VN Ren'Py Twisted Memories [v0.9b] [BaiBai]

[Dogorti]

Development update
Alright, there has been a power outage yesterday which made me lose a few hours of work but I still got done with all the translating and I can tell you, it was quite a lot.

All in all v0.9 will be the biggest update yet by far. With over 3k renders its going to be a good chunk bigger than even v0.7. The high render count might be somewhat attributed to the sometimes maybe a bit unnecessary dialog I mentioned in a dev update before but I actually don't think it turned out that bad and its not like there's a lack of lewd stuff happening either. In total there will be 6 lewd scenes (1 of which might or might not be considered a proper lewd scene, but I do consider it as such), with 4 of them having 2 completely separate variations each (making it a total of 10) with 5 different girls over the whole update. The seduction side of things will also catch back up with corruption in terms of scene count, with v0.9 having 2 seductions scenes that don't have a corruption equivalent.

Anyway, all of this said don't get too excited just yet as the update still isn't finished. I definitely made quite a mess with some of these scenes which kind of comes with these long development times as I do lose track of things I did earlier. In general the biggest chunks of work are done but there are still a few things left to do. I just thought I'll give you some numbers so that you at least know that something big waiting at the end of the tunnel. As always though, I'll keep you updated.

Since viki and julia is the main content of this update therefore they must be the 2/5.
Also, according to the preview alyvia have the high probability be the 1/5, so there are already 3/5.
The remain question will be who are the remain two left?
My guess will be jacky and emily since this update is more focus on the family according to baibai, the other Lis seems hard for mc to encounter them in this update.

Thinking the same. Lola is also a candidate as we saw from the teasers, but she would have to be banged in the bushes as she will be encountered while on the road to Julia's.

According to the previous display may be Lola, after all, four main too many.

 

[HentaiKami]

but why?! why would you want to hurt one of the girls so badly. the def mad it clear that their life w/o the mc would be rather.. unfulfilling. so why not give the girls the best possilbe outcome and enjoy it. it is made very clear that this is cannonicle what the mc is gunning for

Because for some reason people don't want to make everyone happy.

Lola is at the mcs house currently and will likely still be there in the morning. So she's a definite candidate and won't need no bushes. I wouldn't be surprised if she just jumps into the bathroom as mc goes to shower.

Oh, yes, I forgot about that.
So probably this picture is from them leaving together.

 

[abyss_kaiser]

It is very likely that we are going to break Steph's heart also.
She will be very sad when she knows MC is cheating.

Just fuck her harder till her jealousy drains out of her little slut brain, she'll love being a haremette soon enough.

Here is a gallery unlocker, won't work for future updates but it'll work for v0.8. Also fixed a bug where choosing the Stephi dressing room bj/boobjob in the gallery would cause a crash

installation: drag n drop into `game/` folder

for BaiBai if u see this: the bug was "d6s5v2brp" should be "d6s6v2brp"

btw the Stephi beach scene where mc is choking her gets kinda dark tbh, take that as a warning cos I certainly didn't expect it

cannot use this. It just opens the file in my broswer and dragging and dropping just makes a link in the game folder. Can you help me?

Sure: in the post with the mod file, click the file and that should open a new tab. In the new tab, right click to open a context menu and then choose "Save as ..." (wording may be different based on your browser) and then name the file as "galleryUnlock.rpy". After you've downloaded it, you have to move the file into the game/ folder - note that the folder is literally named "game" (sometimes people get confused and put it in the "TwistedMemories" folder instead of the folder named "game")

If the mod doesn't seem to be working then it might've accidentally been saved as a .txt even if you named it as galleryUnlock.rpy when saving. To fix that, you would:
1) right click the file in the folder navigation program
2) choose rename
3) delete the .txt suffix
4) relaunch game

Basically this, since it's an h-game and the MC is pulling a Heel-Face-Turn from an Ugly Bastard to Hentai Protagonist. The only thing in-universe that would raise his power levels even further would be if he got a haircut that obscured his eyes.

Slightly more realistically...exclusivity doesn't mean the same thing to men and women. For men, it's fear of paternity fraud and wasting resources on someone else's nut. It's a necessity in all but a few circumstances. For women, exclusivity is about getting as much attention and resources out of a guy as she can; if 10% of the MC's attention makes her feel twice as good and gives her a life twice as fulfilling as a guy who's loyal, she's going to stay and share.

