Is there a path without Astrid???
When I first wrote the story, and then decided to try and create a visual novel from it, it was purely meant to be a kinetic novel. As this is solely a one-person operation, and with also using inferior hardware, creating multiple paths for characters didn't seem practical. Also, being my first attempt at doing this, with my lack of knowledge and experience, I wouldn't have been confident enough to even attempt it. Saying that, it kind of ties in with my comment below...
The only thing I didn't really like was that the MC turns into a playboy, with whom all the girls he meet fall in love with.
I'd rather have the story and relationship focus on a few of the main girls rather than the harem.
As with the story, there will also be characters not to people's liking. So, while putting the story into a VN format, it gave me the opportunity to embellish the original story, adding more potential encounters. Apart from some early scenes with Deb, all other sexual content is purely down to the reader's personal choice. They have the option to say no.
okay almost all caught up, as a gag/comedy game this is fun I would give it an 8/10, everything else is from 2/10 to maybe 5/10, the renders are about 8/10 so far, seen worse but also seen better.
My main aim always has been to learn the whole process of creating a VN, and for me personally, to enjoy it. The only other goal, or hope really, was that a few others may enjoy the story and have a few laughs along the way too.
Side note totally unrelated this is the first vn to show how digusting some women can be in public restrooms. Anyone who has ever had to clean them for work knows its truly disturbing vile how some do. As having worked through high-school as a custodian I respect the brave choice to show that ugly truth
Yes, it literally was toilet humour. And while I implore people not to take the story seriously, as it in no way reflects "real-life" at all, there are still a few things based on reality.
The public outcry after that update was that most people wanted it to be a joke and didn't want her dead so I don't know what you're talking about. You could say that he may have caved to pressure actually.
The story has been, and will continue to be, based on the original version I first wrote. As I mentioned previously, turning it into a VN I've added some extras, but overall, it will stay as close to how I intended it to be. I did change it from a kinetic novel to a more traditional visual novel after the release of v0.01a, and that was due to comments made. And while there are still no greatly differing paths, it has helped me learn a lot more. I'm thankful for that advice.
How often is this one Update? I was at the Patreon page and it said something about 0.11a being released after a walk in the park? Does that mean it on a tighter release timeline that the standard month to month?
I aim for a twelve-week turnaround for each update, it's currently around ten-weeks. I try to add a decent amount to each update, so it is also dependent on finding a suitable place to end each one.
