Ren'Py Rogue-like: Evolution [v1.52a] [Oni]

[leathermax]

You DO know what "zyklon" is right

After the Semon man mentioned it, yeah.
It's pretty metal.

I think all of that is a bit too ambitious. If we accept that the game right now is not much more than a date sim, the improvements that could be done would be: more locations to hang around with the girls, like a clothes shop instead of buying trhough Amazon or whatever or a field trip to go treking, an anything around the campus, too, because now there are so many girls that soon all public locations in the game will be filled with 2 girls and some would still be in their rooms.

I can see where you're coming from.

I guess what I'm hoping for is some sign of more ambition. Even an increase to the number of girls that can be front-and-center. If the Stepford Cuckoos were a popular request the convention/limit of 2 girls would have to go (even if the maximum of a threesome remained for sex interactions). Even right now there's good reason for a cast of 5 or 6 to appear onscreen together - say in the classroom. Maybe that limit of 2 is needed for performance (Renpy and Python aren't built for speed) but it really narrows the scope.

When what's added in updates is what could be added by modders the new stuff feels regrettably familiar; but when that keeps happening - repeatedly - it feels not ambitious enough IMO.

Which girl has the best ass in your opinion? I think Rogue's is probably my favorite.

She doesnt have the biggest butt, but i really like laura's, its so toned and i want to slap it forever.

I get this warning in Linux Terminal while playing:

libpng warning: Buffer error in compressed datastream in iCCP chunk
libpng warning: Profile size field missing from iCCP chunk

Those two lines repeat after another eating the ram at the process...

seems to be more for a mechanical point, both to make it simpler for him and to the player on threesome actions - you can give the other girl one command per "turn" currently. would need a system overhaul to make it not be confusing.

the whole call system to be able to summon a second girl is already so

there are some times when more than two girls were in the classroom when I took classes. At those points I had to choose where to sit, between two of the girls at most.

if the stepford cuckoos are added, I's suggest it be either just one at a time, basically a younger emma, being able to call two and count as a threesome, or have three but counting as one single character like Cerberus in Helltaker.

Well people including myself have been ranting & raving on Oni's patreon that HE NEEDS TO FLESH OUT WHAT IS CURRENTLY THERE. So hopefully he listens but he's pretty damned stubborn in this regard, who knows when he'll do as people request or add another dumb feature like he did with microtransactions.. I mean I suggested something last year that was pretty good for financial concerns, fit the in game world & it could be used to get points out of the girls but nah he ignored my suggestions to add something menial at best.
He really does need to expand what we currently have, it's a good go to due to good art (to wank of course) but it lacks any depth.

 

[YoraeRasante]

The microtransactions were a good idea I think, a way to get more money to buy clothes and use on dates...
But they use too much time for not much payment, and yet are limited in number for the day.
...
also, since we already have daily money and there is no wall that needs it save for dates and swimsuits, thus no real need to grind and it is just to get money faster, this is basically the point it is acceptable to put a minigame...

 

[salscou]

Maybe a minigame about going on X-men missions based on how much you train and your relationships with whatever girl you go with?

Caming studio for the girls (New location, source of money, new content where you can film a porno)
More permanent items/outfits to fit the architype of the girls. (Rogue is affection so a ring, kitty was sub so bondage gear and collar, emma was exhibition so custom piercings and a camera).
Some more story events like the halloween party, like going on an infiltration mission or just a gathering someplace new.

hey long time no see any update??

Rogue for sure but i think Laura has the hottest backside overall

I've started another playthrough on the latest version, and it seems that no matter how many times I get caught with a girl by Professor X, I never get the option to tell him to leave us alone. In previous playthroughs that would happen pretty quickly, but it hasn't happened at all on this playthrough. Is this a glitch, or is there something I need to do to trigger it?

The Pro just finally decided to watch and fap instead of interrupting

I'd guess more girls in the cast attracts more patrons (if someone's fav is included, they care whereas before they'd no reason to), but more gameplay just means more complications for debugging and quality control.

Unless someone else starts a competing dating sim similar to Rogue-like: Evolution (^1) the priorities can't be expected to shift.

Is the name Rogue-like-like: Evolution too on the nose?

Kitty Pride would love this name xD

How high level are the girls? You can only get wheels to leave you alone if they're a high enough level to carry out the various plans

To see the option for a plan, it requires that the current time is not Night, that the girl is in the study with you, and that the Player Level is greater than or equal to 5. Actually executing the plan requires passing an approval check of 1500 with the girl that is there, and in some cases other requirements are needed.

• Kitty requires "Xavier's Photo" (Potentially found by searching the left desk drawer in his office at night with Kitty present to open it, but not Storm who will prevent you taking it).
• Laura also needs to be at least level 2 and have at least 750 Inhibition.
• Storm requires "Xavier's files" (Potentially found searching the right desk drawer at night with Storm present find the files).

When looking for blackmail material (or the money hidden in the bookshelf or the keys in the middle drawer of the desk) the chance of being caught is handled via a comparison of a d20 roll to a difficulty check (with the roll needing to be greater or equal to the check value) these checks start at 5 for the bookshelf, 10 for the left drawer, 15 for the middle drawer, and 5 for the right drawer, but will increase by 3 for each location you search that visit. Once it's confirmed you are not caught, a second d20 check is made to see if you actually find the item for that location, though these checks do not increase in difficulty. The difficulty 15 for the bookshelf, 10 for the left drawer, guaranteed for the middle drawer (provided you don't already have the keys), and 10 for the right drawer.

Given I've covered the rest, it should be noted that opening the box of money on the bookshelf requires the girl you ask to do it have 700 inhibition or 1800 total stats. Also, if Kitty is present, you can only ask her, while storm can only be asked if she is present and kitty is not.

Given the increasing difficulty, if trying to get as much as you can in a single visit (the left and right drawers are mutually exclusive due to storm being required for one and preventing the other), you should start with the middle drawer, then do the other drawer and lastly the bookshelf (reloading if ever you search a location and don't get the loot for it). Also keep in mind that once the loot from a given location is obtained, you can't get anything else from that location, and searching there will just make it harder to find stuff in the other locations.

If you are so inclined to cheat via console command, you can ensure that you are not caught, as the d20 roll result is a variable named "D20" (without the quotes) that is set randomly before giving you the options of where to search and compared after you make your choice. Thus you can just set the value to an arbitrary high number to pass the check for being caught. While the variable is reused for the secondary checks on the locations, it is re-assigned a new random value and checked immediately after with no pause to try changing the value.

Further, if you don't mind using console commands, you can find everything in one visit. Doing so requires using the commands to change where Storm is mid searching. This requires modifying the variable "StormX.Loc" and either setting it to "bg study" (with the quotes) when you are going to search the right drawer (no later than the line "You search through some documents, but don't find anything.") or if you started with her there, setting the noted variable to anything else when searching the left drawer (no later than the line "She's reaching down to adjust his . . . oh, that's interesting.").

While we're at the impossible dreams spitballing, I'd like the game to not railroad me into orgy headmaster and react accordingly to sticking to one girl.

Speaking of, is there a way to take a shower in peace in this game? Because the way these ladies (and I use that term very loosely) keep barging in on me while I'm naked is not cool, and the lascivious looks in their eyes when they do has me wondering if this game's going to be needing a Reverse-Rape tag in the future.

It does actually piss me off how if you see them naked they get mad at you and talk shit, but when they do its just a whoopsie, professor xavier really needs to set up two different baths to avoid this problem in the future.
