Ren'Py Photo Hunt [v0.18.1 Extra] [Moochie]

[Beduin123]

Had a look at the subscribestar and Patreon numbers today.

This man is doing NUMBERS.

Well, as of now, it's the best sandbox game I ever played. I don't normally like sandbox but this is an exception. The graphics are great, the girls are very hot and the story is exciting.
Still it gets very messy sometimes when you fuck the brain out of an LI and in the next location the best she allows you "so far" is to hold hands.

yeah continuity can be weird some times

That's why a decision to choose sandbox is always highly questionable even in the best cases like this one. I understand that replayability is better in this case but the price we pay is the consistency of the story.

The advantage of this game is there are no mini-games, you don't have to check every room and every corner like in many sandbox games



Playing a game with so many girls, paths and events in a visual novel style would be more difficult in my opinion.
The player can decide which LIs to seduce first and the events of which girls player wants to see first, which would be limited by the plot in a visual novel. Getting to the lewd two girls events (an example is Lina+Rachel) would also be limited by the VN, as player would have to get to a similar place in both girls' paths, which would take a long time due to intertwining events of other girls. Events of LIs and side girls would have to be intertwined, watching several different events to see the girl player want at this moment would be annoying

In addition, each path contains separate events and separate plot threads related to the paths we choose for other characters, also by choosing different paths we learn different things. In example, by sending a girl to RM Sakura becomes more open and says new information, which is useful in the investigation. This would make VN even worse thing to create and connect threads to, i won't even mention the timeline.
I dare say that it is a sandbox and a simulator at the same time.

Thanks to the sandbox, MC can work out at the gym and shower with Lina every day, sleep with Evelyn every Friday night, visit Monica in her office, ect

I understand your point, but in fact progression of relationships with some LIs depends on the progress with other LIs. Locations or events get locked until you progress in other event sequences.

Still I appreciate all the complexity of the game and work done for it, though I personally prefer kinetic novels (with some choices related to certain LIs and kinks) where you can unfold the whole story in one go. For me, a good consistent story is a priority.

soon they will start kicking mc besides rina.

 

[KageSocks]

This may be a pretty dumb question but is there a way to change a characters name besides the MC, one of the female characters is named after someone I know and its throwing me off

Edit -Nvm I figured it out

I remember there being a really good walkthrough mod for this game. Or at least I think its a mod. Is that discontinued, or is that one of the things in the op?

I remember it allowing you to switch between each LI, tracking current goal what you should do etc. It was quite comprehensive.

Yeah, that's a Multi mod in the original post.
It's very useful indeed.

 

[Beduin123]

It's very useful indeed.

From my prospective, it's a must. This game already has a lot of LIs and content. Being a sandbox, without WT it can be quite messy.

well ingame wt tells enuf what to do and when and where (unless it says that needs to meet alice at rm when she ain't there (maybe game thinks so due cheating)). no separate paths yet.

Hello, discovering this fun game and now there is multiple routes and choices for differents LI

Spoiler

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

I have some questions about Code before risking using them :

1) Should I wait finishing current update before using codes ?
2) Do codes enable gallery of alternate routes or unlock new content/girls ?
3) What the difference between cheat code and Patreon code ?
4) In first page with many code, does the last code from last update activate all previous codes or should I type them all ?
5) Is cheat code denaturing/ruining first game experience (I think cheat code grants a bunch of stats/money) ?

Thanks in advance for your lights on this subject.

Ps : I did my homework on the last few pages and research function but still remain in the dark.

1. Use it right away is my suggestion.
2. Yes they enable all the content of all routes including the variations of a scene.
3. One code is just for stats+money and the other code is to unlock the gallery
4. Only the latest code will work
5. It only helps you in not missing some early stat checks that are otherwise incredibly hard to have before you meet said person and get the interaction and to not accidentally fail school if you miss to attend enough classes at the start. (Just variation of a scene or dialogue for the stat checks.)
Money and stats are not that hard to get in this game anyway and the cheat code does little to nothing after you get past the intro for most characters.
A tip is to grind out a good chunk of money early on and buy all the items from the pawn shop in the mall.

grind or cheat and save time for main course.

When the Update

Maybe read the devlog that is posted...

limited vocabulary, can't post other than update and when update.

Was playing it. Another big brother something or harem game. Had routes and corruption and management. Even crime. Plenty to do. Instead of doing it. It started putting script in. Very disappointed by how that went. It is incessant unnecessary and adds nothing. Pages of pages of script on an encounter increasingly last update. None of it meant nothing. I dunno who reads it? It isn't helping make a decision. The story was the pictures they aren't changing with dumb script holding it up. It isn't gaming nobody talks that much or reads that when selecting any options that are explanatory.

I took the picture. Quest. It bombed and bombed pages of text at it. What? My reward was reading that? Deleted.

I enjoyed pranking the sister. I enjoyed the geisha club. I enjoyed making the teacher a geisha. I enjoyed blackmailing the colleague. All of sudden what went wrong. I took a photo last update. It had more dialogue than what I've just wrote.

In 2010, the internet would have asked : Is english your third language ?
Five years ago, we were more facetious and inquiring : Are you having a stroke ?
Nowaday the question is : Are you a Chatbot ?

Don't underestimate the chatbots. They have much more coherent line of thought nowadays
