Ren'Py Abandoned Power Vacuum [Ch. 12 Official] [What? Why? Games]

[Only1P]

December was expected to be when the update released, and there's usually no bonus content during release months, so there was no poll to vote on a wallpaper to be created.

Those sigs are beautiful man

Signature nice! Looks like I'm not the only one who likes Brenna! I miss the days when Sterling and Brenna made sex videos for the site

The timeline has shifted to the first week of January due to the holidays taking away from development.

CH 11 contains the whole game. Make sure you install the mandatory patch too.

Thanks, mate!

is this game became a visual novel? I downloaded the game and it's like kinetic novel with no choices or point and click stuff?

Did you download the Mandatory Patch too?

Nope. Just downloaded now and it solved the problem.

there aren't any real choices.
If you have NTR on you'll get a choice that may lead to NTR, but even if you make that choice the game brings you back to the choice so you can make the "correct" non NTR choice.
for all intents and purposes this is a kinetic novel

The User didn't download the Mandatory patch so he had a "movie" without any choices.

[Bakemono695]

Checking this thread 5 times everyday because I'm now excited for the new release and more Ophelia and Brenna

Anyone else on the edge? I feel like a million zippers would be heard unzipping across the world once this release comes

So... when?

Check my sig for everything you need to know PV.

Not a fan of the robot, the developer should have made a better way to communicate information instead of this 4th wall breaking sci-fi thing that has no real reason to even exist. Further to that point, why didnt the dev just make this a purely "coming home incest romp", did he ever explain why Hunter is even a character to begin with? The entire plot plays out the same with or without him.

Camwhoring big sister, sexually inexperienced little sister, sexually starved mom who does anything for her baby boy...I mean the game is pretty much The Tyrant love route.

Oh, come on. Did you even read the story or did you just skip the dialogue? This whole game is satire. It's a parody on your run-of-the-mill incest games. And because of that, Hunter is very necessary. He's the reason for everything. Take him out and you have the most boring game ever (and no, I'm not talking about the NTR scenes).

True, the robot doesn't have an in-universe reason to exist (that we know of), but its existence reminds us this game is not meant to be taken too seriously. Power Vacuum is largely a parody of the "house game" genre, poking fun at the common tropes, so similar character archetypes or situations are deliberately ironic.

I strongly disagree about Hunter, he's the catalyst for the whole story. As the villain, he's proactive when Sterling is mostly reactive. Hunter creates the conditions for Sterling to get the girls, through the use of drugs and hormones that raise everyone's libidos while lowering their inhibitions. Hunter's also responsible for Sterling's physical transformation, through the use of Human Growth Hormone, although Catherine's training was necessary as well.

Hunter also works as a replacement for the protagonist doing the more fucked up shit too, since it shifts the blame on a secondary character rather than the MC, which I will bet my ASS will be explored and lampooned in chapter 12 when Hunter will try to claim the MC is the one using the drugs and the cameras like a common house protagonist.

The developer likes making jokes but I wouldnt go so far as to call the entire game satire because we are 11 chapters deep into this game. Its still a game with a story that can be analyzed and with or without Hunter its the exact same game. Only difference with Hunter is you get a few more quick scenes here and there.

Plenty of games poke fun at genre's, tropes, etc but if your defining the entire game around that then what was the point when you are pretty much joining the ones youre calling out? Hunter doesnt seem as integral as you make him out to be, alot of his actions could be the actions of a third party; Eva, Amber, Aliza...it feels like a cheap narrative device; "Oh heres a guy who has cheat codes to bang all the girls so just wait until he activates them then swoop in". I feel like you coulda told a better story without him.
