Ren'Py The Bite: Revenant [v0.9313] [madmate.games]

[Lurcher1]

Not much to tell on the Jan 14th update. He's tweaking the glossary and interface but it'll result in broken saves for the next release.

it's not a joke that dev knows, it's fact.

anyways any of this game's patrons might not hang out here.

Your are making a joke out of that fact by pointing it out that's all man

Forget about it

I think you're missing the point: It's not "cultural rules", he literally has a suspended death sentence on his head. It's not something you forget in spur of the moment. If he still thinks like a human, it should be first thing on his mind when he wakes up, and last thing he thinks about before going to bed.
If you lived in nazi germany and had gestapo watching you, would you "oh forgot about it, because I have an asshole I need to teach a lesson"? Rather unlikely, don't you think? Because that's basically the depth of shit the MC is in if he fucks up.

I want to reply to this point because I think it highlights the issue of multiple choice in a story driven game quite well. While I will grant you that the decision to go follow your ex-coworkers is very stupid, it is not actually a decision made by the MC, or rather not solely by MC. MC following your line of reasoning just would not follow them at all, if they are worried about accidentally exposing themselves.

I feel like short of maybe lacking a choice to not go in, the game handled everything pretty well, you can choose to not kill the guy, you can avoid telling the truth to Julie, you don't *have* to outright go the most hammy porny route, and it's a bit hypocritical to accuse the game of being "implausible" simultaneously trying to go out of your way to be as cheesy as possible. I mean you get to use your powers in the same scene *multiple* times. You can't really complain about not using your powers when you do in the same scene. Like what next, we're not cool if we have to dress ourselves instead of being dressed by 10 ghouls? Let's keep that in Rebirth please.

Edit: I have a different kind of problem with that scene is that there's a narrative reason not to take it, but content-wise there's no reason not to. What I mean is there are no bad consequences (for now) to going in there and doing the non-masquerade-violation route, you get a whole bunch of story content vs just a time skip. There should be either a set of consequences later no matter what route you took in the scene *or* there should be alternative content set if you skip following them to equalize the amount of "gameplay" that you get in both routes. Yeah you get a different stat point, but stats are worthless for now and generally I don't think 1 point is critically important to anything.

The reason there hasn't been any posts by anyone from the Pateron page is that there hasn't been one since January 14th. Dev took the month off and paused the Pateron payment. The Pateron payment pause ends on February 14th however so if that means that's when the Dev is coming back or not, nobody knows. But that's the reason for the lack of updates here. There hasn't been any.

Same. One of my all time fav games here and my Nr.1 Vamp game. I thought he was working on it by hearing he paused is sad. I really hope its nothing serious. The last 6 months were hard for him and I thought this was in the past. Lets hope we will see a update soon enough.

Nice. Thanks for sharing the news.

Saw that he had extended the paused Pateron payment for another month, glad to hear he's still working on it.

Changing the character's name is a plot point, it will come a little later in the game.

This was posted in discord like a week ago

It's been a while since I wanted to share with you some aspects of this very interesting project by Madmate, whom I thank warmly for their participation and especially for their open-mindedness to new ideas and the desire to make this amateur gaming experience different.

First of all, let me introduce myself. I am a professional graphic designer and web designer who stumbled upon The Bite Revenant by chance and, seeing it as an interesting project, I decided to offer my help to Madmate in reviewing and supervising the graphic department, interface, and why not, some aspects of the game that everyone in this community is passionate about.

With the blessing of the Creator , some of the aspects I want to take care of include everything related to the graphic part, including the project logo, game interface, possible restyling of all the graphic elements present in the game, promotional material for the game, and any wallpapers, both for android and desktop.

Feel free to contact me about this. I would be happy to hear your opinion on the ongoing initiative. Hoping that you are passionate about the project, with the host's approval, I will use this space to update you (in a systematic and gradual way, without spoiling any surprises...) in an unfortunately irregular manner due to my availability.

I hope to be able to conclude and give you a beautiful graphic design to enhance a game like few others.

Best regards,

Human.Device
Painter of Darkness

just to reiterate what @Human.Device said - we are working on this, let's say graphic facelift together and @Human.Device will keep y'all posted and post here stuff that we're working on so people can give their judgement on the progress.
but in the end it is a quality of life upgrade, addressing stuff like making the fonts more readable for example (a common occurring issue people have been bringing up), adding logo's and promo material, stuff like that it shouldn't in any way have any influence on the story of the game, just improving visuals

well there isn't any problems with graphs.

 

[RC-1138 Boss]

I get the part about advertising the game and quality of life upgrades just hope they aren't also trying to remaster or remake old renders.
