Ren'Py The Awakening [v0.4.6d] [SLim Games]

[yanh]

Could you help me figure out why you got trapped in the loop? I'm not sure how you managed it.

and wow, lots of complaints about the update, jeez.

You dont need to explain yourself game is nice

That loop happened out of nowhere while continuing the story, couple came to have drink, she explained it, I made few drinks and soon realized its loop.

Not everyone likes minigames (I guess almost all hates it, but if its short and quick, its nice change for few seconds).
Adding overlay button <SKIP> to every minigame (like in some adventure puzzle games), should solve everything and player can choose if he wants to play it or continue story rightaway

When 0.3.2b came out it never got leaked on f95 for some reason but it was those bug fixes I mentioned above.

Damn pirate, why can't they do the job properly?

I might be slower than other devs out there but to be completely honest with you all, I love my game as much as you do, that’s why I put my heart and soul into it trying to add even small things. This update I’ve added 2 different mini-games, I offered 2 different outfits for the player to choose from. This and the little niche features such as the x-ray and small animations that aren’t just related to sex are things that I’m experimenting with to provide something fun, immersive, and unique for you all. I read all my feedback and even hold community polls to get a better idea of what everyone would like to see, prioritizing that which is highly voted while I also manage the other things to drive the plot forward.

I understand and I like the little things you add but it make the main game/story progress very slowly. It's feel like you revamp the game again and again.

Help!!!Saves from previous version arent working

yeah I feel you.. and working on Juliet was not so fun either.. but I'll try to push more content in the next update. I just wanted to finish Juliet and move on.
We have pretty much written out all the cool story lines and just need to start rendering on it :]
And I also hate it that the old saves are not working, but I just had to do it, for the last time hopefully.

Yep it's not working. You have to start a new game and choose quick start to resume the progress or just play from the beginning.

Not everyone likes minigames

We understand that. The minigames currently in the game doesn't take too long, and are extremely easy to complete.

Anyway, since SLim decided to post allow me to elaborate a little further as well.

I've been working for SLim for about 3 months now helping write and edit. While working with him the amount of time things take are actually quite a bit more than I had originally thought to be true. Even for the Pier for example that was added was an asset that had to be modified and purchased. Going through the catalog while writing the scene overview finding the right props and putting it all together takes time. Not to get too deep into a long tangent or anything but often times the end product that people end up seeing is a fraction of what was actually put into the game.

The original script for the Juliet date was going to be at a carnival with different booths and banter throughout, this scope proved to be too cumbersome and we had to adapt to make it more manageable and release faster. The other characters that people want to see are not forgotten in the slightest. I constantly write up prototypes that we select from and build upon. Us working together has increased the speed at which we can develop and everyone should notice a much faster turnaround henceforth.

The only thing I will say is it is a bit disheartening hearing that people drop the project just because of a patch that we literally cannot have anything to do with or the game will no longer exist, or that they will no longer follow the project simply because we didn't focus on who they wanted this time. We will for sure get to everyone in time.

This update is only the beginning for the things we'd like to create. We're open to feedback and I even personally welcome such discussions. If you have a problem with something or have a suggestion don't hesitate to ask here or the discord. Like SLim said, just give us some time. We're not trying to work slowly or offer little content we're just trying to give unique and higher quality content and that does just take time to work the kinks out.

I kind of liked Juliet. Please don't finish her off altogether. Maybe a quickie whenever the MC visits the hospital?

Btw. I too got a weird bug where the loading screen got stuck and the starting music looped endlessly, but the start menu (start, load, etc.) never showed. Exited and restarted several times without success. I had selected auto for the graphics option at initial launch. Finally deleted the entire folder, deleted my saves, and extracted the game again, and this time left everything at default settings.

hmm, ok I have no idea how you managed to do that ^-^. but in general try to have the game extracted in a fresh folder so it won't load old script files by mistake.
but other than that.. I don't understand why it's not loading the main menu

I got that bug a time or two. I thought the game is freeze so I quit and start again. And it's gone.

Thanks for this. Helped me progress with Alice.
Btw. Small typo, Alex. I was going "Who the fuck is Alex?" (obscure reference to an old song "Who the fuck is Alice?" )

You're most welcome! I'm glad it was helpful.
Thanks for the notifying about the typo, I fixed it. However, I'll reupload when another update drops or I find a major mistake in the guide.

Edit: Guide re-uploaded as I've added a splash of color to the Tips/Mini-Games to differentiate them from the Notes & Requirements, to make them more appealing to the eyes.. Enjoy!

At initial launch, you are presented with graphics options auto select, directx, openGL, software with directx preselected in my case. I chose auto select, and got the bug mentioned above. This selection probably got saved in an ini file somewhere, and resulted in a persistent buggy condition where the menu never showed. This selection screen is only shown once.

What are the 2 new story paths in 0.3.3?

 

[0x52]

I've updated the cheatmod, it will now detect when you load a save from before game v0.3.3 and offer to convert it.
Using the conversion is not recommended, you should start a new game!

If you do choose to convert your save and run into any issues do not complain in this thread. Try a new game first!

oh those are just pictures, they don't select anything for you. I have not coded anything that would change your renderer in renpy.
By default it's selected to auto, but in my experiece directx gave the best performance overall.

 

[Mondoblasto]

SLim_Games Naotix OH HEY, just remembered a minor bug. If you choose Juliet's purple top/black skirt, when getting the sandwiches the white dress version is used, then continues with the purple/black outfit.

Nice to see SLim back in active in the thread. I have been running 0.3.3 today. Would like to share my point on the above.
I will still keep positive to the game going but with some concern here

1. the UI change is no doing well. Buttom is too big. It actual cover quarter of screen. The font size is overtoned as well. Testing new feathure is great, but the UI may better back to something less bulky.
2.1. Girls paths are tangled, in a adverse way. As Juliet come into the party in 0.3.3, you now cannot trigger Margaret before going out with her first; even though they have no connection.
2.2. further to the above. Player are forced to progress with no chioce of relationship. The main storyline is the Fairy power, but we can only progress that by a) the club girl; b) Juliet. If I want to stuck to Sis/Linda, MC cannot progress in the story. New locaton like gym will not be unlocked. This may be a game with plots, but talking abut adult relationship in an adult game, it is much important to untie them somehow.
3. Voiceover seem lacking to the updates by sometime. 0.3.2 content have no implented yet. The writing is using normal chatting script, so it is very off without voiceover. People may skip and wait cause the inconsistent feeling.

Developer have high standard; and well represented in the outcome. Iterate though new feature or rerender for improvement, however seem like a bit lose focusing in a regular development. Maybe Dev. can consier rearrage the circle like,
STORY-STORY-RERAMP-STORY-STORY-NEWFEATURE(with added scene to make up as a update)-STORY
0.4.0 - 0.5.0 - 0.5.R - 0.6.0 - 0.7.0 - 0.7.F - 0.8.0
with a clear indiction for supporter, therefore rectified their ecpection.

Thz 4 the time any1 reading this.

If I want to stuck to Sis/Linda, MC cannot progress in the story. New locaton like gym will not be unlocked.

They can only make so many new story progressions at once, and in this build, they made an entirely new location (doll house could also kinda count as one too), with new NPCs, and intro'ed at least two new characters. The next one, assuming they don't use the 'RenPy gym', will have to have another new location made.

 

[amitpandaquick]

can someone give me their previous version saves please

 

[deltami]

The next one, assuming they don't use the 'RenPy gym'.

to ease the confusion, i am not saying the gym is WIP. i mean that main game objective "love power" or accessiability to content shall be seperated from the relation MC taking. I just hope there will not be forced girl in the main questline.
