Ren'Py The Restaurant [v0.2.3] [Xell]

[xell_]

One of my favorite games without a doubt, I love the mother-daughter complicity, eagerly awaiting the new update.

I can't wait to release this either. I'm anxious but also hyped. I hope it will be a good update. I've done my best with the visuals, but you will see a big difference in quality as you progress through the missions because I learn new things while doing it. When it comes to graphics, I'm obsessed and very critical. I want to present my characters in the most realistic way possible. And most importantly, they have to look beautiful, no matter the camera angle or the situation they're in—that's an absolute rule I never break. Now it's time for my writer, Nap, to work his magic and make the script as perfect as possible.

Valeria's locations are done (I may add a few more). I’ve started working on Zoey's locations now and have already finished a few.

Plot twist: that was rendered with a 1050Ti.

This reminds me, I really need hair like this for her. I hope someday someone creates hair like this.

Is it just me, or does that look like a goblin version of Valeria?

I'm currently experimenting a little with “Gigapixel AI.”
It's interesting to see what this program is capable of.

Valeria vs Homless 8K

looks great! even tho i personally am a zoey fan guy. (and i like the busty brunette but some of the new girls look very sexy too)

question: the gigapixel ai how did you do that? i went on the site and it looked weird to me... also not like a site which allows porn. how did you played around it?

xell_ i really liked this game when i first played it over a year ago. (mother face is so pretty (sexy AI voice) and zeoy is so hot and busty (love busty girls) and her scene with the landlord was hot wish it would have been even more intense and longer ) question tho: i read you changed things and added stuff in the changelog but when i install it i can't really play beyond the content i already played back then. i zoey had the scene with landlord and in the school gym. thats it. also new girls mentioned didn't got introduced. did i miss something? i checked the version and it should be up to date or will the new content update come?
btw still think the hat on "mr.white" looks a bit hilarious and what teacher wears a hat during work? :-D but i look forward to his scenes with zoey since i saw some hints. heheehhee

THANK YOU! So many devs don't get this and just have their models in scenes that is really unflattering to get through the scene for whatever plot they're trying to progress. Having them look good no matter what is part of the fantasy. The very best looking games have this same mindset. Looking forward to the update!

Thanks man, I totally agree, Valeria is really amazingmy last update was around 6 month ago, but yeah i'm still working on it, you're not missing anything yet, my new girls will showup in v0.2.4

I know exactly what you’re saying because I’ve played a lot of games before. A big part of this job is teasing. There are games that don’t add any sex scenes, yet they get an incredible number of fans, just because they know how to do it. But if the models don’t look amazing, I don’t even bother reading the story or any text at all, I just use gallery mode, and that’s it. And I have a feeling I’m not the only one thinking this way.

Adding too many sex scenes isn’t the solution either, because you can’t make your characters some random slut right away. That would be betraying those characters. Not just that — when players see everything they want, the game loses its uniqueness. I kind of made that mistake with the Raymond/Zoey dream part. But of course, you have to add sex scenes, even if it’s not exactly how the players want. I don’t like nonstop slow-burn games. I think players deserve to see some good stuff one way or another.

Looking at the bigger picture, this is actually a good thing for the game. If something is being made in the entertainment industry, it either has to be perfect or not exist at all — that’s how I see it. Effort needs to be put in. With a little love, everything gets better.

nice game

Thanks man

Hi, everyone. Need a bit of help here. Could you give some tips where to find gallery images #64, 65, and 66? I can't see flickering objects to open these images.

Hello everyone! These past few weeks, I’ve faced quite a few setbacks, but I’ve kept rendering and moving forward. My only goal is to give you the best game I possibly can and bring it to the top. Of course, I’m keeping my feet on the ground. I know I’m still far from that point, but I’m determined to get there.

Last week, out of nowhere, my writer Nap decided to quit two months before the release. I wish him the best of luck (he’ll need it) and thank him for everything he’s done so far.

Right now, I’m working with

, and I really like her progress. She writes incredibly well, and I’m confident she’ll deliver some amazing dialogues for you all. We’re still getting used to working together, but things are going great so far.

Harmony is one of my favorite characters in the game, mostly because I have a weakness for cute faces. I hope you’ll like her too. I’m currently working on interactable scenes — they’ll be short stories that give you a better look into the characters’ daily lives. As we get closer to November, I’ll start working on the animations, and hopefully, I can finish everything on time. I’ll let you know if any delays happen.

Take care of yourselves, and I hope you enjoy the video. If you can’t view it, please let me know.

I had it there and it was working, but then it stopped for working for some reason, so I removed the link.

AI music?

It’s not your fault, it’s my stupidity. Yesterday, I uploaded the video 5 times because I realized some effects were missing or not correctly placed in the video.

AI music?

Yes, but it's a specially trained AI for music. The fact is, the AI’s name is Harmony, and this character’s name is also Harmony. I specifically named her that because I love how she sings, and pretty much all her songs are bangers.

What a pity about the writer's resignation! Was he in charge of the script too? .

There's another game that I won't name, based on college adventures, where the writer and creator handed over the writing for part of season two. It was a disaster because it was obvious that it hadn't been written by the same person, and some things didn't connect with season one. Some of the characters even had different personalities.

Best of luck to Veronique, tell her not to forget the loud kisses Valeria gives Zoey on the cheek! .

All scene ideas and everything else have belonged to me since the beginning. He was just following my directions. I usually create around 15 pages of descriptions about how things will happen, and he writes the conversations based on that. My English is okay, but I’m not very creative with American-style casual conversations, and I’m not very creative with dialogues overall. But I don’t want to talk about him anymore; I want to focus on the future instead. So far, Veronique has proved that she’s very capable. I like how she writes. Maybe it’s better for the future of the game. Finding someone reliable is really tough, but I’m glad Veronique showed up and took my burden. We’ll do our best to make the script as good as possible. I don’t want to release something that isn’t perfect anyway. One way or another, I’ll find a way. But for now, Veronique is doing great. I hope she continues, and we work together for a long time.

Yes, some of the best games here were written by women !

For my part, I've reached the open world and the third mission, but I haven't been able to play for over a week. As soon as I finish the content, I'll write a long review here.
I've been noting down several bugs (mostly visual or minor ones) and some performance issues and FPS drops, but I like the humour of the game .
