If i read these messages i see people downloading porn for the porn and downloading porn for the story.
Lol this is unironically me, If i see some good porn I get invested and want them to get some development and live a happy life, but whenever I'm watching/reading/ playing some sfw media theres this hypersexual part of me thats like "Okay but can I see them fucking?"

The ending changes depending on how you play the game. It's really just the choices you make during the scenes, not the business sim part. It's a weird game for sure, on one hand, the narrator tries to make you feel bad for hooking up with the girls but then if you don't it calls you a pussy or straight up says that since you will only hold the girl's hand he won't even bother making a render for it.
I believe thats suppose to Fernandos internal monologue with some meta jokes thrown in. Actual commentary by story anon is usually quoted in persona character such as in one of the joke hires and his in person appearances in OoT.

Listen I'm all for having a bad ending for going the Corruption route, and a good ending for going the Love/Friendship routes, but at least fucking actually make a Love/Friendship route. Pretty much all of the choices in this game are "Have Sex? (Y/N)" and the "No" option is always just the girl looking sad or disappointed and saying "Oh ok bye then"
I think we have to take in context that this project is just a side story to Out of Touch. There is really only a villainous corruption route because it's canon and this is the story from one of the universes villains. My critique is more for that, there really shouldnt have been choices at all perhaps, more a pure VN like OoT, also as far as I'm aware Tropical and Gloria don't really factor much into the story of OoT, just small connections, though I suppose now that this project is completed, it may become a bigger part of the story whereas before would have been spoilers.

Edit: also might have missed it but did Mio admit if she knew that Fernando and gloria weren't blood related? Because if she didn't that really makes her seem less powerful and makes the ending even worse......since she can track down a cloning machine but not do a fucking bloodtest for her employees (gloria and mom admit that would show the truth) :KEK: please guys try to defend this one
Mio had no reason to believe you weren't half siblings. And she had no reason to even think on it until MC unlocks her incest kink mid sex. Also Mio even states her biological intel comes from investing in tropicali's medical industry/corruption without privacy laws, neither of you grew up on Tropical so she has no reason to have access to your medical records. Also she didn't "track down a cloning machine" she followed up on the hotel owned by the shady rich dude her friend was obsessed with to try to find answers to what they were doing. Turns out it was a cloning machine. If she had known or been looking for it she probably would have checked the basement sooner.


Also personal crackpot theory: Gloria's mom is lying, they are half siblings, shes lying to give Gloria that extra push to conceive a child with Fernando to make absolutely sure neither Gloria (or her) get cheated out of the resort money. Technically Gloria can be said to have already sold her share, and as Mio points out all it takes is a few shady judges to steal an inheritance. But Fernando if not legally can be emotionally manipulated into keeping Gloria around with a pregnancy. She even says she learned how to push his buttons before puberty. Hell this is even what she did to the dad, can't ditch the mistress if she has your firstborn. Whether she's right and Fernando is the type to at least do right by his bastards like his father is up to interpretation.

Does anyone have a folder with all the animations/image files? Previous releases usually had them in the game/images/animations folder but it seems like it was removed for the final version.

And you're making statements without knowing at all.
I literally played the game, formed my own opinion (the ending was bad and overall plot was somewhat convoluted with the "big twists" especially the "Oh!, it's not REALLY incest" thing), saw numerous feedback beyond that of the dev's most dedicated supporters.

More feedback, even retarded feedback is still able to give one an understanding of the perception of a game. Being a backer usually results in copium/sunken cost fallacy and gives a much greater bias than someone who isn't financially/personally vested in it.

How do I know this? I backed Twisted World for over three years and not at the minimal tier. Take that however you like. Unlike you who haven't apparently invested in these games financially, I can tell you there is leeway you give a dev for what you personally feel are negative choices for how they develop a game given you backed them due to liking another project or the early builds of the same one.

My issue was the latter portions of the game. They are convoluted at best. If there is supposedly an intent to have two more parts to this game as a series, they are better off just focusing on OOT, a game that does seem decent, and why I played this one.

"Deconstructing" a genre is cringe, and comes across as implied lecturing the of player's tastes that brought their interest to a game in the first place. If he wants to do narrative stories, go for it. This one isn't "awful" but it certainly isn't good. "Mediocre" or "sub-par" suits it best. again, All the best for them on OOT, but this game made me feel like I wasted my time.

Finally finished this one. While the ending was fairly bad, I think reading some of the comments here actually made it a lot easier since I was bracing for the worst. Genuinely appreciate everyone that posted the warnings.

I do think there was a way to pull off this ending, if that's what the dev had in mind all along. The game just did not set up for it properly. Barring one or two scenes, the tone of the game just didn't match. There's way too many purely romantic scenes. If the goal was just to entrap them, you'd think their events would have reflected that. They also made Fernando too inconsistent even in his own private thoughts, as if he himself knew his thoughts existed to fool the audience.

I like playing games where you're playing a bad guy too. But it just didn't feel like you were playing that kind of character up until the very end. Before that he was largely just a horny goofball. He might do insensitive things to get some. But not hurt them for it. Him just completely railroading them at the very end just felt like an ending to a different game.

The incest thing was a complete cop out. For that there was no real excuse or way to do it right, especially after you made the player go through defining the relationship themselves. All around dick move.

Also personal crackpot theory
Not gonna lie I had that thought as well but the twist needed to happen sooner for it to be more accepted I think. Bringing it up basically in the last 10 minutes of a game in which people played it for years hoping for some incest action....well, feeling dissapointed is the only reaction the dev could have anticipated ngl.

There is hope for a Tropicali sequel in which all the critique could be adressed and alleviated but given the whole initial idea of the game and short but (no offense) weird interaction I had with the dev on their discord I doubt this will happen.

Maybe this all a troll narrative but Story Anon hates coomer or coomer behaviour. And the game was a shitpost against them. Simple as is.
If a Tropicali 2 is made then I think it will be more like Tropicali 1. :HideThePain:
