorm [v0.24.0 S3 Ch.4] [Tropecita Games]

[Trope95]

Just logged on and I see that the game was leaked. Someone couldn't keep it in their pants for two days?

Probably won't get to play it until Thursday anyway, tired today and Filter/Ministry/Rob Zombie/Alice Cooper concert on Wednesday.

Looking forward to playing it.

Enjoy the concert! The girls will be waiting for you on Thursday!

Everyone is optional.
If you say it because of her looks there is an option to change it.
If you say it because of her sexual tendencies, there is an option about it also.

It's none of the above...

Luckily it was only 29 hours early.
For me, the worst is not that it got leaked, it's that the leak forced me to change my schedule for today. I planned on developing a scene I've been battling with for some time and I had to park it because of the leak, since it was here, I had to publish it on the other sites I publish it personally. I wasn't ready for it, so I had to upload the files to the servers I hadn't uploaded it previously (one thing is that it got leaked, but giving the leaker monetary benefits goes against everything I believe in) and re-do some OPs here (the leaker was so dumb as to not knowing how to copy/paste a changelog) and on those sites.

Now I got to ask, how quick was the game showing up in latest updates this time? You post it, takes a couple days, someone else leaks it and it was right away?

TropecitaGames I know you're probably completely put off on ever doing more free trials, but I was thinking, if you were ever to consider doing it again, i think in stead of doing it when the game is released for the tear being free trialed, perhaps having something less shareable active for that tier. Like a poll or something. At worst with a poll, assuming you do stuff like polls in the first place, is that someone will share the poll with a screenshot. Nothing to lose, and everything to gain.

That's because the leaker was someone from F95's staff. He leaked and promoted it automatically. I guess he wanted some medals.

I enabled the free trial some days ago, before the release for that tier, and the idea was to keep it for one or two months, look at the results, and perhaps add the immediate upper tiers. Looking at the experience, the upper tiers (3€ and 5€) are discarded for now. But I will keep the lower tier for the time I planned originally.
I'm not really mad at the leak, I'm mad at how it has been done. By someone from F95's personnel, when they know I publish it regularly, and to only win 29 hours. The leaker has killed an afternoon/evening of development because he has forced me to change my plans. Instead of uploading the game to other servers during the night, I have done it during my dev time, I have had to update posts on several sites today instead of tomorrow, and, worse of all, doing those things has broken my momentum while I was writing a scene I've been battling with for some days. I haven't written a word since the leak.
That won't serve as an excuse to delay the next update. The rest of the players shouldn't be punished for one individual's actions. I will make up for this afternoon/evening during the (approximately) two weeks left to publish it.

Oh wow, ok. That makes sense. Sorry for speaking without knowing all the facts

 

[Uthuriel]

I really like the change to Emma.
With the new hair she looks way way better.
The scene with her though... a bit nauseating...
Also not a huge fan of her yelling that she wants a son.

Daughters are always better...

Maybe something that should be left ambiguous...

 

[Uthuriel]

Great update.

The scene with Scarlett, especially what happened at the end was just beautiful.

 

[SlapE]

Awesome update trop, finished it yesterday but forgot to post

The main thing I wanna say about the update is that... Scarlett must be protected

That whole section with her was great, especially at the end.

 

[Glapperr]

Well
Thanks for the updates and the works
Series like this, even though it doesn't have Gallery section yet its great
With story like this, you forgot to fap
Not Blueballing but when the story were pretty good
You just forgot about fapping
Even theres a AVN that has Gallery and has Unlock features too, but when the story itself were already good
You forgot to check the gallery itself
Keep up the good work




Love you

Wow, TropecitaGames ; you keep topping yourself what a "barbaric" (gorgerous) update! loved every single minute of it!
Really you improved a lot with the renders and the camara perspectives, the unfolding story, breaking your own records
standing ovations from my side!
Kudos!

ty for having compressed in the OP. tired of getting spoilers in all the threads lately hunting for it because of the silly change.

also: my save was at the previous last screen

, trying to load it would cause error and game would start from the very beginning (yes, I use the multimod but it does it vanilla too). luckuly the most recent autosave loads fine though.

 

[OleJackRipper]

Still a fun game.
I still like it.

But the need for editing has increased. I don't think I'm the only one who thinks so.

strange, no problems from that point on, (used Bobs Update patch) not even needed to down the taboo patch

I disagree on the changes to Emma, it's made her face look longer and it's disconcerting to me but I agree on your second statement 100%.

The new look reminds me of the myriad pseudo-Asian games where you have three routes but only two of them get any real content. (deliberately vague here so as not to add those tags to any searches in this thread)

 

[___abbas___]

a great update . also Scarlett is so darn cute in this , i think this is the first update to really make her shine.

 

[Tokenugget]

A good update... can't wait for all my babies momma's to be popping a big tummy.

No need to be sorry
You know I always have been transparent about everything I do around the game, so feel free to ask anything.

Nauseating in what sense?
The change between son/daughter in dialogue is a way to show Emma's wavering personality. Before sex she wants a daughter (to dress her in pink), but during sex she wants a son because she only can think about dick in that moment. She has won some maturity, but she continues being Emma.

Great update.

The scene with Scarlett, especially what happened at the end was just beautiful.

Thanks, Uthuriel!
She needed her special moment. Until now she almost has been in Daphne's shadow, like they were a pack. Those scenes served to make her an individual LI who shines by herself.
For me, the sex scene is the less important one character-developing-wise, the dialogue during the date, and before/after sex is more important.

Awesome update trop, finished it yesterday but forgot to post

Thanks, SlapE!
I wanted a not-so-perfect date to show her in a different light from the other dates the MC has had.
The chat on the couch shows her as someone whose plans have been surpassed by reality.
She set up the date to look like the '50s and '60s sitcoms she watched. Although it hasn't appeared in dialogue, she is a fan of "I Love Lucy", "Bewitched", and those types of shows. All the paraphernalia was designed with her as the perfect housewife from those shows cooking for her husband. Her plan went to hell because of an incorrect choice of cheese.
The date (before going to the bedroom) revolves around her willingness to please her man, and the plug only confirms it. That goes on the line of the Truth or Dare game
And the last part of the scene just shows her that she doesn't need to look perfect to be loved by the MC. She already is (perfect and loved).

Thanks, Glapperr!
I've always said My Dorm is more about the story and the characters' feelings than the sex scenes (although I love them). Call me cheesy
The gallery will be a feature for Season 2, and once implemented there, it will be migrated to Season 1.

You don't need to install the multimod. It's already integrated into the game (except for the family module) because RiamMar is a so nice guy!
I don't understand why you got the error. I tested it on 3 computers before releasing and I didn't got any error message.

Still a fun game.

But the need for editing has increased. I don't think I'm the only one who thinks so.

When you talk about editing, do you mean proofreading? There are two native speakers proofreading every update before the release. Have you found any mistakes?

Emma's hairstyle changes (like Scarlett's) are there to show how she is maturing. I loved her first hairstyle, but it was childish, as she was.
After the night at the Twins (and getting praised by the MC for the change) she makes up her mind and acknowledges to herself her feelings about the MC, so she keeps that hairstyle (same as Scarlett returning to her "first kiss hairstyle" for the date).
After finally getting laid and somewhat becoming (for herself) the Hen-Queen of the chicken coop, she needed a new hairstyle and a new makeup
