VN Ren'Py The Libido Enigma [Ch.7] [broiler_x]

[Tiny@1]

Part II will likely have some changes. The biggest one being that it will convert to harem-only, and the monogamous routes will cease to exist.

Are you going to tweak the paths in the ending of Part 1 or "fix" the paths in the beginning of Part 2?

This is a recent decision, and I haven't worked out the details. The way chapter 8 is currently written is it will end with the current paths. Then I would make some changes in Part II. But, I might make some changes to the end of Chapter 8 to assist in ending the different paths. But nothing is certain yet. I know, not much of an answer...

And for the people asking about Heather, don't worry, you will be happy with her role.

Yeah, changing earlier can make old saves not work, and that's a bad thing.

Chapter 8 will be the final chapter... of Part I

Originally when I started The Libido Enigma I had written an outline for a five-chapter visual novel. It was important to me to actually finish this project. I released Chapter 1 on February 28, 2024, and I told myself that I wanted to finish the entire VN in under one year's time. But I kept adding more and more content that wasn't in that original outline. So now here I am working on Chapter 8. I'm still within that one-year goal, but that anniversary is approaching. One reason to have a finished VN is to be able to release a finished product on Steam, which I currently have scheduled for March 10, 2025.

As of a couple of weeks ago, my plan was to conclude everything in Chapter 8 and be done with it and move on. But I just can't let it go. I have grown so attached to these characters that they are almost like family to me. The thought of them just leaving my life was causing me grief. So, I've made a change in plans. Chapter 8 will be the conclusion of Part I of The Libido Enigma. The current plot arc with the experimental drug will conclude, and I will be releasing it as a complete game on Steam as planned. But I've decided that I want to continue with this same cast of characters (and likely add more) and just continue their journey with a new biotech storyline. Part II will likely have some changes. The biggest one being that it will convert to harem-only, and the monogamous routes will cease to exist. It's just too difficult to do five different routes. That worked when the game had an end soon, but for a continuation that would just be way too much work for me and cause the updates to take much longer. If you are on a monogamous path, don't worry you won't have to do anything differently or go back and play with the harem route. I've got some plot ideas to convert the monogamous routes to harem. I know some people will be upset with this, but I just have to do it this way for my sanity.

Well, I'm glad you decided, but for me, it's the end of the line after this one is done. I just hope that the solos people have chosen will have an actual ending.

So the plan is for the very end of the VN it will go back to you making a choice, including Harem or solo. Similar to what I did for the previous 2 chapters. I'm just pushing that back. I haven't finalized anything, I just know that I want to continue this and not end it yet...

 

[Anteron]

What if you already chose harem. Also, if the twins it's technically not solo, LOL.

 

[broiler_x]

Vote in the poll up top if you can. I'm making some plot decisions and I'm trying to gather some data. Thanks!

Emily, but I have saves for all. With Emily and Brooke, I didn't fuck Heather, but did with the rest (not a big deal for Harem, twins didn't seem like they'd care and boss lady encouraged it.)

 

[Raynare69]

Brooke, but I'd choose Heather if I could XD

If broiler_x want to save time to finish this game properly, focus on only harem path might be the best solution under your condition. Have more time to focus to whatever you are doing and make most players happy with the harem ending. Look like a win win solution to me.
