Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.8c] [Ron Chon]

[JustCallMeSteve]

Looking at the harem angle, my boy Null better learn how to clone himself otherwise is gon be tuff...
15 girls all wanting some action gonna be hard to manage but that is a sacrifice my Null is willing to make.

Depending on future minor mutations that increases stamina, as well as how taxing the vitality consumption is on those it is subjected to and how efficient it is, Null may be able to handle the 15 through semi frequent breaks with cuddling Laura with the vitality drain active, without needing clones.

At least from a perspective of Null physically being able to handle it.

From a perspective of time management however, it is most likely a different story.

Has anyone done work for Xavier 100x? For that one and level ones I'll just put on Paul Stanley's "Live to win" and see how far I can grind.

Also, I hope that for the "have x amount of romantic partners" they continue doing the Halo killstreak naming convention

Up next for ch2 would be Overkill, Killtacular, and Killtrocity.

I know some of these achievements were designed with a grander game length involved, but I kinda wish they hadn't been added in yet so I could avoid my crippling need to complete every list I see. My brain understands finish X over course of Y. Unfortunately Y is very short right now.

Hey unlike Tod, we deliver on advertised content and we don't expect you guys to fix our bugs for us.

15 girls all wanting some action gonna be hard to manage but that is a sacrifice my Null is willing to make.

There's been discussion of putting a timer in between when girls message you. So they all won't spam you at once.

Gotta repopulate those mutant numbers somehow.

I mean considering event names like "Mutant Massacre" and "M-Day" I'd assume an effort should be considered.

I'd like to take a moment to point out that these improvements are the reason saves were broken, and they're also the reason why your saves broke for Chapter 1. Imagine if we were in Chapter 3.

People really wanted to ride our asses over the save breaking thing but you can find a dozen other games on this website who break saves almost every update.

Us doing 0.9 and 1.0 to add in all this stuff is the primary reason you won't have to get a new save every update and why modders won't need to remake their entire mod with each update.

We love you guys more than Bethesda does.

I don't want to sound like an ass kiss, but I don't mind starting from scratch. While, yes, the game does take a lot of effort to get back to the moment you were at if you finished all achievements before, I do find it generally enjoyable to replay from the beginning and try to achieve the total upgrades in an easier way.

Plus, there are enough scenes that have been added to make it worth restarting anyway.

Every update, I always start from the beginning. I will probably stop doing that when we reach chapter 2. That how much i love this game

Too late.
I'm joking.

Yeah this is the reason why everyone who asks for a save gets looked at funny.

Though while I'm here. I'm not sure why that question gets asked so often because from research done for our game, games with galleries are actually in the minority.

The most popular one I can think of is Summer Time Saga.

Oni's Rogue Like doesn't even have a gallery.

The only benefit to galleries, is knowing whether or not the player has unlocked all scenes, which isn't necessarily an issue with a sandbox game like Null anyway.

Especially as all scenes are repeatable.

Im studying the blade...those wenches will not drain my Null of his mana.

A sword needs a sheath, or in this case several.

Edit: fun fact, the Latin root for penis comes from the word for sword and the root word of vagina comes from the word for sheath.

Oh, please? Pretty please?. I am already annoyed with just the three messaging me all the time, I can't imagine once we get to the full stack. Maybe lean into the group chat more?

One of the bigger frictions is the navigating the phone bit, with this volume of messages, it feels like too many clicks (I know it's only three, but they add up fast) and animations to get to the chat. If I get a message, let me just click one button to get there and answer it, somehow. Maybe a little square with the face of the girl who messaged me I can click on, that slots in under the phone button (or beside it like the quick travel buttons) and as each different girl's messages build up, their headshots queue visibly up to a certain number at once?

I'll throw this at the devs.

 

[The_Man_With_No_Name]

Yeah we wanted to have something for achievement hunters but it's only things that those people specifically would be into.

Only reason I bother is that achievements give gameplay buffs so I feel a drive to do them.

We love you guys more than Bethesda does.

You see that Mena Ngai mountain in Wakanda? You can climb that.
Endless mutant PR nightmare quests.
Realistic racist npc anti mutant dialogue.
Krakoa settlement building.
It.Just.Works.

 

[The_Man_With_No_Name]

What version did these guys get added? Chance based so maybe I just got unlucky before. Gave me a surprise jump in the Danger Room.

Hey can someone tell me how to get Rouge or Laura to be friends Jean so I can go for the harem because so far I only got Laura and Rouge to that level but not those two.
