Finshed .18, best thing about this update was the art rework for Jenny and Debbie, they look amazing. Jenny's story rework was really good but lack content and she didn't develop as a character, she's still sort of a bitch unlike how Roxxy developed well from a bitch. Hopefully .18.5 makes it worthwhile because this update was just not completely satisfying.
That Jenny would stay the same was intended though. DC said several times that he didn't just want to repeat Roxxy's story. One may not agree with that but I wouldn't put any hope in that changing.

I can't understand how many times something can be said and people still aren't wrapping their heads around it.

Jenny had to be remade because the code was old and shit and a road block that means he's unable to move forwards with the game unless he redid it.

This means that there were two scenarios

1. Remake Jenny and continue with the game

2. Not remake Jenny and being unable to continue with the game.
What does the code have to do with the art? He could've just had his coders fix it up while he continued to work on something else.

The usual controversy aside, I'm a bit gutted that my two favourite scenes now have been removed from the game (Auntie reverse cowgirl and MC breaking free from the cuffs)
Noo I loved the MC breaking free form the cuffs and giving it too his sister that just made that part of the game for me.

The art remake is required for the rig-system which again is required to keep the size of the game small. That on the other hand is really important to keep it workable on andriod going forward. DC mentioned that the number of mobile players has risen dramatically during the last year, so I guess it's not the worst decision. Next to that the very old art was really bad compared to what we've got now anyway.

Why all the bitching about DC updating the artwork while they redo the code, it is DC's game after all he can do what he likes even including shutting it down if he choose too.

What are you talking about? If you want to make the images smaller then change their resolution or archive them. You don't need to repaint everything.

I personally have no problem with that, I think my problem was how, while there are other girls that have no quest lines or story to go with, we're getting more story from characters that already have fairly well developed stories and didn't really need anything added on at this time. I mean hell, I'm still waiting after 2 years for Ronda content, but haven't gotten any.

The rig-system isn't about image quality but about posing and the fact that the game needs way less images overall because of it. Before every single sprite/pose was a full image, after the redraw they are usable cutouts which can be combined at will. That's what saves space. Next to that the game is basically already optimized as much as possible so they can't make things smaller without losing quality (if you can, you should really talk to DC, he'd certainly pay you for it).

I don't think you know as much about game development as you think you do. The reasons for doing what he does in the order he does it are valid. You don't need to understand why.

I'm not gonna trust a guy that can't even use Ren`py and breaks his own game literally every update that he has the right idea. Lol!

Alright, and I still don't understand why he does it. Why is reducing the game's size by 10% suddenly such a huge issue for him?

Can any of DC's crusaders help me understand hat the point of the babies is? They seem to pump them out like tennis balls and then just weirdly dissapear. Does this dude have a black market organ farm or some shit?

I'd say over time it's way over 10%. Right now every single pose is one full image, even if only a tiny item in the hands or one facial expression changed. By being able to use those assets seperatly and to combine them at will they should be able to reduce the space which is needed by quite a margin. Next to that I'd agree that DC wanted to finally bring the game up to his own standard. If one art, some of the old stuff was pretty bad (Roxxy, Debbie, etc.). I mean, he certainly could have saved time by trying to cut the old art to fit the new rig but that would have been a bad compromise in my opinion.

It's not just Ren'py. It's a highly customized/modified version of Ren'py. That means that you can't just treat it like a standard Ren'py game. Added to that, DC is not a coder. At least, not a really good one. He had two coders but lost one recently, so one guy is working on that part of the engine, trying to fix old content so that new content works with it.

As for size, there are various reasons. As stated, Android users, for one. It's not as though phones and tablets have huge storage space. Sure, you can add an SD card but not everyone has one or they're already using one that's almost full. Couple that with the actual download, the smaller the size, the less data required to download. Less data being used over metered connections. I'm happy that the game is less than a gig, currently. Most Ren'py games here are so bloated that you're downloading over a gig for not a whole lot of content. Thankfully, we get people who crunch those down into manageable sizes.

New incest patch has added on Lewdpatcher
Hi guys! Haven't played this game for a long time due to removal of incest.
Just want to make sure if the incest patch now fully works on all relatives? Will it also fix relationship for the Bestfriend and his mom?
Will appreciate the feedback!
Miss the jenny and aunt update!

One more thing, has there been already an update on mom quest route?

What do you mean modified?

Most of those art changes just means removing the pointless lines he added to their faces and fixing their eyebrows.
And no, I don't think it's way over 10% because the images are still not properly compressed even now.
