VN Ren'Py Abandoned Tides of Succession [Ch.3 v0.3] [TakMycket]

[TakMycket]

I have a question though, does this lore change affect ToS or Spice Mending, I mean in a matter of scenes or dialogues? Or is it purely a A Prince’s Compass's thing?

This change has no effect on Tides of Succession.

It will impact on Spice Mending, in the sense it creates more branching for me to deal with, as Tides' MC will appear with his chosen LI in Spice Mending. However, the amount of branching in Spice Mending this change causes is much smaller than the amount of branching this change causes in A Prince's Compass.

I also didn't mention this in the dev-log, but I'm planning to change the name of A Prince's Compass... as the MC is no longer guaranteed to be a Prince. Perhaps A Captain's Compass...? I'll brainstorm some potential names and see what I come up with...

Fun fact: Garou (the dev of Shards of the Past), was actually the one who came up with the title for Tides of Succession.

Yeah, I wanted to mention this too, cause from your Dev log based on the ToS ending - MC can be Prince or Lord or... etc
But decided that I have too little info on this matter to judge)

Thats another game I have on my wishlist it seems more and more devs are releasing on steam lately and I'm very excited about it.

Captain's Log 2:2​

The Captain's Log is a day early once again. Had some spare time, and felt like writing it up so I thought why not.

I wanted to come back and post again saying that I appreciate the amount of thought and consideration the dev has put into the feedback that I and others provided. As mentioned, nothing was taken as harassing, but I want to emphasize that I spoke out because I felt passionate about this project already. At its core, the monogamous, branching, and deep story is what has made me interested in continuing to follow this game to begin with. I trust in the large-scale vision that the dev has in mind because it is readily obvious that they have spent a considerable amount of time and dedication towards it, and it shows.

I suppose a better way for me to put this is that I am a huge advocate for little details going a long way. It really sucks when you get so invested in something just to have your immersion killed by something seemingly small or trivial. Its happened to me more than a few times, and I genuinely don't want it to happen here.

Again, the feedback was never about doubting the dev's vision. I hope this doesn't set a precedent where the dev bends to the will of those who want to change the game into something it isn't, because I don't want that. I'm just glad that we can have a discussion over this to begin with and can witness this game be something truly special

Just found and played this today. Here are some of my thoughts.
1. Love the lore and world so far
2. All 3 Li are fantastic so far and that is rare to me
3. A non beta MC is refreshing

I have already wishlisted on Steam and will gladly purchase when available. The vision of VN set in the same world is excellent and very much an improvement on the standard season nonsense currently trending.

I agree the second render of the sequel MC is much better
The change to cannon path idea shows you to be a very thoughtful developer who is not afraid to figure out alternante ways for your dream to succeed, while keeping your vision true so bravo
I added my first sig tonight and love this girl. Only thing that stops my Red head fever is a Blue eyed brunette that is not ghost white.
Thanks for the game and hope you can keep on rolling

 

[stahlblau]

there are so many options and we can only choose one? I get angry when developers do that. Candace, no matter what, you're my number one woman.

First time I saw spice mentioned, I wondered if this was gonna be Dune with water. Glad it's turning out to be way more than that.

Edit- Also bumped into this:

Hey Donors, in the latest leaderboard tally, Tides Of Succession has made it into the top 4. If you haven't already voted, there's only a couple of days left and please consider this one. The Dev has very few patreons compared to some of the other ones and could use the prize to help with producing ToS. And is certainly worthy in my opinion.

Some of you may already be aware, but I came 4th place in the Christmas Contest here on f95, which nets me a $590 prize. Words cannot express how grateful I am. The money is a very nice bonus, but what's even more motivating is the belief everyone has put in me when they voted.

Specifically, I would like to thank MiltonPowers, AlexMpog, averonAveron, Darkdevil66 and the 4 other people who voted for me during that contest. Your support means a lot, and I will repay that faith in the form of quality content .

I was just about to write a congrats post. So congratulations man. I'm glad that you were one of the winners and that you can use the prize money to help with developing ToS. But more importantly the recognition, hopefully, people that didn't know about your game have seen it on the leaderboard and checked it out. Giving you more players and more subscribers.

Looking forward to what happens in the next release. Congratulations again.

 

[diolo]

is simply a very good game so far ... there's no other way to put it

I was just thinking about that... is the whole contest restricted or just the vote? Coz I think the thread is restricted to donoros, so it may not have that much visibility.

I have no regrets voting for you in the contest. Ever since I saw your reddit thread about AVNs, I played yours and Garou24’s and I’ve never enjoyed a game so much before and honestly it raised my expectations towards the industry as a whole. Thank you for making the game and hope the money serves as a motivator for you to keep going!

I was assuming they would announce winners somewhere but maybe not.

I went through all the games being listed and voted for and checked out the ones I didn't know. I didn't find any new ones for me, but I did see other donors making comments they'd discovered new games from the thread, so even 1 or 2 new players would be a start I guess.

good to know, as I just noticed it said restricted, so didn't know what to make of it exactly
