VN Ren'Py The Ruined Bloom [v0.3] [CungDuts]

So… does this mean we’ll have to wait 2–3 years for the dark path now?
I wish you patience and good luck with the project, if that’s the case

Just a friendly note: try not to take every comment here too close to heart. If feedback keeps pushing you to change direction every update, the game might lose the identity it had on day one. Stick to your original vision, the loyal audience will follow, and the haters will eventually move on.

I’ll be honest: I came here for one game and added it to my watch list, but when the next update completely shifted the approach and removed the darker content, I lost interest. For me, consistency matters more than trying to please everyone.

Still rooting for the project, just hoping it won’t drift too far from what made it special in the first place.

Not that long actually, I already gave the Dark NTR patch to all my paid members yesterday. Just wanna wait for their feedback first before releasing it here. I gave the same amount of story progress to the Dark NTR route as the main route.

I just want to separate from the main game so it doesn’t violate any donation platform guidelines (because the story itself is already very close to the limit even in the subscribestar).

And honestly, I actually want to move the trigger for the previous NTR story to a later point when the main story is already much deeper, but a lot of people are already disappointed because I took away all those NTR scenes.

Maybe I will make a poll later here.

Cheating is not the same thing as Netori. Netori is stealing someone else's girl. Cheating also includes NTR.

Lmao, you nitpick one thing to try just ignore how you were blatantly wrong

That's how the cheating tag is used. When there is cheating but it is not the MC being cheated on, because otherwise it would just be tagged netorare. See how simple that is to understand when you just think it through? Once again, I don't care what you personally think of the terms or what they should mean, that's how they are used.

Now say "Thank you for educating me on the fact that there are multiple tags which cover this when I stated there was only one and used that as justification to whinge, I will use them to avoid finding things to complain about going forward"

I was clearly not. The Multiple Penetration probably covers the scenes I've seen in at least 2 games, where a girl puts on a strap-on and penetrates another with the MC. THAT would be a nitpick, because it's not very common.

The sharing one might be correct since I think that's more for swinging, and not something like ffm/mmf. Idk. Idr. Idc.

If the cheating term is used for Netori and never Netorare (which I doubt, but maybe it's because I've seen new devs tag their games wrong a lot?), then that's cool, but I don't understand why they'd do that. It'd be like if I'm looking for squares, so I look for the tag "Shapes" but I absolutely do NOT want to find circles. Cheating very much covers both, so if they use the tags literally incorrectly like that, well no wonder my Autistic ass hasn't figured that out. They're being nonsensical.

Most of the time, I just do a search on a game page and see if the content I don't like is avoidable or not. If it's new, I ask. I get an answer, then I ignore or play. I don't see why you're arguing so much. I doubt I'm bothering many people, but if I am, you can ignore me. Irl, or with the site's options to ignore everything I ever say.

SOME games have the stuff I don't like, but it's optional/avoidable, so I'm happy to play, anyway. I wouldn't see those if I ignored the tags.

Anyway, I haven't enjoyed arguing with strangers online in like 15 years, so I'm done here. Idc if you think I'm still wrong. Idc if you think I'm still nitpicking. Idc if you think I'm trying to drop it because I've "lost." I'm far from the only one and far from the first to complain about the tags. You can search for that and see.

But I get by just fine with how they are now. Have fun.

I noticed quite some changes where made to the VN, is it going become a harem game now? As first Haruka throw her at Yuu, then his so said sister Misaki and on top of that now his childhood friend Shizuki also confess she loves him. Former version felt more choose right and one girl will be your Lover, while others won't.

I'm a bit confused now what direction it going, I read in comments there still be some dark ntr, but feels like that will only happen of mc decline some girl, except for Haruka, she seems somewhat still a slut.

For the normal route, I did intentionally script the story that way from the beginning, because the conflict I want to create isn’t focused on chasing after one girl, but rather on whether the MC can actually maintain a relationship. And Misaki will still play a huge role in every route anyway, since, well, she’s the main heroine.

I'm using an affection point system here, where every choice the MC makes will trigger specific outcomes in the ending later. So even the small choices will give + or - affection points to each heroine.

And the endings that exist right now aren't the 'real' endings either; they're just intermediate outcomes that will show up to keep the main story on track.


As for the dark ntr route, it will still start the same way as before (at the karaoke place), with only small differences in dialogue(with normal route) before reaching the first choice. I’ll probably upload it tomorrow.
