VN Ren'Py Completed Once in a Lifetime [v1.0] [Caribdis]

[Phase_01]

are the mom and aunt fuckable? or incest is just to the sisters? and does fa/it jack take any girls from us?

Aunt? I'm assuming you mean the brunette, in which case that's the teacher.
Mom and sisters are, though its incestn't, as in step-relation.

And no to the last question, if you're saying what I'm assuming.

are more scens like that one or its that just one time thingy?

One time thing, doesn't happen if you don't choose it.

Overall, my experience with the game was mixed. The extensive amount of text led me to skip through some parts, making it challenging to fully grasp the storyline. The plot involved evil entities, a Japanese town, gods, and an evil book, which felt overwhelming at times.

This game is not for those seeking mindless explicit content, as the focus is primarily on lengthy dialogues, accounting for about 80% of the gameplay. Personally, I didn't find the story engaging, and I ended up using the skip button through almost the entire game. However, I recognize that my expectations might have influenced my perception.

In hindsight, I believe I approached the game with the wrong mindset, expecting a simpler experience. I might consider giving it another chance in the future, taking the time to fully comprehend the story and its intricacies. A deeper understanding of the plot could potentially enhance the overall experience.

This VN, Cari's other VN, and many of the best and most popular VNs do the "N" justice. People expecting an animated porn loop won't be satisfied.

And I think the fans and Dev of this VN are just fine with that.

ok thanks I thought the game had more bad scenarios besides that one

There's some bad endings, but they're mostly story/plot based, and not so much romance
All avoidable with the right choices of course.

Mom, sisters and cousin. Aunt Cora unfortunely isn't, she doesn't even appear, only references. While Caribdis had initial goals to include her, at the same time he had difficulties to include her in the plot with a decent storyline and without plotholes.

Nope, the Aunt is Cora, which Carla goes at the begining of the story to small "vacations", where she grabs the taxi and all that. She doesn't have screen time.

Rebecca may not be the aunt in game, but is in my heart though. I thought before of modding the storyline a bit to include that, but didn't have much time, as well I didn't want big plot holes. If I grab time I may try to do something, as long it brings attention to the game and doesn't change the storyline. And for rereading the game would be needed. But first, time is needed, along with less amount of laziness.

If you use the mod, you can view all endings at the end despite not doing them.

Don't need to use the mod for the whole game if you don't want of course.

You telling me we had potential for another MILF in this game??
That hurts my heart.

If people (like me) don't play with the patch (because the story is good without it too) there's no Aunt/Cousin so it's easy to misunderstand.
This is why in situations like this I usually ask if the person plays with or without the patch. It gets rid of any confusion (most of the time).

Indeed there was. No idea if it was Iris's mom, if it was, I wouldn't mind another redhead Mr Caribdis.

I just went along to what OP said. But yes, I use the incest patch. Although I believe Cora continues to be the aunt of Judie and Lauren, even without the patch.

 

[Phase_01]

I wasn't even aware there was a patch for this game

Yep, without the patch it's easier to see why her not appearing isn't that big of a deal since she's just "a random aunt" that moves the story further.
Meanwhile I assume she's Iris's mom with the patch and we only see her dad. Thus it's a lot weirder to only see her mentioned and never actually see her.

Caribdis Do you plan to make a sequel for this game after Eternum ends? I really can't got enough of this game. I really think it ended rather quickly. Or maybe I feel like that because I love the game I dunno

Put me on board for the game ending too soon. I too love both of them so much that I feel so much more could have been done in Once, but I'm fine if that was all we'll see.

I honestly think that only the harem path has a satisfying ending since you can see a little bit of what happens after the epilogue... the other girl's endings that I tried to go for exclusively end too quickly with no real closure and a time skip. If Caribdis would fix this with more renders of multiple situations (like vacation, wedding, pregnancy, childbirth) it would feel more complete instead of the single render at the end with the bus for every girl. I guess it is just too time-consuming to do it for each individual girl, but the ending experience is what remains the most after finishing something so I think it's important to give them as much importance as the beginning.

How is MC personality?

 

[SoberSphagghett]

Can we make their areolas larger? Tiny nipples are shit to suck on, or to look at ;-;

 

[1tomadeira]

How is MC personality?

Quite obvilious at start, but in a funny way. He has a good, yet lustful heart. His growth as a character is pretty cool, although his dumb takes are enforced when he is near the female characters (one is extremely intelligent, one is extremely athletic, etc). His "bad moments" don't give a lame or cringe look, they simply give a comedy goal in game. And comedy is one of the true major points in game.

Personally I think he has a very good balance, both in initial level and growth. He doesn't give neither the loser feel at start, neither the overpowered one, although it is noticeable that he needs to change before reaching the end of the game. I think that is the most overlooked aspect in the game, but I guess that's because the female cast is simply outstanding. Caribdis has a gift to make every girl heroine extremely likeable, don't know how he makes it.

Keep in mind that this was the first game the dev make, so you'll see a big increase of quality the more you play, both in scenarios and writing, since the quality increased in every release.

The bath scene BGM caught me off guard. Loved that song while growing up