If the MC slings dick like a Netorare Antagonist, rizzes them like a Hentai Protagonist, pulls in crazy earnings with that potion business, and manages (because plot) to be there for them whenever they need him, then he's not really going to have any competition. Few men can compete with that kind of FrankenChad. Which means, rather than ditch him for some random guy they can monopolize, the girls in his life would try to thin the harem instead. And, as you pointed out, the MC can handle that infighting by whipping out his hammer and nailing the problems.

LMAO, maybe cool it with the mysogynistic framing here. Exclusivity is much more important to women than to men. In a nomadic hunter/gatherer society (where most of the base human instincts come from) if she is heavily pregnant and unable to work and he left for some other women, she's gonna die.

It doesn't matter too much anyway because it's a power fantasy harem game, realism isn't what's important, the characters and story are. Concerning Stephanie I think the biggest hurdle in her harem acceptance yet, are the abandonment issues she has had from her mother leaving. And if she's absolutely sure that he won't leave her no matter what, she won't mind other women. He's already fairly close in seduction route I would say. The corruption route might end up more in the "fuck her brains out" direction, though.

For real though, Mythic Manor and Fates Collide seems to be your best bet.

So, before I answer this, I have to acknowledge this:

It doesn't matter too much anyway because it's a power fantasy harem game

Absolutely correct, thanks for not losing sight of that. Now, back to the thing...

It's interesting that you bring up evolutionary psychology, yet also call my framing misogynistic. Evolution doesn't care about morality, "fairness," or cruelty. Evolution asks one and only one basic question before all other factors come into play: "Will this organism survive long enough to reproduce?"

So when you call my framing misogynistic what I think you really mean is, "You're not allowed to talk about women unless I agree with you." Which is gross. Knock that off. But to engage with the story you're telling, there's an easy way out for this woman: cheat. The genetic record shows that there are half as many male ancestors as female ancestors. Is it also misogynistic of me to know that and point it out?

I went ahead and wrote a lot more out on that subject (evolutionary history/psychology), but remembered that this post has pretty decent odds of getting deleted for being off-topic as it is. So, to keep it concise, here's a few bullet points:
>I do, in fact, happen to think poorly of women as a cohort in many 1st-world nations.
>I happen to think poorly of several cohorts where crime, health, spending, and politics are concerned (and I doubt you're any different).
>Thinking poorly of these groups does not mean I wish them harm or intend to deny them basic courtesy and human dignity.
>I attempt to judge every person that I meet on an individual basis based on the content of their character.

These points, despite claims to the contrary, are not mutually exclusive. The first, despite claims to the contrary, does not make me "one who displays prejudice or looks down upon women," as a quick web search defines misogynist. Just as the last, also despite claims to the contrary, does not make me racist, prejudiced, or bigoted.

Now, to follow your example and make a token effort to discuss the game:

I'm turned off by the loli content. More than personal preference, I think that's a hell of a lot harder to justify in-game than having multiple lovers; if they're in the harem, everyone else in the harem who knows about it is now an accomplice to an act that ranges from criminal to distasteful depending on the legal setting and a few other variables. Sure, it's fictional and everyone is somehow of age (even when indicated otherwise), but it thoroughly disappointed me that "opting out" was really just "we'll skip over this, but it's still happening and people will reference dialogue you never read there later on."

I'd also gripe about romancing family members being as overused as the isekai genre, but incest is kind of a staple in these games. I think it's because devs don't want to make the MC's family members ugly or annoying, and if a character is hot then players are going to want the MC to bang them, but there's a lot of complications in this nascent harem: some characters are related, some are married (unhappily), in relationships (unhappily), and they all want different things out of a partner based on where they are in their lives. For them to be happy with the MC, even in a harem, I think they're going to need some way to tie their daily lives together outside of the odd booty call and the occasional heart-to-heart. As the potion business expands, it might be worthwhile to try and swing some of the girls a job there somehow. It's been a while since I've played, but I may need to run through it again to see what the LIs are interested in--someone might be interested in research, or learning from the old man, while some might be interested in sales, the business, logistics, or management side of things. PR, maybe.

Or maybe I should just shut my brain off and enjoy the renders, animations, pretty backgrounds, and dialogue.

Think they meant Sicae, the other game by the same Dev making My Bully Is My Lover
