Ren'Py Abandoned Nemesis Party [v0.09.2 Final Scenes Update] [NemesisGames]

[NemesisGames]

July 1 Development Log:

I’d say approximately 90% of the renders planned for v0.09 are done.

I’m still holding off on a release date announcement, since even though this is a smaller update, I’d like to do bug testing before release.

Not much to report - progress on the scenes now mostly revolves around inserting renders and finishing the script. As always, the greatest challenge is finding time.

my man we need to get you some hdris for that sad looking blank background. Or if you cant do hdris because software rendering or too resource intensive, take an image like the attached-

and put it on a huge primitive plane behind the scene, the viewer will never know the difference.

All the outside renders have a transparent skydome which is temporarily overlayed on “scene black”, so it’s just a matter of switching out the scene black for a decent background. That said, this hasn’t been a top priority for me since I assume players are too busy counting the freckles on Tara’s ass to notice any stars in the sky.

That's a reasonable enough.

Some of us can multitask.

July 3 Development Log:

I’ve been thinking lately about how it would be easy to implement a vanilla mode of sorts, by setting an if statement during the main game loop, so that when you’ve fallen below 5, it will bump you up to 6 or greater.

This would mean that regardless of letting bad rumors spread unchecked, or your choices among the girls, you would always get the vanilla route.

The easier method would be to set Nemesis Score to 1,000. However, then the scorebar would always be stuck maxed out, and vanilla players would never get the feeling of the girls reacting to their choices.

And of course, all this would defeat the purpose of the actual gameplay of Nemesis Party, since your rival is never actually a threat. I still wouldn’t be able to call this a “harem mode”, since harem fans are often outraged at the mere presence of a sexual competitor in the game—even if he stands no chance.

Tara looks so hot I would totally let her cuck me.

July 6 Development Log:

Occasionally it's hard to remember that long silence in the months after an update is normal. Everyone is quietly waiting. Still, even if all my fans were to disappear overnight, development would continue, as I have many goals to keep me interested. Cheesy as it sounds, the greatest reward for me is overcoming the many challenges while creating an update -- not in the release itself.

Every update feels like death by a million cuts and v0.09 is no different. 99% of the work only takes 1% of my time, and the remaining 1% to be done takes 99% of my time. Or that's how it feels anyway. For example, the bulk of Jasmine and Tara's scenes are done, but completing the hundred of tiny details like transitional renders and clearing sprites is something that will take me the next six hours.

Seeking Volunteer Bug Testers For v0.09


It’s that time again. Version 0.09 is ready for testing.

If interested, please leave a message here.

The version will be sent to bug-testers by July 20 at the latest, with feedback needed a week later, by July 27th.

My expectations are as follows:

1. Play the game from start to finish.
2. Tell me what issues you had, regarding bugs, as well as enjoyment.
3. Keeping an eye out specifically for these problems is helpful, but not a requirement:

• Speech bubbles in a strange spot.
• Broken animations.
• Images out of place.
• Inaccurate score or points.
• Story confusion or disinterest.

I'm bisexual and I find it much more interesting when there are relationships with both genders.

We dont get enough visual novels fr. Its either straight or gay. And if there’s Bi content its like futa/trans. So sad.

July 21 Development Log:

Polishing before release continues: de-noising renders, fixing bugs, and adding details.

As I finalize v0.09, here’s some thoughts for v0.10:

- Holy fuck, the backend code has become a mess again. I need to clean and organize it.
- Rethinking an old idea: highlighting the sprites themselves on the main party screen to show whether they have activities to do.
- There’s 1,000 quality improvements I want to make, but I’ve been fighting off my inner perfectionist until the main story of Act I is finished.
- During upcoming revision of rumors, I’ve been contemplating expanding those rumors into full-blown scenes of whether they’re true or not. That’d make them more of an objective than just an obstacle - but might frustrate players since chance plays a role in which rumor gets played.

Is it just me or does his ass look smaller?

Roll your hips forward like in her pose, and you’ll note your ass appears smaller, too.

No cause for alarm - I have not, in fact, shrunk the size of Tara’s gargantuan ass.

Hey, any idea when the new update coming?

Nice! So it's soon. By the way, congrats for the idea. Something different as a game and very interesting. Hope that can be a lot of content. I'd help with ideas or something if you need.
