Ren'Py Rogue-like: Evolution [v1.54b] [Oni]

[primavera9925]

Ron Chon — Today
hey all, as promised, I have big news re: the future of Chonky Mod I've become 1) increasingly tired of being limited by Oni's art, animations, and ideas and 2) more and more eager to accelerate progress towards making this a playable game/mod that meets my lofty expectations. so, I've decided to bite the bullet and a) hire some people to help me out and b) fully break free from Oni's shadow in favor of a new vision for what the game should look like this means a couple things. first, instead of a mod for Rogue-Like, I will be shifting the systems and mechanics I've developed towards the making of an entirely new Ren'Py game with some commonalities and many features distinguishing it from the original game to make this a clean break, it makes the most sense to no longer use Oni's base art. I expect that this will be disappointing to any artists who have been working on outfits for the base art with the hopes of it being included in Chonky Mod, but I truly believe that having our own art source from now on will give us miles more creative freedom in the long term so far, I've arranged standing commissions with two new artists who have started to chip away at setting up the main characters and outfit sets. I've found another writer to help with the story and scenes, since we're going to have to start fresh there as well. finally, I have at least one new programmer who will be helping me with core game functionality, with another one who I'm assessing to see if they can help with animations this document goes into some further details about the project:

Introducing: Project [Redacted] This is an adventure/dating sim game set in the X-Men universe and written in Ren’Py. The premise is the following: You are a mutant who has recently discovered he has the power to nullify other mutants’ powers. You have been taken in by Charles Xavier, who runs a ...

accompanying this news, I'm announcing the start of a Patreon page where anyone else is welcome to help contribute to the development of this project. being a patron is not, and will not ever be, required to play the game. current builds will be made publicly available, just as they were for Chonky Mod, forever. this is not a commercial project Patreon is simply a mechanism for us to collect donations that we can inject back into the development process to speed things along. donations to the Patreon will be infused right back into the game via commissioning more art, writing, and code. the income will be kept public, and I will not personally pocket a cent - if for some reason, the Patreon does well, that just means we will be commissioning a lot of art and writing. to make it crystal clear that this is not a paywall, the game will not be hosted on the Patreon if this arrangement ever changes, then it will be announced very publicly and well in-advance just to reiterate, if you do not wish to donate, there is absolutely no requirement to do so. if you do wish to donate, your contribution will directly accelerate the rate of art and writing production. here is the link:

I'd like to clarify that I won't be abandoning getting Psylocke set up for Oni style, though I will likely wind up making another version of her as well and I will continue making UI and other assets

Just means she might not get as many outfits from me but she will be workable for others to make stuff for


Ron Chon — Today
@ ...... and @ ...... I hear your mixed feelings here, and I think I can partially allay them! since the game mechanics that will serve as the basis for the new game are the same that have gone into the Chonky Mod, it's actually... not that hard to mix and match characters designed by different people. therefore, you can expect us to release an optional "DLC" package containing Oni's art. the idea being that you can download a zip file containing Oni's art and the code required to support it, drop it into the new game's directory, and in-game toggle that you would like to use, say, Oni's Jubilee instead of our new Jubilee

I'm very skeptical, hope to be proven wrong.

I don't know, it seems a bit too ambitious. Discarding Oni's art being one of the game's best assests doesn't sit right with me. Including a story mod which might lock certain interactions behind storywalls or missions is something I'd really dislike, because this game being a date sim-sandbox is it's other greatest asset. I hope that whoever takes the art role makes a faithful imitation of Oni's style but with different positions so that the fucking Jean Gray Spiderwoman-like monstrosity stops haunting us all (and also to do justice to Jubes, ffs). And make story stuff optional, too, so that we can keeps our daily lives of haremblobbing anything that looks womanly.

I have to agree, im hooked on the designs and the fact that you can do whatever the fuck you want in the game, Want to tell all other girls to fuck off and declare your undying love to rogue? you can.
Want to have a hot for teacher simulator and be the hero of the school? you can.
Want to focus on your studies and embrace the ways of the wizard? you actually cant because, as research shows, eventually laura will rape you.

I don't want to paint the devil on the wall. I smell trouble there, so far it was more or less a free mod, but now they are trying to make money through oni's preparatory work. I think they should contact oni first if they could work together or something similar. there are still copyrights. money changes everything. in the worst case, lawyers will have to be paid in the end.

 

[depechedNode]

I don't think there's any copyright issue if they go with the DLC or patch plan for Oni's content as they said. Coding is new, art is new, music (if any) is new, etc, so nothing for a copyright case and if there were any other copyright issues, Oni would be in big trouble already with some big companies IMO.

