VN Ren'Py The Ruined Bloom [v0.4.0] [CungDuts]

[CungDuts]

This whole back and forth doesn't really inspire a lot of confidence, you know? Either you need to commit to your routes or at the very least communicate clearly what you intend to do.

Right now, you are all over the place and it's no surprise people are pissed.

I have made my decision, and you are free to give whatever feedback or rating you want. I understand that as players, you might not care or understand the struggles from a developer's perspective. I really want to create this game based on my own imagination, but the reality is not that simple. Thank you for your feedback.

Regarding the patch content, it is actually unavoidable because you are meant to lose from the start. To be honest, the main game still features NTR elements depending on your choices—whether it's cheating or ignoring a heroine you're close to, those can lead to NTR. However, it won't be as 'classic' as the content in the patch (you know, the typical helpless and pathetic MC, haha).

When I wrote that first NTR story for the patch, I didn't fully understand what was allowed or prohibited on donation platforms. Right now, I'm still considering the future of that patch. Honestly, the story is too risky because it violates many Terms of Service (ToS).

I think I may have misunderstood but what you’re saying is this if we choose not to have sex with any LI do they end up sleeping with other people directly like they get NTR’d? I’m someone who hates NTR I’m playing this game because of the incest element and knowing that the MC’s potential love interests get NTR’d even if we don’t choose them in that save really leaves a bad impression for my next run. I hope I’m misunderstanding but if I’m not I honestly can’t understand why you made such a decision. You already left it up to the player to choose whether to go with NTR or not in the game

Honestly speaking, no hate, the game IS really good as a said before, but I'm only interested in the NTR aspect of the game, so this decision to split things into different patches doesn't make much sense to me and is very confusing, because I don't know exactly which update I should play or not. So, since 4.0 isn't a Dark Patch, do I even need to play it, or should I wait for the 4.0 Dark Patch? I don't understand why the dev don't do it like any other game and keep the Vanilla and NTR routes within the base game and let people choose which one they want.

It’s more like a Game Over. I will also implement a toggle in the settings so you can turn 'Bad End warnings' on or off for the choices that appear. The main story cannot be completed if the MC 'loses'.

Because the content there violates many policies, and I'm still dependent on donation platforms, I have to comply with the existing rules for now. Once I have my own website, things will be different. I’m not happy about this either, but I have to follow the regulations to keep the project alive. I’m sorry and thank you for understanding.

I understand, but I'm still unsure about what content that would be, incest? If so, wouldn't that also apply to the vanilla version? I know Patreon doesn't accept incest, but aren't other elements present in NTR stories, such as blackmail/grape, etc., allowed? Because I see several games and mangas with these themes and they are all on Patreon. Sorry if i asking too much about everything, can you also please clarify for the NTR part of it if i should always wait for the dark patch so i can be less confused about what i should download or not the new version.

Can someone please share or reupload 3.1 ntr patch as it is gone from links completely now. Wanted to give it a try.

Since I am no longer the owner of this thread, I will not be updating the game here anymore. I am deeply disappointed with how this forum seems to care only about free content and traffic, without any regard for the actual development of my game. (I'm just small developer with 3 paid member, lol). I will continue working on this project, but it will be outside of this forum or through more personal channels (Don't worry, I'm sure someone will upload it here eventually, but it will probably take much longer and you'll only get the bare minimum content ). To those who have loyally supported me, thank you. I apologize, but I will no longer be active here to answer any further questions.

Sorry for the rant, but honestly, I've felt a bit demotivated after what happened.

Thank you for the support. I really appreciated it.

Thanks for clarifying it, i'll keep the base game then, I like ntr, but more the ntr where mc isn't pathetic, those japanese ntr games just make me angry because that. I do love the feeling of losing someone and try fighting for her/him or find someone better. Also a good story is important, just ntr isn't fun if there is no story in it.

Don't let it demotivate you, there always will be someone leaking stuff sadly no matter which game, the only thing people should do isn't encourage them to do so. I been in clinch with such people on other games too, but i don't care what they think of me. I find if you can play the game free, then you need to patience so the dev release it in time he/she has earned enough on it and not steal his/her work.

But I know you can somewhat hardcode things that even they leak something they still can't play it, untill you release it, seen some other devs doing that from patreon. Maybe try get in contact with them how they do it? And keep certain codes that should stay on your pay site only useable on the paying version, but not the public released one. Just some thoughts you could look into.
