VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch.13.2 Full] [Eva Kiss]

[Deleted member 5130917]

Remastered version took 3-4 months,

Remastered version took 5 and a half month to develop.

May 22nd - chapter 8 alpha
Oct 24th- chapter 9 alpha
April 8th - remastered alpha

When author started the project she said updates will come every other month (as opposed to GGGB that released almost every month afair). Obviously, life verifies your plans, but if it takes you almost THREE TIMES LONGER to develop a single update than what you thought initially - there is something wrong/stuff happening behind the scenes. Something like that should not happen to someone who has already finished one game and has the experience.

If she's gonna keep her current pace we'll get only one "real" update this whole year. That's absolutely horrible and I don't know how anyone can defend that.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I haven't played the Games as yet as I prefer the game to be completed. Would this not be close to the final update? I really enjoyed GGGB, and I'm looking forward to this title. I can wait the time required to have the game in a truly finished state. Take the time needed, last thing anyone wants is for this to be pushed out and ruined because it has been rushed to appease us the pirate community.

The reason why GGGB had faster updades is very simple only one cheracter and the routs were not that devoloped compared too our red string which feels way more realistic you can go into realationships which feel more devoloped and better than GGGB.The game ended very fast I mean if eva would do the same I guess she could be already or almost fineshed the thing that you keep in mind is that every route would be very undevoloped ,relationships would not feel real and the game ending would prob be very unsatisfying so I am sorry to say again I prefer 1 long game over 8 years that has devoloped relationships,diff kinks,stats roleplay potential realistic game world than 3 short games that end too fast and are very undevoloped which bunch of sex scenes.relationships feel so much better and more impactful thats good for everyone dosent matter which kink you have if you are vanilla you love the romantic if you are kinky and love cheating it feels way better if the girl cheat because ian build a connection so ntr/corruption fans will love it too.

no need to build illusions, the game is essentially dead, there has been no plot development for 9 months ... it is unlikely that the author is still interested in something to continue ...

 

[jamwor88]

the development is still a lot too slow, we didn‘t get new content since november when chapter 9 came out, since then, the story didn‘t continue, we only got the remastered version. That‘s the reason why people complain. I really hope that the game continues because it‘s the best one for me. I also think that people would be less upset if Eva would stay in touch with the community and at least say why the development is going this slow, of course she needs holiday but at least inform your patreons about that because they are the ones paying for the game to continue.

I wonder if these guys have the respectable burden of preserving an ancient forum tradition or if most AVN fans are just fucking crybabies.

 

[Broeler]

no.. but its a very VERY long time since the last update.. since nowadays most devs remake A LOT of the game when they are very far into development process already.. I find it annooying.. but oh well..

There is no release date for the next update..im guessing.. A LOT of time... And i rly doubt that the amount of content will be worth the wait... hope im wrong... but i dont think so...


i usually come to this thread to learn if there is anything new.. but whatever news she releases, gets ofuscated by the amount of philospphy this guys are throying in here debating the fucking game lmao. So absically you wont get much info here aswell xD

Yeah it's a trend I also noticed. Many devs who worked on games for 1-2 years then go on to rework the whole structure and "waste" a year or so. Some work the old version in tandem but idk. I get why many do it, getting more experience and sometimes the framework makes working on , now massive games, hard.

Oh, the latter for sure. And mixed in is a healthy dose of good old fashioned jealousy. It bothers them that someone can be successful from making a game, and so they try to tear it down.

But yeah, it's mostly the crying baby effect. Both the baby and the posters are saying the same thing. "Baby want! Baby want NOW!!!"

Yeah, you got it right: the game is dead. Since the game is dead you don't have to come posting this garbage anymore, go play non dead games and be happy.

Do you even understand how the development of non-linear games with a choice is going on? With each update, the options for passing increase, the amount of content and adult scenes, dialogues and drawing art grows. And this is a 2D game. Every art is hand drawn, no graphics cards to do all the work. Development time is increasing.
Episode 1 - 0 scenes
Episode 2 - 2 scenes
Episode 4 - 5 scenes
Planned episode 10 - 12 scenes.
Stop panicking and whining.
Early September - mid October most possible release window

 

[Rosequake]

So has there not been a progress update in 11 days? And no new content in 2022? I really like EvaKiss and have been following her since early development of GGGB but I've seen too many games slowly creep into abandonment to not start to recognise the signs here. Shame.

 

[Roderick2]

I confess I come here from time to time to check if there is any update and, when I see there is not, I get worried about the develper. I hope he/she is ok and able to keep this great work.

Cheers!

Are you finished throwing the bait yet? cuz i dont see anyone got baited with your statement
Maybe try it again couples of weeks from now, cuz its kinda funny to see all this crybabies once in a while

 

[FugginDamaged]

Jesus Christ the game is not abandoned! can y'all go find something to do? you have too much time in your hands, if you're complaining about a free game that you never spend a single dime on it

If you panic over little things like that, I wonder how you'd wait for an inra with a major production like Being a DIK, where the entire second season was practically two years in development.

how many scenes was episode 9?

My man spitting facts. It took the dev 3 months to do same work she previously did in 2. Well, that's allegedly for now since Eva said Ian's part of the story for Chapter 10 is as long as the entire Chapter 5, but we'll see if that is true. Either way, a sign of her slowing down is here.

how many scenes was episode 9?

Depends on how you view scenes; in the original chapter 9 we got:
IanxAlison, IanxCherry, IanxCindy, IanxLena, IanxHolly, AlisonxJeremy(phone), EmmaxJeremy(phone), LenaxAxel, LenaxMike, LenaxRobert, LenaxSeymour so that's 11 scenes and you can add 2 more if we add the LenaxAxel and CindyxAxel photo shoot.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

how many scenes was episode 9?

9 sex scenes + 2 photoshoots. If we count everything together - 11. Ivy/Holly kiss doesn't count as a scene, it's just two
pictures.

Yes, apparently we will get the biggest episode of all. If we count from the release of the final version of the Remaster, and this was in late April, then 2.5 months have passed to work on the Ian path. If we are halfway there, then we need another 2 and a half months to work on the game and one to two weeks for beta testing. That is, it takes a little more time to develop than Episode 9.
So I don't see any slowdown. The problem is the growth in the amount of content, as in all similar games. And unlike GGGB, this game is better, more beautiful graphically, more difficult to script and much larger. I'm not surprised that the development is long. GGGB and ORS are like an indie game and a AAA project in comparison. EvaKiss alone is developing a top project.
Her only problem is that she listens too much to whining and disgruntled snowflakes from Patreon and Discord.
They don't like Ian's choice of clothes - Eva remodels.
They don't like Stan's representation - Eva rewrites him and changes his appearance.
They don't like some choices - Eva changes them.
This is called being led by disgruntled and screaming attention whores.

Imagine complaining about using the game's forums for talking about the actual game as opposed to whining like a baby that you don't get your updates for free at the pace you would like ...
