Ren'Py Completed Space Journey X [v2.20_022] [y.v.]

[slowparson]

As to my next project, this is still not fully decided. As I extended space journey, X a bit I thought that at least part of the poll which asked for continuation has been delivered with these extensional episodes.

Probably, I will make a smaller SIM game to get used to the Godot engine. Maybe a sexbot arcade thing...

After that, I am leaning to a sandbox of the current style again, but this time using godot engine, which would allow me to add much better mini games. The character conversation layer I can easily do myself.

Honestly, the real question is what choice of game style would be chosen. Another "harem" RPG? Go back to turn-based strategy like Goblin & Princess, but with more than one enemy (ie, Risk instead of chess)? Be lazy and just do a puzzle game that unlocks images (hopefully not, although would be an interesting excuse to test out image generation and prompt engineering)?

Still, doing a sandbox style top-down old GTA game could be quite interesting, one of my few gripes with your games is the complete mouse dependence. Clicking through hub-and-spoke location design to get around like a Myst game gets super tedious after a while... though still less clicking going around the ship than going around Myst. But having to implement fast travel for the ship's interior, hilarious!

Some arrow key action would be nice, though. Even just for minigames. The bigger issue with minigame design is designing them so they are initially interesting, but also can be automated or later ignored by players as they advance. Otherwise, the mini-game just ends up becoming the game...

I feel compelled to argue a philosophical matter here:

• if you work in engineering, then purchasing is the dark side, because the crappy suppliers they chose (and nominate far too late...) will cause all kind of series production issues and engineering has to come to the rescue but gets blamed regardless
• if you work in sw dev, then its sales by a wide long margin. they promis sh*t that doesn't exist, push deadlines and then side with the customer and hit you over the head if bugs occur

To stay on topic here, as to the supplement request this already sort of exists. If you drink a Stellar shake, then the main character gets recharged.

Im telling you, a single location manager game so you can focus on the animations that you wanted to do, open world and travel mechanics just convolute things

I like that Y.V. is challenging himself and trying new things. Taught himself coding. Started small with Princess and the Tower. Which is still really good for a small game. Only has like 7 rooms and 4 characters. But still great. Then moved on to something more ambitious, which turned out to be an even greater success. Dozens of models, characters, a story, combat, base building, ship modification, bot modification, bartering/trading, and more. Kept pushing forward and succeeding.

He seems to have a gift for taking on new challenges and turning them into gold. I say stick to that recipe.

Maybe next game should push new boundaries again. Maybe this involves making the game bigger. Or more characters. or more/new mechanics. etc.

I would prefer not to make specific suggestions. He seem to instinctively find treasure and I don't want to mess with the recipe.

Fair, its just a small step for future expectations to blow up into a "no man's sky" situation and that is just pain, dev burnout because of feature creep is too real.... don't stretch yourself thin

How do I best get FP with Khelara?

Initially? Take some piratey missions (smuggling and bounty). She appreciates you earning serious cash that way.

I thought so, I'm destroying the Galaxy but she doesn't care.... but thankfully you focusing about cash got me to just give her money with my Multipass and she feels appreciated with 1000 cash. Thanks

And don't forget to give Vee also a krell uniform...

You sneaky dirtbag! When I got Vee, I had the other two uniforms & I tried to give her both of those and she declined. I didn't even bother with the Krell uniform.

(FYI - I downloaded this game right after finishing the Princess & the Tower, but just started playing it a couple days ago. Totally loving it.)

there is some odd thing that eventually comes to my mind, are those communicator tags when girls are wearing less clothing, those are suposed to be attached to cloth even by a pin or some velcro type thingy, but on skin? wouldn't be better to have some kind of nipple piercing type? left side for communicator and right side for ship rank.. and ofc some crew members could have some issues on wearing them or losing maybe as they are on milking program

That could give a nice flair to some of the uniforms. You remember, Moira has to wear her visitor tag too

Im trying to fix the milking machine, but cant seem to figure out where to find the Carbon Nanotubes. Pls help anyone..

They're dropped by the Swarm ships, they can be mined in the Void, they can be mined in the Swarm system...

Thank you very much for the quick reply..

I have a problem with gaining additional appreciation points with Khelara. I've tried doing bounty and smuggling missions and talking to her in the engine room after doing each mission. Also, I've tried giving her voronian vortex multiple times. Appreciation stat stays on 9 and I can't progress with new quest in 210.011 version. Any ideas?

Have you solved the space epidemic yet? And she likes a different liquor in her cabin. The princess likes vortex.

I've solved the epidemic, got access to Quthor Station and got the mission which needs asking Khelara for a favour. I've tried giving her

The nipple badges was a great idea. I hope he works this in somehow.

What about a new Captain's pet job? I thought of this when I realized you never actually see the MC holding the leash.

She follows you around everywhere , and sits on the ground when you stop, even off the ship. It would need some dialogue, and maybe one or two new renders for each character, or perhaps miniature renders in key areas of the ship. Dialogue between characters, like the ones where Nimhe sneers at the 'pets' is really good, and more of it would be great.
