VN Ren'Py NSFW [rawmagic] [Development Thread]

[Raw Magic]

Hello, everyone. My name is Rawmagic, and I have an invitation for you. But before that, I want to share a story.

Just like Martin, I have a dream. My dream is to create a 'AAA porn game.' I know, I know, you've heard it before. But it's serious. I've been thinking about it for a long time. I love stories, I love games, and I love adult content. I've always been saddened by the lack of good adult games out there, especially those with a big-budget feel. So, I've always dreamt of creating one. There's just one tiny problem. I don't have any of the necessary skills to make one, nor do I have a budget of a few million dollars. And no team either—just a few hurdles along the way.

But, as the saying goes, the great journey starts with just a lewd render (I'm pretty sure it's something like that). That's why we're going to create some games together before making the game of our dreams. I don't know how many yet, but the idea is to create games that grow in complexity until we have enough to make a AAA-style game.

That's why I want to invite you to join me on this journey, from the half-A game to the triple-A game (yeah, maybe this will become the campaign jingle).

And you might be wondering, was this mini-speech really necessary? The answer is yes. Yes, because the heart of this process will be the COMMUNITY (besides women wanting to have sex with the MC for no apparent reason).

I want the community to be as involved as possible in the game development. I'm not exactly sure how that will work yet, but it's something we'll figure out together. I have some ideas, but we'll have to discover if they'll work or not.

 

[Raw Magic]

So, here we go. The first game on this journey will be NSFW - a porn anthology (the name is kind of a placeholder for now). As the name might make obvious, the game will be a collection of short stories. There are a few reasons why I chose this style instead of a longer game:

1. I have a very slow PC. Each render takes about 2 hours to finish. This makes it difficult to complete chapters of a longer game, and with longer chapters, it's harder to start involving the community. I'd like to do that as quickly as possible.

2. Longer games tend to take a while to get to the "important scenes." This isn't a problem in itself because character development is always good. However, with the speed of my machine, it would take almost a year for things to start heating up in the game. With anthologies, we can go from cold to flamin hot in every episode.

3. I love anthologies. Simple as that, haha.


The first story is 95% ready, and I'll make it available here for you to get an idea. However, there are some warnings:

1. IT'S NOT THE RELEASE VERSION YET. There are still some very obvious flaws. For example, the character is without pants, and in the next animation, the pants come back. I set the animation to render but only checked the result 18 hours later when it finished. There are still some clips in the clothes. These things will be fixed for the final version. As I said before, I wanted to start showing the stories as soon as possible and didn't want to get stuck in the loop of fixing errors and then messing everything up (been there before). So, I set a deadline of 3 weeks to do everything. I couldn't finish 100%, so it's just a general idea for now.

2. IT'S INTENTIONALLY VERY SHORT, very short indeed. I tried to make a longer story before, and in the middle of it, I got all tangled up and lost a good part of the work. So I decided to start slower, as slow as possible.



So that's it. I'll put the link below. If you like something more polished, wait for the final version. it should be out in about 2 weeks (in addition to fixing errors and redoing some renders, there's an extra detail I want to add, but I'll talk about that later).

Hey, I played the scene. I liked it. I can see the potential in a collection of short stories.
I do proofreading here on F95; if you would like help in that area, hit me up.

It would be great. I speak English, but I'm not a native American, so there are many things, especially expressions and jokes, that it's quite difficult for me to know if they're working or not (I'm much funnier in my native language, I promise).
I'll message you

 

[Raw Magic]

Hey folks! All the renders for the first release are already in the rendering queue, so just gotta wait for them to finish. The estimate is Friday by the end of the day or Saturday morning, we'll see.

Also, there's something else I wanted to talk about. Like I mentioned, I want to involve the community as much as possible in the game, but I'm still figuring out some initiatives. The first one is that after each release, I'll let the community choose the next storyline. I won't tell the details of the story, just show the characters and maybe throw out some basic ideas. What do you guys think?


Giving you a little spoiler already, the two contenders for the next one will be these here. I'll open a poll to choose between the two after the public release of this story, and I'll throw out some ideas about their background, but nothing too revealing. So, what's your favorite?

 

[Raw Magic]

Hey, guys! Finally, the first release is ready. I couldn't nail down 100% of what I wanted for this release, but I had set a goal to finish it by Friday (yesterday). Some things, like image and sound handling, are still on the to-do list. Didn't want to lose another day, so I'll save those details for the next update (or maybe do a bugfix for them later).

The only thing I added compared to the previous story was a little narrative. I thought it'd be cooler to have a "why" instead of just standalone tales. The lore is that you revive these stories through magical stones called Flash, and you're in a place that sells these stones (like a retail store, I explained better in the game).

