VN Ren'Py New Beginnings in Japan [Ch. 2 v.0.6.1] [Shikharsfree]

[Shikharisfree]

I agree, i don't like the fact that Rose and Azumi are the only female LI's either (if they actually are), it kinda just makes EVERY other female character in the game redundant.

Currently only them yeh , because romance has to have an ending it cannot be just sideplots or existing.

For example you mentioned xia earlier , now as lovely as the ladies are together why would she leave her husband she's been married to for 20+ years for kiara?

So yeah , sure natsuko is doable , lana is too , so is naomi.

But again requires money , so if you guys want it. Support us with whatever you can really.

1 Dollar from one person might not be much but 1 dollar from 500 is more than enough to keep the game floating till the end.

That's all ~

( Lol, I'd probably choose Azumi, depending how the story and the game develops ), but, ( and as for me personally, I've got at least 5 devs on patreon that I'm subbed to, ( probably gonna lessen that amount ), so if I could, I would support you, but yeah, not enough diversity, ( so the names I mentioned would make a great addition ), so I'm hoping, but not expecting, nor would I really mind if those are the only 2 female options, ( but right now, the options that has been given, lets just say they are my least favorite characters, ( even though both Azumi and Rose are well made, so believe me, so far I HAVE actually enjoyed the game ), but, as I said, I wouldn't mind if more female romance options were added, like Asa, Ayane, Veronica, and Jennifer, ( IF possible, Veronica and Jennifer I'm unsure of, but Asa and Ayane ).

Veronica most likely not doable since she is locked with evelyn since they were teenagers.

It's why i said lana is possible rather instead since it's the same with her and kiara.

Asa might be doable , because she does work there alot in future but again writer is the rule.


We can do just about everything , we have the machine to do renders. We have a good programmer. Same for the writer.

I keep afloat with my own funds currently the programming and rendering side.

Writer unfortunately already does alot for the stuff i give him , so yeah it would require funds.



But yeah , azumi is pretty cute! enjoy her ig.

 

[Shikharisfree]

is there any android port available for this game??

Few more days , will release it then .

Well, then Lana and Asa it is then, lol, but seriously though, I'd be happy with those 2 being added as options, ( as I prefer the lesbian route more than a m/f route, ( wait, wasn't there a shower scene with one of the girls from, what was it, the yoga class or something!?!? ), anyways, good luck, and great job so far.

The shower scene you are referring to is with Olivia, the dev has already has said, there will be more content between Kiera and Olivia

As for lesbian route, your not forced to kiss a guy even with the romance paths, you can go all out lesbian if that is what you prefer, I prefer lesbian paths myself, but, this is the first game I have enjoyed that much that I am playing all the path options for all the content that is part of the game, I have 6 saved playthroughs so far, one with Azumi path, one with Rose path, one with Keisuke path, one with Damian path and the last one where Kiera is not accepting romance path for any of them where she goes out on her own they all have high corruption and I have one with less corruption with no romance

Updated my compressed Android port of New Beginnings in Japan Chapter 2 to v0.4.4.

Got some basic gestures loaded in: swipe up for save menu, swipe down to hide UI, swipe left to rollback and swipe right to skip. Save files are now stored in the Documents folder. This sometimes means that you may need to close and re-open the port after installing so the save folder is properly created.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the port and I'll see what I can do to get them sorted.

Not reading other comments as I've not finished and want to avoid spoilers, however my first impressions are that the story is good and renders look nice, however the text box is to small and not transparent enough, additionally the spelling and formatting are all over the place.

Problems:
Not capitalizing the first word of sentences
Not capitalizing "i"
To many spaces after commas "ex: hello , what are you doing?"
Little to no punctuation
Numerous spelling mistakes

Example "Yeah i do & I hope i can , thanks to people like you it gets alot easier"
So, no punctuation, some capital I's and some lowercase, to many spaces after comma, alot is two words not one

It just makes reading a visual novel really annoying when grammar is so sloppy.

Additionally, everyone's names appear in the same color, and it makes determining who is who very difficult when there are so many characters.

There is also a bug with the menu music when you enter the save screen it automatically starts playing, and sometimes continues playing over any other music playing.

Not sure why you're getting that bug as it doesn't appear in final build , please consider downloading another mirror.


Secondly , the proofreading is still being done its a huge script so taking time , meanwhile i don't think capitilization of letters should stop one from enjoying story or porn , whichever you prefer.

Lastly we are going to use a new UI soon , so most problems you mentioned will be fixed ~

Thanks for response and glad to hear. Sorry if any of these issues had already been reported, avoiding other comments in case of spoilers. I was mainly focusing on the negative, but the renders and story itself are very good thus far and really enjoying the slow build of characters.

There are very few games that have lesbian only paths with a good story, so huge props. I think after some UI tweaking and proofreading, and maybe some additional SFX / background music for scenes like the rain in the Taxi, it would be a 10/10 in my book.

Apologies again if I came off overly critical, game is a diamond that just needs a final polishing, core is solid.

No no it's all good man lol , I'm just a guy like you who used to play games and like you said , got tired of boring ass linear paths in games.

so decided to make one that makes sense with a good writer along me.


Anyway , yes we are tweaking the UI to have character portraits rather than colord names so you know who is saying who.

As for transparency a mod exists on roughly page 21 i think.

Lastly , np! enjoy the game. considering supporting if you can , and if can't just join the journey ~

I don't understant this game, what is the purpose of the corruption ?? I just finish the last version and I didn't have any sex scene with Kiara... Nothing, start was good then it is just some romance

Corruption in my game differs from most fem protag vn's you've played.

Might surprise you but the girl who gets groped by her father 5 days ago wouldn't be sucking dick in only that much time just cuz someone touched her thigh or ass.

It's gradual corruption , you'll get everything you want eventually but i want it to make sense not just the usual trope of "oh no i have to wear this outfit cuz boss asked me to , oh no he touched my thigh welp time to let him finger me i guess"

So... yeah.

 

[88Michele88]

Hmmmm ... the guys don't seem to be doing well in the poll at the moment.
