I do think the game would have been interesting as a slower burn with The MC choosinng to improve himself and get the girls rather than just naturally be perfect at everything but, the open free roam game play was pretty dull and grindy.

I wonder why hardly anyone tries the adventure approach.
That would be free roam but additional focus on feedback and hints about what's to do next, maybe but not necessarily with inventory. No stat grinding, just "todo" quests. Very few games go that route, some go for a mixed mode to stretch "play" time.
Are these really so hard to make? Sure, they require some more planning (for example a dead end would be if you can get rid of an item before you have used it for all actions it can be used for and we definitly don't want that) and more text (for the dialogs with the hints), but it must be doable, right?

Rejected No More (v0.2.2) Cheat Mod

-Scrappy Cheat Mod not worked in v0.2.2 so, I updated Scrappy Cheat Mod and this is worked in v0.2.2

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

Error Fixed

DOWNLOAD LINKS
MEGA



hello, several errors occur that do not allow to continue playing when the latest mod is installed with the errors fixed. Clean installation and new game.

I leave you the first error, in case the mod is repaired one day.


Playing without the mod the game works fine, just install the mod for the money, although at no time did I activate the cheats, so I recommend playing without the mod installed, although the effort for the work is appreciated

NOTE: it would be good if someone does a walkthrough

I recoment the next best thing .. No more money .. that is more luster oriented.


This one has many mundane work chores around the house,
those kill a lot of the mood and then dialogues fall out the blue.
I think that more of a preference. I myself loved that factor of the game it felt like I was improving myself instead of being perfect and getting the girls IMO.

This got dropped as the other one got so much more success.
There, the updates are meatier and this lackluster repetitive sand box bankrupt mechanichs
just do not do it anymore.
That new game design and direction took off and is still going.

Highly doubt dev is ever coming back to this one, No more money is a success and he's working on Paradox now as well, another game that looks pretty good, he did mention that the guy who did the renders for Paradox lost Interest so he's currently looking for a new guy because he likes the story and wants to continue the game, that pretty much tells us that once NMM is completed RR will most likely shift his full attention to Paradox and this bastard child will be left on the burner once again.

NMM is just a click-until-your-fingers-bleed novel. As I understood, a free roaming game like NMR turned out to be a LOT more work than a visual novel and he wasn't prepared to face that. For a one man project that can turn out quite a challenge.

And sandbox is not clicking until your fingers are bleeding ?
Often with added frustration factors like : repeating scenes, grind, empty rooms/locations and trying to find out how to trigger the next scenes etc.

But no this wasn't a solo project of royalcandy, was a 2 man team iirc, but the game didn't make enough money for his partner and he quit
(tried to make his own vn 'Lockdown' shortly after, which he put on hold (indefinitely) after first release and one update).
I think there was also some job related problems on royalcandy's side and him admiting that the sandbox, coupled with the high amount of renders in this game is too much work for him alone, which is why he switched back to simple vn.

I would not call these free roaming games sandbox (even if others do), I played sandbox in the past and they don't come even close. Apart from that: Yes, you actually need to move the mouse and find the right room. And there ARE a few free roaming games which even go towards adventure style gameplay. But you are right, most of the time devs use that stupid "grind love/corruption/relatioship points" aspect in their games to stretch gameplay time.
Anyway: It was not about gameplay (which visual novels don't have), it was about the design. Free roaming is a lot more work.

Thanks about the background info.

characters look great story is okay hope the onhold tag is removed and the game continues.
I don't see that happening any time soon. Some tit-bags whined until he stopped doing this one and started No More Money. I'd say he may come back to this one after he finishes that one. But I don't hold my breath for it. It is a good game. And a good idea on what to do with it. His first one was banging. Third one is banging. Hope this one is, too.

Had nothing to do with whining, his partner quit as the game didn't make enough money and it was too much work for royalcandy alone.
Most whining and confusion was about the voyeur/ntr content, which was removed.

I didn't know RC had a partner who quit. But those people are exactly who I'm referring to. Instead of just not playing a game because it has what they don't like, they have to ruin it for everyone who does. They cried like an entitled brat because it wasn't their way. I say RC should do what he wants and to foot with what everyone says.

As far as i remember, the confusion about the whole voyeur/ntr part was also partly because the dev didn't explained it good or was unsure about it himself...overall i was glad the parts where removed, they feeled like a copy of big brother, and Erik was also poorly done in that game imo.
Althought i find the MC in this game is bad or an absolute creep...which is way worse.

Yeah his partner started an other game, Lockdown but it didn't make it beyond 0.2 either.
