VN Ren'Py Tales from the Unending Void [v0.20.1 Extra] [Perverteer]

[KinkierThanThou]

I get that there are folks for whom that is a thing... which is fine, but going from a fairly vanilla Sisterly Lust to that, is odd to me. As a Subscriber, I hope that there is an opton to filter that out.

Most of the more extreme fetishes were optional (or at least avoidable if you paid attention) in Sisterly Lust. Perverteer is good at making those choices clear while making them seemingly organic. The most obvious was of course Watersports, but if you paid attention and weren't so inclined, you could also avoid any Pregnancy/BDSM/Femdom/Pegging content.

Personally there isn't much content that would explicitly turn me off of a game, not even the oh so divisive subject of NTR. The only really hard lines I draw in the sand are Scat (not Urination)/Snuff/Cilantro.

Cilantro? Cilantro??
since when has coriander been a deal-breaking fetish?

It does taste like soap to some people

Have you tasted the stuff?

Have you tasted the stuff?

I love the stuff - grow it in my garden.
Don't think I've seen it mentioned in a game before.

There's a sidequest in Borderland 3 (Guns, Love & Tentacles DLC) that revolves around the Devil's Herb. I believe the quest was called The Nibblenomicon.

But that's all too off-topic. The Cilantro comment was more of a throwaway joke than anything to be taken at face value.

Back on topic, to me Futa is a genre that falls kind of in the realm of SciFi. As in, unlike Trans or Hermaphrodite, inspired by but not like The Real World. So I'm willing to extend that the same suspension of disbelief as a green-skinned alien babe with tentacles for hair.

 

[Sancho1969]

Bullshit, without Cilantro there would be no proper Pico De Gallo. It's quite on topic

 

[alfeatcat]

Great story, great character, nice renderings. Want more, want more, want more ...

The current implementation will be a choice in the story which gates the content, like in Sisterly Lust. So for example, in the next episode the MC will be confronted with a girl with a dick and he has the option to say no. That choice will close off any further such interactions, including the optional romanceable futa/trans characters.

 

[Darkaura]

Amazing...

Even the music is good. And I NEVER say that about a game.

nice start ill keep my eye on this one

 

[Nej_Aldrig]

Several issues pops up alreaady in the First Chapter. Mostly concerning the story, character actions and suspension of disbelief. Yes it's a porn game, so we can handwave these issues away, but not if we are to take the story seriously.

Biggest one - Why would they drag Thim onto the ship? It makes absolutely zero sense. He was in the corridor, they had no use for him and he had already sounded the alarm. This is the author forcing actions for the sake of plot.

I find it hard to accept that two children would be placed under the command of their mother. Also, this served no purpose whatsoever, since she fired upon them anyway.

This last one is nitpicking at it's finest and doesn't really matter, I'm only writing this because I'm so insanely bored by this quarantine.
It's not likely to end up hitting something if you jump to a random point in space. Considering that the amount of space in the universe that is compromised of any matter at all is approaching 0, the chance of not hitting it is approaching 1:1. Even in a galaxy the absolute majority of space is empty.

It's been a while, but I'm fairly sure the knock-out (is supposed to have) happened in the hangar bay, so it was a choice of abduction or murder (via imminent vacuum).

I'm not too bothered by #2, this doesn't strike me as the most "above board" force so odd placements are to be expected. And she did serve the purpose of drama and giving the kids something to work through.

Totally agree on space though, it was my first thought as well. The fear shouldn't be hitting something, it should be *not* conveniently being close enough for whatever sublight capability they have left to reach some liveable place.

There's a million ways he could have died in that scenario. He was NOT in a safe spot. They aren't murderers, just deserters and thieves.

That actually does serve a purpose, as it basically sets her up as a character that would fire upon her own children because they are deserters. Also, that whole program looks like summer camp for noble's children.

This isn't hard science fiction, this is based on your space operas of the last century. So, aliens that look suspiciously human, hand wavy relativity, and dense asteroid fields/nebula clouds/etc. The rule of cool

So she says as her first friend outside the Sovereignty was almost gang-raped by a bunch of thugs, and had to flee from the planet.

Thanks for your comments. The reasoning behind taking Thim is the implication that he overheard everything and leaving him there wouldn't have been safe as others have pointed out. I'll have a look at that part and make it a little more clear if necessary.

I agree that's stretching things, but the Terran Galactic Navy certainly isn't free of nepotism and corruption. Calista will return by the way.

Obviously didn't think that one through and I'm famously bad at maths. Changed the wording a little.

So she says as her first friend outside the Sovereignty was almost gang-raped by a bunch of thugs, and had to flee from the planet.

Right she's so forgetful. Made her comment a little more nuanced in the upcoming update.

Perverteer

Well if we are being realistic, a wrench upside the head is pretty deadly on its own.

A small change that would be nice is if you would take a look at the location images. Like when the ship goes through and the text is off to the side. Check if the text is readable. At least 1 image had the text on the ship's engine burner which makes it not legible.

Also the tags, with that VR test. A lot of tags are missing.

Game probably needs a big update in tags.

Episode 3 Location image, the title is blown out by the engine.

Alien is named Boverine and Boverin.

Celine calls mc Cam when talking about the message even if name is changed.

I'm sure you parents love you. : your

I first want to read up on Verdigris V first : (remove a first)

Hauling thing onto bastard looks weird because MC is not pointing their gun, which everyone else is doing.

True and she's holding a particularly vicious wrench at that. I might have to go all handwavey and say that Thim has a genetically enhanced thick skull in that case.

I've added outlines to all the location labels in an upcoming bugfix, that should take care of the legibility. Fixed most of the other issues you've reported as well.

I'm not the thread starter, so a moderator or someone with appropriate rights should add those I think.

 

[somebodynobody]

I think you can ask for ownership of the thread if you talk to a mod, so you can edit as you see fit.

One slight edit I would say towards the end of the last chapter. The line of the MC about meeting them again, since it didn't happen yet. Plus the game is mainly playing out in the present tense rather than narrated/past tense, it felt a bit out of place at that time. Maybe I forgot it was a past tense view.

 

[Cabin Fever]

Well, the very first shot of the game was the MC floating in space and starting to talk about how he got there, which is "the story" of the game. So past tense makes sense from that perspective. But I never paid attention if it's consistent throughout the game.
