VN Ren'Py SpaceCorps XXX [S2 v2.7.1] [RanliLabz]

[DownTheDrain]

It's actually rather worse than that - my original project for the start of Phase 2 was September... 2019 I have a tendency to bite off more than I can chew. For clarity, though, MC now merely has to get back to the cadets and go to bed to complete Phase 1...
PS: also worth noting that in the last 6-7 months f/m players have: rescued Anna from the Clutches of Sarge after a lot of lesbian flashbacks and a femdom sex-scene, got a feline-alien preggers while in jail, had several bouts of sex with a Nazi, and telepathically spied on their sister's fantasy about blowing after she got them hard in a public corridor. I mean... it ain't nothing

It's your game and your decision how to structure and develop it. As long as your patrons are happy you're doing your job.

As for the scenes you mentioned, no offense but for a period of more than 6 months(!) that doesn't sound like an awful lot of content. I'm sure SpaceCorps will be an interesting and exceptionally varied experience once it gets closer to completion, but at this rate I doubt we'll see much of that before... I don't know... mid 2022 maybe?

Keep up the good work Ranli.

Guess it is time to make a new playthrough from the start now.

Huge thanks, The66! You're a superstar!

Thanks for the UPDATE!

You're welcome

Oh New update! Time to get off BADICK and start another playthrough of my favorite game! (Pls, dont forget the demons )
I'm sure it's good job as always!

Hehe - check out the first demon scene (the one in the corridor) - the remaster has improved it massively!

Hey, can you give me a link to the games you're playing? Because all the ones I find deliver a lot less than than 4 sex scenes in 6 months.

Now, I haven't played it yet, but you are talking about his penis, aren't you?

From his previous post it seems he doesn't like that the developer decided to make good on the promise to add mm content, which the game was lacking, and remastering old scenes. Hence why the passive aggressiveness.

 

[DownTheDrain]

Hey, can you give me a link to the games you're playing? Because all the ones I find deliver a lot less than than 4 sex scenes in 6 months.

There's a number I'm playing every now and then.
Titles that I regularly come back to include Cure My Addiction and Love&Sex: SB, both of which probably delivered a lot more during the last 6 months. Also Corrupted Kingdoms, which updates every few weeks so there's almost always something new to do. Other favorites are The Last Sovereign, with its insane amount of content that can't be measured in sex scenes cause that's not what the game is about and Free Cities with pregmod, which kinda breaks the site rules so I won't get into all the things it offers. Plus a bunch of Japanese eroges, but those are released as finished products and hard to compare to patreon games in development.

I'm aware you probably didn't expect a serious reply and I fully expect a few more facepalm emojis from people that are outraged that I dared to criticize one of their favorite projects but you asked so I figured I'd answer.
For the record, SpaceCorps does seem like a very interesting title. If I didn't care for the setting and story I'd simply ignore the thread instead of bitching about the direction the development has taken. I'll bow out now and take my "passive aggressiveness" elsewhere so I won't interrupt the circlejerk any further.

This game is amazing

 

[RanliLabz]

Massive thanks to itshowyoumetme for an amazing 5* rating! Really appreciate your very kind words (especially since you could have stopped at "This is an odd game..."

Cheers, Suddenreal! No - I didn't adjust his penis (for reasons of balance 5 points to whoever gets that sci-fi comedy reference )

Hey DownTheDrain - everyone's welcome on this thread, even if they do get a few facepalms now and again (I know I do... and I know that I get just as irritated ) I appreciate that you care for the setting and story

You've named some super devs and games... but it is important to compare like to like. e.g. Love&Sex has at least 17 people on the dev team (whereas I'm solo); Corrupted Kingdoms and Cure My Addiction have repeatable events (mine is all unique) and The Last Sovereign is text-based (mine is very visual and usually has 300-400 cgi renders per update). Compared to other cgi renpy games with multiple paths, mine is huge (bigger than Milfy City, for instance - and with more unique gameplay).

This game is amazing

Thanks Dom!

I never claimed it was a fair comparison and it wasn't meant as an attack on you or any other developer.
The guy I replied to basically called me out to link games that provide more bang for the buck so I listed a few off the top of my head.

Calling The Last Sovereign text-based is a bit misleading, it's an RPGM game after all. The sex scenes are mostly text only but nobody in their right mind would play that kind of storytelling masterpiece just to get their dick hard. Milfy City is smooth and visually stunning when it comes to the naughty parts but not much else. Just like nobody plays TLS for the sex, nobody would ever expect a game with that name to be particularly multifaceted or original.

As for repeatable events... yeah... yours are all unique because you haven't gotten to the bloody sandbox part yet.

