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

[Rapeseed]

A side thing our UI guy came up with. You get cards based off girls and the further you get with(platonically or romantically) then the stronger their card is. That's all I really know. I actually don't have info to spoil let alone hand out.
Other than the possibility of guys also being cards.

I really like this idea, can give a real sense of progression, and let DLC come into the base game, hah.

Don't worry you won't have to let Colossus rail you up the ass

Who said anything about having to let him... why even exist if no railing...

Training is usually how you'll learn about what's going on. Like cooling off after a spar you'll hear about an event happening in like the Fantastic Four comic as casual conversation.
Or during a tutoring session you'll be given some super hero history.

That'd be nice.

Well no promises but I do know the dev team will SLOWLY open to welcoming new membership eventually.

Interesting, I imagine the head writer will stay the same? Lots of game lose focus when new members come into the writing team.

I forgot these games have sound and music. I used to play in browser flash porn games and got so tired of hearing those royalty free stuff. So growing up i got used to just muting my computer for porn games.

I don't think I've listened to the sound of pornography in a decade now, there are way too many songs that help with the motions to go back to it.
Not to knock the game down - there isn't a single game in history that does this right because to me it can't be done right - but I imagine I'll be doing the same with Null, turning music down I mean. The hope is that I don't feel like doing it while outside of the sex scenes.

Are there noticeable height differences in this game?

 

[Rapeseed]

Are there noticeable height differences in this game?

Since there is a chance we might get to see our character, I'm hoping we're at least 6'2" and tower over most of the girls - or Wolverine, dude's supposed to be 5'6" isn't he?

 

[Buttholder]

Oh, I thought you pulled that from the comics...

No sir, all my own work! The bit of Laura in the bathroom I mentioned, that's in the comics, everything I mentioned in that spoiler text, that's all from my work, and I'm far from a published professional (unless you count working on a few long-since defunct gaming websites doing reviews and a couple of different columns back in the day and writing in general since I discovered as a child that these grotesque flipper-like things on the end of my arms could do more than pet doggies).

Dude you'd have to be high to think we wouldn't include it at least as a gag if we adapted the story it showed up in.

Fully expecting an easter egg where Kitty's hair turns into a massive puffball because of humidity then. That, or her wearing the weird face-covering mask she had initially in a rapid-fire-costume-change-montage. It wasn't quite a gimp mask, but it's all I can picture when I see it.

I've been asking the same question but our primary artist doesn't like drawing gay sex. Hopefully, we'll find someone who can fill the gap. I'd prefer this thread not get the lesbian tag unless we also can get the gay one as well.

Although no shade to an artist who isn't comfortable drawing something that's an active turn-off to them.

Are there noticeable height differences in this game?

Yes, but there will also be perspective shifts. Some girls have different comfort levels of speaking ranges.

Since there is a chance we might get to see our character

Don't get your hopes up. Maybe in the future though.

Wolverine, dude's supposed to be 5'6" isn't he?

He's a short king.

No sir, all my own work!

... I may DM you some time.

I am currently begging the head dev for that to be her first costume in the game... You know, in case Kitty ever gets added.

But yes I won't allow the crime that modern artists have committed in forgetting that Kitty is capable of having a jewfro be forgotten by our team.

Don't think anyone here'll complain about the lack of gay man sex, people like you and me will miss it tho'.

Perspective shifts... different comfort levels - of speaking ranges...
What?

 

[ShinyBoots1993]

Well, we were discussing the possibility of a female player character once we got the male side of the game finished but I took a stand saying that if we do that, we shouldn't allow a female Null to date women unless we allow a male Null to date men.

The team respected my request.

Characters will stand further or closer to you depending on their perception of personal space. Because of our power, Rogue will be an exception to those who would normally stand further away.

Rogue and Nightcrawler are the closest, followed by Jean, followed by Laura.

I don't agree with the opinion - not because of the lesbo stuff, but on design idealistic view - but I agree with the conclusion. Women should get their men same as we men get our women. Whatever other mixes there is, save 'em for later.

I like that idea, but shouldn't our bro be a little apprehensive about being close to us same as others? Do their perception of personal space change as they get to know us or will that always be a thing? Also, does that mean Laura has some reservation towards us?
Been so long since I heard of our bro tho', how is the progress with him?

Femboy Nightcrawler would be soo hot

 

[ShinyBoots1993]

I like that idea, but shouldn't our bro be a little apprehensive about being close to us same as others?

Nah. Nightcrawler is really chill. The kind of person who'd give you a bro hug or a noogie without being weird about it.

Do their perception of personal space change as they get to know us or will that always be a thing?

Yes, but we'll have to wait for art to come in for the change.

Also, does that mean Laura has some reservation towards us?

Dude you've seen her abs. Even without her super strength, she could snap us in half.

Been so long since I heard of our bro tho', how is the progress with him?

Oh, plenty of stuff. I don't want to spoil you too much but he's basically your culture guide to being a mutant. Go to him if you're confused. He'll also be pissed off if you're too mean to the girls as he was their friend long before you showed up. His forgiveness will most likely depend on if/when* the girl forgives you.

