VN Ren'Py Office Perks [v0.1.4] [Amomynous Games]

[stenctrum]

Office Perks is not a Harem game. While you can date all LIs at the same time, choices will eventually need to be made as the story progresses.

Then what's even the point of dating every LIs, if you will be forced to choose one? There is nothing worse than this. I don't think most people play porn games for rejections, broken hearts and crying. That's always funny for me in those "you can have only one girls" type of games, saying that the game have "choices" but you can't choose all of them. So we can't choose what we want, we're only able to choose what dev wants for us. So that's only an illusion of choice. Ideally, all games should offer harem and solo endings. Then the players would be able to choose what they want.

It's a good point about telling Jenny and Eva that they're the only one's he considered. I can easily update that with an interest check before he professes this because you are right, it comes across as just telling them what they want to hear and disingenuous. As far as leading them on, Act 2 will have to untangle what MC has gotten into, and you can bet that some of these girls will get tired of sharing.

"...some of these girls will get tired of sharing." Does that also mean that some of them (the others) wont get tired of sharing? lol. Care to tell me which girls those are?

I have a problem with this update. Although I've been able to play it through trial and error. It keeps giving me a blank screen with a loading blue wheel and I have to keep clicking around and use the Windows button to get to the main screen with the menu. This happens with the compressed (f95) and uncompressed version (from itch.io).

I'm a harem guy so I understand and share your frustration, but the truth is it's always the illusion of a choice, even in a harem game. Whatever choices you have are the ones the dev presents to you.

When is this happening? Randomly, or at a certain spot? I haven't heard any other reports about this, but I'll look into it.

It happens every time I click on the exe to start the game.

recommend new players to download the mod , can improve the game experience . especially for non-native English speakers like me .

Is there aNy animation ?

So which of the available LI's does everyone here like the most ?

Eva is number 1 for me. Jenny is number 2.

 

[Yasubey]

I didn't expect the game to be so good, Eva is the best girl in the game)

 

[Estius]

I like Jenny. Tried doing a monogamous route with her and it's kind of weird. The way it's written it's almost like she expects you to be with the other women.

Everyone has their own preferences, I don't like harems, I like different endings for each LI, I like to try different monogamous single endings

You have the choice to date just one, or a few, or all. We don't know that when MC starts handing out roses that there's gonna be ugly crying and broken hearts. I mean they've known each other for a few weeks. I've been broken up with a couple times, didn't cry once. When I broke up with my ex-fiance for my now wife, there were some slaps and curses but no tears from her either. Anyhow, it's been warned that there's not a harem planned, so if you don't like it, you're not obligated to play. I doubt any of us are going to cry about that either.

And no, you can't choose whatever you want. Not being able to choose absolutely anything you want is not illusion of choice. Choices are limited by necessity, because the developer has to write it for you to be able to choose it. If we all could choose whatever we want, all developers would have to include a path where the MC get superpowers, his dick grows from only 11" to a full 24, every woman in the world orgasms at there mere mention of his name, and he's named galactic emperor. Because that's what at least someone wants out of every game. There's a few games that try to cater to that market segment, and those games all suck.

I truly enjoy the story and the models are gorgeous. Only thing that is getting to me is the animation or lack there of. No reason not to have far better animation .

 

[AnonW123]

One thing I seem to recall (The Dev or someone can correct me if I'm remembering wrong) is that some time ago the Dev said that about 3 characters would be open to a group sex/semi-harem situation but the others wouldn't. I don't know if that's the case or if it has changed.

I truly enjoy the story and the models are gorgeous. Only thing that is getting to me is the animation or lack there of. No reason not to have far better animation .

Couple of reasons:
1. I'm not very good at it yet, so I chose "no animation" over "shitty animation". I'm practicing and improving, but still not up to the standards I want to hit.
2. They take a long ass time to render and it slows down progress by a lot, especially because of #1 above and having to redo things over and over because I'm not happy with the results.

That said, I get it. Animations are very important for some, not important at all for others. I'm glad you enjoyed the story and the models, though. I will continue working on my animation skills. Thanks for playing.

 

[Elduriel]

I'll take no animations over shitty ones

Dang, old saves dont work

What I did:

1. Opened folder with old 0.5 version. Loaded save, played a bit and saved.
2. Opened folder with new 0.7 version. Played a bit, saved.
3. Opened

%APPDATA% folder (just type it into your windows search), then Renpy folder
4. Sorted folders by change date.
5. Found two folders that were changed recently (like 5 minutes ago and 2 minutes ago).
6. Backed up files from newest folder (just in case), created 2 min ago.
7. Opened second newest folder that was changed 5 minutes ago, copied all files from it into the newest folder that was created 2 minutes ago.
8. Launched 0.7 and loaded one of old 0.5 saves.

8. Launched 0.7 and loaded one of old 0.5 saves.

And if you don't have the older version installed, like me:
Old saves are in folder that starts with WVH
New saves use folder that starts with OfficePerks

one thing i am hoping you can change in a future update , purely because my old eyes need larger dialogue to read without squinting. just makes it easier. most games you can alter the size of the dialogue with the "a" button. hoping you can enable this for us in a future version..please..pretty please with coffee on top?
