Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.7b] [Ron Chon]

[giantboss]

I love this game, rogue like was one of the first nsfw games i played years ago and sometimes i always go back when i see a new version is up, just to see the little changes oni made, but that game was lacking some story or world building after all this years the game feels empty,all the contrary this game shows very well, the girls are amazing, the devs know their stuff ***SPOILERS***in the battle against the juggernaut i remember watching it when i was a kid that his power was not from being a mutant but instead thanks to magic or something else and i knew my powers doesn't work on him but i tried to help anyway ***SPOILERS*** 10/10

But i think i found a bug or maybe is not implemented yet but laura asked me for a date we go and everything was good but then when i ask her for another date she tells me that we will go in the evening but then she never shows up and i can't complete the mission, Does this happen to anyone else?

[UnsavouryPursuits]

I started reading every mainline X-Men comic back in February (before I even heard of this project, oddly enough, let alone got involved with it - presumably The Stars Were Right) starting from the very beginning to the current day and there's lengthy periods where you can see the writers desperately searching for something to hang a story on and it's all just so boring!

You mean you started with the 60s and went all the way through everything up until the current Krakoa stuff in les than a year?? Christ, that's commitment. In my readthrough, I'm still only just around Fall of the Mutants, and I had to put my X-Men on hold just because I was so X-Men'd out. Then again, I am also trying to juggle reading a whole bunch of different comics all at once, so that doesn't exactly help with finishing one run over another.

We've got a couple of writers right now, including myself and so far, we've mostly collaborated on story ideas, before going off to do them individually. Once we've got something done, we submit for review and give/get feedback: anything that feels off, anything that doesn't land right, etc., you know the drill. If everything is good, we send it off to be added and move on to the next thing on the list. As for clashing styles, no one's pointed out anything glaring or anything that even feels obviously different, so I'm taking that to be a good sign that we're, at the very least, complimentary, and on any kind of project like this, that's an excellent sign.

Neat to know how you guys are working here, must be easier to collaborate when it's just two writers. And yeah, the writing is definitely working well so far, so you're both doing a good job.

Despite being English, I completely understand about you feeling a duty to root for Rahne. Maybe you could go for Moira, too, even if she's not a mutant. As for Magik, while I'm surprised by the fact that someone actually played Midnight Suns, any version of her would be pretty good. She's always been a fun, snarky, alpha teen queen, and she only got better when they gave her that midriff costume redesign after she came back from the dead. Though I do also like her look in that one New Mutants Annual where Art Adams draws her in a bikini for the entire issue.

 

[vonbek]

so, part Bug Report and part EIL5

BUG : not near machine to grab the logfile but any time you ask Rogue for BJ/Deepthroat while she's wearing garter and stockings it bugs out after loading thefirst position with a pile of dynamic asset errors.

EIL5 : so in case I'm missing something obvious

is there really no way to adjust default outfits as you raise stats or at least stop them being used and make them use Custom instead?

asking as some outfits seem to load fine, some characters won't change or ever use customs even with tags set and then you have things like Rogue at 1000/1000 and willing to literally wear a bikiniat the pool then turns up in the one piece in the showers with just you?

Beyond that as someone that played and like RLE got high hopes for this as as folk have already said it's not a reskin, it's a total rebuild and improvement on RLE.

 

[Mutation8888]

Great start to this game. Has a lot of very good potential and I can already see where the MCs power is going in all likelihood. Are there any plans to have divergent paths with the love interests? I get a submission route with Rogue (Rogue is not really a submissive type though, traditional perhaps, but not submissive) and I was actually trying to make the relationship more "normal" where she has more free will instead of just sitting there like a slave waiting to be told what to eat and do. Perhaps a "submissiveness" or "obedience" trait with some girls being more or less easily molded (Try telling Laura what to do and see what happens *snickt* LOL) would help with that.

Clothing bug: When deleting some outfits that you create, the game slows down or freezes and the outfit does not delete (Keeps being used). A restart from that save or earlier save often works to resolve it.

Spoiler: possible Laura bug

So, just played Rouge Like and man, the facial expressions, they are so stiff!
Guess Null Hypothesis really spoiled me with that.

Oh also, whats the usual time between updates?

I've already written a guide to Scottish vernacular just in case she makes it in, and anything I write featuring her, even as a background character, I'm certain I'm going to have to provide a translation guide just to be safe. But you have my solemn word that she'll be muttering the phrase 'ya bunch a' bawbags' under her breath with alarming regularity. Maybe even having 'HAW! YOU!" as her battlecry.

You mean you started with the 60s and went all the way through everything up until the current Krakoa stuff in les than a year?? Christ, that's commitment.

Played it and enjoyed it! Wish they'd just gone full-Persona kept in the actual dating mechanics like they wanted, but whatcha gonna do. And in a similar way, I'll be pushing for the Bachalo costume - yes, it's just thigh-high boots, leather hotpants and a leather sleeveless halter top but... uh...

