Ren'Py Straitened Times [v0.50.0] [HRelease]

[yunmaster]

I'm really looking forward to the completion of this game.
It's good that the mother characters don't look too young.
And it's nice to have a lot of mothers.
Mom, StepMom, NeighMom.
Of course, I don't like all the stories, but it's still good.

what do I do with mia I cant get passed the flirting at the strip bar pls help

Keep hang out (flirt), eventually she will do strip, repeat that until you can do private dance.... etc.

 

[Benn Swagger]

Not this. He makes great female characters, introduces them one at a time, and doesn't blueball main characters. You can already fuck about 10 of them including the 3 most important.

You're not wrong, but that's not what I'm discussing, never say the game is bad.
Here ... let me repeat what I'm criticize in big & bold letter.

I'm done following this per each update.
I'm switching to 1-year-following-mode.

Meaning I'm only revisit this per 1 year interval, because following per update is unworthy as each characters only get very slight progression. I'm not as used to be, that following per update is a must to do, like my life depend on it. Now I prefer following a game per 6 or 12 month update. I prefer enjoy long content update. Also, there's tons other games to explore in 2021, porn or normal games. Waiting for half or one year is nothing.

Some exception for the like of NLT Media & Nenad Asanovic's games. They are full time developer and only release update with satisfying content.

are there new sex scenes aside from that detective girl? Cool game! A bit grindy but lots of re-playability.

"analytics"
You may like other developers more. That is one thing.
But have the decency and don't talk about how much time I spend on the game. Cause it's a lot more than a full-time work week.

 

[H2R]

Here is my WT for 0.21.1

WT was made using my save from version to version

How it was made, i started a new game, gave myself money, and it's a step by step on every action i did, if you don't use a money cheat, use it as a reference

StraitenedTimes 0.21.1 WT.zip - the wt

saves.zip, it has 0.19.2 save, 0.20.0 save and 0.21.1 save

Interests part 1-4 - images of all npc's with the right topics for discuss interests, part 4 has Brigitte and Lauren

[13mpty]

[Joshua Tree]

If you're give your best, then you might need to change content update strategy. Like from developing 10 characters per update but short and not quite meaningful, to limit just 3~5 characters but impactful to their progression. Your consumers are simple man, they want to fap to new content. When you can satisfy their need, over & over again, then they might checking their wallet to support the game, or the very least, promoting/recommending your games to others. You need to keep their dopamine in check.

All games of this nature suffer when there is lots of character involved. But playing through work in progress, and end up play through the completed game once done is two quite different experiences. If you impatient for content, then just shelve it until its completed and play it then. Let the creator do their thing.

 

[Mr. Hero]

anything new with mcs mom?

Yea, I'm just worry why a good game like this can't pass 500~1000 patreon yet. Taking from another experience, it was a sad day when Zee95 shelved The Way project as it didn't attracting people, let alone potential patreon.

 

[TOWANA]

I can't eavesdrop Alexa at 14:00
everytime I have chance to have an option at there, it will always be peeping
But I already have her relation to 100 and sexual appearance 23
And for Mary, I unlocked the flirting nuded
Is it a bug or really just a rng thing?

Having 3 differnet paths and people had to wait ages before "their" path did get content was his biggest mistake for a first game though, especially if you try deppend on income from making these games. In the gaming industry else, you see smaller studios, indie devs etc make smaller games to try build up some renown and war chest (attract investors), before they start on bigger projects.

Having many characters, multiple paths etc can be a good thing for the creator as they doesn't necessary get bunt out on just focus on one storyline but can break it up with diversity. Need to find the ballance between keep your supporters happy and yourself too though.

 

[OldmanRed]

Did the incest patch still work?

 

[JackMiejov]

Well if you did read my post above I said I didn't know if it was new of latest version...

Well, if you did read my post before yours, I said I was looking for a reason for Kate to invite Lisa to her room, which is new to v0.22 but doesn't appear to work for "helping Mia" because of the times where the two events can take place. Having it work for Violet is at least valid, if not very useful, but I don't see how it can work with Mia at all. If it actually works, please share the sequence of actions/times/events.

 

[hugo_123]

help i have problem with stepmother (Anna) i have her friendship max and her allure is 82 i made all of her events and there is note saying raise her allure to see new events how and for jill is same
