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

[Bouwen]

Yes, you will be rewarded. But both routes are very rewarding.

 

[Canto Forte]

While we struggle with the overbearing weight of the Goddess in this game getting stage fright in this latest update ...
some bizarre one star review crept up ...
”
The characters do not seem very plausible and every interaction lacks credibility.
Choices are far too few, leaving you locked in scenes without a say.
The main character design is highly unlikeable to me, but that's a subjective flaw.
In general the slight toonish influence all characters have makes it look like an uncanny hybrid of The Sims and Daz3D models.
In my opinion this game is highly overrated.
”
The hubris of calling the main character design highly unlikely in this game where the premise is his life has just turned upside down when we find him in the beginning, while he is the right kind of sheltered knowitall brat who stumbles through life carelessly until the streets beat the smarts into his knuckle brain ...

Yes, you will be rewarded. But both routes are very rewarding.

Young adults are dumb? - Yes, they are scatter brains - they always regret their choices when they get older, story old as time.

We can adress the gripes one by one and dismantle this nonsense:
”The characters do not seem very plausible and every interaction lacks credibility”
Reason: This is a game where the Godess is a model who has outgrown her modelling deer in the headlights years and has gone into publicing business - the level of disbelief of the general public is off the charts about the perfect looks and immages of nowadays supermodels, so of course the whole plot is making up stories that entertain based on looks of this or that girl, because supermodel magazines do such a hype train write up and insanely hot photoshoots with models to make most if not every heart skip a beat when reading their pages while eating up the pictures of models like everflowing candy.

” Choices are far too few, leaving you locked in scenes without a say. ”
Reason: there are quite a few character paths that have two branching stories to choose from, while running intandem some of them, therefore there is always a lot to do and see. Not sure what lack of choices there is when the early game conversation lines are dozens to pick from with most if not all of the girls we meet. This is a game, so gaming the system is the intended character arc with each girl with each of her paths.

”In general the slight toonish influence all characters have makes it look like an uncanny hybrid of The Sims and Daz3D models”
Reason: People who are into the beauty peagent business and lifestyle, where the way you look and act and your manerisms are everything, while having the shalowest of ideas, so as to not alienate any of your possible future fans or sponsors, this is a cartoonish look and feel in the real life also, with the Tinsel Town - Hollywood mind set which is totally bonkers to most other human beings, even many of the staff providing the unseen workforce behind the scenes have a hard time getting used to this stanoffish fachade - yet they enjoy showing up on the sets and contributing their time and efforts every day.

Just watched Miss Congeniality again where a cop undercover is straight up hating the beauty peagent life and all the thoughts and the antics of the supermodels who were pitting their all on their looks and their star power to help them make a living out of photo shoots.

This is the life of models and we are privy to a literal goddess on the supermodel galaxy, so much so that her stage fright this update is hitting players hard today.

Is there an achievement guide? I seem to miss over half of these, and I'm wondering how complex the requirements are

Nevermind, I found the achievement guide at the bottom of the official walkthrough

What happened to the Android version of this

 

[OhGodNotAgain]

But it's always the same story. I'm probably not persuasive enough, and you guys are lazy or scared to write to her on Patreon, where you'll be heard and always taken seriously. Because Moochie always does everything you guys wish for, mainly for those who are paying her electricity bills.

So if you find the courage to express your gratitude to her directly for making such a wonderful game, and then continue with the fact that you might not survive this update because of the missing Evelyn, if there are enough of you, she will change some priorities - even though Evelyn already has very high priority.

This site is full of hypocrites that obsess over a fictional character who will then turn around and lecture you about distinguishing fantasy and reality. They will tell devs to do their own thing, then get mad when they do. Polls should never be used for anything other than outfits and hairstyles.

 

[wildride69]

This game is text book why we can't have nice things, why not focus on the closest girls first and then expand outwards, I will never understand why devs create 20 girls and ignores the most popular ones... hubris?

Just because their the most POPULAR you you does not mean they are the most popular girls to everyone is why. A variety of girls lets more people fine a girl they like with the unfortunate side effect of making everyone wait for a girl they want to be updated.

 

[MrTrue]

That review will most definitely be removed, like most of the 1-star reviews that claim a popular game is overrated.
To post a review you actually have to adhere to a very high standard and some very strict rules, it removes the ability to rage review or review bomb.
So just report the reviews you don't feel like live up the standard for low effort and they will be promptly removed.

*It has already been removed as I edit this.

Sometimes it might not look like it, but all characters and their main stories were pretty much prepared a long time ago in Moochie's head. All characters will have their own campaigns, most of them with several story branches, and no character will be left behind. All stories will be properly finished, regardless of the choices made by players in their polls. A vote for one character doesn't mean another will be neglected; instead, it might mean that the second character will get an update later, which could also include nicer renders and a better story, as we're always trying to improve with each new update.

 

[Bouwen]

That's also the reason people can't vote for Evelyn and Rachel specifically, otherwise we'd only play with those two characters and story of this game would be dificult to properly finish.

And this works out really well with Photo Hunt since majority of people playing it like all the girls.
I don't feel like it was until lately when the game really exploded in popularity on F95 that we got the more focused group that only play for girls like Evelyn, Rachel, Grace, etc.

That's also the reason people can't vote for Evelyn and Rachel specifically, otherwise we'd only play with those two characters and story of this game would be dificult to properly finish.

It was always funny when Evelyn showed up in a poll cause she would pretty much double the combined votes of all the other girls except for Rachel.

 

[Bouwen]

Yeah, well, Evelyn wasn't in the poll 3 years longer than any other character, except Lina (which is in the poll quite a time, but just didnt got votes yet..), which has been 3 years and something, and of course Jennifer... to be honest, I don't remember if Jennifer ever had her own update. Anyway, these two girls will get an update, then we'll have Rachel's update, and finally, we'll get a series of Evelyn updates. After that, I suppose we'll have several updates that will probably include all the main characters in the great finale. There might be some kind of poll about it, but I'm not sure, its all on Moochie to decide. I think, it will take more than a year to get to this phase.

 

[the66]

here is my unofficial Android port of Photo Hunt v0.18.1.

Main App:

• You must be registered to see the links

Assets (mandatory):

• You must be registered to see the links

Spoiler: touch screen usage

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

download both files, install and run the app, the rest happens automatically.
however, you still can copy the assets pack manually to the folder /RenPy/org.photo.hunt.the66/game on Android 11 and newer or to the folder /Android/data/org.photo.hunt.the66/files/game.

from now on my Android ports of Ren'Py games have a 2nd, persistent save location like Windows. if you uninstall the app, the save files and persistent data remain intact.
therefore it needs the permission to access the public external storage (or a new one on Android 11+), because it has to read and write outside its own external storage directories.
you have to grant the permission or the app is shut down.

have fun and please report problems (you can reach me

You must be registered to see the links

).
updated: 24.02.25 (new app to fix an assets problem)

Jennifer did have an update dedicated to her and it was back in 0.8.1, but it was almost exclusively story stuff and no sexual content, which was added as content during other girls updates instead.

Anyone have a save I could snag? I dont even care if its a few updates old. I just dont wanna start fresh

1. don't trust saves from random persons, those can have malware.
2. read 1.
