Ren'Py Rebel Duet [v0.13b] [ionDivvy]

[dexterousgecko]

Well I really liked this harem story, and the fact that any sharing is totally decided by the player (I'm not a fan of it, but I noticed there is no content bleed...so its nicely hidden with the writing). But it would also be great if some of the main girls when alone with MC (or leaving the scene, or when Val comes home from work), they would give MC a kiss to show their affection for him. It would give off more of a romantic relationship feeling to the story, considering they are already having sex with the him.

Also at the starting of the story when MC decided to soul bond with the succubus, it would have been cute if she got excited and kissed MC on the cheek after it was completed (he sort of saved her life choosing to bond). And then MC would touch his cheek and drift off for a bit, this would show how cute she can be to him. And it could be the starting point to their romance...as they go forward to further build their feelings for each other.

I also liked the scene in the tavern, when MC went to pick up Val and they decide to have sex on the table. It was a well done scene, and didn't feel transactional like I find with Val in front of the bed with the list of intimacy choices. It's nice to see more of those random sex scene with his girls, but also seeing them kiss him to show their affection towards MC. Especially when they greet him when they meet, as a kiss says they are with him...and appreciate and desire him (gives off the harem feeling).

Whats the point of the 3 personalities at the start, i tried the cold forcing MC thing but he still feel like a submissive simp.

The personality types are still very much a work-in-progress. It will be expanded over time, including v0.14. The MC also receives a ton of character development over the next two updates, which means they'll become much more confident and assertive.

Yo dev, just had a random thought , is there any plans for body modifications like piercings, tattoos, bigger boobs and bust for Valerie or the other companions if we go down their corruption path ? Or maybe even body modifications for the Mc if they lean into the corruption path ?

There will be optional physical changes if you follow the corruption route. I'm not totally decided on the specifics yet, but more succubus traits for Valerie (e.g. a tail, 'womb' tattoo) will definitely be part of it.

Body modifications are a possibility too, though I'd like to keep the physical appearance of everyone to just two variations—default or corrupted— since dozens of variations would be too much for a solo dev to handle.

Plenty more romance and kissing will be added for each of the girls.

Oh defo. I just thought physical changes happening to valerie, the companions and mc as they become more 'corrupted' is a great way to distinguish them from non corrupted paths but too much variations will eat away valuable dev time. Also can't wait for ve 0.14 (since it will have bdsm )

ionDivvy will the mc have options to be a sub in v0.13 ?? So far all the training scenes are with Val being blindfolded or tied and we have one sub dialogue choice for mc in the tavern .

Second preview of v0.14


v0.14 is now over halfway complete, with a release planned for January. There's a small chance it could be ready before the end of this year, but I'll keep everyone up-to-date in the next dev update.



This will be a significant update for the story. There's a lot of character development and heavy themes to explore, so I've been putting extra time into the script and dialogue to make sure it really lands for players.



In particular, the flashback section aims to portray the protagonist as a morally complex individual. There's a number of situations here where there isn't really a 'right' or 'wrong', and I want to leave it up to the player to decide how they feel about these topics.

I've also taken a few days to expand on the fantasy lore and worldbuilding. For example, elven culture, geography, and in-game history that stretches across ~800 years. This won't appear much in the game just yet, but it lays the foundation for Act 4 onwards, where the game's setting (Uldreza) will be developed a lot further.

For players who enjoy these details, I'll be adding optional books and notes in the future that can be read through the in-game glossary. I'd also like to add scenes (possibly to the map system) with side characters and townspeople discussing these topics.



I hope you look forward to v0.14. Thanks to everyone for playing Rebel Duet. I'll be back next month with a new progress update!
