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

[Knight]

reading that just threw me back 25 years to the times when sound cards were a big thing... and could cause so many issues with games.
anyone else here remember the good old Soundblasters?

View attachment 3586112

I do, they were all shit. Soundblasters are still technically around but the tech is largely obsolete.

The integrated sound chips realtek makes for motherboards blow them out of the water and dedicated external DACs blow those out of the water. Internal high end sound cards were always gonna die out since they were originally created to offload sound processing from the CPU in an era where sound processing was actually a taxing workload for even high end CPU's, which became unnecessary with advances in CPU power and software.

Second, as GPU's got bigger and needed more power they produced more EM radiation as a result, this messed with the analog outputs from the soundcards since they often sat right next to the GPU. Even modern mobo's have to isolate PCB layers for sound output, just making the DAC an external device solved the problem for the high end rigs and for low end internal DACs and amps were enough even with the added distortion.

Modern DACs have gotten to the point where a $80 one is transparent, works off USB, and can output to any analog amp. There is simply no reason for sound cards to exist anymore.

to the writers/artists. I have an idea for an event for chapter 2 that I wanna run by you. in Fall, you can host a small Halloween party where we can see the various people in different costumes

Jean can be dressed as Eve from "Invincible" and Laura as Alice from "American McGee's Alice".

Let me know when there is any news about this game.

Literally the previous page has news.

 

[ShinyBoots1993]

Is there an option to have Rogue to be more dominant?

Don't activate her quirk and she defaults to being a switch in the bedroom.

Will each girl have a sub or dom path?

Not a dedicated path. Most girls will be equal opportunity lovers by default. We just haven't finished the art for them being on top yet.

I know it can be frustrating but we're still in Alpha despite the presentation.

Halloween was one of the first "special events" I suggested. We're gonna be doing holidays for each chapter. Chapter 1 may be a bit difficult because it starts in Fall/Autumn but we've stated multiple times that girls will continue to get content in future chapters.

Jean can be dressed as Eve from "Invincible" and Laura as Alice from "American McGee's Alice".

Both of these have been discussed internally on the dev team and among the community in discord. Needless to say it's highly desired.

This makes way too much sense thematically. I'm gonna run it by Ron.

I... don't even know what that'd look like. I'm kinda afraid lol

Yes. Buttholder

You could at least try looking one page back. Or joining our discord for frequent updates.

And then she could explain to everyone she meets that she's not just wearing normal clothes and it's actually a costume. And then after that what a meme is because it's the year 2006 or something.

Yesterday's discussion about soundcards reminded me about the good old times when "alpha" and "beta" had actual strict definitions. "Alpha" meant something strictly for internal use and "beta" meant it was also distributed to non-employees. But that time is long gone and that fact is making me

Yes. @Buttholder

Buttholder is a doomer girl? My assumption was that Buttholder is a man wearing peach-colored cape and eyemask, with long, simian-like arms and hands with very long fingers - for extended reach and extra grip.

Well we were in beta but we had to rework and expand some systems. They're currently not as finished as we want to get everything done before we move onto chapter 2 and add more girls. So we rolled back to Alpha simply for state of the game.

The TL;DR is that we ran out of internal funding and needed external funding to continue the project.

Thankfully our community believes the abundance of stuff that is in the current build is worth Patrion dollars.

So far it also seems that most people are understanding of us wanting to get systems operating at 100% before we go on layering more story and girls on top of unfinished systems.

Game development is hard. Especially with the systems we're working with.

No Buttholder is what you assumed. The doomer girl is his girlfriend.

Have we gotten any sneak peaks into what sort of kinks future characters might have?
Like Jean is into the whole sis/bro thing and Laura being protective of MC. They all fall into some variation of a sub/dom kink. Will future characters have similar kinks or different one ?

 

[Friendlyzones21]

This game look interesting

 

[fapderp11]

What's the difference between hero and exercise outfits?

No specific sneak peaks, but we want to have tons of variety in the quirk department. While future characters may also have a variation on the sub/dom stuff, no two girls will be the same, and that's why each girl will have 2 specific aspects to their quirk. Like Jean is big sis + dom, a future girl could also be dom but combined with something else.

I know I joke about her being stereotypical in so many ways, but that's just mean...

A little preview that RonChon made available on Discord

RonChon:Trying to get more previews! here's a WIP: a selfie you'll be able to receive in-game from Rogue. We still have a few rounds of rendering to get through, and the final version of the game will eventually have a simple bespoke background to complete the "mirror selfie" aesthetic, but we thought you might like to see the character art process

Uncensored preview available on Patreon and the final version will be messaged to subscribers with access to preview the art

... Give it up for anachronisms? Unsure on how to feel on this one.

It's not a joke, I can read you like a book.