And this is where I'd love to hear your thoughts on something. The original name of the game is "NSFW: A Porn Anthology." In the context I've set up, the name of the place you're in is "Neil Sisters Flash Workshop" (yes, it's an acronym for NSFW). So, which name do you think works better—the original one or using "Neil Sisters Flash Workshop"? If there's any other option you have in mind, I'm open to suggestions!

I thought it was good. IMO, it's always better to give at least some backstory; you don't have to go into detail; that can happen later if you want. The player needs to get into the game and not have to think about why this is happening or who that guy is later on.

Great work so far RawMagic.

Update CH.2
Hello everyone. With astonish victory, gathering 100% of the votes (1 vote), the winner of our poll is (drumroll)... Madison! As I anticipated the result, since I currently only have 1 Patreon and he voted early on, I had already started working on the story, so we have some updates. The story is 100% written, characters created, and I've already posed about 50% of the story. When I finish posing, I will move on to improving the lighting and details, which is a bit more time-consuming and tedious. After that, I'll move on to the animations. My focus for this story is to add interaction. I'll start slowly, so for now, only the sex scene will be interactive, but maybe i will add a few more things. Overall, I'm liking the result. This story is larger than the previous one, roughly three times the size, so it's a bit more challenging, but I'm happy with it. Throughout the next week, I'll be posting some spoilers on Patreon, but for now, enjoy this one:

 

[Raw Magic]

UPDATE CH2
Hey guys! Another update on Chapter 2 for you. The story is 95% posed, with only a few details left and the somer renders after the lewd scene, which I usually do later. The lights are also in place. I'll go back to make some adjustments later, but the majority is done. The rest of the week was spent on animations. And man, animations are challenging as fuck.

I shared this earlier in the week on Patreon. I dream of creating games with really good animations, so I'm trying to make them more complex instead of those animations with just one loop, and man, it's tough. I'm going through what I am calling "the animation paradox". When you make a simple animation with just one loop, it's okay. You know it's not a great animation, but it works. The more complex the animation gets, it seems like the mistakes become more noticeable, more glaring, and it feels worse than if it were a single-loop animation. I'm not sure if this is really happening or if it's just my perception from staring at the same thing for so long, so I wanted to drop a spoiler here for you to give me your opinion.

But that's it; I know that to reach good animations, this is a phase I'll have to go through, so let's do it. I have two animations ready, and three or four more to come. Maybe next week, I'll have a release date for Chapter 2. What do you think?
PS: I wanted to add the video here in a loop, like a gif, but I can't upload it because it's 14MB. Does anyone know if there's another way to do this?

STATUS UPDATE CH2

Hey, folks! The update is dropping early this week, and I've got some good news. Chapter 2 is 100% in the rendering queue—well, more like 90%, but let me explain.

As I mentioned earlier, my focus for this story was to add interactivity. I did that in the sex scene, but in the end, I decided I wanted to incorporate more interactivity throughout the entire story, not just at the climax.

However, this "second route" is going to take another week to render, and then I still need to test if everything's good to go. So, my initial idea was to release this version as early access for my Patreons, and next week, drop the public version with this extra content. But since I only have 3 Patreons at the moment, I figured it's better to release it to the public this time.

Since there are some changes I want to make in Chapter 1 as well, I've decided to release Chapter 2 now and use next week to make those general adjustments. I might release them in Chapter 3 or perhaps in a Chapter 2.5.


That's it for now. On Saturday or Sunday, I'll drop by to share the game link and talk about what I thought of this chapter. No spoilers this week, though, since the game's so close to being released. See you all then!

 

[Raw Magic]

NSFW CH.2 UPDATE RELEASE
Hey, folks! Chapter 2 is ready! My focus for this chapter was to add interactivity, so I made the sex scene more dynamic, with options to change positions, etc.

I also ended up trying to improve the animations. It wasn't my initial goal, but I couldn't resist. At first, I hated how it was turning out—I even mentioned it to you all here. But after rendering and seeing it in the game, I think I liked it.

That's about it; I hope you guys enjoy it!

STATUS UPDATE CH3



Hey everyone, another Friday, another weekly update.
Firstly, I'd like to explain why I didn't do the poll for the next story at the end of the last update. Well, there are two reasons. The first one is that I only have 2 Patreons, so there's still not enough people for the poll to make sense. But the main reason is that the last update didn't go as well as I expected. I don't know why; I don't know if people didn't like it or if it was just not seen by many(with you have an opinion, please, give me a feedback). Since I still receive few feedbacks, I was a bit in the dark, but one feedback I got was that the stories are too short, and it's challenging for people to really connect with the characters. Since the two characters I had for the poll would also have shorter stories (around 250 renders), I chose to make a larger story that I was planning for later. I don't know how many renders it will be yet, but I think it'll be around 400 renders. It's not huge, but I think it'll be a bit better in that regard. Therefore, in the next two updates, I want to test this larger format with more character development, and I'll come back with the polls after that. It's good because it will give time to have more Patreons.

