VN Ren'Py New Year's Day(e) [Ch. 5 v0.5.0] [Jonesy]

[Deleted member 7180813]

If I understand the dialog right way then yes, we do

I mean this deeply when I say it, thank you for actually paying attention to the story
and dialogue. It get's so frustrating when people don't and post things on here that never
actually paid attention and just look for porn. Like it or not, thank you to everyone that
actually reads Jonesy's amazing stories.

I won't give spoilers but... maaaayyyybeeee hahahaa

Feel free to spoil me. I'm about to replay the games and I'm trying to decide whether to use the patch.

I just thought of something when i saw this. I think it would be great if when they take this, Heather's ghost shows in the background that only the family members can see her.

Don't patch them. There is a legit reason things are the way they are.
Jonesy will tell you I am not a fan of "steps", but this isn't one of those cases
where the creator intended the game to be patched to remove it because a DL site
threatened to block content if they didn't. CE and NYD(e) are released as intended.
Just please let the story do it's thing

I might have to consider that for the next peace of art I do.
Funny thing is, this image is on my list to get a treatment hahaha

I hope the Dev brings back Molly his sister and she really wasn't heather. That would be upsetting. Let Molly come back and join the group. I hate when Dev's introduce females at the beginning and then all of a sudden later we learn that she was around the whole time as the wife but then she dies.

You act as if that's a common trope. What other game has even done that?

I forgot the name of the games but I played a couple of games that were like that. Sorry if I got something wrong.

 

[Deleted member 7180813]

I kinda have to agree with Sugoda. I've never read any ANV like that.
I'm not saying it hasn't happened just that it's super rare.
In the end, all that matters is how similarities, intentionally or not are
handled. So many AVNs are, in fact, copy and pastes of each other.
Some are just inspired by others and some times like mindedness
happens and one has nothing at all to do with another.
Not going to spoil anything, but some revelations might not be
for you Woodstock hahaha

But you are more than welcome to DM me and discuss in private

Hey Everyone!


Thanks for the overwhelming support for the release of Chapter 5!


I have kinda unplugged from everything for a couple of weeks for some much needed "me" time. I noticed some questions so here are some answers:


Q: Why aren't my old saves working??


A: Honestly, I'm not sure. About 2/3 of the way through the development of Ch5, my Ren'Py got really messed up. I had to restore from a backup. Luckily, I didn't lose much, but I have a feeling that when that happened, it caused all the issues with the old saves. A few friends of mine on

have been sifting through the code in an effort to find the problem to no avail. Your best bet is to skip back through to the end of Ch4. I know that's a pain. Sorry!


Q: What happened to the HD version that was posted on

A: After I released the "HD" versions, I was notified that many of the images were missing. In an effort to minimize the problem I took the posts down until I am able to restore the missing images. I will then repost them.


Q: What the hell, Jonesy?? Is that really happening? What kind of story is this? For real??


A: Yeah, I know, right?! It's crazy!

For those of you who have deleted their Meta apps, twitter/X, or any other social media but still want to be in the loop, I've started a Bluesky account. I'll be making an effort to keep up with any correspondence there as well, but I really don't even know how it works yet - I just signed up. =P

That's it for now. I'm gonna get back to work on Chapter 3 of Siren Song. *Singing "On the Road Again*...

Love Y'all,

How to see Patreon image if I'm a Subscribestar supporter?

How to see Patreon image if I'm a Subscribestar supporter?

I'll ask

 

[Deleted member 7180813]

If you are on Subscribestar, you get 2 out of the 3 images.
If you want the third image you have to pay of that separately.
They are meant as a reward/perk for the different platforms

I hope that helps all of our awesome Subscribestar members! haha

By Lauren do you mean Heather? Kinda confused here.

Randall was traumatized by the events you speak of, never accepted it as normal and repressed it all.
He knew who he married and repressed that as well as he was so in love with her. He wanted all the skeletons
to stay in the closet. He just wanted a happy normal life with his soulmate. The women he loved more than anything.
He was wiling to accept anything as long as it all remained "Heather's Little Secrets".

As for all the Becky hate. Heather confided everything in Becky. So yes Becky knew. They were bestfriends
sharing an intimate relationship with Randall. Becky was there for pretty much all of Randall's life growing up
as his best friend and confidant. She pretty much held his hand the entire course of his repression. She knew he
was in denial about everything. But you don't wake a sleepwalker, as they say. And she respected his boundaries
in that. As well as Heather's and their marriage. It's easy to get mad at her, but what would you do as someone
that close to the situation? A situation that may or may not have effected you're own outlook and "kinks".
Like Becky's relationship with Olivia, for instance.

It's not about being dumb or incapable. Randall has deliberately repressed these memories so that come out
in his dreams. Easy peasy

I hope this helped
