Was going to have a look at this. But this image, where the girl has the same texture on her skin & hair as the background, really put me off.
Are all images in this game this bad?

hmm, your sig-quote keeps confirming itself- that very question of yours kinda lacks common sense:unsure:
did you really have take one image from the op-previews, and asked if all others images are bad/good as that one?

on more serious note - the game has no great graphics, even for 720p, yep.
yet this is not a game/dev "fishing support" with eye-catching wow images, rather with a complex story/unique gaming universe, plenty of interactions and a lot of actions;)

Obviously not, no.
I looked at all of the images and they were all utter shit, in terms of quality. The one I chose was, quite obviously, the one that best exemplified the point. (y)
Could've picked any image from the OP, they're all awful, but the one I chose was the funniest, to me.
Also, let's not forget, the images in the OP should be representative of the images in the game. So it's not lacking any common sense to look at their crappy quality and ask if they are really this bad.

Thanks, thought that would be the case, but that's why I asked a) because they may have been rendered better, in subsequent updates and the OP images may not have been updated, or b) to have my suspicion confirmed.
From what you've said, it's clearly b)
This, quite clearly, follows a common sense approach - suspect something? Verify/validate/refute that suspicion first, before making a decision affected by the suspicion.
Again, thank you for validating that the quality of in-game images are as shit as they appear in the OP.
Generally agree on your point re "substance over style", but (from those images and your comment) this game has 0.0 style, so doesn't require much, in the way of substance, to win out.
It's a very low bar.

Planty of errors, i waiting to 1.5 and play the 1.4 part again then
What are you talking about, what a lot of errors?

Did you download last version 1.4 which was uploaded here yesterday in OP or you still play previous v1.4 ?

Because last v1.4 which I shared yesterday from patreon is not bugged, I played few times (various paths) and I had only one small bug but if you still play first v1.4 which was released here month ago then it was a beta version with many bugs.

I'm just writing to tell you that I have the new PC, I'm finishing the renders and I started coding 1.5. from now on I'll be able to do renders and coding at the same time. (first I had to do all the renders and then I was coding since my PC was freezing during the renders).

When will be 1.5 released
As soon as it is ready, 7/15 days, it depends on the problems I will encounter during coding.
I have planned everything, if there are no contingencies it can be ready in 7 days, but I am now aware that during this phase there is always something I had not thought of.
The positive side is that I have a small team of people who help me and who will see the progress in real time, so when the version comes out most of the bugs will have already been fixed.

HoneyGames the new rendering looks great! If you are able to redo all the renderings I think your game will go top of the list for most people. Because the plot and the many characters interacting each other are really a quite unique feature, top of the class, while the downsides are the quality of the images, spelling errors and a few bugs (but you have been fixing those aspects as well).
Out of curiosity, what Graphic Card and CPU are you using in the new PC?

redoing all the renderings would be too long a job and I believe that fans of the game would not be happy to have to wait so long. I'm redoing some scenes, I'll redo some scenes, but not all of them. Some locations were really bad quality (Riley's office, the park... already with the old computer I made new renderings differently for some locations like downtown, maud's home). I don't want to waste too much time but for sure I'll redo some things. My priority is still to continue the game, not to slow down. For the future for sure I will have a game with better renderings.
Some of the new scenes I'm doing with animations, to try them out.

Now I'm working with 32 Giga RAM and a 6 GB video card. Until a week ago I was working with 8 GB Ram and a 1 GB video card. As soon as it will be easier to find the video cards I'll take another step up and get a card with more RAM but right now they are very rare and it's hard to find them, I had to wait a month before I could get it and my old PC was struggling more and more.

I completely understand that. Maybe you could remake a few with each new release, so that at the end the graphics are all the same quality. It's just an idea I don't know if you are able to manage such work.

Now I'm working with 32 Giga RAM and a 6 GB video card.
I was curious about the GPU model, have you got an Nvidia Quadro or a gamers' card like a GeForce? Quadro have got more stable drivers and produce a cleaner output, but they are really expensive compared to gamers cards with the same RAM.

I wanted a "Quadro" but it wasn't worth it. The higher cost is not worth the difference in performance. To get a real upgrade I should have taken a more powerful Quadro. If the game goes well then I will take a powerful Quadro. I have a 2060. I think that in a year, if the situation of the graphics cards will have stabilized I will upgrade... or Quadro or 3060 etc... we will see
I have already made a very big upgrade anyway

10 year old gpu? Ouch, that must be really hard going.
Mind you, I was struggling with my old i3 and integrated graphics until I built a whole new rig around an i7 9700k, 32gb ram and an 11gb Rtx 2080Ti (Cyberpunk, baby!). My god the difference...literally everything gets played in 4k and on highest. Poor old Ps4 pro sits dusty on the shelf :D

Glad the dev got a good upgrade though and will cut down his work time.
