VN Ren'Py Operation Rio: Blood Trails [v0.1] [Black Ninja]

[Orochi157]

Overview:
Thanks to a new drug that began circulating in Brazil, the criminal faction known as the Red Empire gained enough profit to take control of the entire country, extending its influence over politics, the media, the police, and many other sectors. As a result, nearly 90% of all other criminal factions were either eliminated or forced to merge with the Red Empire.
However, years later, something was about to plunge Rio de Janeiro into chaos.
The leader who brought the Red Empire to the top — known only as The King — was assassinated. His death triggered the return of old factions and the rise of new ones, all fighting to inherit the power, wealth, and influence he left behind. Rio de Janeiro becomes a battlefield, where alliances are fragile and betrayal is inevitable.

THX for sharing...

 

[Orochi157]

Just one additional note. The game doesn't have many choices right now, but future updates will include choices that will significantly impact the main character's life.

 

[liuyong(chinese)]

I don't like AI animation It looks awkward wish you good luck

Jurandir is a legend.

So this will end up being a choice-based Novel then??
What about future tags?? is the FMC straight or bi-sexual??
How many different paths will there be, will there be a Lesbian path and a straight path or a mix of everything??

 

[bababooi]

nooooooo cheating tag gone?

Hey mate, I was rly intrigued by the game as the summary rly makes it interesting. So, I decided to check the prequel and it rly dropped the bar on my expectations. I didn't play none of the games yet and I don't like to judge b4 doing so. So I'd like you to give me your take on this as the dev of this game.
When I checked your other game it said to be a "choice based visual novel". Is that true? BC from what I gathered and I quote
"This game is for those who like how freaks and old men from the lower league try to pick the beautiful flower of the main character. " It seems to only be aimed at a certain type of ppl. Not really what you'd usually expect of a choice BASED visual novel. Especially with a female protag where 90% of those are corruption games where the sole purpose is to make the FMC a sl1t by the end of it. I have nothing against corruption games, however most of them are slops that follow the same direction.

Really rare are those that actually understand the essence of a choice based corruption game.
Most of them don't understand that it should be the player's choice to corrupt the MC to the level they prefer. Instead of making choices like
"go left" "go right" outcome : "get raped no matter where you went"
For exemple some would like to corrupt her until she becomes a sl1t, others would like to keep her innocent and loyal. Me I'd like for the MC to be corrupt enough to not be shy for no reason and engage things not wait others to grope her or smt. I'd like my MC to be corrupt enough to take the lead and not shy away from it.

As you can prbbly guess from my signature my preference in game like these are lesbian paths. SO will there be one in this one? I don't really care if we don't begin as one and even have to see a scene or 2 with guys. As long as we get more control over the MC as the story continues. And that at some point we can avoid straight paths.

SO yeah, is the prequel worth playing according to my standard? Is the prequel truly only for "those who like how freaks and old men from the lower league try to pick the beautiful flower of the main character." or is it bc that guy only played that path?
Will the sequel follow the same pattern as the prequel? WIll there be lesbian LIs?

Its weird to me that people go through all the work of making a scene actually in 3d, with poseable models, then use generate "AI" to "animate" (mutilate) it using only a couple of fixed flat renders. You already put the work in, make use of that work.

I'm not even knocking people who use the slop machine when the alternative is not having images, or using randomly found photos from the web in the way most old HTML games used to. But it doesn't add value as a post production layer, it REDUCES quality for the sake of saving labor, already doing the labor then turning it into uncanny soup is the worst of both worlds.

Games are a unique media in that you will get great reviews and a dedicated (if sometimes niche) following showing us ANYTHING that you can do better than average, and literally can just avoid doing the things your not wanting to become good at. Can you voice act? Do you draw? 3d model? Hows your story writing? Regressing towards the mean by trying to be the things your NOT good at ONLY wastes our time and hurts your reputation. Consider taking the time you WASTE (both player and as dev) on animations that lower overall quality and fixing things like the lighting in the base scenes, or some of the weird poses. That final 10% time investment would turn average into great, instead of diluting it with a ton more average.

No AI CG tag despite clearly having it, Yuck.

The 1st game game had some mild lesbian scenes, but I'll let the dev answer your question. This prologue is only about 20 minutes long so I would suggest trying it out.

I appreciate the thoughtful way you framed your critique, and I want to respond in the same spirit.


A big part of the reason I rely on AI-assisted animation right now isn’t preference, but limitation. I simply don’t have a powerful enough PC to comfortably handle proper lighting passes, high-quality renders, or real 3D animations without my workflow becoming extremely slow or outright unworkable. I’m very aware of the quality gap you’re pointing out — it’s not something I’m blind to.


Ideally, I’d much rather be doing full, clean 3D animations and spending more time refining lighting, posing, and scene composition. Unfortunately, at this stage, I have to work with the hardware I have, not the hardware I wish I had. The AI layer is less about cutting corners and more about finding a way to move forward despite those constraints.


That said, your point about focusing on strengths instead of diluting the end result is valid, and it’s something I actively think about when deciding where to invest my limited time and resources. As my setup improves, so will the technical side of the project.


Thanks again for the respectful and detailed feedback — even when opinions differ, this kind of discussion is genuinely useful.

There will be lesbian scenes in the game in the future; I even have a script prepared for it.

It looks promising, I liked what I’ve seen. One thing I’d like to see implemented is an option to skip the scenes with her husband, maybe even having that contribute to the corruption system somehow? Anyway, good luck with the new project.
