VN Ren'Py Completed Rick and Morty: Another Way Home [r4.0P7] [Night Mirror]

[Night Mirror]

Is there going to be more to the Epilogue? I see this has the complete tag so wanted to be sure.

Yes, an epilogue is still in progress, but not soon.

One thought that has always been on the back of my mind is that I wonder if the updates stopped because this mod became more popular than the original game and Ferdafs didn't like that? Or people were giving his version too much of a hard time because of this version to the point where he decided to just give up? Just

Nah ferals already dropped 3 games before this one. I was wating for him to dropped this one aswell since day 1, he is just a very VERY lazy DEV, and i know saying lazy might sound harsh but this guy was making a lot of money on the early days of his "career"

Hey Nightmirror . Been Long since Ive visited the thread as it hasn't showed up in the recently updated page.

I know this has probably been asked and answered multiple times, but I don't think I'll be able to find it in 334 pages.

I Just saw this response from you and had a question.

Yes, an epilogue is still in progress, but not soon.

Are you going to include some of the options that were listed in the requests Excel sheet with this Epilogue?
Asking as some of them are from as early as Beth "Just the Tip" Scene from Day 23 "Add Vaginal Option".

TBH Its one of the many Suggestions that I had liked from the Request.

Again this is Probably out of scope for you at this stage, but given that the Original had been Abandoned for close to a year now Adding those suggestions is ANY of your upcoming updates would be AWESOME.

Hell Start a Poll on them right here.

Like "List 10 scenes additions/Edits from the Requests" and the top 3-4 Most voted get included kinda thing.

Just saying as a big fan of your work and effort that More of it is ALWAYS a good and welcome thing.

Goes without saying, But I'll say it anyways, LOVE YOUR WORK.

Take care and Peace out.

Items from the request list would be more of a phase 3 sort of thing (see the future plans link in my sig).

But I'll be honest, I'm really struggling to get though phase 2 (the epilogue). And the odds of me doing more beyond the epilogue, are very, very, very low.

I don't know if this is an error but I got to Hypnotoad (cute reference btw) and went with the Mind Control but it went a bit far for what I wanted so I went back to an earlier save and declined the mind control option, but then in the dialogue with Morticia later she references being achy from sex with me (I chose to have sex with her the previous day) an Morty's response thought is "mom did her with the dildo a few hours ago" so even though I did a rollback and by event order the hypno stuff didn't happen, the game still seems to think it did.
Hopefully it won't affect anything else going forward.

It isn't a bug, but I don't know if you'll like the answer either?

This game has three~ish sorts of decisions that come up:

• "Choices" (things like take/don't take birth control) that will be remembered by the game (and can be changed on the Do Over menu)
• "Alternate scenes" often over objectionable content (rape, ntr, etc...), or for pull out/cum inside, that will show a different version of the scene and be remembered by the game (and can sometimes be changed on the Do Over menu)
• "Skips", which have no gameplay effect, but bypass the scene for the player, not the characters. Skips have reminder text about skipping having no gameplay effect (the same as using tab or ctrl to skip through the scenem stead of watching it), and are never shown on the Do Over menu.

In the case of Hypnotortoisefrog, the option not to take part is a "skip", a player choice not to watch the scene rather than it not to have happened. So, it happens regardless of if you watch it or not within the context of the game.

But why? Why not just bypass it and have the game remember that action?

The short version is, because the original game by Ferdafs (of which this is a remake/mod/port/whatever), has no alternate scenes. Everything happens in that game, with very (very) little player input, outside of which viewing order. Anything I want different, I have to make... and I'm a programmer, not an arist, making new content is~ challanging for me. This is a big game, I had to choose what content I wanted to spend time on.

In this version, I added many (many) choices, and sometimes new scenes. But I couldn't do it everywhere, and some scenes got more attention than others. Additionally, I was also unsure which scenes might become important in future updates, and had to be careful not to write myself into a corner.

Some scenes, like this one, thus got a "skip" option (due to many factors). So... you can skip it, but it still happened, even if you, the player, didn't watch it. (Although, I think outside of that one mention by Morticia, it isn't brought up again?)


However this one scene has come up a lot throughout this thread. I think because it has a little stinger about the frog escaping, rahter than just cutting to black, which feels like its an "End/Alternate" choice, vs a skip. I've thought about cutting the little bit several times, just to make it more clear that it is a skip... but the frog jumping through the roof still makes me laugh, so I can't bring myself to ax it.

Maybe I will just make it an alternate (it has so little impact, it seems silly), so players are less confused by it... assuming another update ever comes out :x

nah, thats alright. I mean going through the effort of elevating Ferdafs work is enough, and it makes sense since you're not an artist that you can't really alter the flow of events the same way. Just stuck out to me is all, I'm used to games where the branching path of decisions creates a somewhat unique playthrough, but this more "on the rails, along for the ride" style is enjoyable in its own way. I'm liking the content so far.

[Reluctant Sinner]

I shudder to imagine the eventual consequences of my actions when I finally reach this story's endgame... and then I hit the "no birth control" button again.

someone's gonna have to pay for my hubris...

This one is a linear story the other one theres "choices" so to speak

I wouldn't say the Unity game has "choice". It has the option of what order to view the content in, but the content is always the same, regardless of when you view it. And, often you still have to view other content before continuing, so even that small choice is limited.

The Unity game has choice in the same way you can choose which replay scenes to watch, just with extra steps in between. I think of it akin to a book, where the chapters are out of order, and I can choose which one to read next, but in the end, I still read them all.

This version doesn't have a lot more "choice" (again, it isn't a branching game), but it does have more choices in it. In the original game, the vast majority of scenes are always same, there are almost no choice to make. In the Renpy game, both past choices, and actions in scene, change the current and future scenes (if only slightly).

Neither of these games are "make your own adventure", they are linear stories, just presented in different ways.

But they both exist, so, play the version you enjoy.

Hello everyone.
This is my first time writing here.
First of all I have to compliment whoever made this game!
I was hooked from the first moment!
But my question is:
Is there any other game similar to this? In terms of quality and content?

Something Unlimited, FET, 18Titans, Rogue-Like, I've heard good things about Summertime Saga, and there's always the original version of this one.
