VN Ren'Py Abandoned The Sister in Law [v0.05] [Tripod]

[SinCityLocal]

Tripod70, haven't seen anything from you since 0.05. Are you still with us? Can we expect more of your delicious and raunchy imaginative productions, or am I going to have to put this wonderful (but unfinished) novel in the archives with the other unfinished works of possible GOAT authors?

We’re all anxious, but the guy is having a bad run with his health. Nothing will further this project if his health doesn’t improve.

I was also curious about the slow progress, so I checked his Patreon message from May 2024. It appears he had to recover from a lightning strike and deal with eye issues. It never rains, but it pours, right?

I hope 2025 is kinder to him. I really enjoyed this game.

As I've said before on another thread:

Yet another reason becoming a Developer is a bad Idea, Fires, Monsoon's, Floods, Heart attacks.
Insurance companies are gonna start adding "Are you a developer of any form of AVN or Adult games?"

Joking aside, Wishing tripod70 All the best.

Did you try the 2 discord sites?
Last post on patreon was May 2, if we go by the rules then this should get the abandoned tag.

No nothing. It doesn't look good does it?

Last I read, the Dev was ill but that's the last I heard about them.

Seeing that he mentioned being quite senior several times in this thread I - to quote Han Solo - have a bad feeling about this I'm sorry to say

I would DEARLY love to be proven wrong!

 

[ImperialD]

i agree it seems my post was the last one on his discord site .... back in march this year ... hoping for the best for him .... i'm old as well and understand what he meant ..

 

[krapsp3044]

I tried to contact via his name Tripod70 on this site over a week ago and got no response so it looks like he is not going to finish this

Pretty sure sister in law isn't considered incest...

I know this is a very late reply but I couldn't help but notice they removed the tag.

Yet if it's "step sister" which is the SAME THING but with different roles, they might throw a definition at you from a law book on why it's considered incest and the tag stays. lol

I think it was there because there's some near-sister play that implied eventually there would be some sister play, but at this point ...

First and foremost. The behind the scenes, and sad long over due news.
We were working on getting to a sort of wrap up early last year when things took a turn.
As the story is based around actual events in the life of the MC ( My friend and collaborator ) Who kept the story events mostly inline, and straight. Also filling all of the gaps that I had forgotten or had remembered way out of sequence. I know most of the events but not in order. Not that it is in any real order as it is.. But early April of 24. We lost the "Becky" character to a long time disease. That coupled with also loosing "Brenda" just a few months before in November to cancer. In the last 16/18 or so months he doesn't really want to talk about it ( About the story ) much at all. The middle girl "Deb" had moved out of state several years back and most contact slowed down a little after that. Needless to say with the loss of his wife and friend of over 35 years. He took it really hard. As did I.
I was recently asked if I would return to work on SIL. Well the answer is.
It is totally unknown at this point.. My depth of field is mostly shot due to the Macular in my left eye, and they keep finding stuff to scan, and supposedly treat with this and that meds that I don't think do anything.. ??
However:
I have thought about putting together a wrap up update that would include up to where the girls kind of went their own ways when the middle sister "Deb" moved out of state for a job. My biggest issue is working on the graphics in DAZ to work that up. It is really hell to not be able to focus on what your working on graphics wise. Plus starting to have a bit of double vision after a really short time of it. All in all and in short; getting old sucks... No promises, but I am thinking about it.

 

[Elhemeer]

Sending condolences.

If the graphics become too unwieldy, maybe you can have a wrap-up chapter as just a little novelette with just a few static images, 5-10, that are spaced out as the text rolls along.

Anyway, sorry to hear about so much loss for you.

First and foremost - glad to hear from you!

As you might have read quite a few folks were worried abt your well-being.
So seeing that you're still with us is a major relief! So most important stuff first - take care of yourself and (hopefully) get well (or at least better) soon!

Of course continuing / working on the VN would be most appreciated by all of us but we also understand this might be really hard on your eyes.

A suggestion if I may?
How about preparing at least an epilogue / wrap up kinda text so in case you don't feel like / cannot finish it in the traditional way there'll at least be closure to the story?

And I'm sure that even if you couldn't provide more than a bareknuckles plain text some other author-dev might be willing to lend a hand… We need to stand together so your work wasn't in vain

So kindly and respectfully paging e.g. Tlaero and Rich - devs I respect immensely and that have shown to be very decent and caring fellow humans.

DUDE I am just glad you are OK, sad to hear about the friends



Anything after this is bonus and appreciated but no worries if you got other fish to fry you know.

NGL that planned epilogue with everyone going their own ways sounds terrible and if that's the case I'd rather not have it lol. I want to see all the girls stay with the MC.

That's the problem with "based on real events" stories.

But I want to see/read how the story ends ... I guess we kinda already know the "And then they ..." epilogue though.