On a more serious note, I don't doubt your dedication and, as I said before, the direction of development is entirely your choice and my opinion about it is mostly irrelevant.
I don't mind the facepalms either and I'm certain I'll get a few more the next time I comment on one of your updates.
Best of luck with your project.

The truth is that I never expect how good and how much the gay content is! It feels like a part of the game and not just some random sissyfication here and there to put the "gay" tag to the game, it's also pretty well written, so I'm really looking forward to the development of this game

 

[Almighty]

The only thing worth reworking is probably real animation for the nurse sex scene and the inspector. Them the best scenes in the game so far.

 

[SuddenReal]

Well, I just wanted to point out that most games just lack on updates and only provide one, maybe two sexscenes in one update, every six months. Maybe I should have worded it better to make it more clear (I do have a tendency not to reference the thing I'm satirizing because I'm under the impression that it was obvious).

But I must say, the games you listed (other than Corrupted Kingdoms, which I will check out) are all older than SpaceCorps and have progressed storywise into the realm of sexy times, and all have, with one exception, a 4+ star rating. So I take it as a win that you pit SpaceCorps against A-listers?

Take it as whatever you like, this isn't really a competition.
The links I provided are all for games I actually play that offered lots of content in the last 6 months. I didn't account for start of development, size of the team or rating on F95 because none of these criteria were part of your question.
Most games being older would rather be a point against your argument though, because the majority of patreon projects slow down the longer they are in development for a variety of reasons.

If you like the direction SpaceCorps is taking then good for you, I'm not trying to talk you out of enjoying the experience.

 

[lemonfreak]

* disgusting

 

[Cernunnos.]

Just played from the start and there was absolutely nothing new along the route I took. The only possible deviation was a scene in the corridor that I passed through and got a notification about a missed opportunity with a fox dude...so nothing lost.

I can only assume the new content added in is of the M/M or M/T variety? Disappointing but now that the remastering is done I look forward to the story continuing.

You're right. I'm starting to think I'm more justifying my comment than making it clear that compared to other games it still provides adequate content. So, let's just drop the subject. You do you, me do me, let's all enjoy the stuff we enjoy.

 

[Fenric Andrias]

Thanks Dom!

Ranli a Sub confirmed!

 

[CHAD-MAN]

It's already been discussed before, but (especially in this market) first impressions are everything. The quality of renders is the first thing people see, and is praised more than the story in some cases. So, updating earlier art to come up to par with later work is a better idea than add "trust me, the art gets better two hours in, no really, I swear" as a tagline.

To be honest, I really dont care because there's way too much stuff on this site for me to replay all over again to see a couple CGs remastered (not even new), if I am reallyyy curious I would just unren that shit. Other than that, updates are already long enough without progressing much, let alone remaster old shit for new comers. And I would argue that the art direction would be enough to captive people, after all, we're here aint we? We didnt need such a huge freaking deal with early CGs to stick around. Dont get me wrong, I do understand there's a point and as an artist myself, there's a chance I would the same thing BUT, it would be once the game was done and done and I could focus on remastering stuff I think its subpar. My bet goes the dev has no clue where to go with the story and needed the time to think. And this is the porn market, man... fetishes is what sells and you know that.

 

[RanliLabz]

Big thanks to Firestorm253 for a great 5* rating! Much appreciated - and hope you do come aboard the good ship patreon! As far as the excess of cocks go, that's unlikely to change... but they are going to be getting their uniforms soon (possibly in the next update, but more likely in the final Phase 1 update after that).

Thanks, xtasis! Yeah - any kink or orientation has to be properly planned in from the start and sprinkled through to feel like part of the plot rather than a (cynical) bolt-on. I find it odd when a trap is suddenly introduced after 5 hours of gameplay - with no prior indication that the MC might be into that Even odder when an MC suddenly develops a taste for subby crossdressing that is never mentioned in any other scene of the game like it didn't happen! If devs want to do that, make it a fantasy or something... or at least have the character solemnly intone 'we shall never speak of this again.'

The only thing worth reworking is probably real animation for the nurse sex scene and the inspector. Them the best scenes in the game so far.

Cheers Almighty - I was a bit surprised that people don't really mention the accidental sex scene with Fiora... I though it was good (and it was MC's cherry pop on the f/m route... whether he accepts it or not! ). I won't be reworking that - but you'll be seeing more during training for Medicorps, alongside a few more animations

That will be many (current) players approach - but we all know that everything is a balancing act between getting new people in and rewarding loyalty. Rework was required for art reasons - but also to fix some of the stats for the next Phase (which is a more complex coding situation).

PS: you lost that bet... I know exactly where all the storylines are going, and have detailed outlines of the next 7 updates. I did need to buy some time to code, though
