VN Ren'Py The Memory Machine [v1.3a] [Pixieblink]

[Emma Nuelle]

Long time fan of 'A Father's Sin'.
Recognized the dance from 'Gonig to Hell'.
Love the graphics, only minor issue wash the shower scene.
Dry hair, dry skin, no flowing water??
Hope this can be fixed later on. Would make the game a lot better.
The swimming pool could use some wet hair also.

Would be great if the game had a gallery as well.

There is no transition between the intro and the start of the game, then it ends.

The game crashes for me when Cel is on the toilet peeing and looking at the dude in the shower half way through.

The game is heavily censored, considering there are superior games free uncensored, i would be surprised if this attracts enough players.

Why didn't you download the Nag-Patch?

Crash? First I've heard of it crashing on anyone's system. Ever.
Which version are you playing? PC / Linux / Mac or Android? And what kind of error are you getting?

 

[SOABUK80]

Windows 11. When you wake up and you go straight to the bathroom, it works fin until one of the morning, no errors it just shuts down. The only way to stop it on that part was to go to kitchen first. The version i have is the one of the first page i downloaded yesterday.

Bizarre.
Did you download my release or the Walkthrough mod?

No mods or anything, straight from the first post on here PIXELDRAIN, it was random, when i reopened the game it worked fine but as i say, i chose the alternative route, i cant remember how many times i had to go to the bathroom before it closed out because the ones before it were fine.

Weird. I've played through the game literally hundred times while creating it. All paths, all combinations possible of every choice possible. And you're the first to mention it. Very strange.

And renpy (the programming language used to create the game) just shuts down on you!? No error messages?

Anyone else getting this?

 

[hoborg]

Worked fine for me.

I also played every path in this game (in Linux and the Patreon version). I did not find a problem anywhere. In fact, I have NEVER had a RenPy game just shut down (I found a few that would not even start). RenPy is very smart and always tells you why there was a problem. It may be a terminal problem for the game, but not one that shuts the game down with no message. I have probably played 400+ RenPy games.

Same here. Though I haven't played 400, I have played a lot and never had renpy shut down. Pop up some weird ass error message? Sure. But not just shut down.

I wonder if it could be some out of memory thing? Or perhaps the good old much overused "it could be a virus infecting his computer". Though I doubt it. Some bizarre windows 11 thing?

There are instances of windows defender flagging renpy games, I wonder if the two could be related. Though you would think even that that WD would warn you about running before it launched.

Its not the first Renpy game that shutdown without an error though they are few and far between unlike unity that people make excuses for even when it freezes and crashes on computers like my computer with Intel Core i9-14900KS, 60gb ram, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, Samsung 990 pro 4tb nvme etc.

I cant replicate the crash so who knows what is was.

A thought:
Check if there are updated drivers available for the graphics card. ISTR reading a report two or three months ago that Nvidia had a problem w/ the 5000-series drivers not playing nice w/ Ren'Py/Python.
Might want to google that, I could mis-remember though.

Thanks WaltS, I think you just nailed it.

The 50'series are still buggy as hell, afaik they're still ironing out the gremlins and updating drivers trying to get everything to work. There's a thread in the dev forum about the new 5090's not working properly with Daz (yet).

Seeing as you can't replicate the problem & it's intermittent my guess would be chunky video drivers crapping out on you.

Nice system, btw.

You seem to be correct about the 5000 series drivers and RenPy. But this has not been reported in Linux because Linux tests EVERYTHING and realized that all drivers newer than mine had problems. My driver is a 575.64.03 for Linux series and it considered the most stable ever. Right AFTER that number, ALL the Nvidia drivers started having problems.

First batch of previews from v1.2 - release will be Sept 15, 2025 as scheduled.

 

[Pixieblink]

Just updated the OP to v1.2 (Sept. 15th release)
https://f95zone.to/threads/the-memory-machine-v1-1-pixieblink.264765/

I've tried upping my game (pun intended) with the animations, do let me know what you guys think of it.

---------------

So far in the game, making the right choices simply granted bonus lewd scenes. Now for the first time there's an actual story branch right here



Where you get to choose if the blond girl is going to be submissive or dominant.

Either path is correct, both lead to lewd scenes.

Really dumb questions for you:

I haven't seen any public version to download on Patreon and Itch.io:

- are you uploading the latest version and updating the OP here (this thread) yourself?
- should we regard the update you upload here as the "Official" public version?

Thanks for your reply and keep up the nice work you're doing.

The summary

"What if someone invented a machine that allowed you to view a person's memories?
Or even better yet, record them and turn them into video games... "

reminds me of an older movie : Inception (2010)
where "a professional thief [...] steals information by infiltrating the subconscious of his targets. He is offered a chance to have his criminal history erased as payment for the implantation of another person's idea into a target's subconscious."

- Yes. Along with the nag-patch in about a week or so.
- And yes. Actually I'm uploading the public version right now to Itch. (Or maybe not? Their server is janky as hell right now. I'll have to try it later.)

You think I should make the public version free on Patreon?

Glad you're enjoying the game and thanks for the pat on the back.

It's good to know that at least a few of the older players are appreciating it. After people like you have played billion games I would imagine most of them get... boring.