Femboy Nightcrawler would be soo hot

Dude if anything he'd be a twink.

*Team doesn't plan on any fail states but I will say continuously pissing people off will not be fun

Edit: Although pissing people off does lead to some character moments. You just won't be rewarded for sex for you know, saying mean things or cheating.

 

[Deleted member 2871870]

Dude if anything he'd be a twink.

He gives off ' breedable bussy' vibes lol. Dunno why but when I saw Nightcrawler - I just immediately thought he would be a perfect femboy.
Also - aren't twinks and femboys kinda the same thing?

 

[Rapeseed]

Nah. Nightcrawler is really chill. The kind of person who'd give you a bro hug or a noogie without being weird about it.

Bro noogies? Where do I sign.

Dude you've seen her abs. Even without her super strength, she could snap us in half.

Oh, she has enhanced strength? I wasn't aware of that, I just thought she was ripped. She has a nice six pack, but she's still a woman, different frames and all.
Assuming we're not twigs, and her strength is held back by our power... that would be an interesting scenario for my Null, if he's allowed to be either jacked or ripped.

Oh, plenty of stuff. I don't want to spoil you too much but he's basically your culture guide to being a mutant. Go to him if you're confused.

Is he someone who knows a lot about mutants? Shouldn't Kitty be the guide based on how much of a nerd she's portrayed as? Y'know I don't know much at all so please enlighten me.

He'll also be pissed off if you're too mean to the girls as he was their friend long before you showed up. His forgiveness will most likely depend on if/when* the girl forgives you.

I like that, a lot.

Twinks are just slim, feminine-framed man. Femboys are all feminine, hair, clothes, mannerism.
That being said, I agree with Shiny, he'd be a twink, not a femboy.

Okay that makes sense. I don't know much of the terms cuz it's just recently that I discovered I like men too.
Twink or femboy - I just wanna top him

 

[Rapeseed]

Welcome to the team, don't let it get to your head. Beware the terms.

The femboy stuff is kinda cringe, but the want to top is absolutely based.

To each their own I guess. I LOVE femboys - especially the ones in maid costumes. The only thing I find cringey is if they do the uwu anime stuff

In basically every setting (with exceptions like Age of Apocalypse, where everyone was depressed and angry all the time, not without good reason), Kurt's the kind of guy who'd be having a bad day and make it his mission to make everyone else feel better because it'll make him feel better. He's the kindest, genuinely nicest guy on the team and he's always willing to believe the best in people, even those who've betrayed him - his mother is Mystique for fuck's sake, and every time she gets involved in something, his reaction is still 'trust but verify and wait for the twist'. And she's legitimately tried to kill him multiple times.

Oh, she has enhanced strength? I wasn't aware of that, I just thought she was ripped. She has a nice six pack, but she's still a woman, different frames and all.

Not enhanced, exactly, she's strong in the same way Wolverine is, she's just insanely well-trained - like Logan, she'd be at the top-end of 'baseline human' in terms of physical prowess, if that makes sense, more Batman (peak human) than Captain America (artificially-enhanced human). She's way more agile than he is though, he's a brawler, she's a hit-and-runner, he's strength, she's agility, so her having an athlete's body makes sense.

Is he someone who knows a lot about mutants? Shouldn't Kitty be the guide based on how much of a nerd she's portrayed as? Y'know I don't know much at all so please enlighten me.

Kitty's a tech nerd as opposed to a science nerd. She'd be able to help program one of Beast's science gizmos, but in terms of understanding what it does, she'd probably be lost. Like the difference between being able to understand HTML tags for forums and building a website from scratch.

So Kurt's a "science nerd?"

 

[Buttholder]

'Social butterfly', like Logan, he knows everyone, ever, but unlike Logan, he's also on good terms with them. Beast is the science nerd, along with folks like Forge

 

[Crichton]

Nocturne looks good. I wanna top dudes too but not in this game. Ya'll write a lot so I skimmed and didn't really follow the convo. I'd leave the dudes for a fanmod.

 

[ShinyBoots1993]

Y'all got chatting and answered each other's questions so I don't have much to add.

Assuming we're not twigs, and her strength is held back by our power... that would be an interesting scenario for my Null, if he's allowed to be either jacked or ripped.

She was also trained to be a world-class assassin BEFORE her mutant abilities manifested. Null is meant to be an everyday guy. Whether you role-play him as a confident jock, a frightened nerd, or a pissed-off delinquent, he's still a normal dude straight out of high school in his freshmen year of college.

Being jacked means nothing if she can easily use your weight against you with Judo or other styles that use grappling and tripping techniques.

And she's legitimately tried to kill him multiple times.

I think he's the least dickish character even in the worst timelines.

But yeah considering he's willing to forgive people for attempts at murder, he'll forgive you for hurting his friends' feelings if they do.

I'd leave the dudes for a fanmod.

My man, if someone could replicate the art style for dudes and put it out at a pace matching how quickly we get girl art, I'd be the first person to bring them onto the team.

Welcome to the team, don't let it get to your head. Beware the terms.

Also this.
