Ren'Py Three and One: The Cursed Mansion [v0.26 Public] [Man from icecream van]

[man from icecream van]

What led you to the decision of making your MC look like a sissy twink?
It is really off-putting to look at his feminine body and poses.
Is this meant to enforce the fact that he is a loser and looks like a loser, though you mentioned in another post that you changed your mind and decided not to make him a cuck dipshit. I am really intrigued as to why, in spite of the aforementioned info, you still came to the decision of making his appearance so "unmasculine". I know that he wasn't the biggest chad in his earlier years, which may be why he was bullied then. But people change, so at least make him look like an ordinary guy.

Actually, I'm not even trying to create a character that everyone will like (is that even possible?).
He looks like an 18-19-year-old teenager because that's exactly what he is. A man starts looking like a real seasoned guy after 30-35 years. This game is not about a seasoned man.


You won’t be seeing him often anyway. Only on the transition screen (which is a temporary solution — I’ll replace it with something else later). The only thing that will remain is the mirror in the bathroom.

Who the fuck was thinking that moving boxes was fun, really, when the second time happened i just quit that game, i love the girls and the sex but making me moving boxes for no reason just kills everything.

I am really impressed with your work. I love how natural all the characters feel with their own personality and not like another standard porn character. The dynamic between the girls alone is something you rarely see done so well.

I can count on one hand the games with a male character as good as Ian. If you told me that the next episode would only be between MC, Helena and Ian, I would be very happy.

You have so many turns you can take with the story, which is really refreshing. You said yourself, why should the girls work so that MC can leave with them. You can even have one girl turn on the others as a twist.

On to the things I don't like:

Why should MC believe in the Pusher? He is not there when the effect happens, there could be no effect at all and MC would not know it. There should be a scene where MC sees the effect or benefits from it. Zoe could just get lucky with her tips...

Why does MC tell Bianca about the Pusher? There is no reason to tell her.

Finally, I understand about the raw packs, but it hurts the game. You have this scene that some might find erotic (I don't like bondage, tentacles or NTR, and I'm still here...) and then this kind of popup, it just feels cheap. Put it at the beginning or the end, but not after a scene.

I hope there are some scenes for people like me who like to corrupt their girls and have fun with them without bondage, tentacles or other guys. Anyway, keep up the good work! Again I am really impressed.

About the Pusher—MC doesn’t really believe it works the way Ian says.

Telling Bianca or not — that’s a choice you don’t have to make. The Pusher isn’t a key element of the game, but it can be used in the main story (not just in scenes where we make the girls more open—or the opposite. The Pusher can also be used to block unwanted actions from a girl, if needed).


The spam screens look clunky and will be improved. I didn’t give them enough attention, so right now they look like marketing from 2005. This might get reduced to just a small notification.


The girls’ corruption level tends to increase from actions in the bar.

But this corruption won’t help MC get any of them into bed. What matters for us is the relationship level with the girl.

Do these 31 photos take place in the game world and we just don't see them? Or are they like fan art and don't happen in the game world?

fun art
upd: really fun

 

[man from icecream van]

I enjoy this game so much. I'll be supporting it on Patreon
I just hope NTR is avoidable, although I'm also an NTR fan, I prefer NTR to be avoidable. These three girls are extremely hot, and I'd love to have some fun with them myself
Great game!

NTR can be avoided. It will be somewhat difficult and unbalanced in terms of content at first (basically, you'll be skipping all the fun until you romance one of the girls), but it’s a way to get something that others won’t be able to.

How do I fix this?

Strange. It says that the file map_idle (the world map background) is missing, but it's not located at images/map_idle — it's in the folder images/map/map_idle.


I moved the map files into a separate folder because the number of them increased (from 2 to 8) due to the addition of different times of day.


Try rolling back to a point where the game was working. Save the game there, fully restart it, and then load that save.

Don't use old saves.

Who is a milf? Who is she?

Helena - she's not an LI, but she is lewdable.

Can you romance all 3 of the girls?

 

[MiltonPowers]

Can you romance all 3 of the girls?

Sort of, you can got for a FWB type thing with all 3, but I doubt they're going to willingly share you if you're romancing them (and there's no harem tag).

 

[man from icecream van]

Can you romance all 3 of the girls?

We won’t be able to get a classic harem here. Even though the girls have a corruption scale — and it can reach the maximum for all three — that corruption isn’t for our benefit. If you manage to max out a relationship with one of them, the moment she finds out you’re sleeping with another, the MC goes straight into the friend zone for the rest of the game.

I just started and get this, only downloaded it 15 minutes ago. The only choice so far is to help or not help with the bags, I chose not help.

EDIT: I started it again and picked help with bags. More dialogue but same error first time trying to leave the room.

 

[man from icecream van]

Yep... I reproduced the issue. It happens on a fresh save right at the start of the game.
I’ll fix it now.

I HAve this problem here too
And I started new game, no old saves here

 

[SharkVampire]

Yeah, the last release was quite buggy. When I loaded my old save from version 0.15, Tori's face kept popping up in the message window during transitions. I decided to start the game over, and then I ran into another issue—a black screen after I agreed to carry girls bags. No idea what you were doing with prologue, but now it's broken.

Anyway, I went back to an earlier save, before Tori's first shift, and managed to avoid that constant portrait issue.

Now, about my thoughts on the latest update: I feel like we're playing a sort of "pimp simulator" now, with all the "pusher" stuff and everything that happens in the bar. I remember the dev talking about the mansion and stuff that's going to happen there, hopefully it'll be better because right now it's kinda boring. It would be nice to have one or two main villains trying to steal the girls instead of them just becoming prostitutes. The sandbox aspect feels redundant, as I had already imagined it, and that horrendous box carrying "mini-game" is just frustrating and doesn't really add anything to the game. It’s neither fun nor interesting.

P.S.
Zoe is definitely the best girl in terms of looks and personality. Who would want to pimp out such a cutie?
I’ll wait for future updates, hoping they improve things.