And for scepticals, I'm one too. But we'll see, Ron Chon so far seems like a good dev (also his partners in crime), so hope is very strong currently.

I'm curious how this will turn out I'm really hoping for mystic (it would bring a lot of new possibilities into the game) psylocke would be nice too. I would also like a further development for dancing and striping. A side view and a rear view of the normal posing for dancing would be nice instead of just the up and down so that it looks as if she is turning, of course a little breast wiggling should not be missing. more clothes and maybe missions and a combat system, destructible clothes in missions would be nice. to be honest right now the long term mutivation leaves a lot to be desired after the status bars are full it gets kind of boring and you start over.

damn, this is truly inspiring, is like a independence act signature, when the horny and angry people, tired of oni's tyrannical laziness decided to make their own game

 

[Helivesoncemore]

I've seen things like this try, then crash and burn time and time again. I don't have high hopes. Maybe I'll be proven wrong tho.

 

[Erudito]

I think they should contact oni first if they could work together

It seems that you aren't familiar with Oni's modus operandi(or lack thereof).

But to answer your other doubts, b) already specifically answers it:

b) fully break free from Oni's shadow in favor of a new vision for what the game should look like this means a couple things. first, instead of a mod for Rogue-Like, I will be shifting the systems and mechanics I've developed towards the making of an entirely new Ren'Py game with some commonalities and many features distinguishing it from the original game to make this a clean break, it makes the most sense to no longer use Oni's base art.

and also

this is not a commercial project Patreon is simply a mechanism for us to collect donations that we can inject back into the development process to speed things along. donations to the Patreon will be infused right back into the game via commissioning more art, writing, and code. the income will be kept public, and I will not personally pocket a cent - if for some reason, the Patreon does well, that just means we will be commissioning a lot of art and writing. to make it crystal clear that this is not a paywall, the game will not be hosted on the Patreon if this arrangement ever changes, then it will be announced very publicly and well in-advance just to reiterate, if you do not wish to donate, there is absolutely no requirement to do so. if you do wish to donate, your contribution will directly accelerate the rate of art and writing production.

Although i will keep my expectations in check and see where this goes first. Ron Chon, don't be another Oni or i will eat you owo

According to the devs adding more poses are in the plans like laying in bed with the girls. So anything is possible I guess, let's hope they can do lots of different poses.

There's always someone hungrier. They can only afford to do this because a.- it's a porn "parody" that the Mouse doesn't want to touch with a ten foot stick and b.- Oni in particular has burned so much goodwill and sat on his ass for basically 4+ years.

 

[Buttholder]

Want to focus on your studies and embrace the ways of the wizard? you actually cant because, as research shows, eventually laura will rape you.

Can't rape the willing.

 

[YoraeRasante]

Is it a bug that all are covered except the storm?

Storm is supposed to have low hangups about nudity so...

I honestly don't get it.
Doubt the Patreon is a new thing, and now they are specifically going to use non-Oni art.
Do you mean because it started as a mod of RLE and now it is going its separate way?

 

[Crichton]

1. Woooo Chonky-train hasn't left station yet, but they've clearly built a good engine... I think?
2. How does one get raped by Laura? Can the others do that? Zero has always been the predator as far as mechanics and events went.

Any chance we can see the works of the artists on retainer? Definitely has my interest piqued!

Our brother was robbed of his wizard mana.

1. Woooo Chonky-train hasn't left station yet, but they've clearly built a good engine... I think?
2. How does one get raped by Laura? Can the others do that? Zero has always been the predator as far as mechanics and events went.

According to the guy that did that run, he avoided any innapropiate touch or flirting with any on them, eventually laura will just get horny and drag you off somewhere since youre the only dick in town.

 

[Semondemon]

Nah once Laura likes you enough, she just goes we're fucking and you can even do it in a public space lmao. She'll run off, accept it or Xavier will break it up. Laura straight up forces you to shoe horn her tho lmao, in any playthrough i've done just mildly being nice to her she rushes for me hard. Fondling her body enough times will get her into the "hey man I want sex, I WANT IT NOW" scenario.

Zero is a predator? as far as i have play, this "ladies" assault me in the showers, classes, even while training, even when i play the love-kind route

When?

I left them alone and nothing happened.

 

[Dante20]

can someone post jubes´ mod and Installation Instructions (mac) i suck at tecnology

 

[Ghostload]

Open the Rogue folder.

Copy and paste the game mod.

It will automatically replace the previous game folder.
