VN Ren'Py Abandoned Science Of Lust [Intro] [Tora Productions]

[MaxCarna]

Wow, that project came out very fast. I thought it would take longer to you guys to assemble something. It's a good strategy, share a prototype sooner, get feedback earlier and define how the project will evolve.

Related to the graphics, I felt that some renders look a bit strange, it seems pixelated at first, but them it seems a different resource, especially in the classroom. It is the denoiser from Daz latest beta? I guess that the renders were made very fast, because you too should have just a few days since the game conception. The shower images, on the other side, seems great. Other images seems too bright. Teacher walking seems to have a cartoon effect.

Related to the narrative style, I think that the previous games always focused much more on the girl/woman that mc is pursuing. We heard very little about the male character. This one seems to be more focused on the male, specially because many girls are presented, there is no time to go deep in one of them. I believe that users loyal to Tora's games may miss this level of depth with a female character, the one that would be the mc target.

It is very good to see you guys around here, I wish a lot of success in this new initiative. It should not be easy at all to deal with Tlaero's departure.

Tlaero and I made Dreaming with Elsa, Redemption for Jessika, Finding Miranda, Saving Chloe and Darkness Falls, as wells as coming to Grips with Christine and Pandora and iksanabot wrote games at Lesson of Passion like Living with Temptation, the first Living with Temptation expansion: Wife Gone Wilder, Living with Temptation 2: Foreign Affairs and Seducing the Throne

Am I completely off my rockers in thinking you did the beautiful renders for Gates: the opening? My appologies if so.. also didn't know that iksanabot wrote those for LoP, esspecially LwT and it's expansions are some of my favourites of their offering, will most likely join you over on patreon once I've had a look at the demo. Thanks for sharing

Iksanabot has some specific questions he’d like to read comments on: Your favorite and least favorite character, scene, line of dialogue, and image.

Favorite Character: Favorite character visually right now is the professor. The two gals at the gym (MacKenzie and the other one) aren't bad. But I hope their personalities/characters will get fleshed out.

Least Favorite Character: Not a fan of Jordyn's look. Girl in the coffee shop is cute, but she reminds me a lot of Melissa from Acting Lessons, who had zero personality and I couldn't feel invested in.

Line of Dialogue: "Are you going to change too?" "Nah, I got to take a dump."

Favorite Scene: None yet, though I'm sure there'll be some good ones in the larger build. I would suggest making the professor's breasts sway at normal speeds--they're way too fast now.

Images: No favorite image but the renders look pretty good. MC running looks pretty weird and overly comical--might want to tone it down some.

Some other suggestions: More milfs. Keep the animations at normal speeds. Hope there'll be plenty of Steve for comic relief.

Hope this helps, best of luck with the game! Will keep an eye on it.

I don't know I get the 'mc as a melon' reference. I've played every Tlaero game (Phreaky and Mortze), and while they weren't typical alpha males they were the type of male a woman would seem to want in a game like this (not every man is Eric...). Think about your storyteller...

Also, djkunn - Hard fetishes? Er? Where? In what Tora Game?

I'm not sure Iksanabot will bring THAT feeling, but I'm intrigued by this duo. Let's see what they actually do together (after this; it is just an intro).

I will watch this with great interest. The senate approves.

I'm not familiar with other Tlaero games, but agreed on having reasonable, realistic male leads. I too would be worried about my boner if surrounded with such women.

That said, I did find some of the MC's physical anguish over having a boner to be way overdone. I don't think I've ever had a boner-driven bad day. 30 minutes, maybe.

New game from Tora? Instant download!

 

[Kaldapas]

Has to be the best intro.

Fave char was the professor Pastore seems like she'll be the star of the game. Least fave Lily and Sara or maybe that 'beautiful' gym girl. The fit gym girl was fine and library ebony chick is fine as well. Must say very well put together intro.

I don't know if i should be scared - or thrilled - over the idea of a whole boner-driven bad day. Well, as long as one's dick doesn't turn purple or fall off, i guess.

As an Elsaverse fangirl i'm looking forward to seeing what the boys can do with a whole new storyline.

With Tlaero now retired i'm expecting big things from this new partnership.

Knew you'd be here shortly...

I don't know whether to be happy at being recognised or sad that i'm incredibly predictable.

 

[ZagorTeNay]

Pretty promising so far. Made me laugh a few times, poor guy, hits a bit too close to the truth.
Visuals are good, tho a bit too grainy in some scenes, bit too strong color contrast ( like it's on SweetFX, especially with "glowing" character eyes), and one or two odd facial expressions ( though really minor, and look kind of funny)
With gifs: I think very, very few VNs do it well and end up a waste of effort; I'd go with more plain pictures, from different angles.
Only major complaint is too much of descriptive: "You decide...you see...you go to ... etc". I'd tone it down a bit, use just plain monologue ( more), and let an image speak on its own ( at times).
Characters seem interesting, look natural, pretty good dialogue/introduction/variety.
Some music would also be welcome.

Ah ok, I was looking for Tlaero and Mortze.

 

[thereaper27]

Tlaero and Mortze have a fetish of making you play as an absolute loser and dreg on society. I remember a game where they had you play as an overweight slob whom was chasing after a teenage girl in a boat. I think I remember their remaining games had you play guys with personalities of a melon.

Pandora wasn't that great for a tora games but playing a "loser" is kind of mind blowing in "porn" games filled with alpha males cause it's kind of delusional

Tiareo&Mortze have made some of my favorite browser games (even if I often had to manipulate the tabs to get the best score possible). And Iksanabot has been involved with some of LoP's "golden age" games. So this project is promising by default for me.

Only thing that worried me a bit is the Patreon poll thing. Usually when patreons are that involved in development, it affects the story and it ends up in "waifu of the month" releases.

Who is Iksanabot? The artist?

 

[AL.d]

Who is Iksanabot? The artist?

Iksanabot wrote for LoP games. I'm guessing the same applies for this one too.

 

[Avaron1974]

Who is Iksanabot? The artist?

As far as i'm aware, Mortze is the artist. Tlaero was the writer before her retirement so I assume Iksanabot has taken over that role.

 

[Felicityskye]

Who is Iksanabot? The artist?

If I'm not mistaken, the writer. If I recall correctly he is the one who created the concept and wrote LOPGOLD's Living with Temptation series.
