VN Ren'Py Race of Life [Act 1 v1.04.5] [Underground Studio]

[guidedbyvoices]

I know that. In fact Lita Ford was in a sentence and "make Jasmine in someway similar to those rockstars (who are very often heavily tattoed)" was in a different one.

I mean, those rockstars are only heavily tattooed since the 2010s, before that it wasn't that way.

 

[Idontplay]

I know that, but the games doesn't take place before the 2010, it takes place nowadays, so Jasmine must act like what she actually is: a 20 years old girl who lives in 2025.

I mean, those rockstars are only heavily tattooed since the 2010s, before that it wasn't that way.

Sure, female rockstars weren't as heavily tattooed as male rockstars. Otherwise, Ozzy, Hetfield, Stray Cats, Tommy Lee and so so many others would like to say hello. There's no Mandela Effect on rockstars having tattoos whatsoever, they started having them since the 60's at least, not even a decade from the earliest rock artists started to become popular.

And this might sound shocking, even unpopular, but females that start performing in a profession dominated by men end up emulating them, thus you get female rockstars with tattoos. Did it happen later ? Sure, but that's mostly because only after the 2000s, women actually felt empowered to do this kind of thing. Josey Joplin had 2 very small tattoos in the 70s and was getting death threats over them, probably from people who didn't find them attractive, wink wink.

We’ve never done a render like this before, but this year we’re making an exception - a quick, spontaneous Thanksgiving surprise! The girls got together, put on their aprons, and baked a massive turkey just for the occasion.

Wishing you a warm, cozy day filled with good food, love, and the people you enjoy most. Thanks for being here with us! ❤

Kind of feel like I should have cropped that image a bit. No idea why the crazy one gets in with the main girls!

Holy shizzle... they all look great, and I don't really have a favorite among the girls, but Maggie sure looks especially fantastic in this render

Thanks for sharing Mr. Murray!

There is only Allie...
No clue who those other ho's are...
Well, Allie and Jasmine would be alright, too, I guess...
Who am I kidding, I so want to see a Allie & Jasmine threesome, or just watching Allie & Jasmine...
Ok, gotta stop getting my hopes up so I don't get disappointed...

I do not like threesomes but Jasmine and Allie is the only one I would want in this game lol

I like threesomes.
Allie and Jasmine is definitely the only I want to see in this game.
I wouldn't object to Allie & Maggie, or Allie & Cammie, if Coop is down, either, but they aren't on my bingo board...

Hey everyone!

I’ve been delaying this announcement for a while… and many of you have been asking recently whether the update "might" still come this year. I really hoped it would, I pushed hard to try to make it happen, but for several reasons, it just won’t be possible. I want to explain everything clearly:

• Renders:
All renders are done. Of course, during testing there are always a few missing shots (that’s normal), but everything I planned, everything I managed to get back to for now - I finished.
However, there are still 500+ renders left to be rendered, and even with two PCs working nonstop, that alone means days of pure rendering time… and I still need time for all the other tasks.

• Animations:
There are a lot of animations left to render.
Because I changed the animation workflow and length, each animation now takes significantly longer - lighting, setup, the whole process became heavier. But I think the difference is obvious to the naked eye, and with every update I want them to look even better.
There are also a few animations still left to make. And when I’m working on animations, I can’t render images, so one thing slows down the other.

• Voice work:
Only two girls have their voices done so far. Several more still need theirs.
This part is out of my hands - I rely on other creators and Voice Actors, and I can’t pressure them too much. I also started this whole voice-pipeline a bit too late, even though I had many attempts and conversations before. Only in the past month have we really pushed forward in a serious, organized way.
My hope is that once the network is built, future updates will get their audio much earlier and this won’t cause delays anymore.

• And then… testing, Photoshop:
I only finished photoshopping three scenes so far. Additionally, the testers also need proper time for testing, feedback, and fixes. The holiday season is always busier for everyone, and I don’t want to put pressure on them. I want the testing phase to be calm and thorough. I also want to take the time to test everything myself as carefully as possible, because there are now many different paths, and with each update the game can be played in more and more ways. My own testing is usually rushed and done late at night, so this time I’d really like to give myself more time to do it properly.

On paper it all sounds small - and the story + text + renders are indeed done - but there are so many small details still unfinished, half-done, or hanging in the air.

Could I work days and nights, pressure everyone, and maybe force it out before Christmas?
Maybe.
But I’ve been through that hell once already when releasing Act 1 on Steam, and I honestly don’t want to put myself in that same place again. It left a mark on me, and I want to avoid that burnout spiral.
And with the holidays coming, I’d really like to spend a bit of calm time with my family instead of sitting stressed in front of the PC, knowing we’re “so close yet not quite ready.”
I know you’ve been waiting a long time.

And trust me - I’ve been waiting just as long to let you finally play this update. For me, this is my favorite one so far (though I guess each new one becomes my favorite, because I’m constantly learning and improving).

So at this point, I can safely say the update will release in January or February.
Once everything is wrapped up, I’ll give you a proper date breakdown like always.
My hope is that we start the new year by playing the new Race of Life update together. ❤

A bit of good news:
Over the last few days, I let the PCs render nonstop and focused on finishing the story and scene structure for Episode 5. I sent everything to Joshua today - which means he can start writing calmly while I finish polishing this update.
In the past, I always sent him the full outline after release, which usually delayed the next part by about a month. So maybe this time things will go smoother.

Thank you for sticking with me.

As soon as everything is rendered, I’ll let you know - and I hope we can also lock in the voice work so the full experience feels complete for you.

❤ Thank you for your patience, your support, and for being here with us.

 

[Dessolos]

I read the bit about voice actors I forgot that is just for lewd scenes and moans or is it actually gonna be for dialogue etc. Either way doesn't matter to me just curious

 

[Michkooo]

I don't mind waiting because I know this update will be legendary.

 

[NKP11]

Top 10 for sure. (Allison Route)

Its a shame to not get the update this year, but id rather wait and have an excellent update than rush it and have it incomplete. Also, having so many updates releasing this month, may be even good for the game, since there will be less "competition" when the update comes. And its difficult to start better a year than by getting an update of this masterpiece, so looking forward to Ep4, Allison im coming to win you back

I don't mind waiting because I know this update will be legendary.

True, some games are just that good and know how to captivate your interest long term.

Looking forward to more quality story content, some more friendly banter, some jealous outbursts here and there from our intellectual cuckquean and more 'scientific' material for all the scientists playing the game and waiting patiently this long for a new update to fap to study.

Bad guy ? It's a bit more nuanced than that

I mean, Allison herself admitted their marriage was heading the Titanic's way, and both she and the MC only did the bare minimum to save it, MC's aware of it too. When and why the divorce came is irrelevant knowing that marriage had an almost 100% chance of failure.

Don't know why this is even a debate, when it's explicitly stated in the story, but I guess not everyone paid attention to it.