...sorry, forgot where I was going with that.

 

[TangerineTango]

Just wanna ask and clarify somethings

1. is there anymore content after the Summer Chapter? or is this where the current build of the game ends? Cause no new mission is appearing on my end. Just wanna make sure if im bugged or this is where the content as of now stops
2. Same goes for the side mission regarding Laura, Rogue and Jean? After what mission does it stop at? I just finished all of there Love Missions, is this where the content stops at as well or should I just wait?
3. Lastly, where's Emma Frost? I remember seeing an old screenshot of her in the game

 

[Nerovagon]

How can i advance the summer chapter? I did all the tasks in the journal but nothing happened.

 

[thundersamaz]

The current build ends at summer. Emma has never been in the game.

 

[TangerineTango]

The current build ends at summer. Emma has never been in the game.

Wait really? I could've sworn there was a screenshot of her in like 0.1. Some people even complained she looked like daenerys targaryen rather than emma frost. Either I'm having a serious case of the the Mandela Effect or something else entirely

edit: nevermind, found the screenshot, probably was just some early game asset or stand in? not sure, never played the early build

caught a bug

 

[thundersamaz]

Wait really? I could've sworn there was a screenshot of her in like 0.1. Some people even complained she looked like daenerys targaryen rather than emma frost. Either I'm having a serious case of the the Mandela Effect or something else entirely

Not Emma tho, it's the chick from game of thrones. She's not in the game.

EDIT: I remember asking about her but I don't remember if they plan on doing anything with her tho. Well, not anywhere soon anyways.

 

[Marlon Brando's Eyes]

Can someone explain to me where the hell the cheat menu cause I must be one dense idiot to not find it... :/

 

[Deleted member 2797587]

Genetics being what they are, I always imagined that any daughter/clone of Logan would be hairy as fuck.
The sheer amount of time it would take her each day to shave just seems impractical.
That bare midriff should display a dark treasure trail snaking up from the depths, charting a course from navel to pussy to anus.
How I long for a game in which high quality art assets depict Laura's pits and muff as gloriously feral, untamed patches of thick, straight fur.

Her bush is pretty noteworthy in this game, if dialed into the 'hairy' setting for pubes, which she is set to by default. But I absolutely agree that, especially for Laura, the 'hairy' setting would benefit strongly from a pits/treasure trail/bush/butthole combo of furry delight.

That was an art asset from an old testing batch. I had discovered it before this version of the game had launched and checked with the Dev team about it. Went back and found where I had saved that version and checked and confirmed. She wasn't coded to do anything but stand there.

And there is no use in porting her back into the game because has virtually no art assets except for standing or character interaction files of any sort. Even her character profile file is so out of date that she can't be brought in via console without essentially building a new one from scratch.

 

[itsfickfuckthings]

is there really no way to adjust default outfits as you raise stats or at least stop them being used and make them use Custom instead?

asking as some outfits seem to load fine, some characters won't change or ever use customs even with tags set and then you have things like Rogue at 1000/1000 and willing to literally wear a bikiniat the pool then turns up in the one piece in the showers with just you?

Beyond that as someone that played and like RLE got high hopes for this as as folk have already said it's not a reskin, it's a total rebuild and improvement on RLE.

In the outfit settings there is something (a eye-symbol) where you can disable default outfits.

 

[ShinyBoots1993]

One more thing, i dont suppose pregnncy could be a thing eventually?

like a sort of result of finishing inside a lot?

it strongly suggests that is not in the plans, at least in the near term.

Oh thats fine, i kina want it for way far in the game when the characters have gone through lets say, many stories/adventures etc.

Pretty much. The discussion is still ongoing. A lot of people seem to be in favor of it happening after the planned stopping point in the timeline due to the chaotic nature of the X-Men's daily lives. By that point things do begin to slow down for the girls.

expanding the 'slice of life' aspect with various random scenes

We plan on including some more random events but if you want to mod in a bunch of life sim events that makes the game more alive, we'll support the effort.

There's a lot of small stuff that would be neat that we simply don't have the time for if we want to get more substantial story content out there.

damn there's a lot more in this update than i thought there would be, kudos to the dev team

Thanks!

more interactions between the girls.

In the works.

Clothing bug: When deleting some outfits that you create, the game slows down or freezes and the outfit does not delete (Keeps being used). A restart from that save or earlier save often works to resolve it.

Have you updated to the latest version?

Oh also, whats the usual time between updates?

Haven't decided yet. We've gone with "When it's ready."

I remember asking about her but I don't remember if they plan on doing anything with her tho. Well, not anywhere soon anyways.

Probably not.

Can someone explain to me where the hell the cheat menu

We don't have one.

each day

EACH day? That's a tad excessive.
