Ren'Py On The Mountain Top [Ch.1] [Professor Amethyst Games]
- Thread starter baconsmoke
- Start date
The premise seemed great, a VN without a retarded 18-year old broccoli head as the lead. Those games are few and far between, and tend to be a lot better than the alternatives. As I look at the info, what do I see? Holy McFuckballs, it's another Professor Amethyst game. Sign me up, this is going to be another 5-star rocket ride.
I'm happy you decided to make another game, Amethyst!

Everything is pretty interesting here and I look forward to seeing how it plays out. The only thing is that when you've messed with Suno for quite a while, the AI songs breaking up the game itself tend to make the player feel a little silly rather than the intended effect. It might not be a common thing though

Then play something else, us old fuckers are tired of having to be some shota midget or 18 y/o dumb ass... It's nice to have a game we can relate to! And let me tell you, this grandpa still likes the young ladies!
First thing I notice is that the three volume bars start at 100% (which most devs overlook but its still annoying), but worse is that the menu music is keyed to the Sound Volume bar not the Music Volume bar.
...and if the dev is sensitive enough about playing with music or not that there is a guilt trip about it at the start of the game, then maybe put them on the right channels and not start the game by blasting the volume at max and making us turn it off immediately.
(Sorry, I'm grumpy in the morning and react poorly to cheap attempts at emotional manipulation.)
Err, and in that same light, making it so that choosing to not take a step with someone causes you to lose relationship points is more manipulation. It would be almost ok if you were refusing someone's advances (but still manipulative), but it is completely inappropriate to lose points if you just choose inaction over taking initiative. And I find that odd because there were previously choices involving Angie's mental health that were either negative vs. zero, or positive vs. zero. So why is the kiss choice with Becky weighted in both directions? Why would she like me less if I remained professional after Angie "accidentally" bumps me into her?
I think the MC looks older than the stated age of 58, the white hair is the problem. Not saying that some people don't get it early (many women of Irish descent start turning silver in their 30s) but on average most people aren't totally grey until their 70s. Easy solution though, send him to the local barber to get some coloring done, leave some grey highlights so he still looks "distinguished".

So, what type of game is this? I don't see the VN tag, but I also don't see the Point & Click, or Sandbox tags. Is it kinetic with just choices for flavor, or what? Tried looking at the dev's previous game, and got no help there, as it seems to have the same lack of tags.
There are choices that change the stats of MC and ward, but the effects of these changes are not yet evident. It seems you can either support or break your grand daughter, and given the setup I would surmise that the woman/women you end up with in the end are determined by your stats in trad / love / alt / control. Not sure if you count that as kinetic, but at least to me it looks as if the choices will have an impact on the main story down the line.

It's original to have such an old-looking mc, and such a young looking fmc that you can't romance. Honestly I like her model so I wish it would have been possible, even if it meant aging her a bit. But well, I know the dev makes good games and the rural/mountainous setting interests me so I'll just suck it up and try the game nonetheless. There must be a reason for that concept.

Planned tags: NTRS and lesbians although it is avoidable, so not interested anymore. Because if that possibility exists in any situation, then the game belongs on the ignore list. Besides that, harem is out of the question. So everything is wrong in this game.
