Ren'Py The Fixer [v0.3.3.21] [Sam_Tail]

[XulOnTuesday]

Inheritance? Composition?

Object Oriented Programming joke. Inheritance defines an "is-a" relationship (a horse "is-a" animal), while composition defines a "has-a" relationship (a horse "has-a" huge dong). Generally, a class should only inherit from one thing, while it can be composed of several things.

Depending on how you look at sexuality, bi can be its own thing or a composition of straight, gay, and Sammy-sexual.

... also mission based spywork stuff should never count as prostitution i think, like the requirements should be differnt cause its for the mission also...

Can't say I fully agree or disagree with that. On one hand, even if she isn't taking money from the client (or if she is as part of her cover), she's being paid for it by the institute. So being paid for having sex. It's why having agents working as honeypots is officially frowned upon by most nations. On the other hand, doesn't have the same feel to it as flat out whoring, so I can see it not counting too. Plus, it's not like the stat will need padding if the player takes a whore route.

Probably best to leave it as the dev's call, based on how corrupting they want to portray institute work as.

Amusingly, after writing this, I have a stronger opinion. I'd say count it. It isn't going to matter for sluttier characters, and it will add to the corruption feel if the player's running a more reluctant character. The purity types will just need to admit that having sex as part of her job is her having sex with the ultimate goal of getting paid (I'm fairly sure there's no required sex on for institute missions, it's an easier option or a backup if players didn't bother to work on skills)

well i downloaded and to be brutal honest this gane is pure trash evenn the so called game guide is a joke welcome to the trash bin along with the sketchy .yaml and python based system it runs some of the stuff inside the game is definetly wierd and amatuer written

Technically, I think all of the games posted on F95 are made by amateurs...maybe less than 0.1% aren't? I don't know, making NSFW games isn't exactly the most lucrative career of all time and typically only single person developer teams can be realistically supported to do so full time (and usually not even that). Which not only leads to a developer spreading themselves very thinly as they try to make content for their games, it also means they have to know how to accomplish themselves everything that the game requires, be it conceptual planning, game design, coding, art, sound, UI, characters and writing... It's a lot of different disciplines that you have to be able to do at least competently, and it naturally leads to most NSFW games being less than perfect in every area due to the individual strengths and weaknesses of the developer making them. Like yes, I'd like to go over the whole game with a fine-toothed comb to fix textual issues (mostly just simple errors rather than any kind of greater issue like the writing at its core not being good enough*), but one, I'm not then also responsible for doing literally everything else, and two, even though I wouldn't be responsible for doing everything else, it would still take a significant investment of time and energy just to do that. I actually thought about making a mod to fix at least what I feel are the most glaring stylistic issues that bug me the most, but RenPy games seem annoying to mod (and to perform upkeep on a mod).

*At least personally, I've tried many other games and I would say that the writing style of this game appeals to me much more than the vast majority of others that I've tried... Yes, there are some issues I'd like to see worked out someday, but for me, it's like watching a less than perfect video quality version of a movie that you like (or even worse, if it were from something actually awful like a VHS recording) versus watching a pristine 8K copy of a movie that you dislike, you know? Yeah, the VHS might not look or sound great, but the movie itself is still something you fundamentally like at its core, and that matters more than anything else.

Honestly, even the professionally made ones are often janky or uninspired. Look at Ilussion; they keep making the same game over and over while swapping between realistic and anime styles. and those that do try more often end up biting of more than they can chew and end up abandoned or in development hell. The best-payed Adult dev out there is probably turbodriver with 19 thousand paying patreons. And all he does is a Sims 4 Mod allowing him to focus on just that aspect. with the exception of a couple of icons, he doesn't have to bother with anything on the art side, which is usually the most time-consuming aspect.
Like how Sam first does the posing in Koikatsu and then repaints it again by hand. this game has around 9000 Images. 1600 of those images are just Sammy and her customisation options. All done by hand. I don't think people realise how much effort goes into this compared to all those "games" that are just DazStudio render slideshows. That takes up ridiculous amounts of space while this game is just a couple hundred megabytes.

If there are volunteers who are willing to play test the dev build and report all the bugs they find would that help him release bug free or at least minimum bugs updates faster ? or he already has people doing that ? because from what i noticed the pace at which he adds new content is fast considering the frequency of the updates we get, the part that takes him too long to do is fixing the bugs hence the rarity of stable builds.
I'm just speculating here, maybe someone can clear things up a bit

 

[Sam_Tail]

Stability has been worse recently because I did a fair few changes to the wardrobe. Things like detecting if nipples/genitals are seen through fabric, secondary outfits, exhibitionism stuff based on clothes. All this while trying to add new content and fixing up older issues. Will be ironed out eventually.

Hi,
with the latest Update on Hucow, will we also see a Hucow farm or something like that were Sammy can work there for a certain amount of time and gets milked and probably also bred by costumers, similiar to the bar events?
Would make sense if you add it in.

 

[Azeric]

I did it

WAIT!.... is that a pregnancy perk at the end even though you're a VIRGIN! Or does it work as a cumflation perk

 

[kurosx]

is that a pregnancy perk at the end even though you're a VIRGIN!

It's the holy virgin Mary Bangtail!

 

[BlowJohn]

It's not a pregnancy. This was chance-up for being pregnant

Not sure if this is a known issue or not, but after successfully completing the Find Mira quest (saved her), I was told that I failed to find her and that she's probably dead. I also notice 2 entries for the quest in the tracker. I haven't seen Mira yet, either... Should she reappear once the quest is complete?

 

[Cake3Purple6Cheese948]

I'm curious, why were Emile's clothes changed?

 

[souldead341]

I'm curious, why were Emile's clothes changed?

She has a few outfits that she starts the game in, and my checks with the most recent game it was all the same variants as I remember them being. AFAIK it's just a random chance which outfit she has.

 

[jkrowlingh;ih]

Are all the characters 18+?

 

[ChesseKun]

Are all the characters 18+?

yes.

 

[ireallywantdieplease]

not sure if you are already aware of this sam but in areas where you are supposed to be naked like the pipe room in haven or the pit all you can do is search for clothes before you can actually do anything else.

unless this was intended as a way to escape the pit since you can just search for clothes then it puts you in a back alley scene where you can just walk to the bus stop.

I wish we were able to customize the outfits of our roommate, friends and possibly the dance group if we have a certain level of intimacy or they are corrupted to a certain level