Now, about this week's update itself, I've already created the character (the beauty in the gif above) and conducted some tests with her. I'll probably release more spoilers next week on Patreon. I don't have much else to share at the moment; the first week of development is usually slower. I've created the characters and the scenes, and I'm finishing writing the story (it's about 50% done). Next week, I'll come with more spoilers, and hopefully, there'll be more action to show. Haha.

STATUS UPDATE CH3


Hey folks. Sorry for the delay in the update. Last week I was sick over the weekend and ended up taking about 3 days off. Well, the update is coming along nicely but still very much in the early stages. When I started writing the story, I was aiming for roughly double the size of the previous one, but it ended up being much bigger than that, so I think this update will still take a few weeks, but I think it will be worth it. The story is already 80% done, there are some less important scenes that I still need to write, but the overall scope is almost ready. I have 50 renders ready so far. Since most of them are from the beginning, there aren't any hot scenes yet, so I'll save the spoilers for future updates. Additionally, as I mentioned in the past, before releasing ch3, I'll release an update 2.5 with some improvements to ch1 and ch2. I worked on that a bit this week but I'll intensify the work on this part over the next week, so in the next update, I'll bring more details. So that's it, folks, sorry for the slower updates, but I believe it will be worth it in the end haha.

 

[Raw Magic]

STATUS UPDATE CH3
This week we have the first spoiler and as things are starting to get more interesting in the story, there should be more spoilers starting from next week. To give you an overview of how the game is progressing.

Regarding Chapter 3, I'm at about 20% of the total. Like I said, it ended up being much larger than initially anticipated. Just to give you an idea, Chapter 2 has 150 renders and 2000 words, while Chapter 3 already has 2700 words plus renders ready (I haven't counted how many renders yet), and that's around 20%. So yeah, this one is going to be much more than double what I estimated at first.

I'm also working on 2.5 simultaneously. So far, I've already redone 2 animations from Chapter 1 and added options to change sexual positions, making it less static in the beginning. Additionally, there's 1 new animation in Chapter 2. There are still a few adjustments to make in both chapters, and once that's done, there are some changes in the GUI that I want to implement before releasing 2.5.

That's about it. For now, I'm splitting my time 50% on Chapter 2.5 and 50% on Chapter 3. I believe things will pick up a bit more after releasing Chapter 2.5. And that's it, folks. Have a great week!

 

[Raw Magic]

STATUS UPDATE CH3



Hey guys. This week has been more focused on making animations. Chapter 3 is going to have more than one lewd scene, so the animations here are taking a lot more effort. I don't know exactly how many there will be, but I believe it'll be around 10 scenes. Additionally, I'm improving the animations from Chapter 1. I think they're quite behind compared to those in Chapters 2 and 3 (actually, Chapter 1 as a whole is, especially compared to Chapter 3), but that's a topic for another day haha.

I'll leave here a preview of the first animation from Chapter 3. I usually do the animations in two parts, the first one to create the animation itself and the second for polishing. This is just the first pass, so there are still a few errors, but overall I'm satisfied with the result. What do you guys think?

 

[Ennoch]

Those are some magnificent boobas!

 

[Raw Magic]

STATUS UPDATE CH3, CH2.5
Hey everyone, another week, another update.

Regarding ch3, I've finished another part. Overall, it's about 50% done or so. The next part is a bit simpler than the other two I've already completed, and the last part is the most complex of them all. That's why I'm leaving it for the end.

As for ch2.5, it's practically ready. I believe I'll release ch2.5 next week, but it's not a promise. That's because there's A LOT in the rendering queue, and as I've mentioned here before, my PC is very slow, so it might take some time for everything to finish. Therefore, I'm not exactly sure how long it will take.

Upon release, I'll talk about all the changes in update 2.5, but I think the main one is the remake of the animations from update 1. It's interesting to see the progress I've made in the short time between the first update and now. Here's an example of before and after for one of them. I know I still have a lot to improve, but in my opinion, it's already much better. Not all of them turned out significantly better; there are still some positions where I struggle more, but overall, I think it's good. Not perfect, but acceptable. Probably in the future, I'll look back at the current animations and find them terrible, but for now, I'm satisfied. What do you guys think?

 

[Ennoch]

What do you guys think?

There is a horrible seam between the penis and body texture.
